their particular postwar plan.
Typical is the APPOINT plan
to provide the necessary IN
centives to preserve and re-
build our free enterprise system"
proposed recently to the Economic
Club of Detroit by Chairman Alfred
P. Sloan Jr. of General Motors
Corp. 1t goes like this;
l. The government should hand
over its Is billion dollars worth Of
wartime Industrial plant and equip
ment to big business. "What could
be more helpful" Sloan asked, than
to meet in this way the "responsl-
bility" the government has to re
build a foundation of confidence"
among timid big businessmen?
,. The government must promise
TO be nice in the future about tax
ing profits, Tax rates on capital
gains should be reduced, preferably
eliminated" Sloan said. Also, when
the war is over, taxes on Individual
incomes must be sharply reduced
to rates which are not confiscatory
from the point of view Of prejudic-
ing the incentive profit"
3. Power must be taken away
from organized labor. Labor's
strength, Slian said, is the most
serious cloud in the immediate post
war period" so something must be
done right away to remedy "tne
great gains in privileges labor IS
now enjoying, which are manifestly
unfair"
4. After the government has thus
fulfilled its responsibility to busl-
ness-from then on it should leave
business strictly alone.
People Not Equal
Men are not created equal,
Sloan said, and it must be under
stood from the beginning that po-
Iitical action demanded by the peo-
pie can never solve the postwar
problem-the dynamic and imagi-
native leadership" of big business
must be the foundation Of any
realistic planning"
President Frederick Coolidge
Crawford Of the National Associa-
tion Of Manufacturers, in a recent
radio broadcast, admitted that after
the war people will want jobs. How
ever, postwar jobs are strictly the
responsibility of big business. mo
one can guarantee jobs" he said
"You can't have jobs without hav-
ing employers and there can't be
employers without capital. If busi-
ness is denied the chance now to
accumulate this needed new capital,
new jobs which will be needed so
badly will not be created"
Government Restrictions
Crawford demanded an immedi-
ate end to all annoying government
restrictions ON profits, wages,
treatment Of labor, After excessive
taxes are destroyed and the govern
ment's so billion dollars worth Of
war supplies is made available" TO
private enterprise then, said
Crawford, big business will cer-
tainly try in this matter Of jobs for
all.
The Fundamentals Of Postwar
Planning as outlined by the First
National Bank of Boston in its cur
rent New England Letter followed
the same line, as did a recent
speech made by President Eric a.

found himself the object of
attentiveness from both senators
and big shots in radio. After the
hearing, ce-President Frank E..
Mullen of the National Broadcast
ing Co. told Thomas, it was learned,
that he wanted to get together with
labor to work out program to pre-
vent the government taking over
the industry. Thomas gulped lit
tie, it was reported, as Mullen went
on to assure him that hereafter he
could get time on the air at any
time.
Senators 'were busy explaining
that the committee, meeting to con
slider s 814, the Wheeler White bill
to reorganize the Federal Commu
nications Commission, would re-
write it to include FEC regulations
of networks and to provide equal
time to labor on controversial sub
jects.
Thomas First Witness
Thomas, first witness from or
ganized labor, opposed the bill OIL
the grounds it would interfere with
FCC's work. The bill has been
pushed by industry in the hope that
FEC would be weakened and that,
with the commissions divided as
called for in the bill, Chairman
James +. Fly's authority would oe
reduced or even eliminated.
Citing refusal of stations to sell
time to the UAW and curbs against
programs supporting win-the-war
programs and the Commander-in-
Chief, Thomas demanded an inves-
tigation Of private censorships
which are keeping labor off the
air" and abolition of the National
Association of Broadcasters' code.
Thomas told the committee ex-
haustively what he thought of Full
ton Lewis Jr., commentator over
the Mutual network. Lewis used
an elaborate technique in an at
tack on the freedom of speech Of
Congress ITSELF" he said. Under
guise of giving his opponent a
hearing, Lewis let Rep. Wright

of subsidies. The commentator then
proceeded to indulge in a personal
attack on Mr.. Patman for using
that time in a way Mr.. Lewis
didn't like" he said.

Lewis was the broadcaster who
attacked the JAW and its con
sumner counsel, Donald Montgomery

has failed to grant requests by
either union or counsel to reply.

ing got into this rut but you
can achieve your goal through self.
control and perseverance.
A. T. B.: After reading so many
satisfactory answers, l decided
would write you in regard to my
home affairs. We have been married
nearly two years. My husband
drinks whiskey lot and stays out
late at night occasionally all
night. love him but l would like
to know what l must do about it.
Ans: You are allowing him en-
tirely too much freedom. If he is
determined to drink, you should in
sist that he drink his whiskey at
home. When he gets out among
his erOnies and starts drinking, he
doesn't know when to come home.
If you don't put a stop to it now
you will have a bigger problem
on your hands later on.
R. S. NJ: / have been in the
army three years and have worked
myself up to a fair rating. l have
never been married but have
wanted a wife every since l have
been grown. l met a girl last
Christmas and fell in love with her
at first sight. She says she fell for
me, too, and asked that I send for
her so we can get married. l want
your advice.
Ans: You don't know this girl
well enough to know whether this is
real love or not or if you are
just in love with love. Your court
ship has been mostly through mail
and that isn't sufficient enough
to warrant a marriage. Wait until
the war is over and you have had a
chance to court her under normal
conditions to make up your mind.
If she loves you, she will wait.
R. l.: l am 16 years old, been
married a year and three months.
Ny husband wants me to have a
baby. He says if l don't have one
ne is going to move out and leave
me. What must l do?
Ans: Both of you are rather
young to take on the responsibility
of having a baby. But if you will
both agree that you want one badly

spOnsibility >. then l would sug-
gest that you talk it over with a

My New ls43 Astrology Readings Are Ready

w. B. A: l am a fellow of p,
have been married twice, but if l
keep feeling like l do now, I'll be
single again. Please help me and
tell me the straight facts.
Ans: You seem to have the Opin-
ion that marriage is a fiy-by-night
affair here today and gone to-
morrow. 1t is impossible to realize
the true satisfaction out of mar
rage when you refuse to accept its
obligations. Jealousy seems to be
the main cause for dissensiOn- You
need not suspect your wife E. she
is taking her marriage far more
seriously than you are.
n. F. A: am wondering what
will be the best thing for me to do.
l am a young girl in college. If
l fail this quarter should l con-
tinue on or quit?
Ans: There is no point in your
failing. You are capable of making
average grades but you can't ex-
pect to slide by on your looks. 1t
would bring disgrace to your family
if you were dismissed from school
because of failure. There are few
people who can get by in college
without studying but you are
going to have to dig, and dig hard
if you expect to pass.
B. NJ: have always been a sly
woman, who played men for what
l could get out of them, made mon
keys of them, kidded them along
and laughed at them when l was
through. But now l have lost my
secret weapon and l am not able
to keep a man, although run them
down, fight over them but am
just like a stray dog. Everyone
looks down on me. l have thought
Of a change. Maybe by working
hard l can get rid of my conscience.
have told you the truth, haven't
spared myself at all. Please help
me.
Ans: The saying that whatever
you SOW, so shall you reap still
holds good. In the long run, we get
out of life just what we put into it.
Now you are getting a taste of
your own game. l recommend a
change of cities for you as you will
never be able to make q fresh start
there. 1t isn't too late to turn from
the primrose path to higher phase
of living. This of course means
that you are going to have to get a
job and live decently and discOn-

Coffee Pot Method: Put ground coffee in

Slick Method: Use finest grind. Keep mix
ture tumbling in upper bowl for two minutes;
longer, if stronger coffee is desired.
Drip Method: Have water boiling vigorously
before pouring into top of drip-o-lator. If strong
er coffee is desired, bring mixture to boiling
point and pour through again.
