Monday, April 9, 1945 Victory By Edict HE proposal of General Dwight D. Eisenhower, Commander-in-chief of the Allied forces; to proclaim V-E Day as soon as the Americans, Brit- ish and Russians have occupied 'a little more of Germany offers a prac- tical solution for ending the war in Europe. . The V-E Day proclamation may be only a few weeks off, since the pres- ent rate of the Allied advance indi- cates Germany will soon be cut in two and that there will be a juncture of the American and Russian forces. The Nazi government can hardly be blamed for refusing to surrender; since most of its high officials are rated as murderers and slated for the noose. There is no one to make peace for Germany this time and within a short time it will have no armies able to defend any portion of it except some mountain fastness or remote corner. All of its best territory and major cities (the sites of its former cities) will be in Allied hands. Within a month no doubt the Al- lies will have proceeded so far with their occupation of the country and rout of the German armies the proc- ess of shifting our strength to the Pacific can be begun. It is more than likely that this has already started by the movement of the bulk of sup- plies towards the Pacific rather than to Europe. The Pacific -War to date has been fought with small armies, while the Allies have used millions in Europe. The transfer of 20 divisions, number- ing about 300,000 men, will not great- ly affect Allied strengthin Europe at this late hour, but the arrival of such re-enforcements to General Mac- Arthur would amount to a sensa- tional increase in his fighting re- sources. If it is possible to increase our fighting strength in the Pacific by one million men.in the* next six months there will still be enough left to handle the clean-up~in Europe while the Japs will be finding out what modern war really means.

The level and kinds 'of taxes we hawe are much big- ger fac Taxes can prove incentives for ent se, or they can discourage it. The government's attitude on many mat- ters other than taxes is m<factor in our domestic economy. , As banker for the world, the United States must bea going concern. It can- not lead the world to better times if it has perpetual hard times itself. This is not a selfish point of view. (It is an obvious truth which fortunately appears- to be gaining acceptance in the places where it counts the most. The jdealistic point of view held by some of our prominent internationalists may be more altruistic but would not pro- vide as sound a working formula- as the Federal Reserve Bank has laid downl. Two Kinds Of Incentive EARDSLEY RUML, who customarily talks with more than average wisdom, veered from his usual good sense in his address at the final session of the Academy of Political Science in New York last week. Mr. Ruml, who is chairman of the board of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and treasurer of R. H. Macy and Com- pany, said dividends on the stock of a corporation ~should be nominal withthe bulk of the profits going to the one or two individuals responsible for its success. By this procedure, said Mr. Rum, \profit could be-restored to one of its most im- portant functions in providing an aggres- sive, efficient and serviceable system of private, individual enterprise.\ R There is nothing wrong with the way this latter statement reads, except that Mr. Rum, like managements as a whole, teke a lot for granted. He indicates that management of eoncerns is not paid enough to provide proper incentive. He doesn't say where management would get its capital if all the incentive were removed from investments in the form of common stock. The assumption that successful. busi- nesses are built by a class of super-men takes too much for granted. There are not many worthwhile enterprises success- ful solely due to the efforts of one or two individuals. A study of the record, more- over, -will\ show that management takes pretty good care-of itself, - In studying: some of the corporation re- ports that have come to this office we have been amazed at the salaries paid officers of these companies. Very mediocre concerns that rate.as poor'investments, because they are not outstandingly successful in their field, think nothing of paying their presi- d 44s $50,000 a year and half a dozen vice- presidents $25,000 to $35,000 a year. The officers of the larger corporations, pay themselves all the way from $50,000 a year to $500,000, who would seem to be: incen- tive enough, We have found an instance of a man brought into a firm at a salary of $125,000 a year who was given the additional in- centive of an-option to buy some 80,000 shares of the company's stock at- a low figure. As we understand this deal, he will not buy the stock at all, 'but sell it when -it reaches an attractive level and take 'his profit without investin: any capital. It was because managements had taken such good care of themselves in the past that very little was left for stockholders that the Securities and EXchange Commis- sion was established. * M Deserved Recognition THE appointments -of General Douglas MacArthur and Admiral Chester W. Nimitz as supreme commanders for the Army and Navy respectively in the Pacific is deserved recognition of the splendid job they have already done in the war against Japan. The Navy has been fighting mainly in the Pacific since the outset of the war, but the end of the war in Europe will make it possible to greatly enlarge the Navy's strength in the Pacific. General MacArthur, however, has done most of his fighting with comparatively small armies. In his new command he will have adequate troops at his disposal for the first time since the Japs invaded the Philippines in December, 1941. The appointment of any. other: general besides MacArthur would have offended a majority of the American people, who feel that he has proved himself to be one of our most brilliant generals, with an impres- sive list of victories in spite of the odds under which he has conducted his cam- paigns. - If there is any friction between General MacArthur and Admiral Nimitz it does not seem to have prevented their forces from working together as a great tea The results of their co-operation indicate cordiality,- but above all complete under- standing. ~ As increased strength should 'be avail- able to them within a few weeks, it is only natural to believe the already fast tempo of the war in the Pacific is about to gain momentum that.will hasten its cogclusion. Civilians, we mre informed, will have only 4700 miatches each in 1945. That means only 13 per person per day. And there must beat least 50,000,000 persons who wish they could be sure of 'having something to light up with their allotment. -St. Ennis Post-Dispatch.

He ad- vocated among other things an American trusteeship for Pacific islands. The very same night and at almost the same hour in New York, the Carnegie peace endowment dinner heard Admiral King and other influential speakers say (quoting precisely from news accounts): \World security depends upon American security and world prosperity depends up- on American prosperity.\ He advocated that we keep bases in the Pacific, in line with making our own se- curity first. * This direct conflict of viewpoint was advertised as a cleavage in the \cabinet\ between the navy-war departments and state, but behind it was the new move- ment running through the whole govern- ment for a change of front. # # # Altruism is facing a gradually open- ing opposition. 'The theory that if we first save others we may save our- selves is hitting up against the doctrine that if we first save ourselves we can keep others safe. new theory (particularly on the point of bases) first developed in the services many months ago. The meir who went into those islands in the Pa- cific have seen British, French, Aus- tralian and French administrators move in to take civilian control as soon as the firing ceased, or in some cases the civilian administrators actually went in with the troops and exercised ciyilian control, Airports our men conquered, and so vital to the future security of the world, became the civil property of those nations which owned them be- fore the war. A check of the islands in the far Pacific under army control shows none outside the Philippines definitely es- tablished as postwar bases for us. We still have use of them for military operations, but the property of our Al- lies remains theirs. They have given us nothing. * #0 « % New Guinea has officially been placed under Australian and Dutch administrators. ougainville has been taken over by the ustralians (who incidentally murmured in the press against doing it on the ground that the Japs held it so long they had cre- ated civilian difficulties.) In the navy area of the central Pacific, the British administration is supposed to have gone back in most places but the navy refuses strangely enough to give out the facts of the situation, saying: \We cannot speak for the British.\ (Whatever that means.) The service people who have fought through these campaigns know these situa- tions, although they are not generally known or observed by our public. From such beginnings, I think, has sprung the position which Admiral King is now open- ly pressing. If a vote were taken upon Stettinius or King in the senate today, King would win overwhelmingly, at least upon the single issue of whether we should own. those bases which are éssential to our postwar cause of a peaceful world. A superficial canvass shows little sympathy for man- dates or \trusteeships which might prove insecure or embarrassing. U # * Even Foreign Relations Chairman Connally, an administration man, ' thinks we should have New Caledonia, which was French, However, be has not gone so far yet as to permit hear- ings for the McKellar resolution, which would take practically all the islands we are conquering, including the Japs. Average senate opinion strikes firm- ly to the- line that we should have as many bases as we need for our own security 'and thus for world security. Also as all these nations-all our friends-owe us more money than they can repay in cash or goods, it ap- pears a bargain for bases might not be out of line. ~ Thus a more enlightened and prac- tical fiture-visioning theory of world peace is fast gaining ground. Among the mysteries of wartime is that of the identity of the artist who designed the ration coupons. .He seems to be just about as anonymous as the chap who de- vises income tax forms. -- Washington Evening Star. & In the midst of a lively fight in the Okla- homa House of Representatives an inno- cent bystander was hit by a flying ash tray.
