EDITORIALS SPEEDING INTO WAR Announcement in Berlin of new pians for mechanization of the German army is a reminder that the world may never again see immobile warfare of the kind on view in the last war. The new German army aims at speed.

Motor vehicles are being provided in the unheard-of ratio of two ears for every four infantrymen. Artillery is being motorized; the tank corps is being vastly expanded; the underlying principle is that the next war will be an affair of rapid movement, with the side which is able to strike the quickest winning an overwhelming advantage. All of this is an indication that military science once more is getting back to its time-honored General Forrest expressed so aptly with his remark about getting there first with the most men. The conditions under which the last war was fought were abnormal. Never again, let us hope, will young men be killed by the millions simply because armies are too swollen and cumbersome to do anything but engage in a slugging match.

Then the difficulties of the former liquor chairman which still pile tip, the trouble over the refunding warrants, in which the governor was directly involved, the unsavory conditions uncovered by the legislative liquor investigation and the charges hurled at various state cfficials by the crusading editor of the Cedar Rapids Gazette, the wholesale resignations under fire of city officials in Sioux City, the failure of the democratic state chairman to report his campaign contribution and the acrimonious arguments between different members of the governor's official family in which the governor himself has been too frequently involved. Yes, it is a mess, a sad one.

And Farley, who hopes to keep Iowa in the democratic column again, asks Louis Murphy to clean the Augean stables of Iowa democracy and keep the state democratic. Well, Murphy probably could do it if anyone can. And besides the junior senator has not shown any keen desire to come back to Iowa for that purpose. No, if given a choice Louie probably would elect to take another trip to Ireland this summer.

Representative Hubert -Utterback turned back the pages of history to argue for his theory a return to the NRA or some similar social controls of business and industry were inevitable.

"Never in the history of this country," he said, "has the supreme court rejected as unconstitutional a major piece of legislation which' social progress demanded but that the constitution has been amended to cope with the situation. 'Take the Dred Scott decision for example," he said. "It stirred high feelings and it took a civil war to bring the inevitable results. But they came. Take the federal income tax.

Once ho is safely locked away in prison ha drops out of sight, and that, in sonic ways, is too bad. If his dreary, monotonous years behind the bars could get the same attention his lawless forays got, he might lose a good deal of his glamour in the eyes of impressionable youth. This thought pops up when one reads a brief news dispatch telling how former underworld "gun molls" have settled down to the use of mop and broom in the fed- eral detention prison at Milan, Mich.

A VERAGING over 70 years, the justices have been brought up on the old-fashioned political-economic system.

I To establish either Fascism or runs the private reasoning of the must first break down thority and local and state anton- i omy. That autonomy is a bulwark against either. NRA was too huge a dose to swallow. Read the Humphries "decision to see how there again the court unanimously acted to curb i "usurpation" of executive power tending toward dictatorship and even the Frazier-Lemke decision, curbing extension of the federal power over private property. All of which is the most tative backstage explanation as to why the court reverted to its more reactionary decisions instead of pressing on from liberal decisions which.had given New Dealers hope.

Some liberals will answer that in curbing federal social-economic legislation it cuts off the with which powerful forces and trends noiv making.for Fascism might be throttled fOOD or bad. the NRA decision is exasperating because it makes future industrial legislation a wasteful, hazardous guessing game. Instead of telling Congress what it could do. the court told what it couldn't do It's an old custom which isn't designed to confuse the country, slow up national progress, provide business for lawyers, or drive framers of legislation it has those effects. The administration is left to spar around with new legislative attempts until it hits on a formula acceptable to a court which frequently changes its mind.

Unwilling to predict the form of the new step or the time it would take, he insisted there was no alternative to eventual action to make social controls again available.
