Our boys and girls come out
of school and many of them
fifind no place of employment
to use their trained minds.
This condition is always UNI
pleasant. Sadness, resting
heavily on the hearts of this
small group of men, caused
them to act. After frequent
elaboration, we made our
plans.
There was need for ten
thoughtful, congenial AMI CO.
operative men. We decided to
call this organization "'The
Group Ten Club" Now we are
out to raise money to promote
a business large enough to en-
ploy a great number of our
own people, and especially our
young people. When you
spend your money with the
Group Ten Club you are help
ing to build something that
will benefit the race by first
creating more jobs for them
and at the same time giving
you first class entertainment
for every dollar you spend.

Reports Of Sub

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 7-UP)
Reports of a landing frcm an
enemy submarine near Santa Bar
bara, Cal, were dismissed today by
the western defense command as
unfounded, lessening apprehension
saboteurs might be at work in the
area
1T has been established after an
investigation that there is no
ground for the belief that any
landings were made in the Santa
Barbara area from an enemy sub
marine or other vessel last night,
the army said yesterday.
The army announcement came at
the end of l5-hour full alert

Santa Barbara zone, after civilian

he believed to be submarine sur

20 miles north of Santa Barbara.

SHOULD USE POWERS

There may be those VINO will say
that, if the situation is as grave
as I have stated it to be, I should
use my powers and act now, the
President said.
It can only say" he added, that
! have approached this problem
from every angle, and that l have
decided that the course of con-
duct which I am following in this
case is consistent with my sense OF
responsibility as President in time
of war, and with my deep and un-
alterable devotion to the proces
of democracy"
Mr.. Roosevelt had said previous
ly in a press conference that the
initiation problem was so serious
that there might not be time to
seek remedial legislation. After
lengthy consultation with his ad-
visers, he apparently decided
against acting without first giving
congress an opportunity to do so.
The President in his message to-
day recalled that two points OF
his original seven-point anti-infla-
ton plan-"an adequate tax pro-
gram, and a law permitting the
fixing of price ceilings on farm
products at parity prices"-requir-
ed legislation. He said he regretted
having to call to the attention OF
congress the fact that neither OF
these two essential pieces OF legis-
lation has as yet been enacted in
TO law
THAT delay has now reached the
point of danger to our whole econ
omy," he told congress.
Our entire effort to hold the cost
of living at its present level is now
being sapped and undermined by
further increases in farm prices
and in wages, and by an ever-con-
tinuing pressure on prices result
ing from the rising purchasing
power of our people
The President, stressing that
war calls for sacrifice" for all
Americans. said that IF we are TO
keep wages effectually stabilized
it becomes imperative. in fairness
to the worker, to keep equally
stable the cost of food and cloth
ing and shelter and other articles
used by workers.
The President described present
farm price ceilings Of 10 per cent
of parity as an unfair privilege
. for agriculture.
Our policy with respect TO farm
products should be guided b. three
principles: first. 10 hold the line
against inflationary price increas-
es. Second, to get the required
production of necessary farm pro-
ducts. Third. TO maintain the prin-
cipIe of parity for agriculture.
Agricultural ceilings should be
permitted at either parity or at the
price levels which prevailed at
some recent date. whichever is
higher"
The President pointed out that
annual wage and salary disburse-
ments have gone up II per cent
since 1899. rising at the rate Of
more than a billion dollars a
month"
He said wages now must be sta
bilized because wage rates consti-
tute "one of the most important
elements" in war production costs
and are inseparable from any pro-
gram 10 stabilize the cost of hv-
ing.
The national income has been in
creasing at the rate OF per cent
"a month since Jan. l, l94l. Mr..
Roosevelt said the result was that
people compete more and more for
the available supply of goods; and
the pressure OF this great demand
compared with the small supply
