Carl Spaatz, commander of the army air forces, looked hard at his world map and found little reassurance that this nation is free from the threat of another Pearl Harbor. ; “. On the contrary, he warned veterans of two world asp; the United States ig wide open at the top”—in the

x out” if there must be a world war IIH, 3 . " “Through the Arctic,” Gen. Spaatz said, “every indus trialized country is within reach of our strategic air force.” But, more ominously: “We are similarly exposed.” Like other thoughtful students of ‘world affairs, Gen. Spaatz realizes that the United States will never wage an aggressive war. But we must protect our industries and our defensive potential. And, as he said, “any plan for national defense which ignores our new air frontiér in the far north is a sheer waste of American time and money.” 3 The warning is timely. American airpower must be kept at peak efficiency in the strategic area rimming the Arctic circle. Since V-J day, however, we have abandoned many of our major bases, and scores of deserted airfields dot the Alaskan landscape, a tempting avenue for attack. This country will ‘be viilnérable so long as it is ‘wide open at the top. The time to deal with that danger is now.

SABOTAGE BY ANONYMITY AMERIC AN prestige is not being upheld too well in most Co parts of the world, Our position in Japan has beeh a happy exception in that respect, due wholly to the real

statesmanship, courage and grim determination of Gen. Douglas MacArthur.

"The state department should be proud of the banner of uncompromising Americanism flying over Tokyo. Probably the department's top-level officials do take pride in our achievements in Japan. Unfortunately, however, the department is a house divided against itself and one made up of many kinds, somé of which are petty, mean and malicious.

An inspired attack against Gen. MacArthur and his policies in Japan appeared Tuesday in the New York _ Herald Tribune. Its origin was anonymous, and the more “xigious on that account. The “staté department sources” to which it was credited left the inference that the state- - ments made, while unofficial, represented the department's consideréd opinion... The subsequent repudiation of that inference by an authorized statement, however, indicates that the attack was nothing more than the personal attitude of an unidentified individual somewhere ini the department. : ~The attack on Gen. MacArthur is less important than “the vicious practice of anonymous. policy assassination which it reveals. j : It was-another attempt to sabotage American prestige ‘and effort abroad by a stab in the back at home, by one of the department's mid-level Jeaks-for-which-it has become notorious.

MacArthur alleged he had ated “in violation of American policy directives to him by President Truman” when he issued a statemert on political copditions in Japan, It stated his position was in conflict h our policy of “building a bridge of friendship to Soviet Russia.” It added that the department was particularly disturbed by anything “resembling a move to launch an anti-Communist campaign in Japan.”

; All of this, according to Lincoln White, the department’s press Secretary, was unwarranted, because Gen. ag hur was adhering to basic U. S. policy in the Far E it when he warned that Japan might be victimized by proponents of a “philosophy of the extreme radical left.” Perhaps this prompt repudiation of this sneak attack came soon enough to prevent the untold damage which would have been done abroad had the foreign press accepted at face value the plain implication that Gen.

NEW YORK, Sept. 5—~On the premise that misery loves company, it will be of wistful comfort to the puzzled guy on the corner to know that our professional military people are just as bewildered over-the future as he is. Army and navy are a little bit pathetic in an effort to hang onto the old while frantically attempting to embrace the new. Both West Point and Annapolis are gawky with growing pains, and the whiskers of the man do not as yet conceal the pimples of the boy. I did a piece the other day about the new instruc-

‘SAGA OF INDIANA . . . by William A. Marlow “ First Hoosiers Liked Home-Made Law

The basic tone of the law that e good Hoosier calls home-made is this: It must be positive, decisive, and fair, and there is no soothing sirup in that concept—no frills, no evasion, no slippery technical loop-holes. - The following case from pioneer days will illustrate: A local court of Indiana Territory down in southern Indiana tried a horse thief. The county jail was full of horse thieves. The surrounding coun= try was full of them, The culprit at the bar was found guilty by the jury. Now come the frills. The thief's attorney begs all the pioneer moves to defeat justice. The judge was Marston G. Clark, cousin of George Rogers Clark. The thief's attorney made a niotion that Judge Clark ostensibly admitted ‘deserved consideration. Then he adjourned ‘court, with the thief's case the first to be called next morning. Court adjourned, Clark quietly instructed the sheriff to take the culprit to the woods at 12 o'clock that night, and give him 39 lashes, laying it on, the law’s limit,

Touch Still Lingers

WHEN THE CASE WAS CALLED next morning, Judge Clark said everybody knew the thief was guilty, but in order to be fair, he would grant. 4 new trial. Instantly, the thief yelled: “No, no, I'm whipped to death now.” (This his attorney did not know). Judge Clark quietly dismissed the case: Not a horse was stolen in that community for years This is a simple illustration of the home-made slant of pioneer Indiana law. - The spirit of this runs through the administration of Ingiiana law even to Its home-made touch lingers on. it

A strong interna= tional administration under the United Nalions se= curity council might discourage a Yugoslav attempt at illegal seizure—at least for a while.

A second reason is that Trieste is far more essential to landlocked central Eurdpean powers than to either Yugoslavia or Italy, and neither Bel grade nor Rome can be trusted to administer it for the benefit of the others. Only an international body can do that. Danger is that international control will be phony, that it will he only a coverup for actual Yugoslav control as proposed by Russia.
