The trouble' about price control as an antidote against inflation is that the wlmie scheme is too restricted. If price- were frozen all over on every-i thing, there would and could be no! inflationary nenace. What has hap pened ,.- tiiat such ceilings as have been e.-taMi bed apply to all too few commodities, with others left free and open ■ ;th tile sky as the limit. Wiulc Henderson's threats of a nature .eking of attempted in- j tinndation f Congress are rather I disgusting, some congressmen can scarcely Ly clam; to playing the onm< all ti •• way, lor they have re fused to pern it stabilization of wages and Pee. ; ;ces. And until this is done, there e- little use of talking about ceilings for this or that and expecting irh gesture.- to create a barrier m net inflation. They just won't. Our ", e n 'lion is that Headers*>e wa- given ■- .. . uch authority in the fir t place. Tli ,t goes, too, for other folk m W • i ngton, for Congress ha many t ■ ■ before thi.- -urrendered it- prerogaii > . and functions to the executive ioanch of the government, and Hend" .on's attitude is but boomerang coning back to strike In: legislatoi n the face. Since thev granted h the powers he is now exercising, it i- hardly becoming to criticize him he taking advantage of the situation. The limit lie in both place.- and the con un mg public, which foot the bill, i- again and as usual the goat. Hender on reins to share Secre tary Morgonthau's feeling that taxes are not yet heavy enough to avert inflation. For both of them, we sus pect many could answer that the Federal government's “take" already is so heavy a to intensify burdens in thi field which long have been about all that can be met even at. great privation. Already there is enough of that, and too much. Our understanding is that in Canada they have had universal price pegging for a long time and it is working satisfactorily all along the line. Here politics is so great a consideration as to throttle efforts toward complete control of prices. Until that can be brought into play other mnvo« toward preventing in flation need not be relied on for desired results. Utopia may be a long time off for us adult , but not for small boys. Among th*- new toys is a miniature tank which nres chocolate drop*. That Bad New* Those prophets who long have contended that news from the many War fronts would get a lot worse be fore it got much better are coming into their own now. They are m just the position to yell the familiar 1 told you so." Major British defeats in Atrica were not generally anticipated Yei the record ot the two-year-old strug gle m that arena has been a constant see-sawing back and forth, with lirst i.ne and then the other side produc ing the cheering developments. Twice the British have driven Axis forces westward across the burning sands of the desert only to be thrown back precipitately and at least once w ith greater speed than their own ad vance had been before. If Rommel's armies ero-s onto Egyptian soil soon it will not be the first time that has happened. Sur prisingly. however, London has ad mitted superior German generalship accounted for their defeat this tune. . and that even ill the face ..| their | ■wn mastery ot the air. Her'', then. | is at least one instance in which an -upreinacy did not turn the trick, a it has in most battles of the win to this time. Not only were people of the dcr oeracies not prepared for such re- j verses is these, but they cannot un derstand why they should have hap-J petted .it all. With Tobruk gone and with the Germans in Bardin, another Libyan ' stronghold ot the British, it seen - fairly certain that they have travel ed east this time foi keeps it least until the war generally reaches it dcci-ive md final stage What vvor-j ries most, however, is not merely tho j los- of these strategic points, but the very real peril to Egypt anil Sue; and to Middle East oil and o*hi i v Ml necessities German armies need, and vv h eh they are striving desperately to gain. More had news is coming, too. ‘roe the Crimaea. In spi'e ■ a the de perate and determined resistance of the R;mils a!

In importance it ranks ah w as another Singapore. \v:'h tlie ho of which by the British went to the Japanese aggressors control ,,f * large portion of the southwest ; Pacific, except Australia. 1: Hitler can blot out Sevastopol on his right! flank, the way to the Cauca- i oil | fields will i)e simpler. Nor is this all of the bad news. The Russians themselves cntvedo the Germans are making some headway aiamtfd Kharkov, and that is ounri j reason for concern on the part o: j the Allies. Here. too. Hitler :s pay ing dearly for lii- gains with reck less sacrifice of human life, hut that .s as nothing to him so long- a- he is going places.

And there may I .■ more, much n ore. had new - heWn there i riel mite and permanent gout t ews for our side Certainly at tin time there is none too much -'lift ground for optimi-m on a grand scale. They Mean Business Landings ot Japanese toree- on the Ala.-kan archipelago cannot be ex plained away by characterizing them as mere "token" move by tin nemy. as some otliriai- have seemed to wish the country to think. It i. not as simple as till that; would that it were. The Japs attacked Dutch Harbor to do whatever damage they could do. They have landed a force at Attn for such advantage as could be dc rived from such a move. It will be noticed that they have . nown no in clination to get out, either volun tarily or in the face of the manhutT being earned on by our Army and Navy planes, but have eluded these searchers and may be supposed b be actively engaged in entrenching themselves as firmly as possible. Unless they are ousted from this initial toehold, it will ho easier fo. them to creep on a little furtho northwestward until they re.,el. points winch even the woiildbe op timistic would be lorccd ‘.o admit were serious progre -. Manifestly, it is easier for the Japs to make a landing and hide away in the crev ices and ernes than for American sleuths to find them. Once located, it should not be difficult to dislodge them, if a serious attempt were made to that end. Firing on Vancouver island in Canada and a section of the Amer ican mainland near A-troria. Oregon, may be a "token.' too. as some gb.t have the country think. But tt ei uld very reasonably be vastly more tli.m that, even a feeler to locate soft spots for possible future operations ot "ore far-reaching consequence. One tune too many we have al ready ret used to take tile Japs seri ously and have underestimated their prowress. We shall be downright dumb :I we make that silly m.stake again.

Pre tending a desire to go into retreat, they (nter monasteries and spy upon the priests and religious, according to the Netherlands Press agency here. Volk cb Vaderland, a Dutch nazi paper, tells of a youth who-went inl*» a Franciscan priory at The Hague, ostensibly for a retreat.
