normal pupils, give them the same
work over again and do little be-
yond.
The State or city governments do
little or nothing to help. Should a
school report child as seriously re-
tarded, or even as potentially dam
gerous to society, there is little any
body can do beyond making a record
of the report. The court has no
place to send that child, nobody
whose duty it Is to take him out of
an environment in which he cannot
live, and place him in one where
he can function according to his
ability, successfully. We need such
colony schools In every State in the
Union.
Children, and we call all minors
children in this discussion, are rest
less and unhappy and likely to go
astray when they are not usefully
occupied. Useful occupation makes
a child easy in his mind, relaxed in
body, makes him contented and
happy. In that case he is no menace
to society. Children who cannot
learn and cannot live under the con-
ditions of organized society must
be placed where they can live with
out too much strain, at peace with
themselves because they can feel
adequate to the demands made upon
them.
Take a big boy in his early teens,
matured physically, with the
strength and the desires of a young
man, but with the mental ability of
an infant, and try to force him to
stay in a routine classroom, and he
will rebel, and in his rebellion be-
come delinquent. If he could be
placed in colony school, where his
strength and experience could be
used for the common good, he would
fall into his place cheerfully and live
successfully on his level, the only
one he can live upon. In the out
side world he could not compete, but
in his sheltered, adjusted environ

WhyGrow

BY Josephine LOlyman
We don't get that way overnight.
That protruding stomach, those
hips that ride out in the back and
that thick waist which robs you of a
youthful appearance were accumu-
lated gradually.
Virtually all signs of age and fad
ing are gradual processes. You
cannot see the difference in YOUR
self, your friends or your family
from day to day, but the sum total
over the years turns us from young
people into old ones.
1t is necessary to fight these signs
of age day after day BY all rights
you shouldn't be impatient in losing
what it has taken you years to get
together However, nature is kind
in these matters. 1t really is
wonderful how the human body,
our muscles. our nerves, our It's
sues, our posture, our pep, our COM
plexions and our figures respond to
exercise and diet and hygienic life.
Even in eight weeks you can see
startling improvement.
After years of neglect you can so
improve yourself that your friends
will want to know what you have
been doing and your mirror will
give you a happy answer.
You can lose your overweight, and
I am here to help you do it. My
mail is so heavy that I cannot offer
you personal advice all year long.
However, this week I am throwing
the doors of my office open to you.
Send an sos with description, and
I will analyze your figure faults and
send you the necessary advice for
overcoming them.

Stores are still somewhat amazed
by the extent of Christmas buying
and the lack of exchanges which
followed it. One executive, in de-
scribing the frantic shopping, says,
IF we had put big signs on the
counters saying DO Not Buy This
Merchandise the first thing they
would have done would have been
to tear up the signs!"
Most stores think the reason that
there have been so few exchanges
is probably because stocks are so
sadly depleted that recipients are
better off with what they received
than what they now can find. 1t
may be, too. that the ban on
'phoning a store to say, Come
get this pair of earrings I don't
like" may have made most women
more pleased with their Christmas
presents. Anyway, several of the
Washington shops report that the
only tremendous exchanging has
been done in the glove departments
Seems that the gentlemen bought
frivolous novelty styles for their best
girls. while the best girls, being more
practical, turned them in on a good
old pair of black doeskins.
Speaking of the stores, you may
or may not know that they will
continue the Thursday night OPEN
ings which have been so successful
in the past few months. Shopping
still continues furiously, and now
that so many of the Government de-
partments are working full day on
Saturday, it looks as though the
night openings will be needed even
more.
incidentally, there was much con
fusion at Christmas time about
what may and what may not be
delivered Some of the specially
shops are merely requesting that
you tote your packages for victory
while others will continue to adhere
to the Yuletide rule of no deliveries
on packages under so inches in
length or weighing less than 5
pounds. However, should you want
to send some one a gift, it may be
delivered-a point that few people
seemed to know in doing their
Christmas shopping. For instance,
If you buy cigarette box, charge it
to yourself and have it sent to a
bride-to-be, the store will be happy
to do that service, even though the
box is only 6 inches in length and
weighs next to nothing. Of course,
you're not to take advantage of this
loophole if you're at all concerned
about being a patriotic and helpful
citizen.
And now that all the needles have
fallen off the tree and all the egg
nog has been consumed. you can
start watching for the first signs of
spring. Beating out the robins by
a mile are the lads" being seen these
days . it looks like good sea-
son for Short -jacketed print dresses
and gabardine suits . It's about
time, too, to drag out your white hat
and patent leather slippers d.
After all, this is January-spring-
time in the fashion world.

ment, the colony school, he meets
no competition he cannot master
because all the life there is adjusted
to his needs and abilities.
There are some wonderful colony
schools in this country. There is
one in Vineland, N. j., that has
been preaching and practicing this
gospel of custodial care for the
backward for a generation, and
with great success. There are no
delinquents in that school today
though there are no children of
highgrade intelligence within it's
gardens.
We will have delinquents as long
as we make no provision for the
backward ones who cannot measure
up to societys standards. When we
arrange to give them a life back
ground against which they can func-
ton adequately, according to their
ability we will have no problem of
delinquency.
Delinquency often can be avoid
ed by training a child early in
obedience. Angelo Patri recon-
mends such training from baby
hood in his helpful booklet en-
titled "Obedience," which may be
obtained by writing him in care

made by the Natl. Opinion Re-

Those who voted for President

mistic about postwar employment
than are the Willkie voters, the
survey found. Women fear unem-

men do and persons over 40 more
than those in the 21 to SO age

The people most worried by the
prospects of a job shortage are
those in the Service group" such

GRAND STRATEGY:
FDR, Churchill Meet

No sooner had Axis resistance in
Tunisia collapsed than Prime Min
ister Churchill Of Great Britain
was on his way to Washington to
map the next step in the Allied
grand strategy with President
Roosevelt.
Although plans for an invasion
Of Europe loomed largest in the
discussions, the situation in the
Pacific also was given much con-
sideration. Continued Japanese
aerial assaults on Australia and the
pressure the enemy was eXerting
on General Wavell's forces on the
frontier in India, were said to be
Of concern to the conferees.
The two leaders re-emphasized

cision Of Casablanca. ~
Official quarters predicted the
formulation of a concrete plan of
action at the meeting. They re-
membered that Churchill's visit
here after Pearl Harbor resulted in
the decision to concentrate on the
defeat Of Hitler first; ChurchilPs
second conference with President
Roosevelt in Washington in the
summer of 1912 preceded the inva-
sion Of French North Africa, and
the Casablanca meeting saw the
development of plans for the battle
Of Tunisia.
Discussion of the Russian-Polish
controversy, and policies to be
framed with the occupation Of
Europe, also were said to have en-.
tered in the latest Churchill

Maritime Board
Saving It's Face

SAN FRANCISCO (FP) - An
nouncement by Chairman Paul Eliel
of the Pacific Coast Maritime In
dustry Board that the board was
taking over full control of the re-
cruiting program in the longshore
industry was branded by the Intl.
Longshoremen's & Warehousemen' s
Union (CIO) as a face-saving ges-
ture to cover exposures of misman-
agement made before the Downey
manpower subcommittee of the
senate committee on military af-
fairs.
Eliel "has and is continuing to
exhibit complete anti-union bias" !"
the ILWU charged. Before the
Downey committee he made the
statement that there was no short
age of manpower in the longshore
industry, and that no training pro-
gram for women was needed be-
cause the industry had not yet ruin
out of men. AS a result of this at
titude on his part, the industry is
now caught with an acute shortage
Of manpower.
"The union, which has continual
ly pressed for recruiting and
training program, only to be re-
buffed by Eliel and Chairman E.
S. Land of the U. S. Maritime Com
mission as making trivial and abb
surd' proposals, finds it Impossible
to work with Eliel and his staff in
this important undertaking.
Instead, it will press its own
program in cooperation with the
U. S. Employment Service and with
the War Manpower Commission,
which has full authority to act"

Bill Endongers
Closed Shop

WASHINGTON, May lf-Only
by an extremely careful reading of
the lengthy Connally-Smith bill,
S 1876, can it be found, but there is
a provision tucked away at the end
of section dealing with something
else which is slated for particularly
hot debate.
1t has been the Natl. War Labor
Boards custom to order closed
shop only where one already exists,
but it would be deprived of this
right under the bill, and even of
the power to order its standard
maintenance of membership clause
incorporated regularly in contracts.
Here is the wording of the trick
provision Howard w. Smith 3D.
Va.) slipped in, revealed publicly
only after it was reported out by
the house military affairs commit
tee and given the right of way by
the rules committee:
Joker Clause
'In no event shall the Board
have power under this act, or
otherwise, to require as condition
of employment that any individual
become or remain member of
labor organization"
The Smith bill, HR 2124, virtu-
ally all of which was incorporated
in the Connally bill, S 1876, by the
house committee, contains 16 pages
and ID sections and almost every
standard antilabor measure thought
of since it's inception in 1910. But
although reporters were given
detailed outline of what the joint
bill contained after it was reported
out, no mention was made Of the
barring of the union shop.
The bill requires federal registra-
tion and financial reporting of
unions, outlaws. secondary boycotss
and requires a 30-day cooling off
period after strike is voted before
it can take place.

Deodline Set

Lewis Mattox, director of the

announced today that Tuesday,
May 25, will be the deadline for
teams wishing to enter the softball
league.
Nine shops already have entered
teams in the league and Mattox
says that prospects are good for
three additional teams to enter.
Weather permitting, the season
will open the second week in June,
the exact date to be announced.
Five parks will be used for
league play, Cherry, Scott, Wilson,
Ottawa and Highland.
Lack of interest on the part of
the girls in, organizing a team is
making the softball director won-
der if the girls want league. He
says that he will have the same
deadline for the formation Of the
girls teams as for the regular soft
ball leagues and that unless some
teams are entered by that time,
there will be no girls league spon-
sored by the Local.
Following are the teams entered
in the league: Spicer, National
Supply, WHY'S Overland, Standard
Commutator, Acklin Stamping,
Champion Spark Plug, Swartzbaugh
Mfg, Toledo Pipe Threading, Ma
ther Spring and Auto-Lite.

CIO Team
In HordhuIl
League
Weather Interferes
With Praftice


Ralph Mason Of the the Spicer
Unit, is lamenting the cold wet
weather which has prevented the
Local II, UAW-CIO, hardball
team which is entered in the To-
ledo Federation League, from get
ting organized and conditioned for
the season now just couple Of
weeks away.
Had the weather permitted, prac-
tice would have been held Wednes-
day night at Merrill field, but the
weather man and Ten Mile Greek
had other ideas and dry weather
or a more suitable field will be
needed before the team can get
under way.
Need Players
Mason needs a lot more players
and is very anxious to get in touch
with any ball players in the Local.
Those who wish to play, regardless
whether they have ever had fed
GRAFTON experience or not, are asked
to contact Mason, either by calling
him at Local II, Main 1924, or
LAwndale 1886.
Like other teams, the Local IL
organization has been dispersed by
the war. Most of the former play
ers are in the service or have i'm
mediate prospects of being called.
This means that a lot of new talent
must be developed as the season
goes along. Many of the older
players are interested in getting
back on the field again and pros
poets for some of them making a
comeback are very good.
Most of all, Mason is pleading
for good weather and lot of re-
cruits to try out for the team.
Anyone wishing a tryout should
contact him at once and come out
for practice session.

Labor Consumer
Groups Barred
From Air

NEW YORK, May 17-(FP)-
The Natl. Assn. of Broadcasters,
including virtually all big time
radio stations, plans to bar any
group-particularly labor and con-
sumner organizations - from using
radio as a means of organizing,
Variety, national theatrical maga-
zine, disclosed here.
In an editorial which attacked
the broadcasters' decision, Variety
made public resolution adopted
by the NAB at a Chicago meeting
held the last week in April. The
resolution, an addition to the al
ready stiff broadcasters' CO d e
which now bars most union pro-
grams on the ground they are
controversial" read:
Solicitation Barred
Solicitation of memberships in
organizations, except where such
memberships are incidental to the
rendering of commercial services
such as an insurance plan either in
respect to casualty to life or prop
erty, or for membership in the
American Red Cross or like organi-
cations engaged in charitable work,
are deemed to be unacceptable un-
der the basic theory of the Code
and therefore time should be nei-
ther given nor sold for this pur-
pose"
implications of that amendment
are ominous,'' Variety said. "The
master minds of the NAB have
served notice on the American
people that our broadcasting sys-
tenn is no longer open to any form
of solicitation unless it involves
something like the transfer of a
can of soup or cake of soap
across the counter"
Both Variety and the Coopera-
tive League of the U. S. S. said
that one of the main reasons for
the new regulation was the broad
casters futile efforts to bar
program by the cooperatives. Re-
lection of the program brought a
storm of protests from organized
labor and consumer groups, and
final reluctant Acceptance of it by
most stations.
