have to move is only to point out the obvious Yet we wonder if landlords who callousy avail themselves of the mo children" policy stop to consider fully the frantic despair of young mother with children left alone to find home tend to her family and perhaps work to help support it-when every where she turns she hears that refrain: No children.
 It takes children to keep up nation, to fight wars even to construct the houses that landlords rent And in the modern world where the tendency not to have children because they're too much trouble" already is so grievousy marked, this war time closing of housing door to parents of children is certain to leave a serious social imprint on the nation for years to come.
 AS footnote, we might add, there need be no financial loss to landlord who accepts families with children if a bond for any possible damage or de- terioraton is posted That might be handship for some families, but less of a hardship than finding nowhere to go.
 Perhaps our equal rights" Legislature can find some way to eliminate this discrimination, also

NO CHILDREN

The widespread development of a mo children" policy among landlords in the renting of houses and apartments is both social and moral problem.
 We grant the considerations which enter into the average landlords way of thinking on the sub ject The demand for apartments and homes is so great, thanks to conditions, that he can pick and choose renters And since adults usuallythough by no means always-are easier on rented property than families with children, great many landlords have exercised their privilege of renting only to family groups without children.
 This creates serious social problem because in wartime shifting about of families nnumerable fam lilies with children find themselves up against vert able blank wall in their search for accommodations. And to make matters it hits hardest the fam lilies of servicemen. The landlords object chiefly to young children, and many of their fathers in the service.
 To say that they are Ion the spot when they

U. s.-FRENCH FILM FIGHT

The usually meek State Depart ment actually got tough last month when members of the French Cabinet complained that the quality of U. s. films being shown in France was inferior.
 Real fact is that U. S. films go- ing into France are selected by the Office of War Information. are the cream of the Hollywood pro- duction.
 Francis DeWolf, head of the State Department Telecommunica- tions Section-which includes mo- tion pictures-was not impressed by the French complaint. He sent back word that complaints about the quality of U. s. films might be better received if the French were willing to grant visas to rep resentatives of U. s. film industry so they might get in and study reaction of the French to the pie lures and carry on normal business relations.
 Although Gen. Eisenhower has not stood in the way of movie people who wished to go into France for their companies, the French Government has not been

To Curb Make-WOrk

(New York TimeS)
 Representative Monroney of Oklahoma has had the courage and sightedness to introduce bill but to curb of the antsocial practices in which the latter has been one of the chief offenders MT Monroney's bill would first of all make it illegal for any union try force employer to hire its own members for task when another union had already been designated by the National Labor Relations Board as the exclusive bargaining agent for that task This would curb the present effort of Mir Petrilo to take over the platter turner's" the radio. Its general effect would be to uphold the authority of the NLRB.
 More important than this, MT. Monroneys bill would make it illegal for any union to force an employer to hire or to pay wages to any person when such person is in fact in excess of the number of persons reasonably required to perform the work in which the employer is engaged This would not only end the forced hiring of standby" musicians but great many make work practices outside of the musical field The bill would also prohibit unreason- able restrictions the of material machines or equipment This provision is amply safeguarded from the standpoint of labor permit restrictions related to health safety working conditions It even per- mits the retardaton of technoogical advance to provide for "an orderly change in, the methods Of production" Finally the bills outlaws combinations of unions and employers to monopoize any part of trade.
 Here at last is measure that would strike at the evil of make work practices practices which are still tolerated in spite of national labor shortage, and at time when every misuse or waste of labor postpones the day of victory in

surance that it will, and OPA has indicated that this price may be cut.
 Last weeks m e ing had been underway for about 15 minutes when Franklin Gindick of the OPA Food Price Division, who was serv- ing as chairman suddenly an- nounced, We have got to stop this meeting minute while we ask the Congressman to leave
 When the Congressmen showed no disposition to leave. Straw berry Champion" Gindick asked them to step into the hall, where he told them "The Law" prohibits their attendance at industry advis- ory committee meetings.
 To this, Louisiana Jimmy Nor rison replied, I'm a lawyer and a Congressman, but I've never heard of that law. Will you show 1t to me?"
 Gindick said he was referring to a ruling by the Attorney General. but Morrison insisted upon seeing the ruling or hearing it from the Attorney General or one of his staff. Finally, Gindick gave up and called Mrs. Ethel Gilbert, head Of the OPA Office of Industry Ad- visory Committees, after the Con- gressmen refused to go to Mrs. Gilbert's office.
 You gentlemen will have to leave" Mrs. Gilbert told them. The Attorney General does not want Congressmen at industry advisory meetings"
 Again Morrison insisted upon proof that the Attorney General had made such a ruling; to which Mrs. Gilbert replied, You are talk ing advantage of a lady, MT. Mor- rison"
 Morrison, however, stood his ground until Mrs. Gilbert explained, This is a rule I made. I control policy for these meetings, and will not let Senators and Congressmen attend
 By what authority?' asked the Congressman from Louisiana. "The OPA Appropriation Bill is due to come before the House within a few weeks" Mrs. Gilbert replied "The authority you CongressnIen gave me-believe me, use it.
 John Jennings, Tennessee Repub- lican, finally gave up in disgust, but Morrison and Earthman re- turned to the conference. They were followed by Mrs. Gilbert, who announced that so long as the Congressman insisted upon staying there would be no official action at the meeting, even though the grow CTS had travelled hundreds of miles at their own expense. Finally, the two Congressman left

The State Department, already under pressure from movie people here to protest the de Gaulle plan to issue a government newsreel and freeze out American reels, has been trying to get movie people into France so that they can re-estab- fish themselves. But so far all the French will take from Holly wood is film.

SUNDAY, MAhCh II, Aofo
 Benefic aspects rule today which should be most fortunate for lead CTS in church and state.
 Heart And Home
 Women today are under stimulat- ing and inspiring planetary influ- ences which should enable them to accept bereavements courageously Children will benefit grately this year when their value to the nation will be understood.
 Business Affairs Economic issues will greatly af- fleet American diplomacy this year when world commerce will be sought by all members of the United Nations. British foresight will be evident as new markets are envisioned.
 National Issues
 Pensions of many sorts will be advocated by the public as Con- gress considers financial problems. Rising costs of war will cause anxiety and extra taxes will be dis cussed. The seers remind the na- tion that it has been wonderfully protected from attack by it's ene- mics and should express gratitude in dollars.
 International Affairs Promise of great achievements this spring is seen in the stars. While rapid progress is retarded along certain fronts, the march to final victory will be steady. Civili- ans again are warned against over optimism.
 1 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year in which Idisappointments will prove blessings in disguise. Happy endings to many anxieties are predicted. | Children born on this day prob-' ably will be affectionate and am- bilious They will gain much through older persons.

 neart Ard Home
 Families are to profit from war time lessons of economy, astrologers declare. The stars incline women toward order and system as well as thrift. Scientific methods applied to domestic tasks will assure smooth running of households.
 Business Affairs
 Wage earners who save their money are to have opportunities to establish novel post war business enterprises, it is forecast. New in- ventions will open broad fields of activity in which only small capital will be needed.
 National Issues Astrology points the way to en- during peace through individual effort. Each persons life is part of the mosaic which is a nation and as it is ordered the whole people gains or loses.
 .S International Affairs
 War correspondents now come under a configuration which seems to increase their responsibility Conjecture should be eliminated from all battlefront reports as- trologers declare. Modern miracles are presaged.
 Persons whose birthdate. it is have the augury of year of tests in patience and courage. Special care to avoid accidents is enjoined
 Children born on this day prob- ably will be easily affected by en- vironment. They may have cre- ative talents, which should be wise- ly developed.
