probably originated in the whimsical
mind of Secretary Ickes. 1t had
about as much to do with Mr.,
Cohen's important activities as did a
similar set-up provided for Mr.
Cohen's ubiquitous political part
ner, Thomas C. Corcoran, by the
not so whimsical head of the Re-
construction Finance Corp, Jesse
Jones. Both Offices took in the whole
town as their field of operations.
Mr.. Corcoran has been justly ac-
cused of planting men in the gov
ernment. With equal justice Mr.
Cohen could be accused Of planting
ideas. The two had working un-
derstanding that, whereas ideas were
no good without men to carry them
out, men we're no good without ideas
to carry out. MI, Cohen had plenty
of IDEAS. all stemming from one
basic idea-the responsibility of the
Federal Government to, and for the
welfare Of all the people of the
United States.
Little Use for Trickery.
Shrewd in the ways of the law
and a master of the language of
legislation though he was, this Ii
brary lawyer had little use for legal
istic trickery. He aimed at basic
and during accomplishment
rather than quick results. The
statutes he wrote - for others to
sponsor-stood up, even against the
harsh judgment of the Supreme
Court when it was still the nine old
men. He could claim, for that rea-
son, some of the credit for the sud-
den reform within the high court
that caused the Presidents dubious
court reform bill to fail. He can
claim now, if he cares to, some of the
credit for the present courts think
ing. Many of the members were
exposed to his philosophy during
their preparatory service in the
Government. No longer do they ask.
as they used to do, What does Ben
think?" but they haven't forgotten
the sort of questions he always
raised when confronted with fun
damental problem.
The cause of Ben Cohen's resig-
nation is simple. He is tired. He
has been worn out by three years of
wrestling with the Russian mind He
has no plan for the present except
to rest.
If d prolonged period of rest
should germinate in his mind a So
luton for the toughest problem he
or anybody else has yet tackled
namely, the problem of how East
and West can meet on common
ground - he probably would be
happy to return to public service.

OAR Gets Report
On Pacific Hospital
Garden Program

Small packages of flower and
vegetable seeds, sent to Army and
Marine Corps hospitals in the
Pacific area, are helping to speed
the recovery of convalescent SER
vicemen. according to reports re-
ceived by the National Society,
Daughters of the American Revolt
tion.
Donated by the OAR, the seeds
are distributed through cooperation
of the War Department, to hospitals
from Manila to Japan.
The patients are allowed to select
the kind of seeds they want and
to plant gardens adjoining hospital
buildings Hospital authorities re-
port keen rivalry among the men
in growing the flowers and vege-
tables, while medical officers say
that the gardens aid patients in
their recovery to health.
Started as wartime project, the
program has been continued by
the OAR in answer to numerous
requests from hospitals overseas.
Mrs. Albert D. Gilmore of Yonkers,
N. Y, who is chairman of the pro-
ject, has just notified national
headquarters that it is again an
outstanding success.
Mrs. Roscoe C. O'Byrne, president
general, promised that the war SER
vice gardens would be continued
by the OAR as long as requests are
made. THE work of collecting seeds
which will be used next spring in
the hospital gardens already has
begun" she declared.
Mrs. Gilmore reported that 6,734
packages of seeds were sent out
this year. This brings the grand
total since the project was origin
ated in 1943, to more than $4,000.
Typical of the reports made to
The OAR is this quotation from a
letter written by a medical officer
in the Pacific area: Il can tell
you without reservation that the
men who will receive these seeds
and who will derive the benefit
will be most appreciative of the
fact that they have not been for
gotten, even though hostilities have
ceased. In behalf of these men

Armed Forces Merger Bill Called
Major Contribution to Defense

single air force. 1t has been a ques-
ton of preserving planes as the
long-range artillery with which a
fleet can strike. Naval aviation can
fit in well with atomic warfare, for
the Navy has lost none of its i'm
portance for national defense be-
cause of revolutionary scientific de-
velopments.
This provision in the measure was
a constructive contribution in a
negative sort of way, in that it pre-
vented commission of a bad mistake
The bill makes great positive con-
tribution to American defense in
providing a basis in law for the
Central Intelligence Agency, which
has struggled along as the STEP
child of War, Navy and State De-
partments.'
Can Earn Its Place
Intelligence is the antenna with
which we receive the faint signals
of brewing trouble. Proper intelli-
gence can tell us whether the heavy
black smoke which hangs over inter.
national relations two years after
the war is only the persisting clouds
from World War II or whether be-
meath the smoke there is spreading
fire. 1t is necessary to have more
knowledge than one gains from the
diplomatic notes, the United Nations
debates and radio propaganda, al
though all of these have a place in
the picture when they are properly
evaluated.
Given adequate appropriations and
wise administration the Central In
telligence Agency can earn a place
for itself in the forefront of Ameri-
can national defense. This de-
pends on proper conception of its
mission, avoidance of the "eager
beaver" complex which would surely
bring it into conflict with the senior
defense agencies, and sidetracking
of some of the ill-conceived intelli-
gence projects with which both
Army and Navy were burdened in
World War II.
Taken as a whole, the armed
services unif1cation bill represents
a substantial strengthening of Amer
ican defense at time when it has
had to labor under restricted budg
cts in the face of growing perils
abroad. This is one job by Con-
gress which few can criticize.
