HOLLYWOOD, Jan. 81. UP)-
Two hundred leading citizens of
Hollywood have demanded that the
police commission clean up "honky-
tonks, gyp joints, indecent arcade
peep shows. liquor dance places and
dives" which, it said, preyed on
servicemen and school children.
John B. Kingsley, chamber of
commerce president, said he and
other Investigators called on some
of the "hot-spots" and found them
"unspeakably vile" Some places
charged fabulous prices even for
soft drinks and short-changed GUS
toners, he said.
"Racketeers, jail-birds, honky-tonk
operators and gyp artists have rec
ognized their golden opportunity
and come here to pick the carcaSses
of servicemen," he charged.

great effort to be a clean, friendly

PECULIAR CASE

Sacramento Bee)
The situation with respect to P. G.
Wodehouse, the creator of Mr.. Jeeves,
is becoming more intriguing.
When this English prisoner of the
Nazis began broadcasting over the Ber-
lin radio in 1941, he was warned by An
thony Eden, British foreign minister, of
the serious consequences of his coopera-
ton with the Nazis.
Now it is announced in London Wode-
house will not be brought to trial because
the crown has no legal case against him.
Moreover, the British government is
seeking an explanation from the French
government as to why Wodehouse is be-
ing kept under surveillance in that coun-
try.
His past conduct would suggest the
French are showing better sense than
WodehOuSe'S own countrymen.

BRIDGES CASE WAITS
HIGH COURT REVIEW

Announcement by the u. S. Supreme
Court that it had granted a review of the
verdict of the Court of Appeals in which
the deportation order against Harry
Bridges, west coast labor leader as an
undesirable citizen and as a member of
an reorganization geared to overthrow
the government" was expected general
ly 1t was within his rights to carry his
case to the nations highest tribunal.
There may have been some surprise in
connection with the courts refusal of
the request of the Communist Political
Association as an interviewer in the hear
ings on the review of the case. It is note
worthy that the court turned down the
CPA move It's share could only have
served to becloud the issue and carry
out its scheme to herald propaganda
through the dignified channels of the
tribunal.
The Bridges case should be considered
and cleared on it's merits, and the decision
to conduct a review without interviewer
or interference only follows the rules
of judicial procedure.

HALSEY'S TRIUMPH
Los Angeles TimeSl


"In five months Admiral William F.
HalSey'S Third Fleet has inflicted greater
destruction upon the japanese than any
other fleet in history has caused to an
enemy" So runs a news dispatch de-
scribing Halsey's triumphant mastery of
the seas in period which saw 80 enemy
warships and 563 merchant and support
ships destroyed for grand total exceed
ing 100000 tons, plus the destruction
of 1870 enemy aircraft, plus the bombing
and shelling of enemy naval bases, mill
tary installations and industrial areas,
and plus the attacking of 33S enemy air
fields. The American Fleet and its air
planes control the South China Sea-in
itself a magnificent accomplishment.
In that time Halsey has sailed 51,65O
miles, equivalent to more than two trips
around the world.
The Jap navy's biggest loss came Oct.
"a to 26 in the second Battle of the Phil
ippine Sea during which, among other
things, American planes sank the Jap
battleship Mushashi, vessel as big as
the German Bismarck. With the moving
of Admiral Nimitz's headquarters to
spot probably in the Marianas, further
developments may be awaited with con-
fidence.

SOCIAL SECURITY

Each month 100000 Americans re-
ceive social security payments totalling
S20,500,000.
Benefits would be higher, Arthur j.
Altmeyer, board chairman reported. eX-
cept that more than 100000 persons past
65 have not applied, preferring war jobs
to pensions.
However, $4,000 iobless workers col
lected about S63 100000 in unemploy-
ment benefits last year, chiefly because
of plant shutdowns. About 250,000 re-
ceived general relief, 95 per cent drop
from the depression peak of 5,579,000.
Biggest fear of the board is it may be
swamped by industrial cutbacks in view
of 4,500,000 new accounts set up in 1914
for persons working for the first time.

JUST WHERE IS THIS
MAN-POWER TROUBLE?

Certain congressional surveys, probes
or what-not have tilted the surface of
the man-power situation that long has
been apparent, and if these hints were
followed up instead of undertaking at
this late date to draft man-power, readily
might solve the problem.
1t simply leads to the tremendous
waste of the workers time among the
millions now engaged in war output.
More and more it is plain that the belat-
ed work or fight" order, or, as it ap-
pears on the congressional calendar uni
versal service, by-passes the real trouble,
the cure for which Congress and the ad-
ministration lacks the courage to apply.
Of course eXtravagant statements have
been made as to the free-for-all loafing
permitted in war plants from shipyards
to the smallest installations turning out
war material. But if such statements are
divided by three, they still disclose wan
ton disregard for a full days work for
hired worker Some observers, and
not few of these are men who have quit
war jobs in disgust, declare that the
tactics permit as high as three men to
a job that one man could accomplish, or
three times as much time put in as is
necessary to turn out a given job.
1t matters now where the blame lies
for a condition that never has been de-
MED or intelligently defended. If cor
rected it stands to reason there would
not be the call now to take men from
obviously critical tasks, although indirect
ly connected with war material output
In civilian work brackets there are
many thousands of men and women, too
who are doing the work of two and even
three in order to leave a reservoir of war
workers available.
AS Congress progresses in considera-
tion of the universal service program as
set up in measures before both houses,
it appears that even the slogan work
or fight" is not sufficient to speed enact
ment of the plan, and there is every
evidence that whatever bills are voted
will be shadows only of the original
plans.
There can be no brief, of course, held
for the wilfully idle at this time in the
progress of the war. There is more than
the hint of doubt if such persons could
be made to do good job of fighting. And
the record indicates that it actually is
not more fighters needed just now, but
more supplies turned out Would the
man who refuses to work or fight, be
dependable or worth 'his salt if COM
PEELED to join one or the other class?
As Congress bickers and rows and dis
putes over the measures might it not be
more to the point and more productive
of the aims sought to get full measure
of work from those already engaged in
war production?
