 Such coalition of liberals is no mere Chinese pipe dream A nucleus already is present in the Peoples league, organization of intellectuaS (many with American and European educatons) which has joined Chiang Kai-shek's Nationalist regime in accepting the new constitution but vocal and critical minority. There are many potential recruits to the from both Communist and Nationalist camps among ndivid uals who are neither flaming revolutionares hide bound reactonaries.

American Sea Power; Force For Peace
(Seattle Post-Intelligencer)

(Seattle POSt-mteluSencer)
 In a recent debate in the House of Commons Labor member of parliament, w. G. Cove, observed that Brit sh power has been supplanted by the American naval establishment dominant force in the world and that Britain is thus precluded from solving its e pire problems by the traditional of power politics.
 We have lost the command of the and America has the biggest fleet the world has seen, said Mr. Cove. The greatest factor in holding the British Empire together power, but this has slipped from and have not the power to hold the empire together on the basis of power politics..
 This raised the question by conservative member if the implication was intended that American power endangered BritainS position in India, to which MT Cove replied:
 "I am not saying anything of the kind. am just point ing out the stark naked fact that this has resulted in depletion of power as far Britain is concerned
 Mr. Cove is unquestionably right insofar the rea- tive naval establishments of Britain and America emerged from the war; although there has also been serious depletion of American power since the war; fact attesed by Admiral Nimtz when he said recently that the American navy has been reduced by demobil ization to one-sixth of its wartime striking power
 Nevertheless American power is still the strong est in the worldand if the American government and people have the slightest comprehension of their vital interest they will keep it that way.
 For as MT. Cove acknowledged the worlds biggest navy does not offer danger long an American instrument and the worlds biggest and best air force would not endanger any nation as long IS Tn Amerl can hands-and combination of the two would be the greatest force for world peace ever created.
 The American nation demonstrated in the last war that it capable of producing the biggest navy and the biggest air force in the world and did exactly that thus winning the and restoring peace at least an opportunity for the attainment of peace
 But it still remains for the American nation to dem onstrae it's comprehension of the relation between nvincble navy and air force and permanent peace h. deed the demobzaton has proceeded in exactly op- pose directon-as it did disastrously after the First World War
 It is not enough to have been able to build naval and air forces sufficient to win past We should be concerned about being able to win any future in which may become involved, and especially about keeping out of future wars if possible

 Communists are trying frantic ally to find some comfort in the state department change. The Lon don Daily Worker headlined "Tru- man Sacks ByrneS" and said that in the new Republican setup the fact is that Jimmy is regarded as an old Roosevelt man." That, Of course, is what many Communists would like to think. But deep down in their hearts, they must AnOW that Truman did NOT fire Byrnes and that whether Republl- cans regarded Byrnes as "an old Roosevelt man" had nothing to do with the change. One thing the Communists can be certain if is that Gen. Marshall will adhere to the policy of patience and firm ness" toward Soviet Russia which the American people have indors- ed with unprecedented unanimity.
 President Truman could hardly have picked a better man than Marshall to step into Byrnes' shoes. As army chief of staff dur , ing the war, Marshall sat in on the most important conferences at which both war and postwar poli- cies of the Allies were discussed. He has a personal knowledge of the various Allied agreements. He has the confidence of the American public as well as of Congressional leade4s. And he probably under stands the Russians as well as any OOLy in this country.

INDIANS:
Would Be Freed

After 100 years Of federal supervi-
sion, the American Indian may be
freed if congress acts favorably IN q
proposal of Senator LANCER (Rep.. N.
d. to abolish the office Of Indian
affairs in the interest Of economy.
Five other members Of the SEN
ate's civil service committee backed
Langer's measure. Senator Chavez
(Dem., New Mex.) declared that the
Indian sought no special favors from
the U. S. but only wanted education
al opportunities, sanitation, water
and land of his own. Senator Ecton
(Rep., Mont backed Chavez state
ment, asserting that progressive In
dams chaffed under the need to OBJ
tain permission for productive ex-
penditures.
Ecton also agreed with LANCER
that the government would have to
provide for aged Indians. probably
through the social security act. In
the meantime, Ecton urged that
younger Indians be educated to as
sumo full citizenship on reaching 81
and equipped to make their own
Way.

Declaring that the U. S. could not
afford to permit the American flag
to fly over a gigantic Buchenwald.
former President Herbert Hoover
undertook another survey Of food
needs in the U. S. and British occu-
patton zones in Germany.
In addition to providing for es-
sential German relief, Hoover's jun
ket was aimed at making the reich
as disappearing in food needs as
possible. Improvement in the food
situation would lead to a reduction
in present U. S. relief costs of 300
million dollars annually. The former
president had the assistance Of two
food experts on his tour, being &C.
companied by DR.. Dennis Fitzger-
aid. chairman of the international
emergency food council, and former
Ambassador Hugh Gibson. who aid
ed him in World War I relief work.
At the same time that Hoover
headed westward, Hallam Tuck. his
associate on the famine study tour
Of last spring. headed eastward to
survey food conditions in Japan. Ko-
e and the Ryukyus. Tuck also
will be concerned with the long-as
well as short-range requirements Of
those Asiatic countries in an effort
to boost their food output.

PORTAL:
Tax Relief

The burden Of portal to portal
back pay will largely be shouldered
by Uncle Sam when, and If. union
members are awarded their SUBJ
stantial claims against industry as
a result of Secretary of the Treas
ury Snyder's announcement that
such OUTLAWS are deductible against
taxes levied in the years affected.
Because portal payments to work.
ers will be liable to taxation. how
ever, the U. S. stands to recover
some of the refunds in personal in
come taxes. In many instances, the
portal claims run into hundreds OF
dollars per worker. leaving them
open to a heavy bite under the high
wartime rates.
Under Snyder's ruling that indus
try could claim credits on taxes
paid in the years for which portal
demands were granted. companies
would be able to take advantage OF
high rates and profits levles
of the war years. At the same time.
they would be entitled to a 6 per
cent interest on the money collect
ed from them to v their tax
liabilities.
