BUYING POWER MAKES JOBS

There is considerable publicity being
given to suggestions that income taxes be
eased for business and corporations, but
so far as we have been able to see, little at
tention is being paid to taxpayers in the
lower-income brackets.
The argument is made, in behalf of
business, that reduction of income-tax lev
les will enable them to provide employ
ment. This seems to us to be somewhat err
roneous, because employment will only be
provided by continuous demand for goods
manufactured e. at<9k %tfA9@1
The way to provide this steady buying
is to make certain that millions of consum-
ers have money to spend. A reduction of in
come-tax levies upon citizens in the lower
brackets will automatically give additional
buying power and this, in turn, will mean
additional employment.

"DRAMAnc swIFTNEss'

AS the Japs took the blasting of their
country, from sea and from air, lying
down. last week, it has given an impetus
to conjecturing about the approximate
time when the Japs will sue for peace. 1t
is likely to come with dramatic swiftness',
as a newspaper in Sydney, Australia, said
early last week.
But why aren't the Japs striking backs
That question was asked repeatedly in Key
West last week, and it was Key Wester
we heard remark, They're taking it lying
down.
During the two attacks by Admiral
Halsey's Third Fleet, with the Jap COM
nand having full knowledge of where the
fleet was. the Jap airforce did not attempt
to bomb it. Only one plane, on reconnoit-
ering trip. was seen. and it was shot down
by American airmen when it was 80 miles
from the nearest American warship.
And carrier-based American planes,
while plastering their targets, met with no
resistance in the air, and the anti-aircraft
firing. was light. Saturday only Ia Jap
planes were sighted, all of them on the
ground in an airfield in Honshu, and II of
them were destroyed.
Two reasons are given for the Japan
csc lack of resistance while the fleet was
bombarding shore installations in Honshu !:
First, the Japs were unprepared because
they had thought the American fleet could
not approach close enough to lob shells to
the shore; secondly, and this pertains to
enemy aircraft, the constant bombing of
Jap airfields and the destruction of so
many of their planes - they lost 1900 at
Okinawa-, have left them impotent in the
air.
Jap broadcasters have Dragged about
the thousands of first-line planes the
Japs have "in reserve" to strike when the
Jap command decides the time is "oppor-
tune, but, as American military experts
have pointed out, when could the time be
more opportune than when an American
fleet was only few miles off the Jap shore?
We think the view is well taken that
the Japs are on the point of suing for peace,
and that they are likely to take that action
with dramatic swiftness".

THE SWORD MUST FALL

There is a lot of eye-wash in the cur
rent discussion of the unconditional sur
render policy of the United States in re-
cards 20 the war against Japan.
The war was brought about by Japan
.ese militariSm, espousing the principle that
the sword could rule supreme. The essense
IT our present policy Is that those who took
to the sword shall renounce it.
The Japanese militarists set out to
dominate the Far East by brute power, con-
vineed that, If they failed, they could es-
sablish such force that the western world
would negotiate a peace. Every line OF
uropaganda that issues from Tokyo about
the great cost of defeating Japan, etc. evi-
dences the faith of the militarists that the
sword will yet buy terms.
Faced with this fanaticism, this faith
In power Of arms, il is essential that the
present conflict absolutely break it, once
and for all. The only way this can be ac-
eompliShed. as we see K. is to compel the
rabld militarists of Japan to acknowledge
the impotence of their weapons by AFFECT
and absolute surrender.
II may be that IL will cost more Ameri-
can lives. during the present war, to i'm
plement the unconditional surrender" poll
ey but we do not believe, for single mo-
ment. that Il will cost more American lives,
ing that by winning a conclusive victory
nov we will probably avoid the necessity
Of fighting another war.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-While
the commercial aviation emphas-
is these days is all on the interna-
tional airways and who is going
to fly them, a movement has
started in Congress to speed air.
line service to small communities
over the nation from Saco, Me-.
to San Juan Capistrano. in you
know where.
While we like to think of the
United States as country well
blanketed by the airlines, the
blanket doesn't cover much more
than our knees.
There are 800 cities and towns
now on main, trunk or feeder
lines of commercial companies. 1t
sounds fine. But they serve only
about a third of our total popula-
ton. There are $500 other COM
minities which have applications
before the Civil Aeronautics
Board, and are eager to take off
the minute CAB flashes the green
light.
To hurry this along, Rep. Jen-
nings Randolph, the Wset Vir-
ginian who is about the best
fried commercial aviation has in
Congress, has introduced a reso-
luton in the House requesting
CAB to open the throttle in grant
ing these applications: =
The resolution actually is only
a declaration of intent-a "vote
of conference.-the it's believed
that by going on record as favor
ing the quickest possible action
on the applications, Congress can
provide the stimulus that will
prod CAB along.
If CAB is tagging, it isn't be-
cause they want to hold up serv-
ice to the smaller communities,
said Josh Lee, former senator
from Oklahoma and now men,
Der of the board, when I asked
him about it.
There are three things that
have tended to slow the board
down: ~ 1t has had to drop
almost evrything to act on grant
ing international routes or else
see the United States take a
back seat in world aviation. (2)
The law requires that open hear
ings must be held before action
can be taken on any application
and open hearings require time.
(3) The board has to proceed
cautiously for fear of binding
the treasury to airrnail commit
ments beyond what the law al
lows-in other words, every COM
munity served has to be survey
ed.
The CAB would like to see
some additional legislation pro-
tecting it in the grant of charters
to new lines or the extension of
existing ones. Rep. Randolph
doesn't think any is necessary.
but will whip up some if his
present resolution doesn't get the
job done.

Make music through the day,

That they seem to Danish care.
There travellers bring their weary

To lay them down to rest,
Upon the antique golden sands
OF glorious Old Key West.
There fleecy clouds seem at times
to almost touch the sea
Which shimmers in the bright
sunlight
Like an idle fantasy.
Then there's the satin moon at
night
Shining through the trees
Casting shadows on the ground.
And bringing back memories.
Reveries of yesterday

Surrounded by the sea;
But I love it nevertheless
Because it's home to me.
