New Owner Must
 Take Over Contract

Change in ownership of a plant will not be held by WLB as bar to con- tinuing union shop if it had become so under the prior owner, the board stated this week.
 With industry members dissenting, the board directed the Frank Foun- dries Corp, Muncie, Ind, to enter in to contract containing the same un- ion shop provision under which its predecessor company, the Borg-War- ner Corp, had operated.

to help pay a.. consumers grocery
oil and to regiment and socialize
the farmers of this nation"
The War Food administration,
charged with carrying out the war
farm program, has no publicity plan.
AS matter of fact. the Office of
Administrator Jones is about the
Quietest place in Washington as far
as the public goes. It's work is car.
ried on without press agenting right
now.
One reason why we don't hear
much from the war food admins
traitor right now is because the food
situation is pretty good. OF course.
there is wrangling about prices but
that isn't in his department. The
last week in January he announced
his support prices which can't be
carried out unless the three billion
dollar agency that keeps floors
under farm prices. the Commodity
Credit corporation. is continued.
Jones made it plain that the 1914
program depended entirely on con.
gressional action. In reply to a
question, he said it could be carried
out without subsidies"
There isn't any question that con.
gress will favor the support plan.
That's accepted as essential in war
time and sometimes welcomed at
other times. The reasoning is that
you don't ask a munition maker to
sign contract to deliver machine
guns without telling him what the
price will be. In order to carry out
the farm program. you have to de.
mand certain things of the farmer
in order to get the thing you want
Hence the guaranteed price.
But subsidies are a horse of a
different color. Support prices pro-
tect the producer Subsidies protect
the consumer. Without them, the
price ceilings crack.
Farm income has risen ll6 per
cent in dollars since 1899 when the
war in Europe began. During the
last war, it rose steadily, 1913 per
cent. However. there is a catch IN
those figures. In the last war, the
farmers dollar rose only 13 cents
in purchasing power Today, the
farmers income has risen 72 per
cent in terms Of purchasing power.
Preliminary Report
Just what is ahead? On or before
February II, debate will begin on
the bill extending the life of the Com
modify Credit corporation containing
an anti-subsidy provision.
Meanwhile. the farm bloc adher-
ents and supporters will probably
carry on pretty good publicity plan
for their side and some of the con-
sumer groups will be heard from.

3anized group. 1t is a strange
.ng, but America, which has or
lnizations of almost every kind and
description formed largely for in
creasing the income of its members,
has very few organizations formed
for the purpose of decreasing their
expense. Consumers, as such, are
not organized. There are, of course,
few cooperatives but they are
hardly more than local affairs and,
comparatively speaking, small and
weak. This is due to the cheerful
American theory that if you haven't
got enough money to pay your ex-
penses. you ought to go out and get
some more money
In any case, labor (although or
ganized primarily to get more pay)
is going to use its organized strength
to fight higher prices and the ad-
ministration is at present counting
on enough support from the labor
lobby itself, the results of the pro-
subsidy publicity on the general pub
lie. to sustain a presidential veto of
any measure banning subsidies.
There is no sign of enough votes to
prevent the passage of the bill, but
enough are expected to sustain the
veto. So that legislative process will
have to be gone through with unless
the farm bloc feels it has an accu-
rate measure of the administration

votes, so that it can compromise
without going through the veto proc
ess. Either way. some kind of a
compromise will undoubtedly be
reached.
But the way is a weary one.

Americans Use Rocket Guns"

While we hear much about rocket-guns that the
Germans are using, few Americans stop to think that
the "bazooka" used tank destroyer represents
early American use of rocket artillery.
From the South Pacific comes information that
rocket guns used from ships at the New Britain
landings at Arawe and Cape Gloucester and at Saidor
New Guinea.
Correspondents say that at Arawe the rockets
burned everything wide of the beaches and
that at Saidor the entire landing literally covered
with flames before the troops reached the beach.
1t might be good idea for Americans, when they
read about German rocket devices, to remember that
these weapons deliver powerful explosive without the
weight of heavy artillery. This that rocket
weapons be utilized from ships and that, because
of reduced weight greater explosive force be hurled
against beach positions.

Less Paper
For Packages

Fewer package wrappings will
be available for retail shoppers
this year, according to WPB.
Shortage of wood pulp for paper
making will not permit normal
supply. There will be enough bags
for assorted groceries, WPB said,
if housewives save these bags and
take them back to stores for their
own reuse. WPB also advised
that the shopping bag with han

WNU Service, Union Trust Building,
Washington, d. c.
A few weeks ago, an earnest and
agreeable young man came to my
Office from the American Farm Bu-
reau federation. His name is Ben
Kilgore. He is Kentucky Farm
bureau man, former farm paper
editor who has just been put in
charge of the bureaus publicity here
in Washington, probably as result
of some remarks without any bark
on them which Chester Davis, for
mer war food administrator and
president of the Federal Reserve
Bank of st. Louis, made at the re-
cent bureau convention.
Davis did not say that the bureau
and some other farm organizations
were interfering with the war effort
and trying to be hoggish by fighting
for higher food prices but he did say
that the people of the country we're
beginning to talk that way about
farmers. And he told the organiza-
ton members that if they weren't
as black as they were painted, they
had better begin telling the people
of the country so.
And so the bureau went out for
some new blood" Kilgore is not
new to the farm bureau but he is
new to Washington. He has served
in Kentucky. He knows his SUBJ
iect and can write about it.
couldn't say whether he has
frightened the grim picture which
Mr.. Davis painted to the bureau
he has hardly had time-but his
presence is evidence of dynamics
which are energizing this chip of
the farm bloc-or one might put it
the other way, for the Farm Bureau
federation is really the tail that wags
the dog when it comes to getting
congressional action.
And soon action will begin, for the
grace extended to the Commodity
Credit corporation expires February
II and then the fight over the subsi-
dies begins in earnest.
The Federation Line
What the publicity plans of the
farm organizations are. l do not
know, but this is the Zine" as Kill
gore expressed it to me:
''The American Farm Bureau fed
Grafton is not opposing consumer
subsidies in order to break down
price control and obtain higher farm
prices. The present general farm
price level is high enough. All we
ask is for few sensible price ad-
justments on specific commodities
Such small and specific adjust
ments are far more practical and
wholesome than a billion or more
collars out Of the federal treasury

Aerial Accidents

The Training Command of the U. S. Army Air
Force reveals that during the eleven months from jan
uary 1st 1943 to November 30 1943, students of the
Command flew average of 25,600 hours per fatal
accident.
This is reassuring fact because the public is often
misled by the publicity given fatal accidents
To understand better the factor of safety involved
it is necessary to break down the 600 hours into days
This would flying eight hours per day for
than eight years for every fatal accident.

New Weapons In War

While new weapons have not played decisive role
in the present should not overlook the develop

Undoubtedly, under actual battle conditions
have discovered that improvements are possible and
these doubt, have been made. Moreover, there is
lesser of metal in explosives and greater reliance
upon increased explosive qualities of chemicals.
There is reported, from the Pacific area revived
of the explosive bullet which the Japanese employ
in airplane guns. The enemy excuses its use of this
outlawed bullet by asserting that its main objective
is to damage aircraft.
How many Americans remember how they smiled
at stories from Germany telling of the shortages of
critical materials?
