Auto
Sees Only $500
New Cars This Year

Ray Chamberlain, managing
secretary of the National Auto
Dealers Association, is not
overly-optimistic about recon-
version. He doesn't believe the
car manufacturers can or Will
produce many, il any, new auto
mobiles by the end OF the year.
Real volume, he said, would be
Attained by the second quarter
of 1916.
"If we have $500 now cars
registered by Jan. 1. 1946," said
Chamberlain. II will be surprised.
There may be moro than that
made by that time but they
won't be In shape to be sold by
dealers"
Chamberlain clarified this by
explaining that manufacturers
may run off cars with some
parts missing, such as a grille or
a headlamp or a couple wheels.
These could not be marketed
but dealers could storage them
and wait for the missing part.
They could be sold as Of the
date the entire car can be as
sembled.
Shortages OF this sort are a
possibility, Chamberlain said.
They have occurred before and
dealers have taken cars that
they could not pass on 10 their
customers for a while. II is
doubtful. however. that the
manufacturers will want TO pro-
ceed piecemeal like this.

KILLING THEIR OWN

While military leaders of Western lands have labored for years to perfect medical and surgical treatment for wounded soldiers the Japanese Army apparently follows policy of systematic extermina- ton of its casualties Reports to that effect have been received from various sources in the Far East particularly Okinawa There captured records indi- cate more than SoOo0 injured enemy troops either were forced to commit suicide murdered by their own officers.
 Such action is completely beyond the compre- hension of the Western mind. We feel pity and com passion for human sufferings, and our commanders know that majority of wounded men can be rehabil tated and returned to valuable careers, either as soldiers civilians
 The average American, eyeng the Jap record, must wonder whether not the islanders have any feeling akin to sympathy Certainly they have shown such traits in their treatment of American and Chinese prisoners and civilians But in spite of that record which has been known to us for many years, must be surprised that their heartessness extends to their people,
 As to the practical values concerned-the return of wounded soldiers to Army service following treat ment-the Japanese certainly know all possibilities Among the Npponese some top-fght medical and surgical men, Apparently, however, they wish to have as few prisoners possible in Allied hands. News reports indicate that murder tactics followed most thoroughly when the Japs know that the wounded cannot be moved from points about to be captured, and will certainly be taken prisoner by advancing Allied units.
 Other instances of mass murders have been noted. In least two places where food supplies were short the Japanese are said to have killed all their own casualties in order to provide additional rations for the able bodied Such horrors not isolated exam pes of brutality but rather the overall policy of the Jap military group.
 Few Americans will shed tears at the deaths of fanatical sadistic enemy soldiers much may be repelled by the ideas involved Such program will relieve our own soldiers from providing food shelter

Argentine Volcano
(NeW York TimeS)


 Early in March the American nations at Mexico City invited Argentina to reJoin the Pan- American family ending arrangement of several years that had eliminated finally in withdrawal of most of the American Ambassadors from Buenos Aires. Certain requirements were laid down for this readmisson. When Argentina signed the Act of Chapultepec on April she officially accepted them Except for the declaration of against Germany and Japan on March 27 Argentina would appear to have failed notably to live up any of the other prerequisites of full acceptance This is in contrast to the complete manner in which the United States and the other Pan- American nations have carried out their implied obligations to her.
 Instead of living up to the pledges assumed at Mexico City, Argentina has even nullhled some or the steps she had taken toward a more democratic government prior to the Mexico City Conference She has reinstituted political censorship, ceased giving even vague promises of free elections and, under the guse of military security has arrested without charges and detained without hearing several Argentine leaders who had most vocal in opposition to the Colones' Government
 It is to be hoped that Secretary of State Stettnius friendly warning in his San Francisco address that this countrys sponsorship of an invitation to Ar gentina attend the San Francisco Conference and its previous friendly attitude at Mexico City did not constitute a blanket endorsement of the Argentine Governments policies will have effect. Foreign Minister Cesar Ameghino told Ambassador Braden that Argentina would live up to her commitments, and that much preliminary work to reinsttute democracy south of the Rio de la Plata already has been done An even better answer would be some concrete step in that direction

Who Puzzles Whom?
(NeW York TilnesD

(NeW York T1meS)
 Since it is permissible introduce grave matters lightly there is the story of the little boy who was told to stop pulling the cats tail He insisted that he was doing nothing of the kind All he did was to hold on to the cats tail and the cat did the pulling. That is virtually the explanation which you hear on every side here home for the sometimes tense state of Soviet American feeling. Soviet Russia can be accused of nothing than holding on to the cats tail It is we who have created the unfortunate state of tension by pulling in what consider the right direction.
 In every case of Russo-Amercan misunderstand- ing it is the assumption in quarters mentioned above, that we are always at fault We gnorantly or per- versely fail to understand the Russians and their use of language The thought is suggested that the Russians and their of language may be hard to understand for us, and sometimes impossible to understand.
 Take plain everyday word like coalition" A writer in Izvesa says that Chinas great need is "a coalition government dedicated to democracy" To realize that aim two steps necessary First there must be national assembly in which all parties are represented After this must come "the removal of the reactonaries who now head the Kuomintang, the Chinese government party"
 In other words, coalition used in Izvestia means the elimination of the people Izvestia doesn't like Compromise means purge of ones opponents. If there is in the United States and other English-speak ing parts of the world gross misunderstanding of Izyestias stand on coalition and compromise 1t is because the speaking nations malicously twist the meaning of these words, are just plain dumb.

THE NINE OLD MEN

Resignation of Justice Owen D. Roberts from the Supreme Court has aroused speculation among court insiders as to it's effect upon Chief Justice Harlan F. Stone. Ever since the retirement of Chief Justice Charles Ev nS Hughes, these two-Stone and Ro- berts-have been the sole surviving Republicans, surrounded by young CT Democrats. And gradually over the years, they have grown closer to each other. Perhaps also the fact that they sit together on the bench cements this friendship. Dur ing courts sessions. Roberts, a forceful and charming conversa- tionalist, frequently leans over and whispers to the Chief Justice, on whose right he sits.
 Court insiders believe this close relationship has had its effect upon Stones opinions, which in recent years have veered to the right.
 During early days on the court, Stone was influenced by the pow erful legal minds of Justices Bran deis, Oliver Wendell Holmes and Cardozo-all liberals Those were the days when his opinions had a liberal ring-despite the fact that he was appointed to the bench by Calvin Coolidge and was the med icine-ball partner of Her be t Hoover.
 But under the Roberts influence, Stones opinions have changed. The Chief Justice sees much less of the Democratic justices, even though Justice William O. Douglas was once his student at Columbia. With the retirement of Roberts, how ever, legal observers are wondering whether the Chief Justices opin- ions will revert to his old liberal days-or whether he will retire from the court shortly himself

 From what we know of Renner so far we have no particular ob- jection to him"
 SIGNIFICANT BRITISH NOTE
 The ! highly significant British document follows:
 Soviet government have inform ed us through His Majesty's Charge d'Affaires in Moscow that they have been approached by Karl Renner, ex-Chancellor of Austrian Republic and last President of Free Austrian Council, with suggestion that he be allowed to form Provi- sional- Austrian Government, to consist of representatives of all Austrian political parties.
 Soviet Government states that they consider it desirable not to hinder Renner in this task, and maintain that creation of Provi- sionals Austrian Government can rendef substantial aid to Allied cause tin struggle foy complete lib- eratiof of Austria
 Similar approach has been made to United States Government but not apparently to French Provi- sional Government
 His Majesty's Charge d'Affaires in Moscow has been instructed as a matter of urgency to request So- viet Government not to recognize any provisional Government In Austria pending formulation Of considered views by ourselves, United States Government and French Provisional Government.
 Matter does not admit of delay if we are to forestall isolated Sov- jet action We are endeavouring to concert with United States and French Provisional Government for parallel approach to Soviet Gov ernment.

servants of the postal service -
have presented their petition for
redress of economic grievances
before a sympathetic committee
Of Congress.
The plight of these government
employees, some 10000 in number.
was presented at hearing on the
bill of Rep. Thomas G.. Burch of
Virginia, chairman OF the House
poStoffice committee, providing
for a S400 increase in the basic
pay of nearly all postal workers,
in place of the temporary bonus
of $500 annually granted in 1943
under a law which will expire

Advocates of the measure
stressed the necessity for prompt
action, and explained that actually
the average wage increase author
lied is only 500 year in excess
