Gov. Phillips OF Oklahoma has termed
the Civilian Conservation Corps and Ma
tional Youth Administration poison to
our boys. The statement came as he
was testifying in Washington before the
Senate Labor Committee on bill to abol-
ish the CCC and the NYA. Senator Nc
Kellar of Tennessee is author Of the pend
ing legislation. Without entering into
the merits of the bill itself we do feel that
the Oklahoma governor was bit unjust
in his criticism. There may be instances
in these services, as in any, where young
sters went astray, but we doubt II any
one would condemn every youth who par
ticipated in them.
On the contrary evidence could be
brought forth to show where they had
contributed materially to the successful
training Of American boys and had
turned them into channels which will
eventually assure them OF sure place IN
everyday life. AS for the services them
selves it goes without saying that both
have in more than one way been real life
savers. Too much can't be said for the
vast amount of good that the CCC has
done in its years of existence. AS con-
tributors to juvenile delinquency we
doubt very much If anyone will accept
the claim.
Right here in Connecticut the accom-
plishments of CCC are many and varied.
The service has saved this state thous-
ands of dollars by permitting much work
to be done in our state forests and parks
that never would have been on account
Of lack of sufficient funds to pay for the
labor involved Reclamation of hurri-
cane areas has been aided by the CCC.
And we don't doubt that the same could
be said for the NYA in its own sphere. Adj
niniStration may have a lot to do with
accomplishment. If so then we are for
unate here in Connecticut that admin
lstration has been consistently good and

Coordination Needed

The news that Dan Gillmor, one-time
publisher of the magazine Friday, was on
the co-ordinator of information's payroll
for time is disconcerting, even though
his connection with that office no longer
exists. Gilmor's theological unity with
the Communist Party has been no secret.
His magazine was literary vehicle for
numerous self-acknoWledged Reds. In 1t
they followed the party line during the
period when Stain was Hitlers buddy
and the Communists were against every
thing for which this country stood.
Friday did all it could to create SYM
pathy for our enemies. Gillmor wrote
signed editorials which contributed to-
ward that end. How, then, did Gillmor
get onto the staff OF so confidential an
agency as Colonel Donovan's? Who put
him there and who kept still about his
known record while he was there?

courageous action, have watched the cost
of living continue to soar.
Figures are boring and can be con4us-
ing. But every time q housewife buys
groceries, or her husband a suit Of
clothes, they have to deal with the UNI
pleasant statistical fact that what they
spent, subtracted from what they did
have, leaves an even smaller remainder
In their pocketbookS or bank account.
The longer we permit initiation to con-
tinue the closer the cost of necessities will
come to eating up all the wage dollars
there are. The family dollar Of pre-War
vintage was worth only 88 cents in this
country in February and Is worth less
today, although the exact measurement
isn't yet available.
The family dollar of pre-war vintage
was worth only 81 cents in Canada and
n cents in Great Britain in January,
the latest month for which figures are
available. But England and Canada had
been involved in about war for more
than two years before we began fighting,
and for year and half before we really
began trying to create a war economy.
Great Britain still is trying toycurb infla-
ton by guerillo methods, striking here
and there and getting nowhere, just
as we are. So long as Canada did like
wise her price level rose gradually but
persistently - just as ours is doing.
Then, as Fred S. Ferguson has told in
his on-the-spot articles, the Dominion
decreed taht after December no price
and no wage should be higher than that
for the base period from September IS
to October II. In November, the last
uncontrolled month, the pre-war dollar
was worth slightly under 81 cents. In
December the dollar was worth full 81
cents and in January slightly more. Price
initiation had been sopped dead in its
tracks, and even set back a few inches.

1t Is or 1t Isn't

The battle of what the outcome OF New
Sritain'S municipal election this week
actually showed, so far as state politics
$ concerned goes merrily on In Re-
publican circles it has been royalty well
coined and hailed as sign Of changing
times here in Connecticut. In Democra-
tic circles it has been hailed as just one
Of those things you have to put up with
now and then. In more or less neutral
circles 1t has been hailed simply as
natural occurrence,
For example, the Hartford Times
which is more or less independent in its
treatment of politics in Connecticut says
THE issues were so largely local that
New Britain's return to the Republican
column is not necessarily evidence OF
statewide trend in favor OF the Republi-
cans as Republican State Chairman j.
Kenneth Bradley so gleefully declares
The Republicans can, and should, win
whenever the Democrats botch their OPP
portunity to serve the public acceptably
and vice versa"
All of which may not comfort retiring
Mayor George Coyle nor cause his sue
cessor Mayor George Quigley to eXult,
but It's Just about factual summation
of what took place this week. Coming
events may cast their shadow, but of late
years 1t has been concluSvely proved
that local. and even in most instances,
state election results fail to portray any
decided national trend. That's little
consolation to parties seeking to build
up morale, but morale should come from
within and not without.
