HEALTH GUARDS SHOULD
BE OBSERVED STRICTLY

single act of carelessness in observ-
ance of fundamental health rules may
mean, and often brings on, dire calami
ties to entire communities. Then follow
human woes and suffering, not 10 men
ton monetary losses through loss in time.
No community is immune from the ne
cessity for observing rules OF sanitation
and cleanliness Some have need for
strictar rules and forcible observance. In
addition to the need to keep streets. alleys
and premises cleared of articles subject
to putrefaction, it is necessary 10 be keen
ly alert to spoilation of foods more
marked in heated periods. 1t is up to the
individual to guard food supplies in
homes, but it becomes an official chore to
see that the sanitary rules are observed
and this in particular applies right now
to supplies exposed to the heat and to
wind and dust and so on. 1t would not
be amiss to undertake frequent surveys
of alleys and narrow passages right here
in our own city. There are evidences of
sheer carelessness in many places in per-
hitting putrefiad articles to be scattered
about.

LET'S BACK UP POSTWAR
COMMITTEE TO LIMIT

Citizens of Imperial Valley acclaim the
whiz with which the countrywide commit
tee entrusted with formulating and car
rying to success a comprehensive post
war agricultural, industrial and construc-
ton program, got off to a start at Its
organization meeting Tuesday night. Rep
resenting every section and every interest
of the entire county, the committee means
business. 1t should, and will have the
sound intelligent and active support OF
each and every citizen.
Once organized and its detectives clear
ly outlined, the committee got right INTO
the collar and there can be no doubt OF
wide-sweeping results. AS one member
put it when we succeed in seeing one
project through that means 100 per cent
success" and then ION to the next for an
other 100 per cent success Clearly the
program mapped out calls for selecting
permanent projects, marshaling forces
so that each one is assured of completion
as they move to the next.
The committee members are to be con
graduated for their vigorous planning
and praised for their courage in tackling
a gigantic undertaking. an undertaking
of more moment than any other single
situation since the completion of the All
American canal. Especially is the COM
mttee to be lauded for its determination
to cast aside any make-shift project. In
setting the stakes thus, the communities
we'll can afford to lend all possible sup
port since it is as easy to build perman-
emily and to fit the development process
in the county as it is to be content with
meeting a need with a temporary pro-
gram.
Keenlv the committee members recog
nize the need to spend wisely; to get a
dollars value for a dollar. They recog
nize the fact that the time of unlimited
funds is not to run on into the postwar
era. Program builders who have to do
with approving and allocating funds will
demand a blueprint down to the last
cent and on this line will scrutiniZe all
requests with unusual care. And it is
commendable that the Valley planners
fully are in tune with this attitude and
this procedure.
Truly Imperial Valley stands at the
doorway of progress and opportunity.
Most emphatically everyone also fully
realizes and appreciates the immediate
need to lay speedily the foundation for
establishment after the war; of being
ready in every way to receive the return
ing service men with job or opportuni-
ty waiting-not promises.
And our postwar planning group is on
the job. Let's back these men, all busy
men in their own affairs, to the limit.

DO WE HAVE FREE

A rejection by the Seventh Circuit
Court of Appeals in Washington Oh
free speech" plea offered by the Rell-
ance Manufacturing Co. of huntington
West Virginia. in defending its publlca-
ton of newspaper advertisements direct.
ed to members of the International
Ladies Garment Workers Union on the
eve of an employe union election ruled
the concern in violation of the National
Labor Relations Act. Less than two
months ago. however, the Third United
States Court of Appeals sitting in Phlla-
delphia held in effect, in the case arising
out of the activities of the Edward u.
Budd Manufacturing Co. in sending let
tiers to its $4,000 employees under similar
circumstances, that an employer may dis
cuss labor union affairs with workers
without violating the Wagner Act. ms
earlier court hearing was described by
the N.L.R.B.'S own attorney as test
case covering such questions and, con-
sidering the previous refusal OF the Su-
preme Court to order the company to
''stop interfering" with union attempts to
organize the Budd employees, that seemed
an accurate statement.
The employer does nave or does not
have the free speech" right of address
ing his employees on union matters de-
pending upon the court Interpretation OF
ones choice. 1t is but another one OF
those contradictions in labor and other
affairs taken on by the New Deal that
have kept the public befuddled for more
than a decade. The Supreme Court, 1t Is
plain, will eventually have to pass on an
issue that. like this one, keeps bobbing up
in the lesser tribunals. Freedom Of eX-
PRECISION in America is, indeed, no minor
issue.
P.S.-These comments were crowded
out by others on important war develop
ments when written earlier in the week.
So now, a couple of days later there has
been another opinion on this mattar-ln
which the employers right to a bit of
''free speech" is again affirmed. An en-
ployer may appeal to the gratitude of his
workers in suggesting that they do not
organize a union provided that appeal
implies no threat of withdrawal of en-
ploye benefits in the event they do, says
a United States Court of Appeals de-
cision that was rendered in Washington
on Wednesday in case involving the
Peter J. Schweitzer Corp. of New York.
"Certainly it cannot be claimed that an
employer would be guilty of an unfair
labor practice because he treated his en-
ployes well in order to forestall union
movement" this opinion. written by JUS
tice Thurman Arnold, former chief of the
Justice Department antitrust division,
says This may be a strong argument
against unionization," Justice Arnold
points out, but the labor relations act
would seemingly give the employer the
right to choose between these considra-
tons"

''The passing of John Paul Nall,

There are two different ways -,

it differs from the airplane ana
autogiro is that it does not has
the conventional type of propell9
