Squad Pinned

That brisk March morning when
the croSsfire pinned his squad
down in a pocket and White had
to get them out one at a time
he almost believed nothing could
hurt hlm-so that he didn't even
know when he was hit.
Waiting TO the last White had
worked has way back 10 find HIM
self with another company and
was standing beside this unknown
lieutenant pointing out the enemy
maChinegunS when the IS shell
burst p yards away hurting
Shrapnel over them and pieces INT
the lieutenant IN the neck. Artie
and the others tried desperately
10 check the bleeding in the
Officers neck. but ne died in two
minutes before their eyes.
White. a SiX-foOter then. weigh
ing 1875 pounds. had picked up a
man with Shrapnel in his side,
leg and foot and carried him
the way they taught him when
he was studying for the New York
.copS-a mile and a half TO a first
aid station.
And yet, six weeks later White
was back in his outfit without
missing A battle, and pushing on
into TuniSia
Lying there blinking into the
noon sun he thinks about this
and how the leg never bothered
him through the long campaign
in Sicily 10 Nj Etna. and he tried
hard 10 move MS legs until sweat

morning before daylight 10 reach

retreat.

Arte knew he was hit only
because ne found himself lying
on his back staring into the hot

Pretty Please, MT. Petrillo!
(NeW York Timesl


 The letter of the President to James c. Petrilo, head of the American Federation of Musicians, illus trates once the double standard of the Ad- ministration in dealing with disputes between unions and employers Mir Petrillo has defied an order of the War Labor Board. One cannot imagine the Presidents writing gentle and friendly note to an employer who had defied order of the Board The President and his advisers find that the law can do nothing to MT Petrillo because his defiance does not .'unduly impede the effort' One has only to contrast this with the action of the Administration in the Montgomery Ward case, where noncompliance with a War Labor Board order deemed perious to the war effort that Federal troops were instantly ordered in to seize the plant and remove the head of it bodily. a+
 What began as an "order" to MT Petrillo to desist has ended merely personal request" to which MT. Petrio is asked to yield a special favor to the President and to the American public
 Nothing is said in the Presidents letter of how it became perfectly legal for MT Petrlo to exercise the irresponsible private dctatorial powers that he does Nothing is said of how it became perfectly legal for this private citizen to tell the American people what music it can and cannot hear To find out how this situation came about, one has merely to review the labor laws which the Congress has put upon the books and the laws and amendments that the Ad- ministration has opposed, together with the inter- pretaton of the existing laws by the Supreme Court The plain truth is that the powers exercised by Mir Petrillo are powers conferred upon him by acts of Congress as interpreted by the Supreme Court Con- BreSS mas made It llegal employers tO membership in labor union but has refused to make it illegal for unions to workers into mem bership Congress, according to the Supreme Court, has granted sweeping immunities to labor unions under the antitrust acts, the anticonspiracy acts and even the anti-racketeering acts. These immu- mites simply goahead signals to unions to commit acts that would be illegal if committed by anyone else
 Under the powers conferred upon him by Con- gress Mir Petrillo force practically every musician in the country into his union. He has the power to boycott any musician the employer of any musician who refuses to join Under these powers he can levy private tax on the records of recording companies Ca tax which must ultimately be paid by the con- stunning pubic) that he can force the employment of unneeded men during wartime manpower shortage and set up his own private system of employment relief If the Administration is now, it pro fesses powerless to take any legal action against MT Petrilo and is reduced to asking him to desist as special favor, it is because, through its own labor legislation, it planned it that way.

GOOD NEIGHBORS PROVIDE COFFEE

The backstage story in regard to the near threat of coffee rationing is that the Good Neighbor policy paid dividends last month. Bra zilian friendship enabled us to avert either coffee rationing or a coffee rise in price. The American housewife will be in $13,000, 900 between now and Christmas be- cause of the Good Neighbor policy.
 U. $. retail coffee prices here have been frozen since December, 1941, but the cost of producing coffee in Brazil, Colombia, Salva- dor and Venezuela has not. Crow CTS there have been clamoring for higher prices.
 The governments of these four countries have been under constant pressure from powerful coffee in- terests to get better prices in the United States. In general, the growers of Venezuela, Colombia and Salvador have had partial support from their governments, but the Brazilian government has refused to press for higher prices.
 As result, growers have been tapering off in their acceptance of orders from the U. s. A. Gambling on an early end of the war, they  decided to build up stocks for im- mediate sale to England, Sweden, France and Spain. Coffee will keep in the bean for as long as five to ten years)
 This refusal of growers to accept new orders led the War Food Ad-

immediate rationing. He knew that the threat of renewed rationing would cause plenty of worry among the coffee growers
 So OPA sent instructions to its field offices specifying the stamp in book 4 that should be used, and rationing was due to start last Monday Three days before it was to get under way, the White House got in touch with President Vargas of Brazil.
 Vargas, who has been under ex- treme pressure from the Brazilian growers, said he could not promise to keep them in line any longer But he did give assurances that Brazil would live up to it's guaran- tee of 100000 bags month for this year and that he would try to persuade growers to accept ad- ditional orders for next year. On his assurance, the rationing order was rescinded. eS
 NOTE-This situation, however cannot last forever. Either the price of coffee must go up or coffee must be rationed sometime this winter. '

Raymond B. Fosdck President of the Rockefeller Foundation made an unanswerable point against one species of isolationsn in his address in New York recently at the conference of the American Public Health Association MT. Fosdick said could no longer be indifferent to health conditions in China where there is hospital for each 100000 persons where there is hospital for each 100000 persons, this country have hospital for each 22500 persons and physician for each 750. In China and India, and in several other regions disease can breed and kill it cannot here. Under modern conditions as MT Fosdick said, there arises "the problem of trying to maintain healthy life for ourselves and our children side by side with disease rampant it is in China" Despite every possible precaution, our fighting forces in the Orient cannot be kept free of oriental sicknesses With greatly increased speed and volume of travel the difficulty of keeping these scknesses out of the occidental world keeping them down. will increase. world health organization must inevitably be attached to any world peace organization.
 War creates conditions in which disease flourishes It mpoverishes vast populations, destroys sanitary systems and controls degrades human life wherever it passes. In sense, itself is disease and its effects resemble those of group of epdemics turned

1000, ,oeo BAGS A MONTH

When brilliant Brazilian Minister of Finance, Souza Costa, was in Washington last July, he guaran- teed us a minimum of 100000 bags of Brazilian coffee for each of the four months from September through December. Costa promised extra large shipments from Brazil, risking the extreme anger of Bra zilian growers in the interest of U. s. friendship.
 Meanwhile, the Administration found itself unable to buy coffee for delivery even next year. The Brazilian guarantee is only for the remainder of this year, and the American people drink more than 100000 bags month.
 It was at this point that Marvin Jones and Chester Bowles went to Assistant President Jimmy Byrnes with their problem. Byrnes advised

During business hours today a fortunate sign rules. Later labor comes under a forbidding influence
 HEART AND HOME: Women of all ages are warned against laxity in manners and morals. Liberation from old conventions must be ac- Icepted wisely, the seers declare Returning servicemen will resent lack of old-fashioned restraints.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Optimism that relies on final victory at an earlier date than has been general ly predicted will affect the stock market this week and in future months. Temptation to speculate will be among persons who have ready money. s aie'
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Survival of prejudice regarding women's right to equal opportunities in all lines of work or public service will be evident at this time There is a sign presaging severe criticism of women in certain branches of the armed forces.
 INTERNATIONAL FAIRS: General MacArthur's return to the Philippines will accelerate in an amazing degree the complete de- feat of Japan. The emperor con- tinues to be under the most evil portents. Tragic end of his rule is indicated.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of ex- traordinary activity. The wise will avoid overwork.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be quick tempered and intensely emotional, adventurous and ambitious. Keen observation will be a valuable trait of many who will. seek journalistic work.

SUNDAY, OCTOBER 22
 Benefic aspects rule today. The planetary influences benefit the clergy and expand their scope of service.
 HEART AND HOME: Women are under most fortunate sway which presages happy reunion of friends and relatives. New romances will blossom and be fortunate. Letters written under this configuration will be especially welcome to men in the armed forces.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: The com ing week should be exceedingly &C., tive in the commercial world, where merchants and manufacturers will be urged to speed exports for civilians in European cities. The stock market is likely to show un- usual fluctuations.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: The status of the less powerful members of the United Nations will be of para mount concern as postwar plans are 1 formulated Demands for seats at 1 the peace table will require careful consideration, for the stars favor the weak as the new world condi- tions are established.
 INTERNATIONAL A AIR s: AS the full power of the United Nations is finally concentrated on our enemies, the magnitude of the resources of men and material will spread panic among the Japanese people The emperor comes under evil portents that may foreshadow violent death.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of ad- vancement in scientific pursuits, public service and financial matters. Love affairs will be lucky.
