Applauds Mr.. Hilton's Views

To the Editor Of The Star:
Washington ministers of all faiths and
al school personnel should read the
article, who Will Lead?" by James
Hilton in This Week Magazine of The
Star for Sunday, November Is. What
q great step it would be toward the
peace Of the world, if our leaders
would take to heart the advice Of the
author! Mr.. Hilton says: IT had =
child who wanted to be teacher,
would bid him Godspeed as If he were
going to war. For indeed the war
against prejudice, greed and ignorance
is eternal ." He also says that:
"It is not a soft-hearted job of teaching
us to loye our enemies or even our
friends; It is hard-hearted job of shar-
ing the same world with all sorts of
people; whether we like them or not"
In short, Mr.. Hilton's article implies
a task that challenges our public school
teachers, administrators and educators.
To me it seems more important to teach
the oncoming generation those attitudes
which are needful to avoid the destruc-
ton of the physical world itself rather
than 20 blindly on teaching the regular
school subjects which will amount to
nothing unless we can avoid another war.

The Political Mill
By Gould Lincoln

The employment-andu unemployment
estimates, gathered by the Census
Bureau have been most encouraging,
when the strikers are not taken into
consideration. In the census surveys,
the definition of unemployed" is people
looking for work. This excludes workers
on strike from the totals given for un-
employed. 1t excludes, too, those work.
ers on leave, on sick leave, and those
who have jobs and are only laid of for
a Temporary periodicals to which they
will soon return.
The census figure for unemployed in
the first week of October were 100000.
This was actually decrease Of 100000
in unemployed ranks from the first week
in September. Within brief time, new
figures will be published by the bureau,
showing the extent of unemployment in
the first week OF November, which will
give still better indication Of the trend.
In many localities there are still jobs
that have not been filled. srf q
The overall picture of employment
contained in census estimates is en-
couraging also These figures cover
workers IA years of age and up. There
was a substantial increase In the num-
Der Of civilian employed workers from
September to October.
The consuming public, however, is
still waiting anxiously to be able to
purchase goods and supplies which have
not been available, or available only in
small quantities, during the war. 1t
has money in its pockets, in the bank
and in war savings. This great reser-
voir Of buying power may be dissipated
the money being expended for travel.
for amusements of all kinds-to some
extent before the goods come on the
markets. unless there is more speed in
production and distribution. Strikes
are not calculated, either, to maintain
the general purchasing power of the
people.
There are many riddles which the
man in the street would like to have
answered. For example. he has been
unable to purchase ordinary white or
colored shirts-and this has been true
for a long time. and from coast to
coast. These are standard goods. and
necessities. Yet despite the fact the
war has been over for more than three
months. they still cannot be found In
many stores.

Out Of Business
By David Laurence
From the Providence journal.


It Is of considerable significance that
two nationally known private enterprises
have just announced that they are clos
ing permanently because of labor trou-
bles. The Higgins Shipyard in New
Orleans, which during the war employed
$4,000 workers, is going out of business.
Its owner, plagued by a jurisdictional
strike and harried by provisions of the
Wagner law which he complained COM
PEELED him to hire nonproductive labor,
has closed his plant except for single
unit engaged in secret work on the
atomic bomb. From Chicago comes a
similar story. John l.. Keeshin, head
Of one OF the Nations largest trucking
firms, declared that he was quitting the
business because Of Impossible labor
demands" In his case, he explained,
1t was not only unreasonable wage de-
mands, but insistence of workers on
"featherbed" rules that finally made him
decide to 60 out Of business. About 5000
workers thus permanently lost their Jobs.
These two cases are more than matters
OF real concern to the communities in
which they occurred. In very real
sense, they involve the welfare of tn.
whole Nation. For they are sympto-
matte OF growing restlessness among
many businessmen who, bedeviled by
Government regulations that restrict
the exercise Of their best Judgment in
business affairs and harried by taxes and
reconversion troubles, are unwilling to
assume the added burden of combating
unreasonable demands Of their workers.
The game. IN their opinion, Is not worth
the candle.
