iflsl \ yr-Jrr \ \ Asa soldier, organizer, speaker and writer. General Johnson has left the imprint of his forceful personality on American affairs. His herculean efforts in the tremendous task of codifying American industry established him as a man of action. And his speeches and written articles have established him as a vivid, forceful speaker and writer with a rare gift for pungent phrase making. In his articles in The Times, General Johnson will be free to express his personal views and opinions without hindrance of editorial blue pencil. That does not mean that The Times will agree with what he has to say. In fact, it has reason to believe that it will often disagree. And when it does, The Times will not hesitate to say so, vigorously and pointedly.' • In these perplexed days, the American people have need of an understanding of all sides of the conflicting opinions concerning the problems to be solved. General Johnson sets forth vividly and interestingly one point of view. Whether you agree with him or not, you'll find his column well worth reading.
