The War Years Have Ended

The worst conflict in the worlds history is formally ended General Douglas MacArthur and our gallant Amer ican troops occupy the enemy Jap homeland The price has been bloody, costly and harsh.
 What say in retrospect-at this time?: Very little which will be apt and conforming to the enormty o the events Yet something should be sad in grateful tones the words should be uttered and printed to record the heartfelt gratitude of a nation.
 The fighting has been ended Planes still in watch fl vgilence of tricky enemy but their sounds not Wake Guns remain pointed and men are alerted but the feardden anxiety is abaed All the aspects of war remain the scene but there great calm upon the world The calm of peace The calm of exhausted warriors done with battle.
 All other mortal things, at this tme in retrospect are without any paraeed significance to todays major event The world will again settle to peace and these war years will become monumental
 The era of blood and tears has been ended We enter the of fruitful o Its soil has been enriched by the sacrifice of fighting and their loved ones Let us till well!

Capital BarOmeterS
By Peter Edson

Texas newspapermen have a different name for it They flood every city editors desk each morning from every branch of the government pressure group down to the League of Left-Handed Dandruff Scratchers. If ever line from of these handouts gets into print its author feels grateful.
 But they clue to what's coming up that can't be ignored. Weeks and months before im- poTtant issue flares up the various sides will begin bombarding news offices with slightly santed back ground material on the question. Not so much de- signed to get into print, they are to convince the writer by process of ceaseless pounding that any action other than what they propose would throw the nation into complete chaos.
 Some of the material is serious and intelligent, representing the wishes and aims of millions of per- millions of dollars Much is plain 'crackpot stuff. Some is borderline The governments hand- outs be anything.
 Here are examples from one mornings haul of the better material showing where their sponsors interests lie regarding the postwar world.
 The U. s. Chamber of Commerce weekly report called Business Action" headlines important story, Tax Reductions After Jan. Virtually As sured."
 The CIO headlines its weekly publication. "Ses 10 Million Out of Work by 1946."
 duPont release says, 'Nylon has eStab. lished itself in an outstanding way in the field oi textiles and synthetic bristles"
 From the Veterans of Foreign Wars comes the statement "The VFW today challenged the growing tendency of -nurtured government agencies to perpetuate their activities and jobs in the postwar era by cutting themselves piece of veteran pie"
 A news letter from the Allied Liquor Industries, Inc tops its lead story with Peace to Further Ease Beverage Spirits Situation"
 The Automobile Association announces: "Wel- coming the return of the full fuel tank after four years of gas shortage, AAA warned motorists that neither their cars nor the rubber them can stand high speeds

The Women, 192O-1945

In the year 1848 in Seneca Falls N Y the women held the first equal rights meeting But not too much was done about these rights in big way until the year 1913 when the National Womans Party had it's beginning.
 From 1848 to 1913 there equal suffrage Spurts. By 1913 the had demonstrated that they meant business and April their party through Susan B.. Anthony had introduced amendment her formal intro right citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied abridged by the United States by any State on account of sex"
 The amendment reported favorably upon the fol- lowing June and six years of spectacular and coorful events that included White House picketng, paradeS, pageants imprSonmentS cimaxed with the passing of the 18th amendment in 1919 and ratified in 1920.
 Those drastic and active years for the National WomanS Party In politics and government women defn- tey had entered the pcture and to all ntent and pur poses they intend to remain in the picture.

OR MAYBE WASH ELEPHANTS
! (New York Sln)

=.
 At hearings before g. War Labor Board panel on a contract between the Western Union Telegraph Com- pany and its employees, a spokes- man for the latter objected to 8 resumption of the peacetime serv- ices of delivering singing telegrams and walking dogs. He described these as "a lot of nonsense,' in- ferring that they are beneath the dignity of telegraph messengers. While not saying much about dog walking, the representative of man. agement said that singing telegrams were an important source of rev- enue and that the company had to be free, when business is bad, to do anything proper to increase its revenues.
 Here is a point which labor too frequently overlooks. It wants its wages maintained with a maximum degree of regularity. and in maxi- mum amount, but workers are often resentful if called upon to do some thing out of the ordinary in order to bring in the money from which those wages are derived. It may be, as the union spokesman argues. that the exercising of dogs is a servi~- rot ordinarily associated with andling of telegrams. But certs there is nothing degrad- ing aeout it. Many persons of wealth and social prominence walk their dogs rain or shine If there are others who want to pay to have Fido exercised that should be their privilege.
 Providing company undertaking to perform any personal service pays proper wages and in general treats its workers fairly and with out indignity, labor's job is merely to see that whatever the task 1t shall be surrounded with proper safeguards for the worker.

With group riding in effect, they hear the inside debates on whats coming off during the day when they drive their fares to work and the trip home how it came off They have more inside information than any touts at race track.
 More than one congressman has been known to send his secretary out taxi riding to find out what's really going on or what the current thought is on some subject
 Since the peace announcement the drivers have kept an especially alert ear to the ground. From their trips back and forth to Union Station they port succinctly:
 'The business men are leaving and the politicians are arriving"
 Most group gossip" concerns: N Who is being fired first, and will their apart ment be available? Will Washington win the pennant this year? The rumor that Ickes is going to stay at Interior for some time What they're going to do with the Pentagon building. What Congress will do.

name crowded into the passenger list I'd just as forget those five days although I'm not certain but that in six months I'll consider them one of the most remarkable experiences of my entire life, and something wouldn't have missed for large amount of money.
 There were almost l5OO0 people on that mighty ship. That's more than the entire population of many well known New England towns. It the first time the Mary had carried what amounted to full dtvi- sion She had the entire s0th Division aboard. with the exception of one regiment which had gone on ahead
 But there were enough casual attachments fitted in to make up for the missing numbers Not even in streets have ever people crowded, and never anywhere have ever seen anything handled with such unbelievable efficiency. There weren't enough beds for that many soldiers although every availa- ble space in the ship was fitted with narrow three decker hunks. no wider than litters
 That great ship is now barrack transportation. net There were no hooks-no possible way to hang Salon. but which is now the Officers Lounge there is not even a chair where man can sit down There deck chairs, deck sports. There is absolute ly nothing but transportation.
 They could feed that mob but two meals day. You could select your hours took 10 in the morn ing and at night. You could make 1t in the morn- ing and 4 in the afternoon, and 5, and and so on The food was great and they gave you all you could eat when your turn came. but that was it. They couldn't do any better.
 We had one bathroom for 2l men. but there was no fresh water. You could bathe tn hot salt water but for shaving you took bucket to Water Post and got your own. If you wanted to go somewhere even out on deck for air. you moved In Q line They marched and countermarched all day and all night

WHOLESALE FLY SWAPPING
lNew York sunl

(NeW York Sun)
 In four American cities what is known in current jargon as the Fly Abatement Unit of the Army Neurotropic Virus Commission is testing the effectiveness of DOT, powerful insecticide developed dur ing the war. These experiments seek to ascertain whether it is pos s:ble to eliminate flies which are believed to spread the virus of in- fantile paralysis. In Rockford, H. linoiS, sections of the city were sprayed by a low-flying bomber In other communities, Paterson, N. J., New Haven. Conn, and Savannah, Ga, tank trucks and hand Syray- CTS were employed. In each place only selected areas were treated so that necessary controls for scien- tific conclusions might remain. If the disease should abate maetrially in sprayed sections as compared with adjoining areas in which the flies have not been molested. there would be good reason to beleive that DOT can help prevent spread of the disease.
 It is foolish to expect miracles so says Dr. John R. Paul, professor Of preventive medicine at the Yale University School of Medicine, who is director of the Fly Abatement Unit. He adds that it has not yet been fully demonstrated that the application of DOT by the methods now eronloved will kill A large num- Der of the flies-it did not work too well on New Jerseys mosquitoes. It will be much longer before it will be safe to draw conclusions regard ing infantile paralysis and pr. Paul adds the suggestion that premature hopes be avoided. The whole ex- pertinent. however, draws fresh at tertion to the menace of the fly. Bred in filth and natural seven ger. it can bring into the home germs of all kinds. It should ne increasingly swatted or sprayed.

THE INHIBITED MUSE

There was certain verve or fire No thought of readers could pollute When classic poets whacked a Tyre Or lute.
 For they had sponsors-iuol;v guys! Who thought their every verse sub-
 lime
 And brooked no check on enterprise In rhyme.
 Horatius had Maecanas, who Got up the weekly dough fc1 song, And nothing that the bard could do Was wrong.
 He tipped the red F'alernian when His thirst compelled him so to do, For Horace, eight or nine or ten Were few.
 Most bo.sterously he could win The affiliated ear of Rome, Nor think: "Desist! It's going in The home" Myself, I like the moral rein That bids the ribald Muse to stop But were Horatius back again, I'd swap.
 It's good wind that blows mo- body i'll. Now that the pajama peo- pie have been given the signal to 90 ahead with production, we sup pose they'll also start inserting those elastic gadgets on the sides of the pants again, to the furious disgruntlement of us pleasingly plump pillow-pounders.
 The beneficiaries of lend-lease are beginning to realize that there is another side to the program one that isn't quite so cheering when 1t comes to getting it up for what they borrowed or rented.
 one lesson the Japs have learned in the war is little exercise in geometry: A co-prosperity sphere is flat at the end.
 Nelson Rockefeller says that Arr gentina tricked the Allies into granting her membership in the United Nations. Apparently that wasn't business declaration of war.
 The WIPE has ruled that new cars may not be equipped with spare tires. But keep your chin up; scientists who could perfect the atomic bomb certainly should be able to figure out some method of retreading a retread.
 There are some advocates of vast subterranean installations to pro- tect civilians from the atomic bomb during the next war They want people to go under ground without being lowered into it.
