SM 133 So. 8th Phone 5188 EDITORIALS ON NEWS (Continued tram Page One) Europe in the Dark Ages follow ing the decay and full of the Roman Empire. YOU never can tell. Out of the mess that today is Western Europe may come something that is better than Western Europe has ever known oetore. That wouldn't be TOO diffi cult The prevailing idea in most of Europe has always been to keep the good things of life for the over-privileged few at the top at the expense of the under privileged many at tho bottom At any rate, it is better to be optimistic about the future than to be pessimistic. Hopeless pessimism never got anybody anywhere save deeper into the mucK. V'OU leave the Embankment at Westminster bridge and stroll on past Westminster Palace, and into Westminster Abbey, where lie the great of hngiand under inscriptions tell ing how they became great. You are intrigued by one of these inscriptions which tells how a certain Bukka achieved the renown that won him a rest ing place in the Abbey. It seems that he got his start "wait ing on" Charles II when he was wince of wales a sort of glori fied gentleman's gentleman. He must have been pretty good at his job, for when Charles be came king Bukka was elevated to the post of Gentleman's Usher, and in time he rose to be an Usher of the Black Rod. All put together, it got him a tomb and a monument in West minster Abbey. TT takes MORE than that to get into Westminster Abbey these days. It takes service of hand and head and heart TO THE PEOPLE, rather than panderina to the comfort of a profligate King sucn as unaries 11. And the men who sit today in Whitehall and in the halls of Westminster Palace, which is now the home of the British parliament, are obviously de termined that it shall be more that way rather than less in the years immediately to come. You come back from your walk with a comforted feeling that in spite of the mess that is western Europe the world is sull moving in the right direction. CALIFORNIA FIRES (Continued from Page One) their way to the Meadows Coun try club five miles from Fairfax. The two-day blaze just north of the Golden Gate was still out of control today, and was spread ing over rolling brush and tim ber lands despite efforts of sol dier, sailor, coast guard and civilian fire fighters. Between 15,000 and 20,000 acres have been burned over or are within the irregular fire front dotting the countryside. The little towns of Lagunltas and Forest Knoll were alerted during the night for evacuation, but prevailing westerly winds drove DacK tne menacing flames. Marin County Sheriff Walter B. Sellmer ordered buses and am bulances to remain on a standby basis if needed to bring out the residents. Many Fairfax people loaded their cars with valuables and car ried them to safer locations.

Other new developments to day: Danger of actual starvation among Japanese this winter "is very real," asserted Col. Ray mond Kramer, head of Mac Arthur's economic and scientific section. Occupation forces will not attempt to supply the need ed 4,500,000 tons of rice "with out consulting Washington," he said. The Japanese cabinet approved establishment of a council head ed by Premier Prince Higasht Kuni, to revise the system of electing the Japanese parlia ment. Substitute The allied command an nounced that the U. S. sixth in fantry division would be with drawn from Luzon and substi tuted for the 96th division in 24th army corps forces which will occupy Korea. The 96th, now Philippines-based, will be come a unit of the sixth army which is occupying southern Japan. Nippon's government was told to make the most of its water transportation facilities by work ing non-combatant shipping re sources around the clock seven days a week. The allied com mand also urged that the govern ment order Japanese shipyards to operate 24 hours a day to overcome the shortage of ship ping which has been the founda tion of many Japanese problems. The supreme command took over the Tsukiji Memorial hos pital in Tokyo, gift of the Amer ican people to the Japanese after the disastrous 1923 earthquake, for the use of eighth army troops. The Australian authority an nounced that more than 100 planes and 2000 personnel of the Royal Australian air force would fly to Tokyo in three or four weeks to help out in the occupa tion. General MacArthur's order to the Japanese government to halt immediately all control of the "written or spoken word" put an end to the government's trend of years to police the very thoughts of the Nipponese. He acted within a few hours after the Japanese home min istry had confiscated Tokyo and Osaka newspapers because they printed interviews of American correspondents with Emperor Hirohito and showed photo graphs of the mikado calling on MacArthur. In the strongest directive yet issued, the supreme allied com mander severed Japanese con trol over not only the news papers but the mails, telephones, telegraph lines, cables and radios. The home ministry, making what is regarded by American authorities as a prime political blunder, had seized the news papers and suspended them on the pretext that the contents were "too awesome and would have a bad effect on the Jap anese people."
