An Abiding Peace
Common Sense Treatment

Books on the postwar world can
almost be described as the only
commodity Of which there is now
surplus production, but this is one
-"Towards an Abiding Peace"-that
can be taken seriously. R. M. Mac
liver, professor in Columbia univer-
sity, for one thing writes a clear,
simple unprofessorial language, say
ing what he means directly and with
out qualifications.
He is for a world order but is too
practical to believe you can have
it by just writing a world constitu-
ton. He wants temporary peace
which in a way carries on from the
war alliance, and then a second
stage in which we move to real in
ternational control. Furthermore,
he thinks that sooner or later our
present enemies must be taken in
unless we are going to let the third
World war slowly tester.
An International order is an inter-
national order to Mr.. MacIver.
There are no weasel words.
Mr.. MacIver has worked out his
plans in some detail. There is lot
of common sense in Towards an
Abiding Peace"-on a subject on
which a good deal Of pretentious
philosophizing is being done.

ASPHALT TILE

Question: What can I use to re-
move wax and shellac from the
black asphalt tile floor in our bath
room? And, what would give the
floor a nice shine that would not
show white water spots, footprints,
etc.? We used both shellac and wax
on the floor, and it looks milky in
places.
Answer: To start with, a black
floor is next to impossible to keep
clean, and there is nothing made
that will prevent the dust from show
ing on black or other dark, deep
colored floor. There is always some
dust on the soles of your shoes and
when you walk over such floors
footprints are bound to appear. A
mat or rug at or near the door may
help. Water turns shellac white, and
the asphalt tile should not have been
coated with it; in fact, asphalt tile
should never be painted, vanished
or shellacked. You may have diff
ficulty in removing the shellac. Take
q tile in an obscure corner and try
rubbing with denatured alcohol and
fine steel wool. If the surface or col
or is not affected, proceed with the
rest Of the floor. Should the tile
show signs of being affected by the
alcohol, you will have to use a slow
er but safer method; that is, by
scrubbing the floor with securing
powder when the floor needs a clean
ing. This will, in time, remove the
shellac. When polishing asphalt tile
use only self-polishing non-rubbing
wax or a vegetable wax.

roads. To say that Washington was

been that there were too many

ing statements which come out Of
Washington is that there are too

Leatherette.

Question: My baby's carriage is
navy blue leatherette, and the hood
has developed gray streaks, as
though the dye had come off. Can
the hood be refnished. and If so,
how to do it?
Answer: If the leatherette is in
bad condition, you would do well to
replace it with new piece. If you
do not wish to do so, however, you
may get fair results by coating the
leatherette with a good quality
enamel, used as it comes in the
can. OF course, the surface must
be washed with mild soap and water,
rinsed and wiped dry. After allow
ing several hours for thorough dry
ing Of the surface, wipe with tulrpen-
tine and apply the enamel.
Dickenson County herald. [volume] (Clintwood, Va.) 1939-195?, 1944-01-27

many cooks. And yet, we have that
paradox that when there are too
many people handling war prob
lens, the only cure so far has been
to substitute too few-to pass the
buck to one mantle President. The
answer to that is that one man
simply cannot do it all.
The war is too far away from us.
We cannot lay aside our personal
and natural desire to make as much
money out Of it as the next fellow.
This has gone on from the begin
ning-employer, making his profits,
essential labor demanding and get
ting his high wages, the farmer, his
incentive, and then those who fol-
low after, shouting, ''you did it for
them, do it for mel"
Not one group is blameless, only
those who have been unable to bring
pressure, hesitated to do so. And,
for the most part, each group sim
cerely believing that it was getting
no more than its just due, the rest
were the profteers, the chiselers.
The solution?
At this writing, National Service
Act that will order who does what
and for how much-just as it is in
the army.

involving wage and price boosts,
Messrs. Byrnes and Vinson, were
not accustomed to the sound. They
did not know that a labor leaders
bark is often worse than his bite.
('There never was the faintest
possibility of an actual walkout on
the nations railroads." - William
Green.)
Messrs. Byrnes and Vinson be-
ieved what they heard and it was
plenty.
That experience, I think I can
say, is authentic. The labor lead
ers emphatically and enthusiastical-
ly threatened, Messrs. Vinson and
Byrnes took the warning growl for
real threat. Others of the Presi-
dents council were convinced that
there was excuse enough to do
something which they thought would
be advantageous for political rea-
sons.
And so finally, the man with the

washington, ~. ".
Why did the President order the
army to take over the railroads?
You can get seven reasons from
seven different presidential advisors.
I won't repeat them. will name
three.
First, the epitome of those the po-
litically minded probably gave; it
will be good thing for 1914. That
is the sum total of number Of con-
illusions of the master minds who
are advising concerning the political
campaign which is ahead of us.
There are two other reasons which
some of the time-hardened officials
in Washington offer (aside from the
threat, real or fancied, to the war eff
fort). These officials let the political
stream flow over them. They are
more Interested in getting the par
ticular job assigned to them done
than figuring out its political effects.
Needless to say, they belong to that
large, conscientious army which
most people outside Of Washington
forget exists, an army of people
wise or unwise in their judgments
but. beholden to no political party
for their positions.
These are the two probable rea-
sons they offered; first:
The roads were seized as threat
against other industrialists who
might make trouble in accepting
terms of future labor wage deci-
sions, such demands for increases
which can't be easily lodged (per-
haps just demands, perhaps not,
depending on who holds the scales).
The second reason offered is this:
Simply because many of the Pres
ident's present labor advisors have
had little or no experience in labor
relations, in the methods Of labor
leaders.
Misunderstanding
~ There are number of signs which
might point to reason one as the one
which turned the scales, but, like
most Of the other motivating forces
in many. of the recent labor deci-
sions, they spring from the same
soil as does reason two: misunder-
standing Of the methods Of labor
leaders.
You will recall that William
. Green, A. F. of l.. chieftain, when
he made what since seems to have
been an ill-starred attack on the
Marshall statement that threats Of
strikes might prolong the war, stat
ed fatty that the railroad unions had
never intended to strike.
That statement isn't questioned in
spite of the angry denials Of the
railroad union leaders. It is what
you heard in every railroad Office
from every old time councillor and
advisor in Washington before the
roads were taken over.
Unfortunately, the whole situation
is reminiscent Of the conversation
concerning the dog. The dog
growled. The owner said, Don't
be frightened, I know he won't bite
YOU" But" replied his friend,
''does the dog know it,"
You see the friend had no under
standing Of dogs.
# you had slipped into the White
House on q certain day not long
before the deadline for the strike
call of the so-called recalcitrant un-
ions (enginemen and fremen, and
conductors) had been reached, you
too might have been alarmed. The
union Representatives Il am told)
were making noise very much like
q dog that is going to bite.
Now the old timers were used to
the noise. But the two gentlemen

Rusty Hot Water

Question: I have a hot water tank
connected with my oil fred boiler.
1t is practically new, and for the
past year the water has been rusty.
I clean it out every two or three
days. How can prevent it?
Answer: At present do not know
of any available material that would
be helpful. A copper or monel metal
storage tank in place of the rusty
one would be your remedy, but J
am afraid you will have to put up
with this condition until after the

NEW CISTERN

A readers suggestion-'Tn a re-

question as to how to keep water
in a new cistern from being hard
at first. Several years ago we made
a new cistern of brick and were told
to paint the entire surface with wa
ter glass diluted not more than half.
We never were bothered with the
water being hard, and it seems to
me it would be as effective in a
cement cistern. Of course, it should
become dry before letting water in"

pattern set for the invasion OF
Germany, according 10 General
HanSell.
Time schedules will Of course
vary. II has taken year and a
half Of long range bombing TO
soften up Germany 10 the point
where it is ripe for invasion.
That softening-up process has
consisted largely in body blows
al the centers of German indus
try, knocking out aircraft pro-
duction plants, refinerieS, and
the key war production centers.
How long it will take TO soften
up Japan remains TO be seen,
but the first bombing raids on
Japan by B-29 bombers, based
at undisclosed points in the
China-India theater, are but the
beginning of what will unques-
tionably be series of frequent
and similah attacks which will
increase in intensity as the

ces move TO within closer range

In keeping command of the

the various theater command
ers, it is not the intention to
have the BIOS operate on an
