A SILLY MOVE
This new government order ban-
ning spare tires from new auto-
mobiles is downright silly. It is
done to save rubber but let's see
how.
Nobody wants to drive a car
without a spare so the first thing
you do when you get that new
car is tell the dealer to get a spare.
Just how that will save rubber is
beyond us.
But. here's what it will do—in-
crease the sale of tires’ and make
that new car cost more to the buy-
er than heretofore.
Here's the silly part. President
Collyer, of the Goodrich Rubber
Co., and he should know, says 'iwe
have enough raw and synthetic
rubber on the nation’s stock pile to
see us thru if the war continues
for four more years.

THE REFORMATION
Reforms seem to be the order of
the day and even the weather is
coming in for investigation. We
have depended upon the U. S.
Weather Bureau to predict the fair
and foul for us and have generally
abided by their decisions. Now
there is some dissention about
what is what in weather. Three
Senate subcommittees have been
listening to numerous witnesses
testify for and against artificial
rainmaking. The cloud-tappers who
favor the modern method of creat-
ing precipitation by experiments
with dry ice and silver-iodide, have
a wide follewing. This is not agree-
able to the Weather Bureau and
rieteorolegists, for the most part,
who are not sold on cloud-seeding,
feeling unconvinced that if rain
was not ready to fall anyway, man-
ufactured rain wouldn’t be of much
consequence. Senators are listening
favorably however to the rainmak-
eis, so who can tell what may come
of this?

MAC ARTHUR'S SIDE
In the controversy over General
of the Army MacArthur, our sym-
pathies are entirely with the Gen-
eral. Never before has an Am- |
erican Commander had to direct
such a project as troops be-
our
came involved in via the United |
Nations . . . .
Gen. MacArthur was command- |
ing men who are fighting, suffering |
wounds and dying at the hands of
enemies. They are not sitting com-
fortably in Lake Success, Washing- |
ton, London or Delhi; they were |
sent, not by MacArthur but by
President Truman and the U. N.
and they have a right to know
what objective they are there to
achieve, or whether they are in for
a war ad perpetum—in which nei- |
ther side can, win, though they keep
on killing and being killed.
Semetime ago General MacAr-
thur said flatly that, under the pol- |
icies imposed upon his command,
it is impossible to conclude the
Korean war—that all we can de is |
hold our own and inflict maximum |
possible losses on the enemy while |
we husband our own strength as |
best we can. A primary strategic |
goal in any war is to destroy the |
enemy's sources of supply.
In|
the Korean war—which is no long- |
er being waged against the North |
Koreans but against the Red |
Chinese—the supply bases lie a-
cross the border in China. Yet Mac-
Arthur could not even send a plane |
across that border. So the Chinese |
armies can be organized and train- |
ed and equipped without fear of |
atiack, and then moved into Korea. |
The naval situation in that part |
of the world is equally unpreced- |
ented. A great fleet, the 7th, is on |
constant patrol in the waters be- |
tween Formosa and the Chinese |
mainland. And the task of this]
fleet is not to fight Red China, but |
just the contrary. The command- |
ing admiral’s orders are to prevent |
Chinese National troops on Formo- |
sa from raiding the mainland. So,
because of the presence of Ameri-
can seapower off China, that pos-
silile threat to the security has
heen averted!
The State Department was, man-
ifestly, seriously disturbed when |
MacArthur publicly stated that he|
was willing to meet the enemy |
cemmander in chief in the field |
and to discuss terms for ending
the bloodshed. The General was)
called down, though the words]
used were polite and evasive, as is |
always the case with a man of his |
reputation and position. Of this, |
there is nothing unprecedented in|
a commander offering to meet his |
opposite in the field to discuss al
truce . . . What is unprecedent is |
for the political authorities who |
have put a commander in the field
against an enemy to leave him]
without and directives that can|
be translated into rational military
terms. The General is damned if
he does and damned ih he doesn't. |
Another trouble is that most of |
our allies in the Korean war are
far from enthusiastic. The bulk]
of the U. N. countries followed our
lead because they ceuld do noth-|
ing else. Britain is the prime ex-
ample. Britain doesn’t want to]
alienate Red China. She is offer- |
ing Red China various forms of ap- |
peasement—while British soldiers

to us as though the builder was
removed with the house about half
completed. Can his successor fin-
ish the job successfully or will
thsusands upon thousands of our
young men sacrifice their lives due
are fighting bravely and dying |
The idea, of course, is that war
must be avoided at almost all cost. |
But to the soldiers in Korea a very |
real and extremely bloody war is|
in process right

now—as it is to
to » gamble is the $64 question
which time enly will tell,
We will admit there should be a
lot of “firing” done but in and not
by Washington, D. C.
If MacArthur was good enough
and smart enough to win one war
he should have been given a fairer
deal in Korea.

We have torn up at least twelve
sheets of paper trying to write at
what age a man should be called
into the service of his country. To
