hngs among themselves is a matter of common talk. They disagree
in every direction, but it is almost never that one wins a clean-cut
nlTTJf the,ther feUW- Their 1uarrels SO on indefinitely.
Now and then some bureau head, like Leon Henderson, is forced out
but his successor almost invariably finds himself in just as hot soup
as his PRE-decessor. v
The outstanding conflicts are currently between civilian and mill
tary authorities.
If in one of these controversies, some individual's job goes into
the discard, it generally is a civilian s, for he is likelier to become
discouraged and resign than an Army or
Navy officer is to surrender his commis
sion. However, the row continues, under new
civilian management.
There IS a civilian, though, who "gets
away with it."
That is Director Elmer Davis of the
Office of War Information. What .he says
"goes."
This is a curious situation. 1 have
known Elmer ever since World War No.
I s days. That was before he had gradu
ated into the ranks of radio broadcasters.
He was just an ordinary scribe a re
corder of current events; not even an
editorialist. He was a peppy chap, but
not hard-boiled, particularly. Today he
"sasses" folk even up to the White House,
And nobody argues with him.
The evident explanation is that he so clearly knows his business
publicity, i
Executive administration and the Army and Navy eat out of his
hand. They know that, should he quit, they could not find a 5 per
cent substitute for him. They simply do not dare quarrel with him.
He not only gets on admirably with the Yankee press and news
papers in our associated and qualified friendly countries. He also
slides his dope into columns in enemy realms. It is so good that
they actually must avail themselves of it!
Elmer has staffs all over the world, in capitals with which we are
oh good terms, but I will wager he also has them, unsuspected, in
Axis centers.
As to our own military establishment, he recently appointed Rear
Admiral R. P MeCiillough, as an expert on "confidential informa
tion " The admiral was not "wished" onto him, in a supervisory ca
pacity Elmer picked him as an unquestioned underling of his own.
It is "going some" when an admiral is designated as an assistant to
an ordinary newspaperman in wartime!
Admiral McCullough's function is not to SUPPRESS information.
Davis' mission is to DISSEMINATE it.
Byron Price is the censor. Davis is the advertiser. Byron is the
husher. The two functions clash normally. They do not this time.
Elmer and Byron co-operate wonderfully well.
Admiral McCullough is a kind of a liaison officer between them,
under Davis' direction.
You do not hear much about Byron, do you? You
hear a lot about Elmer. Davit Bitter
One of Elmer Davis' theses is that we need the Foa of Black
death penalty for black marketing.
wDavis' proposition is that unauthorized" grub will Marle,er
feed us with fatal stuff if it is not suppressed at its
source that it is indirect murder. General Counsel Wilbur LaRoe
of the Independent Packers' association says so. Wilbur blames the
Office of Price Administration. Mayor Fiorello H. LaGuardia of New
York backs up. this assertion.
The point is that there is no politics Involved in the Davis reason
ing. He is an unqualified newspaperman and radio broadcaster.

Be Quick To Treat
Bronchitis
Chronic bronchitis may develop if
your cough, chest cold, or acute bron
chitis is not treated and you cannot
afford to take a chance with any medi
cine less potent than Creomulsion
which goes right to the seat of the
t rouble to help loosen and expel germ
laden phlegm and aid nature to
soothe and heal raw, tender, inflamed
bronchial mucous membranes.
Creomulsion blends beechwood
creosote by special process with other
time tested medicines for coughs.
It contains no narcotics.
No matter how many medicines
you have tried, tell your druggist to
sell you a bottle of Creomulsion with
the understanding you must like the
way it quickly allays the cough, per
mitting rest and sleep, or you are to
have your money back. (Adv.)
