T. E. On The Record By Dorothy Thompson OUR AIR FORCE SPEAKS The Speech of the Prime Minister i I wrote recently of the statement made about five years ago to the effect that at the present rate of increase in mental cases, within fifty years one-half of the world would be curing for the other half because fifty per cent of the population would be inmates of mental institutions. Even more recently I pointed out that by the use of insulin and metrazol shock, a great many mental cases were being cured. i the curing of mental all- I menl.s has reached the highest point in history, nevertheless it must be remembered that m.tny a cases are not cured by our present methods including the shock treatment.

Why should there not be sdmc method of preventing the develop- of mental ailments or preve-nt- ing those with a tendency toward A most surprising story is this that comes out of Knoxviile of the act of the Army officer in declaring Knoxviile theatres out of bounds for the cadets training at the University of Ternessce. The reason given for this strange action is that the theatres refused to 'cooperate' by giving the cadets reduced rates. "As long as the reductions are not forthcoming, the boys will not be allowed to attend a single one of is the way this army officer is quoted.

There are a number of cadets at the University who are training for the army air service. Under similar circumstances, risers. it is said, theatres in other cities have voluntarily offered men in uniform reduced rates, which is a very nice patriotic gesture which does not cost them a great deal. When you stop to consider that in a few short months perhaps these same boys will be facing enemy fire while the theatres are still running to full houses, and that some of them undoubtedly will lay down their lives for their country within a year, it does seem that giving them a chance to get a i or cultural activities, nor in uthors. three directors, two pro- nd political education.

Yet it is clear, that whatever we think- of it, the theatre owners were within their rights. For the army authorities to use the power to declare certain districts out of bounds for the boys--a power Which is added.

"Lower morale my eye! They given them to protect the boys from evil A a means of punishing business establishments for failure carry out the wishes of the army authorities, is fundamentally wrong. It is an abuse of power that is contrary to democratic principles. It is. in effect, an effort to force compliance by a species of blackmail. It indicates a fascist mentality that is very disagreeable to the American people.

Apparently this officer has taken on himself to say to the theatre owners 'you shall charge so much and no more, or else'. This is what his attitude amounts to. If by the method he Uses to get his way hs been a a i than it was forces them to agree, the doors are wide open to all sorts of abuses. If he has the right to do this, what is to prevent him from exercising the same power over the restaurant operators and telling them that they must have special prices for men in uniform or from telling other business men what they may charge men in uniform for their goods or services on penalty of being blacklisted? Furthermore, if this officer has such a right, why should the thing not be done on a large scale and the army issue orders on the subject generally? Of course there is no danger of this being done, but the very fact that we take it for granted that it will not be done generally, is exactly the reason why it should not be done in a single instance. The principle is wrong and the admission of the use of a bad principle just once, is dangerous.

However sympathetic we may feel toward the idea of giving the cadets special consideration and however we feel that the officer is trying to do the right thing, we cannot admit that this is the right way to do it. It is very definitely the wrong way. It is much too much like the.sort of thing that goes on in Germany where civilians must step out of the way for men in uniform. There are more delicate ways of making the movie operators change their minds than by blackjacking them. There are more democratic ways of showing them that they are not doing the right thing.

So Mr. Churchill's speech-which was in no sense directed to America--is nevertheless a direct contribution to our own problems and discussions of them.
