to know what it was.
Then, as these enchanted days glide by, the
miracle of vision begins to swing - from past
to future. Like beam of light it flashes past
the year that is going, the days that are run
ming out, with their trials and satisfactions.
their Illustrations and triumphs Soon these
will be gone; they will be only score that has
been erased, an account that has gone to the
files.
AND all at once we find ourselves looking
upon the future and seeing it very near. Now
it is not merely reason that tells us there is
future. 1t is vision that suddenly reveals it to
us, bright and vivid with opportunity and
challenge.
There is no one of US, however battered by
the old year, who cannot look forward to the
new one with hope, picturing what it may
bring or more (for we are, thank God, free

coming year, all that it should be.

But The Holidays have another and more
special quality. They are the Season of Visions.
They begin with the miracle of seeing back

uplift of looking forward to the future.
Until now, we have lived our year in the
present, rarely thinking back beyond yesterday,
rarely farther ahead than tomorrow.
But as each Christmas approaches. we find

The Super-CycIotron

The 100000 Super-cyclotron to be
built at the University of California will
dwarf anything of its kind in existence
today. Financed by our Atomic Energy
Commission, it will be capable of gener-
ating energies up to 10000 900 900 electron
volts-a figure indicating that it will be
about twenty times more powerful than
the most powerful atom smaSher now in
operation. It's technical description makes
formidable and difficult reading for
layman, but its significance can be stated
simply enough. What it means is that the
United States is equipping itself with
mighty new instrument to probe deeper
and deeper into the secret heart of nature.
This probing has a practical and all
important purpose. 1t is aimed at ex-
panding our fundamental knowledge of
nuclear fission. With the help of CYCLIC
irons we have succeeded in Harvesting
the atom, but the atom itself still is
largely a mystery We do not really know
a great deal about it. and we need the
super cyclotron to open new avenues of
discovery. We need it to smash at the
atomic nucleus until it tells us more and
more. We are only on the outer edges
OF a vast new frontier, and we must move
forward into it for our own we'll being and
security. To stop where we are would be
merely to invite others to get ahead of
us in a field where it is not safe to lag
behind.
Looked at in this light, the super
cyclotron may seem to be a grim machine
designed to show us how to make bigger
A-bombs and kindred weapons. Actually,
however, its true function is to help us
add to the sum total of human knowledge
knowledge of sort that can benefit
the whole of mankind. The atom is not
evil in itself, nor is the study of it evil
1t exists, and 1t must be studied and it
can work tremendous good If not misused
and II properly controlled. There would
be no reason to fear it if the world would
unite in Harvesting it for peace. 1t is a

Communism in BruziI

The Bogota eruption has sent tremors
throughout Latin America. It was a
startling revelation of the volcanic forces
which underlie the political and social
surface of many if not most of the nations
to the southwark. And one of the conse-
quences has been sort of stock taking in
each country of the potentials of unrest
and revolution, together with elaboration
of measures to forestall similar upheavals
Nowhere Is this truer than in Brazil
This vast, yet ill-compacted nation, larger
than our own United States and sprawling
across nearly half of the South American
continent, has been fertile field for
Communist agitation So grave and fire.
quent have been the disorders provoked by
Red propagandists that last January the
Brazilian Communist Party was legally
outlawed and all avowed Communists were
expelled from official posts and seats in
the national or provincial legislatures.
However this has not stopped Com
munist underground activity, and official
investigations have discovered q con-
spiracy for widespread sabotage of govern
ment establishments and public utilities
The result has been a wave of arrests and
an urgent request from President Dutra to
Congress asking for new legislation to
protect the nation against destructive ele-
ments." Such law, which probably will
soon be passed by Congress- would enable
the government to purge its services of
suspected Communists who may have in
filtrated into official posts. The entire
country is today in state of alert with
more Communists being swept up by the
police dragnet and prominent Communist
leaders fleeing across the frontiers. Nota-
BILE among them is the Communist chief,
Carlos Luis Prestes. In hiding for months,
Prestes is known to have escaped to neigh
boring Uruguay, where he is now confer

Latin American nations.

Deep in the Red

The District appropriation bill reported
to the House yesterday calls for spending
nearly $102, 900 in the next fiscal year.
But in spite of a substantial increase
dipping heavily into the balance OF In
vested savings accumulated during the war
years, the proposed appropriations exceed
available revenue by over $5,00OO0O.
That was the chief topic of discussion
in the Appropriations Committee before
reporting the bill. 1t is unusual to appro-
pirate more local funds than are available
for expenditure. The Appropriations Com
mittee has always avoided local deficits rs
a matter OF pay as-you-go policy.
The avoidance of this deficit now, of
course, depends on new taxation. ReSpon-
sibility for this new taxation lies not with
the Appropriations Committee, which has
just decreed the nature and amount of
the spending, but with the House District
Committee. AS yet the House District
Committee has agreed on nothing
Six or seven weeks of this session remain
before Congress packs up and its members
take of for the conventions and the cam
paigns. That is ordinarily sufficient time
for enactment of the necessary tax legis-
lation. But because of other pressing bust
ness the time is short Unless the House
and Senate legislative committees work
fast the local taxpayer will suffer from a
continuation of the hit-or- miss type of
local tax legislation that has injured him
before.
For example, if there is failure to agree
on the sales tax as new form of taxation
he yoillipr SOFT will To
matically be made up by another large
hike in the real estate tax. Real estate
taxes are too high now and are paid by
only fraction of the population for whose
benefit the cost of local government has
been set so high. Another increase in a
tax which is already burdensome would
be highly inequtable as we'll as dangerous.
We should not be faced in the District
with this annual scuffle between the COM
mittees in charge of spending and the
committees in charge of tax legislation.
We should have the benefit Of joint con-
sderation of taxing and spending. We
should have Joint Committee on the
District which decides on the fairest and
most productive method OF taxation, the
amount that can be spent from current
revenue the amount that should be spread
over the years by wise borrowing and the
amount that the resulting decisions make
available for spending. We should not
be penalized, as voteless taxpayers, by
divided responsibility for local fiscal
matters between separate committees that
do not work together, with one committee
complaining that the other spends too
much and receiving the retort that it
does not tax enough. That is no way to
govern a city whose annual costs now
exceed hundred million dollars
AS annoying and as disagreeable as 1T
is, the sales tax is the only sensible method
remaining of meeting the cost OF this
pending District bill. 1t is the only tax
that promises to raise the necessary reve-
nue. with any equitable sharing of the
burden by those who reap the benefits.
1t should be started through Congress now
without further delay.

Educating the Russians


Another world war would bring unprece-
denied hardship to the American people:
Greater imitation, scarcity Of every kind, q
much greater housing shortage, impoverish-
ment, depletion of our natural resources,

A Good Friend Of the Schools

Few Washingtonians who have served on
the Board of Education were so we'll pre-
pared for their duties as Dr. Robert A.
Maurer, whose resignation from the board
last week has severed connection with
than forty years ago.
He was fine and useful member of
the board because he has always been so
fine teacher. He made teaching his life
work-a work that one hopes will continue
for more fruitful years. His resignation
from the board was prompted by his
desire to give all OF his time to his post
at Georgetown Law School, where he has
helped to At generations of budding law
yers for legal careers.
But he leaves a certain void on the
board. He was member who knew the
public school SyStem>in inside out. He knew
the teachers point of view, for he had been
a teacher. He knew the school administra-
ton, for he had himself been one of its
top administrators. He was always quick
to defend the teachers, quick to give their
side in any dispute involving competence
and loyalty. And as their champion, he
spoke not merely as a teacher who knows
the ropes but as good citizen, earnestly
devoted to public education and to the
complicated machinery which gives it
effect.
1t would not be a good thing If all the
members of the board were teachers, or
past members Of the public school ad-
miniStration. We need the leavening in
fluence on the board Of nonprofessionals
and that is the influence which correctly
should predominant. But in selecting
members Of the board, the judges would
do we'll to bear in mind the value to the
board and to the citizens OF the sort
Of professional representation that DR..
Maurer was able to bring.
1t is always matter of regret when
any citizen board loses the services OF
one who has brought such distinction as
DR.. Maurer brought, to its proceedings.
But his thousands of friends in Washing
ton will derive satisfaction from the fact
that DR.. Maurer leaves the board at
time of life when he still has useful years
ahead of him and when his counsel as a
friend and builder of the public schools
will still be available.

Home Rule Analysis

To the EDITOR Of The Star:
The Star is to be commended for It's con-
structive editorials on the proposed plan for
Home Rule in the District and particularly
for last Wednesdays comprehensive analysis
Of the factors which make the dual voting
provisions of the Home Rule Bill an important
safeguard for good local government in the
future.
The several issues involved in the Home Rule
proposal are of both local and national interest.
Most Of them are capable Of being separated
and analysed individually, as you did with dual
voting. 1t is to be hoped, therefore, that your
paper will take up these other issues indi-
vidually in future editorials, for the benefit
of the many persons-both in the Congress
and among the citizens of the District-who
will have the responsibility for voting on the
establishment of Home Rule first by Act OF
Congress, then by popular referendum held by
the citizenry
Such a series of editorials would be a real
public service. STURGIS WARNER.
To the Editor of The Star:
Three cheers to The Star for the fairly
expressed position on the dual voting for
Washington in its editorial of April 49,
As a native Washingtonian domicied here
I have welcomed the great civic and cultural
contributions made to our city by the large
group of our residents from other States
Washington self-government would lose i'm
measurably in effectiveness If we are to be
denied the interest and intelligent participa-
ton Of these citizens with prior experience in
local government of their communities with
out their vote home rule we'll might prove
unavoidable to quote The Star
