wealth stayed at the Palmer House,
but those who also had position were
invited TO Palmer Castle to dine with
the citys very best people. Three

put up at the Palmer House with her
husband. Prince Antoine, and the
royal party. She was, of course, in

she was about TO leave the hotel

For a while thereafter the French

Turkish, Japanese and Greek parlors

smoking politicians who thoroughly
enjoyed riding up and down In the
elevators and inspecting the more
risque French paintings on the walls.
Honore became an alderman, but
he wasn't able 10 acquire even enough
influence to keep his brother, Potter

'NotionoI Policy for Science

The proposal put forward by DR..
Vannevar Bush for national re-
search foundation will serve at least
one useful purpoSe-namely that of
promoting discussion of what the
relation between science and the
Federal Government shall be in the
years of world reconstruction which
lie ahead. Not everybody, of course,
will agree that "the Government
has only begun to utilize science in
the Nations welfare" Much depends
upon acceptance of Thomas Henry
HuXley'S definition of science" as
organized common science" If
that description be true, then it
would not be difficult to show that
from 1776 onward there always has
been a close relation between the
representatives of the people ana
those men and women who, in multi
tudinouS ways, have been scientists.
The general welfare clause of the
Constitution coverS-indeed, COM
mands-such a mutual interest. So
does the eighth power" of Congress
mentioned in section Of Article I.
Benjamin Franklin did not sit in the
Constitutional Convention in vain.
But DR.. Bush is not arguing to
the contrary. He knows as well as
any of his contemporaries the
chronicle of progress which includes
the establishment of the Patent
Office, the endowment of the land
grant colleges, the development of
the United States Public Health
Service, the subSidization of trans
portation systems on land and sea
and in the air, the enlistment of
inventors like John Ericsson and
Thomas A. Edison for the improve
ment of facilities of national defense
in time of war, the financing of
expeditions into hitherto unexplored
portions of the globe, most notably
the sponsoring of Investigations of
the type associated with the name
of Walter Reed and of enterprises
of public sanitation of the variety
to which General William Crawford
Gorgas gave his genius The list is
endless. No one questions it. DR..
Bush's objective is one of correlation.

Representative Joe" Martin, Repub-
lican leader of the House. this week
tossed hand grenade into the ranks
of the supporters of universal military
training-his proposal that, before this
country adopts military training pro-
gram, the United States Government
seek to prevail upon the rest of the
world to agree to abandon conscription
for military service" Mr.. Martins pro-
posaI, no doubt, will be seized upon by
the opponents of military training as
sensible and reasonable course of action.
1t is neither one nor the other 1t Is
like saying this country should stop
building warplanes, or warships or
guns, while it tries to convince the
rest of the world 1t should build none.
There are q couple of important an
giles to the Martin proposal. First, as
Republican leader of the House, 1t can
not fail to be interpreted that Mr.. Mar
tin was stating Republican view or
issue. Republican leaders in both the
House and Senate say that he offered
his resolution without consulting them
that 1t was an individual proposal.
This, however, does not wipe out the
fact that it was advanced by the chosen
ond, Mr. Martins proposal runs to "con-
scription for military service" Universal
military training is one thing, and
"conscription for military servicea Is
quite another. The House Committee
on Postwar Military Policy, which has
recommended the enactment of legis-
lation for military training, in report
submitted by Representative Woodrum
of Virginia, chairman, drew q definite
distinction between the two, pointing
out that the trainees were not to be
inducted into the Army for military
service. That induction would come
only If and when a war emergency arose.
Unfortunately there has been a great
deal of confusion in the minds of many
people over this matter-and apparently
1t extended to Mr.. Martin.
In 1921 the late President Harding,
also Republican, proposed a naval
limitation conference which was held
in Washington. 1t resulted in the United
States not only scrapping huge Navy,
which 1t had built and building, but also
in the failure of the United States even
to keep the Navy up to treaty strength,
while the other maritime nations, in
cluding Japan, went right ahead build

Dardanelles to Gibraltar
By RAYMOND Moler

Yugoslavia, itself federation of Sla-
vic peoples, is working hard to achieve
a larger federation of Slavic states, ex-
tending from the Adriatic to Turkey.
Russian influence may be brought to
bear in favor of this plan, if, in fact,
it is not already the motivating force
behind it. Russia's interest in such
federation lies not only in its tradi-
tional pan-Slavic policies, but in its de-
sire to establish its position In a great
new Mediterranean balance of power
Britain is concerned. There has been
no official statement of the British posi-
tion, but it is clear that there would
be great fear there lest such a fedora
ton might press heavily on Greece
vital link in Mediterranean politics.
xx Il +
The Mediterranean world, since the
building of the Suez Canal, has wit
messed the passing of two successive
rivals of British domination. For a
long time it was Turkey, with at least
theoretical empire in North Africa and
Asia Minor and with the control of the
Dardanelles Slowly the power of "sick
man of Europe" ebbed and, with the end
of the First World War, Turkey retained
little but the Dardanelles. Then Italy
had her little day. Mussolini claimed
the whole Mediterranean, Mare Nos
trum," among his miscellaneous illegiti-
mate offspring. Now all that passes,
with Britain still powerful, with France
and Spain little more than onlookers
and with Russia determined to realize
the old desire of Peter the Great for
a window on the Mediterranean.

Modern Russia, however, has Medi-
terranean concern beyond that of Peter.
She now claims membership in the
international group controlling Tangier.
That strange international zone, which
looks north upon the Strait of Gibraltar.
has been governed by Britain, France.
Spain, Italy and the Sultan of Morocco.
Russia's claim to participation is sign

ing. The country at that time also dis
carded recommendation for universal
military training. The consequence was
that, when the Republicans went out of
power in 1888, this country was in no
condition to defend itself from major
attack. Tt is a fortunate thing that
naval building was rushed and Selec-
tive service draft law was enacted many
months before the Jap attack on Pearl
Harbor and our involvement in war with
the Axis powers.
1t will be remembered, too, that six
months before the Pearl Harbor attack
the great majority of the Republicans
in the House voted against the reten-
tion of the draftees in the Army. For
tunately a score Of them, including Rep
resentative Wadsworth of New York,
strong supporter of military training,
helped to kill this effort, which would
have disrupted the military service, as
testified by Gen. Marshall chief of staff,
at the time The COP has none too
good record In support of preparedness
for national defense in recent years.
The party, therefore, should give care
full consideration to this issue before it
plunks In support of Mr.. Martins pro-
posal. Opponents of military training
are doing all they can to stall of action
in the immediate future providing for
such training in this country.
n
In its report to the House the Post
war Military Policy Committee pointed
out that future military and naval op-
erations, whether they are to be en-
ployed in the defense of the Nation
or in the implementation by force Of
the decisions of the United Nations
Security Organization, cannot be con-
Quoted effectively by raw recruits or by
partly trained men. 1t pointed out also
there Is no safe basis for assuming that,
before a future aggressor strikes, the
United States will be given warning
and an adequate interval to train men
an interval which was accorded in
both the World War and in the present
conflict.
From realistic point of view there
appears no probability that President
Truman and his aides could prevail
upon the other powers to abstain either
from CONSUMPTION for military training
or for military service. That being the
case, to delay this country's plans for
national defense would be merely plav-
