I The air force gets the headlines and most
pt the news stones these days, as it has through
tnost of the war. Planes of the United Nations
in numbers that fill the skies like a plague
bf locusts have provided an air umbrella for
he invading Jootsoldiers in Normandy and
have methodically knocked out enemy com
munications and troop concentrations behind
the lines. But a generous meed of praise is due
the warships of the navy. For they cleared
the sea and guarded the landing barges and
"supply boats. Minesweepers swept away en
emy mines; destroyers policed the waters; grim
old battleships came close inshore to shell en
emy strong points and silence enemy batteries.
It was naval gun power which afforded pro
tection to the men wading ashore from the
barges. It was far more effective than aerial
bombardment because it can be continued on
given targets. Thus when observers ashore ra
dioed back to the ship that an enemy battery
was holding up the advance, giving its location,
the ship's guns could be trained on the spot
and soon it would be blown to pieces. Com
mand of the seas meant not only control of
the waters so our invasion armada could cross
the channel; it meant also fire-cover for the
landing' elements for miles inland. The battle
ships knocked out the shore batteries of the
Germans and held at bay their counter attack
so our beachhead could be secured.
: "Used in this operation were older warships.
One for instance was the old dreadnaught
Warspite which fought in the Atlantic and off
Crete and then, limped across the Pacific for
repairs at Bremerton. Now it is back in the
fight throwing heavy slugs at the -enemy. The
USS Arkansas, Texas and . Nevada are old
ships dating from 1911 to 1914, but their guns,
12-inch on the Arkansas and 14-inch on the
other two, can still speak with authority. The
British ships Rodney and Nelson; with 16-inch
guns are veterans of the British navy and
battle-scarred from this war. These older ves
sels could do the job in the narrow waters of
the channel and if one or more should be hit
and sunk the loss would not be so great as with
the newer, speedier battleships.
At any rate, the surface ships have played a
vitally important part in the invasion of France,
just as they have in safeguarding the sea
lanes that are Great Britain's lifelines.
Night Club Tax
Congress has passed a bill with, a tacker
cutting the tax on night club bills, from 30 per
cent to 20 per cent.' The" claim wai offered thai'
the higher rate (a boost from the 10 per cent
of the old law) was putting the night clubs
out of business for lack of patronage. Though
General Somervell in his cry for more man
power in war industry had said: "If we have
to close the night clubs, let's lock them up,"'
congress did not seem to agree with the ne
cessity. Night clubs appear to come under the head
of "essential war industry"; essential to the
plush-bottomed .generals and captains, to 'the
plush-pursed industrialists, and to boobs from
the sticks.
Keep the swivel in your neck lubricated,
and don't freeze your gaze on Europe. Gen.
Mac Arthur and Admiral Nimitz may loosen a
big punch in the Pacific just by way of diver
sion. 7
Chairman Davis says that the war labor
board should be allowed to die a natural death
- at the end of the war. But here are John L.
Lewis and Sewell Avery trying to strangle it
to death before the war does end.
Interpreting
The War News
By KIRKE L. SIMPSON
Cooyrifitt 1944 by tha Associated Press
Just one week after their take off from Britain
by air and sea, allied forces were within sight
of their first prime second-front objective, cap-'
ture of the Cherbourg peninsula. "
They had out-guessed and out-fought the nazi
on ground of his own choosing, long-prepared for
resistance to invasion. A 60-mile wide gap in bis
coastal defenses yawned. Through it , allied re
serves poured under blanket protection' in air and.
on the sea. The Cherbourg peninsula nazi bastion
was certainly doomed. Even the enemy hold on its
great Brittany neighbor, tipped by the fine port of
Brest was gravely threatened by an 'American
infantry breakthrough 20 miles deep in the center
of the .beachhead line to the gates of St Malo.
With fall of the Normandy foreland seemingly
imminent, giving the allies use of Cherbourg to
speed up movement of troops and heavy equip
ment to the continental battle fronts, the situation
of the German garrison in Brittany will be omin
ous. It may be the next Eisenhower objective,
backed by forward air bases just across St Malo
gulf in Normandy. Its capture would double allied
weather-proof communication facilities in France.
Failure of the foe to prevent landings in Nor
mandy or to seal the first beachheads off effective
ly with available reserves has already created -an
acute problem for the German' high command.
Neither itr local ' reserves nor the first waves of
tactical reinforcements have served to halt ..the
Anglo-American advance through Normandy: 'The
tone of official announcements from allied", great
headquarters indicates astonishment at the rela
tively poor, defensive showing of the foe up to date.
For there is a growing danger to the German
position in all northwestern .: France, from the
Seine to the Loire, to be seen in the now well con
solidated invasion dent Even Paris ' is menaced
with British forces on the allied left of line at en
circled Caen less than 100 miles from the French
eapitol. '" !' :-:;f'T-;H'
Sooner or later, due to nazi failure to repel the
allied landings in Normandy, ; a major decision
upon retreat in France to shorten defense lines
will be forced upon Berlin. The enemy is already
revealing the weaknesses of overextension in the
west as his. Russian front disclosed similar fatal
defects once the Soviet army was ready to open" Its
year lor. cflenrive all along the line.
Season and Bag Limits! ' V
; Fixing season ! and bag limits by the game
commission gives i local sportsmen's : groups a '
chance to majce recommendations on What rules
should be drawn up for hunting in their lo
calities. This year the Klamath-Lake sports
men succeeded in getting the commission to
cut out doe killing in their district. They have
steadily objected to the killing of doe there,
but for several years it has been permitted un- '
der restrictions. I ::. 1. ; 2'
On the other hand the Bend folk want to open
up antelope hunting in central Oregon, The
antelope have increased in numbers so fast
on the Hart mountain refuge that they art
ranging far to the north and west, and stock
men would like' to see their number dimin
ished "curtailed' might be the word, except
they are already bob-tailed.! ' i
The commission has a hard time appeasing
the fishermen and hunters whose ideas often
clash. There are many cracker-barrel experts'
on fish and game who have: all the answers.
As the sportsmen's groups extend and include
more : members there: ought to be better or
ganization of lay , opinion which wQl be of more
value to the commission and be of greater
benefit in conserving of wild life. ,

WASHINGTON, June 12 The unresolved
conflict between the four freedoms and radical
ideologies which isi apparent behind the confus
ing political news from abroad
is also conspicuous behind
much domestic news and in
terpretation. 1
I The leftist journals are cur
rently campaigning - for the
Beveridge - proposed "way of .
life" in Britain with the criti
cal demand that it also be pur
sued here. They think mat is
what the four freedoms mean,
assumption by the state of more
Paul Malloa j complete authority over the
lives of men economically, fixing their wages, their
employment, their security rather than encour
aging the individual to do it himself on his own
initiative. That is the kind of peace and post-war
planning they want 4 , s
But we have campaigned this war through to
- a point near victory on the basis of bringing lib-
- erty and democracy for the individual both here
and abroadJs their thinking now not as confused
and as far wrong as it was a few months ago when
they were campaigning for a quart of mflx day .
and labor-wage standards to be fixed throughout
the world? j a - ' " r '
What is libertyt What is democracy? What is
freedom of the individual? If we do not first de
cide that, how can there be anything but confu
sion about post-war' planning? :J
To me, an individual enslaved to a state econ
omically by taxation or otherwise, is no less a
slave than if controlled politically. In a. dictator
ship,' his life is no more free, than the conscience
and ability of the man who happens to.be run
ning the state at any; given time.
If he has a democratic form, he is still no more
free than by whatever degree his president and
congress are free' from domination, by minority
class groups and interests. In the religious sense,
he is not free if 1 he is dominated by any class .
group either. Domination by one religion or by .
atheism is equally far from any democratic ideo
logy. . I' I ' : j ;'.;;.,
The radicals see this, but this part of it only.
How can they expect anyone to believe domination '
brings economic freedom when they see so well
it does not bring1 religious freedom. They could
not consider the World politically free if it was
dominated by one world power, at least no one
else woulcL Oneness domination never yet has
achieved freedom or liberty or democracy in any
way. - i 1 " - : . ; l ,
What we would like to have is complete -freedom
for all peoples in all ways, economically, po
litically, religiously. - This always has proved too
idealistic a goal for. the world to achieve utterly,
but by whatever further progress we make in that
direction, the peaceCwill be successful. By what
ever measure we ! compromise it, the peace will
fail. ', i : -. ' s;
j We were drawn deeper into what measure of
collectivism we already had before this war only
1 to meet failures. The ideal was not voluntarily
1 espoused as the proper way of life. It was not
whatVe wanted. It was what we had to take, En- .
tering the war, we assumed the additional collec
tivism only for war.':
Our course in. that direction should be pursued
in the post-war peace only to 'whatever extent
it will bring true, justice to the individual; The
star of individual freedom should never be eclipsed -one
inch by collectivism as our i? aL -
Our success in this warwas jiot due to collec
tivism but to voluntary democratic cooperation by
all hands. To" whatever extent labor sacrificed -its
rights to strike,! it expects to get that , right
back, and so with all of us. i . : r " a I :
' Internationally we did not win by collectivism
either, but by truly democratic cooperation. One -nation
did not dominate the military decisions of
- how. to proceed with the fighting. This democratic .
way is working welt against a nation which prac
ticed collectivism and preached subservience of
the individual to the state.
, These are rudiments of simple. common sense
4 for peace. If we wish to dispel confusion and plan
our way, we must first define our words and un
derstand our goals. :We must decide that, inter
nationally or domestically, the star of real lib-
s erty . must, be maintained as indispensable. . .
-. - We must abhor collectivism as an Ideal- and
coimromIse with it reluctantly: and temporarily
only to the extent truly necessary to bring Jus- ;
tice to the individual. . . - j-
' We must abhor oneness domination, totalitarian-
1 ism,'? dictatorship, and remember always that an'
individual . enslaved to the . state by any means -whatever
will have- no more liberty and demo
cracy, than the fluctuating goodness and justice
. of that controlling force. ; : ' -: 1
Men do not take; well that kind of power either
as heads of worlds or any of the subdivisions of
v society Including nations, i states, counties, cities,
or even labor unions." .
