On the Price Front

ing labor on the Price Panel of the
local War Price and Rationing
Board, says that consumers are
missing chances TO crush the black
market.
For instance, there was the man
who was buying a secondhand re-
frigerator on the instalment plan.
The price agreed on was S160. The
ceiling price, on the other hand, was
$61.5o. When he had paid all but
SIS of the amount, the OPA heard
of the case and secured the repay
ment to him Of $3.50. He was en-
titled to recover three times the
amount of the overcharge, or 1895 so.

Progress on
Rent Control

John Il. Neal, who has interested
himself especially in the problem
of rent control. visited Baltimore
last week and found that some pro-
gress was being made toward get
ting rent control in Cumberland.
Authorities were outraged to hear
of cases that Neal presented. One
member of Local 1874, father Of
three service men, had his rent
raised IS a month because of the
increase in the tax rate" 1t was
calculated that the increased taxes
amounted to 40 cents month.
Another case was that of land
lord who raised a family's rent just
after the head of the household had
left for the armed forces.

Napoleon was driving through

No doubt there were forms Of
organizations with their celebra-
tons in honor Of labor long before
this.
Labor is directly connected with
necessity. Necessity created labor
as we know II. Abraham Lincoln
said. Labor Created Capital"
Labor relations in the beginning
were simple because the problems
they had to deal with were simple.
For housing, no doubt the only
thing necessary was to seek a
likely spot and put together or
form some type of abode to keep
out the worst of the weather. The
food problem was probably solved
chiefly by hunting, fishing. gather
ing of natural fruits. nuts, and
plants, with perhaps simple cul-
tivation of the soil. Clothing was
more or less matter of weaving
natural fibers and using the pelts
of whatever animals were avail
able.
Brought up to date. labor rela-
tons are very complicated. Labor
today does not just deal with who
shall work. when they shall work.
how they shall work, or what they
shall receive; rather labor prob

For instance. labor plays a very
important part in the birthrates
of the world: in the mechanization
of the world; in the distribution
of power used per capita; In the
distribution of the comforts and
utilities. in the average working
hours for the world; in the llteracy

The American Fraternal Union is member Of the
Slovene Section of the Jugosav Relief Committee and is
represented by member of the Supreme Board in the
Slovene American National Council The Relief Commit

The AFU Supreme Board is of the seriousness
and need of both national organizations and wishes that
both will progress and achieve their ultimate aims
In order for the Slovene people in America to have
complete trust and steadfast faith in the relief committee
and defense action it is necessary to place both actions on
clear and definite stand That neither of them have
any connection cooperation with the representatives
of the Jugoslav governmentin-exe in America Lon

yelopments of the dance on Wa
terloo. Well Til give you that
in a minute, but first, ] want
YOU to read something which
is exaggerated but still nice to
read. Most of you know the
first period at Collinwood is at
800 o'clock and it might not
seem early to any one who lives
close by, but if you live about
a half hour ride from the
school you notice that it is
early. Well, the day after the
dance on Waterloo I had a diff
ficult time to get up. A horrid
alarm clock awoke me but l
Just reached over and shut it
off. As if that wasn't enough,
my mother started to call me
but just told her I'll be right
down and went off to sleep
again. After this went on for
a while I felt a terrific yank
and off came my covers. At
first I wondered what happened,
, but then a strong light was
turned on. I wouldn't take any
notice of it, so / hid my head
under the covers. Mothers voice
did the trick when she said I'd
be late if I didn't hurry. L got
up, looked at the time and no.
ticed I had only Is minutes.
Then began the race against
time, and as usual time over
took me.
Well, now to get back to the
dance. don't think I have seen
a larger crowd at Waterloo
since New Years Eve. Was it
because there was a well known

there wasn't any dance else

as concretely and factually asl
possible, the questions that in-I
terest you. Do not assume that
I already know what you can
tell me.
What, in your view, are the
chief and most interesting char
acteristics of the Serbians, Gro
atians and Slovenians? | am
interested in both positive and
negative characteristics; also in
those which may be positive un-
der one set of circumstances
and negative under another set.
Please illustrate the various
characteristics with concrete
examples Of Individual, group
or national behavior, which you
observed or which are a matter
of historical record. [ am most
eager for such concrete ma
terial.
What are your explanations
of the various characteristics?
That is, how did the peoples ac-
quire them?
How do the national charac-
teristics Of the three nations
vary, as between the various
classes in, the population, in
the several regions which made
up Yugoslavia? That is, how
does the Serb city person differ
from the Serb peasant? How
does the Bosnian Serb or Croat
differ from the Shumadiyac or
the Croat from Croatia? How
do the Dalmations differ from
inland Croatians? Et cetera.
What besides geography have
the South Slavs in common that
can be regarded as certain,
probable or possible bases for a
worthwhile cooperative and in
tegrating future for the three
nations? Please give me con-
crete illustrative incidents in
history or in your experience
which support your ideas IA
voring such future.
What are the causes, historic
Yugoslav peoples? How deep
do hose e antagonisms go?
Which are superficial, or have
been artificially stimulated,
and to what extent? By whom
For what purpose? Give illus
trations in concrete, dramatic
incidents or facts of the antag-
onisms. How have some of them
been resolved? If not, why not!
Please draw on history; better
still, on your experience and
observation.
Most Of Slovenian history is
largely Independent of Serbo'
Croatian history, while the his
tory of the Serbians and the
history of the Croatians have
interpenetrated often and fol
long periods. There were times
when trends might have de
veloped toward their becoming
