That “next time” will be far different than
1914 and 1939. As Secretary of the Navy For-
restal warned us this week, the airplane and |
the robot bomb dried up the English chan-

those weapons will inevitably dry up the
Atlantic and Pacific oceans. If the enemies
of mankind are allowed to rearm and de-
stroy peace again, and if they catch an
America unprepared for instant and effec-

years or five vears or ten, but in six months.

weight around, but the grim fact is that we

Washington Calling—
LAW NEEDED TO CURB LOBBYISTS
By JAMES MARLOW
WASHINGTON, Dec. 13—(PP)
—So the war workers think the
fighting's over and are running -
away from their jobs, are they?
Maybe you came to believe
that in the past few weeks But
the figures don’t bear that out.
On the contrary. .
Workers in non-war jobs are
doing more job-changing than
war workers.
A special survey by the War
Manpower commission — made
public here for the first time—
shows that:
Workers are quitting non-war
jobs at a rate of 60 to TO per
1,000 a month.
War workers are quitting their
jobs in the munitions industries
at a rate of 40 to 55 per 1,000.
In manufacturing industries
—where war workers are heavily
concentrated — there was less
job quitting this year than in
1943.
From here on the figures used
are from the Bureau of Labor
Statistics which gathers them
monthly. The latest are for Oc-
tober.
(The word 'separations" la
the general, over-all word cover-
ing all reasons why a worker
leaves a job. Those reasons are:
quitting; being discharged or
fired; being laid off for lack of
work; and being drafted.)
These figures show what has
been happening to employment
in manufacturing Industries gen-
erally:
Total separations in October,
1944, were 64 per 1.000. They
were 70 per 1,000 in October of
1943. .................. —
October showed the lowest to-
tal of separations of any month .
this year. And separations In
every month of 1844—except
May—were lower than In the
corresponding month of 1843.
For every 50 workers who quit
last October, 53 quit in October.
1943
There was a spurt of job-quit-
ting In late summer. In Septem-
ber 51 out of every 1.000 quit and
in August 62 out of every 1,000. . 1
...
A quick look at this might
make you think news of the Ger- -
man disasters in France made
the workers think the war would
soon be over. Q 1
But the same thing had hap-
pened a year ago, only worse. In
September and August of last
year 83 out of every 1,000 workers
quit. This is a seasonal spurt
when a lot of boys and girls go
back to school. 4
But how does 1944 as a whole
compare with 1943 in Job-
quitting? In 7 of the 10 months
between last January and Octo-
ber. quits were less than in
1943. a
The number of people fired P
for cause in October, 1944, was
6 per 1,000, exactly the same as
in October, 1943 The number
of people fired in 1944 generally
paralleled the figures for 1943.
The real difference in the fig- G
ures between the two years came
in the number of people out of
jobs drafted into the armed
service. They were 3 per 1.000
last October but 7 per 1,000 in
October, 1943. O
This drop reflected the chang-
ed policy of selective service to
take fewer, and younger men.
This was possible because the
armed forces, nearing their goals
of full strength, had less man-
power needs. C
But what about the number
of workers who replaced those
separated from their jobs for
any reasons?
In October, 1944, for every 64
out of 1.000 workers who were
separated, there were 60 re-3
placements.
But there is something to be
remembered here. There are
fewer people available for work
than there were a year ago.

tal issue.

tion of whether the Republicans

things that are happening in
What Fate Holds For Us
President Edward A. O’Neal of the Ameri-
can Farm Bureau Federation this week ad-
vocated a world organization to maintain
peace “by force, if necessary.” .
We in this country—a country catapulted
by Fate into a commanding position of world
leadership”—must “undertake a completely

Mr. O’Neal’s belief. ..
There is no doubt that this nation does

Testifying before a senate
committee on Saturday. Biddle
said that Corcoran was his very
good friend. He went on to say
that when this good friend had
come to the department of jus-
tice on business, he, the attor-
ney general, had never granted
any of his requests.
Think of what that means
for a moment. Think of the
embarrassment that Corcoran
must have caused his friend,
Biddle. .. ...
There are many "friends like
that around Washington, and
surely Biddle at this point would
favor a measure which would
put an end to the possibility of
such embarrassments.
NEW LAW NEEDED
Now is the time for him to
come forward with a proposal for
a law that would prevent law-
yers serving in government de-
partments from practicing be-
fore any government depart-
ment for a fixed term of years
after they leave the government
service. .
The period should be at least
__2-----
three years, and probably five.
It's hard to see how any Dem-
ocrat or any Republican could
vote against such a measure.
Here is a chance to adopt a con-
structive reform that would end,
or at least curb, wha has be-
come a national scandal.
Some men leaving the gov-
ernment service have higher
ethical standards than others.
Under such a law, they would
not be penalized by their less
ethical colleagues. ____
For example, James Lawrence
Fly has recently resigned as
chairman of the Federal Com-
munications, Commission to
practice law in New York City.
In my estimation, he was an
honorable public servant in a
difficult position. He knows
very well the embarrassment he
would cause his firends who
are still members of the com-
mission if he were to come be-
fore them .with a plea for cli-
ents.
An interesting case in point.
Is that of Thurman Arnold.
While he was head of the anti-
trust division of the department
of justice, and making a real
effort to smash economic bottle-
necks, several big business firms
made him large offers to join
their legal staffs what they
hoped, of course, was that Arn-
old, after joining up with them,
would go back to Washington
and argue their cause before his
former subordinates.
Arnold refused these offers,
forced to suspend his anti-trust
drive by those-who said it was
impeding the war effort, he ac-
cepted a judgeship on the cir-
cuit court of appeals in the
District of Columbia His salary
is $12,500 a year, as compared to
the $50,000 or $75,000 he might
have got from private business.
• • •
FAMILIAR PATTERN
This is an all too familiar
pattern Business firms try to /
hire lawyers out of the govern-
ment service not on a basis of
their legal skiU, but for the in-
fluence they can wield in ob-
taining favors out of govern-
ment.
In order to stop that sort of
thing, some government depart-
ments have put in regulations
forbidding men out of their de-
partments to come back and
practice before the department
for a specific time Thus, Henry
Wallace, when he was secretary
of agriculture, found his bright
young lawyers being hired away,
and so he put a regulation into
effect which said they could not
argue cases before the depart-
ment of agriculture for two
years after resigning from the
department.
But a regulation is not
enough. It is too easy to get
around such a regulation, us-
ing another firm as a front,
just as Corcoran is said to have
used a prominent law firm as
a front for at least part of his
government business. A law
providing severe penalties for
violation is what is needed And
the penalties should be stiff
enough to frighten those who
might want to evade the Jaw.
Now is the time, and no one
could, with more reason, come
forward with such a proposal
than Attorney General Biddle.
He knows from first-hand ex-
perience what it means to turn
down a friend.

Postwar Employment— i
60 MILLION JOBS UNATTAINABLE?
By PETER EDSON
The Reporter-News Washington
Correspondent
The beautiful dream of 50
million postwar jobs in the Uni-
ted States, handled about rath-
er freely in pre-election oratory
from both parties, now appears
to be coming in for sober sec-
ond thinking. This leads, to a
few doubts as to ability of
achieving this magnificent goal
of full employ-
ment. and even
to questioning
desirability of
having nearly
halt the popula-
tion at work in
the peacetime
world.
All such dous-
ing of pie in
the sky with
_______I cold water by
EDSON prophets of
gloom gives extreme annoyance
to the onward and upward
prophets of optimistic postwar
planning.
Undersecretary fo Commerce
Wayne Chatfield Taylor, speak-
ing at New Orleans the other
day, took occasion to blast at
the individuals who "talk
mournfully about how terrible
peace is going to be "
Secretary Taylor referred spe-
cifically to "imported econom-
ists" saying, "It is difficult to
understand why some of us
insist on paying fat fees to those
gentlemen for telling us that
democracy will surely fall in
the nited States because cer-
Main half-hearted attempts fail-
ed in Germany "
AS ONE “IMPORTED
ECONOMIST” SEES IT
One of those he apparently
had in mind was Dr. Julius
Hirsch, New York economist
who at recent New York and
Boston conferences on manage-
ment and distribution took oc-
casion to heckle the undersecre-
tary and Dr. Amos Taylor, head
of the Bureau of Foreign and
Domestic Commerce.
. Hirsch, a former minister of
finance In Germany, made his
way to Denmark with the ad-
vent of Hitler, lectured at Uni-
versity of Copenhagen, then was
permitted to cross Siberia to
Japan, where he lectured for a
short time before coming to the
United States and setting up
as an economic consultant for
hire.
Hirsch's position is that de-
flation has already started, that
wishful thinking cannot produce
BO million jobs and that the best
possible private Industry em-
ployment—not counting those on
public works projects—will be in
the neighborhood of 48 million
jobs.
The viewpoint of Hirsch and
similarly-minded gents may be
not so much pessimistic as mere-
ly realistic in demanding to be
shown where all these jobs are
coming from. But on top of this
there has now come a new
note-a demand to know why it
is necessary to have go million
people employed, and a charge
that 00 million jobs would mean
the end of the American way of
life. .
WHAT WOULD WE DO
WITH ALL THOSE JOBST
Most vocal exponent of this
idea is William F. O'Nell of Ak-
ron, president of General Tire,
who. pointing out that there are
135 million people in the U 8.
and that the average family
consists of four and a half per-
sons, says that "Sixty million
jobs would mean two Jobs to
every family, and this is too
much."
"America has been built
around the family." O'Nell goes
on. "The man of the house
works to provide his wife and
children with a home ... To
supply 60 million jobs is to
break up that home because it
means that the wife, too, will
probably be working. ... It
means fewer children, and they
will have to bring themselves
up as best they can, until they
can step into one of those 50
million Jobs themselves."
O’Neil’s formula Is first to see
how much manufactured or
grown produce can be assimil-
ated, then see how productive
work can be given to the heads
of families. The weak spot in his
argument is that it makes no
provision for the millions of
. young folks able to work but not
I able to step right into family re-
sponsibilities.
Aside from that, maybe he is
aiming at something real and
the sights have been set too
high in shooting at 90 million
jobs.
ALL ALLIES GIVING FULL MEASURE
Russia urged an invasion of wes-
tern Europe by Britain and
America to ease her terrific
strain. And recently some folks
have been wondering why the
Muscovites haven't attacked the
Vistula line to support the Al-
lied drive in the west.
However, while the needy ones
have felt anxiety at the time
of need, there seems to have
been general recognition that
the Allies have contributed will-
ingly to the extent of their
means. There never has been
any question, so far as I know,
of making all the contributions
balance exactly. Reasonable
men have remembered the para-
ble of the widow's mite.
Bill Would Protect
Service Offspring
WASHINGTON Dec. 13.—(PP—-
The House passed a bill Tuesday to
safeguard the American citizenship
of children born to servicemen of
minor age as the result of marriage
overseas ....
The bill provides that children
born of an American father over 18.
years old shall be United States
citizens. The present legal mini-
mum is 31 years. .
Representative Dickstein (D.-
N.Y.) told the House more than
1400 servicemen under 31 have
married Australian girls and de-
clared: "This bill is to protect the
citizenship of children born of those
marriages'' • '.

Bv DeWITT MACKENZIE
Associated Press War Analyst
The editor of an American
newspaper has asked this col-
umn whether there's any injus.
tice in the fact that Uncle Sam
is carrying on his broad shoul-
ders the bulk of the military
--============-0-a-d- in both
western Europe
and the Orient.

Aests that if
M here are any
MAcRENZIE suspicions they
should be ironed out now and
not be carried into the post-
war period to plague a nervous
peace—and of course he's right.
My own feeling (and I've an-
alysed this war as an observer
since it was incubated at the
Munich conference, which I at-
tended) is that there's no basis
from a military standpoint for
any one of the Big Three to
feel that it's carrying an un-
just load-a bigger load, yes, but
not an unjust one. All the in-
dications support Secretary at
War Stimson's recent statement
that he's convinced "all the Al-
lies are contributing to the full
measure of their resources."
That's the way it looks to this
column from the “military
standpoint." If you retort that
power politics are being play-
ed in Europe, I shan’t dispute
you but shall insist that we
shouldn't get political problems
mixed up with the military as-
pect—or trade and economic
