LET'S TALK BASKETBALL

Although It's still football sea
son. 1t won't hurt to look ahead
and talk little basketball for a
change. IN this neck Of the woods.
the biggest sports event Of the
season Is basketball affair-the
National All-oriental Tournament,
to be held in Seattle during the
Christmas holidays. This tourna-
ment, which last year In its initial
debut surprised even It's sponsor
the Nvc and the oathay Post
with the way it caught on" with
the public. Is even now in the
planning stage for the second an
nual revival. AS everyone should
know by this time. q big sports

last year, however. it is planned to
have the field equally divided be-
tween Chinese and Nisei teams, IN
stead OF having three Chinese and

Chinese unable to field four teams.

course, be back to defend their
championship laurels, but leaving
the Chinese entries out Of the dis
cussion for the time being, let's
see how the Nisei half of the field
stacks up. First and foremost will
be the Hawaii All-Stars, who were

championship round and give the
Saints terrific rassle before sue

JUST THE idea of dictatorship
In America shocks US. Yet a learn
ed European professor from the
University Of Zurich. Dr.. Emil
Drummer, told a group of scholars
In Amsterdam that "all the West
ern nations" are headed directly to-
ward totalitarianism- This may have
come as a surprise to American ci-
items. Who are part Of this great
Republic and cherish Its democratic
institutions.
That was what the professor
said. He was thinking Of our de-
mocratic ways. yet that Is what he
said. The professor knows that
Western nations have their legal
constitutions. He knows Of their
long standing convictions about
freedoms. Nevertheless. he said
these countries "are on the way to-
ward totalitarianism, not because
they like dictatorship. but becalse
wherever q social evil Is TO be cur
ed they appeal to the state for
help" II the people keep calling
on the state for help. the inter-
ference Of government In the daily
lives of people viii certainly IN
crease This way Of solving prob
lens through the state Is danger
GUS, as DR.. Brunfler warned.
Power Over the People
THINKING perhaps of the dam
gers today confronting Great Bril-
tain, he spoke out: "Once the eco
nomy is nationa1ized, q tctalitarian
state is there whether one wants II
or not" Our British friends may
not be able to admit that their ma
ton has gone totalitarian, but ma
ny earmarks Of the dictator state
are there. The government holds
power over the people that cruel
kings strove for and could not
gain. Yet these powers were hand
ed over to the government In legal,
parliamentary fashion. The gov
eminent can tell individuals In
England where they must work and
what they may do for q living. Des-
pots Of the Dark Ages held powers
no more despotic.
The Congressman for our district,
Representative Mills, came home
recently. Not up for election this
year, our Congressman did not
have to buckle down TO barrage
Of questions and give political an
swers. Instead of promises he gave
our people some straight-in-the-
face, factual talks.
To Save Ourselves
HE TOLD US that If we want
lower taxes, we,ll just have to stop
asking for more and more govern
ment. You can't keep On begging

Institution, 722 jackson place NV.
This 1948 Institute on Federal

citation and the District Institute

said income, estate and gift taxes
will be analyzed In conformity with
the 1912 Revenue Act. Corporate

lette won the primary handsomely
and came through at election time.
After the primary fight, President
Roosevelt took steps to end the rift
inviting Senator Gillette to spe:
cial Sunday luncheon at the White
House. And, again, in June, 1914
when Senator Gillette was running
for reelection, Mr.. Roosevelt wrote
the now-famous Dear Guy" note
to the Iowan, seeking to smooth out
that years differences.
Senator Gillette had declared
sharp opposition to fourth tern
for President Roosevelt, saying II
was a threat to democracy" This
rift, too, was patched up, but Sen.
ator Gillette lost his seat to Mr.
Hickenlooper.
Shortly thereafter, he was named
chairman of the Surplus Property
Board, but after duty there resigned
to become paid president Of the
American League for q Free Pal
estine. He said he felt that in that
way he could make a more vital
contribution to world peace and Sc
curity than through a Federal Gov
ernment job.
Though not quite a Roosevelt New
Dealer in the fullest sense, he has
been praised as a liberal, though
at times "fed up" on official errors
of the former Democratic regimes.

New Faces in Conqress
Gillette of Iowa, Survivor of Purge
Attempt by Roosevelt, Coming Back

Former Senator Guy M. Gillette
Of Iowa, who survived a purge at
tempt by the Roosevelt Administra-
ton in 1888, is coming back to re-
claim a seat he lost 4 years ago.
Defeated in 1914 by Republican
Senator Hickenlooper, the Iowa
Democrat last week won out over
Republican Senator Wilson.
Now SO, and with. an interim rec
ord of added public service. the in
dependent but pleasant-mannered
lawyer from Cherokee, Iowa, Is one
Of IS new faces to be seen when the
Senate meets January 3.
Senator Gillette began his career
as a prosecuting attorney of Cher
okee County, 1907-1909; then was a
member of the Iowa State Senate
from 1912 to 1916. He was a ser
geant in the Spanish h-American
War and a captain of infantry in
the first World War.
After period as a farmer, he
went back into politics and was
elected and reelected to the House
for the Seventy-third and Seventy
fourth Congresses, serving from
1888 to 1887, and then captured a
Senate seat.
In his first short term in the Sen
ate, he voted against number oi
Roosevelt measures and was marked
for the purge when he bucked the
President on the Supreme Court
packing bill. Competing for the
nomination for his Senate seat was
Representative Otha D. Wearin
Iowa Democrat in the House. whe
had a more perfect record of sup
porting Roosevelt.
In that test, Mr.. Wearin had the
open support of President Roose.

unusually silent. 50 he drove and
thought. The whole affair was
ridiculous. Leonie Wood had been
quite within her rights to resent
his grandmother's arrogance. The
thing that made him angry was
that Leonie Wood apparently was
quite friendly toward his grand
mother and definitely chilly to-
ward himself.
"Geoffrey." said his grandmoth-
er abruptly, in her softest. pretti-
est voice. Il haven't wanted to
ask you. But you will be able to
stay until my birthday, won't
you?"

Il thought your birthday was in

He stared at her. Il could have
sworn -"
II ought to know when my own
birthday is" she interrupted him,
with some asperity. Especially
when it's my eighty-second."
Eyes, I can stay" he told her.
Il said I'd be back early next
month. But / would have taken
my oath -" He frowned. Some
body's birthday was the third of
March.
He had said that he would be
back in Valparaiso early the next
month, and suddenly. he wondered
why. Il have a job here" he had
told himself. The job was really
the only bond that held him in
Chile. His two years there had
been interesting, but twenty-five
was too young to begin gathering
even Chilean moss.
His grandmother said. "A

He watched Amelia walk up the
