MILITARY VS.. CIVILIAN AUTHORITY

ANA y -
LAST WEDNESDAY was a very purple day in the
United States as the news spread that General Macarthur had
been relieved of his commands. Both those who spoke loudest
and those who moved silently, seemed aware that no ordinary
thing had unprecedented, indeed, the Presidents act might
spell the difference between victory or defeat for the free
countries OF the world; there was an air of calamity. Notice
able, too, was the fact that General Macarthur has taken on
mesSianic qualities for large numbers of people, although
other substantial numbers, including veterans, are no such
hero worshippers.
MOST IMPORTANT of all, the Macarthur Truman At
TAR pointed up the historic contest and conflict that has arisen
down the years, in nearly every country, between the military
and civilian authorities. In some nations the military mono
PohzeS the government and has final voice in most matters,
and military men run for, and fill, most of the top elective Of
noes IN tact, 1t has become automatic in those countries that
ne who controls the army is automatically the national head
(often dictator).
N THE United States, the Constitution, laws and prac-
tice have always reserved for civilians the highest policy-mak-
ing authority, even over the armed services. This hierarchy
has not always been pleasing to the military, for thew have
telt Since we must win the wars and save the country ever
SO often, we may as well run it, also" General MacArthlms
repeated talking out of school" had become, accumulatively,
a question OF whether the civilian authority could allow itself
to be superseded, in reference to Korea, by the military. Hon
est men will always have difference of opinion as to the Ma
tons role in Asia, but it is difficult for this writer to see how
President Truman could have done differently.
THIS WILL not be the end Of military attempts to take
over civilian authority and this country must expect the liza
bilideS as well as the assets which flow from maintaining a
large standing army, universal military training, and having a
relatively high proportion of its young men and women in
uniform and under military domination. 1t is not unfair to
say that a people tend to lose their freedom in proportion to
the dominance of the military mind and military authority.

I0f 70 Per Cent Tax Cul
Philip Morris Pays EorIy
To Ruise General Fund
To $105 Million Mark
BY the Assoeioted Press

| RICHMOND, Va, June 29.-
Philip Morris & Co., Ltd. manu-
lfacturer, today paid . State Ia,
bill early to assure virginians theil
income tax payments would be re.
duced 20 per cent.
THAT payment definitely viii
put the General Fund above $I0s
million at the close of business foi
this fiscal year tomorrow night,
said an official in the State Con-
troller's Office.
1t had been apparent to State
fiscal officials for some weeks that
the sharp jump in corporation in
come tax returns would send the
General Fund to $103 million Oh
more, at which point the reduction
would be Is per cent on persona
and corporate tax bills under thu
step-by-step act sponsored by
State Senator Harry F. Byrd, jr.
last year.
But yesterday officials of tht
tobacco manufacturing concern
checked with their New Yorl
headquarters and decided to dror
their tax payment into the State
Treasury to make sure the ta1
reduction for everybody would bt
10 per cent instead of is. The
20 per cent reduction is effective
with $105 million in receipts.
The payment. handed in to the
Department of Taxation this
morning and relayed to the State
Treasurer, was $520,338.03.
The payment normally would
have been made on or before
July 90.
The controllers office said the
General Fund would surely reach
$105, 100000 including the tobac-
co corporations return.
BY paying up early, the tobacco
corporation will realize tax re-
duction of something over $780,
900, instead of a reduction OF
$4,000 it would receive under
the is per cent figure.
