Mr.. Ickes and the BRIDGE

Mr.. Ickes, whose letter appears
elsewhere on this page today. lodges
the issues in the dispute over
whether one six-lane, two-way
bridge or two four-lane, one-way
bridges should replace the decrepit
Highway Bridge.
Regardless of his own involvement
with irrelevancies, one of these
issues is whether two bridges and
their approaches would mar appear
ance of the Jefferson Memorial any
more than one bridge and its ap-
proaches. The Commission of Fine
Arts says they would not. Mr.. Ickes
says they would. The traffic Of eight
bridge lanes suggests to Mr.. Ickes the
ducks that move across the back
ground OF two-bit shooting gallery.
But the ducks will be there regard
less, whether they move back and
forth across the river on one bridge
of six lanes or two bridges of four
lanes each. The highway and traf-
f1c engineers contend convincingly
that trees and shrubbery can shield
from the Jefferson Memorial the
approaches to two bridges as eff
fectively as the approaches to one
bridge.
Mr.. Ickes mentions another issue
when he says fatty that Washington
is not prepared to handle eight lanes
OF bridge traffic, by inference con-
tending that Washington can han
die six lanes. This is a question Of
fact, however, and the trafic en-

La Guurdiu 'Retires'

In coming today to the end of his
somewhat controversial career as
Mayor of New York. Fiorello La
Guardia is leaving public life only
in the sense of no longer being the
paid public servant of the Nations
greatest city.
He will be unable hereafter. in his
big black hat, to pop up unexpect-
eddy, at all hours of the day and
night, to give his official and per-
sonal attention to some fire or riot
or other untoward event in the me-
tropolis. Nor will he be in position
henceforth to speak with chief
magistrates authority on every sub
ject under the sun, ranging from
"tinhorn" gamblers and interna-
tional affairs to comic strips and
unruly little boys who overturn ash
cans. During his twelve years in
off1ce-and an army OF New Workers
will VOW that his has been one of the
most constructive regimes in the
city's history-there has been moth
ing too big for him to comment or
act upon, though by his own admis-
sion his record shows occasional
mistakes that were "beauts." The
place will, therefore, be a bit differ
ent without him, and he himself will
doubtless yearn sometimes to be
back in harness. Yet he win have
plenty of things to do to keep him.
self busy and escape being bored. He
will have regular weekly news

Sunday from now on he will be max

meeting Of the Assembly in the near
future will set in motion the whole fab
ric OF this organization, whose primary
purpose Is to preserve world peace in
accordance with justice and interna-
tlonal law. When the atomic bomb was
dropped on Japan, those who had been
skeptical Of the United Nations Organi-
cation Immediately started a chant to
the effect that UNO was already in the
discard. Instead OF being q correct es-
innate OF the situation, it was the
reverse. The UNO has become. in real
1ty, the hope Of the world. It can be
made to work, because it must be made
to work. More and more, the peoples
and governments OF the United Nations
are coming to that conclusion.
1t is not going to be an easy job. IN
doubleday there will be many differences
OF opinion expressed in the meeting of
the assembly. 1t was so In San Fran
cisco. The lesson was learned there,
however, that agreements can be
reached.
The assembly's duty will be to set up
the Security Council which is to be
executive agency of the UNO. Five
members Of the Council are already
chosen-the permanent members, the
United States. Britain, Russia, France
and China. The six other members will
be elected by the Assembly. Under pres
ent plans, the Security Council is to 60
into session without delay in London.
49,
Eventually the UNO will move to q
permanent home in the United States
II the recommendations Of the Prepara-
tory Commission are carried out-as
they will be, beyond doubt. This decision
was reached without self-seeking on the
part Of this country and its Government.
The location Of the UNO headquarters
here will remove 1t from the atmosphere
OF jealousy and suspicion which has op-
Grated too long in the Old World. It
also will contribute to making the New
World more conscious OF the part it
must play in world affairs If there Is
to be Deace and develonment

What Followed Pearl Horbor
By Berfram Benedict
From the Detroit Nev..

1t Is what followed that we forget
ana 1t is this that puts us In a better
nght: How great race rallied from it's
siumber, how it gathered resolution and
singleness of purpose and strength to
stand on and finally to vanquish a foe
VINO In the beginning seemed all but
inyincible. We could do today with that
aroused spirit of early AZ. It would be
a blessed thing ii people like ourselves
could recapture such a mood at will.
FOR, standing as we do in the face of
the miracle of atomic power, with its
lncalculable potentialities for good but
also Tor unprecedented horror, who can
say we are not on the verge of some
thing as fateful as Pearl Harbor? Have
we prepared ourselves in spirit against
1t? Are We doing, are we willing to do
all that has to be done to avert the
ultimate catastrophe which is latent in
this new-found force? Are our Congress
and all who act in our behalf alive to
the position and peril of ourselves and
indeed Of all mankind? Or are we dozinr
again In the warmth of a sunny after
noon, as we did on another, on this same
day in another year? It Is for all of MS
to answer!

Breaking With the Past
By Maj. Georse FieIdinf Eliot

tariffs to one Of breaking down every
artificial barrier to the free fiow of in
ternational trade.
The trouble is that so years is too
short a time for such fundamental
changes to take hold on human minds.
II could be far better had these
changes come about more gradually:
Say In 100 years, stage by stage, instead
OF In 50-in two generations instead
Of one.
For the men who are now in positions
OF authority -whether in politics, in the
armed forces, in commerce and indus
try, or otherwise-are men who were
educated in the halcyon days Of the
l900s for the most part, men who grew
up with the lessons Of the good old
times firmly fixed in their minds, men
whose earliest acquaintance with Amer
lean history taught them that our fore
fathers came to this continent to escape
wars and injusttces of the Old World,
and a good thing, too.
~ 4
1t Is hard to teach an old dog new
tricks. Many Of the older generation
simply will not acknowledge in their
hearts what their minds tell them has
come to pass. They will resist instinc-
lively even when they no longer resist
Intellectually. For this reason the hope
Of America lies In her youth-and to
q very great extent, because OF the
transcendent power Of this Nation, the
hope Of the world lies In Americas
youth.
The year on which we are entering
will be q year Of such responsibility for
the United Stateseas has been laid on
no other nation in modern history. It
win be year In which Americans must
meet the challenges of peace, OF recon-
struction, Of the duties OF leadership.
with the same courage and the same
firmness Of purpose with which they met
the challenges Of war. It will be year
in which, also, Americans must get the
challenge within themselves, the chal-
lenge of making clean break with 4
dead past, Of facing the grim truth that
the world Is indeed with us and will con-
tinue to be with us to the end Of time.
