Armed Forces Falling Prestige
Seen Disturbing White House

ments Of the civilians are boiling up

over them when the war was on
President Truman, who as a Ma
tional Guardsman in the last war
got taste of the military that is
still sour in his mouth, is sympa-
thetic to Joe Glutz. But he fears
that the rising anvil chorus will
drown out the services just case.
There are no signs that the criti-
cisms are leveling off. The portents
are the other way.
Occupation Backed.
The President is backing the
Army's explanations that occupation
is Government policy, that they
must balance their forces with
American commitments and that the
Regular Army isn't yet large enough
to take over.
The Navy's publicity in the trial OF
Capt. McVay for the loss of the
Indianapolis is public relations
mans nightmare. The trial was
elaborately staged with unusual fam
fare. Somebody was clearly out for
blood. The current version is that
Admiral King, then Chief of Naval
Operations, who has just been sue
ceeded by Admiral Nimitz, was the
thirsty fellow. Capt. McVay re-
portedly threatened that heads
would roll because of the sloWness
of his rescue. Admiral King inter-
preted this as an attack upon his
operations and decided to get there
"fust with the mostest men," 1t is
asserted that friends of Capt. McVay
brought in the japanese witness
purposely to arouse public senti-
ment and force an upset should the
case go against the captain. All the
betting is that Capt. McVay will in
the end be abSOlVed.

One of the problems that has been
disturbing the White House is how to
arrest the declining prestige Of the
Army and Navy, which having glori-
ously won the greatest war in history,
now appear to be able to do nothing
right.
President Truman has gone to bat
for universal military training. He
is fighting for unification of national
defense, which the Army and Air
Forces strongly want. He has as
sured all the services that when
these matters, plus atomic bomb
control, are in hand he will support
generous appropriations for carrying
out American commitments and a
strong defense.
The President realizes that those
appropriations will need to be very
large. In fact, as already projected,
they are so large that Gen. Eisen-
hover and Admiral Nimitz admit
they get cold feet thinking about
it. These two experienced warriors
are internationalists. They see only
ruin for everybody in an arma-
ments race as figures are laid before
them on current costs of war.
Bickering Not Only Trouble.
But with all these battles to be
fought in the court of public opinion,
which alone can move Congress, the
Army and Navy are not only bicker-
ing among themselves, the Army
faces what in a less democratic
system would be mutiny and the
Navy has staged a court-martial
in which an American captain
was convicted following testimony
against him by Japanese officer
brought here for the purpose.

situations, the accumulated resent

TENT-F.OLDING TIME

We doubt if there are many Key
Westers who think that this is the first
time that drive has been made against
the number of saloons in the city.
More than hundred years ago,
Key West grand jury made a report in
which it complained about the extensive
gambling and the large number of .grog
shops in the city That report is master
piece in that regard, and it precipitated
arguments, whose outcome was only to
cause "bad blood" among groups of resi-
dents aligned against each other, the vets.
on one side and the drys on the other Il
Since then, there have been many
other outbursts against local saloons, in
variably with a similar result; side lining
up against side, each side abusing the
other
Since the turn of the century, vets
and drys have clashed on three different
occasions, and, at one time, caused a good
many fist fights. But the saloons continued
to operate until economic conditions
stepped in to reduce the number.
You may be as sure as that oft-repeat-
de two and two make four, that when
business conditions return to normal there
will be a decided decrease in the number
of Key West bar rooms. Barroom keepers
are the first to- take advantage Of an up
trend IN business in anYotoWn, and, they
are the first to step out of the picture. AS
a rule, they do not Wait, as men in other
undertakings do, till they begin to use
red ink They are able to sense the Hing
off of business before men in other call
ings, and, as conducting bar rooms entails
a multiplicity of expenses, the proprietors,
'fold up their tents and quietly steal
away"
Key West has far too many bars, and
should have none in the business and resi-
dental sections of Duval street. In the two
busiest blocks on Duval, the bars bring to
mind, except for electric lights and the
size of the buildings, gold-mining western
towns in the latter half of the Nineteenth
Century. "a

WARSHIPS TO SPARE

The suggestion is made by Senator
Scott w. Lucas, of Illinois, that the Navy
keep for possible future use the ninety
six warships it plans to expose to the
atomic bomb.
The Senator wants to know why we
should have such display of destruction
if the use of atomic energy in war is to be
outlawed.
We think it is very portant for the
United States to dis over tkhegatestruc
effects of the atoiasi q ,osl warships
assthey are So attef VI oad ss In fleet
formation obviously, if the zNavy can
learn the range of the destruotsveness of
the atomic bomb, it will be able to plan.
some type of deiense in the event of future
warfare.
AS to the other comment of Senator
Lucas, that the Navy should keep its
ninety-six warships for future use, it is
only necessary to recall that the nation
has a fleet so large that it is impossible to
keep every ship in operation. In fact, after
providing for current needs and laying
up a tremendous reserve of warships for
future use, there remains a surplus.

PEOPLE, SHIPS AND FISH

In addition to the larger aspects,
military and scientific, of the United
States atomic bomb experiments in mid
Pacific, will be matters involving person
atty and sentimentality.
In the first place, what is to be the
fate of the peacetime natives of the Mar
shall Islands, where the man-made earth
quake is to be loosed? The 161 living on
Bikini atoll, whose spacious lagoon is to
accommodate the guinea pig fleet, will be
evacuated permanently. Inhabitants OF
other islands, as far as 200 miles away,
are to be removed temporarily. Fish and
wild life of the whole area face utter de-
struction, but they are described by the
United States Fish and Wild Life Service
as only " of local importance" -, t......,,
Are animals to be placed on the tar
get vessels to determine the bomb sreffect
on "crews?" No decision has been made.

proposed using goats as goats" to test
their new weapons, loud cutlery arose
from humane societies. CongressmenT4ar are

no doubt, will be in direct ratio to the dis
lance of their seats from the scene of
action. rst ~ asf-f
Nobody cares about how many Jap or
German warships are destroyed, but there
will be regret that some of Uncle Sans
famous old men-of-war also are earmark-
ed for possible disintegration. But their
final sacrifice, if it is really to be, will be
in the service of their country. The Navy
needs them now to determine the effect
of-fhe atomic bomb on future ship design
and on the whole concept of warfare.
Better to carry on to a glorious end
in the tradition of the Navy than to rot and
rust for years in the mudbanks where
proud ships die.

BIG BILLS

The Treasury Department reports a
drop in the number of $500, 1000, So, 900

balances between banks, have been useful

abling them to handle large sums without
leaving trace.
The number of $4,000 bills has
dropped from $500 in June to around
2.200,~ the number of $4,000 from 1000 to
1, 400, 81 900 bills declined from 994,O 900
to 801,O0O and $500 bills from LAP, 900

culatiOn, which ought to be enough to
finance considerable black marketing and
