HOW TIMES do ch ang e.
We're thinking of the old days
when we used 10 get letters
from single girls complaining
about working wives -. women
with husbands they said were
taking their jobs away from
them married women just
had no business working.
And of the big bad wolves
who said woman's place is
in the home let her stay
there where she belongs.
And now look. We are asked
10 tell the little woman in the
home +. that she is needed d..
and badly in all sorts Of
places, where more help is re-
quired.
The request comes from Char
ley Boyd Of the Retail Merchants
Association, who says that the
stores are anxious 10 contact
housewives. even those with
children old enough 10 leave.
who can work a few hours a day
a few days week.
Help Needed
Detroit women responded so
splendidly 10 the patriotic appeal
TO shop in the middle Of the
day" Mr.. Boyd says. that the
peak in store traffic is now from
about II a. m. to 3 or 4 p. III.
More help is needed in these
busy hours, as well as halliday
workers.
Stores hope 10 locate women
who can come in when the
store opens and serve through
noon. and others who can come
in at noon and serve until clos
ing. Housewives who can spare
from three to five hours a day
several days a week will Nave
little trouble finding openings at
regular pay rates in many large
stores both in neighborhood dis
tricts and particularly down.
town.
Stores. operating under price
ceilings, obviously can't compete
with war plant wages. But many
workers are more interested in
patriotic service than in the
thickness of the payCheck. A
woman. particularly a housewife
with family also. can't take
work in war plant because she
can't stay away from home the
required. number of hours to
work a full shift.

DANGEROUS ADVERTISING
fEditor and Publisher)


One of the interesting items offered
in New York newspaper advertising on
Easter Sunday was commando knife
also known as the soldiers best friend"
1t is described as a 7-inch razor-sharp,
dOuble-edge bayonet blade Of the finest
steel, with number Of other details.

to non-combatants, this reader found

ity and value to the fighting men, but
One old soldier was still wondering
why parents and friends should be ex-
pected by any advertiser to dig into their
own pockets for the private armament
Of their fighters. All of us are paying
taxes and buying bonds in unprecedent-
ed amounts to permit the government to
do exactly the same job. If the govern
ment can't buy and issue an equally good
knife to its soldiers and Marines at far
less than SO per unit, somebody ought
to look into military purchasing prac-
tees
If the government can do that-and
we are certain that it can and does-why
make such a deadly arm available to
the criminal classes?
As a matter Of sound public policy, the
sale Of weapons designed only for slaugh-
ter ought to be strictly controlled, and
prohibited unless the buyer can show
sound reason for his purchase.

The last vestige of appaasement is
about to disappear. 1t will go when we
take Martinique, French island in the
Caribbean.
There is no reason to try appeaSament
on France any longer France under
Laval has been turned body of not souD
over to the AXIS. We tried appeasement
on Petain for a long while, and got no
where with it. We also tried it ON Fin
land, and failed. We are making no
pretense At appeasement with either
country now.
There is no other reason why we
should not move in on Martinique. In
fact, the world will respect lis more if
we do seize the island and put to good
use what we find there, including tank
ers, WarShips and merchant shipping
When Secretary Hull told the world
last week that hereafter the Martinique

will spread the harvest and make the

Capital + I aIk

The frequently expressed idea
that l943 would see the us. civilian
economy reduced to some absolute
bedrock minimum doesn't seem to
be working out. Several confiden-
tial surveys of recent trends in va
riouS merchandising fields have re-
vealed evidence that the amount of
goods and services to be purchased
by consumers will be about 10
per cent less than it was last year,
and if this prediction is borne out,
much of the current agitation for
the creation of a new government
department of civilian supply, sep
arate from the War Production
Board, may be shown up as undue
alarm.
Based on reports pi what
ftoreS sold in the first three
months of 1943, tOday's estimates
show that the total dollar val
ume of goods sold during the en-
tire year will be only about per
cent below the total sales of 1912,
which certainly isn't any indica-
tiOn of an approaching bedrock
economy. The goods and serv-
ices you buy won't be available
in the same quantity for respec-
tive lines of merchandise, but
when you add up all the esti-
mates of sales in various lines,
the total dollar volume comes out
close to last years total.
WHAT YOU CAN BUY
Breakdown on the estimated sales
in each major line is important be-
cause it indicates what you as q
consumer will be able to buy with
your money during the balance of
the year. Roughly, it runs some
thing like this:
AS an average citizen, you may
spend 20 per cent more i'm eating
and drinking places. Higher res
taurant prices plus your inclina-
tiOn to eat out more, TO stretch
your ratiOns and because you
have extra dough i'm your i>ans
and culOttes, account for that.
You may spend little more in
clothing stores than you did last
year. Production of wearing ap-
parel hasn't been curtailed, with the
exception of shoes. Most stores re-
port good inventories. And even
though shoes are rationed, the to-
tai number Of pairs available to
civilians will be only a little under
last years total.
Your purchases in drug stores ap-
pear to be headed for a 10 per cent
increase in quantity over last year.

NONE IN CITY

No bombs were dropped on the
city Of Rome itself, which has es-
capped aerial attack throughout the
war although the British never have
pledged themselves to avoid attack
on the Holy city, which also is the
center of the Fascist military sys-
TEN.
The lack Of -rcng opposition over
the Rome area surprised the Allied
pilots. One group of Wellingtons
roared over their targets at an alti-
tude of $50 feet, striking at the base

bombs, swept in twice at attitudes
