rassed individuals finding difficulty in supplying satisfactory Identification when endeavoring to cash checks.
 One hopeful sign is greater use of Traveletters-letters of credit assuring easy cashing of cheeks. While such let terS have long been popular with persons travelling abroad, the modern version provides weekly limitation on amounts, quick cancellation and requires no heavy outlay of cash such as the case with travellers checks. Virtually all hotels have pior eered with this form of credit letter and are thoroughly familiar with it's method of operation Business firms are more and more using Traveletters as a protection for both themselves and persons caShing checks; easing the work of auditing departments; avoiding de- lays due to non-delivery of expense checks to representatives and embarraSS- ment to those without proper identifica- tion. Volume has brought down the cost of Traveletters.
 One of the pioneers in the field of credit letters was the late Edgar A. Walz. More than fifty years ago, when the number of checks in use was small as compared to the billions now issued an nually, he saw an answer to business customer relations in Traveletters. Wider acceptance of this means of using checks, with adequate safeguards for those ac- cepting checks and no embarrassment to those rendering checks, promises to be one of the financial advances of the post war period Certainly they would help to solve the country's serious rubber check" problem
The Waterbury Democrat., 1945-07-23
Criticism Essential

Retail business men of the nation have been leaders in insisting that practical controls be enforced to prevent the dizzy spiraling of prices. Some of the diff culties we are now experiencing result from the refusal of those charged with rationing and price control to give heed to practical suggestions that have been offered This is excusable in large degree because it is impossible to please everybody, and furthermore, because when a country changes from free eco- nomy to controlled economy whether it be for war emergency or other req son, harsh conditions will result
 When people seek legislated security from some real or imagined danger, such as imitation for example, they give up much freedom of action in return. There fore, it is unfair to complain of the con- trol'' system under which we now live until we are ready to take our chances under a free economy. However, this does not mean that there should be no criticism or effort to improve operating methods of our control system. If rules and regulations governing prices and production are definitely destructive of increased output, correction should be lllduG. O111CSS I11AS 1o 1OAAC, CAAC pNA POoS of rationing and price control will be defeated. The duty of OPA is to CO., operate with producers and retailers be- cause it is on them that the people de- pend for all the necessities of life and not on the regulators who, in themselves, are powerless to clothe or feed single soul.
 AS controls are relaxed, both produc- CTS and retailers will face tremendous obligation of voluntarily passing prices on reasonable profits. From this angle, or ganized retailers and mass producers of merchandise will be the nations greatest price control assets, for the simple req son that their business lives depend on volume turnover, and that cannot be secured except on minimum profit per unit sale. Therefore, business must ac- cept the responsibility of policing it's own price policy.

Ending the Rubber Check" Era

The year 1945-the one-hundredth an- niversary of sound banking practices finds banks steadily expanding their services and checking accounts. It is accompanied by a tremendous increase iii the volume of payments by check on the part of firms and individuals. Ap- proximately ninety per cent of all pay ments for goods and services are today made by check. However, the "protec- ton" factor for those honoring cheeks continues to be a financial hazard It is estimated the losses from worthless cheeks run as high as $300000, 900 year.
 The problem facing those accepting cheeks and persons trying to get checks cashed steadily becomes more acute. with sales and distribution counted upon for the heaviest postwar employment, millions of new faces will be in the field of husiness travel. More millions will be attending conventions and meetings and stiff more millions will travel for recrea- ton. Thus the number O; checks drawn or banks at time when around $150,- coo .OOO, ,OOO is in circulation will be enor- nous. The situation has become mat fer of serious concern, not only to banks and credit managers, but also to firms Issuing expense cheeks and to en1bar-

Using Up Time

The anti poll-tax bill had been debated in the House of Representatives and passed. The two previous anti poll-tax bills were defeated in the Senate by the so-called Dixie filibuster, and the chances are that the same fate is scheduled for the pending legislation. Everybody knows that the only object of several Southern States in imposing small poll-tax is just another way of stopping Negroes from participating in their elections.
 Nevertheless, under the American sys- tenn of government the States have authority over the poll-tax question. In former times the poll-tax was require ment in Northern as well as Southern States Gradually, it was dropped as a non-essential requirement..
 As matter of fact, it seemed ridicu- 1ous that the Congress would waste so much time discussing this State issue, and trying to impose its views upon the South when there are so many emer- gencies that should take precedence over matter that is built up largely on sen- timent, plus advantages for political bosses.

Views Of The Press
AMERICAS POLISH POLICY
(New York Times)


 Friends of the Polish nation can reasonably be encouraged by the Vandenberg- Grew exchange of let ters, made public yesterday. The Acting Secretary of State did not say that there would be interna- sional sunpervis;on of the free and unfettered elections" promised at the Crimea Conference. He did say that the new American Ambassador to Poland, Arthur Bliss Lane, would report on the advisability of such supervision and that if 1t takes place "the United States Govern ment will, of course, insist upon its right to participate on an equal oasis with the other Powers The implication would seem to be that we do not expect Russia to object. She should not. Her relations with the new Poland will be healthier If they result from the freely expressed Will of the Polish people. The pres ent Polish Government is a com promise, a welcome one because 1t ended an impossible situation, but not a permanent one. An cleo ton in which all possibility of H. licit pressure for or against any party is ruled out is necessary be- fore a Government can speak be- yond doubt for the majority of the Polish people.
 Acting Secretary Grew also gave the Michigan Senator welcome as- surances that the United States gov ernment expected American cor respondents to be permitted to en- ter Poland" and that it had been "pressing the Soviet authorities for l some time for authorization TOT American correspondents to enter eastern and southeastern Europe. Free and secret elections, open and uncensored reporting would do g great deal to ease American anxiety about Poland and other areas which have so long been shut off from the world. If she makes this pos sible Russia will strengthen the ties of friendship between herself and the United States.

Selected Poem
MIDSUMMER GARDEN

Marguerite Janvrin Adams in The Christian
 Science Monitor) This year the garden has fragrant touch of honeysuckle growing by the gate; tulips are past. yet remember much of red and golden glory, and await the zinnias, the cosmos hollyhocks, delphinium and fragile four-oclocks. Gardens are bountiful with July here, the sun ball of flame, the fountain spilling a silver shower; ground that once was sere Its annual summer plentitude fulfilling. So neither field nor wood can be breathtaking as this small city garden of our making

the Army-that's by real crack down on the men responsible. Unfortunately, however, no one above the rank of captain ever gets reprimanded for home front errors even if they're exposed by outfits like the Truman Con- m;ttee.
 Senators complain that every time they prove an officer guilty of error, the Army promotes him one or two grades within 60 days.
 Meanwhile the tremendous waste of both material and manpower continues.
