There Must Be Limits
Cincinnati Enquirer

Cincinnati Enquirer
 The two top men in American union labor, Will liam Green of the American Federation of Labor and Philip Murray of the Congress of Industrial Organi zation paid President Roosevelt call at the White House the other day to complain that the cost of living is getting out of bounds" and ask that some thing be done about it.
 Although they suggested form of overs all ceiling" what Messrs Green and Murray seemed to regard as the best solution to the problem is re- vision of the socaled Little Steel formula where by the War Labor Board has been limiting general wage increases to no than Is percent of the wage levels of January l, 194l They complained that this wage stabilization program is too rigid and unfairly keeps stationary both high and low level wages.
 The Federal wage stabilizaton program is not perfect of course. It is a wartime expedient rule of thumb policy arrived at in the face of necessity But MT. Green and MT. Murray must not forget that the wage stablizaton program is one of our main dikes against inflation-and this is hardly time to revile the beauty of its architecture
 There could be no wage stabization program if it undertook to humor every mans desire for higher wages. Such program must have terminal faci- ties; it must be tied hard and fast to something. The same thing is true of food price control pro- gram and the two interdependent.
 It is futile for labor leaders, farmers or any, else to seek solution of the high of living problem through mass increase of their wages Tor prices Our economic structure is a very complex thing but its operation is fundamentally simple The cost of living after all, is but combination of the wages and prices of material and foodstuff that enter into the provision of everyday necessities Imitation travels through economic structure in vicious circle. If it is not curbed somewhere, set group of population imposes temporarily upon the others-but only temporarily It is not able characteristic of imitation that it finally leaves all concerned worse off.

RUSSIA'S AIMS

With American setbacks in Africa, no spectacu- lar gains other fronts Allied eyes turn more and more towards Russia for heartening news People now are not asking the question, Will Russia be able to hold outp" What they asking now is: 'where will Russia stop?r
 Will the Russians go to Berlin? They went to Berlin once, in 1760 They went into Paris once too after Napoleon's downfall We believe the Rus sians will drive into Germany if they can There have been too many atrocities committed by the Nazis in the Ukraine. and other parts of occupied Russia The Russians want more than to drive the invader from Russia.
 But do not believe that Russia wants any, thing else from Germany. On the contrary Russia's postwar aims point toward the Pacific.
 Walter Duranty, author and correspondent who seems to know as much about Soviet Russia as any writer who has spent much time in that country believes this is He proposes that Russia wants an independent Soviet of Manchuria affiliated with the US.SR. similar Republic of Korea, even per- haps the Northwestern Chinese Soviet Republic of Sinkiang Ningshia and Shensi, whether the Chinese want this or not.

 HEART AND HOME. Increase in the birth rate will continue and children born under this sign will be extraordinary in their mental endowment. To them will be en- trusted tremendous responsibilities in the Aquarian age, which will cast its influences over closing war times. When Uranus passes through Cancer u950-56) many changes in the world recovering from long war may be expected, astrologers an- nounce. Many individualized homes will show the airy trend of Aquar- ian influences. Radio and radio en- gineering will bring television and other marvels to the average fam ily
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Finan- ciers who comment on the fact that wartime has not made so much difference as was expected in stock market conditions may expect a fitful downward trend for the next six or seven months with slight recovery the last three months of 1943 Conjectures regarding wheat and cotton prices are extremely, un- certain, but this month should be fairly favorable for both commod- ities. Plenty of money will continue in circulation.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Those who look forward to postwar conditions foretell the most complicated im- migration problems ever presented to the United States and Mexico. The Western Hemisphere is to be the land of promise to many of the peoples of Europe who have es- capped with their lives and nothing else in the destruction of their cities md their private property To the long persecuted Jews this part of the world will be the most desired sanctuary.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIR Misunderstanding among the Unit ed Nations are indicated and these will be exaggerated by fifth, col umnists, among whom will be resi- dents of the United States antag- onistic to the Administration in Washington. The seers warn that all sense of rivalry should be elim- mated where fame is daily earned by fighting men of all ranks. Again the seers warn of secret foes in vul- nerable positions. Vigilance should be unremitting.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of ex- cellent progress. Men in the armed forces should be fortunate. Womer may be tempted into extravagani indulgences in a time of necessary sacrifices.
 Children born on this day pro- bably will be fortunate all through their lives. Success in the artistic professions is foretold.

sealed jar is likely to break when
subjected to the dry heat of an oven.
Bands for glass top seal and vac
uum seal caps are not interchange
able because a deeper band is need
ed for the glass lids, but the two
have one thing in common. Neither
is rust-proof That's because of the
zinc shortage, but a quick wiping
after each use with a cloth mois-
tened with paraf1in will prevent Sc
rious rusting. 1t will save time and
trouble too, if cloth is prepared
ahead of time and kept in one of
those glass jars that can't be used
for homecoming. Then when the
cloth is needed, set the jar in a pan
of warm water until the paraffin
softens.
The lightning jar ESQ called be-
cause it is quickest to seaD requires
very little metal and not too much
rubber for sealing. Several manu-
facturers make this type jar. 1t
seals with a glass lid and rubber
held in place with wire balls. The
wires used on one nationally known
brand are of heat-treated, high-ten-
sion, stretch-proof, spring steel. This
is the ideal jar for home canning
any year because 1t IS so easy to
seal. The rubber is placed on the
sealing surface or shoulder, the lid
comes next, then the upper bail wire
is pushed up until it rests in the
groove in the top of the lid. Pay no
attention to the lower wire, it takes
care of itself until after the jars are
removed from the canner-then it is
pushed down against the side of the
jar and that's all there is to sealing
it.
When buying jars. choose pints for
peas. corn, and shelled beans-and
quarts for all other vegetables. Half
pint sizes aren't being made, and
half-gallons are unsuitable for can
ming vegetables because it takes too
long for heat to reach the center of
the jar.

war plans, the future is not too
reassuring. For instance, as
sumo for the moment a national
income after the war of 100 bill
ion dollars and gross national
debt of $50 billion dollars. The
state and local governments are
spending 9 billion dollars a n.
nually; the Federal expenditures
over the past 10 years averaged
8 billion dollars. This makes a
total of II billion dollars for Or

Add 6 to 8 billion dollars for in

veterans and dependents. This
totals to about 10 billion of the
100 billion dollar estimated ma
tional income without allowances
for debt redemption, world wide
relief, and other tavorite pro-
jects. There's the major cause
of most of the doubt. Merely to
tabulate the costs shows the abb
surdiry of the program
To borrow phrase from New
York's Ex-Governor A Smith,
Browning chief. [volume] (Browning, Mont.) 1941-1953, 1943-06-25

DR.. Saxon has looked al the
record" and that record proves
conclusively t h at we have to
abandon most of the grandiose
schemes for social security and
Government handouts in h e
postwar period. Most certainly
the Federal, State and local gov
ernments cannot tax away 70
per cent of the national income
in order to balance the budget.
We thoroughly agree with DR..
Saxon that merely to tabulate
the costs shows the absurdity of
the program" which the starry
eyed, impractical dreamers have
planned for the postwar period.
The peace will find US at the fork
of the road. One sign-post will
read: This road is rocky one.
1t is paved with thrift and econ
omy. It's up hill all the way,
but it can be travelled, and it
eventually will bring you to that
desirable destination of balanced
budgets, debt redemption, democ-
racy and freedom" The other
sign post reads: This road is
smooth one. 1t is paved with
waste and sloth. It's downhill all
the way. 1t is easy to travel,
but it finally will brig you to the
most undesirable destination of
unbalanced budgets, debt repud-
iation, dictatorship and slavery"
Which fork will we take?
