r* *. < . \ PACE 2 The State Port Pilot , S^mhport, N'?iO.' Published Rvkry Wednesday . -? 4?i-.w. '2i JAMES M. HARPER, JR. Editor (On Leave of Absence, In U. S. N. R.) Dntered as. second-class matter April 2fl> XfcS, at the Pest Office at Southpc.rt N O. under the I Act of Match 3 IS?9 SUBSCRIPTION RATES ONE YEAR $1.50! SIX MONTHS 1.00 THREE MONTHS 751 Wednesday, June 6, 1945 Supply And Demand The law af supply appears to be largely governed by demand:?in some eases. Tin is essential to canned milk, or. so the public is told. In the past few ! years the public has also been told of- i ten that one of the reasons for the canned milk shortage is the lack of tin fvnm which to make containers. No one questions that such milk has been badly needed for babies and for the youth of the land. I nobtainable, the public has often had to depend on less valuable substitutes. Last week a rural policeman in Brunswick county pactured a large j whiskey still. Advising a newsman of ; the raid, he said: "I do not believe j there is. a truck in Brunswick county j large enough to have hauled away, at i one load, all of the new empty onegallon syrup tin cans that were piled' up around that still." Do A7of Hesitate If you have been putting off buying those war bonds that it is your duty to buy. because you think the war is over, you should get rid of all such delusions and delay no longer. We haven't yet won the war in the Pacific; neither have we paid for winning against Germany. The papers this week tell of unprecedented numbers of service men dying in the Pacific, the Navy and Coast Guard being especially affected. Most of the deaths grew out of attacks of Japanese suicide planes. Much damage to shipping has also been reported from the operations of these planes. One high ranking official has been quoted during the past week to the effect that the suicide plane attacks have brought the country up against a condition as serious as that which pre- : vailed during the German submarine offense in 1942. Nothing is safer for the future than War Bonds, issued by the United ; States Government. Buy them now and save them against the day when they will pay you your full amount of interest. . The Day Of Reckoning Revelations recently regarding the treatment of prisoners of war in German prison camps shocked the world. Even the Germans professed to know nothing of what went on inside the camps. Until the closing days of the war me treatment of prisoners was horrible beyond description. The same condition exists in Japan, magnified many fold. The Japanese are experts at cruelty. It may be regarded as certain that the comparatively few prisoners of war in Japan have had a terrible lot. There is no hope for those who still survive. Japan must be beginning to realize, in the same way that Germany began to realize, that her defeat is certain and that there will be a day I of accounting. No Longer A Disturber Every man is said to have his price and during the early days of the war William Joyce, an Englishman, who was born in the United States, was offered his by the Germans. Leaving his country, he became a German propagandist. He also became the most despised and hated man who ever claimed British citizenship. As Lord Haw Haw on the radio, Joyce heaped sarcasm and ridicule upon his home country. Day after day during England's darkest period, and long after those days had passed, Lord Haw Haw laughed over the radio at England's- efforts and hopes of ever winning the war. Less than a year ago, with Germany's hopes evidently already fading, he became a German citizen, knowing well that he could never again claim ? * ; - ^ ^ fikiglaint- as hi* hoifie and hoping to avert death oh a charge ofv tfear'on 'whetj-^h^'iwar eh.ded. ? "Itast \yeek the 'BHtisIi captured Lor?i Haw', IjMv' Hv ckinied, they could hot |?fjftn'fl *fcnd "try1 him for tteasoh because he is now a German Subject. The firitish fcovemmenl Say* otherwise, They say. that Lord Haw Haw became a Gel-man subject during war time, that he can and will be returned, to his home country and tried for treason. His Lordship now laughs no longer, but many an English speaking man and woman is now laughing at the plight of one of the most despised men on earth. Toward Success A.t Sari Francisco The San Francisco Conference is now going into "the last quarter." The Score, if we may pursue the football idiom, is about as forecast by the experts before the game started. A victory for the forces of peace is nq\v assured, biit not such an overwhelming victory as to suggest that any of us on the home team- can afford to "breaktraining." Here is the wjiy tilings, will stand, approximately, at the end of this Conference: .fn international organization composed of a Security Council, an Economic and- Social Council, a General Assembly, an International Court and a Secretariat will await ratified tion by the 19 United Nations. The heart of this organization will be the Security Council. The heart of the Security Council will be the fivePower group of permanent members. The heart of their power as recognized by the United Nations. Charter will be the requirement of unanimity among them op questions of enforcement of the Deace and on neaceful settlements of disputes, except where one of the permanent members may be party to a dispute. One of the few surprises of the Conference has been provided by the "break-through" of the Economic and Social Council. This was a "secondstring" organization at Dumbarton Oaks, a subsidiary of the General Assembly. Now it is out in front with the other three main departments. True, it remains dependent on the Assembly for funds?a very important dependency, as the history of the "power of the purse" in parliamentary affairs so thoroughly illustrated. But the functions of this Council have been increased or broadened in several different ways, and it has been recognized as one of the major groups. Efforts to increase fundamentally the powers of the Assembly have failed, as have attempts to invest the International Court with powers of compulsory jurisdiction, But other important questions for the Court, such as preservation of the validity of treaties now under its jurisdiction and relations between it and non-members of the United Nations, have been ironed out. Here we have an outline of the San Francisco scene as we approach the close of the Conference. It is in the main an encouraging picture. Within the limitations set for it by the prerequisite that it honor national sovereignty, the Conference at San Francisco is achieving all that could be expected of it, and more than some expected.?The Christian Science Monitor. Outlook In The Pacific The tempo of the war against the Japs is being stepped up. Entirely aside from the vast amphibious operations which unquestionably were in preparation at this writing, the Allied siege lines around-Japan are being tightened?on Okinawa and in China. On Okinawa, bases for additional i ne situation in umna nas improved immeasurably in the past few months, with results which have become apparent in the past few weeks. Strong Chinese attacks toward the east coast from the area southeast of Chungking are threatening. Jap lines of communication. The Japs may soon have to consider the advisability of withdrawing all their forces from South China to avoid, encirclement and annihilation. Tactically, a successful Jap withdrawal from South China would be a minor victory for the enemy. Strategically it would be a serious defeat, inasmuch as it would give, us?by default?excellent ports through which we could supply Chinese forces and send in aririies of our own. STATE PORT PILOT.
