 Mrs. Luce told Q meeting of the Greenwich Womens COP Club that invited along with other Congress. men with good labor records" and that "Mr. Thomas explained to me that the purpose of the PAC was political education and that 1t would support candidates with liberal, pro-lahor records.

illegal if committed by anyone else. Certainly public indignation doesn't to do much good as far as James Petrillo of the American Federation of Musicians, is concerned.
 Petrillo you will remember, has banned the mak- ing of recordings and transcriptions by musicians of his union because the principal record making con- panies refuse to pay Petrillos union special tax on every record sold. Taxation ordinarily is the governments own little monopoly.
 If the record companies give in and allow the shakedown then, of course, the amount of the shake down is added to the price of the records and the public pays just like the ultimately pays excise tax.
 On June 15, Petrio ordered by the National Labor Board to withdraw it's ban on the making of photograph records. He ignored this order" Re- gently President Roosevelt wrote to Petrillo asking him to please as a special favor to the President, yield and remove the ban Petrilo has decided not to comply with this request also.
 The Administration contends that nothing can be done about it.
 This seems to be strange thing. few months earlier when Montgomery Ward and Company ignored
 War Labor Board order, troops sent in to take the company.

CHAuTEMps NO VICENTE

Not many people realize it but Camille Chautemps, former Pre- mier of France, has been living in Washington for four years. At first he was looked upon with suspicion as the Vichy representative of Pe- tain, and there is no question that Petain did help to facilitate his escape from France. Chautemps and his family, including one very small baby, escaped in small fish ing boat and had an extremely rough time before they finally got out of the invading Nazisi clutches.
 Gradually, as he remained here, Chautemps has convinced friends that he is anything but a Vichyite, despite his personal gratitude to Petain for helping him escape.
 During his stay here, the ex- Premier has been financially hard up, has supported his family by giving lectures. However, several times he has turned down fat lec- ture fees because he was expected to criticize certain things about the Roosevelt Administration or the United States.
 Now, however, Chautemps' finan- cial troubles are solved The baby who weathered the stormy seas when Chautemps escaped is now four years old and very preco- cious young lady. So much so that she has just signed a contract as Hollywood's youngest and newest star.

 Meanwhile, the insurance com panies almost won out in another way A bill exempting insurance from the antitrust laws was passed last spring by the House and re- ported favorably by the Senate Judiciary Committee over the viz orous objection of Wyoming's trust hating Senator Joe O'Mahoney. Be- cause it was arousing a storm of controversy in the Senate, Ma jority Leader Barcley agreed that the bill should not be brought ur until after the election.
 Last month, however. at the Senate's final session, this bill turned up on the consent calendar which is composed mainly of per sonal suits against the government which are considered passed if nc objection is made as they are read
 No one paid much attention tC what bills were being presented and strange as it seems, the muct controverted insurance bill went

NATIONAL WAR FUND

As the end of the period set aside in Juneau for the collection of contributions to the National War Fund draws near, it is probable that many residents who would contribute if contacted, have been over looked.
 Many generous contributions have been received from the large businesses of Juneau but is the little contributor who raises the bulk or the money in any such campaign You may not think that your 90 cents or dollar or five dollars will mean much, but the small contributions make such a drive suc- ceSsful not.
 So if you have not been visited by the solicitor you can send your contributions to Jack Fletcher Baranof Hotel.
