Airport Controversy Discussed By Lions Speaker

Alien Dean. Transportation Con-
sultant to the Detroit Board Of
Commerce and member of the
Michigan Aero Club, recently ex-
planned the Detroit airport contro-
versy to the Wyandotte Lions Club.
Detroit was formerly a leader in
commercial aviation being the first
city to come before the Civil Aero
nautics Board to show the import
ance of the city rather than the
state in the picture. In 1910 De-
troit was serviced only by American
Airlines, Pennsylvania Central Air
lines and Marquette. Transconti-
mental Western Anyways later ac-
quired Marquette. Fifty applications
fof new air routes were on file
prior to the war, but hearings were
postponed until 1913. Detroit now
has IL certified airlines, but the
airport is the worst of any large
city in the country with the single
exception Of Washington. Three
direct routes to Europe are planned
but Detroit has no place to bring
in the planes.
Seventeen sites for the new air
port have been considered and of

THE efforts of Congress to estab
Il lish the responsibility for the
Pearl Harbor disaster through spe-
eial army and navy boards of inquiry
have run into another blank wall.
All of the efforts to learn the
truth about Pearl Harbor have come
to the same end.
The first investigation of the dis
aster, conducted by Justice Roberts,
disclosed little more than the
EXTENT of the disaster-and was
considerably short of the FACTS
even in that respect.
No subsequent Investigations or
reports by any of the agencies of
the federal military,
administrative or legislative-have
enlightened the American people as
to the CAUSES of the disaster, con-
fining themselves instead to capitu-
lation of losses and subsequent
repairs.
The same utterly unsatisfactory
pattern has been maintained in the
present instance.
THE war and navy secretaries have
Il announced that there was nothing
in the findings of their respective
boards of inquiry to justify or sus-
tain court martial proceedings
against Gen. Short and Adm. Kim
mel, who were relieved of their
commands in Hawaii after the Pearl
Harbor attack, accused of "derelic-
ton" and thereafter denied all
opportunity for vindication.
This may very well be true, in
solar as Gen. Short and Adm. Kim
mel are concerned.
If it is true, they have clearly
been the victims of grave injustice,
and ARE STILL THE VICTIMS
OF INJUSTICE for the shadow of
the original accusation still hangs
over them.
But the war and navy secretaries
refuse to tell the Congress or the
American people what the boards of
inquiry DID find relative to official
responsibility for the Pearl Harbor
disaster - and indicate very def

AS A RESULT of this cooperative and volun-
IA tary effort, men at work, aided by increased
units of mechanical energy and better tools, were
able to PRODUCE MORE AND BETTER
THINGS. They raised their output from five tons
of stuff year per nonagricultural worker in 1880
to upwards of % tons in 1880, an increment in
productivity of MORE THAN THREE HUN
DRIED PER CENT.
Without such rise in output per man, it
would NOT HAVE BEEN FEASIBLE to give
workers more and better things in exchange for
a weeks work than they had ever received before.
Without such spectacular stepping up of in
dividual productivity, hope of greatly lifting
average living standards would have remained
mere philosophers dream.
Ii .Oould not haze been practicable for us to
haze added automobiles radios, Doshing machines,
ironers, telephones and other modern comfort
goods to the AVERAGE FAMILY BUDGET rOith-
out such spectacular increment in the produc-
tiUity per yorker.
In order to appreciate the extent to which
these attanments rendered obsolete the virtupera-
tive observations of Karl Marx it should be borne
in mind that he wrote "Das Kapital' before the
modern power age got under way.
THE power revolution knocked into cooked hat
Il Marx dire prediction that the lot of the COM
mon man would grow steadily worse.
The important point is that the rise in the
material wellbeing of citizens does not hinge on
the vaporngs of dyspeptic socologists, or on the
glib promises of politicians, or the pious utterances
of professional humanitarans, but on ENABLING
WORKERS TO BE MORE PRODUCTIVE.

long as the creative mind can conceive of further

THING.
They say, in fact, that what was
found cannot be safely disclosed to
Congress or the people now or at any
time before the end of the war, be-
cause of military considerations.
This is carrying lame reasoning
to the point of fantastic stupidity.
Military considerations had very
little to do with the ORIGINAL sup
preston of the truth about Pearl
Harbor.
They have absolutely NOTHING
to do with it now.
Whatever military damage was
done at Pearl Harbor-and it was
indeed of ruinous and almost fatal
proportions was done before the
sun of Dec. 7, 1941, had set.
TT is doubtful if the japanese ever
Il were much in the dark about what
their attacking forces accomplished
at Pearl Harbor, and it is even more
doubtful if anything they might have
learned from American sources
thereafter would have been of much
profit to them.
At any rate, whatever reason for
military secrecy existed in the be-
ginning is surely dissipated after
three years.
The only thing our continuing
policy of suppressing the truth about
Pearl Harbor does now, or probably
has ever done, is to postpone and
prevent disclosure of AMERICAN
RESPONSIBILITY.
Who are the people who HAVE
this responsibility?
Why are they allowed to keep the
book of facts CLOSED until after
the war, with the obvious hope that
it will NEVER be opened to public
scrutiny and judgment?
If Congress has any regard for
its own responsibility, it will make
it's own investigation of the Pearl
Harbor disaster and publish the full
truth about it whatever obstruc-
tons either military men or politi-
clans may contrive.

(FoouUns Is the Second of Series of Five Artiess)
BY MERRYLE STANLEY RUKEYSER
IN VIEW of the American accent on individual
freedom and opportunity, it is not surprising
that we have gone further than any other nation
in adding to the productivity of the worker
THROUGH AIDING HIM WITH THE TOOLS
OF SCIENCE AND INVENTION.
No other country has gone as far in this
power age in which we live in supplementing the
human muscles of the worker with mechanical
energy.
In $780, when this new epoch was getting
under way, we assisted the average nonagrcul-
tura worker in the United States with as horse
power of mechanical energy.
Half century later-by 1930-we had
stepped this up to 10 horsepower per worker,
and meantime continuously improved the QUAIL

our capitalistic system out of the savings of
