Lilienthal as chairman of the Tennessee Valley Authority, Perhaps a way of expressing the above would be that he would have deserved censure had he not.

Mr. Lilienthal has directed the TV A since 1933 with such conspicuous ability and with such evident indifference to political considerations that he has converted some of those who most feared the experiment as an entering wedge for socialism, and has silenced all criticism except that of Senator Kenneth McKellar of Tennessee.

The reason, for the treatment of the prisoners, says Mrs. Luce, outside of the fact that it provided pleasure for the Nazis, was that the slow starvation of the prisoners engaged in working on the V-bombi destroyed the witnesses to the manufacture of secret weapons so that information about their construction should not fall into the hands of the Allies.

In other words, the Nazis revived, expanded, and added characteristic Nazi improvements to a custom originated by their gentler predecessors, the pirate captains, who killed the crew members who helped them bury their treasure in order that the hiding place should be a secret.

My name for hira was Grabail and at the outset, years ago. I printed: "He cannot possibly wm the war."

If that went through, legislation would be sought to give antitrust immunity to other industries obeying the government's recommendations. son, has operated is in marked contrast to the technique of the Senate Agriculture Committee, which has served as a sounding board for special interests warring on any and all price control.

The House group presents a set of recommendations that could well form the basis for a new food policy. Above alL they stress the need of offering real inducements to farmers to produce more food. They emphasize the need, too, for overall co-ordination of the food program. The majority of the committee, however, does not go so far as the Republican members, who urge "a single authority in charge of dl phases" of food production. The proposal would revive a practice of the Coolidge Administration.

At that time the Department of Justice ruled on whether mergers and other plans submitted to it might have foundation!

I could write an We do not see how anyone who reviews the history of the war can help shuddering at how close Hitler was to complete victory several times and marvelling that he missed it. If the Germans could have' invaded England immediately after Dun-kerque, they would have encountered not a single armored division. If they had equipped their bombers with tall-guns, or If the Spitfire had not been more heavily armed and a slightly better performer than the Messerschmitt, the London blitz would have succeeded.

At one time the total British naval force in the Mediterranean facing the Italian battle fleet consisted of three cruisers. If Rommel had had one more division at El Alamein in July, 1942, he could have taken Cairo and Alexandria, linked up with the Japanese, and split the British Empire in half. If Hitler had refrained from attacking Russia, nothing could ever have wrested the conquered lands of western Europe from him. If the V-bombi hadJaeen ready six months earlier in the numbers contemplated, there would never have been a D-Day and Britain as a base for operations would have been eliminated. Even if the Japanese had not attacked Pearl Harbor, ami the full production of the United States been thrown into the scale on the Allied side, we do not see how Germany could have been defeated; it has taken every ounce of strength, the most superb leadership, and some good luck in order to bring victory to the three most powerful nations in the world.

The evil power that Germany had built up when she launched her attack in 1939 is almost unimaginable; it is equally incredible that she has at last been beaten. It is certain that none of the Nazis has was defended on the grounds that court rul quality of the German state, in watching the efforts it has made to trot out a new government. It substitutes an Admiral Doenitz for a Hitler; i.e.. all it can do is bring forth a less important Nazi. If Doenitz won't do, the Germans will find a still less important Nazi, but they cannot make any change in kind, either from the bottom or from the top.

What a valuable national possession to the Germans now even a third-rate trade union leader would be, or an un compromised college professor! One such would be worth his weight in diamonds in dealing with us. But there seems no one of the sort available, and one senses, suddenly, that Hitler's greatest victory has been his victory over the German nation, and that we are dealing with a disintegrated people. There is almost nothing there to work with. Even Italy, with As many political parties, and its furious Partisan activity, seems bursting with political health, compared with Germany. We are dealing with a very sick thing in the Reich; a patient which has shown no signs of ability to recuperate, or even a desire to recuperate.

That is what soft peace advocates fail to understand; and their proposals that we be gentle with the Germans in order to encourage them, are like an effort to make a dying man spring out of his bed by holding a piece of candy in front of him. It is not going to be that easy; It is going to take time; during that time Germans must be put to work to rebuild what they have destroyed, for they can do day-work if nothing else; until at last the reintegrative process starts, and Germans suddenly look at each other and ask: How did we get here? What did we do wrong to end up so? One thinks of the hospital wards in which emotionally shattered soldiers try to work with their hands, and one can make no better prescription for Germany than occupational therapy until she can think again. ings were so contradictory that a business IT IS not washout significance that Mussolini was killed by Partisans, while Hitler's death, if he is dead, was an official affair, attended, on invitation only, by a few members of the inner government circle. Mussolini was killed by men who hated fascism; while Hitler's death, or the report of it, was used to keep fascism going. There is so Uttle revolutionary spirit in Germany that even the death of the dictator is used to roister the dictatorship.

It takes place, conveniently, only as an act of assistance to the regime, not a blow against it. There has been no real sign of upsurge in Germany at all. The reported "civil war" in southern Germany seems to evaporate mysteriously as our troops approach the areas in which it is supposed to be raging. And it is very late. Any revolutionary action now would be a dance after the ball is over: it was too late weeks ago for revolution in Germany to have real meaning, as an act of assistance to the Allies, as an act to shorten the war.

The total absence of anything which could be called revolutionary action in 'Germany is ttkW one of the most startling facts in the history of the world. Nothing quite like this has ever happened before. At most, there have been only sheep-like desertions by soldiers; not mutiny, just cut-and-run. Our reporters in the captured cities have been sickened by a certain groveling German smile; it has not been a smile of friendship for us, but something like the nervous smirk which pupils in a reformatory might turn upon a new headmaster. Aside from some rather small-scale underground activity in Munich, the most positive manifestations so far have been interruptions of official German radio speeches by a "ghost voice," uttering feeble japes, and giving no direction to the people.

"Once legitimate distribution has been disrupted and black market channels are set up," the report points out, "it becomes increasingly difficult to re-establish the normal channels of distribution and to make them subject to legal controls."

Belated Conviction of the Truth Of General Mitchell's Ideas One need not accept all claims of the more extreme exponents of air power to feel that Billy Mitchell's posthumous promotion to the rank of majoic general, and the award to him of the Congressional Medal, were not at all impetuous and premature. Any informed German or Jap would say that Mitchell's faith in the efficiency of aerial bombing has been justified. These honors to the pioneer of military aviation may mean that belated conviction has been forced upon that officer, now high in authority, who witnessed the first test sinking of a battleship by bombs and then told reporters: "Remember, what you just saw you didn't see.
