CONGRESS- Awake at Last

THE renewed campaign in Con-
l. gress for establishment of army
and navy academies on the Pacific
Coast, as permanent institutions for
the training of military and naval
officer personnel, has received
powerful mp etus from Chairman
Andrew j. May of the military
affairs committee of the House of
Representatives.
The present attitude of Chairman
May is all the more important be-
cause it reflects a marked CHANGE
in his personal position on the sub
ject.
Measures embodying the West
Coast proposal have frequently been
before his committee in past years,
and in fact almost CONTINUOUSLY
before it, but he has never encour-
aged their consideration.
NOW he frankly ADMITS his
~ error, acknowledging that the
nations wartime experience "war-
rants fullest and most FAVOR
ABLE consideration" of the prop
osition.
1t is the highest form of political
courage to admit a mistake, and
Chairman May has amply demon
strated his courage in that respect.
at has become painfully Obvious
:. that the nation is now poorly bal
anced in the matter OF officer train
ing" he asserts.
"Professionai education Is being
giuen on the East Coast, tOhereas the
West Coast has been shoWn by this
war to be MORE IMPORTANT BY
FAR in the careers of officers.
at is unfortunate that both army
and naUy acad demies Were not
PLACED ON THE WEST COAST
YEARS AGO, for officer education
With stress of Pacific situations is
noU seen to be our great need"
The value Of this change of atti-
tude on the part of Chairman May is
impossible of exaggeration.
It should result in immediate and
comprehensive and impartial
Detroit evening times., 1945-06-18

HEARINGS on the subject, which
it has never had before.
Moreover, it unquestionably re-
fleets change in attitude in even
more important quarters.
The opposition in Congress to the
West Coast academies has always
been of two kinds.
THE most consistent and persistent
l. opposition had it's basis in the
ancient traditions of the military and
naval services, which held the vener.
able West Point and Annapolis
academies in such reverence that
only blind eyes and deaf ears were
turned to the inadequacies of those
institutions.
But the most damaging opposi-
tion was the product of the prevail
ing disposition in Congress to regard
the West Coast proposal as SEC
TIONAL in motive.
Both of these sources of opposi-
tion have been refuted by the nations
war experience, as Chairman May
now agrees.
THE army and navy have been
Il compelled by their own necessity
and urgency-by their own despera-
tion, in fact-to establish emergency
officer training facilities in the west
ern states and to rely upon them
almost exclusively.
The national INTEREST in these
reliable and essential establishments
has been so plainly served that any
further talk or hint of sectional ad-
vantage in the matter is reduced to
absurdity.
And our national dependency on
West Coast training facilities will
not end with the war, but will be in
tensified by the coming of peace-a
fact which Chairman May empha-
sizes.
The Congress is in a mood at last
to study this matter on the basis of
its own merits, and in the light of the
nations war experience belated
attitude, certainly, but most COM
mendable one.

Truman Should Stay Home
BY SAMUEL CROWTHER

THE foreign policy of the late President
Il Roosevelt, it is now evident, was not
something which he or any one else could
put down on a sheet of paper and convey
to the Congress and the people of the
United States.
His policy seems to have been a series
of improvisations in which the United
States was used to balance the differences
between Churchill and Stain, with the
weight being mostly thrown in favor of
Stain.
Both Churchill and Stain have from
the beginning known what they wanted
out of this war. The United States has
wanted nothing of a material nature. 1t
fought and decided the war in Europe only
to rid that part of the world from oppres-
sion. 1t is fighting and will decide the war
in the Pacific to rid that part of the world
from oppression and it will take only
such territory as may be necessary for
its future self-defense.
THE aim of Churchill is to preserve the
Il British Empire-which means regain
ing it's possessions in the Orient and keep
ing the ocean ways open to them. The
aim of Stain was at first to preserve the
Soviet Union That aim has so grown that
it now comprehends putting most of the
world into the Soviet Union.
The net result of all the conferences
between what were grandly called the
heads Of vernments-conferences which
took President Roosevelt so often out of
the country and diverted him from cur
domestic problems-has been to achieve
a vast Misunderstanding as to war aims
and to submerge the ideals for which the
American people gave their lives and their
treasure We just do not know where we
are at
To the extent that President Roosevelt
reduced his plans to formal documents to
be submitted to the Congress, or to a
community of nations or to both, Pres-
dent Truman has found that he cannot
keep his pledge to follow the letter of
the Roosevelt policies.
EOR instance, whatever document
Il emerges from the San Francisco con-
ference will not be the Dumbarton Oaks
proposals for a super world-welfare state
maintained by brute force on collectivist
principles.
The world welfare provisions have been
eliminated from the document and the use
Of force has been 80 hedged about that
whatever organization emerges will be
little more than an expensive discussion
group.
The Breton Woods plan, in its passage
through the House of Representatives, be-
came more of stablization fund and less
of an organized charity. The new version
restricts loans from the fund to short
term stabiization purposes. This cuts out
the Russian privilege of borrowing
5000, 100000 from the fund without the
obligation of having to pay any of it back.
1t is reported that neither Russia nor
France will join either the fund or the
bank and that England is lukewarm and
would like to see the whole project grace
fully die
The vast overall world plan of President
Roosevelt was just dropped out and is no
more.
Detroit evening times., 1945-06-18

MO ONE, not even President Truman,
IN apparently knows to what incidental
policies President Roosevelt in his private
conversations committed this country.
Therefore President Truman cannot know
what are the foreign policies he pledged
himself to support.
1t is reasonable to presume that Mr..
Davies was sent to London and Mr.. Hop
kins to Moscow in an effort to discover
more exactly the nature of the Roosevelt
commitments. No one cares to believe, in
view of the Truman record to date. that
either Davies or Hopkins was sent abroad
because of especial diplomatic fitness or
out of desire to appease Russia.
For at San Francisco, President Truman
straightforwardly supported Secretary
Stettinius and Senator Vandenberg in
flatly denying special privileges to Russia.
CINCE no one knows the extent of the
~ Roosevelt ON m I m is, no one
knows whether Stain is honestly present
ing what he believes to be commitments
or is taking advantage of the confusion to
pretend commitments that never were
made.
But it is certain that if President Roose-
vet had adhered to the American trad-
ton, STAYED in the White House and made
his policies in consultation with the many
able and experienced Americans who were
available, the present confusion could not
have occurred and we would know where
we stand.
Our people did not make the long and
bloody march into Germany in order to
make Europe safe for communism.
We did not fight our way up through
Italy in order to make Soviet puppet re-
publics out Of Yugoslavia, Austria,
Czecho-Slovakia Romania and Bulgaria.
VXIHEN we assured Poland that it
w would have government of its own
choosing, we did not mean it should have
a government of Russias choosing.
We landed in North Africa to free those
peoples from Hitler domination and not to
make the country safe for a Russian
domination through a puppet French gov
eminent
We are fighting in the Pacific to give
the Asiatics the right TO determine their
own lives free from the domination of
Japan. We are not fighting to make Asia
safe for communism.
II President Roosevelt committed this
country to a policy of appeasing Russia
at all cOStS ana reSdTuleSS Oh lne COHSe-
quences, it is the plain duty of President
Truman flatly to reverse that policy with
such clarity that there can be no further
doubts concerning the nature of Americas
foreign policy.

him to stay and conduct his foreign
negotiations through a corps of ambas-
sadors and ministers of such ability and
responsibility that they do not have to be
supplanted or reinforced by special, per-
sonal emssaries.
Our foreign policies, if they are to mean
anything, must grow out of foreign poll
cies. That being so, we have the right to
expect-and perhaps to require-that the
president of the United States be just
that and not also the president of the
United Nations.
