DRUG DICTIONARY IN ENGLISH

CHICAGO, June IL. (UP)-The
new U. S. Pharmacopoeia, the Off
cial dictionary of drugs and chemi-
Gals, will give the names of drugs
in English. Previously, the names
of all drugs were in Latin, but the
new December, 1915, issue will be
simplified, giving English titles first
and Latin second, according to An
other Language.

ally investigated by field men Of
the OPA office Complaints come
from landlords and tenants, the
majority coming from the latter
source. Edmunds said.
Character of the work assigned to
this office is shown by the record
of inspections in addition to the
complaints inspected. Once each
month all hotel rooms, trailers and
auto courts in Imperial county are
inspected to ascertain if ceiling
prices are properly posted.
RENTAL CHARGES
A chart at the OPA office reflects
the equalization of rent control. AS
an example an average 5-room fur
pished house has ceiling rental
value under rent control of $50
monthly. About five per cent of
landlords were caught with lower
rental rate on March l, 1943, some
as low as $25 monthly. Others from
there on up to the maximum of $50.
On the other hand, few charging
as high as up to $75 for the same
type dwelling when rent control
maximum date was fixed, are still
receiving this amount.
Many people come into the I'm
perial Valley OPA rent directors
office monthly to ask for increased
in rentals due 20 improvements
made These cases are investigated
and approved when the cost is shown
to be justified, Edmunds pointed
out.

the War VIGOROUSLY Make the Peace PERMANENTLY Bring Our Boys Home PROMPTLY
The Victory i'm Europe

Pacific basin and conquered the
Philippines and Guam and Wake,
and were strongly based in the Aleu-
tians, and were only barely stopped
at the shores of Australia.
SLOWLY and bloodily, we pushed
- the japanese out of the advanced
parts of their stolen empire, and
finally out of the Philippines and
Guam and the Aleutians-and now
we are steadily reducing the inner
fortress of Japan itself.
But all this we have done-and
have been forced to do-with what
could be spared from the conflict in
Europe.
AS long as that desperate situa-
tion prevailed, we could not hope to
defeat and destroy Japan.
That is what we can and must
and will do NOW.
Until it is done, our war is not
over.
Our American boys are not
COMING HOME until it is done.
They are going on fighting and
DYING until it is done.
A CCORDINGLY, this is a trium-
phant day-with the war in
Europe at an end.
But it is also GRIM day.
Only part of our job is done.
The biggest, hardest, bloodiest
job still REMAINS.
Victory in Europe has not taken
us OUT of war.
Let us now get ON with the bitter
struggle against Japan, and put all
our resources and energies into it,
and WIN it.
Then, and THEN ONLY, will
America lend the war VIGOROUSLY,
make the peace permanently and
bring our boys home promptly
which are the things for which we
are fighting.

n Good Appointment

The post office department is not
of minor Importance in the structure
of federal government, but of very
great Importance.
In the national interest, it should
be competently administered.
1t employs many thousands of
people who perform the most vital
services to the nation.
TT SHOULD not be purely politi-
Il cal agency and instrument, ad-
ministered solely for the advantage
of the ruling party.
It is indispensable to the nation
and the people, and it should be ad
ministered exclusively in the interest
of the whole nation and all the
people.
Consequently, the political prece-
dent which President Truman has
followed in the appointment of Mr..
Hannegan has occasionally worked
to the detriment of the post office
department in the past and is always
fraught with some danger.
THAT it is not fraught with danger
l. in the present instance is due
largely, and fortunately, to the happy
circumstance that Mr.. Hannegan
seems to be as we'll qualified for his
important cabinet post as he is for
his political responsibilities.
In strict sense, of course, the
postmaster general OUGHT to be
the best qualified man for that job
the President could find.
That President Truman has found
such a man in his national chairman
is his good fortune, politically and
otherwise.

cerity of those who have taken the stand
that world peace could be had only by
concentration of economic and political
power in the Big Three. 1t is possible to
understand why the pressure was put on
the Congress to pass the Breton Woods,
the food organization and the trade agree
ments bills in quick time so that they
could be delivered here as accomplished
facts and put under the Dumbarton Oaks
aegis
We have seen what happened to the
world when a Big Three representing
Germany, Italy and Japan tried to take
over. We can picture fine world-al-
though not one in which some of us would
care to live-ruled by Big Three repre-
senting the United States, Great Britain
and the Soviets.
The picture would change if only the
British and the Russians did the ruling
and hardly any one would care to have
the Russians do the ruling alone.
Yet if we set up three, in the end only
one will come through and that one might

mean by failure" the not setting up of an
organization which can be warranted to
prevent future wars.

no honest man will say it.

Therefore the tendency is to change
the present documents to make them

THE appointment of Robert E.
Hannegan as postmaster general,
the first cabinet change under the
administration of President Harry
S. Truman, has met with general ap-
proval.
Mr.. Hannegan has the special
political qualifications which attach
to the postmaster generalship as a
matter of precedent and, in addition,
has very special merits for competent
performance of the important office
itself.
Since it has been the consistent
practice, in Democratic and Repub-
lican administrations alike, to link
the national committee of the ruling
party to the cabinet in the person of
the national chairman, there can be
no objection to the Hannegan ap
pointment on that score.
He served with great success as
chairman of the Democratic National
Committee in the last presidential
campaign, as the outcome of the cleo
tion amply attested, and moreover he
demonstrated sound organizational
and executive and administrative
capacities as well as political acumen.
r
THE success of Mr.. Hannegan in
Il the cabinet post to which he has
been assigned will, of course, depend
much more upon his capacities for
the job than upon his political con-
nections.
Thus it is important to the de-
partment he will head, and to the
country, that he is so widely con-
sidered and acknowledged to have
the essential capacities.

Thoughts OH V.Day

The cheering crowds pay tribute to cause
But in their thoughtless zeal they seldom pause
To weigh the awful price in blood and pain
Brave men have paid that they may laugh again.
The living raise their glasses high and drink
Deep draughts of Freedom; do they ever think
That every priceless privilege they enjoy
Was bought and paid for by some lonely boy
Who stumbled onward through a rain Of lead
And found his peace among the tragic dead?
Oh Justice, guard their graves and seal them tight;
Please let them sleep through the eternal night
Lest they should see their sacrifice acclaimed
Indrunken orgies; they might be ashamed,
And the illusions they once held so high
On Liberty and Justice, too, might die.
God make worthy of the blood they shed
Let solemn reverence sanctfy our dead

Gan FRANCISCO, May 9
~ Are you confused by the
San Francisco c onference?
Many persons are. In fact, you
could stop 100 average Ameri-
cans along any Main street in
the land and get almost as many
explanations of what is going
on here.
One answer to this general
bcwilderment lies IN the con-
flicting interpretations placed
on remarks made here by re-
sponsible parties in press con-
ferences. The reporters and the
radio men hear statement
made, try 10 reason what 1t
means. and rush TO their type
writer's and microphoneS for
fear of being scOoped There
are many interpretations.
Take Molotov's last press con-
ference, for instance The first
question asked of him was, in
effect, "Are you Russians going
10 help us lick Japan? Every
American wants to know the
answer 70 that one.
Molotov'S interpreter reduced
the question 10 Russian and
whispered ii in MolotOvS ear.
Molotov stood up and replied
in Russian, which only two or
three of the 400 assembled re-
porters and radio men under
stood.
TIIEN the Interpreter took
L over. He said that Molotov
had said that the Soviet has
already made known its inten-
tions toward Japan. That's all
he said. Last month we all
knew was the deadline for an
option clause in the Russian
japanese nonaggresSion pact.
To keep the pact from auto
matically being renewed for five
more years a dissatisfied party
had to speak up one year in
advance. Russia spoke up It
said that the pact would end
lin April, 1876 because Japan
had been unfriendly TO Russia
by helping the Nazis.
The guy who asked the queS-
tion then asked Molotov 10
restatc RuSSias exact stand at
the time il served notice on
Japan that IL would drop out Of
their nonaggresSion pact a year
from now.
Molotov funnelcd back a
reply 10 the effect that he could
not trust his memory. This was
absolutely all he said about
Japan. and nobody could get
near him 10 ask further qucs-
tionS.
Well, came away and wrote
a piece that there was no
change in Russia's outlook on
Japan at this time. Indirectly
/ was saying that Russia has
announced that one year from
last month it will no longer
have a nonaggreSSion pacr with
Japan-not that that definitely
means Russia will 60 10 war

THE victory in Europe has been
l. finally and totally achieved, and
is now officially proclaimed.
1T rs A GLORIOUS VICTORY.
It has been brilliantly and mag
nifcently achieved.
The men of the American armed
forces and their Allies fought SUI
perbly and heroically to bring it to
victorious conclusion.
Let us honor them in their hour
Of triumph, and continue to honor
them when they have been restored
to their peaceful lives among us, and
hold them in perpetual honor-for
they are the architects of the peace
and security for which we have
longed, for which we have worked
and prayed.
VICTORY in Europe is a long
stride toward peace throughout
the world.
The American people do not need
to be reminded that it does not mean
all war in the world is OVER.
Grimly we realize, in consequence
of the capitulation of Germany, that
we are now obligated and at last
enabled to turn our WHOLE atten-
tion to OUR WAR.
The war in Europe was long and
hard, and after we were in it we had
to fight and win it.
But no American has ever for
gotten HOW we got into the war.
It was JAPAN that shattered our
peace on that tragic December morn
ing nearly four years ago, and de-
spoiled our American soil and spilled
the first American blood.
Because we had to fight Germany
and Italy, too, we very nearly LOST
the war with Japan.
We had to make a dangerous
choice, but fortunately it succeeded.
While we fought in Europe, the

CAN FRANCISCO, May 9EThe position
~ of the American delegation is very
difficult and it remains to be seen whether
they will have the courage to throw over
all that has gone before and to make new
start, or whether they will compromise
with words here and there so that the re-
sulting document will be so harmless that
any one can sign it.
This document will then be offered
with some fine speeches to the effect that
perfection cannot be attained at one Sit
ting and that time will do the perfecting.
There is something to that argument
provided that the start is i'm the right
direction.
TNHE embarrassment of the delegation
l. and to some extent of the whole con-
ference grows out of the ridiculous pro-
paganda led by our state department and
joined by many fervent organizations,
that Dumbarton Oaks was practically
handed down from above on tablets of
stone as the one and only way to peace.
The story goes this way Science has
linked up with war in such terrible fash
ion that the next war will see weapons so
powerful that they can cross any space
to destroy whole cities There are pictures
of new kinds of Hitlers cunningly plan
ming to push button and annihlate a
continent. 1t is even said that the next
war will destroy civilization and this car
ries great weight with those who think
we still have some civilization.

war forever
