WHAT WE'RE Up AGAINST

Twenty tons OF cutlery we're recently

Mexico for years.
This shipment was eight months on
the way, across Russio, and then BY
japanese steonner to Monzonillo. Costs
Of such transport, especially consider
ing high wartime Insurance. rotes,
must have long since eoten up any con-
ceivobIe profit. Yet the goods are now
offered the Mexican housewife at prices
lower than those Of Y. S. goods which
merely cross the border. The Gerrnon
government, Of course, obsorbs the loss.
for its own reasons.
This shipment started for Mexico
soon otter the foil Of France. at q time
when Germony was expecting quick
and easy end to the war. II is O cleor
indication of what the United Stotes
will be up ogoinst in its trode relations
with the rest Of the western hemisphere
when the war is over. For if Germany
wins. a whole continent Of Europe will
be producing such goods at labor costs
dictoted by the conqueror. Even it Ser
many loses, its desperate producing
machinery will turn to such cut-throot
methods.
Can anyone doubt the wisdom Of
stimulating by every feasible means our

Another Of his designs is q

of Al Smith and his hard. shelled

ton that his Derby, built in 1922,
started Movietown's craze for
buildings in the shape Of ~gigan-

pumpkins and milk bottles.)

FRESH WHITE COLLARS FOR SALE

Just as there is O bright side even to
affections like appendicitis or tonsil-
Iectony, SO there is q bright side to
some Of the rough ride the American
people has had during the post dozen
years.
Something unhealthy and slyly SUBJ
versive of real Americonism was grow
ing up in the twenties. It was the des-
perote desire Of every fomily to bring
its sons up into white color positions.
This brought q sort Of cleavage Of the
population into two cIosses-those who
wore white collars and those who didn't.
II ever there was folse bosis for
division, that was it. Yet fomiIies slowed
and struggled, denied themselves every
thing, so that their sons might ochieve
q job pushing pencil or pen instead OF
working with their hands. Thousands Of
young men, often Unqualified, fought
their way through college or high school
for no better reason than thot it SEEM
ed to promise later light work at high
pay. ~'re
Thot philosophy was foir neither
to higher education, nor to American
life, nor to the young men. For the
primary purpose Of education ought
not to be to prepore one for good
job" but to bring about q better odiust-
ment Of q man to life, with q greoteF
appreciation Of its rich and varied
phases. Such detectives ore no less vol
liable to q nnochinist than to bank
teller. And under todoy's conditions
the mochinist is more likely to have
tirne and leisure to develop the cultural
side of life than the teller.
People began finding thot out otter
the depression struck Young men and
women with high school educotions or
better found that the white-coIIor Jobs
for which they had planned did not
exist They went into the textile and
steel mills, into the truck eobs ond
shops.
And to the surprise Of many Of
them, they found, first, thot it wasn't
osahods q life as they had been led to
beIievo, and second, tlot they were oil
the better miIl-honds, drivers, OF MD
chinisfs, because Of their education.
So rt
The whole "white-colIor culture" Of
the tWenties is now in disfovor, and the
boom in defense industries now drows
thousands more from desk to loths.
More and more Of the future seems to
be going over to the engineers, the
chemists, the architects, the skilled
workmeh Reot broins and brain work
will always be at premium, but q
white color Just for q white coIlors
sake no longer looks as good as il USED
to. i
Old and ortificioI divisions and
clossficotions are breaking down. ond
q good thing, too, True Anerieons will
weor no mans color but their own. nor
will they be as oreotIy infIusneed IN the
tutureos in the past by Its coief.
