WASHINGTON Now that Con- gress has settled down to work a. gain. keep your eyes and ears open for a concerted drive 10 end the modern war between the states
 This isn't something nebuious and unimportant. It affects almost every pocketbOok in the land. What has happened is that states and groups of states have been waging increasingly an economic war d. gainst other states and other sec tions until the trade barriers reared within our own land are becoming a serious wall against the free flow of interstate trade.
 Not long before Congress ad-- journed, Rep. Emanuel Celler, Brooklyn Democrat, introduced a bill to create an Investigating com mittee on federal and state regula- tions. Some members of Congress think Celler's resolution has good chance of passage. If it does, the committee will go Into the whole business of trade barriers raised by the states. Out of it is almost cer- tain to come legislation which will force simpuftcation of interstate trade.
 Oregon's Gov. Earl Shell, Repub- lican, was well aware of this recent Iy when he said: State govern ments can make a vital contribu- tion to our postwar economy by el- iminating state barriers that pre- vent a free flow of commerce and deny people the benefits of scien- tific production advances.
 Pointing out that trade barriers stand out on the national scene like tariff walls in international trade, Oregons chief executive cautioned the state governments that they must put their own economic hous- es in order if the United States is to take its place as the world center of production and distribution.
 If the states don't act now, Governor Shell said, the federal government will" Which is exactly what a strong bloc in Congress is planning.

First Aim Of Congress Probably To Be To End
 "War'' Between States

One of the most serious phases of Che trade barrier situation is the habit of retaliatory action. One state will attempt to protect some local product from competi- sion. An adjoining or even distant state where the same product is grown OF produced will retaliate with discriminatory laws or taxes against the state they consider the original offender The vicious cycle is started and ahe exchange of punches is on. The result. the res idents of both states knocked out of produce and products they should be able to buy at reason able price and on the other hand barred from marketing their own products in sections that should be open to them
 These state barriers literally run into the hundreds, according to Frank T. Bane, executive director of the council of state governments. They include fruits, dairy products. wine grapes, interstate trucking and What-nOt
 The methods used to create them include local licensing laws, state taxes on out-of-state products. pub lie purchase preference laws. motor vehicle laws, and agricultural guar autines.
 Any move to break these down in Congress is naturally going to re- suit in another bitter states right battle. Ii may be too hot to handle, but Congressman Cellar and a mum Der of others would like to bring the fight into the open at least

 On the basis of the last published report, nearly 50.0OO of our 27400O World War II casualties are men missing in action.'

Harmon, the football star turned air ace was twice reported missing in action for long periods but today Is slugging it out with our enemies.
 Men who are captured. but have not yet been reported by the enemy through the international Red Cross are the most frequent cases of miss ing in action; especially in the Pa Cific. Others missing in action are those interned in neutral countries lmostly after forced plane land ings) those separated from their units who may wander for days even behind enemy lines before they can report; plane crews who may be living with natives in the jungles or hiding in the undergrounds of l Europe, and the unlocated dead.
 After a man has been missing a l year, military officials go over the reports. reclassify them as best they l can But there's no real reason for l d family 10 despair because they re- eeiye a telegram from the Army or l Navy that their man in service is missing. Thousands of them do turn up.
 %1 N
 In the interim, it isn't the inten. tion of the government that any family should suffer. A mans pay continues as long as the official sta. tus of missing" is maintained or the service records Benefits tC wives or dependents are continued just as if the man still were with his unit. If family or dependent al Iotments aren't in effect when the man is reported missing, they may ! be established by applications to the . Secretary of the War or Navy. Suct payments also are made by the gov. ernment for maintaining insurance i on the missing man.
 These payments are deducted from the soldiers or sailors accrued pay, but if it develops later that tht man was killed the deductions have no bearing on. the benefits paid tC | dependents or heirs
 The military departments here urge all dependents or next of kiI of men reported missing to take UT matters they don't understand with the local Red Cross or the American Legion. If these are unavailable write your congressman.

 Curate Advice; Should Consult Nearest Board

If he is qualified for henGa fits, the Board will assist him to lII4 a claim. If he needs additional work in covered employment to qualify hs will be told just how much more.
 Similarly when Q wage enrTaer dies if social security taxes have been taken from his pay, the widow ok other close relative should contact the Boards office immediately, Mir. Mullarkey said. Full assistance in completing claims will be furnished by the field office. Contacts may he made by visit, by letter or by tele- plone.
 Several retired persons who have delayed in filing claims have inform ed the Board that friends had told them they were not eligible. Mr. Mullarkey said. The best thing tu do," he added, "ls to come to our office and ask about such matters.  We have the exact information"
 While provision is made for some payments on delayed claims, delay may reduce the amount of benefits. or wipe them out entirely in some cases.
 Many wage earners of retirement age tell us that they did not realize that they may continue to earn credits toward benefits after reach ing age 65. or that they may work in covered employment, even after benefits start, without sacrificing their retirement insurance rights. l" MT. Mullarkey said.
 '"The true facts are that wage earner may qualify for retirement benefits at any age above 65, and that he merely gives up his benefits for those months in which he makes as much as $l5 in covered employ ment. He might work one month and give up his benefit. and not work the next month and receive his benefit"

LABOR DEMANDING
 WAGE GUARANTEE
CIO Units Open Campaign to Break Little Steel
 Formula"

The wage freeze order is the only phase of President Roosevelt's seven point economic stabilization order that has been enforced, David J. Mcdonald, secretary of the Steel workers Union told 300 c. l. O.. members meeting at Buckingham hall last night as part of a drive against the little steel" formula.
 The meeting also heard vigorous attacks on Senator John A. Dana her and Congressman Clare Boothe Luce by Thomas Burns, assistant to Sidney Hillman, national c. l. o. political action director.
 MT Mcdonald told the meeting that the average steel worker goes into debt every week because of the discrepancy between living costs and wages.
 He outlined the Steelworkers' pro- gram for a guaranteed annual wage" for a two-year period after the war. Industry, he said, has been guaranteed, through the tax laws, a guaranteed income for the period, and farmers are assured of receiv- HE pIlCCo OA INV PCA OSAAs VI pNAASy after the war. Labor should seek similar guarantees, he said.
 The meeting, sponsored by the Greater Waterbury Industrial Union Council, adopted a resolution att tacking candidates for the Fifth district congressional nomination who are known enemies of labor" and urged congressional delegates to party conventions to reject those candidates whose election would be a threat to the welfare of labor"
 The resolution pointed out that the Fifth district is pre-ponderant- ly a labor district, with working men comprising the great propor- ton of the citizenry. Consequently it said, proper representation of these people in Washington de- mands a representative who is fav- orable to labor; it is only logical to have a labor interested representa- tive representing labor.

 GETS MACHINERY
Equipment Needed to Com. pIete War Contracts,
 Court Informed

Machinery owned by the Benrus watch Company and held by Kamco of Waterbury, now in rec celvership, will be returned to the owner, according to an agreement made by counsel this morning and an order issued by Superior Court Judge Edward J. Quinlan.
 The court was informed yester- day that the machinery, valued at few hundred dollars, is necessary for large contracts held by the Ben- rus concern. It was pointed out a million dollars worth of production may be held up if the machinery is not returned.
 No objection to the request was made by Attorney Alfred l.. Finkle- stein, who was appointed temporary receiver of Kameo two days ago. Attorney Herman A. Weisman rep resented the Benrus company.
