Tire Inspection
Nuisance Removed
By SILER FREEMAN

The removal of the tire in
Spection requirement by the
OPA meets with hearty APP
proval in this corner. 1t is one
OF those bright ideas thought
up hurriedly in Washington
which meant exactly nothing as
far as being effective.
The ineffectiveness was due
mainly to the fact that the men
entrusted with the inspections
performed their tasks perfume
torily Maybe that was due to
the low returns which the OPA
allowed them, p cents per
inspection.
But while their returns may
have been low, the customer
got nothing for il. All ne was
interested in was getting his
inspection card okayed. and it
seemed all the inspector was
interested in was getting the
2o-cent piece.
1t would have been better TO
require a thorough tire check
once a year than the perfume
tory one directed periodically.
Most tire faults can't be found
by a glance at the outside. The
tire must be demounted and
the inside, as well as outside,
checked thoroughly.
SO good radiance TO tire in
Spections. Drivers know what
they face on the tire question.
Let 1t so at that.

APPEAR HARMLESS

Now the foregoing quotations
may seem harmless enough TO you
IF you are not versed in the radi-
.cal ideologies. But Just reflect
carefully on the following point
10y point analysis:
War and peace are not the
same, and war economy is
neither democratic nor economical.
1T is inevitably dlctatorlal and
IWaStcful
Planning does not require
boards and central government
leaders. Democracy means plans
arrived at through popular dis
cussion and free voting.
Neither does planning" consist
in restricting competition. Com
petition is systematic--it is the
incentive system. II is the SyS-
tenn, whereby individuals are
given a chance to show Cd what
they want and (2) what they can
do, with rewards and penalties
accordingly.
Private planning is not neCeS-
sarily land should not be- uncon-
trolled. irresponsible, OF. selfish.
1t can be intelligent, and there
fore public spirited 1t is COM
pletelY eSponSible-the only really
responsible planning,
The modern tendency (war
born in Germany, Russia and
elsewhere, toward control by
public agencies (bureaus) is
neither now nor sound. Above all.
II gives no representation to the
whole people" 1t represents the
party that dominates the state
the government. But that may
mean but little more than half the
whole people! 1t generally means
some pressure group.
/ believe that men who talk this
way are at heart either Com
munistS or FaSciStS. They must
be essentially egotistical. else how
could they be sure that they know
how 10 run the central planning
agency they talk about!

one ot The most dangerous

days like a disease germ, is the
thought that individual initiative

mue IL is the idea that compc-

Today our resistance 10 this

STRATEGY or WAR

For example, a certain univcT-
SIty professor writes:
we know that we cannot
plan the industrial and eco
nomic strategy of war without
planning boards, most of them
with -eeereipe powers Nhy wr
cannot plan the strategy of
peacetime economy is beyond
comprehension"
lie says we need an overall
oversight Of our economy" on a
national scale.
A government economist re-
Gently asserted in a public address
that privately controlled plan
ming is planning by an unCon-
trolled irresponsible bureaucracy.
That is the reason why in those
cases where planning limitation
or regulation of competition-ap-
pears TO be necessary, the modern
tendency tSICJ is to permit such
planning only on condition that il
be operated or controlled by a
public agency" Such an agency,
he asserts, would be responsible
to the whole people. 1t would
prohibit planning by one of the
interested parties, responsible only
to its own interested group"

BY ALICE EvERSMAN.

The spirit of the Christmas sea-
son was thoroughly present. In the
presentation the Washington Choral
Society gave of Handefs THE
Messiah" last night in Constitution
Hall. The impressive music was
sung by soloists and chorus alike
with reverence and the entire per-
formance had a splendid finish
about 1t. Louis A. Potter, conduc-
tor, had trained the singers and the
orchestra, which had the additional
fullness of the piano and organ,
with care and the result was one
of the most outstanding presenta-
tions the Choral Society has to its
credit.
The many friends of the society,"
and also of Handels great work,
had seen to it that seats were taken
so far in advance that none re-

mained for sale the last days pre-
ceding the event. Everything to
make the Constitution Hall debut
of THE Messiah" an occasion to
remember was thought of, with the
last two portions being broadcast.
The enthusiasm that broke out in
applause at every opportunity had
to be stilled while the performance
was on the air.
The steady strides toward perfec-
ton which the Choral Society has
been making recently showed still
greater gain in the finer points Of
choral singing. In each section
the voices have attained a unity of
sound that is clear and true and
as the vocal quality throughout is
of high standard, the ensemble
is rich and excellently balanced.
The many florid passages for the
chorus were given with great clar-

ity and In matters Of attack the
finish Of the musical phrase and
the employment of tonal color the
$50 singers responded as one. Par
ticularly fine in these respects was
the Lift up your heads" where the
polyphony was well stressed.
The four soloists, Dorothy Sar-
noff, soprano: Mary Van Kirk. con-
tralto: Earl Palmer, tenor, and Rob-
ert Nicholson, bass, were imbued
with like feeling of the beauty
and solemnity of both text and mu-
sic. Miss Van Kinks very beautiful
