Indictment of War Effort
Contrary to ordinary political procedure
which calls Jor a series of deliberate steps pre
ceding definite action. President Roosevelt sud
denly! announced that he was going to have a
one-man war production executive and that
Donald M. Nelson was the man. The president
didn't even prepare a formal order to that ef
fect; he let Nelson write it and admonished him
to "make it good" to draft his own powers in
such manner that they would in any eventuality
; prove adequate.
, It would be rather inaccurate to say that this
action came "out of a clear sky." Anyone taking
the trouble might have observed a few clouds
overhead. One, as we have mentioned hereto
fore, was the impending demand ; by Wendell
Willkie. Certainly another was the impending
Truman committee report to the senate. The
president forestalled both. Willkie had to
change his speech but the Truman committee
went ahead and submitted its report.
The committee included ten democrats, most
but not all of them staunch new dealers: Tru
man, Connally, Mead, Wallgren, Hatch, Herring
and Kilgore; and three republicans, Ball, Brew
ster and Bridges.
The committee's report is a document of some
140 printed pages. When it was submitted, J
naturally the reporters even for the large
metropolitan papers could only summarize its
conclusions; could not even sample the definite
findings other than a few production statistics
upon which these ' conclusions were based.
Copies of the report itself have not reached the
west coast. We are still in the dark as to how
conclusively and accurately the detailed find
ings support the conclusions.
In referring to this report as a "cloud" we
spoke advisedly. It is an indictment of the war
production effort to date an indictment of the
total results, qualitative and quantitative, plus
special indictments of virtually every agency
ando factor involved; the war department, the
navy department, OPM and particularly its
"dollar-a-year" men, industrial management,
lflhnr.
In a way the report is a "dead horse" because
the principal fault, lack of authoritative leader
ship, has been corrected. In another sense it
should serve as a chart for the reorganization
steps which the newly-designated authoritative
icauci is initialing. iu i meic io iiui auuiuei
tide to the picture. Regretfully we need to
recognize that this report indicts not only the
war production effort's lack of adequate or
ganization and its failure to achieve maximum
results; it indicts also the motives of persons
and groups concerned.
. As nearly as can be ascertained from the
sketchy summaries available sketchy even
though one at our elbow runs to more than
three columns of solid type condemnation was
dealt out with a, degree of impartiality. Cer
tainly capital and labor both; came in for their
share. As for that, in fairness it should be noted
that the committee, on the job for many months,
got most of its material while the nation was
merely the "arsenal of democracy" and not yet
an actual belligerent. Some recreant groups
have since repented and any which have not
are, we trust, in such position that Donald Nel
son will be able to spank them. After all, man
agement and labor are expected, in peacetime,
to be selfish. '
i'We are more concerned about the accusations
of actual graft and venality. Inevitably they in-
volve persons within government, whose loyal
ty is owed to the public. Whether the report
"names names" and recites definite acts, is a
question we intend to explore further. These
are facts that must be laid bare. Appropriate
action must follow, without regard to personali
ty or rank.
How Many Freedoms?
; President Roosevelt's reference to the "four
freedoms" last summer was in our opinion too
opportunistic to rank as an historic declaration
especially since one was "freedom of the
seas" which never has meaning in peacetime,
whereas there was that widely-noted omission
of "freedom of religion.
i Yet the phrase "four freedoms" has survived
long enough to serve as a peg on which some
what comparable ideas may be hung. Chancel
lor F. M. Hunter mentioned it and added a
couple more in his thoughtful address at the
chamber of commerce here this week; freedom
to share in the world's resources and freedom
against discrimination.
The national resources and planning bbard,
looking at domestic post-war problems, lists on
the other hand "nine freedoms" which must be
kept in mind as objectives: The right to work;
the right to fair play; the right to adequate food,
clothing, shelter and medical care; the right to
security against old age, dependency, sickness,
Injury and unemployment; the rightto live in
a system of free enterprise; the right to come
and go, to speak or be silent, without spying
by political police; the right to equality before
the law; the right to education; the right to
rest and enjoy life, i
, i It's a good list though we're still dubious
about the successful coexistence of social securi
ty and free enterprise. But of course if one
sets his mina to we serious contemplation -of,
desirable freedoms, a much more-extended list,
all desirable, may, be compiled. One, rather

j "Keep your shirt on" was the eye-catching
caption over a brief item in the latest issue of
"Netherlands News." Perusal of the item re
vealed that the advice, though worded with
intent to command attention in America
through use of the vernacular, was meant liter
ally. A Hollander who visited department
store in quest of a shirt found none to his taste,
but before he left, one of the clerks tried to buy
the shirt he had on. Later on in a railway sta
tion waiting room a stranger offered to pay
200 guilders for the leather jacket which had
cost the native 45 guilders back in 1937. Items,
ef clothing must be as precious in The Nether
lands as tires are here. 1 - - -

Auto Salesmen's Plight
"What America needs is to be made more
conscious of the war," remarks our esteemed
afternoon contemporary, and adds: "Nothing
can convince us more effectively than a stiff
blow in the pocketbook." If the editor is in
search of war-conscious folk he might hunt up
a couple of automobile salesmen and if he
doesn't know where to find them, he might try
the employment office.
Another Oregon editor has observed, ap
propriately even though it sounds a bit hard
hearted, that automobile salesmen, having no
cars to sell, are now facing the necessity of sell
ing themselves to new employers. They are
equipped for that initial job, whether or not
they are suited to the employment they seek;
and the chances are that most of them will
alight on their feet in short order.
Auto salesmen are among the first serious
casualties of war's economic upheaval. About
all we can offer them is sympathy and best
wishes for early recovery. Think of it an en
tire occupation wiped out in one sweeping gov
ernmental order! Almost the only parallel we
can thing of is one we hesitate to mention
bootleggers, when repeal went into effect.

(Distributed by King Feature Syndicate. Inc. Repro
duction in whole or in part strictly prohibited.)
WASHINGTON, Jan. 20 There is grumbling
because Donald Nelson has no act of congress upon
which to stand and do the biggest job of the war
generalissimo of production on the home front.
The related facts of the ap
pointment are these:
Mr. Roosevelt promised to let
Mr. Nelson write his own White
House law. The president kept
that promise. The executive
order was written by Mr. Nel
son and his OPM attorney, Mil
ton Katz, formerly with the se
curities and exchange commis
sion and justice department
Friends told Nelson that he
had better make it good, or
some day he might wish he
i i . . , - .
Pan MaQoa naa. mr. nooseveu signea n
without changing a word.
No one needs a law around this town ordinarily
if Mr. Roosevelt is for him. This order gives Nelson
the president's firm backing to direct the OPM,
army and navy procurement and even Jesse Jones
(first time the commerce secretary ever let any
one get authority to tell him what to do.)
The difference between this and the old order
is clearly presented on the point of the supply pri
orities and allocations board. Formerly the board
made decisions and Nelson was only the executive
officer designated to carry out the devisions. Now
Nelson will act with "the advice and assistance"
(but not the consent) of the board. He has a free
directing hand.
Mr. Roosevelt, of course, still holds loose reins.
Nelson is to be his agent. The president may pre
scribe "added duties" for Nelson. Yet the very
nature of the order (plus Nelson's independent per
sonality) makes it clear FDR is handing the whole
matter over to Nelson with only a few inconse
quential legal strings attached.
This, then, is a genuine reorganization, the first
one so far. It is a reorganization to end all re
organizations on our most important battle line in
the factories. Mr. Roosevelt jumped to it only
24 hours ahead of the bayonet in the Truman
committee report, exposing gross deficiencies of
the old setup.
If another reorganization ever becomes neces
sary, the continuing Truman committee will no
doubt take hold of it for congress.
But there is no reason for expecting that Nelson
has a terrific will to win. He is not a fuddy-duddy
kow-tower to the great invisible god of drag be
hind all swivel chairs in Washington the influence
of connections in the new deal family, the august
aloofness of army and navy which no civilian has
ever penetrated, "who" went to college with
"whom," etc.
How far the president went in this respect is
disclosed in his designation of William Knudsen
as a lieutenant general. FDR had to reach for a
lot of stars for that lofty title, but it was necessary
so Knudsen could outrank some of the generals
of the war department and be able to overrule
them.
Mr. Roosevelt could only have been thinking
of army ordnance (procurement and munitions
boards) upon whom criticism has long been cen
tered. Knudsen is supposed to be sent into the
field, right into the production plants, where his
genius for mass production can best be used. Yet
it is possible he or Nelson will direct some long
needed administrative changes such as requiring
one officer of ordnance to be responsible for each
project, rather than allowing the whole bureau
to be responsible for everything.
Centralization of authority, now at long last ac
cepted at the top, may yet be made the dominant
theme of our war effort, all the way down the line.
Nelson himself certainly knows he is in tat-
the rap, the whole rap and nothing but" the rap
for victory or defeat When friends congratulated
him, he said he really deserved their commisera
tions, v- " ij- . -
His first job is to cut through what Sorokin might
call the "quantitative colossalism" of the old regime
and get himself an efficient setup. He probably will
put bis own procurement experts Into the war and
navy alongside present officers to show, them how
to move fast if . v. , .
OPM will no doubt decline and evolve into a
Nelson staff, and a comfortable 'bench for all the
industrialists and labor leaders not otherwise oc
cupied. -Priorities will probably, go into the army
navy munitions board. A Nelson board may be
appointed to advise him on plant conversion. Some
one has suggested Sidney Hillman should be made
an admiral (screams of anguish from the navy de
partment) jv ,,:-: ;.-:
, Initial tough knot for Nelson, will be the situation
in the motors industry. Most government authori
ties are ready to shoot motor industrialists at sun
rise f or auggestinj private car production be car
; ried beyond January. They ay auto shops are still
working only half time half time on a front far
more vital to victory than the Philippines, Singa
pore vnd Libya combined.

Celebrate 1943 as a 1-21-42
centennial year, but do
not commemorate in doing
it a plain, barefaced lie:
I
(Continuing from yesterday:)
The first great covered wagon
immigration came to the Ore
gon country in 1843, and, more
over, it brought, as one of its
leaders, and as one of the ablest
and most far seeing statesman of
the early comers to this mother
of states, Oregon, Jesse; Apple
gate. He and his family, and his two
brothers, Charles and Lindsay,
and their families, spent their
first winter in Oregon at the
then abandoned Lee Mission, 10
miles by water below the site of
Salem.
S
The next year (1844) they
moved across the river into whalf
was Yamhill county, then ex
tending from the mouth of the
Yamhill river on a line west to
the Pacific ocean and South to
the Mexican (California) line.
At the election of 1845 Jesse Ap
plegate was chosen one of the
two members from ; Yamhill
county of the unicameral council
or legislature of the Provisional
Government, of 13 members.
The first legislature (legisla
tive committee) of the Provi
sional Government Of eight
members had been elected the
second Tuesday in May, 1844,
and it had as a member Peter H.
Burnett of the 1843 immigra
tion, who was a lawyer and
statesman; became the first gov
ernor of California; was largely
instrumental in breaking Cali
fornia into the Union.
S S
Burnett, in that legislature,
led a movement to straighten
out a lot of things In the Provi
sional Government; that body
fixed the capital at Oregon City
(then called Willamette Falls);
changed the opening date of the
legislature (legislative com
mittee) to the fourth Tuesday in
June; made a new district
(county), that of Clatsop; lim
ited the north line of the juris
diction of the Provisional Gov
ernment to the south line of the
Columbia river; changed mar
riage law to allow males of 16
and. females of 12 to marry, with
consent of parents; passed a law
prohibiting sale of intoxicants;
also prohibiting colored men or
women or mulattoes to reside in
Oregon (never enforced); but
stood as law many years.
Also passed a law to build a
jail at Oregon City with the
money of Ewing Young; still
without an heir to claim it.
Granted several men franchises
to operate ferries. There was a
second session of the 1844 leg
islature, December 16 to 24.
There was a good deal of poli
tics, mostly concerning the ha
treds against the British gov
ernment, then represented by
the Hudson's Bay Company.

Your Federal Income Tax
PERSONAL EXEMPTIONS
AND CREDIT FOR
DEPENDENTS
Domestic relations enter into
the making of an income tax
return. This shows itself in the
matter of personal exemptions.
Too many taxpayers ' do not
understand who is legally the
head of a family, or what is a
dependent As a consequence,
they overpay the government
by not claiming their proper
exemptions and credits. Of
course, the audit of their re
turns discloses most of these
errors, but not all of them, that
are due to negligence or lack of
1 understanding of the income
tax law and regulations.
Care is taken m-drafting the
instructions for filling out the
forms to make them simple and
easily understood. .The taxpayer
should study these instructions
before inaking out his or her
" return. . .
The head of a family, as de
fined by the income tax regu
lations, is an individual who
actually supports and nainttnf
in one household one j or more
, Individuals who are closely con
nected to him by blood rela-
! tionship, relationship . by mar-
; riage or by adoption, and whose
right to exercise family control
1 and provide for these depend
ent Individuals is based upon
some moral or legal obligation.
: As such, he or she is entitled to
personal exemption of $1500.
A credit of $400 i allowed
for each dependent A depend
ent Is one under 18 years of
age, or one who is physically
or mentally defective and in
capable of self-support He need
not live with nor be related to
the taxpayer.
If husband and wife contrib
ute to the support of a depend
ent the $400 credit may be tak
en by the one contributing the
chief support, and it may not
be divided between them. Like
wise, if two members of a fam
ily 'contribute to the support of
a dependent, the one who con-
tributes more 'than one-half of
the support may claim the credit
Both the personal exemption
and-the credit for dependents
must be. prorated when the sta
tus of the taxpayer changed
during the year, except where
the taxpayer is eligible and
elects to determine his tax at
the optional rates with the use
of the simplified Form 1040A.
x If a. taxpayer occupies . the
status of the head of family
solely by reason, of the exist
ence of one or more dependents
for whom he would otherwise -be
entitled to the credit of -$400,
"the credit of $400 in re-
- sped of .one such dependent Is -not
allowable. For example a
widower who occupies the sta
tus of a head of a family solely
by reason of the' fact that he
1 is maintaining a home for two
dependent children under It
- years of age is entitled to the
credit of $400 allowed for one
: such uependent, and the credit
for the other dependent is not
. allowable. - - -r-
Government legislature. It met
in Oregon City June 24, at the
house of John E. Long, but
moved to the room of the Mult
nomah circulating library, there."
As heretofore indicated, Jesse
Applegate was foremost as a
member. He framed the oath of
office, in these words:
"I do solemnly swear that I
will support the organic laws of
the Provisional Government of
Oregon, so far as they are con
sistent with my duties as a citi
zen of the United States or a
subject of Great Britain." (Note
later the wisdom of that oath.)
Jesse Applegate I held thlt,
since all parts of the "constitu
tion'' and "laws" of the Oregon
Provisional Government unless
they were those passed by the
1844 legislative committee (leg
islature), 'had been passed by
hand ballot, they were not ac
corded to the American system
of election by secret ballot at the
polls, and therefore not valid.
He held that there must be an
adjournment of the 1845 legisla
ture, so that all could be sub
mitted to the people at polling
places; all that had gone before
and that were to be submitted
by the 1845 legislature, including
a law to provide for a single
governor in place of the execu
tive committee of threer with a
candidate for that office.
S S
So an adjournment was taken,
on July 5 to August 5, in order
to allow the returns of the elec
tion of July 26 to be Canvassed.
There being no printing press
then in Oregon, manuscript cop
ies of each proposition were
made for every precinct or poll
ing place, to be read three times
to the voters. Bancroft says:
"The majority in favor of
adopting the organic laws as
amended and the schedule of of
ficers as elected the previous
June, amounted to over 200.
(The vote was 255 to 22, a ma
jority of 233 in the affirmative.)
V .
After the little unicameral
legislature of 13 members of the
1845 legislature resumed its ses
sions, August 5, the question of
apportionment came up, especi
ally related to the country north
of the Columbia rivr.
This was done by proposing
to set off the district (thereafter
to be called county) of Vancou
ver, which embraced all of the
country north of the Columbia
river, clear to fiftyifour degrees
and forty minutes north latitude;
the 54-40 fighting term.

but the pilot maneuvered to a

the wing, then to the ground,
and began examining his mo

"Wizard!" he exclaimed; after
a moment "Absolutely wizard!.
While the Royal Air Force ex

Virginia rather than England as

One side of his face was spat

his enthusiasm was the sleek,

Eh, old tin can? Now one more

His tall, slender body was
bent over and his head was
practically in the motor. "There

the job that he did not see a
