HIROHITO'S POWER
(San Diego Union)

Warning from certain japanese clc-
nents that "hot-headed" military lead
crs might ncite revolt in the Jap armies
against Allied occupation raise again the
question of the emperOr's actual au-
thOrity Our assent to his retention was
predicated on the suppositiOn that the
Son of Heaven would be able to enforce
the complete surrender Of Japans
armed forces and that his influence
would be sufficient to induce peaceful
compliance on the part of the pOpulace.
Implied in the warning against revolt
is doubt Of the emperors power among
japanese leaders themselves.
Actual revolt, Of course would only
result in the slaughter of many thou
sands more JapS, the OuSting Of Hiro-
hitO and the imposition Of more drastic
terms Of peace. 1t might cost the lives
of many Allied men, but no matter how
fanatical, would be wholly futile
If there is an actual trend toward re-
volt among the Japanese army and civil
population, common sense would Sug-
geSt that it be directed against the forces
which started Japan on its ill-advised
campaign Of conquest. 1t is the army
and the civilians who are now paying
the fiddler A revolt that would elm
mate the war lords and the greedy in
duStrialists might be wholesome for
Japan and the world at large But a
revolt against occupation will mean only
more and worse trouble for the victim
lied population.

TOO MUCH TO EXPECT
FREE VOTE IN EUROPE

If any nation offers a pattern of free
and unrestricted ballot suffrage, it is
the United States And so it is natural
that this nation should want to see the
free and untrammeled ballot become the
instrument Of the peoples in the Euro
pcan nations so recently released from
Nazi control to establish democratic gov
crnmontS. In our capacity of aiding
these unfortunate countries, in fact in
discharging an obligation to do all in
our power to bring about this needed re-
form, il is diScOUraging to note that we
are not receiving the cooperation expect
ed and to which we are entitled.
The first of these countries to get the
ballot is Bulgaria and Moscow is entirely
out of step and out of tune with the in
tentions and aspirations of our govern
n1ent in attempting to guarantee the free
ballot. Rumanla, comes next and the
same situation prevails in that country
Thus comes the first serious rift be-
tween Russia and the western Allies, as
Britain agrees with Washington that the
forthcoming elections in Bulgaria will
not permit full and free expression of
the people. And again, Southeastern
Europe becomes the disturbing element
it has been for decades
Here, it appears will be the first real
test of any world organization set up to
establish and maintain tranquility and
to create new order of things that will
wean nations and the world away from
the spirit of war

THOSE WHO DESERVE PRAISE

That 50 many millions Of travellers
should have been transported by rail
each month for several years in relative
safety is far more notable than that a
catastrophe should occur on railroad
which had not had a passenger fatality
since 1919-as recently in the Northwest
'Man-failureS' still occur, and even the
most rigid rules and the most thorough
safety appliances have not yet reached
that stage Of perfection where they are
flaWleSS.
When a rear-end collision occurs it is
due to the failure of one, two, or three men
Jointly. When any train slows down, with
another following, the first rule is for the
flagman Of the leading train to drop off
fuses. When his train stops, he must 60
back, equipped with lanterns and tOrpe-
does, placing the latter on the rails, if he
has time, and using his lantern as an
alternate warning.
When a following train does collide
with one ahead, despite these various
WarnlngS-SometimeS even with autOma-
tic block signals-it indicates either lax
ity on the part of the flagman or inatten-
tiOn on the part of the two men in the
locomotive of the following train But it
is the unheralded attention to duty and
rules by the mai iority of trainmen, rather
than the occasional lapse of the few,
which is the more noteworthy The for

TEMPTING FATE IN
RECKLESS DRIVING

California again takes a top spot in
the record Of traffic deaths with 35
counted in less than a week Of unre
stricted use of gasoline. While other
states have not revealed their records
for the same period, and while some
may present even worse results, ours is
enough to emphasize the gravity of the
whole situation. There could be no con-
ISOLATION even if other areas had more
deaths Nothing is gained by compari-
son. The fact remains-we are con-
fronted with problem. 1t is our con-
Germ to devise some means of halting
this slaughter within our own borders.
First survey Of accidents indicates that
excessive speed was the chief factor in
tho fifteen fatal accidents. SO it ap-
pears that a third restriction not re-
moved along with removal Of gas ra-
tioning and lifting of the 35-mile limit,
had little or nothing to do with the
crashes Traffic officials feared that
inferior tires on thousands of cars would
increase the danger Of accidents. but
such is not the case in the current mis-
haps. That the old tires still is a menace
goes without saying.
Excessive speed even with the best of
tires and the best Of cars is simply tempt
ing fate. It always has been a major
factor in traffic accidents and it will re-
main 50.
The safest Of mechanical devices is
worthless if the human element is not in
tune 1t safely can be held that any
driver who drives too fast is a "crazy
driver"

SeryiCemen Look
For New Jobs,

SACRAMENTO, Aug. "a. up
Only about 20 per cent Of the vet-
Grams now receiving discharges IN
California expect to return to their
old jobs and twice as many will be
looking for new jobs, Maj. Ivan
McCollum Of the Camp Beale Sep
aration Center, said Friday.
Speaking at a meeting Of the
California Veterans Commission.
McCollum said there has been a
slight rise jim the number Of men
planning to return TO their old Jobs
since the japanese surrender and
a further increase may be en-
pected.
Nearly l8 per cent OF The veterans
want part or full time education,
McCollum said, adding that he
doubted if present school facilities
could accommodate that large
number.
Thirteen per cent of the service
men are uncertain about what thev
will do on discharge, four per cent
will return to operating their own
businesses and three per cent want
to 90 into farming.
Many of the veterans have raised
their sights too high in looking for
new Jobs" McCollum said He cited
as an example a 24-year-old Air
Force officer earning about $1,000 a
year in the service, who said he was
willing to accept a $4,000 a year
job"
Il don't know where he is going
to get it" McCollum added.
McCollum said his figures were
based on interviews with 1906 men
discharged at Camp Beale during
July and the first three weeks Cf

Headlight Dimming
Asked of Motorists
By Highway Patrol

Due TO the alarming INCREASE OF
highway accidents caused by glar-
ing headlights, Horace Moore. state
highway patrol superintendent. this
week called upon all motorists to
observe the headlight dimming pro
visions Of the state highway code.
Seven fatalities of recent date
are recorded in the patrols statis-
tics as having been caused by glar-
ing headlights. State highway
laws contain specific provisions
pertaining to binding headlights
and set up penalties ranging as
high as a $500 fine or six months
in Jail or both for that type of traf-
fic violation, Moore pointed out.
All highway patrolmen have been
instructed to be on the alert for
violations of this type. as well as
other traffic offenses. Moore said.
