InfIotionury Taxes?

OF all the half baked reasoning which
has come from the present administra-
ton, the theory that increased taxation
will keep down imitation is the most
aSinine. .
How does it help to keep down de-
mand to take money away from one
individual who is saving it for his old
age and to keep himself off of the backs
of the taxpayers and throw it away like
chaff among hundreds of overpaid chair
warmers who Immediately rush out to
spend it and run up the demand?
Salaries in the new agencies for be-
ginners closely approximate the salaries
of those of long experience and highly
technical qualifications in the old-line
agencies Millions are being spent in
endeavoring to make silk purses out OF
Sows' ears by educating for the higher
arts people who would insure better
future for themselves if they were learn
ing to lay bricks.
How can we hope for anything less
than ruinous imitation as long as the
producing element of the population is
nicked to the extreme in taxes to enable
hundreds who should be working in pro-
ductive lines to ease along in work of
no essential Importance while boosting
the demand for goods all along the line?
It Just doesn't make sense and Congress
should tell the President that he must
stop waste in the executive departments
or there will be cuts in taxes rather
than increases.

No EntonqIinq Alliances

AS General Macarthur leaves the witness
stand it is perfectly clear that he is not serving
as front man for any one. Whether one agrees
with him or diSagrees, the General has called
the shots as he saw them.
When he conferred privately with Senator
Taft and Herbert Hoover in his hotel quarters
there was the usual furry of excitement in the
more excitable circles in Washington. The sug
gestion was put forth that General Macarthur
was conniving with these Republican opponents
OF administration policy, that he could be ex-
pected to carry the ball for them when he
appeared before the Senate committee
But General Macarthur has done nothing
of the sort. He described the continental defense
theory of Mr.. Hoover as the gravest possible mis-
take. And he said that any legislative limitation
on the size of forces to be used overseas, for
which Senator Taft fought hard during the
troops-for- Europe debate, as silly"
General Macarthur did not dispute the power of
Congress to prescribe any policy it wishes But he
spoke out strongly against the wisdom of at
tempting to substitute legislative or political
judgment for military judgment in military mat
ters. II should say" he told the committee,
that the advice of professional experts should
be weighed carefully indeed and, unless there
are specific reasons to the contrary that can
be eucidated with reason, that their advice
should be accepted"
sound counsel. 1t will be good thing for the
country if General MacArthurs Republican
admirers take it to heart

Britoin's Festival

The 1851 Festival of Britain has opened in
London with great pomp and gaiety The light
heartedness, however, has a certain sadness in
it-and perhaps more than touch Of escapiSm.
Five years ago, when the Labor government be-
gan drafting plans for the event. there was still
strong hope that by this time the world would
be enjoying good peace. But things have not
worked out that way. All too obviously, inter-
national affairs have gone from bad to worse.
Like every other people, the British who have
been doing without and living austerely for more
than decade past, are well aware of the war
in Korea and of what the morrow may bring
They do not need to be told that these are de-
pressing and dangerous days, nor can anybody
begrudge them the right to seek some pleasant
relaxation-and as many tourist dollars as pos
sible-in a show and celebration designed not
merely to commemorate the Victorian Exposition
of 1851 but also to demonstrate their national
genius and their faith in the future.
AS matter of fact, though this is anything
but festive period in the life of the world, the
fine new British exposition may be a lot less
ill-timed than it seems. AS King George has
said, in opening it, "All of us can paint the con-
trast between the calm security of the Victorian
age ana the hard experience Of our oy3L Yet

Templeton Jones announced he was

The spring, such as it was, had got

He fairly luSted to get after these

This hat was one of the surest signs
of spring, better than robbins even.
Not it's color, exactly, which was a
sort of red-brown
It was the fact that Jones wore it,
when he did. Robins might be symbols
of spring to most, but the Jones hat
held that place in his neighborhood.
'Take it easy" warned Mrs. Jones.
"You know how this sudden exercise
does one."
Templeton Jones smiled in his superior
manner.
That's because most do not have
enough sense to go at it in an easy
manner.

so easy that there is no chance of my

was the best exercise. It was of no use
for a human being to have intelligence
if it were not used. And used, let him
point out, at the very time needed, not
so much before, and certainly not after
wards but at the very time.
The very time, as Templeton Jones
put it, was the crux of existence.
If one took care of the very time, as
it appeared, everything would be all
right.

big white gloves.
Those gloves, too, were symbols.

skin off ones hands, or getting thorns
in them, when simple pair OF cheap
cotton gloves would do it,
1t was no use for Mrs. Jones to point
out that she did not like to wear gloves
while gardening.
Didn't surgeons, Jones asked, wear
gloves when they operated?
Any sensible person, by little use Of
the old think tank, could overcome many
of the hazards of life.
OF course, a bumblebee might get

thinking could do anything about, But

After he had moved the yard, and
raked it. he began to do the borders.
Squatting down, in the famous gar
dening position, he began to go along
with his sharp shippers.
Mrs Jones appeared at the door.
Take it easy" she warned, with a
smile.
II always do" replied Jones. THAT is
why I look so young"
Last year you got mighty sore by
clipping all around the border"
Jones worked his shippers furiously:
The clicking they made quite drowned
out the sparrows in the tree top.
The next day Templeton Jones was
late to breakfast.
When he started to take his seat at
the table, he said, "Ouch!"

Amateur Theuter
F. Campbell.

So "Theater Week" in Washington has
come and gone. 1nasmuch as it obvi-
ously was commercial promotion, de-
signed to help attendance at local
theaters, very few tears will likely be
shed over its departure.
The Board of Trade has it in its
power the ability to assist worthy move
ments in a more tangible manner, but
apparently does not know about or is
not interested in the lesser (and some
of them are not so SmalD cultural move
ments, theater- wise, in Washington.
There is very little encouragement
given to theatrical endeavors of any sort
in Washington. unless they are pro-
fessional and have much financial where
withal, or the political or financial bless
ing of some of the successful groups or
individuals.
Publicity, for example, is the life blood
of any theatrical venture. If this venture
happens to be amateur, its chances of
obtaining proper publicity, or even in
vestigation into its merits as deserving
venture, are practically nil. The dailieS
Gin the drama departments) have
policy not to mention shows planned
by amateur groups. let alone review them.
Catholic University shows are notable
exception, and no one begrudges them
this, as they do produce some very fine
shows.
One of the chief problems in this city
is the lack of auditoriums and the
exorbitant rentals imposed for those
which are available. 1t is true that
this situation has been explored with
sincerity by our drama critics. but no
particular good has been done. In the
halls with reasonable rentals, the stages
are inadequate to do anything ambitious.
and the seating capacity is not enough to
draw crowds enough to pay costs.
After ten years of struggling to do
something with amateur groups. this
writer, who has been engaged in produc-
ing and directing for 20 years, is giving
up the hope of accomplishing anything
in the amateur field in Washington. My
only consolation is that as good or bet
ter people in this same work have also
given up hope This is not a reflection in
any way on the merits OF the folks
who have tried. 1t is, however, gross

Reasonable Safety Measure

The District Commissioners should approve
without further delay the proposal OF Tramc
Director Keneipp that large trucks from which
hand signals are not visible should install electric
or mechanical turn signals. This is a reasonable
safety precaution which truck owners and drivers
should be willing to adopt without compulsion
If they will not do so voluntarily they should
be required by law to adopt it.
Mr. Keneipp wants the District traffic code
amended along the lines of the national code
and regulations in many States governing safety
sgnalss Actually, the present local code already
provides that electric or mechanical signals
must be installed when a vehicle is so con-
structed or loaded that a hand-and-arm signal
would not be visible both to the front and rear
of such vehicle" Difficulty has been encoun-
tered in enforcing this regulation, however, be-
cause of differences between truckers and pollce
as to relative visibility of hand signals called
into question In order to eliminate room for
doubt in such cases, it is proposed that me-
chanical signals or lights be required whenever
the distance from the center Of the steering
wheel to the outside of the truck or its load is
more than "a inches.
The amendment is supported by the Traffic
Advisory Council and by number OF trucking
interests here. Opposition has been voiced by
other truckers on the grounds that there is no

signals that the equipment is subject to damage
in backing of trucks and that too much expense
is involved 1t is silly to contend, however that
it is Just as safe to drive behind truck which
gives no visible signals of intent to turn as be-
hind one with turn indicators 1t is just as silly
to oppose installation of turn signals because
of damage hazards as to oppose rear stop lights
or license plates for a similar reason. AS for
expense one trucker aptly said that the invest
ment would be worth the money if even one
life were saved. The advantages of the signals
far outweigh the arguments so far advanced
against installing the

Wrong Way to Regulate Leave

1t is about time that the House Appropria-
tions and Civil Service Committees got together
on the subject of annual leave for Federal en-
ployes Last year the Appropriations Committee
pushed through Congress rider on the depart
mental appropriation bill that required Govern
ment employees to use all their leave during the
fiscal year or lose it. The rider was protested by
the Budget Bureau and defense officials on the
sound ground that it was unfair to employees
who are not permitted to take leave because of
emergency conditions. The Appropriations Com
mittee recommended that special study OF the
"entire leave situation" be made by the Civil
Service Committee. 1t good suggestion and
it is being carried out. After all, the Civil SerV-
ice Committee, not the Appropriations Commit
tee, is the proper group to pass on matters re-
latng to Federal leave.
But now the House. on advice of the Ap-
preparations Committee without awaiting action
by the Civil Service Committee, again has
tackled a leave rider on an appropriation bill.
The rider, strangely, was not mentioned IN
the committees report to the House on the
Independent Offices bill 1t was discovered
by Federal personnel officials when they exam
ined the measure. 1t would require Federal en-
ployes to use their 26 days leave for 1851 by
June 80, 1882 on penalty of losing it if they do
not No hardship will befall employees OF agen-
cies where there is no rush of defense work, OF
course but the rider will discriminate against
workers in such agencies as the Atomic Energy
Commission, the Civil Service Commission and
various busy regulatory agencies. Discrimina-
ton may occur within such agencies as
some Offices may be more burdened with work
than others
The rider is in sharp conflict with pro-
posed BILL now before the House Civil Service
Committee, to kill this years ban on accumulated
leave. The bill, introduced by Representative
Miller Democrat, of California, would permit
Federal workers to use up later the leave which
must be denied them now because of the emer-
gency. 1t is highly confusing to the House to
have one of it's committees recommending con-
tinuation of the leave restriction and another
committee-the one supposed to have Superv-
sion over leave legislation considering bill to
end the restriction. The Miller bill is said to
have strong support in the civil service group.
The rider method of amending the civil service
leave system is inherently wrong, for it by-passes
the Civil Service Committee a matter that it
should be consulted on. Congress ought to
drop the rider and refer the leave problem to the
Civil Service Committees for recommendation.

Buying Time in Korea

Gen. MacArthur's plan for winning
the war in Korea must not be
adopted 1t would endanger the Sc
curity of the United States by provoking
Soviet Russia. Even if the Kremlin re-
stricted it's attack to Korea, we would
face a grave threat.
If Russias Is Siberian divisions were
to join the Chinese Communist armies
in Korea and attack, U. N. ground forces
might have to evacuate Korea. The ships
carrying these men would be subject to
attack by Soviet submarines, and the
casualties could be great. American
ground forces in Korea represent
large part of our total trained ground
forces and, as such, are not expendable.
Now that we realize the danger of i'm
minent conflict with Russia in world
war, we know the critical need of trained
infantry to repel an initial Soviet attack
in Europe or Asia.
Our military experts say that Russia
is better prepared to Withstand an
atomic bomb attack than the United
States is at the moment. Surely Amer
leans must face the fact that our real
strength lies in United States industrial
potential; that we have just begun to
mobilize for war. If most of our indus
trial plants were destroyed by an atom
bomb attack, the United States would be
deprived for long time of its most
effective military resources. On the
other hand Stain has at his command
a large supply of tanks and planes ready
for immediate action.
Truman'S Far East policy is accom-
plishing two things: First, it buys time
to prepare for an ultimate world
war with Russia, and a possible
unprovoked attack by Russia on the
United States or it's Allies in Europe or
Asia. Secondly, Truman's policy limits
the future area of military conflict with
Soviet Russia This will make it un-
necessary to retake territory which
Communist China would, if unchal-
lenged, seize in the Far East; for ex-
ample. Indo-China, FormoSa, and the
Philippines. In the past world war we
learned the tremendous cost of retaking
territory conquered by the Japanese in

Arena Stage and the Gayety serve

a city, and to employ capable people.

presented on the Monument Grounds
and at memorials every year. The same

pie. The populace goes en- masSe. Where

actually doing something for the theater,
and for the people who may be future
leaders in the theater. And my bet is
that it will never catch the boat.
