PETRILlOS REAL SIZE
Sacramento Bee)

Sacramento Bee)
The musical dictatorship of James
Caesar Petrillo, boss trumpeter of the
American Federation of Musicians, once
again is under fire in congress.
His refusal to permit broadcasts OF
music of high school orchestras from
the National Music camp at Interlochen,
Mich, has brought the demand in some
quarters for legislation which would
break Petrillo's Hitleresque hold over ra-
dio music.
1t is about time someone did something
to reduce the strutting, cocky union pres
ident to his real size. Too long has he
been a observation-disclosures posing as a
semibreve.
1t (the public) should view with pro-
found suspicion resorts to international
corporations which may become lnstru-
ments of secret cOmmitments.-Dr. Hen
ry NJ. Wriston, president Brown Univer-
sity.

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE

(ElSinore Leader-Press)
In the completion of the organization
of the Lake Elsinore, Murrieta and Teme-
cula Chamber of Commerce there has
been brought into existence an inStitu
ton that will rebound to the good of the
whole valley.
In this organization through its board
of directors there are being banded to-
gether men and women of the ability to
carry on in manner that insures sue
cess.
The whole valley is indeed fortunate in
having these outstanding citizens join
together in a common cause that will
contribute to the growth of the whole
communities that they represent
They have but one purpose in mind,
THE most good to the most people
This done, they will have performed a
duty that should bring showers of cred
it for their efforts.

DEMOCRATIC ENGLAND
iverside Daily Press)

(Riverside Daily Press)
Critics of Great Britain, of whom there
are too many for the complete friendship
that should exist between allies in war
time, assail it as a caste-ruled land,
where no one who did not go to Eton or
Harrow has chance.
Is this true? Norman Angel, the Brit
ish writer on public affairs, has just re-
minded Americans that a Jew, Disraeli,
was twice prime minister of England.
Has there ever been Jewish president?
Also among the recent premiers were
Lloyd George, the son of Welsh work
man brought up by cobbler, and Ram
say Macdonald, son of Scottish servant
girl.
Like good many other old ideas, it's
time to lay on the shelf this one about
England as hidebound aristocracy.

THE OLD SHELL GAME

(Santa Ana Register)
The more we observe Soviet diplomacy,
the less we envy such publications as
the Daily Worker and the New Masses,
both trying desperately to hang onto the
American end of the party line.
The latest case in point was recognition
by the USSR of the Badoglio govern
ment when these two American Commu-
mist organs had just finished polishing
off Badoglio and Mr.. Churchill in lam
guage bitter and uncompromlslng.
The editors, trying to guess Marshal
Stalin's next move, must feel good deal
like the farm boy at the county fair
irving to guess under which walnut shell
he would find the dried pea.

Marine Gets Jap
Rifle Hard WAY

ENIWETOK ATOLL, April 10.
CUP)-When Marine Corp. John G.
Jordan, Glendale, Cal, spotted a
Jap rifle sticking out of hole he
grabbed it for a souvenir. Repeated
tugs failed to bring it out but re-
vealed Jap was hanging onto the
other end.
Jordan's companions, Corp. Thom-
as J. Wallace, Springfield, Mass.
and Pfc. Kenneth Fraser, Ferndale
Mich, shot the Jap and two other
of his comrades who put in a SUR
prise appearance.
That's how Jordan got his souve-

JAP AND NAzI MILITARY
STRENGTH STILL FORMIDABLE

Recent announcement out of Chung
king to the effect that Japan is muster
ing at least seven full divisions of crack
troops for new offensive in North Chi
ma, directed on Hoonan province serves
TO show that Tokyo still has what might
appear as an unlimited reservoir of fight
ing men, When it is considered that Jap
an has spread its fighting forces over a
tremendous territory it becomes more ap-
parent and amazing how she can continue
adding more and more men and the
equipment to go with any sizeable cam
paign.
A glance at the European situation
produces similar amaZement that Ger
many still presents a formidable force
More than Japan, even, Germany has
tremendous armed forces on widely scat
tered fronts.
From both these observations it is
evident neither Japans nor Germanv's
back has been broken and that the allies
have task yet before them.
Military experts are more in unison
in the belief that the back breaking"
only can be accomplished by completely
devastating Japan and Germany proper.
1t is agreed, of course. that removing the
enemy from the many occupied countries
is a slow, tedious task Any and all as
saults on the foe in these countries en-
tail the loss of civilian nationals. An in
yasion of GERMANY, overland from the
west, must be at heavy cost to France
.and the Lowlands civilian population.
sJn the case of Janan. a direct assault on
Tokyo and the island itself does not in
svolve that situation. At the moment in
vasion Of Japan proper can be but from
two directions. from China or a sea-
borne invasion ont Of the Pacific. In
neither case would occupied territories
suffer.
If orr military leaders know the
strength Of Japan in the conquered is
lands. which are being reclaimed slowly,
they have not indicated such knowledge.
The Philippines, should there be move
to invade Japan from that point. of
course would suffer. Driving the Japs
from tho Philippines is going to cost
Filipino lives Routing the Japs from
the mvriad of small islands and atolls is
negligible as to loss of lives of native
residents And so that problem stands.
A glance at Europe reveals nazi
strength in the vital areas. Berlin has
maintained up to 1S5 divisions in Russia.
That picture soon will be turned to the
wall however. In Norway little appar-
emily is known as to the actual number
of troops, but all agree it is vast force.
In France up to 45 full divisions are
known to be on watch. In Italy we are
fighting 26 divisions. In the Balkans
prior to the new developments there the
Germans maintained 26 divisions. In
Germany proner the guess may take the
widest latitude.
There is every reason to know that
Germany is using at least 1925 divisions
in its Fortress Europa alone.
However, if it were possible to bring
all the forces of the axis and the allies
onto one great plain for battle, the allied
power in troops alone would smother
the foe.
Just how long, with the battering both
Germany and the Japs are taking to
military works. this formidable strength
will last is the key to the end of the war.

Frances Perkins will be sitting
pretty and right in her element
when the Goth session of the In
ternational Labor Organizations
opens in Philadelphia on April 20
for three or four weeks OF talk
and the resolutions by delegations
from 40 nations. l. L. 0. is one
of madam secretary's pets. She
got us into it in 1884. She has
been a delegate several times and
she presided over the last session.
held in New York in 194l. She Is
U. S. delegate-in- chief - with
Senator Elmer Thomas as co-dele-
gate = 10 the coming Philadelphia
session and is now lining up the
- technical advisers from govern
ment
The full U. S. delegation from
government, labor and manage
ment will number about 30.
1t probably went do 10 kiss all
this off as a convention of inter-
national do-gooders about to make
over the world by passing pious
resolutions. I. L. o. is entitled
to a bow and better acquaintance
if for no other reason than that
il is almost the only usefully func-
tioning survivor of the late Treaty
of Versailles and the League OF
Nations. I. L. o. has kept going
since 1919, and it has done things.
What has the United States got
out of the I. L. o. participation?
Well, for one thing it has ratified
through congress, five CT the 81
conventions" or resolutions which
II. L. o. has passed. These i've
relate to minimum standards for
employment and hours OF work,
protection of women and children,
industrial accident prevention and
compensation, employment condi-
tions for merchant Seamen, and
social security.
RATIFICATION is OPTIONAL
Having accepted the principles
of these conventions, it is incum-
bent upon any ratifying country to
/ live up to their minimum stan
/ dards.
Ratification of conventions is not
compulsory on any country pc
! longing to l. L. O., SO the Phila-
delphia session is in no sense
world parliament or super-state,
telling governments what postwar
social security labor laws they must
enact. The codes are simply there,
in case any country wants to adept
them.
One of the delicate points to be
considered at Philadelphia, how
ever is whether l. L. o. should
have the right to inspect countries
on compliance with conventions,
or whether the countries should be
required to report TO I. L. o. on
compliance
Benefits of I. L. O. to the United
States fall broadly in two classes.
Specific benefits accrue when the
United States is considering new
legislation On such subjects as So
cial security, wages and hours, or
the prevention of industrial dl-
seaSes such as silicosis. 1t can
then call upon I. l.. O. for the eX-
perience and technical advice Of
experts from other countries.
Long benefits to the
United States accrue from helping
other countries with less developed
economies raise their conditions
of employment TO something ap-
proXimating the American standard
of living. The higher the stan
dards of other countries, the bet
ter the chance of American indus
try to compete for world trade on
equal terms.
