apologies for not having the courage to to grips with this problem by saying that the time is too short The time is not too short if the Administration has the courage of it's convictions Right at the end of the harvest there is plenty of food in the bins of the world for immediate needs. The immediate problem is of financing purchases Britain is the outstanding example The British recently cashed 80 millions of their gold to get dollars The present pinch in the poe ketbook of the hungry nations The food pinch will come later from midwinter on through spring and the start of the next harvest.
 The American people know their duty and have al- ways been willing to it. But if the of the world depends restriction of the American diet they have right to expect that the method used will first have reasonable chance of success, and ond that the burden be equally and fairly distributed among all.
 It may be bad politics for President Truman to call
 special session. to ask for raoning and price ceilings and wage control and to tell Congress that emergency grants be made to friends abroadin short to confess that he has consistently misudged national and world developments since the day after Japan Surren dered may be easier to try to pass the buck to the people. But surely when cabinet officers speak as the Secreory of Commerce and the Undersecretary of Agriculture have done politics ought not to come first

tors and 100 Representatives who supported the Taft-Hartley act is another question.
 Its answer will depend, we be- lieve, on what the country thinks of this new labor law along in the summer and fall of next year. And that, in turn, probably will depend on how the act operates, not on the present outcry from union leaders who call it a slave law" ard at the same time assert that ;t can't prevent them from ignoring, by passing or defying it's provisions.

Too Little, Too Late

(St. Paul. Minn, Pioneer Press)
 UNDERSECRETAY OF AGRICULTURE Norris E. Dodd said recently that the only way to avert famine abroad and undermining of friendly governments is for the United States to adopt voluntary raoning of food ostretch out this years short crop Secretary of Commerce Hartman said much the thing, with special reference to the feeding of wheat to livestock He wants voluntary meat fast to prevent this diversion of wheat.
 If voluntary raoning of food in America is literal ly the only hope of the world then the predcaent of the world is very grave.
 Voluntary rationng is lame excuse for the real ce The amount of food that be conserved by that method is doubtful That sufficient saving be ef fected by reliance individual action is unrealistc the point of the fantastic.
 The Administration does not want to ask for restora ton of rationng because that would be bad politics It also does not want to do because to get rationng special session of Congress would be needed and Pres dent Truman has said that special session is not need ed
 Difficult not until the Administration asks for real ratoning, it is on weak ground. Secretary Hartman

Too Big A Job

(Rocky Mountain News)
 EMIL REEVE, president of the CIO Textile Workers Union, has just made quite speech to the New York State CIO Council.
 Among other things, he opposed formation of third political party at this time, holding that it would only insure election of reactionary" Republican president And he advised labor to stop talking about defeating all members of Congress who voted for the Taft-Hartley act That he said, too big job, though something
 might be done by concentrating 1948 drive to retire 12 Senators and 100 Representatives.
 Since Mr. Reve national vice president of the CIO and director of its Political Action Committee, his words may carry some weight. Anyway, it's certainly true that other union leaders biting off much than they chew when they threaten to drive every Taft-Hartey supporter out of Congress.
 That would mean beating more than three-fourths of the present members including well half the Dem ocrats in addition to than 90 per cent of the Re- publicans.
 The acid-test vote for the Tat-Hartey bill, the overriding of President Trumans veto 331 to 83 in the House, 68 to 25 in the Senate.

A Case For The Court
(The Denver POSt)


 THE SOVIET CONTENTION that continued Russian Japanese peace treaty direct violation of the Sino Soviet pact of 1945 and cannot help but regard that treaty nothing but scrap of paper.
 The Chinese government sgned this treaty after preS1 sure was applied by the United States-for the U. s.. ta conference.-the Chinese were informed later The treaty called for return of Daren to China at the tion of hostlties although to be free port and the Sovets were to have important rights.
 Now the Russians choose to state that hostites with Japan are over, will they be until treaty is signed This contention does not go along with their other actions in regard to the SnoSoViet treaty They only too eager to accept joint administration of the South Manchurian railway, and they Oyfully hailed Chinese recognition of Outer Mongolia sovereign state-a sovereign state now under Soviet domination As with these clauses with the clause concerning Daren and Port Arthur If these portions of the treaty applicable until the peace treaty is signed, ne ther should the remainder of the treaty be held valid For all practical purposes the Sino-Sovet treaty has been torn The Chinese recognizing this have closed Daren to all foreign shipping, and have refused to a low ships which call at Daren to visit Chinese ports This too, is violation of the treaty but the Chinese had little other They cannot enforce their der closing Daren to foreign shipping but they can en- force the second order, and have done
 The Sino-Sovet treaty should be taken before the world court and adudicated the basis of its prov sions Until this is done, solution can be reached Un til the Sovets take it there abide by the treaty look upon their occupation of Daren and Port Ar thur and their joint administration of Manchurian rail- ways only infringement of the sovereign rights and territory of China.

THE CAMEL" METHOD

Once the camel gets his head into a tent, he soon has his entire body inside. This old saw lends itself to some modern applica- tions, but it fits none better than the current English situation. So- cialism is indeed like the camel; it does not stop at part-of-the-way measures. To put it into a good old Southern expression, it's sim ply whole hawg or nuthin."
 A striking feature of the British Crisis Bill" which recently be- came law in that country, was clause giving government the au- thority to take possession of any industry which it might pro- nounce inefficiently managed. Ac- tually, what this means is that no industry in England is safe from gover n ment confiscation. The threat will always be present, for the excuse of "inefficiency" could be trumped up at any time.
 Invading The Tent
 For five years I have contended, in this column and in public add resSes, that no country could oper- ate successfully with a "half-and- half economy. If it's partly gov ernment managed and partly pri- vate enterprise, pretty soon Social istic schemes find excuse to invade and take over. The present Eng fish government is proving by con- tention. It's the old camel" pro- cess.
 England is country that long has been known for devotion to the freedom of individuals. Yet, within two years after she started' her program nationalizing major industries, it was found necessary to pass a law giving the govern ment power to siege any industry it may choose on the excuse of ''inefficiency." There's a lot of leeway there. An industry might be inefficiently managed from the viewpoint of production, or even from the viewpoint of non-cooper- ation with the government.
 Camel Becomes Boss
 Another striking feature of the crisis bill, as reported by Associ- ated Press, was that it gave the government power to tell both men and women where to work and what to do. This includes wo- men from l8 to 40 years of age who have no children under l6, and men from l8 to 50 years of age. This loss of freedom of indi- viduals has been unthought-of heretofore in English speaking countries.
 What does this measure mean? It means that no privately-owned industry is at liberty to hire men under the age of 50, or women un- der the age of 40, except through the government employment agen- cy. It means that any woman un- der 40, unless she is the mother of small children, may be told where 70 go and what to do. All men be- tween the ages of l8 and 50 may be told where to work and what
