Tell What You Stand For

Private industrial management in this war has come to be regarded with wonder and respect the world over, but it must soon cross it's own Siegfried line of public opinion if this esteem is to be maintained through the reconverSion period ahead. During the war industry rose to posi- tion of high public favor for the reason people could readily sense that mass pro- auction was performing task for their own good. Everybody has come to know what industry stands for in war.
 But Paul Garrett, vice president of General Motors, doubts that many people yet understand what industry stands for in peace Cited as the individual con- sidered by members of the National ASso- citation of Public Relations Counsel, Inc, to have done most to improve the tech nique and application of public relations through top flight proficiency from the professional standpoint during the past year, Mr. Garrett said, in accepting the award, that the next great challenge to men of management will be to interpret their peacetime contributions to people in terms of their own benefits. Unfortu- nately, management is known too often not by what it stands for but by what it has been thought to stand against.
 Right now everything is rosy. But the collapse of Germany will put industry up against many new dragon teeth blocks in public opinion People will be impa- tient They will not understand all the complications for company in shifting quickly from war production to Simul- taneous production of both peace and war goods with Japan still in the picture. That will not be simple for highly in- tegrated company. But it is the meshing in of many interdependent operations of many companies that provides the com plicationS and the strengths of mass pro- duction. And, in a democracy like ours, these real and imagined blocks must be met just the same and dissolved so far as public opinion is concerned.
 In saying that men of industry too long have been thought of by the public not as standing for things but rather in connection with things they were thought to be against, MT. Garrett pointed to the danger of negative attitudes. It is our job to make clear, he said, that industry stands for capitalism as the best means known to release individual initiative, for the vitality of competitive enterprise to develop opportunities for many ln the land, for incentive rewards to spur men OH, AOI 41ASu wages 44nuC POooAOAC IA1A o~6AA efficiency and Increased productivity, for the equities of all individuals and groups concerned, for the growth of many small businesesses through the development of natural networks of independent enter priseS where various units mutually sus- tain each other, for the development of managerial know-how and for research and an ever-advancing technology in every phase of the business. Through these approaches lies the one sure route to progress and to more new products at ever lower prices and with ever more job opportunities for all.

A Thought for Today
Waterbury. Democratic Candidates

These are days when experience is among the most necessary of factors, particularly in matters of state affairs. Experience is a qualification held in major share by Waterbury's Democratic candidates seeking election tomorrow Probate Judge Patrick Healey, senatorial candidates Edward P. Egan and Patrick Wallace and state representatives Daniel J. Mahaney and John Membrino.
 These are men whose experience stems from legislative and administrative back grounds, factors greatly needed in the days to come following this war. They have proven themselves to be men whose first interests are those of the people they serve Their past records both as. Legislators and administrators in private business have borne proof of these state ments.
 We urge the people of this city to sup port these men as potential officials best able to cope with the problems of state legislative affairs, which will arise to affect not only Waterbury but the entire State of Connecticut.
 It is not only our duty to vote tomor- row but it is our duty to vote for the RbleSt.

JAIL REPORT
(New Haven Journal Courier) r.,,..o.1. rs~ r,a,.1 x1.~k A

NANCW 41@FCA4 COuAAAo4 SO0AAO@( -
 Inuasmuch as Referee Carl Foster studied the evidence in the investi- gation of conditions at the County Jail for 29 days before making his report. it is reasonable to presume that period of study will also be required by the judge who examines it. Therefore an immediate disposi- tion of the report should not be looked for by the public.
 This necessary study period will likely delay decision beyond the election of November. While there is no suggestion that the report has any relevance to the current cam paign, it is just as well to insure that no part of it Is dragged in un- necessarily.
 Whether after a full study Judge McEvoy, or Judge Comely, who or dered the investigation, will release the report of Referee Foster to the public cannot be answered now However, it seems probable that the testimony will not be released. The testimony was taken under condi- tions comparable to those of a grand jury inquiry, and in the latter case the transcript remains secret. What the public may expect, however. i a statement from the judge whc officially passes upon the report This statement might indicate hi' own conclusions or those of Ref cree Foster or the course of action that is recommended.

Views Of The Press

by bus soon after V-day. Although few details have been disclosed, the Greyhound System reports that it is going to put vehicles greatly im- proved as to cCrIfort, safety and convenience by the use of plastics and other like materials on it's cross-country routes.
 For city-type busSes, Mack Truck reports improvements in design for postwar models which show that engineers have put special stress on the comfort and health of riders. One feature which is to be incorpor- ate6 in its after-war models is com- bined air. onditioning and heating to assure fresh air in all parts of the vehicle. Those passengers who have roasted in front and frozen in the rear of some old busses are sure to appreciate the change. Another in- novation is a de-gassing device to provide for more complete combus- .tion. This is expected to eliminate most of the vapors which often filter irto. the passenger areas of today's busSes. Insulation against heat and noise, safety treads on door steps. better visibility, including. oblong windows at eye level for straphang- CTS. and elimination of jerks and jolts by the use of automatic trans mission and torque converter drive are among other innovations to which the bus rider of tomorrow may look forward.

earth and hath determined the bounds of their habitation." The theory of a master race and the spirit of banditry which caused armies to pour across frontiers and fasten themselves like leeches upon defenseless populations, presume to justify such actions by blatant denial that God hath made the nations of one blood and hath ap- pointed the bounds of their habita- tion.
 But we too have departed from these same Biblical standards. When Manchuria was taken and Ethiopia ravaged, we shrugged our shoulders and said, Are we our brothers keeper?" So both sides bear their share of the guilt, even though we feel that the enemy bears a much heavier burden than we do.
 Certainly we shall not come to equilibrium in this tossed

Facing Facts in China

The recall of General Stilwell forces realistic facing of situation in China which most of us have tried to minimize or overlook This has been easy to do. Few Americans have been in China. Few have tried to understand the vast social, economic, political and psychological complexities of Chinese life. And for those who have tried, China'S remote ness and tight censorship have made such an understanding difficult. We have preferred simply to admire China in her brave and difficult war against the invader. It has been easy to admire GeneralisSimo and Madame Chiang Kai- sE1ek unreservedly as symbols of the new united China, and to believe that they have rallied whole people into a single hearted effort and created the democracy of Sun Yet-Sen'S dreams
 But books and dispatches by reputable writers returning from China have, in recent years, painted a less idealiStic picture. They have told of reactionaries (Some call them faSciStS and pro-Japan- ese) who are high in the Chiang govern nent and exert strong influence on the GeneralisSimo. They have told of GeS- tapo-like police, of concentration camps, of bad military leadership, extreme social discrimination, opposition to general education, and suppression of free speech. And they have told pretty thoroughly the story of tragic civil war that con- tinues despite the interruption of Japan ese invasion. They have estimated as high as 5O0,000 the body of crack Central Government troops which are immobilized for the purpose of immobilizing the ex- cellent Communist armies, now reduced to guerrilla warfare against the Japs.
 Most of these writers, whatever their political complexion, have returned from visits to the Communist border region filled with admiration for the spirit, CO., operation and democratic life which they found there, and appalled, by the pitiful lack of means to carry on the fight. And most of the writers have blamed the Cen tral Government for failing to help and for continuing the civil strife.
 Since General Stilwell probably knows China as well as any American, it is quite likely that Vinegar Joe" may have ut tered some acidulouS observations on the present situation which led to his ac- knOwledged feud with the Generalissino. And since Chang is head of the state there was only one course open when he asked for General Stilwell's recall.
 But the Generals recall does not erase the causes of the feud. And this gov- ernment is scarcely in a position to threaten withdrawal of aid in order to force government reorganization or settling of internal differences in China. For the war in China is as much ours as it is China's. To defeat Japan we shall certainly have to fight and win in China.
 It will be hard fight. And the poli- cies of what Brooks Atkinson, the New York Times Chungking correspondent, calls "moribund anti-democrat re- eime" in China may one day be trans lated into an added toll of American lives on some beachhead of the China Sea.

AS A MATTER OF FACT

The important thing is Election Day. That is the major event in November of the year 1944. Then comes Thanksgiving day with many less serious, but none theless important events following. Edu- cation Week is currently observed and the out-of-door person is concerned with dog trials, hunting quail, pheasant, and so on. For the dogs of many breeds it's action in the field trials, Daschunds and beagles as important as Republicans and Democrats.

WHY CHILDREN HAVE EN-
 LARGER TONSILS

From the scaracter or type of tissue composing the tonsfls (both the ordinary visible throat tonsils and the third tonsil hidden from view up behind the soft, palate commonly known as esadenoids' when enlarged) 1t seems that the main purpose or function of the tonsils is to guard or protect against invasion by disease germs.
 - Nodules, collections or patches of the same type of tissue as that composing the tonsils (adenoid or lynphoid tissue = 8 framework or entwork of connective tissue con- taining masses of round cells iden- tical with the small white blood corpuscles) occur in other parts of the body as well as in the tonsils-- for instance in the lymph nodes or glands" which when enlarged in any situation are commonly called "kernelS"; in the spleen; in the so- litary and aggregate nodules in the interestines known as Peyer'S plaques or patches, characteristically ulcerated iii typhoid fever; and in the red bone marrow throughout the body. There is even a ring Of this same adenoid or lumphoid tis- sue around the base of the apperl- dix.
 Wherever such adenoid or lynl- phoid tissue occurs its purpose or function is to guard against infec- tion.
 It is my opinion, and merely mine, for perhaps a majority of good physicians do not share it, that enlargement of the tonsils (visible anl hidden) in children is in the great majority of cases 2 physiological and normal state which calls for no treatment.
 Recently I noticed how rarely an inquiry concerning croup comes in the mail nowadays, whereas twenty or thirty years ago & good many such inquiries came to this depart mena. I hopefully inferred that maybe at last a little fresh air and exposure was getting to the children, but half a dozen moth CTS informed me that was wrong about it, as their children and others in the neighborhood gel croup at the drop of 8 barometer thermometer or hat.
 'If I'm wrong in thinking and hoping that spasmodic or So-calleo simple catarrhal croup is much less frequent today than it was when I was a country doctor in up- state New York, then it might be well for all readers, to ignore my present opinion that enlarged ton- sils in children are generally nor mal. They're your kids, and this is free country. If you ask me ] say I believe enlarged tonsils and adnoids should be regarded as an indication that the child is reason able capable of maintaining immun- ity to the cri. Provided, of course, that the enlargement does not Seri- ously obstruct breathing. When nor nal breathing ehrough the nose is impaired by enlarged tonsils or adenoids, then I say out with them.
