B. A. c.: Please inform me if
am going to be successful in the
business that I have or not?
Ans: To some degree you will
meet with success, but you aren't
going to become rich from it. |
am sure that you would be using
good judgment to continue to try
for the job that you have had in
mind for the past year, for if you
succeed in getting it, your worries
would be over.
S. E. B.: Is it natural for my
son to act as he does or not and
what must I expect? Is he coming
home to live?
Ans: All boys go through this
same period of life that he is ex-
periencing at this time, but it
doesn't last very long as rule.
He will settle down and get mar
ried and will live a clean normal
life. No, do not think that he will
come home to live, he will make a
home for his future wife else
where.
G. E. B.: I'm in love with GER
tain fellow and living with an
other. Now, this fellow says he
wants to marry me and I wish to
know if that would be the sensible
thing for me to do or not?
Ans: A change right now isn't
advisable. Give the matter due
consideration before making up
your mind. 1t would prove to your
advantage to discuss the matter OF
marriage with the man you are
with. If he doesn't approve, then
choosing the other man would be
the best thing for you if you think
you love him. 1t is indicated to me
that you will have your child in

your possession this year.
M. A. L.: I am wondering if my
present condition is due to unfair
ness and do you have any sugges-
tons?
Ans: No, your physical cOndi-
ton isn't the cause of someone try
ing to hurt you. You should go i'm
mediately and consult with a good
doctor and begin a series of treat
ments. Stop worrying, if possible.
N. M. G.: Help me. I just can't
love a lying, gambling, drinking
husband and l want to know what
to do. He won't work and he goes
with women. What must do?
Ans: There seems to be but one
choice for yOu-make him do bet
ter or get out. You are the sole
support of your family now and if
he gets out it will be one less to
worry about. Give him his walking
papers and let him know if he
wants to do better and begin sup
porting your family; he may re-
turn.
M. S.: Why did this man l met
a few weeks ago write me imme-
diately after he left here to send
him some money? l didn't send it
but have written him twice. What
will become of it?
Ans: This fellow wasn't inter-
ested in you, he was interested in
what he could get out of you. You
used the best of judgment when
you failed to send him the money.
If he was so interested in you,
don't you know that he would have
answered your letters? He had
already reached HIS HOME when
he wrote for money, so that is
proof enough that he was pulling
your leg.

MT. OLIVET BAPTIST CHURCH
Rev. C.. B. Wheeler. Pastor

awe W Ds w ASOASAS L ooGOA
Pastor Wheeler's discourse for
last Sunday morning was delivered
from the sixth chapter of John and
a part of the 68th verse, "To whom
shall we go?" He stated that man
must have someone to whom he
can go. Man needs someone who
can lift him above circumstances,
death and sin. Eternal life can
not be obtained through wealth,
position or honor, but God has the
words of eternal life," said the
Rev. Wheeler. "a Sin Worse Than
Crucifying Christ" was the sub
ject of the pastors Sunday evening
sermon.
Next Sunday is Bring a Sim
ner Day" at Mt. Olivet. Every
member of the church is expected
to bring at least one sinner to the
Sunday morning service.
You will enjoy the music rem
dered by the choir at both morn
ing and evening services. The Mt.
Olivet choir will be heard over ra-
dio station KSTP Saturday at
p. m. We wish to announce that
the December Calender Club, cap
tanned by Mr.. Harvey Hopkins,
ST., was the winner in the financial
drive which ended on the 18th.
Spiritual development enables
one to face life fairly and square
ly with courage to practice the
teachings of Jesus daily at work
or at play, in the home, school
church or in the community at
large.

HiIImun's Insistence on Labor Clause in
Contracts Is Busis of Controversy

ment with Mr.. Ford. A year later
Mr.. Knudsen became vice president
and production manager of Chevro-
let, the principal Ford rival in the
low-priced> automobile field, and
competitor between the two has been
keen ever since.
General Motors is unionized, and
If Mr.. Knudsen was acting for
that company he probably would
like nothing better than for the
Ford Co. to be compelled to do
likewise. But Mr.. Knudsen's job
now is the production of a maximum
of defense materials, and he is said
to believe that accentuation of in
dustrial conflict, such as inevitably
would result from an effort by the
Government to force all plants en-
gagged in defense production to ac-
cept unionization, would seriously
retard production
AS one of Mr. Knudsens associates
paraphrased his attitude, it is that
You can't fight two wars at the
same time"
OHucTiylHS TTODleH.
The underlying problem that con-
fronts Mr.. Roosevelt in this situa-
ton is best indicated by recalling
Mr.. Ford's battle with Gen. johnson.
The N. r. A. then sought to "regi-
ment" the automobile industry by
requiring it to establish uniform
wages prices for its products and
the like. The companies fell in with
the plan willingly, excepting Mr.
Ford. Just as he had been lone wolf
always in the ndustry-refusing to
join in associations or even in auto
mobile exhibits with his competitors
he resisted the Government at
tempt to compel Standardization of
his industrial practices.
Gen. johnson Cracked down" by
obtaining ukase from President
Roosevelt, forbidding purchase of
any Ford cars by Government de-
partments so long as the company
refused to sign up under the blue
eagle.
AS time went on, however, it be-
came evident that the Government
was suffering from this blacklist
ing" more than Mr.. Ford. Govern
ment departments complained that
the cost of automobiles had risen
above their available appropriations.
The general public on its side de-
cided Mr.. Ford was working to keep
prices down, and he was flooded
with orders oppOrTinoIv
A delicious touch was supplied
| when it leaked out that President
Roosevelt had invited Mr.. Ford to
the White House for weekend visit
to talk things over, and Mr.. Ford
had declined Mr.. Ford's associates
said he took the position that he
could not place himself in the at
titude of dickering with his Govern
ment on mere matter of dollars
and cents and that this construc-
ton inevitably would be placed on
any visit he might make to Wash
/ lngton so long as the prohibition
/ against purchase of his cars lasted.
Following ruling by Controller
General CcCarl some months later,
which questioned the legality of the
Government's refusal to accept the
| lowest bids on automobile orders,
the anti-Ford ban was quietly
dropped and his cars have been ac-
cepted equally with those of other
manufacturers ever since, that Is.

companies which have a divided
ownership and large boards of direc-
tors to deal with.
The trouble arose solely from in
sistence by Sidney Hillman, associ-
ate director of production, that COM
pliance with orders of the National
Labor Relations Board be required
as condition of contracts granted
to the Ford Co.
William S. Knudsen, chief of the
production set-up, is resisting thi&
action for the reason, as stated in
his recent speech in New York, that
Congress has not directed that all
or any part of these other acts
(plainly referring to the National
Labor Relations Act) be written into
Government contracts and the con-
sidered decision not to do SO is as
affirmative an indication of Con-
gressional intent as is the direction
for inclusion of the Walsh -Healy
Act"
The pressure behind Mr.. Hillman,
of course, comes from the United
Automobile Workers Union, which
long has been striving to organize
the Ford plant and would like to
have the Government use its emer-
gency defense powers as a Club"
to this end.
Grant Protested by Hillman.
Specifically the controversy re-
lateS to a contract for construction
of 1900 quarter-ton bantam fight
ing trucks, recently allotted to the
Ford Co. by the War Department.
Mr.. Hillman protested this grant
but, War Department officials say,
not until after a letter had gone
out to the Ford Co. virtually con-
firming the contract: The depart
ment said yesterday the work was
going ahead, indicating the contracts
had been arranged.
In view of the fact that contracts
totaling we'll over $100 900 900 previ-
ously had been closed with the Ford
Co. without inclusion of the N. l..
R. B. compliance provision it ap-
| pears that Mr.. Hillman seized upon
the much smaller and less vital truck
order to create a test case Some
of Mr.. Hillman's associates are 60
ing so far as to suggest that Presi-
dent Roosevelt exercise his authority
to take over the Ford plant if it
refuses to accept the controverted
contract provision.
Mr.. Kudsen, on his side, is the
last man to be suspected of over
friendliness to Mr.. Ford. For many
years Mr.. Knudsen was an employe
of the Ford Co. His resignation in
1921 was attributed to disagree

wholly on the side of those who are
in revolt against them? Ought we
not rather to seek a way to remove
such offenses and make life itself
clean for those who will share
honorably and cleanly in it?"
There may be celebrations of
birthday anniversaries better calcu-
lated to perpetuate the memory of
our past Presidents of the United
States, as, for instance, in the read
ing of Washington's farewell ad-
dress, but it is doubtful whether
anything Woodrow Wilson ever
wrote will live as long as his own
farewell message penned for a
magazine at time when the spirit
of the mad 20s was to pay little
heed to words of caution which now,
only II years later, constitute the
very theme of worldwide discussion.
