Atlantic Charter

When Winston Churchill addressed the British Parliament recently he got mixed up in explaining" the contents of the Atlantic Charter, and afterwards admit ted that he had an entirely different docu- ment in mind when he made his mistake.
 Now comes President Roosevelt with an explanation that the Atlantic Charter was never given formal status, that 1t originated at a press conference on the Atlantic Ocean, August, 1941.
 Claims that the Atlantic Charter is of particular importance in mud in your eye" The United Nations never did, and never could be expected to subscribe to this sort of declaration, because very few of them have any conception of the word Democracy. It takes powerful im- agnation to suspect that the British Empire could back up the Atlantic Charter, even though the United States might get behind that document. Appar- ently, according to the most recent tsate- ment from the White House, the Atlantic Charter was not even signed by President Roosevelt and Prime Minister Churchill.

Congress Looks After Its Fault.

A brand new joint committee on mod eration of Congress has been created for the avowed purpose of full and con- plete" study of the Legislative branch of Government. The Committee held it's first meeting before Christmas, and one of it's first acts was to invite members of Congress to offer suggestions on three moderation objectves 1. To strengthen Congress- 2. To simplify it's operation. 3. To improve it's relationships with other branches of the Government.
 Hearings will get under way in Janu- ary. Newspapermen and others are to be invited to make suggestions. The Washington correspondent of this news paper makes this advance contribution, entirely as his own
 The perpetuating of the antiquated seniority rule" should be thrown into the scrapheap. It is a method that per mits second, third and lower grade-Con- gressmen to rise to top positions as Chair men of Committed. A horrible example is the head of the Senate Committee of the District of Columbia. Senator Bilbo became Chairman of that Committee in the midsummer of 1914 because he was the senior member in length of service on that Committee. He Immediately an- nounced his support for scheme to send three million Negroes back to Africa. Us- ing the Mississippi Legislature as sounding board he made long speech patterned after the ancient philosophies of the most radical rebels in the Civil War. In Washington he ranted about number of imaginary evils in the District of Columbia. He hasn't improved any of them
 A dozen other instances are harmful to the country and Congress could be added to the above to prove that seniority rule" should be labeled: S-e-n-i-l-i-t-y rule. The Committee will not get away with it's plans because the political com- plications cannot be handled.

A Gag Grows Tn Brooklyn

Sidney II. Ascher, president of the So- ciety for the Preevntion of Disparaging Remarks About Brooklyn, states in his annual report that the proud and fiercely sensitive borough of Greater New York was maligned 8,014 times by stage, screen, radio and newspaper writers in 1944, as compared with 378l times in 1043.
 We are falling for press agents gag in even mentioning MT. Ascher and his SPDRAB. And we don't for moment believe that Mir. Ascher spent gerat deal of precious time during the past year of decision in counting the libels against his home town.
 But we will say that in even implying that that was all he had to do MT. Ascher has stretched the Brooklyn gag to the yawning point. So we hereby swear off any further variations of the same gag fo rthe rest of 1945. That goes for the Dodgers and you, too, Noel Coward.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1945-01-22

they're from out of town. He looks at their cards, which bear a retailers name but no address. He doesn't know the Roes, and tells them SO. Besides, he explains, he only has enough cigarets to supply his regular card soldiers. The Roes 20 to another store. Same routine, same an- swer. And so on. Or we might take the case of the travelling man, whose ration card gets him no farther in a strange town than demand for one-day laundry service.
 Government rationing has demonstrat- ed that not even penalties for violations can make us scrupulously honest and generous. And, more's the pity, there is little hope that We would be much diff gerent under voluntary, unenforceable rationing. But there's always corncob pipe.
