President Truman asked
congress to abolish the three-
man board and appoint a one-
man surplus property adminis-
trator to dispose of one hun-
dred billion dollars worth ot
property. One man, it is con-
tented, can dispose of the pro-
perty quicker than can three
men. That may be true, but it
may also cost the American
taxpayer a lot of money.
hiding. Should they come out
and fight, and should they be
manned by the fanatics who
think it is a glorious death to
die for the Emperor, we may
expect losses to our ships. But,
if and when that happens, it
will prove to be the final battle.
It will mark the end of the
Japs. Our forces are ready for
them.
All railway passenger coach-
es were pooled to be available
for use of the military forces,
says a report from ODT, Wash-
ington.
“The military requirements
must and will be met,” said
ODT. The regular schedules of
some passenger trains may be
suspended for a time, until the
servicemen are moved from the
Atlantic t® the Pacific, it is
said.
In this the public will gladly
co-operate.
One of the most momentous
questions for the Big Three to
decide in Berlin is the possible
entry of Russia into the war a-
gainst Japan. And with the
progress we are making in the
Pacific, it is probable that
Stalin would like to get in on
the division of the spoils after
the war. That, of course, would
out of the question, unless

FARMERS FACE NEW ERA
“The farm is still the broad
enduring base upon which the
entire United States economy
j rests,” says Fortune for June,
1945. In its farm column it des-
cribes some of the revolution-
ary processes and problems
that farmers face, including
scientific seeding, greater use
of machinery to maintain pro-
duction with fewer people than
ever before, and legislative
I questions that are becoming
most complicated. The farmer
j is helpless to make himself
J heard through concerted action.
In the meantime, he.feeds the
world.

President Truman made a
statement that he would offer | arrival
“any reasonable American co- ' Frosch
operation toward the rehabili- alarm
tation of Europe, expecting in j their
return assurances that the
European countries will
together for adjustment of is-
sues that might carry the germs
of war." In other words, Am-
ericans are willing to
their goods, their financial re-
sources, their food, only if
Europe promises to keep the
peace.
President Truman will have
the support of every peace-lov-
ing American in that pledge.
This country entered the war
not for gain, not for expansion,
but for a lasting and just peace.
We have fed the Europeans, we
have supplied them with mun-
itions of war, we have done so
without hope of repayment.
Now, that we have won the
war, we want to be assured
that any further contributiort.
we make to them will not be
used toward preparing for an-
other war.
President Truman should
impress on Mr. Churchill and
Mr. Stalin that this country is
not interested in ejmansinn and
increased power of any of the
European nations. Hat we
want a peace based on justice.
It’s needless to say that the
only kind of peace that will he
permanent is a peace based on
justice. We can set up all kinds
of governments in Europe. We
