No 'Good' Germans WE AMERICANS ought to stop making a dis- tinction between Nazis and freedom-loving Germans. There are no freedom-loving Ger- mans in Germany now. All were killed off by the Nazis years ago. All that are left are a bunch of weak-willed politically apathetic indi- viduals who will jump at the loudest command. Americans-the idealists, the people who suffer- ed least from the war, the people who have a great influence in the peace conference, ought to remember this. The willingness of the American people to absorb all this sop about "Hermann" Goering's great leadership ability and his jovial personal- ity, is just one plain indication of how easily we can be taken in. One American general shook hands with dear "Hermann," and scores of American newspapermen interviewed him and wrote "personality sketches." One columnist pointed out that the German people yelled "Hermann, Hermann" at Nazi party political rallies and that he couldn't ima- gine people yelling "Adolf" when Hitler appear- ed. The columnist shouldn't have made the distinction. Hitler and Goering are two of a kind. Because Goering has a jovial personality is no reason why his record shouldn't remain as black as he made it. It is absolutely necessary that when we begin building a new German nation that we should start from scratch, trusting no German until it is absolutely proven that he is freedom- loving. Let the war criminals be punished by those who suffered under them, and don't get sentimental about the Germans who "didn't want to go along with Hitler." There just aren't any such Germans left alive. -Marilyn Koebnick Truman and Taxes RESIDENT TRUMAN'S announcement that corporation and income taxes must remain as they are to protect the 85,000,000 individual war bond holders in the United States is to be commended because at this time, more than ever before, stringent measures must be taken to safeguard the country against inflation. The President indicated that concessions will be made in excise tax rebates and raising of the excise tax exemption as proposed in a pro- gram approved by Secretary of the Treasury Henry Morgenthau, Jr., which will provide suffi- cient relief to industries in a state of conversion to peace-time production. The maintenance of income taxes and cor- poration taxes at their present level will pot prevent industrial conversion and will curtail trends toward inflation. It is important that President Truman, having stated his views, will stick to them despite any pressure from advocates in Congress of tax reduction before the defeat of Japan. -Jeanne S. Cockburn A New Treason ACCORDING to yesterday's newspapers, Rep. Rankin, (D.-Miss.), will propose a bill, "full of dynamite, that goes far beyond our present laws of treason," to punish any person who at- By DREW PEARSON WASHINGTON-The State Department has one bucking-bronco ambassador on its hands and it doesn't quite know what to do with him. He is ebullient, energetic Patrick J. Hurley, ex-Secretary of War, ex-major general, now U. S. ambassador to China. Hurley holds th No. 2 ambassadorial job in the world. No. 1 is Moscow. Both China and Russia these days are more important than London, where relations are happy and serene. But in Chungking, the United States has been laboring to get both Chinese factions to fight Japan instead of fighting each other. If they don't get together, we face- another row identical with that in Poland. The State De- partment is worried sick that Stalin will recog- nize the Northern Chinese Communists as he did the Lublin government of Poland, leaving us burdened with the Chiang Kai-Shek gov- ernment which has dwindling support among the Chinese people. To sit in this tough trouble-spot, Roosevelt sent handsome, colorful ex-Oklahoma oil man and Choctaw Indian attorney, Pat Hurley. It was Pat's job to try to bring the two Chinese factions together. On his way back to Chungking from Wash- ington last month, Hurley stopped in Moscow where he called on Stalin. It was' a very im- portant interview for the purpose of keeping Stalin in line regarding China, preventing him from bolting the traces, renouncing Chiang Kai-Shek and coming out 100 per cent for the Northern Chinese. U. S. Ambassador Averell Harriman went with Hurley to make the call. Hurley's Platitudes T THE KREMLIN, Hurley said something to the effect that he hoped Stalin believed China must not be split up; to which Stalin, of course, agreed. Then he asked in effect: "You are for a uni- fied China, aren't you, Marshal?" Again Stalin, of course, agreed. There followed some other questions on inno- cuous points, and the interview was over. Am- bassador Harriman left by plane immediately for Washington, very much annoyed that Hur- ley had failed to take up any real issues with Stalin. Stalin had agreed only to obvious and general platitudes about China. But when Harriman arrived in Washington, he found Hurley had already cabled the State Department that Stalin had endorsed his pro- gram for China. Harriman promptly advised the State Department that this was not the case. However, Hurley's telegram somehow or other found its way to the Chinese embassy in Wash- ington, which cabled it to Chungking, where the Chiang Kai-Shek government gleefully spread the word that Stalin had agreed to its program. Naturally, Chiang's program calls for a minimum of cooperation with the Northern Chinese-in fact less than none. So now Chiang Kai-Shek is much less com- promising and the problem of getting the two factions together is right back where it was when Gen. "Vinegar Joe" Stilwell demanded that the Generalissimo cooperate and was fired for his pains. Meanwhile, Stalin may come out with full recognition of the Northern Chinese any mi- nute. NOTE-The State Department is also upset over the fact that Mrs. Hurley has accepted a bracelet said to be worth around $30,000 from the Chinese ambassador in Washington. Naturally, this is interpreted in Chinese circles as putting urrent Movies By BARRIE WATERS AttheMichign .. . "MURDER, MY SWEET" is what Hollywood fondly calls a "sleeper," meaning it's a film made on a low budget with a minor cast which turns out to be above-average entertain- ment. Its rating of above-average is justified to some extent. It has a good script and some commendable performances. Originality is not the film's forte, however. It is nmurder-melo- drama in the Humphrey Bogart manner and suggestive of such gory predecessors as "The Maltese Falcon" and "The Glass Key." For those who like this sort of thing, "Murder, My Sweet" is obviously a theatre-going oc- casion. It is based on a Raymond Chandler novel call- ed "Farewell, My Lovely" (the title has been changed for some vague reason best known to Hollywood itself). Chandler, who writes in the Dashiell Hammett manner, is having a Holly- wood vogue now, and this is the first of his works to reach the screen. Dick Powell, attempting a character role after many years apprenticeship in Warner musicals, plays Philip Marlowe, a private detective who becomes involved in a missing person case whose complicated ramifications involve Claire Trevor, Anne Shirley and a frightening giant thug who is a case of brawn over brain. Powell is successful in his characterization, although Bogart needn't worry too much about his posi- tion as number one tough guy. The support- ing cast is uniformly excellent. him squarely in the Chiang Kai-Shek camp and diminishes his usefulness as an impartial nego- tiator. Capial,( Chff . ABLE JUDGE Lou Schwellenbach of Washing- ton state was definitely offered the job of Secretary of Labor by Truman but went home to talk it over with his wife. Dave Beck, Team- sters' Union boss on the West Coast, is the chief man who put across Schwellenbach's appoint- ment. Lou would be an A-1 cabinet member but isn't looking for headaches. . . . William E. Leahy, the District of Columbia's foremost trial lawyer, has been asked by the justice department to try the alleged Hitler agents still facing indict- ments for sedition. . . . Senate colleagues of the late Sen. George Norris have been avidly reading advance copies of his autobiography, "Fighting Liberal." It will rate as one of the great books of the year-the story of the politi- cal struggle of America for nearly half a cen- tury. (Copyright, 1945, by the Bell Syndicate, ne.) I'D RATHER BE RIGHT: Signs of Softness By SAMUEL GRAFTON WE AMERICANS are watching each other for signs of softness in regard to Germany; we have no great faith in each other in this one particular field. General Stack's luncheon, with Hermann Goering has shocked us. But this is not a shock of surprise; it is the kind of shock we expected. It hits us hard because it fulfills our dreary expectations, not because it aston- ishes them. It carries the shock of confirmation of a bad dream. General Eisenhower has issued an order for- bidding such courtesies; but even this is un- convincing. When such an order has to be issued, the response made by our hearts is, oh, my. We still have to write it out on a piece of paper that it is not right to be nice to fascists. Americans as a whole have no great faith that Americans as a whole will punish war criminals adequately. That is a political fact; let us face it and analyze it. We lack faith because we know, deep down inside, that the method we propose to use is inadequate. That method is the method of law, of written, pre-existing interna- tional law; that is our way, our Anglo-Saxon way. We are wedded to the method of law, it does violence to our traditions to proceed on any basis but that of law, and we find it hard to admit that there may be extraordinary situ- ations in which the law, as one of the techniques of civilization, may be inadequate. W E KNOW, dismally, that existing law does not make fascism a crime, so we have to try to prove that the fascists were criminals in addition to being fascists; we have to try to show that they parked their tanks too long beside a fireplug while they were over-running Den- mark; we have to try to get them for a kind of "second crime," so to speak. We are com- pelled either to dstort the law, or to distort the meaning of fascist crime; that is our gloomy conflict It seems to me that the way out of this conflict is merely to step out of it. Why not take the problem out of the cramped area of the criminal law, and move it over into the area of military necessity, or into the area of emergency action to preserve the public peace and safety? For example: Suppose General Eisenhower were to issue an order requiring all Nazi party members with card numbers lower than 200,000 to remain in their homes, under house arrest, as a security measure to protect the occupying troops? Who could say that this would be an inap-. propriate action, or an extreme one? ONCE we step out of the narrow boundaries of the criminal law, we will find that we have great, yet legal, freedom of action. Suppose the allies, acting together, should determine that the presence in Germany of the top 200,000 members of the Nazi party, and of all Reichs- wehr officers above the rank of captain, is a threat to peace and order in the Reich, during the reconstruction period? Who can say that it would be illegal to order their exile to a pre- pared place? Supreme Court Justice Robert H. Jackson put it well, in his recent speech, when he said that we must not use our courts, in Germany, to carry out policy; courts must be courts; but that doctrine, he said, is no bar to having a policy, and to carrying it out, so long as we do it openly and frankly, and state our reasons, and don't disguise it as court procedure. We need courts to try war criminals, and we need a policy against fascists, too. We need both. Our di- lemma arises when we try to make the first do the work of the second, or when we refuse to admit that we need the second. Then we leave open a middle ground, in which such characters as Jodl and Doenitz may wander. It seems to me we are heading toward a great debate, in which those of us who are not terribly anti-Junker, or who are afraid of radicalism in Germany, will insist that we proceed by court action alone; they will argue for courts as a means of arguing against pol- icy; they will say that the bill of rights pre- vents us from taking action against men who took action against the bill of rights.
