An infinitesimal number of
Germans still remain loyal to the
Nazis. principally IS a protest
against the harsh actions taken
by the Allies against some of those
Germans who were forced to join
the Nazi Party in order to keep
their jobs and their businesses.
But while it Is unquestionably
true that the Germans are not
turning back to naziism. there is
no question that nationalism is
increasing in Germany by leaps
and bounds.

It is inconceivable that some
47,000,0 900 Germans who are still
treated as inferior beings by some
Of their conquerors would react
differently, for they still have
more than q spark Of pride in

mans express their pride In their

Arlington Democrats
Call on Independents
To Keep Promises

The Democratic Party OF Ar
lington. having lost control Of
the County Board In Tuesdays
election, will hold the Independ-
ent faction in power strictly
accountable" for failure to per.
form campaign promises, Chair
man c. Harrison Mann Of thu
County Democratic Committee
said today.
While promising that thu
Democrats will not employ lob.
structionist tactics" Mr.. Mann
in effect, served notice that hi
party will be watching the per.
Torrance Of the predominant
faction between now and next
November when one of their in.
dependents will either seek re.
election or retire.
"A majority Of the voters have
elected Robert Cox" Mr.. Manr
said. For the next year tn,
Democratic Party In connection
with the County Board will be
the minority party. This places
the responsibility Of local gov
eminent in the hands Of the can
didates of the Better Government
League Party"
Mr.. Cox ran as an Independent
and was the nominee Of 4 Town
Meeting. He defeated Chairman
Baxil DeLashmutt. q Democrat,
and his election will give the In
dependents a simple majority on
the local governing body when
he takes ONCE January /.
The term of Daniel A. Dugan,
the first Of the Independents to
gain a seat on the County Board
three years ago. will expire next
year. His seat will figure in the
election next November. M. Free
land Chew, is recognized Demo-
crat who. nevertheless. was elect
ed as an Independent two years
ago when the Democrats and
Republicans declined to nomi-
nate candidates. His term and
that of Mrs. Florence Cannon,
Independent. do not expire until
December 81, 1851. The term
Of the nth remaining board
member. Alfred e. Frisbie, q
Democrat. does not expire until
the end Of 1852.
THE Democratic Party" Mr..
Mann said, "as the minority
party on the County Board, will
tell the people when 1t thinks the
majority Is wrong and keep the
people informed Is to the facts.
In other words. the Democratic
Party on the County Board will
play the role of the minority
party in our two-party system.
This makes for healthy govern
ment."

the sick or infirm, and was accompanied
by evidence that they had been inhumanely
treated. No veriacation was possible,
because Moscow refused to permit inspec-
ton Of war prisoner camps by the Inter-
national Red Cross, as the Western powers
had willingly done. And Moscow refuses
to give precise data as to deaths in
captivity, numbers still retained, or other
pertinent information. Western estimates
indicate that several hundred thousand
German prisoners are still In Russian
hands more than four years after the
wars end
In this connection, RuSsia's parallel
failure to live up TO its obligations

be noted. Only recently, General Douglas
Macarthur alluded bitterly TO that evasion.
Moscows record in this respect Is thus a
thoroughly black one.

The Burden Is On Congress

With commemorate 01Spatcn, PreSloent
Truman has shifted back to Congress the
responsibility for deciding whether there
is to be any reorganization of the Govern
ment during the present session OF Con-
gress. II the reorganization program fails
this year or later, 1t will not be because Of
any delay on the part of the President in
submitting the first part OF his program
to Congress.
Congress now has before it an initial
group of seven reorganization plans, based
largely on the recommendations OF the
Hoover Commission on Organization Of
the Executive Branch Of the Government.
The proposals provide for a new Depart
ment of Welfare, strengthening Of the
Labor and Post ONCE Departments, trans
fer of the National Security Council and
the National Security Resources Board to
the Executive ONCE of the President, ad-
ministrative changes in the Civil Service
Commission and the Maritime Commits
sion and transfer of the Public Roads Ad-
ministration to the Department of Com
1nerce.
Both houses of Congress will want to
examine these proposals carefully. 1t is
the reorganization law was so phraSed as
to guarantee against hasty congressional
action, either for or against the Presidents
recommendations. The law gives Congress
sixty days to make up its mind about them.
If, after sixty days, neither house is able
to muster constitutional majority against
any of the plans (that is, majority Of 21S
Representatives or 40 Senators), the pro-
posals will become law. The sixty day
period must pass during continuous ses-
sion of Congress. 1t cannot continue over
into another session.
Obviously, it will be impossible to enact
any reorganization plan at the current
session unless Congress should decide to
remain. on duty beyond July 81, the date
professionally fixed by law for regular adj
journment. Senator Mccarthy, Republi-
can, of Wisconsin, member Of the Com
anittee on Expenditures In the Executive
Departments, thinks reorganization Is i'm
portant enough to justify extension Of the
session So do lot of other supporters Of
governmental reform. They fear that the
chances of reorganization will diminish
the longer the Hoover Commissions reports
are allowed to gather dust. Congressional
friends of reorganization should give
serious thought to this aspect of the prob
lem. The fate of the whole reorganization
movement may hinge on what Congress
decides to do about scheduling considera-
ton of the first part of the Presidents
program.
