keystone of the PIun

brlgaQler General GOTQOu n.
Young, the Engineer Commissioner,
has done a very helpful thing in
putting down on paper list of
what Washington will need, in the
way of capital expenditures, to over
come deficiencies in municipal serv-
ices brought about by delayed con-
struction and a 40 per cent increase
in population.
The total cost of the program he
outlined is in excess of a hundred
million dollars for construction
alone, with an accompanying in
crease in costs of operation. Even
spread over period of six years,
the additional amount required to
make the plan effective is $50, ,000, 900
q year, an increase of we'll over so
per cent in current revenues avail
able for expenditure. 1t is difficult
to believe that any such immediate
increase will be obtainable.
A value of the estimates, however,
lies in the opportunity to select from
ali of the many projects listed by
Geperal Young those which are most
essential and to establish a system
of 'priorities in undertaking them.
The six-year period chosen by Gen.
eral Young is convenient but by
no means an arbitrary length of
time in which to divide the annual
outlays. The chief benefit of such
plan Is to obtain more exact eSti-
mate of the revenue needs for the
postwar period in order to reach
some agreement on possible sources.
In the opinion Of The Star it would
be reckless to consider such pro-
gram without some determination
by Congress of its future fiscal policy
in relation to Washington. AS every
body knows. the policy followed for
the past twenty years or so has
been to utilize the increased revenue
from local taxes to reduce the
amount of the Federal payment.
Continuation of this policy can only
mean that Washington will become
the most heavily taxed city in the
country while offering, in municipal
services, little or no gain.
General Young's purpose in draw
ing up the six-year program is to
offer local citizens, and Congress,
an orderly grouping of the things
that must be done. But the key
stone of the whole program is a
fiscal policy which offers some guar
.. .antee that the expenses of the
Nation and the community will be
divided on fair and fixed basis
and that the local taxpayers dollar
will be spent for needed improve
nents, not spent to relieve the con-
trolling Nation of its own obliga-
tions to the Capital.

cal, and technical consequences which
they may not wholly accept. But they
can accept much less easily the insecure
prospect Of dependence on the irregu-
larities of the American economy, with
Its political demands. It may indeed be
doubtful whether Russia is yet capable
Of developing the backward countries
Of eastern and central Europe, and Of
digesting their increased production,
while her own development and recon-
struction have still far to go. But 1t is
not within the bounds Of political or
economic possibility that, In return for
American aid, with no guarantee Of
American markets, these countries
should stake their future on the renewal
OF such hazards as they formerly ex-
perienced as traders and debtors.
Mr.. Revin himself has pointed to the
practicable way in which the nations
can work together for the peace and
prosperity" which they all seek. mot
only must we meet, we must under

only by mutual respect for each others

rate; and 1t Is only by their collabora-
ton, and by the example set thereby to
other countries and to the contending

Neither Is there salvation In any
other: for there Is none other Name
under heaven among men whereby
ye may be saved" Acts, iv12.
A prominent layman in q recent
magazine article challenges us as q
Nation to give evidence that we cher
ish our spiritual and intellectual
freedom and that we show our will
ingness to sacrifice to preserve them.
His significant admonition is that the
first demonstration Of the seriousness
OF our intent be made at the religious
level.
The priceless possessions OF reli-
gious and intellectual freedom have
sprung out of the fertile soil of Chris
tianity. Only under the impetus Of
the Christian faith have men known
the glorious liberty of the sons Of
God. The founders of this country
journeyed hence so that men could be
Tree to worship God according to the
dictates Of their own consciences. This
freedom has meant that Protestant,
Catholic and Jew have enjoyed the
privilege of praising God, each in
his own way. Likewise, the nonbeliev-
er has been unmolested by any inqui-
sition. Under the flag of our country
religious freedom has become a
priced possession Of our people and,
lest we forget, bequeathed to us by
great sacrifice. Intellectual freedom
is the daughter of spiritual freedom.
The chains on the minds of men are
broken once their spirits are free. Out
of this has come advancement in
science, government and the arts, as
well as in the sphere Of religious
thought. These freedoms are ours by

have much effect, for the bulk OF the
removals apparently took place some
months before. That Moscow may
yet decide to return what it has
taken seems doubtful in the ex-
treme, even though the Chinese, who
fought for years against Japan and
who are sovereign in Manchuria, are
certainly far more entitled to it
than the Russians. Consequently,
If the region is to recover industri-
ally, it probably will need tools and

Fringe-Top Surrey

A generation and more ago the
fringe-top surrey was an important
link in the chain that helped hold
the regions of great, sprawling
Nation together. It was not an or
binary, everyday utilitarian affair.
In village, small towns and on the
farm the sturdy plebeian democrat
was the wagon of everyday use
when the family travelled for rou-
tine purposes, such as going to the
general store on Saturday evening
for the weeks trading. If a man
or his son had to make a quick trip
on a necessary errand, the single
seated buggy or blackboard was used.
The fringe-top' surrey was in an
other category altogether. It was
saved for going to church in good
weather, for the band concerts in
the town square on Wednesday eve
nings and for family reunions.
When it was not in use, 1t sat in its
special place in the carriage shed,
and every time a special occasion
arrived, it was boys job to see that
it was carefully busted and the seats
brushed. The surrey was a mark of
distinction. It had an air to It; 1t
savored of aristocratic elegance. It
was something a man used as an
evidence of solid, substantial posi-
ton among his peers.
Naturally, it was the fringe around
the top of the cover that was its
distinguishing mark. The top was
sturdy matter, green leather
covered roof supported by four slen-
der steel rods. But the eight-inch
tassels blowing in the wind gave 1t
that certain touch that set 1t aside
from daily transportation. The
wheels were large and had slender
tires and spokes. The springs held
the two-seated body well above the
axles. There were slender metal
arm rails each side of the seats.
There are those who claim that the
Victorian Age lacked color and
aplomb. But the fringe-top was
ample refutation of the assertion.
With a deep blue vanished body,
red hub caps, red shafts and with
decoration lines of red and yellow on
the spokes and around the body, 1t
was festive and artistic equipage.
Gone now are the fringe top surreys,
but many men and women can re-
member when they were Just about
the last word In elegance.

Surgical Prepayment Plan

Approval by the District Medical
Society of plan for prepayment
of certain surgical and obstetrical
bills represents far advance in the
developing movement to ease the
financial burdens of persons in need
of medical attention and hospitali-
zation. Time was when group
health" and group disqualification"
proposals were eyed askance by
those who feared a trend toward
"socialized medicine" in govern
mental circles. The American Med
ical Association and the District
Medical Society took leading part
in resisting what they termed so
cialistic" schemes sponsored in Fed
eral or State quarters. Both organi-
cations, however, long ago foresaw
the need for some system of pre-
paying or budgeting medical and
hospital expenses on group basis
and both for some years have been
endeavoring to agree upon plans
that they considered reasonable and
practicable.
The plan finally approved by the
District society is similar to that
recently proposed by the A. M. A.
as an alternative to the admins
tration's request for compulsory
health insurance legislation. While
many details remain to be worked
out, the local program would pro-
vide a system of voluntary "insur-
ance" to enable persons of limited
income to meet surgeons and OBJ
stetricians' bills through moderate
monthly payments into a general
fund. It is proposed that the plan
should be operated in cooperation
with Group disqualification, Inc,
which covers hospital expenses alone.
The arrangement would take care
of surgical expenses incurred In the
course of disqualification only. Sur
gical or medical services rendered in
the doctors Office or in the patients
home would not be covered at pres
ent. A choice of doctors co-operat-
ing in the program would be per-
mitted and it is said that large
number of members of the society
have agreed to participate. This
would obviate objections which have
been raised in the past to group
medicine plans which restrict pa
tients to staff physicians. The local
program resembles in general scope
the medical prepayment systems
Instituted in a number of States
with marked success. There is no
reason why the plan should not

Booty From Munchuriu

In an informal preliminary report,
experts attached to the Pauley rep
arations mission strongly indicate
that Russia's removal of capital
goods from Manchuria has had a
crippling effect on production. Ma
chine tools and electrical equipment
appear to have been the principal
items hauled away before the Red
Army finally withdrew, and these
are essential to plant operation.
Based on a survey of about 80 per
cent of former japanese industry in
Manchuria, the report points out
that although the Russians seldom
completely stripped any plant they
helped themselves to key machinery,
with the result that production has
been either stopped or drastically re-
duced. In the Mukden area, for ex-
ample, perhaps so per cent of the
coal mines are flooded. Pumps are
available to cope with the situation,
but there is not enough power to
run them. The necessary electrical
equipment has been removed to the
Soviet Union.
All this has very important bear
ing on plans for the industrial re-
habilitation of China. It also con-
stitutes one of those factors that
have contributed to the deterioration
of relations between Russia and the
United States. As long ago as last
February 9, the State Department
made clear in a note to Moscow that
it considered the Soviet removal
policy to be most inappropriate"
and unilateral. Moreover, together
with the Chinese government, it re-
jected the idea that Manchurian in
duStrial equipment could be regarded
as legitimate war booty to be
grabbed up at will without inter-
Allied consultation.
It is clear from the report by the
Pauley mission experts, however,
that our note, assuming that its
timely dispatch could have been
helpful, was sent too late to

form of physical and financial wor-
