COMMENT ON WORLD
EVENTS

That tWO-th1rdS OF the WORLDS pOpu-
lation is in want even in normal times
is the disturbing conclusion of a sur
vey by Elizabeth Holt, Professor of
Economics, Iowa State College, con-
tanned in Freedom from Want: A
World Goal, recently issued by the
Public Affairs Committee, 80 Rookie
feller Plaza, New York, as the SOth
of it's series of popular 1O-cent pam
phlets.
Declaring that modern science has
made it possible for us to measure
want in exact terms, Miss Hoyt uses
the yardsticks of malnutritiOn, death
rate, and illiteracy to prepare a
World Map of Want" which shows
the whole of Africa, most of Asia and
South America below the level of
healthy living.
Miss Hoyt is in agreement with or
ganized labor that modern methods of
production, with better distribution,
can abolish want.
Want is no longer necessary" she
{
in mans hands: Today we know the
fundamentals of nutrition and how to
get nouriShing food in abundance. We
have dozens of effective weapons now
ready to be used to free people from
disease and premature death"
Among the weapons now at hand
for winning freedom from hunger, dis
ease and ignorance, the author lists
relatively simple changes in diet, the
application of already available mea-
sures of care and cleanliness in the
control of disease, and the whiting
down of illiteracy.
Mis- Hoyt sees the United Nations as
an agency which can be strengthened
further developed, and Immediately
used in the struggle for freedom from
want after the war.
She emphasizes the fact that "there
is no disagreement between rich and
poor, and no international disagree
ment either" about the goal, freedom
from want. She warns, however, that
help must be administered with respect
for, and in cooperation with, the people
who receive it. This is a point which
some of our world planners would do
well to keep in mind.

Industrial profteering and piling up
of hidden war profits seem to be a
principal feature of Nazi Germany at
war, according to an economic survey
leading bank institute and outstanding
exponent of the idea of concentrating
German business and commerce in
bigger and better hands,
Concealed armament and war profits
of German industrial and share cor
pOratiOnS in the period 1888 to 1912
amounted to billion marks, according
to German financial sources, or ap-
proXimately 80 per cent of the nominal
share capital of these corporations.
However, this figure of German in
duStrial and war protiteering is much
too low, the research department of the
International Transport Workers Fed
era ton observes in Il special study of
the subject. Industrial profits before
the outbreak of the war in 1889 have
been estimated at more than five bill
lion marks, according to the fedora
ton. This does not include billions of
declared profits, paid off dividends and
other large amounts written off under
various headings. The German indus
ments, we'll know why they are CON
lributing each year substantial dona-
tions to the Adolf Hitler Fund of the
German industry.

AS THE spokesman for more than six million
loyal American men and women who make up the
American Federation of Labor, | can make only
one response to the inspiring appeal Just voiced
by Secretary of the Treasury Morgenthau-you
can count on every last dollar above what it costs
us to live for War Bonds.-William Green.
The potters herald. [volume] (East Liverpool, Ohio) 1899-1982, 1943-06-03

Since Hollywood has destroyed the
meaning of the old superlatives, there's
no word left to describe Americas war
effort.

CHAPTER III.
Holding the Home Fort.

If you have children, it is not
only wiser it is infinitely more nor
NAL and sound to try and keep your
physical home together. Taking
the children back to Grandma, even
if you find you have to work, is
only a limited solution. One way.
OF course, is to try to get a good
housekeeper who can help you man
age your apartment and child while
you go out to work. The presup-
poses a good salary and we'll
planned economic existence. 1t also
presupposes that you have the phe-
nomenal luck to find a domestic
worker with the brains and willing
ness needed to take over the house
hold duties. They are few and far
between and if you have one such,
bless Allah.
If you do get a good maid she
will be worth her good wages in
the money and worry she can save
you. Shopping economically, plan
ming wisely, she can make the going
much easier for you She will give
you peace of mind on your job all
day because you will know that your
house. your child, your budget are
we'll cared for.
However, if you can't get good
maid for love or money. or you can't
afford one no matter how much she
can save you, and you still want to
hold on to your apartment and keep
your child at home, you can trot
your child over to the nursery school
each morning and call for him each

If your husband carries insurance
for more than five thousand dollars
you have to continue Cor he does
to pay the premiums to keep the
insurance in force. Consider seri-
ously whether to drop these policies
or go on with them. Can you afford
the premiums? Are the policies
letter. perfect, including no war
risks and other riders that render
them inadequate during the war?
Before you go on paying insurance
money on policies over five thou
sand dollars remember that your
husband can apply within 120 days
after entering service for the $4,000
Government insurance. 1t Is a great
deal less expensive than most regu-
lar policies and may solve your
premium problems for the duration.
Investigate the cash surrender
values of your policies before you
drop them and be sure to collect.
Rule of thumb on the whole in
surance problem is neither to con-
tinue to make payments that strain
your budget nor drop insurance out
of hand without proper advice. But,
a word of warning, be sure that the
advice isn't tempered by the essen
tial belief in insurance ASA way
of-life that seems to beat in the
breasts of most insurance men.
Honest4 they are, concerned about
your welfare as they may be. there
is something about listening to and
giving years Of insurance sales talk
that conditions the mind into the
sterile rut of actuary tables and
laws Of probabilities. You have a
living problem that is concerned
not only with the future but with
the hazards and hunger of the
present.
Even if you can manage to keep
your home together, your insurance
paid, and your jewelry out of the
pawnshop, you'll find there are

when it was the only way to give
the child proper supervision. 1t al
adds up to this-you do what you
