WHAT PRICE
PATRIOTISM?

(From the st. Louis STAR -Times)
Mrs. Ellwood J. Turner, correspond
ing secretary of the Daughters of Co.
lonial Wars, wants a social science
textbook barred from Philadelphia
schools on the grounds that the book
aims to give children an unbiased
point of view" and is therefore "un-
American"
1t is just such blind support of the
Fatherland that has led to the sup
preston in Germany and Russia of
all books save those approved by the
government. 1t is just such phi
losophy which destroys perspective
and prepares the way for dictators de-
manding absolute obedience from
minded citizens.
American history and government
are not so ugly, as Mrs. Turner ap-
parently believes, that children will
become unpatriotic through studying
them effectively.

phlet analyzing 35 plans of stabiliz-
ing industrial employment in the fields
of production, distribution, personnel
and management has been issued by
the National Association of Manu-
facturers.
A. W. Hawkes., chairman of the as
sociation's employment relations COM
mittee, said in a foreword to the re-
port that attempts to "regularize"
employment had achieved marked
degree of success" in many concerns.
He expressed the hope that other COM
panies would find the report of help
in attaining greater employment sta
bility and employe protection.
Among the benefits accruing to en-
ployers through employment regular
ization the committee listed increased
plant efficiency, greater use of plant
and equipment, lower production and
labor costs, avoidance of overtime
penalties during peak periods, elm
ination of expenses incidental to the
examination and training of new en-
ployes, increased versatility and fiexi-
bility of employees.
The committee said that many COM
panies were handicapped in their en-
deavors to keep employment stable by
such factors as style changes, seasonal
fluctuations, dependence on conditions
in other markets or industries, limited
capital or lack Of warehouse facilities
for storing advance inventories.
The report contained 68 cease his
