Judge by Their Record

From the Toronto Star.
No Japanese with blameless record
who does not wish to leave Canada
should be compelled to leave Canada.
Canada permitted them to come here.
Their children have been born here.
The 1941 census indicated that there
were nearly 10000 people Of enemy
origin in Canada besides Japanese num-
bering less than Is 900. All these people
are to be Judged upon their own record
In Canada, not upon what some one
else, living In some other country, has
done or failed to do.

Government Cufeterius

The problem of how to "hold the
line" on prices in the face of wage
increases has presented itself right
in the Federal Governments own
front yard. 1t is a problem that
touches the lunch-money budgets
of Federal employees of the very
agencies now wrestling dizzily with
wage and price spirals and other in
f1ationary factors. The question has
arisen close to home as a result of
the 20 per cent increase in wages
granted employees of Government
cafeterias as of January 2. Govern
ment Services, Inc, the Federal
corporation which operates the
fifty-four cafeterias in the various
Government departments, maintains
that the higher wages cannot con-
tinue unless there is more income
from food sales. During September,
October and Observation-Disclosures the
wage boost went into effect-the
cafeterias were operating at loss,
according to Frank w. Hoover, man
ager of Government Services, and
he estimates that only a 10 per cent
luncheon price increase will save the
cafeterias from going into the red
this year.
Despite the dark picture painted
by Mr.. Hoover, the Government EN-
ployes' Council of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor has come forward
with demands for even lower food
prices than prevail today in the
cafeterias, coupled with elimination
Of the present profit-sharing system
under which half of the net profits
go. the Treasury and half to the
corporation for maintenance, i'm
provement and expansion of gov
ernment welfare and recreational
services. The union also calls for a
"fact-finding" procedure of deter
mining prices, claiming that Gov
eminent Services operated at
profit of more than a million dollars
during the past year and half. But
if the prof1t-sharing plan should be
abolished, the charter and some of
the fundamental objectives of the
agency would have to be drastically
changed.
AS set forth in the original GER
tiflcate of incorporation in 1927,
the division of profits had two
fold purpose: To reimburse the
Treasury, in lieu of rent, for use of
Federal buildings and services, and
to provide funds for maintaining
and improving such welfare and
recreational facilities as tennis
courts, swimming pools and the
like. Mr.. Hoover asserts that pay
ments made to the Treasury in 1945
represented profits not for that year
but for a four-year period preceding
1945. The cafeterias never have
produced more than 3h per cent
profit, he says, and since January 2
have been operating at substantial
loss. AS for fact-flnding, the books
of Government Services are audited
by the Controller General, whose
reputation as fact-finder is well
known to Federal officials.
II the situation is as represented

can be understood by every officer
and enlisted man and that, most
important of all, will be strictly
adhered to in every theater and by
every echelon Of command. Nothing
short of such definite, authorita-
tive clarification is likely to put an
end to existing confusion and chaos
over rehabilitation.

Argues the Arab Case Again

Argues the Arab Case Again
To the Editor of The Star:
1nferences regarding the true senti-
ments OF the Arabs towards the Amer
lean people in general and President
Truman in particular, made in the dis
patch from Jerusalem by Malka Ramist,
are as erroneous as they are malicious
The Arabs cannot forget the debt they
owe to American schools, colleges and
institutions throughout the Middle East,
which have made large contributions
towards the Arab cultural renaissance.
They also remember with gratitude
American help and assistance in the
final liberation of the Levant
1t Is true that the attitude of some
Americans toward the Palestine Ques-
t IN, so inconsistent with their attitude
toward similar problems, has given rise
to some disappointment among the
Arabs. This disappointment was all the
more acute because of the implicit faith
which Arabs have in the American ira
ditional sense of justice and love of
liberty. However, the Arabs feel conf
dent that once the Americans come to
know the facts, these traditional char
acteristics will ultimately prevail.
Concerning the equally malicious in
ference with regard to alleged Arab
to draw attention to the fact that the
definite contributions in manpower, as
well as material resources made by the
Arabs toward the final defeat of Nals
and Fascists, have been given recognition
by all the United Nations. 1t is also per-
half century have been battling with
overwhelming odds for freedom and
liberty are the last to have any sym
pathy with an theology characterized by
tyranny and persecution. Nazi ideas are
not only antagonistic to the very essence
of Islam, which is the religion of the
overwhelming majority of Arabs, but
are also opposed to the traditional sense
of tolerance and fair mindedness which
have characterized the Arabs through
out their history.
1t cannot also be true that Arabs
should wish for any misunderstanding
with any nation in the world, least of
all the United States of America. AS a
new nation engaged in the tremendous
task of liberating and uniting the Arab
countries, the Arabs realize that their
hope for this independence and unity
depends entirely on peace and under
standing. K. KHAIRY,
The Arab Once.

Promotion in Order?

Promotion in Order?
To the Editor Of The Star
The Star for January had an article
concerning the Junior Police. an organi-
zation fathered by Policeman o. A.
Cowan.
I've read several other articles about
the good work done by Policeman Cowan
and his efforts to combat juvenile de-
linquency, but has the Police Department
ever honored him by promotion? I
don't know this man, but it seems to me
he could have been promoted quite some
time ago for his civic efforts.
MORRIS LEBOW.
Commends New Year Editorials
To the Editor of The Star:
I am writing to thank you as well as
to congratulate you for the two editorials
appearing in your issue of January /.
"Year of Decision" and New Year, 1916"
Each is classic. worthy of the highest
praise. C. w. BROOMALL,
Further Praise for Cartoon
To the Editor Of The Star:
wonder how many of the regular
readers of The Star took special account
of the cartoon that appeared in The
Star. December 23d issue?
In my opinion it is the greatest car
toon that has appeared in century of
newspaper work. AS long as that chair
remains vacant there can be no peace
I wish Mr.. Berryman's drawing could
be reproduced in every publication in
the world. It is timely warning of
immeasurable Importance. If we are to
survive.
Every American owes to Mr.. Berry
man vote Of thanks and appreciation
for his splendid contribution in the
cause of peace. 1t was a noble inspira-
ton. LOUIS F. DILGER.
Editors Note: Many readers have
shared Mr.. Dilger's enthusiasm for
the cartoon by c. K. Bergman pub
lished in The Sunday Star, Decem-
ber 23. Copies of it now are avail
able at Room 724, Star Building.)

Letters to The Star
Holds Supervisors to Blame
for Alleged IneAiciency

To the Editor Of The Star:
The delay by the Veterans Admin
istration in mailing checks to the 80
veteran students of the sixth class for
national service officers at American
University, which was reported in Sat-
urday's Star, comes as no surprise at
all to me, civilian with more than Is
years service in various branches in
the departmental service in Washing
ton.
OF course, as Gen. Bradley is reported
to have stated, this delay is due to in
efflciency-like practically all the delays
in Government service to individuals
entitled to and in greatest need of such
services. But in the case of the girl who
could not reach the file at the top of
high cabinet and placed some papers in
the lowest pigeonhole, where they were
lost for some time, it seems to me that
the responsibility for that example of
inefficiency belongs with the girls i'm
mediate supervisor, who should have
provided short girls with stools; and
If the proper kind of stool was not avail
ub1C, tllC oupcItlSOT SIlOulQ nave seen
that one was improvised with no unnec-
essary delay and that due precautions
for safety were used until the proper
kind could be obtained.
In my experience as a Government
employe I have seen innumerable ex-
amples of disservice to the public and
of inexcusable waste of public funds
because supervisors and minor officials
were more concerned with their own
personal desires and ambitions than
with their obligations as public SER
wants. While it is obvious that effective
administrative procedure requires the
fullest degree Of cooperation of the
subordinate with those in authority, on
the other hand there is abundant evi-
dence that Government service could
be greatly improved If each supervisor,
minor official and administrator made
the efficient and prompt completion of
his tasks his chief purpose during official
hours and strove to reach his goal by
securing maximum results from his
subordinates through intelligent, con-
scientious and sympathetic cooperation
with them. G.. M. S,

| Everyone looked up at the young
man standing in the doorway. He
Wore civilian clothes. He stood
quietly, watching, his right hand in
his pocket. He had thick fair hair,
and intent eyes, and there were
deep lines around his mouth. He
was a tall man, a little too thin.
His face was fine and stubborn, and
remote.
Apparently no me else had seen
him until then. Jenny went scarlet
with excitement. She cried, EIDE

EIDE spoke to him. She said,

He went back to the table with

said, a fine man, a credit to the
town. He welcomed Steve homo
again. He talked like q couple OF

But Mary didn't. She widened her
brown eyes and produced an en-
chanting smile. She managed
things SO that Steve sat beside her.
She said. with disarming frankneas,
