Irreconeilable GOP ONE of the most ridiculous of the Republican campaign tactics is the attempt to make an issue of disunity in the Democratic party. The reactionary Republican press howls with glee at the Texas and South Carolina revolts. Hosts of fair weather friends defend Senator Barkleys in his short-lived choleric burst at the president's tax veto. Not so veiled rumors are spread about other suggested disagreements, grievances and revolts of the Southern Demo- crats against the New Deal. But actions belie Republican assertions. The recent primaries have eliminated such Demo- cratic intransegents as Joe -Starnes, Dies and "Cotton Ed" Smith and others. And the ardent southern New Dealers, Hill and Pepper, have been renominated. The Texans seem reconciled by the vice-presidential compromise-substitut- ing the liberal Truman for the higher-liberal Wallace. And generally the Democrats are iron- ing out their difficulties with only a little if any sacrifice of essential principles. BUT on the other side of the fence the Repub- lican irredentalists must be considered. The young Republicans are having a hard time try- ing to swallow their heritage of Old Guard reaction, isolationism and bigotry. Dewey must consistently guard against his esteemed running mate's rather shady past connections. The G. L. K. Smith incident probably won't (be the last. Ham Fish's renomination won't bolster the fine Republican anti-discrimination declara- tions. Not even by the nomination of Dewey, a man with no .stated political philosophy as yet, but with a New York governorship record blight- ed by negativisnm and hyperconservatism, can the Republicans hope to reconcile their irreconcil- ables. -Doris Peterson Total War WASHINGTON MERRY-GO-ROUND: Use of WASPS Irks Congress SUNDAY, AUG. 6, 1944 VOL.

Walte Lectures Monday, Aug. 7: Dr. John Somer By DREW PEARSON W ASHINGTON, Aug. 5-Air forces commander General "Hap" Arnold may not know it, but he is facing a regular cloudburst from Capi- tol Hill as soon as Congress gets back to a full-time job. The Congressmen are up in arms over Ar- nold's efforts to sidetrack the law by continu- ing to use the WASPS while more than 5,000 trained men pilots, each with an average of 1250 flying hours, remain idle. All this has happened after Congress refused to let the WASPS be incorporated into the regular Army. Fact is that the Government has spent more, than $21,000,000 training lady flyers, primarily at the behest of vivacious aviatrix Jacquelin Cochran, wife of financial magnate Floyd Od- lun. Magnetic Miss Cochran seems to have quite a drag with the Brass Hats and has even persuaded the Air Forces' smiling commander to make several secret trips to Capitol Hill to lobby for continuation of her pets, the WASPS. Though not generally known, twenty-five WASPS have already been killed while ferrying planes in the United States. Further, after almost two years of training and the expenditure of millions of dollars, only eleven WASPS are able to fly twin-engine pursuit planes and only three are qualified to pilot four-engine bombers. n lz jobs with the air transport command, but still Jacky Cochran trains more WASPS. These flyers point out that the WASPS, like the WACS, claim they were recruited to release men for active service. Now they say the WASPS are "just replacing men, period." THE FEDERAL Communications Commission is usually in hot water with the big broadcast- ers, but the latest sizzler was touched off -by the' CIO's United Automobile Workers. They want the FCC to take away the license of Station WHKC, Columbus, Ohio. The Commission has never taken away a radio license in its ten years of existence. Its prede- cessor, the Federal Radio Commission, took away only three-and those because the stations were owned by quacks. The auto workers,, however, claim that WHKC has suppressed freedom of speech by censoring a script by UAW official Richard T. Franken- steen. As part .of its brief to the FCC, UAW, enclosed portions of broadcasts by Fulton Lewis, Jr., and Boake Carter, heard over WHKC, which dealt with the same subjects that were cut from Frankensteen's script. Lewis and Carter took an anti-labor viewpoint and were not censored. Labor is also plenty het up over NBC's recent cancellation of the Labor for Victory program because the network considers anything CIO does to be "political" in an election year. Even more ,disturbing to the networks is the pressure drive by the National Association of Manufacturers to force a series of thirteen quarter-hour transcriptions on the nation's 900 radio stations. The series is called "Business Men, Look to the Future," and NAM is asking free time for these programs. The letter sent to all broadcasters asking for free time states that "local business men will,be informed of the degree of cooperation received from each station. On the'letterhead, are featured the names of Alfred P. Sloan, Jr., and James S. Adams. Sloan is chairman of General Motors, which bought $835,884 worth of radio time last year; also a director of E. I. du Pont de Nemours, which spent $608,400 for radio time. Adams is president of Standard Brands, Inc., which spent $2,168,422 for radio time last year. No wonder the networks are jittery.

Here is a poetic putting of the fact of faith as against the will to legalize values into existence. There are at least three zones of our common life where values are needed but absent, and we seem unable to do anything about it: (1) The black-white growing tenseness; (2) The falling apart of groups in the political cam- paign; and (3) The estrangement between soldier and production worker. In some states, the legislators have attempted laws on one or more of these perplexities. In the black-white case, Congress in hearings and the Supreme Court, in reversal of an old decision, have appealed to specific action. What Hooker was emphasiz- ing was that faith must be altered and values already with us must be invoked or the surface acts will be in vain. In fact; the surface acts of legislation when good in the view of history may immediately make worse the very case which such legislations are designed to correct. WHAT, THEN, can one do for his country when such a dangerous psychological period comes upon us? Here is where a genuine high religidn should serve. Religious citizens, fam- ilies, neighborhoods, groups stretch- ing across states and regions can be of rare national assistance. We know that the Quakers, for example, due to a peculiar training and a certain sensitivity, on the one hand will slow the anger of their communities and on the other, will awaken the corres- ponding duty. Those "old-fashioned aristocrats" whom we designate as out of the American past will be the gentleman and lady regardless. Be- neath the folds of their generous 1 skirts, as it were, the hounded minor- ity person can be hidden until danger is past. The values cultivated in man's soul long before they can possibly be framed into law or stated as a move- ment become, in these groups of in- dividuals, a social guarantee in ad- r Vance. He' who loves his university, in e common with each who takes de- light in the pursuit of learning, and every eager student whose heart is in his work, wishes he could find assurance that our alumni scattered across the nation, and all our fellows in Ann Arbor might constitute such a family of sacred - honor. * No such assurance can be ours to- r day. But eventually when the in- e signia "Bachelor of Arts" really be- acomes one with this law which t ooker finds only in God, we shall - be able to assert that, by the Demo- g cratic Way, we have actually ma- t tured.

Congress Counts, Too AMERICAN voters today are focusing their attention too much on presidential nominees at a time when an effort should be made to evaluate other candidates in the coming elec- tion. Vitally important to the future of this nation in the war and postwar world is the Congress we elect in November. Thus the reorganiza- tion yesterday of the CIO Political Action Com- mittee here is an encouraging sign of an at- tempt to arouse Ann Arbor voters to an aware- ness of the Importance of the coming election both for president and for Congress. Pledged to the support of President Roose- velt and to the defeat of Earl C. Michener, the PAC has undertaken a heavy responsi- bility in a predominantly Republican district. It is to be hoped that the PAC will take act- ive steps to bring to the voters of Washtenaw County both the Democratic and Republican records. Only thus can the voters evaluate the candidates and choose the best man for the job. F THE PAC can point out to the voters of this county Dewey's record as governor, of New York State, how he turned down the federal soldier vote and refused to support state bills to stop the sources of race riots in Newy York State, they will have taken a great step toward presenting vital facts. If they point out Michener's opposition to a federal ballot and his objections to subsidies and higher taxes, A- _ _ ,rll ..10 p.x? +sa vn+. . C n n +nnh n AFTER CONGRESS refused to let the WASPS into the Army, Arnold and Miss Cochran adopted back-door strategy. It was arranged to sign the WASPS up as WACS, then have them reassigned to the Air Forces, this despite Con- gress' clear ruling that the WASPS should not be taken into the regular Army. When Col. Oveta Culp Hobby, head of the WACS, got wind of this deal, she sent emissaries on forced marches to Capitol Hill to have her rank raised from colonel to brigadier general. Oveta was afraid that Jacquelin Cochran would be made a colonel in the WACS and wanted to outrank her. All of which has made Air Corps pilots and transport flyers see red. Hundreds retiring from active combat are anxious to stay in the Army as transport ferry pilots. More than a thousand discharged pilots are unable to get 1 1 BARNABY Isn't it about time we got that pirate treasure, Mr. O'Malley?
