Steel Contract

Appropos Of the encouraging
statement here quoted from a
steel master. / recall that a re-
sponsible executive of the United
States Steel Corporation told me
quite some time ago that the
Go had scrupulously lived up to
its contract, that the original
arrangement had worked salts
faeteFiilyy.
Workers in more than one in
dustry have voluntarily pledged
themselves not to strike while
the nation faces its present
menace.
My guess is that we are at
this moment, experiencing the
peak of labor troubles. that sober
counsels soon will prevail in ale
most every defense field, that
the preponderating majority Of
honest to goodness American
wage earners will themselves
crack down on mischief-makers
that the government may shortly
find IT isn't necessary to adopt
drastic legislation.
The outlook isn't hopeless.
doesn't justify hysteria. Reason
probably will rule, thus avoiding
compulsion.

part of that job. Tn the first two weeks of their sale, about quarter of billion dollars worth of Defense Bonds and Sav- ings Stamps have been bought. That is not nearly enough. If 1t were enough the government would not have to go out to raise another huge loan at this time by selling ordinary bonds to the banks.
 Once more, let us repeat the advan- tages of the Defense Bond plan. When the government sells bonds to banks, that simply expands the national credit base Imitation Is brought nearer. But when you buy Defense Bonds, you lend your actual money to the government. What you lend is not spent now, and what is not spent does not help to raise prices unduly, which Is another word for irl- flation. Defense Bonds are debt with a double purpose, that is, to keep down spending of excess money, which, too freely spent, tends to force prices up. They cannot depreciate in dollar value, but grow each year in such way that $l00 face value bond bought now for $75 pays out at $l00 ten years hence, or at an appropriate fraction of that any time you need the money. The advantage Of all this is that people will be cashing in those bonds later, at a time when busi- ness and money in circulation are con- tracing. It will be needed then, and its spending will be a national benefit in- stead of national inflationary threat as 1t may be today.
 A quarter of billion dollars Is chicken feed in relation to the vast amounts that must be spent for defense, whether there Is war or not If you're making good money today and many people are, bet ter set some of 1t aside in Defense Bonds postoffice will tell you all about them. The slower the response Is to this effort to get people to invest savings voluntarily, the greater will be the cry for ''com- pulsory savings" or deferred wages" plan on the Keynes model. We still have com plete faith that Americans will prefer to do the job of their own free will.

Waterbury Didn't Do So Bad

All things considered outside perhaps the means and groans of those who had personal axes to grind and from all accounts there number was legion - Waterbury as a whole, when you sum it all up, did not fare so bad in the recent General Assembly. As far as the rank and file of Waterburians are concerned what more could be asked? The city as whole succeeded in getting its charter revision passed, trade school and bonds for the undertaking of several major city projects. All these were of vital importance to the taxpayer.
 Politically speaking, or rather from a patronage point of view, 1t would seem Waterbury did not fare quite so well, in fact, Waterbury's score when totaled up looks like final summary Of no hits, no runs and plenty of errors. We might say In respect to the errors the chief error preceded the legislative ball game by some few months when the majority Of local Democrats refused to see the Hurley handwriting on the wall. The other errors are too numerous to mention.
 Still as we said above, disregarding the disappointment of this one and that one for about every major job the governor or General Assembly had to bestoW, 1t Is remarkable that out of the Welter and WalloW of one of the most hectic sessions of the General Assembly in this history of the state Waterbury managed to get any legislation at all At several times 1t looked extremely doubtful If 1t would. So regardless of the dissatisfaction of the many job seekers Waterbury has that to be thankful for Everyones glad this years session Is over.

Out Into The World

Seldom have classes of students been graduated from the halls of Alma Mater Into the World' by so short step This generation of students has been "in the world" all the time.
 There Is a certain tendency among men of the present mature generation to apol- ogize because the world in which today's students find themselves Is less than a perfect world. In many ways 1t is a male- volent, savage world, Some students seem to resent this. Some older men seem apologetic about 1t.
 Yet every generation must make it's own world. The classes which were being graduated 20 years ago had not had their school days In world which was exactly all beer and skittles. They made brave effort to do something about 1t. Perhaps 1t is too broad to say that they largely failed. Certainly they did not make permanent success They tried, which IS all a person, or a generation, can do.
 There was young man In that other war, young man who didn't relish going into 1t. In fact he had been a pacfist But he went Into the war anyway, and he did very well indeed. His name was Alvin York. At the grave Of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington the other day ne said a significant thing: " What did 1t get you?' they ask. It got me 23 years of living In America. !. we fought that last war to make America safe for democracy and we did, for while. <. !. By our victory we won lease on liberty, not deed to it. Now Adolf Hitler tells me that lease IS expiring. l choose to renew 1t"
 Lets look at 1t that way. The men or 1017-19l8 failed to get a perpetual deed on the old place, and there are leaks in the roof and other badly needed repairs and alterations. But they didn't get evcted and lose the house; they did get lease, with privelege of renewal It Is up to the new generation, If 1t wants to continue to live in the old house (the best house in the world, we still believe) to renew the lease. Any alterations and repairs you graduates may want to make are up to you. Every generation has re- modelled the place considerably, and US become better house every time.
 What did graduates expect, anyway, on becoming fully participating tenants in the national house? A paid-up deed Tn perpetuity and plans all ready for altera- tions? We welcome this years graduates to "the world" They have their job be- fore them-the roof to fix, the new wing to build, old and tattering partitions to tear down. They may even have to renew the lease at the same high price that has been paid for 1t before.
 But it's a grand old house, built on a firm foundation, solid, roomy and com fortable. We've seen just enough of the young people who are becoming full fledged tenants to feel sure they will leave it a bigger and finer house than they find 1t today.

Get Ready to Help

Americans are reciving appeals from TOO different agencies seeking to aid this cause or that, and most of them arc, in varying degrees, entirely worthy of SUD- port. None, however, Is worthy of more universal support than the drive of the United Service Organizations which will begin June 3. This Is the joint drive Of all the major welfare agencies working to provide recreational facilities for soldiers during their off time Soldiers on their free time with nothing to do but to saunter up and down the streets of 8 strange (and often a very smalD town, arc sight which are q perpetual re- proach to our defense effort. America, with all her resources, can do better than this.
 We have been slow to get to grips with the need for clean, decent places to which soldiers can go during their off time. But the problem Is being attacked at last, and the $l0, ,765, 900 to be raised for 330 service clubs near army and navy camps and large defense establishments, Is cer- talnly minimum. Here's cause in which all may join with will.
