TOKYO ROSE:
Sitting Pretty

Whatever had been her effect in
bringing death to American CTS
in the South Pacific, there was to
be no death penalty for Mrs. Iva
D'Aquino-known to the world as
Tokyo Rose.
SHE was on trial in San Francis
co on a charge of treason because
the government of the United States
contends she broadcasted for the
Japanese in the hope to democrat
ize and discourage allied military
men and to impair the ability of
the United States to wage war
against its enemies"
In a manner of speaking, Tokyo
Rose was sitting pretty. The gov
eminent prosecutors said they
would not ask for the death pen
atty, so all the woman faced va
Imprisonment and fine or possibly
both.
A newspaper story Of her ar
raignment said she wore a tail
ored gray mixed plaid suit with
gilded buttons. Her freshly sham
pooed hair was topped with a gold
beret. She sat demurely at her at
torney's elbow as if she were his
secretary"
ALL throughout the wal there
were mixed claims about her in
fuence on CT morale. Many service
men declared they "got a kick out
of her Enthusiastically for
laughs" while others blamed her
for widespread decentralization
among the Allied personnel.
In view of the Judy Coplon con-
viction on a charge of treason in
connection with the Russian gov
eminent, things might go hard
with Tokyo Rose in the length-of-
term department; but with the
specter of death removed as pun
ishment for a crime for which death
might well have been expected, the
blow couldn't be too evere.

INTELLECT:
Women's Best?

If two Indiana university profess
ors are to be believed, then the
male of the species must face an
unpleasant fact-namely, that girls
Cor women) can reason better than
boys Cor mem.
THE PROFESSIONAL gentleme n
claimed, and cited figures for
proof, that the female is the SUI
perior of the male in the reasoning
department, and this despite ten
million jokes, books, philosophical
discourses and general experience
to the contrary.
The professors say unequivocally
that given a set of circumstances,
the lassies can come up with more
logical answer than boys can do.
These gentlemen are DR.. William
H. Fox and Prof. Nicholas A.
Fattu of the research division of
Indiana university's school of edu-
cation.
They made the tests in two high
schools, one in a city of IL, 1000 in
north central Indiana, and the other
in a consolidated rural school near
Indianapolis.
TO USE the professors own
words in the report:
Scores on the Interpretation of
date test, seeking to establish their
relationship to measures of achieve
ment, personality and interest,
found no differentiation but
there was a clear cut advantage
for girls in both schools in ability
to reason, to see relationships, to
make comparisons and to suspend
judgment until pertinent facts are
collected"
To which many a male will coun-
ter: Too bad they seem to lose those
faculties when they grow up.

DEFENSE:
Dictator Feared

In nearly all discussions concern
ing unification of the nations
armed services, n thing stood out
many congressman feared the
possibility of a military dictator"
if trainers of a unification bill
weren't careful.
THIS feeling was put into words
by Georgia's Representative Vim
son who proposed several amend
ments to the pending bill, declaring
that he wanted to make sure no
military dictator ever arises in the
United States. Vinson, a Democrat,
is chairman of the house armed
services committee.
The amendments he proposed
would take the armed forces out
from beyond the recently enacted
government reorganization w,
and put them beyond a shuffling by
President Truman; put a civilian
chairman over the joint chiefs of
staff, a body which includes the
highest officers of the army, navy
and air force, and fix the member
ship of the national security council
by law, requiring that other mem
bers be subject to approval by the
senate.
THESE AMENDMENTS wer
proposed to a unification bill which
already has passed the senate. The
measure is one which would in
crease the direct authority of the
secretary of defense over the
armed forces.
Louis Johnson, who holds that
post, has told the house committee
he needs that authority to make the
1947 %uniication act work. He
pledged to save owe a billion dol
lars a year in operation of the mill
tary services if the bill we're passed,
and a civilian manager put in
charge.

RECESSION:
Ho, Ho, Ho!

With unemployment figures stand
ing at the highest peak in II years,
and many nationwide organizations
and national leaders casting about
for a bulWark against economic
hazards, congressional leaders were
laughing at the idea the nation
might be edging into a depression.
THEY had just conferred with
President Truman and upon emery
ing from the conference ridiculed
the notion that all might not be as
rosy as possible with the nations
economic picture.
If the lawmakers we're out on a
limb, they were way out, for House
Speaker Rayburn and the senate
Democratic leader, Scott Lucas,
minced no words in expressing
their optimism.
WITH So million people en-
ployed in industry and 80 million
farmers with money to pay for
whatever they need, I'll be--if
l see now you can call 1t a recess
sion," Rayburn declared.
Said Lucas: IF it is, it's the most
prosperous one we've yer expert
enced."
MEANWHILE, it was said Presi-
dent Truman was preparing a spe-
cial economic message for delivery
to congress. 1t was expected to
carry recommendations for deal
ing with declining prices and the
unemployment situation.
Out of all this came repetition Of
the additional-taxes proposal. Asked
about that, Rayburn said it had
yet to be determined. He did not
make it clear whether he meant
President Truman is reconsidering
his plea for four billion dollars in
additional taxes a year, or whether
the matter is still up in the air in
congress.
Laurel outlook., 1949-07-13

Another Try

The administration hadn't giver
up, despite a humilating setback
in the senate by Taft-Hartley law
supporters. It was reported thai
President Truman's congressional
aides were planning another try al
repeating the measure, but had
reached no decision.
THIS CAME to light after House
Speaker Sam Rayburn concluded
a conference with the President.
The decision on a new repeater eff
fort was to await further confer
ences with labor committee men,
bers in both houses. :
While the persistence Of the ad-
ministration might be comendable,
the wisdom in any further effort
toward a Taft-Hartley repeater was
doubtful. A majority of top leaders
had conceded there was little hope
of getting the bill changed at this
session of congress, and all, in
Guiding administration a S,
were willing to make the question
an issue in the 1850 congressional
elections.
THE RESULT Of the vote on
changing the Taft-Hartley labor
law was confusing to the average
observer of the political scene. II
labor had played as important a
part as it was conceded in the cleo
ton of President Truman-and with
congressional elections up next
year-how could so many senators
have found the courage to fly into
the face of what might seem e T
tain defeat?
On the other hand, if labor's role
In politics is as negligible as others
claim, why was the administration
pressing so hard for the Taft-Hart-
ley repeater. One thing appeared
certain: There were many congress
men sufficiently unimpressed with
labor's political importance that
they didn't mind going contrary to
labor's wishes on the Taft-Hartley
issue.
