THIS PROBLEM NEED NOT
WAIT FOR END or WAR

Il is to be regretted that the expiring
18th Congress failed to make even a start
in determining on the vital matter of
placing a limit on postwar immigra-
ton.
There is a persistent move on to remove
the present barriers which holds entry
to a small number and places the regula
tory machinery in position to weed out
effectively the hordes of undesirables.
The problem can not wait the end of
the war In fact the war has aggravated
the problem. At present there are many
thousands of European civilian refugees
in this country, the maj Ority from south
ern Europe, an area which our present
immigration laws particularly is appIc-
able. 1t is from this part of continental
Europe that most of the undesirables
originate.
In addition to these refugees are the
increasingly large number of war pris-
oners Latest, and a tardy report, at
that disclosed that these war prisoners
already here numbered more than 300,-
600.
There is the disturbing belief that the
administration has no intention of return
ing the refugees. This belief has back
of it the fact there is no adequate super
vision of the refugees and that they rap
idly are scattering and establishing them
selves so that they may never be identi-
fled and returned. Indeed one proposal
submitted to congress would specifical-
ly amend the law to admit the refugees
enmasSe.
On the other hand proposals call for
even stricter bars and others go as far
as to call for complete ban for At least
five years after the war ends. This pro
posal. while drastic has widespread and
growing support both inside and outside
congress. 1t is. however, so extreme a
position as to ALLEVIATE some Of the sup
mort for moderate exclusion act
The humanitarian impulse must be
submerged, at least until there is COM
plete assurance that the returning fight
ING men firmly are located in jobs or
business and that the entire job problem
satisfactorily is solved. No arm chair
benevolepce should be permitted to sway
Congress. Let the dreamers wait.
We can satisfy that desire to help the
war-stricken in Europe by going far IN
their rehabilitation in their own homes.
One of the greatest needs in putting these
nations back on their feet is man-poWer
and in helping them rebuild their own
firesides should in itself be a noteworthy
humanitarian gesture.
The most needed elements in handling
these problem IS plain common sense.

PECULIAR RULING
Sacramento Bee)

Sacramento Bee)
From Salt Lake City came brief dis
patch Of little consequence other than
to indicate a frequent inability to use
common sense just because some techni-
cal law violation is involved.
Despite the wartime urgent need for
waste paper officials in the Utah city
were required to burn large quantity
Of ballots voted in a l943 municipal cleo
ton.
When an effort was made to save the
paper for salvage, the Utah attorney gen
eral quoted from a state law which specl-
fies ballots must be retained one year
and then burned.
Ordinarily a law is something COM
manding respect-to the letter.
But it is difficult, in this instance, to
understand why grinding up the ballots
into useful pulp would not have served
the laws purpose as we'll as did destruc-
ton by fire.

a STEP IN THE
RIGHT DIRECTION
(Santa Ana Register)

(Santa Ana ReglSter)
Orange county's first American-Japa-
nese family has return home, after nearly
three years of exile in other parts of
the United States. This is certainly
step in the right direction toward right
ing a direct violation Of the Constitution
of the United States, and it is to be hop
ed that before long all worthy citizens
will be permitted to return to their homes.
Now that the return of these families
of Japanese ancestry has started, there
will undoubtedly be some who will object
to these citizens coming back to the west
coast. But it should be kept in mind that
they are citizens, that the government
had no right to remove them from the
country in the first place unless they
were disloyal to the nation, and that as
citizens they have been offended against
and not offenders.
The first family to return is well
thought of by residents of their com
munity and have been useful and loyal
members of the great American family,
or the Army and government author
tiles would not have permitted their re-
turn.
They are entitled to the respect that
any American family is, and it is hoped
that there will be no unpleasantness to
mar their homecoming.

NEW DIESEL ENGINES
MOVING MORE FREIGHT

PORTLAND, Ore, Dec. %. CUP)
Larger-type locomotives are giving
western railroads a bigger haul
through high mountain passes and
effectively increasing the total
freight haul.
F.. j. Gavin, president Of the Great
Northern railways, says his Inc is
moving per cent more freight than
during the record breaking year of
l943. mainly because large diesel
locomotives are hauling more ton
mage on each train.
Gavin predicted that the big push
Of war materials to the Pacific the
ater would Jump the freight en-
western lines by another 25 per cent,
but said the lines would be ready to
meet the emergency. He cited the
use of 13 new 5400-horEepoWer diesel
locomotives by the Great Northern,
which permits the hauling Of 500
instead of 400 tons. The steam loco
motives formerly used for this work
are diverted 10 other locations en-
the road
Another group Of IL diesels are on
order, as we'll as 500 additional gon-
dola cars and $50 fiat cars.

LOOK WHO'S HERE!

(RiverSide Daily PreSS)
A man named Benito Mussolinl ap-
peared in Milan the other day, enjoying
the honor of reviewing some Italian
troops He ascended a balcony (some-
how those Italians, from Romeo and
Juliet down, always seem to favor bal
conies) and told eloquently how four
Italian divisions trained in Germany
were going to "set free the soil Of the
motherland.'
The speech was permitted by the Fed
eral Communications commission and,
when it ended, the still pompous little
man mounted tank-not water tank,
but a military tank--to view the troops
marching by.
And that was that Benito probably
figured that it was another good days
work done. But how are the mighty
fallen! .--.
Maybe the great Hitler himself will
soon be engaged in similar operations. A
mock parade of the mighty Teuton lead
ers behind Hitler would add zest to the
show. They should all be paraded like
war prisoners in the ancient Roman
games, before they're hanged.

RACKETEERS SET FREE

Two notorious labor racketeers have
bluffed their way to release from prison
after conviction along with seven others.
They were guilty of extorting more than
million dollars from movie industry.
They went to prison only last May. They
had been convicted in 1941. And so Willie
Bioff and George Browne are free be-
cause they threatened to recant on their
evidence by which the other seven were
convicted. Bioff was on a ten-year term.
Browne, eight. The Judge in effect heed
ed their threats. And also rewarded two
crooks for helping convict seven other
crooks. Maybe that is sound reasoning.
We dOubt it.

NEW YORK, Oct. 10. tUP)-Big
international racing classics, bring
ing together the fastest horses of 4
half-do2en countries. will be a fea-
ture of the postwar sports boom,
according to Alex Robb, executive
secretary of the Thoroughbred Rae
ing association of the United States.
Recent developments IN air trans
portation, which now permit quick
movement of army hCrses over long
distances. will make possible these
clas sizes by eliminating lengthy
ocean voyages and seasickneas of
thoroughbreds, Robb says.
Chatting after last nights dinner
for the nations turf writers and
track publicity men at tfe Waldorf
Astoria, Robb predicted: Three or
four years after the war ends, well
have hCrses from England, France,
Russia, Argentina, Chile, Mexico
and other countries competing in
our major races. Because of i'm
proved air transportation, they'll
be able to do this without losing
too much time frem their homeland
campaigns"
Robb, an ultra -conservat tive, is a
tall bespectacled man with temple
gray in his dark hair. He looks like
the hard-headed business executive
he was when drafted into racing
a decade ago as a sort of financial
efficiency except for the late Willis
Sharpe kilmer-oWner of Extermi-
nator. Sun Beau, Sun Briar. etc.
Because Robb now is probably
more familiar with the national rae
ing set-up than any other individual.
he was asked: How much money
is invested in racing in this coun-
trY?n
He replied. AT the time of Pearl
Hadbor. the total United States in
vestment in racing track horses
st3d farms, etc. - approXimated
sl60 000090. That investment rat
urally IS worth much more row"
He added that, when TIE war began,
racing gave employment TO more
than 10000 persons in the United
States. thereby contributing TO the
livelihood Of at least 24l 900 persons
counting dependents.
