John F. McGrath

waterbury was shocked q second time
over the week end in the death of for
mer Judge of the City Court, John F.
McGrath, member of one of the city'S
best known families A few hours earlier
the death of former Judge of Probate
Dennis ]. Slavin, was announced. Again
the people of Waterbury heard with deep
regret the passing of brilliant member
of the bar and former judge
Mr.. McGrath's career US a practicing
attorney and official of the city court COW
cred thirty-one years. He likewise rep
resented the 18th district in the state
Senate in the 1913 session. His years
as an official of justice we're marked by
a keen knowledge of the law and deep
interest in his fellowman. His scholaS-
tic and legal background fitted him for
distinguished career in court procedure.
Possessed of an alert mind and ability
to reckon squarely his judgments and
announcements were not only fair and
adequate but in many instances classic
in their delivery.
In his knowledge of the law and men
Mr.. McGrath made a reputation for him
self that rated him as one of the city's
leading legal lights. Added to this was
an extraordinary sense of humor. He
was splendid raconteur and as master
of ceremonies or after-dinner speaker,
outstanding in the community.
AS prosecutor and judge, Mr.. McGrath
possessed those talents that make fair
jurist. In this respect he was an &C
knowledged able official. His wide circle
of friends and associates in law were pro-
foundly shocked to learn of his sudden
death

law was such q measure. Millions Of
American citizens expressed their view
Of that law by breaking It, Similarly,
the existing maze Of meat regulations,
under which too often the housewife
comes armed with her points only to find
that the dealer has no meat to sell her, is
widely regarded as both ill-conceived and
as impossible of enforcement
When large numbers of law abiding
people like the Americans find 1t neceS-
Sary to break some law as a rule, rather
than as an exception, it is certain that
there is something wrong with that par
ticular law. Serious consideration should
be given to substituting for the mass of
regulations that now strange the live
stock and meat industry, the highly
simple but fundamentally sound Meat
Management Plan which has been worked
out by all of the groups in the livestock
and meat industry - producers, feeders,
packers, wholesalers and retailers in
the light of vast experience and practical
knowledge These groups do not ask for
higher prices for meat The present price
level is sufficient to provide everyone in
the industry with moderate but reas-
enable profit
But ill-conceived and ill-executed reg
ulations have upset the industries eStab-
lished methods of operation and made it
impossible at times for particular groups,
like the cattle feeders of the Corn Belt
and the packers to operate without loss.
These situations would take care of them
selves, however, under the Meat Manage
ment Plan which in brief would limit the
demand for each type Of meat to fit the
supply actually available. If the demand
gets too high, the point value of that type
of meat would be reduced. If the supply
for any type of meat should exceed the
demand, including Army and Lend-Lease
needs, the point value would be reduced
and butchers would lower prices so that
people would buy more.
Once such plan is in effect, the Amer
lean public would respect and cooperate
actively in the enforcement of rationing
regulations. Only the small criminal ele-
ment would then remain in the black
market and the police would know how
to curb them. We learned under Pro-
hibition that you cannot arrest an en-
tire population. We are learning the
same lesson under the inept and need
leSsly complex meat control system that
is in effect today. The Meat Management
Plan will stop lawbreaking in the sale OF
meat and it would enable producers and
feeders of livestock to concentrate on the
job of increasing the nations meat sup
ply instead of spending much OF their
time as they now are forced to do in try
ing to figure out how to operate under
Senseless government directiveS which
theorists send them in increasing
numbers

Rubber Setback

Grubs of the Phyllophaga hogardi -
the June beetle to you-have interfered
with what from the emergency viewpoint
was our most promising experiment in
the production of natural rubber Those
gr11bS have forced Shada, Haitian gov
eminent agency cooperating with the
Rubber Development Corporation, to
abandon one while division of It's project.
Shada is working with cryptastegia, and
has produced strain of that weed which
can be tapped at the age of six months
to produce 300 pounds of rubber an acre.
The contract calls for seeding of 10000
acres by the end of this month. The area
infested by the June beetle had just been
set out, but, nevertheless, would have
been producing latex commercially
before mid-1944. Shada is going to do
its best to fulfill the contract terms by
the end OF the year, but in all probability
cannot.
There are lost not merely the time,
the work done in planting the st. Marc
division, and the seedlings used, but also
the use of land which had been cleared
for the purpose and the time that will be
required to prepare other land On the
basis of reasonable expectations Shada
had promised to turn over 5000 tons of
hA&VAA al AAObCA 11CAU yCd1 c1llu ClOSC W W.
600 tons in 1945 This would have been
valuable out of all proportion to its
weight because for many vital war pur-
poses synthetic, of which there probably
will be plenty next year, is highly unsatis-
factory without leavening of natural
rubber.
Moreover, this cryptostegia rubber was
expected to be much less costly than that
from South America Taking Rubber
Developments mot more than cents"
estimate at face value for the Amazon
product, it appears that Haitian rubber
will cost not more than 62 cents a
pound and may reasonably be expected
to cost as little as IS cents, low price
these days though not competitive I'M
der peacetime conditions.
The setback, therefore is very unfor-
tunate. Also it serves to emphasize how
much trouble nation can get into when
it dozes complacently until the whole
house is afire, and then tries to put out
the blaze with water pistol.
We are paying plenty, in other fields as
well as in connection with rubber, for our
long refusal to look international facts in
the face. Let's hope we have learned a
lesson.

CIVIL WARS SOLEMN ECHO
(Hartford Times)

NE1dI OlOlo AllCo(
The death of the last Civil War
veteran in this area, Nathan Coe, at
the remarkable age of nearly 80
years, is a reminder that the con-
flict between the states Is, indeed,
receding into the dimming past. Two
World Wars have so overwhelmed
public memory and imagination with
fresh events, that the steadily thin
ming, and now virtually ended, line
of Civil War veterans has almost
unnoticeably vanished from public
view.
Yet there are many persons now
living who recall seeing considerable
units of the men in blue march
through city streets in Memorial
Day parades. During the early dec
AIDES of this century their number be-
came smaller and their step less
sprightly. Then the automobile re-
lieved them of the starin Of march,
ing and they rode near the head OF
the parade in open cars, their color
full military apparel, adorned with
ribbons and medals, an inspiring
sight. In more recent decades only
closed cars were used, providing
protected transportation for feeble
men.
In very recent years the men in
blue were hardly To be found among
the van units Of the parade, they
had become so few Now the last of
their number, except one, in Connec-
ticut, has gone to join that large
company of brave men who in the
COS, as millions of their successors
have done in more recent wars,
went forth to give their all, If neces-
sary, that their country might be
preserved for their children.
OF the veterans of the Civil War
1t can truly be said that they fought
not in vain. The Union was pre-
served. Secession thereafter became
unthinkable. In freeing the slaves,
they opened new chapter In Amer
lean history 1t Is only partly written
as yet and fulfilment Of the consti-
tutional pledge made to the Negro
nearly 80 years ago awaits white
recognition Of the full meaning OF
American citizenship and opportuni-
ty without distinction because Of the
color Of ones skin. Mr.. Goes death
is a solemn reminder that here is
still an unfinished task.

Not a Nation of Lawbreakers

The ugly shadow of the black market
lies across the nations meat trade today.
Cattle are bought above ceiling prices by
illicit slaughterers. Meat is being sold
above ceiling prices in too many cases,
with or without the ration points that
every buyer must turn over to his dealer
under the law. Not since the days of
Prohibition has lawbreaking been so prev
alent as 1t repeatedly is today in meat.
The typical American wants to be and
tries to be a law abiding citizen. But
when some law is clearly impossible OF
enforcement or clearly seems unneces-
sary and unjustified, We find that viola

too much for the Iranians.
It Is a proof of mems progress
toward true civilization that friend
ship between big nations is grad
ually becoming more valuable to
small nations than big power
rivalry. The declaration on Iran,
issued by the American, British and
Russian leaders at Teheran, Is a
guarantee of, rather than threat
to, the future rights of the Iranians.
Not only is Iranian independence
promised; Iran is to become a MEM
Der of the community Of nations
working to establish peace, security
and prosperity after the war in ac-
cordance with the principles Of the
Atlantic Charter Trans ability to
hold its own in company with its
mighty friends will be bolstered
by its association with other small
states within a framework Of gen.
eral security.
This Is not a mirage. Even the
much abused, and at-last-betrayed,
League of Nations offered small ma
tons something they had not known
before: the opportunity to make
their collective weight felt in world
councils, where their individual
weight would have counted for next
to nothing Recognition Of this adj
vantage helped to account for the
loyalty of many of the small nations
to the league, even when that loyalty
entailed risks.
In re-opening the vistas of collec-
tive security for small nations,
Teheran has contributed not only to
the confidence of Iranians in safer
future. but to the hope of all small
nations. This will indeed become
better world as small peoples can
find their good in the amity instead
of the enmity among the great.

Budget estimates for the next
fiscal year are not yet public, but
here is one estimate which will
come as a blow to farmers.
The famous "Triple-A", which
saved the farmers in 1888 and has
always been synonymous with the
New Deal is about to be cut dras-
tically. 1t is the Roosevelt Adj
ministration which is making the
cut, not Congress.
In fact, Budget Bureau first
proposed, in closed-door hearings,
to eliminate AAA altogether. This
proposal was ruled out, but Budget
then made a so per cent slash
from $4o0,O00,000 to $500 000,-

| pen If all the war; time controls,
in seeming contradiction to the hal
lowed law OF supply and demand,
we're suddenly removed and an alb
solutely free market were permitted
10 determine price levels. The
chances are thousand to one that
the people now yelling the loudest
Tor removal OF farm price controls
would be the first to come scream
ing into the market place demand
,, ing that the guv'ment do something
quick to bring order out of chaos.
That very condition is to be found
today on the hog market. OPA
had set a Chicago base price of
S14.75 per hundredWeight on live
hogs. Although the mere act Of
setting price of any kind on hogs
or anything else is fundamental
violation of the law of supply and
demand, in this case it was consid-
cred all right by the hog raisers be-
cause it guaranteed them fair
return on their labor and feed costs
and an inducement to go ahead
and raise a lot of pigs, for which
there was a heavy demand justify
ing this price.
PIG PROBLEM
But now it happens that all the
pig raisers having bought their
hogs to market weight during the
summer, offer them for sale about
the same time. The slaughter houses
are damned. They can't kill and
process the pork fast enough to
clear their pens. SO, in an effort
to make the farmers hold their
hogs off the market, the packers cut
the price 81 q hundredweight, fol-
lowing the hallowed old law of sup
ply and demand.
This causes the hog raisers to
Squeal louder than the proverbal two
pigs under the gate, and naturally
the law Of supply and demand I'M
der such circumstances is the most
unpopular and unwanted law Of the
land, even If 1t were divine enough
to be considered an eleventh COM
mandment.
No, what's wanted, obviously, is
just a law OF supply and demand
that will work one way only-al-
ways to give the seller the best end
of the bargain. That is the SELL
er's conception Of the law Of sup
ply and demand. The buyers con-
ception of good law OF supply
and demand is something that will
always rock the seller.
U,0YYS~RH N, a e,vx NON 0~a
When government agency or
anyone else steps in to harmonic
these two points of view, 1t takes
a darn sight more than the wisdom
of Solomon to keep everybody happy.
There, in a bre 18th, you have the
reason for the unpopularity of OPA.
1t is unquestionabiy the most thank
less and the mosJ hopeless job In
the world.
But is that any reason for CIV
ing up on the effort? Common
sense should tell anyone that the
answer to that one is an emphatic
mol" Even the spokesman for the
livestock growers lobby, who came
to Washington in an ugly mood
and for no other purpose than
to defeat subsidies, admit openly
that any sudden removal of con-
trolls now In force would be ruinous
TO everyone. So again the question
comes back to the human selfish
desire to have a law of supply and
demand that will work in only one
way-to maintain high prices for
the seller even when there is
surplus supply tending to force
prices down, and to let prices rise
when there Is scarcity demand.
And 1t just can't be done.

One, conducted by Representa-

Maryland, cost the taxpayers
nothing. The other, conducted
by Senator McCarran of Nevada,
another Democrat, cost the tax
payers $25, 1000 to say nothing Of
the time of many government en-
ployes. But it was big help
to McCarran's political future.
The D'Alesandro investigation
was into living and health condi-
tons in the nations crowded,
wartime capital. Although
Senate committee got $4,000 for
q similar investigation, the Bal
timore congressman never asked
for a penny, paid for incidental
expenses out of his own pocket
and insisted that his colleagues do
likewise. He engaged no array OF
legal or clerical talent, but used
the regular staff of the House
District of Columbia Committee.
Afterwards, u. S. Surgeon
General Parran said Of D'Ales-
andres report: ut Is the most
comprehensive, vigorous, inter-
eSting report have ever seen

land released by railroads under

ranges, conservation of wildlife,
and the future of fishing.
Almost anyone who had an axe
to grind came before Senator
McCarran, ana his ong-extended
hearings at public expense have
been q great aid politically.
Among other things, they helped
him get back to his own State of
Nevada for almost every hear

Senator was not too far from

For instance, in June. 1941,
he scheduled hearings OH Ely

Der, October and November of
that year, he toured through
Wyoming, Utah, Arizona and
held two hearings in Reno and

While all this makes for nice

government officials busy trotting
all over the country, using up
valuable time and the taxpayers
money in order to answer all the
things McCarran wants answered.
