A Note Of Sorrow

In the midst Of yesterdays celebration there
was note of sorrow. Flags went up through
out the city-but at half mast-the period of
mourning for President Roosevelt not having
passed. What pity the man who had planned
the victory in Europe could not have been
spared to share in the celebration.

TOP % THE MORNING

An ideal is above price. 1t means the
difference between success and failure.
If a man measures life by his accumula-
tions, these usually fall short of his ex-
pectations, but if he measures life by the
contributions he has made to the sum of
human happiness, his only disappointment
Is in not finding time TO do all that his heart
prompts him to do. Whether he spends his
time trying to absorb from the world :,
or in an effort to accomplish something of
value to the race depends upon his ideal.

LONDON, Dec. 14.-Charges that

many japanese troops in China and
Manchuria were made in Commons
last night by 1t. L. j. Callaghan.
Laborite M. p, who asserted that
America had embarked on q plan
of economic aggression in the Far
East"
1t. Callaghan demanded that Brit
ish Foreign Secretary Bevin make
very strong representations" at the
Moscow Foreign Ministers Confer
ence concerning American plans in
the Far East.
He accused the United States Of
apparently supporting what he
called Generalissimo Chang Kai-
shek's policies Of using former jap
anese puppet armies against the
Communists and appointing pro-
Japanese officials.
He also suggested that the Ameri-
cans should withdraw all their
troops from Manchuria. and that
the United Nations or Britain, Russia
and the United States should as
sumo the responsibility Of conduct
ing democratic elections throughout
China now. ....
Minister of State Philip Noel
Baker said he utterly repudiated"
the suggestion that the Americans
have any intentions of establishing
political control over the Chinese
government.

Senate Action Gives

Reorganize Agencies
nv the AssoeiatsA Press

b the Associated Press.
Power to reorganize Government
agencies has been granted to Presi-
dent Truman nearly seven months
after he wrote Congress that the
authority was needed without
delay"
The Senate late yesterday voted
down, 40 to %, emphatic demands
by Senators Vandenberg, Republi-
can, Of Michigan, and La Toilette,
Progressive, Of Wisconsin, that the
compromise legislation be sent back
to the House. Then 1t sent the
measure to the White House.
Senator Vandenberg complained
because the Federal Deposit Insur-
ance Corp. Is not on q list Of six
agencies exempt from reorganiza-
tion.
Senator La Toilette sought ex-
emption for the Federal Power
Commission, which regulates elec-
trio power rates and returns.
Both Exempted Previously.
Both had been placed on the
touch-not list when the Senate first
approved the program.
Senator Murdock, Democrat, of
Utah reminded the Senate that the
President had asked for no exemp-
tions at all, and that the compro-
mise measure was the best that
could be obtained in the give and
take" of Senate-H conference
that adjusted differences between
the bills Of the two chambers.
Senator Vandenberg pointed to
the agencies which could not be re-
organized. but to which additions
could be made. These are the In
terstate Commerce, Federal Trade
and Security and Exchange Com
missions and three agencies dealing
with railway labor.
Under what theory is the SEC
more sacred from tampering with
than the FDIC?" demanded Sena-
tor Vandenberg. Nothing is more
important in these moments OF flux
than that the American people
sleep nights in respect to their
banking system"
Sees No Cause for Fear.
Senator Murdock, who led the
Senate conferees, told Senator Van
denberg it was little unfair to
assume that the President of the
United States will do anything to
injure the agency protecting bank
accounts"
Other Senators pointed out that
FDIC, along with the Federal Com
munications and Tariff Commissions
and Veterans Administration, were
placed in a class requiring separate
reorganization plans, II any.
Senators ODaniel, Democrat, Of
Texas and La Toilette joined 81 Re-
publicans voting to send the bill
back. Eight Republicans teamed

Edgar Hoover reported today.
Mr.. Hoover, chief Of the Federal
Bureau of Investigation, told the
International Association Of Police
Chiefs that close coordination Of
law enforcement agencies through
out the Americas wrecked plans Of
spies and rendered the saboteur
powerless.
LAW enforcement was so COM

that a number Of apprehended
espionage agents were allowed to
operate under our complete control"
he stated.
I'm that way we not only were
able to prevent information Of value
from getting to the enemy, but we
learned a great deal about their
requests for specific information
along certain lines," Mr.. Hoover re-
ported.
As chairman Of the association .
Committee on international Rela-
tions, the FBI chief cited these re-
suits from joint wartime efforts Of
law enforcement agencies In Latin
| and North America:
1. Not single act Of foreign -di-
rected sabotage against the indus
trial United States was successful.
2. More than 1,500 spies, saboteurs,

Italy Based Troops
Sent to Pacific

Return to civilian life for Allied
troops now in the Mediterranean
theatre will not come until after
the defeat of Japan, Gen. McNarey
has revealed.
McNarey, deputy supreme COM
mander of the Mediterranean, re-
ported that shipping in combat and
service troops to the Pacific has
already begun and that some troops
will be sent to the Pacific by way
Of the United States.
It generally was known that en-
cheering and other technical
troops, as we'll as certain air force
personnel, had been embarking for
the Pacific for several weeks, but
McNarney's speech was the first
confirmation that combat troops
were on the way.
MANY DISAPPOINTED
McNarney's speech was broad
cast throughout the Mediterranean
theater Tuesday, but released for
publication in the Army newspaper
Stars and Stripes and other news
papers today.
He said that his answer to persis-
tent questions from Allied troops
as to when they would be permit
ted to 60 home would be disap-
pointing.
But it would be unfair II I were
not absolutely frank in answering
that question even If it is unpleas-
ant" he said.
TROOPS ARE DIVIDED
All troops in the European and
Mediterranean theaters have been
divided into groups for future dis
position, he said.
The first group will consist of
men to be retrained overseas and
required for occupation, the ire
mendous job of re-establishing law
and order in conquered Europe and
of moving out our supplies and
breaking up installations" he said.
In the second group will come
combat and service troops who will
be transferred to active theaters
In the Far East"

This past year of global war has witnessed a
diplomatic and political struggle probably as
important and as problematical and the military
one.
Fo point out few of the problems: the
call of General Stilwell from the Obi theatre
the British Intervention in Greece; the defeat OF
the lsolationists in our recent election and
Roosevets gaining of the fourth term; the
breaking of diplomatic relations with Argentina;
the attempts made to settle the Polish-Russian
boundary dispute: the establishments of world
peace organization: and the problem of military
governments in liberated countries.

How has the Negro taken part in these
global struggles? The drafting of Negroes has
