School bells are due to ring
again now that Labor Day is
past and summer draws to a
close. But have you prepared
your children for school, MIR.
and Mrs. America? Especially
those little tots who are start
ing to school for the first time?
The Greater Cleveland Safety
Council. and the National Safety
Council suggest you take them
on sort of a "test flight" to
school before opening day. Walk
with them on the exact route
they will take every day and
learn for yourself the traffic
hazards they will have to face.
Then explain to them during
that walk how best to cross each
street. Remember, in safety, as
in anything else-well begun is
half done.

ing over the radio, Marshal Tito
said: "On the coming 11th No
vember, elections for the Con-
stituent Assembly should be
held. Those will be the most
democratic elections that Yugo-
slavia has ever known. They,
will differ from all previous
elections because at them for
the first time the greatest
masses of the people will take
part, because the women of
Yugoslavia will vote for the
first time, exercising right
they have earned by their strug-
gle and the work that they have
done in the great War of Liberia
ton. For the first time too, the
Army will take part, our peo-
pies Army, having earned the
right of a vote by its heroic
struggle for the liberation of
our land. All persons without re-
gard to age who took an active
part fighting in the ranks of the
National Liberation Army and
Partisan units will vote. Full lib
erty at the polling stations is
guaranteed the peoples of Yugo-
slavia by the most just and most
democratic electoral law that
Yugoslavia has ever known and
which has just been passed by
our Provisional National Parlia-
ment.
"Only persons who have been
traitors to their fatherland will
not enjoy the franchise, those
who were open collaborators
with the enemy, which means
merely those who were traitors
to their country at the most
critical moment in the history
of our peoples. Fortunately
there were very few such per-
sons and their exclusion is a
decision of the greatest justice,
a most just condemnation for
those who were traitors to the
interests Of their country.
''The National Front in which
are united all the democratic
forces of Yugoslavia, that is to
say all democratic parties,
groups and individuals, will 60
to the polls with joint list of
candidates. The opposit o n,
those outside the front, also
have all facilities for taking part
in the elections, full opportunity
to put their case freely to the
people, who will be at liberty to
decide in whom to place their
confidence.
"The N tional Liberation
Front of Yugoslavia must pre-
pare for these elections with all
the seriousness that the present
state of our country dictates, a
seriousness which is an obliga-
ton because of the lives given
and the great sufferings of our
peoples in the course Of the Ma
tional Liberation War, a serious
ness which is an obligation by
reason of the difficult problems
which the restoration of our
devastated country involves.
Particularly, at the present mo-
ment, when the peoples Of Yugo-
slavia are choosing their repre-
sentatives for the Constituent
Assembly, every patriot should
keep before his eyes those past
days, those black days of April
1941, when our land, in mortal
danger, was abandoned by those
who were then governing it and
who again today look for sup
port to the people and try to
suggest that they have a mo-
nopoly of democracy. Today,
when the fate of what we have
achieved by the National Liberia
ton Struggle is being finally
determined, every patr o t
should call to mind that painful
and shameful period through
which Yugoslavia passed from

NNdE CremenuouS dlI, Idnu anu sea
Il operations against Luzon, the
main island of the Philippines, have
begun with the successful landings
on the Lingayen Gulf shore and will
end with the complete liberation of
the great Pacific archipelago.
Gen. Douglas Macarthur, wading
ashore on Luzon with his troops, was
on the verge of achieving the great
est military triumph in American
history-on the scene of the worst
and most humiliating military defeat
in our history.
THREE years ago, Gen. Macarthur
i was leading forlorn cause in the
depths of the Bataan peninsula on
Luzon, one even then hopeless and
destined within few weeks to be
crushed under the heels of japanese
invaders.
In those black days, three years
ago, Gen Macarthur walked among
the men in the foxholes and in the
hospitals and heard them saying:
"When are the planes coming"
These were the men who died, or
survived to endure worse than death
in the infamous "march of death, "
for the lack not only of the planes
that never came but of guns and
ammunition, of food and drink, of
even medicines.
NOV, the planes have come, by the
~ swarming thousands.
Now, the ships have come, in such
mass that they stretched in convoy
for 70 miles along the western Luzon
coast.
Now, the liberating and avenging
armies have come, by the hundreds
of thousands.
To all this, Gen. Macarthur had
pledged his honor and his life-and
to the men he knew had to die.
He left these men against his will
, and under protest, and only in COM
pliance with the peremptory and
wise orders of the President of the
United States.
CEN. MACARTHUR saved Aus
" tralia from japanese invasion,
started the long and hard road back
to the Philippines 5000 miles away,
the longest and hardest path of re-
conquest in the history Of the world.
he fought for long time with
encouragement and heartbreak, but
never without relentless will and
great faith.
When it finally could be done, he
conceived and conducted the remark

Bureaucrats VS.. the People

by y. +.
A NY one who needs to be told what
"A makes a bureaucrat bureaucratic
should consult an article written by
one of them which appears in the
January issue of "Harper's Maya
zine"
This bureaucrat - who unblush-
ingly calls himself that - is Dr.
Robert d. Leigh, a former official Of
the Federal Communications Com
mission, which is one of the most
bureaucratic agencies in Washington
and one of several that got them
selves thoroughly investigated by
committees of Congress.
DR.. Leigh is still sore about the
inquiry-sore at Congress.
So he entities his minum opus
Politicians VS.. Bureaucrats."
And he convinces himself, if no.
body else, that THE BUREAU
GRATIS are really the government
and that the men who are elected
merely to represent the people, to
make the nations laws, to levy taxes
and to dispose of the treasury's
funds have no right to examine the
records or actions of these exalted
creatures.
Ills narrative, he says, els story
IL of CONFLICTS between
POLITICIANS and BUREAU
Gratis :. q case history of the
CHRONICALLY STRAINED rela.
tons between the LEGISLATIVE
and ADMINISTRATIVE branches
of our government"
If DR.. Leigh will kindly consult
THE CONSTITUTION he will find
there is no such entity as an "admin.
istrative" branch of the government.
There are, of course, administra-
tive AGENCIES properly subor-
dinate in their fields to the legisla-
tive, execu tive or judicial
BRANCHES: and if DR.. Leigh will
kindly consult THE STATUTES, he
will discover that NO ADMINS
TRATIVE AGENCY up to and in
Guiding the presidents cabinet-has
any legal existence that is not
derived from an act of Congress.
AS REGARDS his own bureauc-
IA racy, DR.. Leigh-inadvertently
admitting the paramountcy of Con-
gress-inaccurately asserts:
"The Federal Communications
Commission is one of the dozen or
more permanent, Independent COM
missions in Washington having the
function of regulating business,
commerce or labOr-all of them SET
UP BY CONGRESS to protect the
public interest against private in
terests which do not want to be
regulated"
The fact is that none of these
commissions is PERMANENT" if
CONGRESS does not want it any
longer, and none of them is I'm
DEPENDENT" of THE WILL OF
CONGRESS as expressed by law.
Having taken an untenable posi-
ton, DR.. Leigh denounces the recent
congressional investigation in the
very midst of which his hero, James
Lawrence Fly, resigned as chairman
of the Federal Communications Com
mission"
Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1945-01-16

A LWAYS, Gen. Macarthur had a
"A fixed pattern.
When he liberated the Papuan
province of New Guinea, he said:
Air forces and ground forces
Uere yielded together in Papua, and,
in sufficient strength and with
proper naval support, their indis-
soluble union points the tDay to uic-
tory through new and broadened
strategicai and tactical conceptions"
That was the consistent and un-
failing Macarthur pattern, all along
the 5000 miles of his path of recon
quest from Australia to Luzon.
The efficient TEAM of air, land
and sea forces he assembled made the
vital New Britain landings with
gratifyingly and amazingly little
loss of American lives and equip
ment.
CEN. MACARTHUR has NEVER
" needlessly or recklessly, mistak-,
emily or futilely, sacrificed single
American life.
His pattern was to BLAST the
Japs out of their formidable posi-
tions, not to buy them out dearly with
American flesh and blood-and he
has planned all his operations accord
ing to this pattern, and has waited
to carry them out until he could fol-
low the pattern without deviation.
That is the way Gen. Macarthur
swept up the North New Guinea
shore and on to Halmahera and
Morotai, and ultimately to Leyte and
Mindoro-and now to Luzon.
NOV, he is BACK in the Philip.
~ pines, already strongly estab-
lished in central Luzon and sweeping
inexorably upon Manila, Bataan and
Corregidor-names which have stood
too long in haunting accusation
against the American people, and
now are soon to be spoken again with
pride and honor
Gen. Macarthur, for three years,
has been the symbol of PLEDGE
made in behalf of America.
Now, he is the symbol of a glori-
Gus task brilliantly performed in the
service of America.
And, for eternal time, he will be
the symbol of the FAITH in America
for which the men of Bataan died,
and which the valiant Americans who
have now stormed ashore in Luzon
have KEPT.

VI SouioC, NoiSiCoo Ado'
TN FACT, if Congress did not
L possess those inalienable preroga-
tives-if the judicial branch could
restrain Congress or if the executive
branch could coerce Congress-we
would not have an INDEPENDENT
legislative branch of government.
We would not even have constitu-
tional government, and the abolish
ment Of the Constitution evidently is
what some bureaucrats are aiming at.
DR.. Leigh's dudgeon against Con-
gress runs so deep that he does not
restrict himself to the committee
that investigated the Federal Com
munications Commission.
He joins up with the Communists
and the pseudo-iberals by referring
to another House committee in
equally bad odor-the so-called Dies
committee"
The Dies committee was in such
"bad odor" that it has been made
standing committee of Congress by
the House of Representatives since
DR.. Leigh's piece was written.
Finally DR.. Leigh peevishly asks:
what is the proper relation of
bureaucrats to politicians, of admin
istratOrs to the legislative??o
Well, we have answered his ques-
ton for him: and we will do so again.
The relationship between Con-
gress and administrators" is that
of master and servant, of boss and
hireling.
The difference is that the "politi-
clans" in Congress can fire the
bureaucrats by abolishing their jobs,
but the bureaucrats cannot abolish
Congress.
The bureaucrats can only SMEAR
Congressman many of them do.
nR. LEIGH should really have
II known all this, for-according
to his publishers-"as a graduate
student at Columbia he was trained
in PUBLIC LAW and ADMINS
TRATION"; he has been Hepburn
professor of GOVERNMENT at
Williams; he was once president of
Bennington College, a somewhat
left-wingism institution (Which he
was instrumental in organizing;
and he is a member of the Ameri-
can Political Science Association.
Having noted these high aca-
demic distinctions, we know exactly
what is the matter with DR.. Leigh.
Like so many of the professors
whom the New Deal has turned into
bureaucrats, he is very learned
man who needs just one thing-AN
EDUCATION.

1t was, he observes, "a legislative

But" he protests, under our
Constitution there are no judicial
projections against such obviously
improper techniques."
In other words, DR.. Leigh did not

eliminates Congress.
