PRESIDENT TRUMAN'S
 PLEDGES

President Truman apparently is adopting the unique policy of not forgetting campaign pledges. The other day he stuck his neck out regarding the Fair Employment Practices Act (despite its unpopu- larity in the South) by urging the Rules Committee to report the bill out and let Congress vote on it.
 Following this, he had an inter esting conversation with Generoso Pope, Itahan-American publisher in New York Pope had come to ask that American policy in Italy give more encouragement to democratic ideas, and not let the Italian peo- pie be subject to the British pol icy of restoring the monarchy or the Russian policy of Communism. Pope pointed out that one of the best ways of preventing these po- litical extremes was to help the Italian people out in their desper- ate plight, and to let them have some of the food and supplies or iginally imported for the U. s. and Allied armies, but now surplus.
 After listening carefully, Presi- dent Truman told Pope:
 T made a speech about that in the last campaign I'll do my best to carry those ideas out

JAPAN'S ALLY-DISTANCE!

Much has been said and written about the vast distances involved in prosecution of the against Japan
 1st The New York Times recently visualized the aimensty of the sphere of action in which should aid in bringing complete realization of the vasness the Pacific theatre home to the people of the United States in general; particularly those inhabiting regions removed from the Pacific Ocean, who are less likely have firsthand knowledge of just how big is that expanse of water
 Said the Times:
 Between New York and the scene of victory in the heart of Germany soldiers travelled 4450 statute miles, of which $500 upon the ocean. To reach Tokyo from the West Coast port of San Francisco, by way of major Pacific base in the Philippines they will have to about 9,200 miles of ocean. Their voyage to the Japanese mainland will thus be than two and one-half times as long as their ferry trip the D-day beaches of Normandy
 ea A newspaper cartographer helps us landbound aonlookers to understand how huge the Pacific theatre is All he has to do is to impose the outline of the United States upon the map of the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere staked out by Japan The United States is man-size country with end of mileage, even it's enemies admit But out there in those wide open spaces looks like another Belgium

FOR THE SCOTS

Tomorrow is the anniversary of the battle of Bannockbun 8 proud date in Scottish history, when heavily outnunbered Scottish pkemen under the lead- ershp of Robert Bruce, aided by few thousand Eamp followers, routed an English army.
 That was more than 600 years ago. It served as notice that the spirit of liberyloving people could not be broken. And though Scotland and England eventually merged politically in that there was no surrender of the native culture and customs that the Scots had built up from time immemoral.
 Besides their contributions to the United Kingdom, the Scottish people have added much to the traditions and culture of America Among American citizens of Scottish descent is one General Douglas Macarthur He is busy now routing Jap armies.

found himself ready to fly home in a virtually empty plane. There were only five in his own party, but his plane could carry about twenty.
 So Davies invited the Army to send some convalescent wounded men back with him. The Army demurred, explaining that it would have to send it's own doctor and couldn't spare a doctor except on one of it's own hospital planes. Davies then invited the Army to use his personal physician who was with him, but this was not accord ing to regulations.
 In the end, Davies recruited his own passengers, a couple Of pri- yates, a Red Cross worker, two generals, and anyone else who wanted to fly the Atlantic home.

Surplus Aircraft
Washington Post)


 The Surplus Property Board has found the most sensible use-perhaps the only sensible use-for the tremendous quantities of obsolescent aeronautical equipment now the possession of the armed services Much of this equipment is already in the surplus category; much will be declared surplus as newer weapons brought forward for the attack on Japan The boards Regulation No. authorizes cer- tain classes of surplus aeronautcal property to be disposed of at nominal prices to educational insti- tuons for classroom, research and other nonfight educational activities. Planes, engines and aviation instruments will thus be made available for study by the fiers of the future. They should prove valuable aids in aviation instruction and in research into various phases of aerodynamics
 The prices to be set on this surplus property will not amount to much more than the cost of handling and preparation for shipment surplus dive bomber, for example, will be sold for a mere S100, twin engined fighter for $50. Even one of the mighty flying fortresses will cost more than $35O But these engines of destruction can have little or no commercial value the war is ended. They are not suitable for commercial airline use or for private flying And so far the armed forces are concerned oumoded surplus planes are worse than useless, Tor possession them might retard the acquisition of new and more effective equipment. There have been suggestions born of this fear, that surplus Army and Navy planes be dumped into the ocean.

News from the Isles
(NeW York Times)

Many will await with keen interest further reports from the isles of Jersey and Guernsey. These two small bits of land off the French coast are the world famous homes of of most popular dairy breeds Jerseys and Guernseys For generations caftie rom these islands been exported to the Tinted States Many of the prominent herds in this country have been founded directly on bloodlines from famous breeders the islands Agricultural experts fear that the Germans have slaughtered many of the breeding animals and thus destroyed the results of long years of breeding
 They are especially concerned to learn whether the Germans have brought outside cattle to the two islands The Channel island herds have always been free of tuberculosis unique and valuable consld- eration to purchasers from many countries of the world If the wartime conquerors introduced ths disease it will pose a grave problem for the inhab- tants whose animal husbandry has been famous among breeders everywhere. British dalrymen m particular have big stake in the situation. Britain dairy industry is in serious situation so lar as disease is concerned and the islands constitute vital source of supply Farm leaders hope that enough seed cattle" are left restore the breeding operations, but admittedly fear that German ruthlessness has permanently injured two of the worlds unique farming areas

Adverse planetary influences dom mate today which may be marked by illustrations and disappoint- ments. It is not a lucky date for launching important enterprises.
 HEART AND HOME Women should not trust their judgment today This applies to love matters as well as to employment problems. It is not an suspicious date to seek new jobs. BUSINESS AFFAIRS Greed under the label of business enterprises will be revealed in pres sure upon Congress for special priv ileges. The stars long have presag- ed the growth of power among groups with underground connec- tions. Subversive plots will be un- covered but only minor activities will be revealed, according to the fseers.
 NATIONAL ISSUES
 Search for amusement will be prevalent everywhere and much money will be spent. Astrologers caution young folks to conserve their energies and their dollars and warn of dangers from too much drinking of alcoholic beverages. INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
 Hunger and starvation among Japanese will be apalling this month. Vast numbers of enemy fighters will be killed Although extermination of the Japanese appears possible the stars promise survival and slow re- covery from war conditions.

 HEART AND HOME
 Family conferences of the future activities of recent college grad uates may reveal wide differences Of opinion. The younger generation must be free to follow uncharted reads. Postwar opportunities will offer peculiar problems including those that require foreign residence and separation from families.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS
 Practical points of view among legislators and Government officials will be profitable to American businessmen. Wariness of new cor porations bearing patriotic names is necessary, however, for the stars pre- sage confusion regarding postwar en- terprises.
 NATIONAL ISSUES
 The label of Communism will be erroneously applied to many pro- gressive ideas. Liberated peoples of Europe will be attracted to prin- ciples that promise, much for the common welfare.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
 Stern justice is to rule in the pun ishment of war criminals. Those who rely on American kindliness and softheartedness will discover that Uncle Sam can be determined and unchangeable in judgment where payment for past offenses is neces- sary if future malefactors are to be eliminated
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of memorable experiences. Domestic affairs should be especially fortunate

are no more places to be liberated.
There are no children to grow
up-nO more than ten thousand, to
replace seven million slaughter
ed Jews.
From Italy, the report comes of
some forty thousand alive, in
Guiding the Jews of JugoSlavia.
From the Russian side, we
learn of a hundred and fifty
thousand still surviving in Hun
gary, and possible two hundred
thousand survivors Of the mill
lions of Polish Jews.
And the three hundred thou
sand Jews of Roumania, surviv-
ing.
That is all. A scant million,
out Of the eight to ten million
Jews of Europe. And of all the
communities, all the Jewries with
their live and Towering cultures,
only ROumania remains intact.
Poland, the center Of Jewish life
in Europe, is q monument to the
completeness Of Hitler's one VIC
tory.
Can these communities be re-
established in Europe? Can the
survivors return to their homes,
and take root?
Who are the survivors? In the
German cities, those who survive
are the mix-married Jews, whose
children are half-JewiSh and in
most cases the children who were
allowed to live were only those
who had adopted Christianity.
Out of these people, nothing
creatively Jewish will come; there
will only be individual completes.
In the concentration camps,
some few thousand young people
who are regaining vigOr are to
be found. About half Of these are
clearly determined to have a life
in Palestine. They while away
this time of waiting, singing He
brew songs, discussing plans for
their life in Palestine. They are
pSychicaIly the best balanced. The
others, young and old, don't know
what they want; they only know
that they do not want to 60 back
to their land Of origin, to the place
where their families were MUIR
dered. Some, who still cherish a
shred Of hope that q brother or
! parent may be alive, want to go
back in the hope Of . reunion,
before seeking a new life. But
all want eventually to find q life
in America or Australia - any
where but Europe.
A young, tormented boy in Ber-
gen BelSen is typical Of these lost
souls. He is gifted for chemistry.
He wonders, should he make his
way to the Russian side, or wait,
and trust his life to the western
world. Would the Russians make
simple 1aborer Of him, or would
they give him an opportunity to
study, to become a chemist? And
on the western side-hOw long
would it be before he could find
his way to some country where
his talents might flower? All
day, all night he torrents him

It means his whole life.

pie? II Is already obvious that
