LVW things the President has done

defense production agreement with
Canada.
• If any fact in all this world welter
of uncertainties is clear, it is that the
life and destiny of the United States
and Canada are interwoven for better
or for worse.
It is decreed by geography. It is
sustained by common language and
ideals. It is cemented stronger
through the years by economic forces.
Even the periodic outbursts of
Yankee imperialists, which are as un-
representative of our democracy as they
are insulting to our free neighbors,
only occasionally sully that deeper part-
nership they cannot destroy.
But even the best relationship of
such nations can be made better. Par-
ticularly when the sheer size of one
creates problems for the other — and
thus for both. With us and Canada,
this is the case culturally and econom-
ically. Ours would be even a healthier
and happier relationship if less lop-
sided; if, in the mutually profitable
interchange of ideas and goods, we
took more of what Canada has to give.

Egypt and the west
coast of Africa.
If the German vic-
tory in the Balkans is
any surprise to the
American people, it is
only because the Ad-
ministration has not ef-
fectively warned this
country of the hard task
in which we are en-
gaged.
I say in which we
are engaged because the
Administration has Mr. Clapper
made British victory, total victory, its
objective. Our purpose is the same as
if we were deep in the fighting. It is
only in the technical sense that we are
at peace and in the sense that we have
given Hitler no opportunity to hit at us
directly.
We have now the important union
with 'Canada. It is a close union, going
far beyond the joint military defense prep-
arations that were begun under the
Ogdensburg agreement of last summer.
Now, through the conversations at Hyde
Park between President Roosevelt and
Prime Minister Mackenzie King, the two
governments are entering upon a close
economic and industrial alliance.
* * *
TT is a union which pools, so to speak,
1 the resources of the two countries un-
der the principle that each country should
’provide the other with the defense articles
which it is best able to produce, and to
produce quickly. Thus we have Canada
and the United States, the one at war
with Germany and the other technically
at peace, uniting in a common effort
against Hitler.
What transpired in the Hype Park con-
ference is not fully known. But it would
not be surprising if between the two gov-
ernments is an understanding—a gentle-
men’s agreement if nothing more formal
—that neither would acquiesce in a Hitler
victory without the consent of the other.
One of the dangers to us of a final
British defeat would be the danger of

How to Protect Labor
TT was not wise for A.F.L. President
A William Green to say that organized
making peace and setting up a Vichy-
type government. Such a turn of af-
fairs on our northern border, fringing our
great industrial areas, would be intoler-
able.
That was the implication in Pesident
Roosevelt’s celebrated Kingston pledge of
nearly three years ago, when he declared
that if Canada should ever be attacked,
the United States would not stand idly
by. By that declaration, President Roose-
velt brought Canada under the protection
of the Monroe Doctrine, as Greenland was
brought under it only recently. We guar-
antee to protect Canada from attack.
But by that we also mean, as with Latin-
American countries, that we would resist
any other attempt to achieve the same
ends even though they came about not
by foreign attack but by acquiescence in
foreign domination.

problem even in so-called normal times,
when it can be balanced partially by

Now, however, with the huge de-

labor faces “vicious" legislation by
Congress “because, of the C.I.O.’s un-

Both pot and kettle are well
smudged with blame for the present
feeling of Congress. If C.I.O. unions
have called more and bigger strikes
in defense industries, A.F.L. unions
have outraged public opinion by juris-
dictional work stoppages and extortion-
ate “initiation fees."
Congress, in our opinion, does not
desire to- be “vicious" toward organ-

So the situation not only increases
her financial strain and decreases her
opportunity for capacity production, it
also restricts joint defense effort and
further unbalances our economic rela-

labor's membership. But if Congress
has come to feel that drastic legisla-
tion is necessary to protect the defense
program from unwise labor leadership,
that is hardly remarkable.

T.ETAILS of the agreement are not
D known. In general, however, it is
explained officially that we shall buy
from her more defense products, rough-
ly equal to the present unfavorable
trade balance;' and that she will use
this $300,000,000, or so, for additional
purchases here.
How well such an arrangement will
work is for the experts and time to
tell. We don't know.
But we believe public opinion here
almost unanimously will welcome every
intelligent effort of Washington and
Ottawa to lubricate and improve the
exchange mechanism of our economic
and defense partnership.
In addition to what the two gov-
ernments can plan, of course there is
much that individuals can do. By
“buying Canadian” and—at least for
the lucky ones — vacationing in the
Dominion, we can help them; and so
help ourselves by providing them with
dollars to buy even more United States
products. And we can try to under-
stand, as apparently some of us do
not, why it is better at the moment
for them to use those dollars buying
defense products from us rather than
by personal touring in the United
States.
Over all, we can give our Canadian
brothers the sympathetic understanding
and warm regard they have earned in
peace and war.
Taxation Temptation
T ONDON newspaper commentators, j
Li reports the United Press, are call-
ing the new British budget “immoral"
because:
T TOW could it be otherwise, when
1 those who head the factions of.
labor continue to wage their own civil
war at the expense of true national
unity, and hurl at each other uglier
charges than most outside critics would
care to make?
We hope Congress will at least
greatly modify the pending Vinson
bill, approved by a majority of the
House Naval Affairs Committee. This
measure has not received sufficient con-
sideration in committee. Those who
object to its provisions have not had
chance enough to be heard. It goes
much too far in several directions —
especially in imposing fines and prison
terms for strikes or lockouts during
the “cooling off” periods it proposes.
If it were practicable, it would be
foolishly wrong to attempt to jail men
for refusing to work in private em-
ployment at any time.
. But we fear Congress won’t be
much impressed by the fact that Mr.
Green and C.I.O. President Philip Mur-
ray for once agree, and that both op-
pose the Vinson bill.

DUBLIC opinion is the force that
A can protect organized labor from
unsound legislation, and it will work
to that end—if, but only if labor dis-
plays a real sense of its own respon-
sibility and a proper regard for public
rights. And there are encouraging
signs.
The willingness of unions and man-
agements to settle their quarrels, once
they are referred to the President’s
Defense Mediation Board, is one such
sign. Another is the agreement by
Pacific Coast shipbuilders and workmen
to‘adjust all disputes by arbitration,
with neither strikes nor lockouts dur-
ing the defense emergency. It may
well become, as President Roosevelt
hopes, an example to the rest of the
nation. Still another—especially if It
Miss A earns $2000 a year and
pays an income tax of $624, while her
friend, Mr. B, earns $4000 and pays
$1524, their total tax being $2148. If
, they should marry, Mr, and Mrs. B, '
earning $6000, would have to pay the
British government $2304. So, the ar-
gument runs, Miss A and Mr. B are
given incentive to “live in sin” and
. eave $156 a year in taxes.
We've found plenty of other things
t in our income-tax blanks, but this hor-
j rid pitfall isn’t there. In the United, 1
forecasts similar action by other C.I.O.
unions- is the expulsion of two officers
of a Baltimore shipbuilders' union on
charges of Communistic activity.
Every step by labor toward self-
discipline and genuine co-operation in
the defense program will help to de-
feat extreme legislative curbs on la-
bor’s rights.
Bomb-proof shelters protecting
against any known type of aerial bomb
can be built, some American engineers
say, but such construction is costly.
CANADA and Mexico, neighbors on
U either side, have governments which
fortunately hold views coinciding with
ours in this matter. Both recognize that
their greatest asset in the last analysis
is the industrial machine and the rapidly
developing war strength of the United
States. Through the close co-operation
of both Canadian and Mexican govern-
ments, the whole defense of the Western
Hemisphere will be enormously strength-
ened and the danger of any power being
able to make a flank attack on us through
neighboring countries is practically ended.
Thus the foundations of our defense
are greatly strengthened to the North and
to the South.
But our Government sees more in this
than strictly defense of these shores. Its
effort still is to keep the war on the other
side of the Atlantic. No matter what
happens in the Mediterranean, Britain
still, is the outpost for us. It still is the
barrier to menacing threats against the
Western Hemisphere.
On the shoulders of American industry,
now to work closely with Canadian in-
dustry in exchange of raw materials and
special parts, rests the main brunt of the
task of holding that outpost across the
Atlantic. To let it go is to fall back to
our own waters, perhaps to our own coast-
line, and to sentence the American peo-
ple to live thereafter under the constant
danger of attack and under the constant
necessity of being prepared against sur-
prise.

MR. SIMMS
No nation is
more eager, to banish the specter of war
from the Pacific than the United States.
Privately, however, officials express the
opinion that the Japanese foreign minister
will delay his journey for the time being.
The reason for that opinion is this:
Shortly after the World War, rela-
tions between Japan and the United States
became strained. The United States had
taken the lead against Nippon’s "21 de-
mands" which tended to make China a
Japanese protectorate in 1915. It also
opposed Japan’s seemingly permanent oc-
cupation of Eastern Siberia and Shantung.
• • •
TN 1920, the situation had grown so
1 tense that it was clear something had
to be done or there would be trouble. At
the same time a naval race among the
principal powers, including the United
States and Japan, added to the peril. So
Washington called a double-barreled par-
ley — a naval and a pacific and Far East-
ern conference — to bring about an under-
standing.
Nine powers attended. They were:
Japan, China, the United States, Great
Britain, France, Italy, Belgium, Holland
and Portugal. All were interested in a
Far Eastern settlement. Five—Britain,
the United States Japan, France and Italy
—were in the naval race.
American policy was thix: If the pow-
ers could agree on a basis for a lasting
understanding in the Pacific and Far East,
the United States would set the most gen-
erous example in naval reduction and lim-
itation. If not, there would be no lim-
itation.
But there was a Pacific and Far East-
ern understanding. The nine powers other
than China agreed "to respect the sov-
ereignty, the independence and the terri-
torial and administrative integrity of
China” and "to provide the fullest and
most unembarrassed opportunity to China
to develop and maintain for herself an
effective and stable government.”
** *
THIS was called the Nine Power Treaty,
1 Japan signed it along with the rest,
freely and of her own accord. Her dele-
gation helped to frame it. Based upon
the already universally accepted open door
doctrine of John Hay, it was hailed
throughout the world as a new milestone
in international justice. China, then weak
and chaotic, was not to be taken ad-
vantage of and dismembered by her more
powerful neighbors.
Just a decade later, Japan violated the
Nine Power Pact by invading Manchuria.
Since then she has hardly ceased her ag-
gressions against the nation she had
agreed to help. And relations between
Japan and the United States have grown
progressively worse.
The United States, officials here ob-
serve, would like nothing better than to
be on the most cordial terms with Japan.
There is no natural reason, they say, why
the two countries should clash. On the
contrary, they should co-operate. Normal-
ly, she buys our cotton, we buy her silk.
She buys our steel, we buy her toys. She
buys our gas and automobiles, we buy her
porcelains and a thousand other things.
If there is conflict of policy today, it is
due solely to something artificial—to the
ambitions of a military clique bent on
cornering all Eastern Asia and the South
Pacific for Japan’s own exclusive use.
If Mr. Matsuoka wants to come to
Washington, it is said, to engage in con-
versations in the spirit of the live-and-
let-live Nine Power Pact which Japan
signed, he can rest assured, in advance,
■ that his trip will meet with great success

Today's Poem
APRIL RAIN
I All day long the clouds
Have driven wildly o’er the hill-y
Hurrying and crowding each other
Splashing torrents on a thirsty
land. "
At intervals the wind
Catches up the spill and sprays
The scene with a blinding mist
And then lets go
A steady patter below
My window and silver strands
From eaves to earth
Keep me conscious there’s nothin
To do but read or restrospect nA •
In pleasant reverie,
J. D. EASLEY.
Crossett, Ark. '
