To the Editor of The Star:
Newspaper columnists and radio COM
mentators have been free with words
Tor general consumption as expert
opinion-concerning the appointment of
Henry Wallace to cabinet position.
But is it really sensible to suggest
that all of us are "bewitched, bothered
and bewildered" by recent happenings
including the so-called peculiar" letter
TO the New York diners of January %?
Why doesn't some one expert" take a
realistic view of the whole situation?
q We have for consideration a specific
action by the most astute, the some
times ungrateful, and the most fire.
quently middle-of- stream horse
changing politician we shall see-with
or without peace-in our time.
IT the Wallace appointment isn't a
political move, pointed at some specific
date or occasion-of the future-and
having relation to some ambition or
desire on the part of the champion
breaker Of precedents, then it's Just
damphool move-and, unfortunately for
us Republicans, there is one Democrat
who doesn't make any damphool per-
sonal political moves.
No, this appointment definitely was
intended to shelve Mr. Wallace for 1948.
If you have any doubts about it, just
call on Paul v. McNutt, who once had a
considerable following. BILL TINK.

Postwar Credits Abroad

Requests from several foreign gov
ernments for postwar credits for re-
construction and development open
up a matter of great and far reach
ing Importance, whose significance
transcends its purely economic
aspect.
In the first place it should be un-
derstood that these suggested credits
stand wholly apart from lease-lend,
which is confined to war-making
purposes and logically terminates
with the end of hostilities. Their
aim is to repair the ravages of war in
the countries concerned by purchases
of goods from this country by means
of intergovernmental financial ar
rangements on long-term, low
interest basis. The magnitude of the
proposed transactions can be gagged
by the request by Soviet Russia for
credits amounting to $4,000, 900 900.
This is the only proposal specifically
known to the general public, but the
State Department has disclosed that
discussions are proceeding with other
nations. and it is a fair assumption
that the requests are on a proper
tionally large scale. 1t may likewise
be assumed that the governments
involved are our present Allies or as
sociates in the wartime consortium
known as the United Nations.
Such transactions would clearly
transcend the present capacity Of
the Export-Import Bank. the gov
ernmental agency which handles
foreign credits. because it's loaning
limit is 100000, 900. much of which
is already obligated. Congressional
action would be needed to raise that
limit. An even graver difficulty is
existing legislation forbidding the
lending of money to any government
which was in default on it's obliga-
tions as of April. 1884 This would
rule out virtually all our European
Allies and associates. The President
has asked Congress to lift this ban
and thereby make possible negotia-
tions in the light of present and
future conditions.
Assuming that legal and technical
difficulties are removed. the question
| still remains complex one. Un-

above Bataan, in Bataan itself and
in Batangas. The number facing this
grim prospect is not clear. but ever
since the Lingayen Gulf landings our
forces have met relatively minor
resistance on the march to Manila,
a fact which may mean that Yama-
shita's forces in Southern Luzon are
not very large.
1t has been estimated that there
are between 10000 and 100000
enemy troops on the entire island,
but the greater part of these may be
in the north with orders to hold
there at all costs. Once the Ameri-
can flag flies again over Manila and
Southern Luzon, however, the Japa-
nese will probably continue to be as
surprised, as outmaneuvered and as
outfought as they have been since
the day General Macarthur made
good his vow to return to the
Philippines.

political scientists, have the opportu-
nifty to present a legislative program.
OF course If, after the program is pre-
sented. 1t fails in part or in whole to
command majority in either house,
it will fall.
In order to be able to formulate a
legislative program, there must be more
and better paid research officials of the
Congress and its committees. AS the
report points out, the executive branch
of the Government has hundreds of
highly paid officers of this kind. The
second duty of the legislative council
is to bring about better working rela-
tions with the President and with the
heads Of the various executive depart
ments and agencies. Under the Roose-
welt administration, the plan has been
for the President to call in a small
number of leaders to talk over pro-
posed legislation informally. These
leaders frequently have not been at
liberty to tell Congress and the country
what has been said at these informal
conferences. In the opinion of the
Political Science Committee, this is,
to say the least. ineffective uaison
They propose that the President shall
confer with the entire proposed legis-
iative council-that the meetings shall
be formalized, with fixed time for
meetings, unless there is nothing to be
considered. 1t sounds like good sense,
if the executive and the legislative
branches are to talk on equal terms.
1t certainly should work to bring the
branches of Government closer together,
if there is good will on both sides and
an earnest desire to cooperate. If not,
one OF these meetings might easily break
up in heated row.
The report comments with favor on
the proposal already advanced by Rep
resentative Kefauver of Tennessee for
regular question periods in the House,
when heads of Government departments
and agencies will appear. Another posi-
BILE channel of communication and CO.
operation would be for each cabinet
officer and agency head to appoint
congressional secretary. This secretary
would maintain an Office in the Capitol
and keep closely in touch with COM
mittees having to do with his depart
ment
On the matter of compensation for
members Of Congress, the political scien-
lists are more realistic than the recent
report Of the National Planning Asso-
citation which recommended a SIS, 900
salary. They suggest $4,000. The salary
Is now $4,000, and INADEQUATE,

On luzon

In its first reported action in the
war, General Eichelberger's Eighth
Army has made highly successful
debut on Luzon. Taken together
with the gains made by General
Krueger's Sixth Army forces, the
Eighth Army's landings in the Subic
Bay area, followed by it's landings
at Nasugbu in Batangas Province to
the south, leave the japanese in
desperate position in Manila and
throughout the whole southern half
of the island.
In the Subic Bay sector Eighth
Army troops have already captured
the Olongapo naval base and are
moving eastward to join Sixth Army
forces striking westward from San
Fernando to bottle upsall Japanese
garrisons on Bataan Peninsula.
simultaneously pincers is being
closed on Manila. with the Sixth
Army continuing to advance from
the north to a point less than 20
miles from the capital and with the
Eighth Army force striking across
Batangas from the south, some go
miles from the city. In General
MacArthur's words. the latter drive
largely seals off the possibility Of
the enemy troops south of Manila
joining those in the north, and def
initely outflanks the enemy's defense
lines in Southern Luzon."
It remains to be seen what the
japanese will do now. but their
position around Manila appears so
hopeless that news dispatches from
General MacArthur's headquarters
suggest that it may be only matter
of days before the city falls into our
hands. This would leave the enemy
scattered into several unconnected
pockets all the way southwark from
Lingayen Gulf-trapped for method

doubtedly the extending Of huge
postwar credits would result In a
great extension of our foreign trade.
Most of it. judging by the nature
of Russia's requests, would be what
is known as durable goods plant
equipment and machine tools rather
than consumers goods. This raises
considerations of their ultimate COM
petitive effect on the world market.
Another factor is the method of re-
payment, whether in gold, of which
we already have plethora, or in
imports of which we stand in need.
Last but not least there is the con-
nection between foreign loans and
political stability. Credit is essen
TALLY based on confidence. and long
term loans would be much sounder
in a stable. cooperative world-order
than in one exposed to the vicissi-
tudes of power politics" All these
factors should be carefully weighed
before major credit commitments
are entered upon.

This Changing World
By Constantine Bro,On

these well-trained men to defend Ber-
lin with the assistance Of the volks-
sturm battalions
The stiffening Of the German resist
ance to the Russians-who appear
determined to reach the German
capital as soon as possible-is con-
sidered here as an indication that
Hitlers faithful men are intent on
making their last organized stand in
that area. But it is highly doubtful
that they can do better than delay
the Russians temporarily
In modern wars the capture of
capital has no more significance than
the capture of any other town. The
Germans themselves reached the ap-
proaches Of Moscow in 1912. But there
is a great difference between the posi-
tion of the Russians at that time and
the position Of the Germans today.
The Russians had thousands of miles
Of territory beyond them and could
afford, If necessary, to abandon their
capital.
The Germans are compressed between
two great forces, the Russian in the
east and the American-British in the
west. There Is no place for retreat to
gain time and reorganize their forces
as the Russians did three years ago. And
while the military Importance of Berlin
Is insignificant, the political conse-
quences Of its fall will be far-reaching.
After nearly six years of hard struggle
the fact that their capital has fallen
into the hands of the enemy will have
a crushing effect on the German people.
In 1912 the destruction of the most i'm
portant industrial areas of the U. S. S. r.
was fully compensated by the lease-lend
supplies rushed from the United States
and Great Britain. The supplies revital-
lied the Russian fighting men, who were
able to reorganize themselves quietly far
behind the fighting lines.
The Germans have no such future in
store. Their industries in the west have
been 10 per cent destroyed by the Allied
air forces, while the new war industries
in the east, which have been untouched
all during the war, are by way of falling
into the hands of the Red armies Under
these conditions the doom of Hitler and
his associates seems closer than most
people are inclined to believe
