Market Dull,
Prices Steady

NEW YORK. July 7 tINS1-
The stock market turned quiet
today. Price changes were con-
fined 10 but a handful of stocks
as overall volume fell 10 around
the million-share rate, lowest OF
this week.
A few special issues attracted
strength. Phillips Petroleum was
up better than 2 points while
other oils also were higher. q
Pepsi-Cola was another strong
spot, rising nearly 2 points. Other
soft drink shares improved lesser
amounts on the seasonal boost in
their business.
Important industrial shares
Jagged. Steels were easier except
for late upturn in u. S. Steel.
Utilities were firm.
Curb prices were mixed and
interest in bonds was centered
mainly in the investment division.

What New
In Business
Firms Looking Now
for Jobs for Disabled
BY WARD SCHULTZ

More and more firms are
starting now to determine what
jobs partially disabled war vets
will be able to handle when they
return.
The latest company 20 launch
such a project is the Midland
Steel Products Co.. which is
surveying both its Detroit and
Cleveland plants.
President f. ]. Kulas points
out that with 693 men in the
armed forces and 90 already re-
turned to work, the company
realizes that a certain percent
age will be unable to return 10
their old occupations and some
provision must be made for
them.
I'VE have found" he said,
that q fair percentage of the
Ill Job ciassifications In this
plant can be handled by men
who suffered battle injuries.
But we are trying to find spots
for the unfortunate fellow who
was blinded or lost leg or an
arm. He, too, Is entitled to his
Job"
All stable employers of labor
should have similar surveys
under way and should be train
ing their personnel departments

obvious handicapS - wounded

least in part. the feeling OF en-
barrassment and sometimes bit
terness which often forms a wall
between the returning soldier
and an able-bodled personnel
man.

(And after the fund is set up,

Apparently the idea that each

conference as part of the idea
that trade among the nations re-
quires stable currencies.
Another peculiar angle in the
thought of the currency interna-

poverty is more contagious than
prosperity. Morgenthau says that
prosperity is indivisible, and not
localized. That in order TO make

Japanese island Notifications re-
ceived their first important airing.
When men and nations are disposed
to be wishful and to have peace at
any cost, it is one thing to talk
about menacing. developments, and
1t is another thing to be convincing
enough about them to stimulate
effective preventive action.
Nevertheless, If we are ever to
have an enduring peace, we must
learn from our hindsight and sec
ond thoughts and apply the lesson to
the future. AS, things were in 1929
and later, perhaps no diplomacy
no matter how open-could have
prevented what has since happened,
but certainly the diplomacy could
have been better than it was. and
the different national leaderships
could have been firmer and more
far-seeing. This much the Second
World War is teaching all of us, and
out of the experience, mankind
should draw enough understanding
to order things much more wisely in
the peace to come. The alternative
is war and more war.

From the London News Of the world

From the LOndon NEWS OF Ene Worlo.
Completely adrift from the common
decencies, deaf to entreaty, adamant
even to the petition Of neutral voices,
the Japanese give neither sign of regret
nor promise of reform. Thus for the
families and friends of the men in cap
tivity, the wearying anxiety and uncer-
tainty continue. They may, however,
find some small degree of comfort in this
reflection: That when the roll of the
war drums begins to echo in Tokyo,
then even the fanatically defiant Jap
anese will see the red light and relent.
1t has always been that way in war. An
enemy in the false security of temporary
success has not been particularly con-
cerned with the well-being Of It's pris-
oners, but with the tide turning from
victory to impending defeat, invariably
there has been a noticeable revision of
policy. Mr.. Eden probably had this in
mind when,H in warning the Japanese
government that the terrible record of
atrocities would not be forgotten, he
added the hope that where all other
means had failed repentance might yet
be induced through fear. Early or late,
retribution is certain. Has not Nh.

Princess of Ace

Eighteen years ago today The Star
printed dispatch from the Associ-
ated Press bureau in London to the
effect that: The Duke and Duchess
of York are the proud parents of a
girl baby" who made her advent
into the world at 2:40 o'clock this
morning" at the town house of her
maternal grandfather, the Earl of
Strathmore. The report went on to
say: Although it is somewhat
remote contingency, there is a pos
sibility that today's baby one day
may sit on the throne as a British
sovereign" Her arrival, it was
explained, had been acknowledged
by telegram from her uncle, the
Prince of Wales, who, the AP story
mentioned, calls the duchess Queen
Elizabeth"
Now the infant born April 81, 1926,
comes of age as heir presumptive to
the crown. Her name, according to
the baptismal record, is Elizabeth
Alexandra Mary Windsor, but she
always has been known by the desig-
nation which she shares with
Shakespeare's lady majesty" 1t has
been her good fortune to have had
the care and guidance of her grand
mother, the beloved Queen Mary,
widow of George v. Her schooling
has included "the three RS" history,
etiquette and court conventions"
She speaks French, German and
Spanish. From time to time she
has appeared in amateur dramatic
productions. She dances well, sWims.
rides, collects stamps and plays
billiards. The war has brought her
full portion of hardship and sor.
row, but her photographs invariably
show her smiling.
What the future may hold for
Princess Elizabeth is a matter of
speculation. If her destiny should
be to succeed her father, there Is
reason to believe that she would
not fail her duty. On the other
hand, If Britain by any chance
should become republic, she would
be content with private citizenship.

A Constructive Step

The Civil Service Commission is
taking a constructive step in requir-
ing that future applicants for Gov
ernment positions undergo x-ray
chest examinations. In the past
year or so the United States Public
Health Service, with the help OF
War Department clinic at the Pen
tagon Building, has given examina-
tions to over 100000 employees, while
the District Health Departments
Bureau for tuberculosis has ex-
amined over 10000 food handlers
and public school personnel in addi-
ton to all men called by selective
service. In time, such examinations
will be routine and will provide one
of the most effective weapons in the
fight to control the spread of
tuberculosis.
The Civil Service Commissions
order may have stemmed directly
from recommendation made over
a year ago by DR.. A. Barklie Coulter,
director of the Bureau of Tuber-
culosis, in testimony before a con-
gressional committee. Certainly it
is in line with the splendid efforts of
the District Health Department to
expand x-ray examinations, and
while the growth of this practice
has placed a great burden on the
limited facilities Of the Districts
Bureau of tuberculosis, it is one
cheerfully undertaken for the sake
of the manifest benefits to result,
If the Civil Service Commission
has not done so already, it is assumed
that it will make arrangements with
health or other State agencies to
have X-ray examinations given by
some official agency before a
prospective Government employe
reaches Washington. Facilities for
such examinations are becoming so
general, and the cost is so small, that
they should be readily available to
all candidates wherever they apply
for Government work. E

On the Record
By Dorothy Thompson

The British government, after con-
sultation with American and Russian
representatives, has taken q drastic step
to prevent leakages of information from
the British Isles. AS far as know, the
step is unprecedented. The essential
diplomatic privileges and immunities of
communication between diplomats and
their governments or peoples have been
abrogated. This holds for represent
atives of neutral governments, and of
all Allied governments with the excep-
tion Of the Big Three
The customary privileges have been:
to send kilograms in code; to transmit
letters through sealed pouches and to
maintain diplomatic couriers. In cases
OF emergency high officials sometimes
took the place of couriers. A neutral
ambassador might, himself, 60 home
to report.
All this. is now forbidden. The only
privilege that has been granted in re-
spect of communication is that of trans
mitting messages through the British
Foreign Once and the British emhas-
sizes in neutral countries, which means
that the British government-in col
laboration with the American and Rus
sian-is to become, for an unstated
length of time, the political trustee OF
all governments represented on the
British Isles. 3
There are people in this country who
are laying bets that there will be no
invasion Of the continent this spring.
But the moment when the Germans
heard of this new measure they placed
their own bets on the other side. For
unless such a step were very soon fol-
lowed by military events, the political
repercussions would be very bad.
1t seems obvious that information
regarding planned landings would be
of prime interest to the governments
Of the countries Immediately affected.
Tt also is obvious that the withdrawal
OF privileges from any specific countries
would be revealing of plans and discrim-
inatory. No self-respecting government
could accept special measures in regard
to itself.
SO what is implicit In the action is,
first, that military events are going to
occur and very soon, and, second, that
the three Allied governments who will
do the lighting are taking no chances.

More Suppression Of News

1t would be much easier to accept
the War Department explanation
of why news of another accident
the destruction by Allied fire of ten
American transport planes over
Catania last July-had been held up
so long had the War Department
itself released the information.
1t released the information, with
another hazy explanation of the de-
lay, but only after it leaked out
through publication by columnist.
The Star, and perhaps other news
papers, were in possession of this
information some time ago, with
holding publication at the War De-
partment's insistence that it's reve-
lation would be dangerous at the
time.
Secretary Stimson explains that
the delay in releasing news of such
accidents is understandable when
you consider the unpredictable rea-
sons which led up to them" The
accident itself may be understand
able, but the Army's reluctance,
months afterward, to release the
news is merely additional confrma-
ton of the fact, and it seems to be
a fact that neither Secretary Slim
son nor General Surles has been able
to convince others In the War De-
partment that policy of candid
honesty in public relations pays in
the end. This latest incident may
help them.
