Proper Washing Keep ps
Umbrellas in Condition

nON'T wait for a dry spell to
~ have that umbrella repaired.
II you try TO dodge the rain
drops that way, you'll most
likely find that there'll be sew
eral rainy spells before you get
that umbrella back from the
repair shop. The thing TO do is
TO keep your umbrella in good
shape.
Never let an umbrella knock
about on the floor OF a closet
and never put il away wet. To
make IL last and give good serv-
ice, shake well after using in
the rain, leave open until dry
and then hang il in a corner of
a clean closet, not amongst all
sorts OF sports equipment and
such.
Light colored umbrellas that
become dingv and soil-spotted
often may be cleaned success
fully AT home by a sodpsuds
shampoo. Before washing, open
the umbrella and brush the
fabric well with a clothes brush
to remove loose dust or dry

An Impressive Performance

It seems to The Star that the Ma
tion's radio networks and individual
stations deserve high commendation
for display of good taste in their
manner of presenting to the Nation
the tragic news of President Roose-
veltS death and his journey through
Washington back to his final resting
place at Hyde Park.
BY spontaneous agreement and
over a period of more than seventy
two hours, hundreds of advertising
programs, carefully rehearsed and
scheduled long in advance, we're
either dropped or revised to elimi-
nate distasteful commercialiSm and
to bring them in tune with the spirit
of the occasion.
AS result, the radio news and
the accompanying tributes to the
late President were delivered on a
plane beftting the dignity of a Ma
tion in mourning. The simple
beauty of many of the programs
and the admirable restraint of the
reporters and commentators estab-
lished mark, in the performance Of
public service, which is the source
of as much satisfaction to the public
as 1t must be to the radio industry.

verv doubtful, for they have little to
hope for personally in so doing. How
ever, he would be a rash man who would
confidently predict what the effect OF
despair may be on any human being.
Nor must we altogether reject the pos
sibilitv that the generals or some COM
bination of generals and conservative
civilian elements, might be able to get
sufficient control over German affairs
to surrender and make it stick. If any
thing like that is in the wind. and there
have been many rumors of the sort
then all the present talk of We day
makes a certain amount of sense: Not
too much sense, for the japanese are
still to be defeated, but still lot more
sense than an interim celebration with
the German war still in progress.
* ~
Unless. however, there is an imme-
diate prospect of complete and effective
German surrender. then it is foolish and
dangerous to fix our minds on any We
day in the immediate future. From
the strictly military point OF view, 1t is
perfectly possible that fighting in Ger
many on a considerable scale may drag
on for months. perhaps into next winter
AS long as there are large numbers OF
desperate or fanatical Germans who
would rather go on fighting than sur
render. or who know that surrender
means for them nothing better than
trial and punishment as war criminals,
there can be no real We day.
The only way that we can bring Or
ganized resistance to an end in Germany
is to break up and destroy the German
fighting elements who are carrying on
such organized resistance. We have
made great strides toward doing just
that, but we have not vet finished the
lob. We have split Germany in two
from west to east, or very nearly so, but
in the north and in the south we are
meeting stiff resistance. We are break
ing up German units and capturing
hundreds of thousands of German SOL
diers, but we are not breaking up the
SIS divisions which are likely to be the
central support of any German last
stand.
German surrender remains a possibil-
ity, providing some German authority
can gain sufficient control Of affairs to
make an effective surrender that we can
accept. and to see that its terms are
promptly carried out by all German
fighting units. But on the face Of present
evidence, such an eventuality seems ex-
tremely unlikely Until it becomes a
fact, any idea of celebrating We day
while American soldiers are still being
killed and wounded by German soldiers
appears to this writer to be tragic
mistake and one which will be bitterly
and Justly resented both by the soldiers
and by their families.

New Congressional Role
BY Raymond Moler

Had fate consulted Franklin D. Roose-
welt as to the manner of his taking off.
he would probably have preferred that it
happen as it did. He had no disposition
for the retired. contemplative life. He
was an activist who preferred to be in
harness to the end. He had no fear of
death. Like T. r. and the courageous
sons of T. R.. Franklin Roosevelt had al
most inconceiva BILE courage in the face of
danger.
was present In Miami on the night
when an attempted assassina ton of the
President Elect resulted in the death of
Mayor Tony Cermak of Chicago, Mr.
Roosevelt was the calmest man there.
He took the stricken Chicago mayor into
his car. held him with one arm and with
the other checked his faltering pulse.
When Mr.. Roosevelt reached the hos
pital, he went in with Cermak and there
remained for hours. waiting for news of
his condition. In all that time there was
no sign of concern about himself.
4 r
Mr. Roosevelt probably accepted the
hazards of fourth term with equal
unconcern about his own ability to carry
through. Signs of failing health did
not make him hesitate. He probably
decided that he would give all he had
to the achievement of his purposes and
let nature render the final verdict.
No doubt the only fear he had was
a repetition of the Wilson tragedy, when
nature took health but not life. Mr..
Roosevelt often spoke of that tragedy,
for he had been in an official position
where he could witness at first hand
the plight in which it put the country
and the administration. Mr.. Roosevelts S
death creates a clear break in admins
trative processes and responsibility can
be freely exercised by his successor.
despite the great loss that will be felt
in our foreign relations at this time,
Enough is known Of President Tru-
mans personal traits to provide as

taxed by the load ne must carry.
What. it may be asked, does that
kind of man DO in that kind of situa-
ton? He cannot spare the time to build
a new social or economic philosophy.
He proceeds with what he has. which
is apparently in complete conformity
with the prevailing philosophy which
surrounded his formative years. That.
IN Trumans case, was individualism
and free enterprise with a liberal in
fusion OF old-fashiOned American poll
tics For purposes of getting America
out of the tOtalitarianism Of war and
back to the freedom Of peace, that
ought to serve accepta bly,.
AS 10 the methods Truman will fol-
low and the people ne will select to
deal with the problems before him We
can reasonably look to the school in
which he learned about national and
international afairs-the Senate of the
United States He knows the Senate
as a group of men with whom he had
extremely pleasant relations. He was
nkeQ DE members OF All parties. He
knows that in body like Congress
there is always one man who knows a
lot more about a particular problem
than any President can ever know. He
knows which Senator or Congressman
knows what He will probably turn
for advice there. He will not tell
Congress: he will ask Congress.
Unquestionably, this will greatly en-
large the power Of Congress- There
will be no specific group of Senators
and Congressman who will be all
powerful with him, but it will be natural
to expect some to have more influence
than others 1t will not be long before
the identity of those will be apparent,
and when il does We shall have fair
measure of the trend of Government
in the wears ahead.

Security Council Member

In declaring recently that our rep
rescntative on the projected World
Security Council must be empowered
to commit us to the use Of force in
case a future aggressor should make
such action necessary, Senator Con-
nally does not propose anything
sensationally new. The late Presi-
dent Roosevelt who was deeply
anxious to make the next peace sys-
tenn a strong one. said much the
same thing during the last presiden-
tial campaign. and so did Governor
Dewey.
Thus. in his foreign policy address
in New York on october 81, Mr..
Roosevelt summed up the idea in
these words: "A policeman would
not be a very effective policeman if.
when he saw a felon break into a
house. he had to 60 to the town hall
and call a town meeting to issue
warrant before the felon could be
arrested And few days later, on
October "a at Minneapolis, Governor
Dewey declared that our member
ship in the security council must
not be subject to a reservation that
would require our representative to
return to Congress for authority
every time he had to make deci-
sion"
When these sta atements were first
made there was a good deal of ex-
cited comment to the effect that any
such innovation would be unconsti-
tutional because Congress alone has
the power to declare war. and the
same point will undoubtedly be
raised again when the time comes
for action on the proposal. Senator
Connally, however. anticipates the
opposition by arguing that the use
of force under the conditions con-
templated would not in fact. be an
act of war but an act to prevent war
and that American precedent and
the Constitution fully support the
idea.
In many respects, actually, the
issue seems more academic than
real. Certainly, in cases involving
the possible use of force. our repre-
sentative on the security council
who would be confirmed in Office by
congressional action-would not cast
his vote without first consulting the
President and the President would
scarcely call for q decision strongly

This Changing World
Bv Constantine Brown

United States Government-no more
than the three other inviting" powers
cannot ask nation which Is fighting
Germany to attend the conference.
China. of course, is unconcerned about
what European nation Is attending the
meeting, but either Great Britain or
Russia can turn down an American
suggestion.
This government may be sympathetic
to the Italian point of view, but 1t Is
believed that If the United States were
to support the Italians on the basis that
they have been fighting on the side OF
the Allies for the last Is months, Ro
mania, Bulgaria and Hungary would
demand representation at San Francisco
on the same grounds. And there seems
no doubt in the minds of the American
diplomats that Moscow would be glad to
sponsor these former Axis satellites if
the United States went to bat for Italy.
But there appears to be an even more
important reason why the American
Government feels that 1t can give only
lip service to the Italians.
Although no boundary questions will
be discussed at San Francisco, the ad-
mission of Italy as a full-hedged Unit
ed Nations member might create some
difficulties later when a peace parley
is discussed and the world security Or
ganzation has taken concrete shape.
According to available information, 1t
appears that among the territorial
penalties which will be imposed on
Italy for Mussolinis participation in the
war is the cession of the Istrian PENN
sula to Yugoslavia
This peninsula including the impor-
tant ports of Trieste and Fiume, was
given to Italy after the World War when
the Austro- Hungarian empire was dis
membered.
Although the greatest secrecy shrouds
the future territorial readjustments' it
has been speculated for some time in
diplomatic quarters that Russia might
wish to establish a strong and power
full Yugoslavia under Marshal Tito. in
cluding not only Istria but also sections
state. These will not be outright an
nexations by Yugoslavia but the result
of plebiscites while Tito's forces still
occupy them.
Should Italy become a full-fledged
member of the United Nations and one
of the charter members of the world
security organization, she may raise her
voice too strongly. While if she is
maintained as poor relative who still
has to prove its Worthiness in the family
of nations. her protests would be stified

One Way to Honor Him

Many weeks ago President ROOSe-
welt announced that the month of
April, 1945, would be set aside" for
a campaign in behalf of the work
of the American Cancer Society
OF course, he did not knoW-could
not gueSS-that he himself would
not be alive to announce the sue
ceSSful conclusion of the drive His
death occurred midway between the
start and the finish of the effort,
but it would be matter of great
regret If his passing were to halt
the endeavor. Like the struggle for
victory in the war and the winning
Of a lasting peace, the crusade
against the mysterious and ruth
leSSly cruel plague which, next to
heart disease, is humanity's dead
llest foe, must go on.
The amount sought by the Cancer
Society is only five million dollars-a
sum which is trivial and inadequate

task of research and education need
ing to be performed Money avail

the causes of malignant tissue
groWthS is estimated to have been
only about one and a half million
dollars last year. Yet during that
twelve-month period 1882 persons
perished of cancer in the District of
Columbia alone. The mortality rate
is rising steadily. If it continues un-
checked, the number of cancer
deaths may be doubled within two
decades.
Meanwhile, progress in medical and
surgical technique is being made
Scientists at the National Cancer
Institute at Bethesda and their COL
leagues elsewhere in the United
States believe that they know more
today than ever previously was known
about the processes of degeneration
which characterize the malady. The
pace of research can be quickened
by increased financial support. A
