Roosevelt-Saint Or Sinner

Republican papers glorying today in publication of excerpts from article to appear in Life magazine which purpors to furnish reliable information that the late President Roosevelt knew of imminent Japanese attack in the days before Pearl Habor The report goes on to say that candidate Dewey and his aides had this nfor nation during last Falls campaign but were deterred rom using it by their willingness to put the nation above party and heed the request of General Marshall that they not mpe our war effort by revealing the fact we had cracked the Japanese code.
 No president in country's history has been SUD- iected to such vcaon after his death as has Franklin Roosevelt His political enemies who hated him so cordially during his life continue their attempts to persecute him 1n death The mass of less partial American voters as well as the devoted millions who times elected him president feel that the time has to settle once and for all the question of whether FDR saint or sinner
 If these posthumous political he hears sathood If however these and other similar charges pc true and his feet not only clay but soaked With mu
 he deserves to be dscredted In any case let America ana the world have the truh-about Pearl Harbor and aoout Roosevelt
 A recently appointed Congressional committee is to press further the inquiry into the facts about the Jap sneak attack and possible official negligence contributing to its success Let the closet doors be opened wide and kee- ion falls out nations head must honestly hang in shame But nothing concealed let the caping critics who seem unwilling to the honored dead rest in peace silence once and for all their attempts to dscret prominent and De- loved leader.

The Message That Wasn't Sent

So it turns out that Lieut.-Col (then MaJor) James Devereux and the Marine garrison on Wake Island didn't send that radio request for more Japs
 There is yet indication of the messages source !ts most unlikely that circulated as Joke TOT Heaven knows the American people and their armed forces Were feeling iovia in December of 1041 More likely It was an instantaneous inspired bit of propaganda designed to bolster morale and typfy the American spirit in the race of difficulties
 Itwas courageous audacious message-but it wasn't as complimentary intended. The Marines on wake showed bravery that equaed and surpassed the sentiment of the message they didn't send But it was desperate and doomed bravery. .., nent they weren't foohardy enough to radio for more Japs it is evident from Colonel DevereuxS story that they considerably reduced the number o Japs coIrontng them spite of frightul odds and would have Kept on doing so as long there man left to flre gun their commanding officer had permitted it. AS 1t was Col one Devereux had to give the cease firing order three eS before 1t was needed.
 Perhaps "Send us more Japs' served its purpose n 1941 It showed the quality of comparative handful o Pacific defenders It gave to at home moment or prle and cheer It exempfed for all the fctiona bravado SO out of key with the true situaon the spirit which evident all along the bitter road 10 Wctory
 There came time when men could perhaps call Tor Japs But before it came there must nave been many times when the cry Send us more men and guns and planes and ships That request surely was III the
 minds and on the lips Wakes defenders And because It could be granted there Americans who died neeo esy ragcay there and at other Pacific outpostS or died slower and painful death in Jap prison camps or survived the eney torture and starvation TOT nearly four years
 So "send us more Japs" will not go into the history books with other military epigams But history will record the true American situation in the Pacific in Decempe 1941 And that situation will be- should be- rememoereo by all of us the inevitable agitation for small Army and Navy and small military budget begins again
 It will be- or should be, remembered by our military leaders when opposition to unified command increases and pleas heard for continuing the separate services confusion conflict and lax operation led to the nor rble awakening at Pearl Harbor and the urgent necessity of uniting team to save the country.

to get excited about scientific research Organlzng a subcommittee on military affairs, he prepared science mobilization" bill It proposed making grants of Federal money to aid approved research projects The bill was notable in that nobody paid any atten- tion ~
 In January. io4s, Kilgore revised his pill putting in a new section patent control Briefly ne pro. financed research should not become private prop" erty but should be freely accessible to anyone wanting to use them.

 In August, l944, Kgore prepared third draft of his bil Changing the name of his proposed organ. izaton to National Research Foundation to make more attractive to scientific schools.
 Then President Roosevelt took an interest, having some advanced ideas of his own on this subject Tn November the President wrote Vannevar BuSh, di- rector of the wartime Office of Scientific Research

Calm After The Storm

The hurricane and northeaster finally played them. selves out late Tuesday The combination of the two worked havoc along the Middle Atlantic and New England coast line Miami again the target for periodic uproot ing and terrifying bueting, with damages in the billions
 Our own particular section and city took heavy beat, ing from the storms the bent twigs broke and small branches snapped off, In the main however we oo not experience big storm damage You might term it, gen. eral stormy weather
 It is not too likely that the Autumnal Equinox which arrives Sunday the of the weather storms at this season are not unusual and very often oc cur at the time of the seasonal change.
 In its passage the hurricane got far as Virginia then passed out of the picture Many were fearful of f the devastating hurricane and envelopng tidal wave September l 10S8 which introduced the Autumn season m somewhat violent Telephone calls were falry ounstat such questions asked asare we going to nave \ hurricane where Is the hurricane now?
 All is now quiet on the Eastern coast with the usual Autumna appearance that follows good buffetng and soakine- -dlapidated gardens and general untdiness caused by falling leaves and broken twigs

THE PUBLIC WANTS ME"
(Hartford courant)

Among the more pleasant little fictionS perpetuated by those whose business is politics is the modest but clear-cut asseveration by aspirar1ts for ofIice that there is veritable groundswell of public opinion de- nanding that they place their serv- ices at the disposal of the people. By modest statements to the eftect that "a lot of the boys seem to want me-" or "a lot of people have been writing and calling me-" tn impress sion is conveyed that reluctance must soon give way to acceptance, These aspirants seem always to be attuned more accurately to what the man in the street is thinking than any public opinion poll.
 There are, two major groups, the first of which might be termed the wistful vista type. Wistfully they see a rosy vista of themselves be- ing thrust upward by an eager pop ulace that has suddenly become aware of their statesmanlike qual- ities. Whether 1t be the mayors chair or the lesser aldermanic seat that lies ct the end of that pleasant vista does not change the mental mechanics whit. These are the wistful aSpirants who, while saying "A lot of the moys seem to want me" actually mean, T hope lot of the boys want me-" It is similar to the Coue treatment of Day by day in every way I am getting better and better" By saying 1t often enough many aspirants actually come to believe 1t Is true. Indeed, sometimes 1t does come true.
 The second, far more sophisti- cated group might be called the canny type. Instead of going around quoting what the "boys" want, this far more practical fellow actually gets the "boys" to go around saying 1t. Any similarity between what the boys are saying and what John O. Public actually wants is, however, purely coincidental. The ground swell discerned by political aspir- ants is merely a tiny ripple on the surface of public opinion made by "the boys" scooting back and forth like water bugs.

Views Of The Press

strength. It isn't mere war-weari- ness. Tn one large mid-western area the war veterans are reported as less than one-tenth of the total movement. It seems to be mostly D feeling of being tired of city life, especially in the large and medium cities.
 One odd feature of the situation is that most of the back-to-the- farm enthusiasts don't seem ever to have had any agricultural exper- fence. They are just hankering to farm, and they want to start right away. From which fact 1t is easy to forecast that many of the en- thusiasts are going to get into trouble. For farming of any kind Is nothing to learn overnight. Suc- cess on farm usually requires more knowledge, skill and persistence than city jobs.
