 While the league may look like pitchers circuit with Grabeck, Flood Pezzullo, Althausen and Bradley, it is far from that judging by the fine fielding which was exhibited in the openers.

 Another gem was Chris Grud- zien'S running catch of Joe Rinaldi's pop fly back of third. The Brook lyn third sacker took it after a long run diving head-first into the jump ing-pit but holding it for dear life.

DRIVE FOR JOBS FOR DISABLED WORKERS

A nationwide campaign to ob- tain jobs for disabled workers, 1n- cluding those discharged from military service, was launched this week by the U. 8. Employment Service, with the backing of Pres ident Truman. To aid the drive, the President proclaimed this week asuHPhysically Handicapped Week" !"
 During the war, the lame, the halt and the blind were hired at a record rate, asd they demonstrated they can do an efficient job, the Employment service pointed out. It called for an even greater use of them in the coming months.
 Indorsing the campaign, General Omar D. Bradley, Veterans Ad- ministration chief, pleaded for spe- cial consideration to disabled ex- service men. Give them their chance and they'll deliver the goods," he said.

Railroads face postwar compe- tition from air lines, not only in transportation of passengers, but also freight, according to a long and detailed article in the Wall Street Journal"
 The article says that up to now all airplanes have been designed to carry passengers or for military purposes. Speed was the main con- sideration, so the planes have "cyl- indrical fuselages," rounded front and rear ends, and 1t has been im- possible to load, stow and unload freight economically.

The CeSt1mOny, some or WHICH literally startled the senators, was given by Patrick w. McDonough, head of the McDonough Steel Com- pany, Oakland, Calif., during hear ings on the bill by Senator James M. Mead Oen., N. Y0 for estab- 1ishment of 65-cents-an-hour minimum wage in American indus try now, with a 75-cent floor" in two years.
 Blunt spoken, McDonough de- ecribed the 65-cent minimum as "just a pittance" and insisted 1t ought to be much higher.
 "Its really not American to
 pay as little as 65 cents an
 hOur," he declared.
 In his own plant, which has been making invasion boats dur ing the war, but in peacetime manufactures steel smokestacks, barges and other steel products, the rock-bottom wage for un- skilled labor is $1 an hour, Me- Donough revealed.
 For years he has had collective bargaining relationships with the International Brotherhood of Boil ermakers, and he gave the union much of the credit for boosting wages i'm his plant and i'm other industries.
 Employers never raise wages unless they are forced to-" Me- Donough frankly asserted. As proof he cited the experience of his in- dustry.
 When I learned the boilermak- ing business 40 years ago, wages for practical boilermakers were 25 to 30 cents an hour," he said. At present, boilermaker gets SIPS or more an hour.
 During those 40 years, not
 one of the increases in the in-
 dustry was ever granted freely.
 They were always gotten by
 the uni0n."
 The steady advance in wages has cut costs, not hiked them, Mr. Donough stressed.
 Wages Up, Costs Down
 He presented some convincing examples. On a particular type of tank, he said, wages paid work CTS were 30 cents an hour 30 years ago, but had risen to $1 an hour In 1940.
 Despite that, the labor cost on that tank has dropped from $12O to $8O," he pointed out. In the
The sub., 1945-10-25

boilermaking industry as a whole though wages now are five times the level of 40 years ago, "the cost of product is less," he said.
 Incredulous committee members asked McDonough how that was possible.
 "It's no secret" he replied. "In my plant I pay men high wages and they work harder at their job. They are more interested in their work. Consequently, they produce more. Besides, when you pay high wages, you got to use your noodle and begin figuring out ways of doing the work cheaper, by mechanizing or otherwise. Hungry Men Can't Produce
 Tt is indisputable that our coun- try which pays the highest wages in the world, has also the highest production per man. That's not a matter of some unknown eco- homie law. High wages and high production are synonymous, just as a well-kept machine is more pro- ductive than rundown one.
 People who don't have
 enough to eat or lack proper
 clothing aren't in a position to
 produce, and the only way they
 can attain 8 higher standard of
 living is to give them enough
 money so they can buyRthe ne-
 cessities of life."
 McDonough blasted the greedi- ness of some of his fellow employ. CTS and contended that enactment by law of higher minimum wage is essential to prevent cut-throat wage cutting. During the depreS- sion, he recalled, wages in his in- dustry fell as low as 20 cents an hour in some plants.
 Bosses Need Protection
 "There was no check on the avariciousness of the employer" McDonough recalled. Everyone was damaged by those conditions, most of all the employer. He, too, needs protection from such un- scrupulousness."
 McDOnOugh also drove home
 the point that high wages for
 the workers invariably mean
 high profits for the employer,
 too. Profits absolutely increase
 with a raise in wages" he said.
 AS a final clincher, he revealed that his own plant earned a mill lion dollars in profits annually dur

Now aircraft manufacturers are designing and producing planes which are nearly as square as box cars. Trucks can back up to these planes big doors to load and un~ load freight, and 1t will fit econ- omically into the square corners of the planes interior.
 The speed of these planes will be cut down to 150 to 200 miles an hour, the article says, but that will be plenty fast enough to attract . lot of freight business.
