NAME CHANGED

We note that upon the suggestion of Alaska Dele gate E. L. Bartlett and others that Secretary of the Interior Harold L. Ickes has changed the of the Alaska Indian Service" to the Alaska Native Service"
 We have been under the impression that the of the office has been for some time the Alaska Office of Indian Affairs
 This has been done because the office whatever it's correct name has been, not only Indians but also Ale1ts and Eskimos
 However, the word native, correctly means an inhabitant of certain region who has been born in that region and therefore the term in Alaska would take in a good many whites who natives of Alaska.
 At any rate, we don't think the old name troubled the Eskimo or the Aleut great deal.

Law and the Man
Washington Post

Washington Post
 We are indebted to MT Mark Sullivan for callin our attention to the speech of Senator Wayne Morse on a subject to which in the past we hay given considerable attention In daily reading the Congressional Record we had somehow missed il Senator Morse, in persuading the Senate to attach provision for appeals courts against WING sanction to be appointed outside WING control made thes observations:
 There is agrowing up in this country a trend toward |. administration of law by the executive branch of Government through administrative officers who, in my judgment, do not have their opinions and views suf- ficiently checked by other branches of Gov ernment I think it is dangerous trend
 It is proposed that the man whose regula- tions may be challenged by citizen shall be given the power to set up his own tribunal to judge whether or not he, in fact, has been unreasonable in the exercise of his duties under the act
 think it is very bad principle of gov ernment to give the power to pass upon regulations to a tribunal appointed by the administrator himself.
 As result of my experience with some of the appeal tribunals have no illusion with regard to them, and should like to pre- vent the repetition of such mistake in this particular bill.
 We know how they would work in prac- tice. We know that in practice the chairman of the War Manpower Commission would, by and large call the shots under the proposed act . believe (ths) irrespective of who occupies the position. I intend no personal reference The citizen should have protection from the arbitrary exercise of power. Repetition is a sin to be guarded against in this me-saving world, but words of wisdom like Senator Morse's require reiteration

HEART AND HOME
BUSINESS AFFAIRS

Assurance that returning Service men will have suitable employment should spur interest in technical training. Trade acquired in the armed forces will be valuable in postwar days, when there is to be a greater demand for workers to re- build cities and their institutions than at any time in history.
 NATIONAL ISSUES
 Uranus, the planet of liberty, en- courages our leadership of the world. Conservative and reactionary groups may impede advancement but the challenge of 1945 is to be met with splendid power.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
 Diplomatic and political problems of France this year loom with evil portents. Neptune in the mid- heaven denotes confusion in gov ernment. Misunderstanding with the United Nations may be many.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of fair suc- cess if ambitions are harnessed.
 Children born on this day pro- bably will be clever in unusual ways. These Aries folks may be strongly individualistic.

PAT HURLEY'S BLUES

When handsome ex-Secretary of War Ambassador Maj. Gen. Pat rick J. Hurley went to China, the State Department made him dis card the uniform and two silver stars of major general and dress as all other American ambassadors in plain civilian clothes.
 This didn't please Hurley at all. But he conformed. However, when he got back to Washington and went in to see the President the other day, friends say that Pat had in mind getting special permission from the President to wear his Army uniform while Ambassador in China.
 Perhaps the s ate Department tipped off the White House about Hurley's sartorial ambition, or per- haps it was just accident. Anyway, the President beat him to the gun.
 Well Pat FDR said to Hurley who was wearing blue serge suit, you certainly look fine in blues. "
 Hurley stammered something about the fact he thought his Army uniform was more appropri- ate. But the President replied:
 oh no, Pat, you look fine in blues"
 That ended that. Hurley is going back to China wearing civilian clothes

GEN. CLAY BLOWS OUT

GEN. CLAY bLOWS OUI 1 Not many people realized it, but while the President and War Mob- ilizer Brynes were at Yalta, the
 chief backstage dictator of the U. s. A. was Maj. Gen. Lucius Clay, Deputy War Mobilizer, the man who has great deal to say about curfews, manpower, baseball horse racing, conversion of fac tories, and whose civilian powers are tremendous.
 Gen. Clay is the man now se- lected by President Roosevelt to be U. s. Dictator" of Germany after the armistice. Gen. Clay is lowing out of Washington after a tough showdown fight with the War Mobilization Board, a committee representing business, labor, farm CTS and the public.
 This Board was created by Con- gress to counter balance the tre- m e n d ou s powers given Justice Byrnes and his office. But, as fre- quently happens, Byrnes, and es- pecially Gen. Clay, got into the habit of ignoring their civilian advisors.
 Things got so sharp that the Board barred Gen. Clay from its meetings, also passed a resolution d anding showdown with Byrnes and warning him that they were not rubber stamp agency The Board was not consulted on the curfew, on horse racing, or on various other moves.
 Final showdown came at a re- cent meeting when Byrnes was asked to be present. Board mem- bers were discussing the problem when the popular eX-Supreme Court Justice entered
 Come in," greeted Board Chair man ex-Governor Max Gardner of North Carolina, we're talking about you"
 Eric Johnston, dynamic President of the U s. Chamber of Com merce, then outlined the Boards grievances.
 We have two things in mind" :" he said We think if this Con- mittee is going to function eff ciently we have to know what your plans are. And also we believe you could be better represented than by your present deputy, Gen. Clay"
 If it will make you gentlemen feel any happier" Justice Byrnes immediately replied, T can tell you that I was able to get Gen. Clay from the Army only for four months and in short time he is due to go back to the Army. Tn my opinion" Byrnes added, Gen. Clay could run General Motors or command Eisenhowers Army. But. as far as this picture is concerned, the General is out"
 Despite Byrnes' defense of Clay, insiders say that his rough-shod tactics regarding civilian economy made his exit imperative. There fore, the President decided that he was just the man to place over the government of Occupied Ger many.
 ! The working Byrnes took the criticism of his War Mobiliza- tion Board with good grace and they are now cooperating much better. The Board is studying ways

FRANKFURTER PICKS 'EM

It looks as if Justice Felix Frankfurter is going to pick the next Solicitor General-the man who presents the Governments cases before the Supreme Court.
 There has been a long back stage controversy over this inn portant post Democratic Chair man Bob Hannegan wanted Demo- cratic Vice-Chairman Oscar Ewing to get it, and at first Roosevelt backed him up. However, Attorney General Riddle stuck to his ground that the lawyer for the Aluminium Corporation of America should not be Solicitor General of the United States. Roosevelt in the end agreed
 After that, Justice Frankfurter telephoned the President, putting in a plug for Dean Acheson, Assistant Secretary of State. Acheson, one of the best lawyers in Washington
 never has been too happy in the State Department, undoubtedly would make an Al Solicitor Gen. eral. He is not the man proposed

Hospital Center Bill
Indorsed by Forum
In Columbia Heights

The Citizens Forum of Columbia
Heights last night Endorsed the bill
of Senator Tydings, Democrat, of
Maryland which proposed the es-
tablishment of modern, adequate,
up-to-date and efficient hospital
center in the District. The resolu-
ton was introduced by DR., Lyman
F. Kebler, chairman of the Safety
and Health Committee. Copies of
the resolution will be sent to Sena-
tor Tydings, Representatives Bilbo,
Randolph and Coffee, and also the
Federation of Citizens Associations.
Another resolution proposed by
DR.. Kebler, requesting the Commis-
sioners to maintain the Upshur
Street Hospital as center for fin
tshing the treatment of nonactive
eases of tuberculosis, thus lessening
the number of uncontrolled cases
that may be spreading the disease,
was passed.
The group also went on record as
favoring the selection of Washing
ton. against Baltimore and Rich
mond, as a television experiment
station for the Eastern seaboard
and favored the placement of the
necessary television towers in the
District. Proposed by Spared A.
Wood, first vice president, copies
of the motion will be sent to the
Federal Communications Commis-
sion. the Zoning Commission and
the District Commissioners.
John Clagett Proctor, Washing
ton historian, spoke. He told of
the beginning of Columbia Heights
and recalled some of his boyhood
experiences in the area.
The Rev. Estel E. Perry, pastor OF
the Church of God, Sixteenth and
Taylor street NV, gave the invoca-
ton.
