The release . of Sir Oswald
Mosely, British disciple of Hitler,
from prison because of his ill
health stirred deep resentment
among the ' working classes , of
England who muttered "If Mose
ly must die, let him die on the
gallows! w h I c h reveals some
thing of the depth of feeling in
Great Britain against the nazi
ideology. The AP report in the
papers of. Monday concluded in
this manner:
The attitude of the man in the
street was reflected in the utter
ance of a bus passenger, 'who was
heard to declare: 'I suppose they
will be releasing Hess next
I'm not going to discuss Mosely
or - Hess, but the "man in the
street" who uses the personal
pronoun "they" with reference to
government. Such usage is not
uncommon in this country. 1 You
hear frequently - over the state,
when the legislature is meeting:
. What are THEY going to do at
Salem?" Or if someone is irked
by regulations, he uses the third
. person plural ' to refer to." the
powers that-fce: "See what THEY
re doing to us now."
The use of THEY with refer
ence to " government indicates a
breach between the citizen " and
his government. It is a sort of
unconscious confession of political
disfranchisement. Gover nrneht,
whether local state or national is
regarded as distant and unrelated.
Theindividual feels impotent in
the face of what THEY are doing.
True, he may vote on election day,
but no matter how he votes THEY
carry on government, and he as a
. citizen can only obey and pay
taxes. ..
The reference that should be
made is to MY government or
OUR government. That connotes
a very different feeling. It indi
cates proprietorship, and in a
popular form of government each
citizen should feel a sense of pos
session as far as his government
is concerned. So I do not like to
hear government whether, at the
courthouse, the city hall, the state
r national capital referred to as
THEY. We may not like what
OUR government does; but since
we have voted to put it in office,
it is OUR (Continued on editorial

German Drives
At Korostyshev,
Kiev Halted
By JAMES M. LONG
LONDON, Tuesday, Nov.
23 (AP) Red array troops
buttressed by fleets of tanks
smashed powerful, new nazi
attacks near Korostyshev,
halting- a savage counter-offensive
toward Kiev, wreck
ins 60 enemy tanks and carpeting-
the battlefield with
German dead, Moscow announced
early1 today.
Even as the Germans lunged
desperately on this narrow sec
tor 20 miles east of Zhitomir, oth
er soviet armies on the distant
flanks slashed deeper into the
Dnieper bend to the southeast, and
in the Rechitsa area to the north,
killing 2500 nazis, said the broad
cast communique recorded by the
soviet monitor. ,
These drives apparently were
intended to relieve pressure on the
Kiev, sector as well as to advance
the general offensive toward the
borders of Rumania and pre-war
Poland. ; ; , ;
Another 600 Germans fell in bat
tle 10 miles north of Zhitomir,
the war bulletin declared, as Field
Marshal Gen. Fritz von Mannstein
struck out in a new direction in
the Chernyakov area, possibly
aiming at Korosten. Two attacks
were! repulsed near Chenyakhov.

Gen. Nikolai Vatutin's heavy ar

railway station along the lower
Pripet river, taking If more
towns west of Rechitsa, " and
storming eight centers of re
sistance north of Gomel.
The Russian-reference to fight
ing in the Chernyakhov sector sug
gested that Von Mannstein, blunt
ed in the direction of Kiev, has
turned north toward Korosten, but
even - there is finding the going
hard.
. The second day of Russian suc
cesses in the push beyond Krem
enchug reflected a broadening of
the whole offensive front down the
Dnieper bend, where the nazis' es

pinched to some 40 miles.
' Summing up Sunday's fighting,
the soviet communique said the
Germans had lost 190 tanks dis

downed.

Fight to Board

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22-tfP)
The supreme court ruled today that
under federal law the settlement
of jurisdictional disputes between
railroad unions Is up to the na
tional (railway) mediation board
or the unions themselves, not the
courts.- ' ' -.; v".'"'
In three cases involving the Is
sue, the court declared in opin
ions by Justice Douglas that while
congress had provided specifically
for judicial review In certain
types of railroad disputes, it had
not given the solution of jurisdic
tional controversies to the courts.
The vote was --seven to two in
two with Justices Roberts
and Reed dissenting, and four to
three in the third case, with Just
ices Reed," Roberts and J ackson
dissenting and Justices Black and
Rutledge participating.
The conclusion is irresistible
that congress carved out of the
field "of concilation, mediation and
arbitration only the select list of
problems ; which it was ready to
place , in the adjudicatory chan
nel," the court said.. "All else it
left to those voluntary processes
whose use congress had long' en
