Information On
Social Security

The QUESTIONABLE which Draft
Boards are nov sending to men whose
names are among the first on the
selective service lists asks for the
social security account numbers Of
these men. If any persons receiving
this form have lost or misplaced their
social security account number cards,
duplicate cards can be obtained from
the Youngstown field office of the So
cial Security Board.
This statement is made by Glenn
II. Pittenger, manager of that field
office Duplicate account cards may
readily be obtained by filling in a
simple application which may be Sc
cured from any post office or through
the Youngstown field office, which is
in the Erie Terminal. Building.
81 strongly urge any young man
who has lost his account number, and
who needs it for his selective service
questionnaire, to be sure he gets a
duplicate of his original social security
number, and not new number, as the
latter practice often delays posting of
wage credits of those who are cover
ed by the Social Security Act" Mr..
Pittenger said.

U. S. Appeals Court Rules
Wdge-Hour Law Is Valid

Boston, Mass.-In the first ruling
of it's kind the United States Circuit
Court of Appeals held that the Fed
eral wage-hour law was constitutional.
The unanimous ruling came in the
case of the Eastern Sugar Associates
of Puerto Rico, involved in dispute
with their employees. The company
charged that the employees were not
affected by the law and that the
law was unconstitutional.
In the decision, upholding decision
of the Federal District Court of San
Juan, Puerto Rico, the Circuit Court
ruled that all employees of Puerto
Rican sugar mills except those en-
gagged in planting, cultivatng and
harvesting of sugar cane, are en-
titled to the benefits of the wage
hour law.

adays tends TO the vocal in
demonstration rather than 10
signs. We rather imagine that
if this country were occupied by
an enemy, the Bronx cheer
would be echoing DER land and
sea and getting our patriots IN
plenty Of trouble. The Bronx
cheer is also derisive and is
sound produced by letting the
tongue hang loosely and then
rafting it by exhaling sharply.
The effect is as fallows: "Ploo-
oo-oop."
THEN there is the hawking
Il sound 49, "Haw-aw-awk" -
which is common to Broadway
and is arrived at by roughly
clearing the throat. This is
generally used when a fellow
you do not fancy passes by, and
if he turns suddenly and de-
mands the meaning of the noise
YOU can tap your throat and
humble something about bron-
chitis. 1t would be a highly
tactical noise in case of occupa-
ton by an enemy.
But oddly enough the history
of occupations in this country
indicates that our people found
their greatest weapon in. con-
temptuous silence. This was
especially true Of the South
when the northern troops moved
into its cities.
Instead of open manifesto
tions, the southern men and
women who had 10 remain IN
the cities gave the northern
fellows the old up-country. They
paid as little attention to the
unwelcome visitors as possible
and we are told that silence was
more irksome TO the boys in blue
than if the Confederate folks
had raised their voices in jeers.
Much the same procedure was
followed by the American patri-
OTIS in the Revolutionary War,
and again in the occupations by
the English in the war of 1872.
But in the Revolution. the boys
used TO secretly print and circu-
late pamphlets blasting the Eng
lish and these documents were a
great vexation TO the redcoats.
However, we still hold TO the
Bronx Cheer as the finest of all
irritants. though we suppose in
case OF a Nazi occupation ii
would be well If the cheerer
were a ventriloquist just TO
avoid complications.
