Good Housekeeping

With spring approaching. on
the calendar al least. housewives
can take an example from the
modern war plant when IL comes
TO good housekeeping.
"Show me n clean plant and
I'll show you a safe one" says
one plant physician. And ne also
meant an efficient one.
No longer are factories grinny,
greasy. dirty structures. The
ones which have been put up
since the war are air cond.-
toned, well lighted. immacu-
lately kept The floors are well
scrubbed, the machinery pol
ished and efficient.
Even the uniforms Of the
workers are clean. well laun-
dered. The day Of the greasy
handed mechanic in grimy over
alls is gone. Good housekeeping
in the shops has become pow
erful factor in cutting down in
dustrial accidents.

 The end of the first decade of diplomatic relations between the United States and Russia finds the world again acclaiming an agreement to which these two nations are parties important in the peace hopes of the world The agreement is the recent four declaration participated in in Mos COW by representatives of the United States Great | Britain, Russia and China. The declaration calls for the four carry the until their enemies have surrendered internationally and then to stand together to keep the world at peace.
 There were periods in that decade when relations between Russia and the United States were strained One was when Russia went to against Finland. Another when Russia reached agreement with Adolf Hitler that apparently freed the Nazi leader to carry his against the democraces without fear of interference by Russia However the threat of the powerful Russian bear poised his borders drove the power-hungry and distrustful Nazi chief to invade Russia June 22, 941.

Even though they the same side there still was lack of complete understanding between Russia and the democracies lack highghted by the second issue.
 The enemies of the United Nations tried hard to capitalize this misunderstanding tried to keep alive
 the distrust that widely divergent political ideolo gies had built up However they failed to recognize that despite this political chasm that separated the countries there one banner under which all were fighting and marching-the banner of freedom. This mutual need to keep the aggressor from their homes a factor working on the side of the far-seeng diplomats who never gave up their struggle to weld

SUGGESTIONS

The San Francisco Chamber of Commerce has taken stands on number of matters regarding mining which should be of interest to all mining communities affected adversely a result of war closures of non-essential mines.
 Four resolutions have been passed advocating the following:
 Enactment of Federal legislation providing for the establishment and maintenance of metals and minerals stockpies during and after World War II.
 The use and free exchange of gold as monetary standard in any international currency stablization plan having the participation of the United States.
 Amendment of the War Production Boards order L-2O8 which closed the gold mines, that the mining companies may operate sufficiently to cover their out-of-p pocket overhead and maintenance expenses during the period.
 Provision of secured loans by the Reconstruction Finance Corporation to tide gold mining companies through the war period to permit the resumption of operations later.
 According to the San Francisco Chamber during the early months of this year, gold production in California averaged about $446000 month, and the decline is continuing Production of gold in 1922 was more than S29Oo0000 in 1941, more than s49O00000, and in 1940 more than S51 OO0,0OO
 The Chamber predicts that gold production for this year will California than any year since 184g.

LOB CONFUSION

It's an old story in Washington that an officials wife can't keep abreast of her husbands bureau- cratic congratulations. But it is something of new story when the officials themselves get lost in the labyrinth.
 c. B. t"Beany'D Baldwin resigned as Farm Security Administrator to become Area Director for Econom- ic Operations in Italy" Cordell Hull himself asked Baldwin to take the job,, so he naturally thought he was going to work for the State De- partment.
 But one executive order followed another, with BEW becoming OEW, and DEW becoming TEA, all being absorbed by Leo Crowley. along with the Foreign Economic Office of the State Department. Result is that some people aren't entirely sure where they are working.
 A friend approached Baldwin at a cocktail party one afternoon 'Beany,' he said, have drink
 No" said Baldwin.
 Whats the matter?" persisted the friend
 Not tonight" was the reply, I've got to keep my mind clear, because tomorrow I'm going to make a final attempt to find out Who my boss is"
 Note Since then, the State De- partment has appointed Henry Grady, former State Department assistant, to represent it on the Allied Control Commission in Italy This is somewhat the same function to which it originally appointed Baldwin, 50 the situation is more confused than ever.
