Refiriendose a las activida-

dos espanoles, Don Alvaro
de AIbornoz ell quito lider re-
publicano, dijo estas pala-

bIica en- la capital mejicana:
"Creo firmemente en- la ter

70 Gobierno republican, es-
panol no sera ell que elijan
unos cuantos miles de emf

ma republican, Sc de en- uso
de su seberania. Lo que los
republicanos espanoles que
remos ante TODD y sobre TODD
es que sea respetada en- SUI
dia la voluntad nacional.
Nuestro lena, pensando tan
to en- los totalitarios como en-
la democracia, es: mi Quis-

a esa asamblea de Montevi-
dec, Bogota o donde sea,
puedo decir a listed que off

"Desde mi punto de vista

Steel Rate 10 Drop
To 2-Year Low Of
9O.3 Per Cent
Sharp Cut This Week
lcid to Reduction
In Coal Supplies
By the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, June 28.-Steel op-
erations this week will drop to the
lowest rate for any week in two
years because of reduced coal sup
plies, incident to the recent mine
suspension, the American Iron and
Steel Institute said today.
Estimating operations this week
at 90.3 per cent of capacity, a de-
cline of 73 points from the preced-
ing weeks rate of 976 per cent, the
institute said careful check dis
closed the drop was due almost en-
tirely to the coal interruption. The
steel tonnage output this week was
estimated at 1563,700 tons, compared
with 1890, 100 a week earlier.
The weeks rate of work will be
the lowest since 91.8 per cent opera
tionS in the week beginning June 80,
1941, the institutes records disclosed.
Production at that time was 1885,
TOO tons.
A month ago operations were at
the rate of 984 per cent of capacity
and output 1,7O4 900 and year ago
the rate was 95.8 and production L.
1900 In that week account was
taken of some interruptions incident
to the observance of the Fourth Of
July holiday.

Early Stock Advances

Late Profit-Tokinq
Cuts Many Coins;
Declines Appear
BY VICTOR EUBANK,
Associated Press Finance Tditol

NEW YORK, June 2S.-Stocks
generally kept trend sights pointed
upward in todays market although
recovery craftsmanship wavered a
bit here and there as the proceed
ings drew to a close.
Steels, aircrafts, rails, motors and
utilities were among the days fav-
orites, with scattered issues touch
ing new three-year tops Gains at
the best ranged from major frac-
tions to more than a point. A lit
tie profit taking reduced many ad-
vances in the final hour and small
declines we're well distributed. Deal
ings, fastest at the start, subsided
as offerings cropped up and trans
fers for the full stretch were around
100000 shares.
Reinvestment demand, mild in
f1ationary psychology, persistently
cheering war developments and a
more hopeful attitude toward the
domestic economic and political pic
lures received the main credit for
the better action of the list.
Stocks touching peaks for 1943 or
longer included Chrysler, WHY'S
Overland, Standard Oil IN. j.,
Texas Co., Consolidated Edison, U. S
Rubber, Sears Roebuck, American
Can and General Electric. In front
were U. S. Steel, Bethlehem, Santa

ton of an additional s7,500,Oo0 OF

him hiding behind a counter, the
ham fondly clasped in his arms. He
drew a three-to-five-year sentence

But the mans real punishment
came earlier when police switched

got good look ct his prize. It was
simply a display ham, made of saw

The Children OF All Ages

His pack is lighter, some of it's contents
are slightly erSatz, and he may be trifle
late because his helpers, too have gone
to war. But nothing has happened to
Santa Claus that time won't remedy. The
papers tell about a young mother who
sort of sided up to one OF Santas depart
ment store assistants and whispered in
his ear about the husband who has been
away for two ChriStmaSeS noW-who may
never return in body, because his name
is on the Army's list of the missing. She
slipped package unobtrusively into San
ta'S hands. And when it came her little
boys turn to talk with the kindly old
man, Santa told him gravely:
"Your daddy is long way off, training
soldiers He hasn't time to leave his
work and come home for Christmas. But
I get around everywhere, and your daddy
would like very much for me to see that
this package is delivered personally to
you" Yes, daddy is away, perhaps in
uniform, perhaps working long hours to
see that the soldiers and sailors and Ma
rineS and merchant seamen get every
thing they need. Mummy is doing two
parents work at home and probably con-
tributing otherwise to the war effort. But
Santa still gets around everywhere.
Store stocks are low, prices are high,
taxes and war bonds make money far
from plentiful. Yet Santa still lives, as
spiritually young, as sprightly, as kindly
and as thoughtful as ever Gasoline
shortage and thin tires make his work
harder, but it would take more than that
to stop Santa, because he loves all good
little boys and girls, and for those who
should have been better than they were,
he has vast and abiding charity. Hit
Ter and beasts like him have destroyed
many of our fond illusions. Don't let
them dim the ulster of your faith in Santa
Claus. Santa Claus isn't any illusion, or
delusion. He is as real, as tangible, as
everlasting as the daddy who holds you in
his arms when the days work is done,
the mother who tucks YOU into bed and
pulls up the covers against winters cold
blast. He is as concrete, as substantial
as love and hope and faith.
This world never will be without San
ia Claus so long as most of it's people are
decent-so long as editorial writer's like
us spend most of the year writing about
evil because good is so commonplace that
we take it for granted.
The Waterbury Democrat. [volume] (Waterbury, Conn.) 1917-1946, 1943-12-22

A well-founded fear is growing concern
ing the future of small business. Total
war has tended to centralize industry.
Somehow the trend must be corrected.
But in correcting it, the belief should not.
be allowed to develop that there is some
thing wrong in size alone. This is big
country. 1t will always need the produc-
tive effort of big industry just as it will
need the productive effort of little in
dustry. Moreover, the problems of both
big and little industry will to a large
extent always be inseparable. For eX-
ample, the small business man cannot re-
main Indifferent to the present danger
of permanent Specialization of industries
such as electric power, transportation
and natural resources.
If, when this war is over, the field of
public ownership is extended to include
basic industries employing large num-
berS of workers - and voters - the way
will have been opened for the deStruc-
ton of representative government. Any
government that controls the jobs and
resources OF people will not be content
to play long the role of servant. Our
basic industries at present are owned and
operated by millions of private citizens
under stringent public regulation. This

ment of an Oil well, mine, a railroad
or any other enterprise, should be allowed
to enjoy the fruits Of their efforts, just the
same as the newsboy who spends months
building up clientele On a certain cor
ner deserves his just reward.
When it comes to questions of property
rights and rewards for achievement, all
must receive the same treatment. It can
be no other way. If these things are
restricted or taken away from one group,
as has again happened in the case of the
coal mine owners, it is only question of
time before they are taken from others,

Spare That Tree

Mrs. Roosevelt has persuaded the Dis
trict of Columbia commissioners to re-
tain the White House outdoor Christmas
tree this year. There are to be no electric
lights on it, and the decorations to be
contributed by school children.
We are all for sparing the tree and
all for having it decorated. We are pre-
pared to go along on leaving it dark not
because we think the electricity saved will
win the war, but as an example. Some
how, however, we can't figure out any
saving from having children provide the
decorations most of them, probably,
bought for the purpose - instead of haul
ing last years finery out of the White
House equivalent of the old family attic.
Oh, well, let it 60. It's Christmas, and
there are intriguing bright bundles hid
den in most of the closets at home, and
anyway, the kids will get lot of fun out
of being able to say: "See that spangle
on the third limb from the top on the left
hand side = the green and red one? I sent
that to Mrs Roosevelt"

IS Per Cent Wrong

Senator Kenneth MCCLELLAN OF Ten
nessee, acting chairman of the Appropria-
lions Committee, has checked with
administrative agencies and reports that
Senator Hugh Butler Of Nebraska was "95
per cent wrong" In his attack upon our
spending policy in Latin America.
Well, we wouldn't say that. Fifty-fifty,
perhaps. Right in theory, for the most
part; wrong in facts, almost wholly.
Instead of spending six billion dollars
down there in three years. exclusive OF
purchases, we actually are spending
either $324,185 900 or $178,5 $685. 900, ac-
cording to whether military expenditures
are included or excluded, says Senator
Mcclellan. On behalf of the Co-ordinator
of Inter-American Affairs, it was sug
Vested earlier that the figure was per-
laps $6OO,OOO,000. Of the three, that
laymen are in position to judge. Senator
Butler is right in asserting that there is
much waste. Evidences OF boondoggling
have been gathered and written by re-
sponsible newspapermen, but you haven't
read them.
They have been squelched by censors
in Washington though they had nothing
even remotely to do with national secur-
ity, but only with protecting the political
positions of the boondogglers. 1t seems
shame, at time when practical, sound
economy is so badly needed, that United
States senator should have made such
Eotch OF presenting the case for economy.
Starting with gross exaggeration of the
aggregate expenditure, continuing with
superficial suggestions as to where waste
lay, Senator Butler ended up by playing
squarely into the hands of apologists for
boon doggling and waste. He scooped up
fumbled ball, carried it behind his own
goal posts, planted it there, and began
growing: Look. I've laid an egg"
But don't be sidetracked by Senator
Buffers accident. He. was only half
wrong. We're still tossing money around
like drunken sailors with apologies to all
seamen) both in Latin America and else
where. It's a dollar-to-a-doughnut bet
that Senator Truman could go down there
and bring the bacon = and neither OPA
nor military censorship could prevent
senator from frying out the bacon fat
and cooking lot of boondogglers in 1t.

planes, and blockbusterS, but that,

ing.
While the war has especially in
defense areas, brought restaurants
unprecedented business, it also has
created problems for their owners,
including food restrictions and la
Dor shortages. One has only to
read the Help Wanted" columns of
the larger newspaper to learn how
serious the situation is.
Although there has been a sharp
increase i'll the wages Of restau-
rant personal, and although
prices of foodstuffs have mounted,
many eating places continue to
serve palatable meals at moderate
prices.
In addition to serving a small
army of defense workers, restau-
rants provide an oasis for the fam
lily when ration points have been
expended injudiclously = and this
creates another problem for the
proprietor In military centers,
by furnishing employment for wives
of servicemen. it enables them to
be longer with soldier husbands.
