A NEWSPAPER 18 A CITIZEN OF ITS COMMUNITY IF WE GET INTO IT There have been a great many guesses at the extent to which government would con trol business and industry in case the United States became involved in war. Most ot these have been based on proposed bills like thn May Bill which have been placed before Congress. They may also be based on the experience of the countries already involved in the war in Europe. But there is a further barfs for this sort of prediction, and one that is often forgotten today. That is the experience of the United States itself with centralized control during the World War. A council of national defense had been ret up. in Washington months before the United States entered the war, in fact, dur ing the summer of 1916. This council had the broad lines of economic coordination laid out long before the war came. Within two months after the United States entered the war, co-ordination began in earnest with the setting up of the War In dustries Board. This agency acted as pur chasing agent for the army and navy and ss a procurement staff for whatever was needed to carry on the war. It also had broad powers over the production and move ment of commodities, such as to insure that the fighting forces would have what they needed at all times. Ask any business man over 60 years old what happened to him in 1918 if he wanted steel for a new plant in those days, and whether he got it unless he could show the War Industries Board the necessity for it. A shipping board was set up to buy, build, and operate the ships which were to constitute the "bridge of ships to France," and the Emergency Fleet Corporation deci ded what ships were to go where, carrying .what. ' . ! The Food Administration came along in August, 1917, to promote conservation, co ordinate purchases, and control movement . of foodstuffs. Of course the Committee on ' Public Information had already placed its Informal but effective control over news papers, movies, and books. h The Fuel Administration soon fixed the fcrices of coal and other fuel, and decided who should get how much. In the spring of . 1918 the Railroad Administration took over the railroads. They narrowly escaped re maining permanently under government ' control after the war. I Thus on a basis of past experience, and without resorting to future guesswork, we knew that our own country was pretty close to totalitarian duping the period of the World War. Any new war would start where the last one left off. This demonstrates the unpalatable truth that countries which fight totalitarianism must first become totalitarian themselves. IRONY IN KENSINGTON The original Wright airplane rests quiet ly, but not securely, in the Kensington Mu seum in England. Certain people interested tn the aviation industry are worried lest it be destroyed in an air raid. That would certainly be a touch of irony to make the gods themselves laugh. The . crude little box-kite in which the Wright brothers lifted themselves off the dunes at Kill Devil Hill, North Carolina, only 36 years ego has already spawned monstrous prog eny. The Wright plane went to England lifter a dispute between the inventors and the Smithsonian Institution in Washington. There have been many attempts to bring it back. Now it is in real danger of being lost, along with the lives of hundreds of thou sands of Englishmen. The brain of man, .which, with daring and almost godlike in spiration, conceived the gift of flight, has faled to use the gift to any better purpose than to threaten with destruction not only man himself, but even the frail kite that is a monument to that daring. Success of the Hitler-Stalin agreements Indicates that nazi-ism and communism are merely different labels for the same brand of poison. Of course, that's what Congress man Dies has been trying to tell us all along. y It Is not difficult to understand the con fusion among the uninitiated as to the differ ence between radio and rodeo, for each has Its own brand of cowboys, the one singing, the) other bucking. It is about this time of year that the June bride finds the cooing stops and the billing begins. WASHINGTON LETTER By JOHN W. KELLY WASHINGTON, D. C Oct. 21. Affidavit of a former resident of Oregon is causing officials of the state department to scratch their heads and may throw some light on the failure of the British government to join the department with more ac tive co-operation than heretofore evinced, ip the investigation of the so-called submarine sinking of the Athenia. The state department is seeking the facts of that disaster because American lives were Gus Anderson, for several years a resident of Salem, Ore., and student of the Willamette Univer aity, is author of the affidavit. Anderson says the Athenia "may have been" attacked by a submarine, but no one saw a U-boat despite statements of ex. cited survivors. The Athenia was a British passenger liner which departed from England with a passenger list of Americans. Canadians and Europeans, a few hours before war was declared. Two hundred miles off the Irish coast there was an explosion and the Athenia was wounded, the first casualty in the war. Germans have denied sinking the ship; suggested it may have hit a British mine, or was purposely at tacked by a British submersible to bring the U. S. into the war. According to Anderson, the Athenia carried arms. He says he saw them in the hold and the Athenia was to be equipped as a commerce raider after it reached Halifax. This statement is sensa tional because all other reports declared the Athenia was wantonly attacked when it was leaving the war zone with refugees and was not carrying am munition. Anderson sticks to his story, insists that with his own eyes he saw the guns and he had the run of the ship, on which he had made many crossings and knew officers and crew members in timately. The former Willamette University student as serts that when the Athenia had its explosion and, the passengers were in lifeboats, a British liner, practically empty, was only about 40 miles away and did not come to the rescue. A Swedish steamer hearing the SOS from the Athenia, although afraid of being subbed, rushed to the stricken vessel and picked up Anderson among others. Instead of sinking immediately, the Athenia rode high in the water for hours, with pumps work ing and lights lit. British destroyers came along later and shot it to the bottom, after the captain removed the safe and his papers. Anderson's affi davit, which the state department is studying so carefully, recounts his personal experiences and observations. He finally landed in the United States on the City of Flint, on which he worked in the galley 17 hours a day. Since leaving Salem, Anderson has conducted world-tours, and been an independent motion pic ture operator, taking films in China, Russia, the war in Spain and getting around generally. Anderson's entire life has been investigated by the state department, no difficult task because of the file of his passports over a period of almost 20 years. He was given a cross examination and while his statement checked with other information, his assertion that the Athenia carried arms caused eyebrows to lift. State department has wondered for a month at the apparent indifference of the Brit ish in probing the sinking of the Athenia. Possibly Gus Anderson has furnished the clue. Sub-rosa, house members are planning an In vestigation of the navy and a general shake-up. Certain congressmen suspect there is incompetency which amounts to a scandal. President Roosevelt, a former assistant secretary of the navy, is aware of the blunders being perpetrated, and is expected to appoint a secretary of the navy when congress meets in regular session. At present Charles Edi son (son of the famed inventor, Thomas A.), is act ing secretary, but his health is impaired. Mr. Roosevelt appointed the late Claude Swanson sec retary in 1933, but Swanson was a sick man until his death and was never in active charge. Recent rumor is that Col. Frank Knox, repub lican candidate for vice-president in 1036, may be offered the job, because Knox, and his Chicago newspaper, is supporting Mr. Roosevelt's plan to repeal the embargo. There Is no foundation for the rumor, but it persists. With no civil head, the navy has been run for years by gold-braided admirals (most of them ashore and only a few on sea duty). With a great program for expanding the navy, congressmen are wondering which two dozen new destroyers are so poorly designed that they may turn turtle with all on board. Look for the first move by the house naval af fairs committee, many of whom visited Tongue Point and naval bases on Puget Sound last Sep tember before the president called the special session. AN EDITORIAL ON HEALTH By DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor, Journal of the American Medical Associa tion, and of Hygcia, the Health Magazine The week of October 22 to 29 has been pro claimed National Hearing Week by the president. It is a period during which physicians and others interested in the cause of hard of hearing will devote themselves to emphasizing the prevalence of deafness and the need of discovering Impairment of hearing In children as soon as possible. The problem of educating and rehabilitatins! those who have already become hard of hearing will be given special attention. Some can be helped by modern technic in lip reading and others by using a suitable hearing device. Experts estimate that there are from six to ten million people in the United States afflicted with hardness of hearing. They may be divided, as Dr. Gordon Berry points out, into two groups: those that are deaf, which means that they may have suffered a marked hearing Impairment early In life before they learned to talk, and those who developed Impairment of hearing as they grew older. It Is- Important to find out as soon as possible whether or not a baby can hear. Frequently the nurse Is the first to discover the fact that the child has impaired hearing. A child that does not hear well uses Its eyes more than one that does. He finds no enjoyment In the use of a rattle or in other kinds of noise-making devices, and will not respond to a spoken word unless there is movement associated with the speaVing. There are three important causes of hardness of hearing In infancy. In the case of hereditv the child is born deaf. There Is apparently a tendency in rertain families for the Inheritance of a consti tutional structure which causes loss of hearing. Another cause Is the development of any severe toxic disease or of anv type of serious poisoning which may paralyze the nerve of hearing. Such paralysis may be associated with meningitis, scar, let fever, mumps, syphilis, or occasionally with measles, influenza, or diphtheria. Excessive doses of quinine, particularly In the case of a sensitive person may cause some loss of hearing. A sudden, extremely loud noise or a vio lent blow on the ear mav produce degenerative changes which may result in deafness. In addition to the infections which may dam age the nerves of hearing, there is the possibility of suppuration which destroys the small bones in the middle ear. Onre the nervi which enables us to hear is destroyed or seriously damaged by an illness or poisoning, recovery of hearing Is un likely. The most a specialist can do to preserve the amount of hearing that Is left is to utilize the struc tures that are still intact and to relieve the body of nasal obstructions and ether minor Infections which may constitute an additional load for the damaged tissue to carry.
