Unnecessary Issue

montgomery and Prince Georges
County delegates to the Maryland
Legislature take a more realistic
view of the "borderline certificate"
issue than the Maryland State Board
of Medical Examiners, who created
it.
If Washington doctors decide to
forego the privilege of crossing the
District line, rather than comply
with requirements for regular GER
tificate to practice in Maryland, the
chief sufferers will be the Maryland
patients rather than the Washing
ton doctors. This is recognized by
the legislators, who are attempting
to persuade the Maryland board to
restore the borderline certificates,
discontinued last fall.
Health Officer Rutland has pointed
out that in these busy days, with not
enough doctors available, it is an
imposition in itself to require duly
licensed Washington doctors to 90 to
Baltimore for personal examination
OF their credentials and to pay the
regular State license fee in order to
take care of Maryland patients who
are incidental to practice in the Dis
trict.
What seems even more unfortu-
nate, however, is the narrow view
which prompted the Maryland board
to upset perfectly sensible and
workable reciprocal arrangement be-
tween Maryland and the District of
Columbia, and to raise an unneces-
sary barrier along the boundary line.
The population of the adjacent
counties represents in large degree
an overflow from Washington. That
population is becoming more dense
and extends further into Maryland
and Virginia every year. The intel
ligent effort would be to break down
as many of the boundary barriers
as possible, rather than to create
new, artificial ones. That effort, at
least, would be directed at serving
the welfare of the people rather
than the interests of the office
holders

A Dismal Spectacle

Many members of the Senate
Military Affairs Committee probably
would be the first to agree that the
work bill reported to the Senate
yesterday, after three weeks Of con-
sideration, is neither fish nor fowl
nor good red herring and that the
committee has fallen down miserably
in its attempt to deal effectively with
a serious national emergency.
That is a disappointment, not
merely because of the confused mess
which is left to be unscrambled in
Senate debate but because of the
spectacle of indecision and refusal
to face the issues which the COM
mittee has placed before the coun-
try. There is dismal contrast be-
tween such conduct on Capitol Hill
and that of the splendid young men
marching bravely to their death in
Germany and in the Pacific.
What is the essential difference
between the May bill, passed by a
courageous combination of Repub-
licans and Democrats in the House,
and the version of that measure
reported to the Senate?
Under the House bill a man hold
ing an essential war job may be
ordered by his local draft board to
stay there; should his draft board
decide that he can be used more
effectively somewhere else, he must
go there and serve.
Under the Senate bill the chair
man of the War Manpower Com
mission, acting under the war
mobilization director, may set d
maximum on the number of workers
in any plant or area, fixing that
maximum in terms of age, sex or
occupation of employees. He could
forbid or regulate hiring new en-
ployeS. The workers discharged in
order to keep below the employment
ceilings must find war jobs, remain
unemployed or Starve. Deferred
farm workers who leave the farm are
subject to fine and imprisonment.
Employers (and perhaps employees
there is disagreement among the
lawyers who violate War Manpower
Commission rules are subject to
fine and imprisonment.
The oStensible philosophy of the
Senate bill is to follow voluntary"
instead of compulsory method of
meeting manpower needs. But the
Senate bill is not voluntary. 1t is
more obnoxiously compulsory, be-
cause its compulsion is gained
through indirection and subterfuge,
than the House bill. 1t walks up to
and then backs away from the sound
principle that in total war the citizen
must serve where he is most needed.
on the bloody island of Two or in a
foundry or shipyard, at time-and-
a-half for overtime.
AS a practical method of meeting
the manpower shortage, the Senate
bill probably would fail. It's principles
have been tried and they are not
satisfactory. They are not working
in New Bedford, where labor spokes-
men have tried fruitlessly but furi-
ously to get the courts to intervene.
They did not work in Allentown.
The Senate bill is a half hearted,
spinelesS, short-sighted and polit-
lcally expedient method of meeting
a condition which can mean the
difference between life or death of
men on the fighting fronts. The
Senate Military Affairs Committee
has gained for itself no glory.

This Changing World
By Constantine Brown

The inter-American conference In
Mexico City is likely to be severe
headache and the first test Of diplo-
matte ability for Secretary Of State
Stettinius. 1t is admitted by observers
on Latin American affairs that many
OF the delegates Of our sister republics
are not in particularly good mood.
For the first time in more than
decade, the soft-spoken and able Cor
dell Hull, who has smoothed many
rough waters at these good-neighbor
conferences, will be absent. DR.. Leo s.
Rowe, head Of the Pan American Union,
also will be absent. He has come to be
looked on by all our Latin friends in
the Western Hemisphere as an lin
stitution" without which no inter-Amer-
lean conference is complete.
DR.. Rowe Is absent because of dipIo-
matte considerations. In order to avoid
inviting Argentina, Washington suggest
ed that the Mexican government issue
the invitations on its own initiative.
The conference, therefore, will be the
first big test of the vivacious new diplo-
macy OF Secretary Stettinius and Mel
son Rockefeller, his assistant in charge
of Latin American affairs
They take the helm at time when
the good neighbor policy has sunk to
a low ebb-some people believe the
lowest in decade This slump is due
to several factors.
Most Latin American countries have
seen their prices skyrocket to a point
where the average citizen can scarcely
make both ends meet. AS a result there
has been severe privation in many re-
publics in this hemisphere. The unin-
formed have Blamed this on the United
States, because of its heavy purchase
of strategic materials and its inability
to sell normal goods to Latin America.
The United States also has been put
in the unfortunate position of appear
ing to support certain Latin American
relationships. This is the fault of
war rather than the State Depart
ment. For instance, no Latin American
merchant can secure an import license
or shipping permit or priorities with
out going through his. government,
which in turn works through the State
Department in Washington. If the local
Latin American merchant appeals to
Washington direct he is told to go back
to his local government Thus the State
Department is given credit for sup
porting local Latin American govern

powers for the Pan Ameri-

enlarged powers for the Pan Ameri-
can Union.
All this indicates that Latin
America is disposed to take a much
stronger attitude than it did at the
Versailles conference generation
ago. Latin America was never salts
fed with its position in the League
of Nations, and several of its mem
bers resigned to mark their displeas-
ure. With its increased power and
influence, the Latin American bloc
is now in a position more effectively
to gain its ends.

For Potomac Valley Plan
To the Editor of The Star:

To the Editor of The Star:
In reply to Devereux Butchers criti-
cism of the great and painstaking re-
port of the Army engineers concerning
the development of our Potomac River

Instead of Mr. Butchers scenery,
wouldn't we have water control, mex

ter recreational facilities, future water

Chang, Communists
Reported Drafting
Pact 10 Avert War
BY the Associated Press.


CHUNGKING, Sept. l9-Centra
government and Communist nego-
tiators are reliably reported to be
drafting an agreement aimed al
forestalling civil war which United
States Ambassador Patrick j. Hur-
ley will take to President Truman
when Gen. Hurley leaves for home
soon to offer his resignation.
Gen. Hurley helped draft the pact
described as "an agreement tC
agree" an informed source said. II
was said to represent the longest
step yet taken toward settling the
grave differences between the Com
munists and the government OF
Generalissimo Chang Kai-shek.
Official confirmation that Gen
Hurley plans to retire is lacking
though highly placed source said
he would have returned to Wash
ington earlier If he had not wished
to give counsel to the Chungking
and Yenan negotiatorS.
If an agreement is reached, Gen.
Hurley may regard it as a vindica-
ton OF the way he has implemented
Americas long-standing policy of
supporting the Chang government.
1t is we'll known here that he found
some members of the United States
Embassy who favored switching sup
port to the Communists.
Gen. Hurleys retirement, it was
said, would be explained officially
by the fac that he is 81, has been
working very hard and needs a rest.
