The Japanese people never having been taught democracy before, can
be expected to catch the democratic idea only when they receive demo-
cratic leadership. Some japanese try to provide it, but against enor-
odds. Not only were the government and the election machinery
in the hands of the old, familiar forces; members of the rank-andfi file
electorate who stopped to think about it doubtless figured that most
of the Allies and Gen. Macarthur must have wanted it that way.
1t is difficult to e what was gained by holding the election at
this time. The decision to do so was taken by the Far Eastern Commits
sion over the opposition of Russia and New Zealand. 1t may have been
thought that simply the spectacle of a election Notwithstanding the
sight CT women voting for the first time-would encourage love for
democracy. But surely to hold such a election and then extol it as
free and democratic" does little for democratic prestige.
This failure, of course, is not final. The Far Eastern Commission,
u government and Gen. MacArthurs headquarters are not debarred
from starting at any time truly to weight the scales for democracy
To do so, however, they must support formation of a new leadership

Why We Need at Leost q

Case of a Denver Veteran Confirms the Plea
Plea Made by Organized Labor for
liberuiized Wuue ndu

undoubtedly read the story from DenVer-it appeared with
pictures IN practically every daily newspaper in the Iand-about the
returned veteran and his wife, who have four tiny girls, including
trpets, and who discovered they couldn't keep the home fires burning
on $50 a week. Therefore, they proposed to offer two of the little ones
Tor adoption. Immediately the bighearted Coloradans went to the
rescue and arranged matters so the family may remain intact and in
comparative comfort.
Unfortunately, all American youngsters, who ar endeavoring to
are not publicized. They live in novels; they and their children are
disaster.
Fifty years ago, when Denver was still on the frontier, a young
man would maintain his family on $50 a week and even arrange to
buy a home, but not any more. Today $50 a week for the head of the
family is a mere subsistence wage" and scarcely that.
Nevertheless, w e find members Of Congress and leaders of great
industries, which Lave piled up fabulous reserves, protesting against a
65-cent-an-hour minimum with all the vigor they might be expected
to display if they were opposing some evil thing which threatened the
safety of the republic.
Just take your pencil and a piece of paper and figure it out. If a
man works 40 hours a week at IS cents an hour, he will collect S26 on
Saturday night, and some of that will go for taxes. If he works 48
hours a week, he will do a little better. His total will be S31. 40, but
he will still be on the mere subsistence" level.
Should he get sick o r be deprived of employment for ever a week,
he and the members of his family will face catastrophe, unless some
friend Or relative comes to their rescue.
These are cold, hard facts. They can't be challenged. They can't
be escaped. 1t is shocking to know that millions of our fellow Ameri-
cans are denied even this minimum. Congress should make the passage
