Looking Ahead Words From TOday's Prophets
Brien McMahOn, U. S. Senator

Brien McMahOn, U. s. Senator from COnnecticut-The vast majori- ty of industrial disputes are settled through the free exercise of collec- tive bargaining. Nothing should be done which would impede this pro- cess and force disputes into bureau cratic channels for settlement. At the same time the U. S. Consolidation Service should be improved and its prestige with both management and labor greatly increased. The War Labor Board has trained many of our people in the techniques of conciliation. The salaries and pres tige of the Consolidation Service should be increased sufficiently to salvage this experience in the in- tereSts of post war harmony. I al- so feel that it would be desirable to establish in the Labor Department a National Board of Arbitration whose services would be available whenever both parties to dispute found it desirable to submit their case. I feel sure that many dis putes would be submitted to such a board voluntarily if it were estab- liShed. In addition, the Labor De- partment should be empowered to hold hearinges on disputes which vitally affect the public interest, but this should not include any eff fort to halt the dispute or inter- fere with any steps undertaken by either of the parties. The objec- tive would be solely to provide public forum.

Twenty or thirty years ago babies were restricted to Q milk. i.e. a liquid diet. until they were about q year old, sometimes longer. They became. so accus- toned to drinking all of thei1 food that it was difficult to teach them to eat foods of a more solid con- sistency.
 Milk is an important food, in fact is the mainstay of the diet for babies and growing children. Dur- ing the first few weeks milk, orange juice and some form of vitamin D (cod liver oil or vioste- rol) supply all of the needs, but other foods are necessary by the time the baby is four or five months old.
 Special baby cereals, precooked and ready to serve merely by ad- dition of milk. supply vitanlins particularly, also some additional protein and some minerals. These cereals are fortified to supplement tho food values of milk.
 Vegetables supply vitamins par ticularly, as do fruits. That is why strained baby foods are given be- fore the end of the first half year. Evidences of vitamin and mineral deficiencies are no longer common, as they once were.
 The other important reason these especially prepared baby foods are started during the first three to four months is to teach babies to eat . variety of foods, of different texture, consistency and flavor, so that they will not be- come addicted to milk and the so- called liquid habit. If your child prefers to drink milk and does not seem to want to eat other foods, give him the others first while he Is hungry, and withhold the milk until the end of the meal.

to rejoice. But our triumph will be empty and short-lived if we do not take to heart the lessons which our suffering has taught us and the heavy responsibility that our vic- tory entails. Looking back on six
 years of waste and carnage, we should pledge ourselves anew to build up a world order in which all nations may dwell in security. The development of weapons of inn- menSe deStructiveness, eliminating in the atomic bomb, has made this matter not merely desirable but vital for the future of civilization. Tn the closest association with oth- CT nations, it will be our task to establish a world order in which war shall ever be banished.
 E. N. Scheiberling, national conn mander, American LegiOn-The fl. nest contribution the American Lee zion can make to humanity in the uncertain years ahead is to remain ever vigilant for tolerance and re- ligious liberty. We have proudly proclaimed to the world that the Legion knows no economic, racial Or political ties or creeds. These words must be translated into deeds as a proof of tolerance. Amid the heated passions of wartime, when anger and hatred were abroad, it was particularly important that we in the Legion should remain cool when confronted by the foes of jus- tice. The greatest of these foes is tolerance-unwillingness to treat fairly persons of all races, all creeds, all colors. Fighting under the Stars and Stripes were men of virtually every race and creed. There were not class or race dis. functions in our fighting forces. No such distinctions should be per- mitted in an America at peace. When they are in evidence, the Le- zion should be the first to stamp them out. There can be no Ameri- canism without lasting tolerance.

! In blunt, hard-hitting language. MT. Meany recited the wartime his- tory of the CIO and of the vocifer- ous opposition of it's left-wing un- ions to the United States policy of aiding Britain before Hitler invaded Russia.
 With equal frankness, the AFL fraternaI delegate exposed the so- called Russian trade unions for what they are-government-domin- ated organizations which serve as dictatorial policemen over workers instead of representing their inter- ests.
 The more radical elements at the British convention here tried to howl MT. Meany down, but did not succeed. He explained the Ameri- can Federation of Labor's policy in full detail, and even though the Bri- tish group may disagree for the time being, expectations are that eventually the BTUC will come around to the federation's position.
 AFL Vice President William c. Doherty, the other fraternal dele gate, gave the British labor repre- sentatives clear picture of econo- mic conditions in America and dis cussed postwar recovery pros poets.
 In a transatlantic radio broad cast, heard in America over the AFL's "Labor-USA" program, Mr. Meany and MT. Doherty reported on developments at the British con- ventioo and described the hardships still facing the British people even though the war has ended.

Labor Advances
 By
 Ruth DembO


 wave of strikes which have been 1 sweeping the country. Among them is . feeling of insecurity on the part of American workers who have not been assured of full em- ployment and an adequate stand
 ard of living in the postwar pe- riod.
 The end of the war has brought
 a sudden drop in take home wages 1 while the cost of living continues
 upward instead of down. During
 the war it was the long overtime 1 hours which helped in many cases to fatten the workers pay envel- ope. Today overtime work has dropped, war plants have closed down, and thousands have been thrown out of work. Reconversion of industry is moving along but at a very slow pace. Workers who de- pend upon their salary from week to week in order to live can't af- ford to wait. The solution to some of these problems is first of all to control prices so that the standard of liv- ing cannot rise any further and secondly to increase wages so that workers on a 40 hour week will have enough to live on. Lewis G. Hines, legislative rep resentative for the AFL, told the Senate Labor and Education Com mittee this week that a 65c an hour minimum wage is absolutely essen- tial to provide American workers with a minimum standard of liv- ing. In fact, MT. Hines said that
 65c an hour would but provide -fourths of the food necessary for a minimum adequate diet as calculated by the Department of Agriculture, $20 month house, and a very minimum of clothing. American industry is able to pro- duce at least a 65c living standard for every American and a far high CT standard for the vast majority of American workers said Mir. Hines.
 Raising the minimum wage will not only help workers it will help business as well, by putting pur- chasing power into the hands of the peope. Business will not fare so we'll if it's merchandise cannot be bought. Therefore it is the coun- try as a whole who would bene- fit from a 65c an hour minimum wage.
 And it is the country as whole that will benefit from continued control on prices. Higher wages will serve no end if prices continue to go up. Therefore we must insure these two things; an adequate wage level and continued control of prices so that the cost of living will
 not skyrocket.

Blackpool, England-AFL Secre- tary- Treasurer George Meany told the British Trades Union Congress some plain truths about the inter national labor situation, much to the discontinue of the left-wing- CTS.
 He informed the British labor convention that the AFL never will become associated with the pro- jected World Trade Federation as long as the CIO and the Soviet Russian union groups are included.

STRAND

SiXty-tWo sets, ranging in size from a sentry box no larger than a telephone booth. to a huge cathe- dral and two castles. were con- structed for the David O. Selznick picture. The Prisoner of Zenda,' % which is current at the Strand Theater with Ronald Colman, Ma deleine Carroll and Douglas Fair banks, Jr., in the leading roles.
 According to Harold Fenton, head of the Selznick International studio construction department, the 4l,900 man-hours of labor involved would be sufficient for the erection of 40 five-room dwellings.
 Building of the sets consumed 100000 board feet of lumber, 53,0Oo squares fleets of plywood, 12,000 pounds of nails, 1900 gallons of paint, and 2,00O sacks Of cement.
 Carpenters contri buted l9,3o0 man-hours of labor; laborers 6,000; painters 6, 700; plasters $500 and grips 4,400.
 The smallest set, the sentry box standing on the border of the mon- archy over which Colman rules as King Rudolf V. was approximately three feet square and six feet high.
 The largest set, the grand ball. room of Strelsau castle, with 8 staircase of 36 risers, a dance floor of 1000 square feet of white en- emaled plywood, was 50 feet wide, 230 feet long.
 Rivaling the grand ballroom in pretentiouSnes were the Strelsau cathedral set, 40 145, and the set representing the great stone hall of Zenda castle, 40 30.
 Other massive or impressive sets included the zenda royal hunting lodge, the dungeons and tunnels of Zenda castle, the drawbridge, port cullis and moat of Zenda castle, the royal gardens of Strelsau castle, the
