aged mother as dependents, the in
dictment said.
A resident of Gaithersburg, he said
last night he had paid "every cent
that the Treasury alleges I owe, plus
6 per cent up to December 81, 1896"
Mr., Casey resigned the presiden-
tial posi- in 1914 to serve in the Navy
and saw combat service before re-
turning to civilian life last year.
He gained national prominence in
1888 by radio speeches made in be-
half of former Representative David
j. Lewis, Democrat, of Maryland
supported by President Roosevelt
in the unsuccessful attempt to
purge" Senator Tydings, Democrat,
in the primary election that year.
Owned Maryland Farms.
He named his home New Deal
Farms" Mr.. Casey owned seven
dairy and grain farms in Maryland
and also engaged in the engineering
and house construction business.
The text of Casey's statement:
II understand that the United
States district attorney in Balti-
more is initiating criminal action
against me on a charge of income
tax fraud. Before I entered the
Navy, I requested the Treasury De-
partment to go over my tax returns.
A memo to this effect is on record
in the Bureau of Internal Revenue.
From Pearl Harbor on, I had been
forced to be absent from Washing
ton a large part of the time on
assignments given me by the late
President Roosevelt, with the result
that I was able to give almost no
time to my own personal affairs.
1--WE all make mistakes, and. un-
questionably I have made mine.
But they were mistakes not of in
tent or fraud, but due to the fact
that my affairs were in the hands
of others. Every cent that the
Treasury alleges that I owe, plus 6
per cent up to December 81, 1916,
has been paid to the United States
Government.
Delay Called Strange.
"It seems strange that after wait
ing two years, and after reported
differences of opinion between re-
sponsible officials in the Bureau of
Internal Revenue and the Justice
Department., my case only now is
being placed in the hands of the
district attorney.
my only hope is that because of
my friendship for Franklin Roose-
velt and some of the enemies I may
have made in the Maryland sena-
torial primary of 1888, my case
will not become a political foot
ball, but will be tried on its merits"
Rear Admiral John Ginrich, un-
der whom Mr.. Casey served in
the Pacific, praised Mr.. Casey's
war record in a statement last
night, asserting that "if they're
going to throw rocks at him, I
want to speak up"
Admiral Ginrich, now director of
Naval Reserve, commanded the
cruiser Pittsburgh and Mr.. Casey
was his training officer.
"Comdr. Casey was with
me when the Pittsburgh towed the
battered carrier Franklin out from
under the shadow of the Jap MAIN
land" the admiral said. "He fought
through the Battle of Two Jima,
Okinawa. and finally ne performed
heroically through the Okinawa
typhoon after the Pittsburgh had
been broken in two.
I'm rescuing the carrier Frank
lin, Comdr. Casey played a large
part in saving the lives of IS men
rescued from the waters"

INVITATION TO ACT

Recently published results of a Gallup Poll taken across the Nation the question of approval of President Trumans proposed fact-finding ccong-off period procedure in management-labor disputes show
 strong endorsement of the projected legislation r every major cccupatonal group
 Business professional and white collar classes approved by 30 percent. Farmers 83 percent in favor while 73 percent of manual workers held with the Presidents plan Large majorities in all groups thought the proposal would help in reducing strikes Especially noteworthy is the vote of labor union mem bers-7O percent approval 14 percent undecided and only IS percent disapproval
 Here is another invitation to the Congress to move ahead resolutely with strke-adjustment legislation IL is true that union leaders hotly denounced the Presidents proposal when it was made But in this matter they apparently speak for only small minority of their following. The rank and file s of course, eager higher wages and better working conditions but would like to obtain thees benefits without ing to strikes.
 What Congress needs most in dealing with this problem shake itself free of organized pressure from both employers and unions and to legisate in the general interest That comprehends, is clearly indicated by results of the poll the interests of organ ized as well as unorganized workers and consumers
 That the general interest is at stake is signfed by analysis of the pattern of strikes that already taken place. in progress or threatened With some exceptions, they in vital industries. if not in what we custcmarily call public utilities
 Steel production is not public utility in the narrow sense But on it depends the manufacture of a whole host of things. including equipment for other gseeatial industries. Telegraph and telephone munication and the manufacture of equipment for those utilities obviously industries vested with unmistakable public interest The provision of meat

is different matter yet it comes very close to the others in its relation to the orderly operation of national life.
 In word the industries already paralyzed or threatened with paralysis predominantly those in which the interest of the whole people greater than that of the employers workers directly concerned
 This is not at all exaggeration. One can add up equities of the policy directors and the workers of the telephone companies and form notion of what they have at stake. Then one estimate the eco- homie cost of paralysis in the Nations communications and make a rough approximation of the bill which the American people would have to pay. There is no comparison The public interest is nmeasuably greater than the private interests in jeopardy.
 The clear implication of these stoppages is that we must seek by law to provide alternative to economic attriton as method of reconciling the differences of employers and workers in essential industries
 There is here no contention that President Tru- mans proposal offers the only likely way outthough few others of any worth have been put forward. Con- gressonal opinion ranges from ultra conservative to the Moscow party line. But the men whose decisions shape the pattern of legislation in the middle of the road They have been reluctant to take any anti labor action have, indeed, been unwilling to thrust the power of government into the strike question as a wartime measure.
 But-their hand is being forced They cannot continue to ignore the of strikes which threatens to manace the economy cf country already seriously crippled by the difficulties of reconversion Orderly means of adjusting labor management disputes must be found.

Continuity in Tokyo
Washington Post

tWaSnngtOn POSt
 In a report covering developments during Septem- ber and October General MacArthur made one point which is of the greatest importance to the successful occupation of Japan. The characterization of that country he said is hndered, among other things, by the fact that potential democratic leaders fearful of coming to the front They fearful because they do not know how long United States troops will be here to protect them against the dreaded secret police"
 How familiar is this suspicionl The discontinuity of our foreign policy is historic and is of the great lnponderabes holding up world confidence, making for hesitation such has overcome, for example, the Latin Americans toward the joint intervention pro- posal of Uruguay.
 There can DC no doubt that General MacArthur's efforts the direction of the characterization of Japan have been well-considered effective and continuous One after another of the feuda and militarisc props of the old regime has been sawed away So far as crders from without plus legislation from within do the job the path has been cleared to consid- erable extent for true democratic development in Japan But whether the reforms ordered by General Macarthur and being executed by the Japanese authorities prove permanent or ephemeral depends, to very large extent upon us.
 It is true permanent occupation of Japan is contemplated Nor would such an occupation be wise Sooner or later the Japanese people must be allowed to stand on their own feet. But whether when that time comes, they will be able to do so. with Japan remaining democratic and revertng to feudalism and militarism, will depend whether remain in Japan long enough democracy really take root The only foreign policies that have any real meaning ard substance those that have the force of tinuity behind them. An ephemeral occupation of Japan would help her. would certainly not help us and it would be world tragedy.

MEAT AND STEEL CIRCLES

The meat and steel strike sare two illustrations of how the price circle spreads like waves from a pebble ill a pool.
 When the price of steel goes up, as it will by $4 a ton, every user of steel-from automobiles to 10- penny nails-can come in and get a price increase. This sends ID the cost of living for everyone.
 Unquestiona5ly the 79o,oo0 s.eel workers deserve an increase. But some midway line must be drawn where the burden IS not passed on to the public. Otherwise. with the cost of living llp, all unions will be coming back for another raise.
 Meat-racEiag economies are even more Illustrative. Everyone eats meat. The meat-workers deserve a wage increase. It is low-paid industry But, if wages go too high, there is no way to escape increas- ing the price of meat. This means trouble for every housewife and a never ending circle of new wage demands.
 All this illustrates the fact that the Government must exercise the power of arbitei in these disputes. It must set the middle ground. The old War Labor Board never should have been abolished; but. since it was abolished, President Truman still has the power without an act of Congress to create new Board.
 And if certain labor unions will not cooperate. then the country will support President Truman, who has been the consistent friend of labor, in using whatever steps are necessary to force cooperation.
