HELP ASKED
FOR POSTWAR
L
WASHINGTON, Aug. 14 (IP)
Senator Mitchell (D-Wash.) ask
ed War Mobilization Director
John W. Snyder today to help
expedite return of the Pacific
Northwest lumber industry to
peacetime production.
Ho reauested that the army
release heavy-duty tractors and
trains earmarked tor military
use, that the army and navy
needs be re-assessed to permit
the release of lumber for urgent
civilian demands, and that the
war manpower commission state
. itwar policy regarding
: ..i ment in sawmills and
ir'i ;.' operations.
Probltm Acute
vhe reconversion and de
unionization problems oi the Pa
cific Northwest are going to be
especially acute because of the
heavy concentration ot war in
dustries in that area," Mitchell
Wrote. "The lumber industry
will need to work at full cauac
ity to supply deferred civilian
needs. This will afford employ
ment for returning veterans and
men from the war industry."
Mitchell also made public a
letter to Price Administrator
Chester Bowles suggesting that
the OPA delegate greater autn-
ority to its state and regional
offices.
He also urged that OPA adopt
"a more realistic policy which
exempts as many items as pos
sible." Vic and Jay, The

Peace Hopes Touch Off
Early Outbursts In Nation
By Tha Associated Press
Peace hopes soared to the cele
bration point today from the Far
Pacific to the Atlantic seaboard
as indications multiplied that
Japan's surrender was near.
It was a nerve-tingling climax
to long, suspenseful waiting
marked by premature celebra
tions last Friday, when the Jap
anese offered to quit if they
could keep their emperor, and
Sunday night, when a quickly
killed false surrender flash
moved on the wires of the United
Press. '
. Most war plant and other
workers punched the timeclock
as- usual today although 4200
foundry workers at the Ford
River'Rouge plant lefUtheir jobs
after an unidentified man blew
the factory whistles. Army and
navy inductions also continued
as on any other .day.
In contrast to the joyous out
bursts on Pacific islands, western
cities and some coast centers,
most of the nation waited quietly,
if not calmly, for a go-ahead
from Washington before cele
brating. '
. The first Tokyo report pro
duced impromptu parades in
New York's Times Square. Dark
ened windows lighted up, ticker
tape streamed down and crowds
of celebrants roared out patriotic
and martial songs.
Rejoicing soldiers and sailors
In San Francisco climbed to the
tops of trolley and cable cars
and clanged the car gongs as
the vehicles nudged their way
carefully through surging
throngs of peace-greeters.
Out on Guam, hard-fighting
marines took the reports of Jap
anese surrender skeptically,
commenting "it can't be all
over." Enlisted men generally
took the news without signs of
excitement. Sailors waiting in
line before a recreation hall fori
their beer rations said they
hoped peace would bring "extra
beer."
Natives at two Guam villages
planned celebrations.

trying to get n slnnt.on British
opinion mustn't forget thut tho
uub is the common, everyday
Englishman's club. Ha doesn't
go there Just to gut llkkvrca up
ulthough ho sometimes does Just
that, even as Americans do. The
pub is a great pluco to tulk
things over.)
These British cousins of ours
are no quitters. Whan they start

There's a bulldog quality to tho

ing, unqualifiedly.

no Intention of permitting them

In tho world of the future, tho
British aro overlooking no bets,
nnd their Far East bet is nil Im
portant ono. , y
On Friday morning (the day
after tho political end of the
world) the London pnpers gave
EQUAL PLAY to the Postdnm
terms to the Japs nnd the elec
tion news. Tho Times printed
an editorial about it right along
side its calm, tolerant, well-thought-out
essay on the star
tling, not to say revolutionary
verdict of the voting.
THERE is n lot of guessing
I en m n r t It lmiA m n h n
parent ly, In tho Stnte's) about the
on British foreign policy.
Here Is this rank outsider's
guess: In Its ESSENTIALS. Brit
ish foreign policy will be VERY
LITTLE AFFECTED.
British foreign policy (which,
unlike ours, is definitely tied up
With ihtt u.alfnra nt aunra t3t-iHel
subject) is something that goes
on nnd on, regardless of elections
and party changes.
IVJOTE thnt Churchill took Alt-
test of hot elections, ALONG
WITH HIM to Potsdam. It
wasn't just a Churchilllan gesture
ot sportsmanship. It went much
deeper than that. It went, in
fact, clear down to the roots of
the British system.
Remember that this Potsdam
conference, with its unbelievable
possibilities for good or evili be
gan while the verdict of the Brit
ish election was still held In
susoenslon. 'There was the In
evitable, unpalatnblc, rough
edged and hard to swallow con
tingency that Churchill's Con
servative party mlht be over-
tnrown and the Labor nnrtv
mieht triumph. In that event
BRITAIN (as It turns out to have
been) would be left In an ex
tremely awkward position, with
a new man coming into the con
ference right in its middle.
Somehow that daneerous situa
tion had to be circumvented to
whatever extent was possible.
SO Churchill took Attlee along,
so that, In the event of the
dreaded chnnee of power, Att'ee
would have been there on the
ffround. taking Dart In the de
liberations, familiar with the Ho.
cWons, EQUIPPED TO CARRY
ON for Britain.
IT was a fine thlna to do. But,
because It is FUNDAMENTAL
In the Brit'ih system, it must be
repented that it wasn't just a
spontaneous, snnrtsmanllkc ges
ture on Churchill's part.
Churchill is CAPABLE of (hit
kind of gesture, but he didn't do
it just as a personal move. He
was simplv doing what he knew
British public opinion called up
on him In the circumstances to
do. He was PROTECTING
BRITAIN and British prestige
