MARKING TIME

Many members of Congress who
were defeated in November cleo
tions are unwilling to participate
in framing controversial legisla-
ton. Democrat-leaders take the po-
sition that all legislation that in
terferes with the Presidents au-
thority should be held up until the
new Congress goes into power.
They say that it is better to let the
President and the Administration
handle all military matters their
own way, for the present.
AS a matter of fact one finds a
very little politics in operation in
Washington at this time. This in
action finds the Senate and House
greatly disturbed about many prob
lens, such as the shortage of fuel
oil in homes, and many complex
questions that have resulted from
Executive orders creating new
Cars to control various aspects of
our wartime economy.
The job of trying to re-establish
a new balance of power between
Congress and the President has
been laid aside until

"DAY.TO.DAY LABOR POLICY

One of the best-considered analy-
ses of this country's labor policy
comes to us in an address made last
week before the War Congress of
American Industry by Raymond S.
Smethufst, counsel to the National
Association of Manufacturers.
This war has not, as most of us
hoped, made our serious domestic
problems vanish. Not only do the
old problems remain, Mr.. Smet-
hurst declares, but new ones have
been created.
In labor delations, war brought
forth the promise from union lead
ers for the cessation of strikes.
Yet strikes, slowdowns, boycotts,
and racketeering still occur. Last
year two union groups were COM
peting with each other; we now
have three" These, succinctly put,
are signs of the times.
- Not only is there disorder in per-
formance, but the very basic poll
cies of our labor relations policies
are changing so constantly as to
become obscure to the nation at
arge.
There is a great deal of govern
nent Intervention, yet it comes not
rom the legislative branch but
rom the administrative-a branch
judicial and impartial.
The War Labor Board, for exam
to settle labor dis
)utes and not to make national
abor policy-in awarding mainten-
lnce of membership clauses con-
;istently has, in effect, established
policy which it proceeds to fol-
ow in every case regardless of in
lividual merits.
Policies of this sort, determined
~ the facts in single case and
applied to many, do nothing to help !
he cause of industry-labor cooper
ltion, and go a long way in spread
ng antagonism and confusion.

UNTIL THE BELLS RING

Methods of combating fires set
by iHcendiary bombing have under
gone drastic change. This is be-
cause incendiary bombs are war
weapons and war weapons are con-
stantly changing. Present fire
bombs usually contain delayed ex-
plosives which detonate long after
impact. Former practices in hand
ling these missiles are exceedingly
dangerous because they require a
close approach by the fire fighter.
Director James M. Lands of the
Office of Civilian Defense, observes
that: use of a jet of water en-
ables the operator to work at
much greater distance than the
short range methods employing
sand, other smothering agents, or
spray of water. Sand in the form
of bags or mats cannot be depend
ed upon, because these bombs, up
on explosion, have a greater frag-
mentation effect than the explo-
sive incendiary bombs formerly
used. The public should be warned
against the use of all such smother
agents as bomb extinguishing'
powders; also against such devices
as scoops, grabs, and snffers. They
are entirely without merit and may
endanger the lives of persons who
depend upon them. The use. of
spray and sand is no longer rec
commended because the possibility
of augmentation makes it too dam
gerous to approach the bomb suffi-
ciently close to apply them"
A direct stream of water is now
recommended as the best means
of controlling an incendiary bomb
An ordinary garden hose is suit
able, but stay as far away as poss-
ible and assume a crouching OF
prone position behind the best avail
able cover.
Enemy raids are a constant poss-
ibility. Vigilance can not be per-
mitted to fluctuate with the war
news. Remember a raid may come
when it is least expected. Until the
bells of armistice begin to ring,
he public, as well as auxiliary fire
men and wardens, must remain
grimly alert.

NATIONAL RATIONING
WILL NOT HAMPER
SALVAGE CAMPAIGN

In response to request by the
General Salvage Branch of the Con.
servation Division to clarity the
effect of the nationwide extension
of gasoline rationing on the sal
wage effort, the Office of Price Ad-
ministration has emphasized that
final decisions on the issuance OF
supplemental rations were in the
hands of local boards, operating
under the provision of Ration Or
der No. sc.
Present rationing regulations al
low for the issuance of supplement
tai rations where genuinely need
ed to perform duties vital to the
success of the salvage effort.
The warning was given, how
ever, that an appeal for supplement
tai rations should be made only as
last resort because indiscriminate
appeals will ieopardize the chances
of those who have a genuine need.
At the same time it was pointed
out that much of the worry and
concern over gasoline rationing
stems from the fear that it will
inf1ict more hardship than will ac-
tually be the case.
The following is a summary of
the type of gasoline ration avail
able at the present time for We
hicles regularly engaged in sal
wage work.
In addition to the basic "a"
ration, any person who is .regu-
larly engaged in volunteer salvage
work which necessitates the use of
his automobile and for which his
basic ration is not sufficient, should
apply to his local ration board for
a supplemental ration OH Form
OPA R-535. If he meets the re-
quirements he is entitled to "B"
ration which, together with his
basic "a" ration, will permit him
to drive a total of approximately
$50 miles per month.
Can Obtain Extra Gas
AS of December 1, all trucks are
authorized for gas rations under a
Certificate of War Necessity is
sued by the local offices of the Of
lCC VI OClCloG dlSpOl ldllOH
These certificates authorize the
truck owner to obtain from the
local OPA ration board ration cou-
pons for the amount of gasoline
specified on his Certificate of War !
The amount of gasoline
is usually sufficient to per-
nit him to conduct his necessary
and no more.
If a truck owner is willing to
lonate the use of his truck for
scrap collection purposes, but is
Unable to use any of his regular
gasoline allowances for this pur-
pose, he should appeal to his local
)DT Office for a supplemental, or
emergency" authorization for gas
,line to cover the mileage he ex-
poets to travel while collecting
scrap.

LOOK AGAIN

A poster recently issued to re-
tail merchants by the food ration
ing division of the Office Of Price
Administration, tells the consum-
er in words and pictures how to
get coffee. The merchants are dis
playing these posters in thou
sands of stores throughout the
land. They are doing their level
best to make coffee rationing
little less onerous to the public.
Consumers who become impa-
tient with the red tape in which
necessities of life are now wrap
per, have only to look at the coffee
poster again-the backside. There
they can see a little of the red
tape which the merchant must un-
ravel before he can enjoy the priv
ilege of serving his customers. In
this case it is merely the require
ments to be complied with if the
retailer is to restock a few bags of
coffee. Other requirements which
the merchant must meet if he is to
stay in business are so manifold
and complex that the simplest of
transactions has become a grim
undertaking. Price fixing, quality |
and quantity of goods are all sub
ject to complicated restrictions af-
fixed with heavy penalties for vio-
lations. A $4,000 fine and ten
years in prison is a prominent tag
on most of the laws. The public
seldom sees these evidences of the
growing handicaps on retail dis
tribution. Unexcelled service is
taken for granted, even as modern
mass distribution is taken for
granted.
A lot of acknowledgements hard
work and competence is needed to
keep hundreds of thousands of
clean wholesome merchandising
centers operating at top efficiency.
And anything that slows that eff
cheney unnecessarily, cuts directly
into our standard of living.
This is not to say that wartime
regulations are not essential. 1t is
simlp an expressed hope that the
formidable task of feeding
and clothing the nation will not be
made more formidable by the fail
ure to realize that a smooth work.
ing distribution system is vital to
the war effort.

be no question of this authoriza-
ton being issued, and when the
truck owner receives it, he then
presents it to the local OPA ra-
tion board which provides him
with the coupons necessary to OBJ
tain the specified amount of gas
oline. In other words, the OPA
ration board usually accepts with
out question the recommendations
of the local ODT office.
Tractors are sometimes used to
drag out heavy scrap, particularly
in Alral areas. These machines
come under the "non-highway ra-
tion,"s and if any such machine is
used in salvage work to the extent
that a supplementary ration is
needed, the USDA War Board in
the county should be able to offer
advice as to how to obtain it.
