HARD FROSTS MAKE
RABBITS SAFE GAME

Ohio farmers and farm boys who
enjoy hunting rabbits and who also
like to eat them are told by DR.. Law
renee E. Hicks, Wildlife Research
Station, Ohio State University, there
is little danger of acquiring tularemia,
rabbit fever, from handling rabbits
provided there have been several
hard frosts before the hunting begins.
Tularemia is carried from one rab-
bit to another by ticks, and the in
fected rabbits are killed by the di-
sease within week or 10 days. Hard
frosts eliminate the ticks and there
is no agency to transfer the disease
to healthy rabbits, so those surviving
after freezing weather are safe food
sources.
Human beings usually acquire tu-
laremia by handling or dressing in
fected rabbits Tularemia has not been
as prevalent in Ohio as in some other
states, but physicians reported 1875
cases with 112 deaths in the period
1930-'41.
Dr. Hicks says a study of Ohio
weather records indicates rs per cent
of the cases of human tularemia
would be avoided if rabbits were
hunted only after December L. Wealth
er conditions are variable so no exact
date can be set, but the safety factor
is to wait until hard frosts have killed
the ticks.
Weather and health records show a
marked correlation between warm
Ohio Novembers and prevalence of
tularemia The years 1936-'37 had six
freezing nights before Nov 9; but,
in the years 1885 frosts did not
eliminate ticks until after November
18. There were twice as many cases of
human tularemia in the three years
with warm Novembers than in the
three years with hard frosts early in
that month.

Employees Paid Less Than
Thirty Cents An Hour

Cincinnati, Ohio. - Employees Of
the Cincinnati Cigar Company, 1000
Broadway Street, will now be paid at
least 40 cents an hour and time and
one-half for all hours worked over 40
in a week under the terms of an in
junction issued here today by Federal
Judge John H. Druffel.
In an action brought by the Wage
Hour Division, U. S. Department of
Labor against the Cincinnati Cigar
Company corporation and Harry
Mclaughlin, Abraham G. Katz and
Celestino Vega, a partnership, the
court ordered that S1,85S.71 be paid
in back wages to 118 present and
former employees. This is the amount
the Wage-Hour Division found due
the workers. Some of the employees
were paid less than 80 cents an hour
prior to August 1912 and since then
less than DO cents an hour, the mini
mum for interstate cigar manufacture
ing workers.
The court order permanently re-
strains the co-partners and the cor
poration from future violations of the
Act. The company employs 65 workers
and manufactures cigars.

was intended by saying that it already
was properly centered in one agency.
The President acknowledged the
existence of black markets and said
vigorous efforts would be made to
stamp them out, but he insisted that
the price support program is prov
ing reasonably successful on both
fronts: increasing production and
maintaining fair food prices for the
consumer"
II am convinced" he said, "that to
abandon our present policy would in
crease the cost of living, bring about
demands for increased wages which
would then be justifiable, and might
well start serious and dangerous

profit to anyone.
"Some people say "a little initiation
will not hurt anyone They are like
the man who takes the first shot of
opium for the sensations he thinks it

he swears that he will not make it a

Army Needs All Deerskins

Washington, D. C.-Because deer
skins are urgently needed for war
purposes, the War Production Board
and the Fish and Wildlife Service of
the Department of Interior have
jointly appealed to deer hunters to
turn all deer hides obtained this sea-
son into commercial channels for the
manufacture of military equipment.
1t is hoped that in states where trad
ing in deerskins is prohibited by law
the state game commissions will set
up agencies to collect the skins so
that they may be made available for
Government use.

Washington, D. c. (ILNS) Call
ing upon Congress for fortnight
statement of foreign policy, acknowl-
edging the responsibility of the
United States for helping to maintain
world peace, President William Green
of the American Federation of Labor
declared such statement was "des-
perately needed to clarity interna-
tional planning"
"We look to Congress for wide de-
liberation and speedy action" Presi-
dent Green said in signed editorial
in the November American Fedora
zionist, official AFL organ.
Green said in his editorial:
Even very casual review of
United States history shows that we
have been continuously involved in
every major war between the nations
of Europe. World peace has ever been
indivisible, so that warfare in any
area menaced the peace of all.
Decision Now Crucial
"Now in the midst of the most ter
rible and destructive war the world
has ever encountered, we are making
decisions that will determine whether
we shall continue to use war as our
method of deciding issues between
nations or whether we shall unite
with other countries to develop and
administer world law and order. Such
world law and order must rest on the
basic principle of the dignity of the
individual who has spiritual as well
as physical life. Human rights are
derived from the fact that the in
dividual must decide his life in ac-
cord with moral standards.
Democratic countries accept hu-
man rights as sacred; by uniting on
world basis they can assure human
rights on world basis. Only world
order that assures human rights of
individuals and the groups through
which they seek better life can give
us lasting basis for peace, Such an
order would progress steadily toward
freedom for all and away from rule
over other peoples lives.
"Police Power Essential
Experience shows that the use of
police power is an essential condition
to maintenance of order in any geo
graphic division. This is equally true
of international order.
"There is practically no disagree
ment on detectives. The next step is
to get agreement on how to imple-
ment these objectives. Mutual conf
dence and good faith help toward de-
cisions that will mean freedom for all
peoples.
"While we cannot escape the conse-
quences of the mistakes of the past,
nor the outbreak of civil war when
arbitrary rule is broken, we can raise
the torch of freedom which alone can
lift nations to higher levels of living.
