NEW YORk--President Roose-
velts remark this week that there
Is no evidence Of dilatory tactics
by big business because Of the
question OF profits on national de-
Tense orders WAS the first friendly
presidential statement to capital
since the famous breathing spell"
The presidents statement offsets
politically inspired declarations by
some members of congress 10 the
effect that the defense program Is
being delayed because corporations
insist upon large war-order profits.
President Roosevelt placed the
cause OF delay squarely on the
shoulders Of congress.
As far as war profits are CON
cerned, your correspondent finds
that corporate executives are In
favor Of profits being reduced TO a
minimum while the interests Of the
country are at stake. and that they
would like 10 see the department
OF justice 20 after the few small
corporations that think otherwise.
Cooperation-Labor men say the
steel companies didn't boost fourth
quarter delivery prices because they
feared possible demands for higher
wages. Steel men say fourth-quar-
ter prices were retained In order
10 cooperate with the government
In holding national defense costs as
low as possible.
Cautious ~ Government figures
disclose that income payments 10
individuals are running about two
billion dollars ahead Of the $40. O70.-
ooo. 900 paid out by this time last
year. That should mean q greater
volume Of public spending. But
bank debts don't confirm this.
Weekly bank statements show that
spending IL on the decline. Finan-
cisl minds say the public Ia pre-
pairing for possible rainy days"
Rscord-breaking bank deposits con-
firm this view.

Life Of A
President

TT would be pleasant to say, in recalling a
phase of the career of George Washing
ton, whose birthday we this week celebrate,
that at least during his term as chief
executive he enjoyed the unanimous respect
of all. But it's impossible.
AS matter of fact he was the object of
many venomous attack. He had two po-
litical factions bitterly opposed to contend
with. He was accused of being monarchial
in tendency. The fact that he was aristo-
cratic and thought it well to ride in a six
horse carriage made an unfavorable impress
sion on the yoemen element. Demagogues
even ventured to assail his honesty.
SO he was glad when retirement came.
AS who wouldn't be? That question breeds
another: Who wants to be President of the
United States? or of anything else for that
matter.

Athletics Still
On Upgrade

MORE fortunate than most schools from
standpoint of athletics patronage are the
schools of Newark For in proportion it is
safe to say they have more laymen taking
active interest in sports promotions than
any other school system in the state.
This has been particularly true since the
organization of the Newark High School
Boosters Club here several years ago. Since
then sports have profited financially and
scholastically through steady ascension
This exhumation of interest has been re-
sponsible for the standing we enjoy in ath-
letics among other schools, our stadium, our
high school bands regeneration and various
other projects of advantage.
And it is noteworthy that once a job is
completed by these men and women for the
advancement of sports, action does not end
With an eye to the future and the benefits
to be derived from the extension of sports,
they look about for something else.
Latest innovation to be sponsored by
these boosters is an annual field and track
meet at White Athletic field. Successful
SIOU1UWOIh Was 1dlu UtlOIO Vic 1UCd w do
ever presented. Consequently the plan is
assured.
Details will be worked out by the Newark
Relays Association, group appointed this
week and headed by Ray Hull, chairman.
First meet will be held May A, with valuable
trophies and other awards going to winners.
Twelve schools have already accepted invi-
tations to compete and others will follow
suit Initial financial aid to the venture
came with the subscription of S25 from the
Boosters Club. In all, $3.50 is needed and
there is every reason to believe it will be
forthcoming.
School work without athletic activities
would be drab affair. Proof of this asser-
~tion may be found in the part they have
played in the universities of the nation.
With competitive sports comes recognition,
added concernment for studies and increas-
ed consciousness in schools on the part of
the public.
Ray Hull and his associates in the Relays
Association should have the full support of
the people of Newark. We can rest assured
that their part of the work will be carried
out to the letter.
