BATTLE Of LOCATIONS

In most cases, private build
ing INTEREST," can handle port
Of the job, usually providing
houses and apartments that
will rent to higher paid work
ers For Tow income groups,
government subsidized hous-
ing often has to provide the
shelter. Suppose the split is
$3.50. That means the gov
eminent must provide in this
typicoI, mythical cose some
500 units, perhaps holt to be
permanent, half to be temper
cry, some dormitorjes for
single workers, the rest fam
lily units.
Then comes the battle Of
locations. Where will the city
permit the new housing to 90
up SO that it won't compete
with housing already ovoiI-
obIe2 II the location is on the
other side Of the tracks, what
about public utiIities-sewers,
streets, schools, hospitals,
shopping fociIitieso The mu-
nicjPoIity may be broke and
taxpayers unwilling to assume
another bond issue. The fed
eroI government has TO foot
the bill in that case.
All these housing headaches
ore no exoggerotion. Every
defense or war housing project
must by law be approved by
the President Getting all this
doto ready for submission to
the White House means that
the Federal Public Housing
Authority must prepare core
fuI analyses ond surveys with
their recommendations. These
ore known technically as,
lPR's-LocoI Project Reports.
There's one for every de-
tense critical area in the

UNPLEASANT Suspicious

Even in the midst OF war, one mas
to take time out to marvel at the YER
sotIe John |. Lewis. Never q man to be
bound by consistency, this time he has
achieved the Ultimate in PorodoX he
is eoine-he hopes-tO organize en-
ployers.
In the whole history Of trades un-
ionism, nothing like this ever before has
happened Here is O toP-ronking labor
boss, q man to whom employers have
been lifelong onothemo, deliberately
setting out to organize the backbone Of
American capitalism, the farmers.
He is saying frankly, positively, and
even beIeeerentIy, that he doesn't give
q tinker's damn about the farm labor
ers All he wants is the owners, the
managers, the entrePreneurs who up to
now have been untouchobIe in the
trodes union program.
Mr. Lewis is not organizing the
farmers to work shorter hours them
selves, to give their employees shorter
work weeks, to improve conditions Of
agricultural labor, to promote any Of
those social goals which organized To-
Dor customoriIy demands.
Not at all He wants the employing
formers to obtain q greater profit from
the production and sole OF milk,
through higher prices.
The more one thinks about this lot
est Lewis venture, the more one be-
comes convinced that there is very
black Ethiopian in the woodpjIe.
In dealing with SO devious q mind
os Mr. Lewis, it is not safe to leap at
conclusions. 1t is permissible, however,
to point out q few considerations which
the seIf-procIoined protogonist Of the
nations formers can hardly have mis-
sed.
More than 30 million Americans
live on forms A large proportion Of
these own from one COW to hundreds,
and sell milk. Perhaps an equal num-
Der, in rural villages, depend for their
living upon the formers trade.
There ore close to seven million in
dividuol farms Unlike industry and
commerce, forming is q business which
hos more entrePreneurs than hired
hands.
Being very vulgar, one n1oy point
out tnot in organizing industry the
gravy comes from millions Of workers
rather than from thousands Of owners.
But on farms the reverse is true.
Moreover, being in suspicious mood
today, one notes thot if perchonce Mr..
Lewis had political ombitions-if he
desired either votes for himself or the
control over votes-there are perhaps
ten millions in the hands Of the no.
tons doiry formers, but relatively few
cost by agriculture hired .honds
Perhaps Mr. Lewis, softened by
beotings he hos taken, really hos been
moved by the plight Of the doirymen,
ond for purely unseIfish reasons has
'oId aside his crusade in behalf Of in
dustrioI workers and gone to the form
ers' succor.
Thot could be the answer But from
this corner, it hos oil the odor Of very
unpolotobIe boloney

Unemployment
Benefits Drop To
AH-Time Low

New claims for benefits filed
by unemployed workers in the
Newark area, comprising Lick
ing county decreased to 78, dur
ing September, a drop of 20.4
per cent from August.
This trend was in keeping
with the situation over the en-
tire state in which new claims
fell to an all-time low of 1864,
a decrease of Al per cent from
August, according to report
issued this week by John B. Gill
bert, Deputy of the Bureau of
Unemployment Compensation
here and manager of the New
ark Employment Security Cen
ter.
The number of weeks of un-
employment for which benefits
were paid in this area during
September was ,456, with bene-
fits totaling $17,736.31, a de-
crease of 1913 per cent from Au-
gust. Benefits of $724,514.09
were paid throughout Ohio, a
decrease of 27 per cent from Au-
gust.
Mr.. Gilbert quoted Admins
TRAITOR Herschel C. Atkinson Of
the Bureau as attributing the
statewide decrease in benefits
to the steadily mounting demand
for workers and the Tightening
of restrictions by the Bureau in
allowing benefits to any unem-
ployed persons who fail to ac-
cept other employment.
The average weekly number of
unemployed persons receiving
benefits in this area during Sep
tember was 316. For the state
the average was 14,815 per week
a drop Of 25 per cent from Au-
gust.

Everybody knows | am a reg

most everyone that knows me,

known there are good citizens
who signed up on the Republican
side of the fence because they
had to do something or other if
they wanted to vote-and after
all the important thing in this
good old U. S. A. is to vote, no
matter what your party affilla-
ton may be. 1t doesn't make a
whit of difference if you are
Democrat or Republican, you
still aren't hundred per cent
American until you exercise that
right of franchise, which is one
of the things the lads are dying
for on the battle fields. I'll bet
you can ask Ray Merchant or
Herb Murphy about that, and
they'll agree. SO let's don't for

brought home the week before
which created such a furore.
Yes, it must have meen a bet

preferred a drink Of something
else after a football game, but
what with this coffee shortage,
l really can appreciate a cup of
java. It's the same old story
when you can't get something

Ralph tells me that he is work
ing about seven days a week out

in order to keep the material
rolling out for Uncle Sam.

know he's just as good a sales
