Postwar Flying Mix-Up .
BY PETER EDSON
NEA Washington Correspondent
WASHINGTON-—The big argument over whether
the United States should be represented in postwar
international aviation by one big, joint “chosen
instrument” company or a number of competing
companies operating under principles of “freedom!
of the air” has been lost sight of for a couple of
months, but behind the scenes there has been a goodl
bit of intricate maneuvering. l
Newest chupter‘ in the State Department-Senate
Foreign Relations Committee impassee over inter- |
national air policy has just been introduced by
Missigsippi Senator Theodore Bilbo, of all people.
Bilbo isn’'t a member of the Foreign Relations
Committee, but he is a member of the Commerce
Committee which also has a fist in this stew. Bilbo's
action in making public a letter from Acting Secre-l
tary of State Joseph Grew, defending the State,
Department’s right to take the United States intoi
international aviation agreements through execu
tive order, without Senate ratification, may againl
oring to a boil this dish which has been simmering
on the back of the stove for so long a time. ‘
AIR FREEDOM PROGRAM PROGRESSES
While the Senate has been unable to make up itsi
mind and determine a policy, the State Depart
ment’s “freedom of ‘the air” program, mapped at
the Chicago International Civil Aviation Confer
ence last fall, has peen moving right ahead. Thirty
nations—four more than the necessary 26—have
already ratified the Chicago agreements and Canada
is preparing to issue invitations for a first meeting
of the provisional organization’ which will regulate
international air commerce until a permanent or
ganization can take over within the next three
years,
In the smeantime, the U. 8. Civil Aeronautics
Board, meeting with President Truman, is supposed
to have laid on his desk a recommendation that
North Atlantic flying rights be given to three com
peting companies—Pan American, Transcontinen
tal Western, ang American Export or its, American
Airlines-controlled successor.
The President may turn down the CAB recom
mendations but since they are’believed to have
been made with strong representations as to
urgency, approval by the White House would con
front the supporiers of the jointly owned cqmpany
jdea—principally Pan American and United Air-l
lines—with opposition® as good as established. 'l‘hel
only way to stop such a development would be
threugh prompt action in Congress, the passage
of new laws defining a different policy. With
Congress now g'e‘u‘y. to go home for the summer,
any such achipement would be difficult, to say
the least.
Background maneuvering which brought out the
letter from Secretary Grew to Senator Bilbo is
interesting. About a month ago the Executive
Council of the American Federation of Labor,
stirred up by advocates of the one: big airline
policy, issued a statement that the executive agree
ments on international aviation promulgated by
President Roosevelt were illegal, should be with
drawn and submitted to the Senate for ratification.
Using this as a springboard, Senator Bilbo was
moved to take the A. F. of L. statement, send it to
the State Department and ask in effect, “What's
this all about?”
STATE DEPARTMENT'S BIG CHANCE
This was just the opportunity the State Depart
ment had been waiting for. Its side of the argu
ment was locked up in off-the-record testimony
before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee,
but the opposition Wwas spreading disapproval of
State Department policy wherever possible.
Grew’s reply to the Bilbo inquiry is therefore a
strong defense of State Department’s right to make’
the executive agreements adopted at Chicago on
interim organization and freedom of the air pclicies.
It is being backed up by a more legal argument
prepared by Stephen Latchford of the State De
partment’s aviation staff and printed in the current
State Department bulletin. Together the Grew and
Latehford documents serve as a rebuttal to Arne
C. Wiprud, Department of Justice transportation
lawyer, who has been arguing unofficially that
international aviation rights could not be granted
: b.}' exedutive agreements under U. S. aviation law.

ELECTION SIDESHOWS
l Only one thing can be said for exagger
‘ated, vituperative political campaigning
'lt stirs up partisan excitement and helyp:
get out the vote. And this technique of the
|sideshowbarker isso successful that evan
!in time of crisis like the .present, when
sober thought is a prime necessity, it is
'employed as freely as ever, :
We had a dose of it in our last presi
’dential campaign. And now England is
getting some of the same. With the end
of the European war and the imminent
elections, the name-calling has broken out
like a family row that explodes as scon
as the guests leave.
As usual, both sides claim all the vir
tues, and warn of their opponent’s
treachery. But this time the feeling is
perhaps even sharper because of the
Labor Party’'s plan of modified stale
socialism.
Mr. Churchill warns that socialism won't
brook criticism, aiid that some sort of Ges
tapo will appear in the United Kingdom
if Labor triumphs. Mr. Attlee, Labo¢'s
leader, holds the Tories responsible for
child labor ang sweat shops, unemploy
ment, and a badly houed, fed, and cioih
ed nation, in presenting his case for col
lectivism. :
All this is the same old assortment of
melodramatic half truths. And it reminds
us again that we're still waiting for some
politician, American, British or otherwisev
to make ‘tl.speech in the following vein:
No potitical system in itself can guar
antee you all the good things in life. And
no economic system is so perfact that it
can run itself. '
State socialism has been a great thing
in Sweden, bringing down prices, break
ing up monopolies, and still letting pri
vate business live. Nationalized ,industry
was tried once in the United States when
the government tried to run the railroads
during the first World War, anq made a
sorry, expensive, confused mess of it. It
all depends on the men who operate the
system. :
The machinery of state socialism can’t
guarantee low taxes, high living stand
ards and a bath tub in every home. Neith
er can the ,machinery of a capitalistic
democracy. State socialism in itself can't
legislate away depressions, greed, corrupt
tion and incompetence. A capitalistic de
mocracy can't legislate permanent pres
perity into being.
- The best thing a system of government
can do is to leave a people free to choose
the best men for the job of running that
government, and free to change them if
they fail. That means finding men of in
tegrity and wisdom who don’t thing that
access to consumer goods provides al] the
answers, and who believe a nation’s criti
cal concern for its ethical principles is
more important than two cars in every
garage.
And that means the slow task of broad
ening and improving a people’s education
and level of intelligence until it can de
velop and recognize such men. It is a dis
ficult and unspectacular task, but one that
is highly necessary and richly rewarding

I;mr! dangerous to trespassers.
! One dog, in particular we
remember, was owned .bhy
Clerk Crawford, of the Su
perior and County courts,
when he was o little shaver in
short pants,
‘ His father, Mr. John R. Craw
lfnrd, operated a large general
Imcrehandise store and wagon
vard over in Barberville. Elmer
Ispcnt a greater portion of his
[time as a companion of a la-ge
brcwn haired bull dog. When his
!f:-.‘.her was engaged in the store,
Eimer spent much of his time
!chusing stray dogs with his big
]bul! dog, much to the uneasiness
of those who happened to be
passing the store. He prized his
dog above price and treasured it
as one of his most vaiuable pes
sessions, believing that his dog
could whip any dog in the world.
However, one hot day in
July sorrow came to Elmer.
His prize bull dog proved a
great disappointment to him
in his fighting qualities
which had been of the real
bull qualities.
Looking down the Danielsville
road, Elmer spied an old hound
dog, gaunt and with a folosn
‘appearance trotling along the
‘highway. This was good meat
for his bull dog, thought Elmer,
so he drove the hound into the
wagon yard and then tuned h:s
bul] dog loose cn the unprotect
ed hound. The poor hound began
running around the lot. Finally
Leing pressed to close quarters
by the bull dog, he backed himt
self in a corner and whenever
the bull dog would make a luage
at bim, the hound would snan
lim on ‘he nose. It became so
painful that the bull dog gave
up in despair and left the wagon
vard.
For Elmer, the backdown
» of his pet and prize bull dog
was a great disappoinment.
With a bleeding nose and
scarred face, the bull dog
took to the woods.
Thic was too much for Elmer.
To think and to see with his own
eyes a complete victory for the
cld hound. But appreciating a
good fighter, Elmer .decided to
give away the bull dog and keep
the hound. From that day on, he
was a constant companion of the
bound” which turned out to he a!
fine rubbit dog and every day,
out Bavberville road, in the
weods, could be seen Elmer gnd
kis newly made” :friend, the
heound, chasing rabbits. That is
the only case we have ever
known when 3 bull dog gave up a
fight to any other breed of dogs,
Fut the snapping wag too much
for him.
