Navy Annex, the Airport developments
and network Of new highways brought
thousands Of new residents and hundreds
OF new business enterprises to the county.
When the 1910 census was taken,
Arlington boasted of 57,040 residents.
Today, according to tentative results OF
a special survey by the Census Bureau,
the total stands at 1874 persons. That
is more than many OF the Nations we'll
known cities claim. The figures show
clearly why Arlington is suffering from
oyercrowded schools, traffic congested
roads and overburdened public services
Of many kinds. Most cities Of comparable
size spend far more for education, streets
sanitation and police and fire protection
than Washington's neighbor across the
Potomac River. The census survey con-
firms the contentious of many of Airing
tons forward-l looking citizens that the
time long since has arrived for Arlington
to discard remaining evidences Of county
methods of doing business in favor Of
up-to-date city methods. And Arlington
must face up to the unpleasant fact that
it costs more money to run q city than
it does rural county. Increased munich
pal services are bound to mean increased
cost to the benef1ciaries

ARLINGTON Is Growinq Up

The tentative census figures just made
public for Arlington County justify the
claims of its representatives in the General
Assembly that the community has at
tanned full-fiedged cityhood. It was on
that basis that Arlington's Senator and
delegates argued successfully at Richmond
for legislation which will enable the once
rural county to function as a municipality,
albeit without incorporation as such.
The transformation of Arlington began
in earnest during and Immediately subse-
quent to World War I. Residential sub
divisions began to invade the county's
farms and woods. Old roads were rebuilt
and new ones were laid in all directions.
Business sections of Clarendon, Rosslyn
and Cherrydale expanded The growth
continued steadily, If slowly, during the
years between the two World Wars. It
was the second war which caused Airing
ton to mushroom at a fantastic rate,
however. Cramped for space in Washing
ton. the Government spilled over into
Arlington with Office buildings, dormi-
tories, roads and other facilities needed

No Alternative Now

The history Of selectiye service in World
War II is 80 recent that some OF its lessons
should be remembered now.
The most important of these is to get
the law on the books. It means decision
as against indecision. It means getting
started instead of standing still. 1t means
to prepare for the worst without giving
up hope for the best. But getting such a
law on the books is q slow process.
We still had "phony war" in the spring
Of 1910, eight months after the Germans
had marched into Poland. The President
had asked for more money for defense,
especially for aircraft. And when the
"phony war" ended with the German in
vasion Of the Low Countries We had not
even reached the stage Of asking that the
National Guard bs called into Federal
servics.
1t was on June 10 that former Senator
Burke Of Nebraska and Representative
Wadsworth Of New York introduced, with
out Endorsement from the President, a
selective service bill. Opponents fought it
with pleas to try voluntary enlistments
frst. In the Senate an amendment for
60-day trial with volunteers lost by only
two votes. In the House such an amend
ment actually was passed by seven votes
The Presidents Endorsement Of the bill
did not come until he was accepting the
Democratic nomination for a third term
In July. The bill was finally passed in
September, Senators Taft and Vandenberg
being among those who voted against it.
That bill limited to one year the service
AR ha
Of the country. And as the first year Of
selective service came to close, with the
Germans massing along the Channel,
thrusting deeper into Russia and increas-
Ing the intensity Of the blitz, our Army Of
about 1,500, 900 men faced disintegration.
Attempts to amend the draft law brought
on another fight. We could not bring our
selves to believe that danger really threat
ened. The amendments which gave the
draft law teeth, retaining the men in the
service and making them available wher-
ever they were needed, won by fifteen
votes in the Senate, by only one vote In
the House. BY such narrow margins four
months before Japan struck at Pearl Har-.
bor-did we avoid catastrophe in the form
Of disbanding quickly trained Army of
one-year selectees in the face Of imminent
war.
We do not know whether history will
repeat itself. What we should know is
that we cannot gamble the Nations future
on the possibility that history will not.
The draft law expired only year ago next
week. It was permitted to expire In the
hope that recruiting would do the job.
Raeruifinc hos failed Wa have M a1terpo
tive now-unless it is the alternative of
inaction-to putting the draft law back on
the books and getting men into uniform
again. Delay will work to the advantage
only of those who would wish us harm.

Western Europe CouIesces

The hve-nation pact signed at Brussels
is noteworthy not merely in itself, but
also rs portent of more to come. This
dual aspect was succinctly put by British
Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevin, who ex-
claimed as he affixed his signature to the
historic document: This Is unique! And
1t is only the beginning!"
The immediate lend" which Mr.. Bevin
had in mind is, at the very least, an effec-
tive union of all the nations of Europe
still in control of their own destinies and
devoted to the ideals of democratic free
dom. The ultimate objective doubtless is
an even larger cooperation embracing
the entire Europeon continent, at least to
the historic boundaries of Russia. For not
until the present cleft down the middle OF
Europe is closed can the continent solve its
economic, political and theological prob
lens and move securely toward brighter
future.
Despite the lowering clouds which beset
Its present prospects, the limited union
attained by the signatories is very great
achievement. In less than a fortnight of
negotiation. these five nations accom-
plished amicably task which previously
had appeared a Utopian dream to all save
few idealists ahead of their times. Two
great powers, Britain and France, COM
posed differences of the most complex
character. Furthermore, both accepted as
equal partners in the common enterprise
two lesser nations, Belgium and the Meth
erlands, together with the tiny principality
OF Luxembourg-all with mutual respect
for each others national sovereignty and
dignity. Lastly, the scope of the pact ex-
tends far beyond Europes borders, since
each Of the participants except Luxem-
bourg possesses extensive colonial terri
tories in various parts of the globe.
This pact is not a temporary affair
designed to cope with specific emergency.
It is to last for half a century, embraces
economic, military and social-cultural CO.
operation. and is implemented by a CON
sultative council" which continuously shall
exercise functions designed to insure
prompt and effective collective action in
all those fields and under all eircum-
stances.

Trieste Gamble

Moscow's reaction to the proposal to re-
turn Trieste to Italy is interesting lin that
the Soviet position falls short of being one
of unqualified opposition.
The Russians accuse the United States,
Britain and France Of acting behind their
backs and say that the proposal was put
forward as political maneuver designed
to swing Italian voters away from the
Communists and left-wing Socialists In
next months election. But the Russians
retain freedom of action for themselves;
they have not favored the restoration of
Trieste to Italy and neither have they
opposed it.
One can reasonably infer from this that
the Trieste proposal was a shrewd and
telling move in the international chess
game that is now fully under way. Premier
Alcide de Gasperi is making the most of
this instrument which has been put in his
hands and the popular italian reaction
shows that the Trieste bid has seriously
undercut the position of the Italian Com
munists and their political allies.
1t should be recognized, however, that
there is a considerable element of risk in
the step which has been taken. For the
Communists, by agreeing to the return of
Trieste or by offering to agree in event the
Italian voters choose government salts
factory to them, may be able to reap for
themselves the political advantage which
we had hoped to give to the De Gasperi
government. But here, once again, the
Western powers were faced with a situa-
ton in which some risk had to be taken,
and there is no reason to suppose that the
element of risk in the course chosen Is
greater than would have been the case
with anv other move
Evening star., 1948-03-22

the dream OF forward-looking minds for
has come only under pressure Of stern
necessity and literally at the eleventh
hour, when all parties had become con-
vinced that collective union was the only
alternative to individual destruction. Even
with the moral and material support OF the
United States, the new organization may
soon be tested by the hostile force which
seeks to undo everything thus far accom-
plished. But the speed and ease with
which imperious desire has been trans
lated into concrete achievement once more
illustrates the old saying: Where there's
q will, there's way"
