boys and girls, and as leaders in
the community. Our children
should in no way suffer from the
lack of quality or quantity of ed
ucation during this emergency
1t is a grave responsibility, and
one that we should consider con-
tinuously.
1T is time" said Mr.. Greene,
That we follow up our discus
sions with action. We have been
most verbal, but words are not
enough. Action is imperative. !"
Teachers need to get together not
only among themselves, but with
others in the community, to get
to the bottom of these problems,
to understand them, and with the
combined help of all, to actually
revise our educational effort to
meet them. q" ~ "T' s*!o.
Some of the outstanding of
these problems, as brought out
by Miss Paulukas, were those of
the nursery schools, adult educa-
ton, making education active and
broader than the mere use of
textbooks allow, technical train
ing, a more inclusive health pro-
gram, and a thorough training in
government and civic RESPONSE
bility.
''The whole problem of educa-
ton in a postwar world is a diff
cult one to handle, and as impor-
tant as the problems themselves
are, are the means of solving those
problems. In a democracy we
realize that we are not striving
for a blueprint to be handed
down from above It is true that
some overall plan must be de-
vised, but this must be modified
drastically to fit local needs and
conditions. The important thing
is to get the people of the COM
munity to work together, defin-
ing the problems that face the
education of the youth, and
through discussion and thorough
understanding, to reach reason
able conclusion in the solution of
them. It is only through such
planning that we can hope to
rpreserve our democratic way of
life" the speaker declared.
ct is unreasonable to hope
stated Mr.. Greene, ''That we can,
as soon as the war is won, return
to those conditions that existed
prior to Pearl Harbor. The
world has become a much small
Ter place, and we have learned
that we cannot disregard what
other peoples do. Our children
must learn to understand the rest
of the world and its problems,
and to realize that to keep liber-
ty and equality for ourselves, we
must be willing to share it.'

As a result the new Congress, it is predicted, will attempt to pass regulations in the form of reactionary program which probably will in cude the following ,'s
 Suspension of the 40-hour week provision of the wage-hour law, with payment for more than 40 hours in war bonds
 Creation of new War Labor Board, appointed by and respon si ble to Congress, not to the President, and with power closely restricted.
 Outlawing of the closed shop and other such items in contracts.
 Revival of the no-strike bill by Rep. Howard Smith certainly no friend of labor
 It ,may not be too late for labor to take the initiative and propose it's system of regulation The labor unions might succeed in selling Congress on the following:
 Outlaw ali strikes in which there is issue between employer and employee-knock out juris- dictional and sympathy strikes.
 Establish union financial responsibility by limit ing initiation fees American has to pay an unreasonable amount for his right to work if he wants to-

WAR AND LABOR

Labors neglect in not voluntarily increasing its responsibility along with it's power has succeeded in swinging 9l percent of the American people toward the conservative side of demanding stricter control of labor unions
 Labor's power has grown with leaps and bounds in recent years Back in 1883, union membership thought to be large when 100000 members held cards. But after years of organizing, union card holders have increased to 100000 in 1887 100000 in 1939 and in 1942 rolls had grown to take in 12000000
 The labor unrest which came with the days when the unions were growing almost too fast to stop and take stock is largely forgotten today But continuation of the unrest and friction during time when the nation is trying to win is dangerous
 War has brought about changes in many things Labor leaders would have been wise to pull in their horns and settle down to the job with what they had after December ', 1941
 For the most part the large majority of workers followed along this line Many unions instituted strike policies. Many expressed a willingness to let this civil rest until another
 Some labor leaders, however opportunists They saw in the scarcity of labor chance to bar gain and get more power-even at the risk of stall ing the machine

HOROSCOPE "The stars incline
 but do not conpeP'
WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 20

Benefic aspects rule today which should be most fortunate for mer- chants, bankers and lawyers. Morn- ing hours are best for starting any movement or enterprise.
 HEART AND HOME. This is not fortunate sway under which to employ any one in the household It is time to study wise home rou- tines and to practice economics that will be hardly noticed by mem- bers of the family. In year of tremendous changes gradual alter ations in menus and daily pro- grams will be easily accepted. Speech should be guarded lest fears or depressing ideas should be ex- pressed. The morning hours are favorable to accomplishment
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Under this configuration judgment may not be reliable. It is well to delay chang ing investments or selling securities. General trade should be fair sti- mulated by war exigencies. Farm CTS are well directed and have the forecast of extraordinary gains this year In various parts of the coun- try severe weather may cause losses to stock raisers. End-of- the month bargains this year should be unu- sually alluring because of appre- hensions regarding future stock de- pletions, but unnecessary buying is forbidden by the stars as well as the Government
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Although travel for pleasure is under ban there will be many patrons of win ter resorts, it is foretold This month may give cause for criticism re- garding tourist inclinations, but de- spite blackouts and other precau- tions Florida and California will attract health seekers. The seers predict the need for men and wo- men engaged in heavy responsibili- ties due to war service. The stars appear to presage evidence that the American way of life will not be easily relinquished.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIR
 Midwinter hazards of war will be varied as conflict becomes more continuous. Battles that will stand out in history will be added to the
  brilliant campaigning of the United Nations, which will gain in scope at this time Gathering momentum of forces from the United States will prove as amazing as the feats accomplished in production. the seers prophecy. Generals will de- monstrate supreme ability in strat- egy and admirals will continue to prove their courage and resource fulness, while our air forces perform wonders.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of surprises following apprehensions, trying jour- neys and final success.
 Children born on this day pro- bably will be original and independ- ent, also to work out unusual car eers and fortunate in winning fame.

This is what Governor Broughtor plans to get started in North Caro- lima.
 Meanwhile, the Wyoming experi- ment will use the Krupp sponge iron process, developed in Germany, and later a new process. Meanwhile, also, Senator O'Mahoney is working out a plan for private capital to fiance sponge iron plants without going through the bottleneck of the RFC's Defense Plants, Inc. He figures that with steel desperately needed for ships. planes and rubber factories and with bank balances accumulated. now is the time to get a new diversified iron industry started throughout the country.

CEILING FOR STARS

Meeting secretly with the Treas ury Department, some of the biggest film executives in Hollywood have beeps trying to work out com promise on the s25,OOO salary ceil- ing. If consumated. it may set a standard for other industries.
 The plan proposed is to pay screen star s672Oo, which after taxes would leave each star a net of S25.000 Then all over this amount would be deposited in escrow.
 For instance Claudette Colbert, who makes S350000 annually. would be paid s67 200, then the balance of S282,800 would be deposited in es- crow for year At the end Of year. deductible expenses would be subtracted, or any increased taxes, then the balance would go to the Government.
 The Treasury has accepted this plan, but the film stars have not.
 The stars see the S25,000 limit as ali excellent opportunity to jump their contracts They say that if they aren't going to work for money any more, but merely for love ot art. then they want something to say about their art
 They want, for instance. to pass judgment on their stories, their supporting casts, their directors Hedy Lamar, for instance, might want to say whether or not she was to play opposite Errol Flynn or

BIG STEEL vs. SPONGE IRON

After weeks of hammering and with the help of Secretary Ickes, Wyoming's Senator O'Mahoney fin- ally has brought about the installa- tion of a sponge iron plant at the University of Wyoming
 Though long way from eastern steel centers, this plant may have revolutionary con S quence. For Senator OMahoney and Ickes' Bu- reau of Mines. experts contend that sponge iron will prove that iron ore can be refined and reduced at the mouth of any small iron mine in the United States. It will also solve the crucial shortage of steel
 In other words, instead of ship ping ore hundreds of miles to ex- pensive blast furnaces in Ohio and Pennsylvania, ore can be refined at the mines mouth, then shipped Or industry can flourish near the low grade iron mines which are scat tered throughout the nation

Dean Johannes Nordentoft, writ

christians must be among the
first to fight this dirty anti
Semitism. All honest people
should take part in this fight.
Those who remain silent, or look
upon anti-Semitism only with mild
distaste, are accomplices in the
campaign of hate" He urged

stretch. And, with the running
of the internationally known Blue
Grass classic this weekend we
call to mind that mild May after
noon when a Jewish owner patted
the slim headquarters of Bold
Venture and allowed his Jewish
handler to take over. In turn
the saddIer whispered a few last
minute instructions to Jewish Ira
HanfOrd and when the barrier was
sprung Bold Venture was out in
front and remained out in front
all the way home. The ways
ever since have been saying that
the only thing lacking was the
fact that Bold Venture couldn't
be called Jewish.
The important thing, however,
is that Hanford became the first
Jewish rider to win this most i'm
portant race of the year and has
remained the only Jewish winner
of the Derby. Since that time Ira
has knocked around from track to
track without duplicating his bril-
liant performance of five years
ago. To be sure, there have been
greater Jewish riders than Ira.
