FRENCH SWING
 LEFT IN ELECTION
 HELD YESTERDAY

PARIS, Sept. 24.-The ill-clad, im- poverished people of France appear cd today to have swung overwhelm- ingly to the left as Socialists and Communists piled up gains in local government elections.
 Returns from yesterdays voting are incomplete, but with one-third of the ballots tabulated for 90 coun- cils General-equivalent to Ameri- can State teLegislatures-Communists have gained g seats and Socialists 102.
 The Center, represented by the Radical-Socialists and minor par ties, had lost 53 seats, while the Right wing, represented by Paul Reynaud's followers and other group ings, had dropped 121.
 No complete census of party strength will be available for an- other week, since many candidates failed to obtain majorities. There will be run-off election Sept. 30 to decide these seats, at which time the usual fusion of tickets will again confuse party lines.
 Detailed assessment of France s political complexion will have to wait until the national elections on October g decide the fate of the fourth republic.

GIRL SCOUT UNIFORM
 EXCHANGE IS PLANNED

A plan for a Girl Scout and Brownie uniform exchange is being inaugurated here, at the suggestion of Mrs. Eva Crittenden during her meetings here with the Girl Scout Council, Troop Leaders and commit tee members.
 Many of the Brownies and Girl Scouts outgrow their uniforms while still serviceable and when this hap pens, the uniforms are very often left hanging in the clothes closet, un- used.
 To avoid this, the girls are request ed to notify their Troop Leaders at their next meeting if they have a uniform available, or to bring note from their mothers, stating size and price desired.
 Arrangement will then be made for collecting the uniforms, which of course must be cleaned and pressed, for re-selling them to other Girl Scouts and Brownies.

The old-fashioned theory of not
spending money unless you have it,
to which a few die-hards adhered
before the war, will probably dis
appear almost entirely when guam.
titles of postwar merchandise are
displayed before our admiring eyes.
DANGER laws
There has been much debate
among businessmen and econom-
lists over the question of whether
widespread installment sales and
personal loans are dangerous to
the economic health of our nation.
There is no doubt that many peo-
running a family budget, use this
new-found form of credit to de-
gree far beyond their means. So
cial workers have plenty of ex-
amples to offer of families which
spend so much relief money for in
stallemnt purchases that they soon
don't have enough left to buy food.
But we doubt if it is the business
of government to regulate expendi-
lures of our personal money. If
store wants to give us credit, and II
we want to assume debts, that is
matter which should not concern
government.
Government, however, could
do lot to protect the people
against tricky contracts which
are so often involved in easy
payment plans and in personal
loans. Our lawmakers could
enact more stringent provisions
regarding the interest that can
be charged, the wording which
must be contained in contracts,
and governing the "extras"
which are so often involved in
loans of all kinds.
1t Is up to business and the con-
sumner to decide whether INSTALL
ment purchases should be encour-
aged. but it seems to be a natural
function of government to control
theft by legal verbiage just as
much as 1t forbids other forms of
robbery.
CONTRACTS lawyers
The so-called loan sharks who
used to prey on people in financial
difficulties and often succeeded in
taking over everything they owned,
have been driven in to the hills"
in most states.
But there are still plenty of ex-
amples of people being charged ex-
The Coolidge examiner., 1945-07-13

orbitant fees for installment pur-
chases and personal loans-usually
hidden fees which do not show up
clearly in the contract or which
are tackled on after verbal arrange
ments have been completed. One
faVorite method is to insure the
loans and charge a ridiculously
high insurance fee.
Most people, VINO are not fa-
miliar with legal terms, are
very much confused by these
contracturaI arrangements.
They agree to things they
would oppose if they UNDER
stood them. But, since they do
not want to pay legal fees in
connection with their purchas-
es, there is nothing for them
to do but take a chance.
1t seems to me it would be an
invaluable service to the people,
who are becoming more and more
confused by legal language, if law
yers would hold clinics to assist
with small problems. The medical
profession always has given some
of its time to free or low-priced
aid to those who can't pay regular
fees. If lawyers would do the
same thing it would be of great

Today and Tomorrow

BUYING instaIlments
Installment purchases reached
the highest peak in history just be-
fore the war. At that time the peo-
pie of the United States owed about
10 billion dollars on purchases or
small loans-an average of over
$500 for every family in the coun-
try.
AS a result of wartime regula-
tions and scarcities of merchandise,
this total has been considerably
cut down. But there is every rea-
son to expect as soon as things
get back to normal, that Install
ment sales will soar to new heights.
This method of purchasing every
thing from electric irons to $4,000
homes on an easy-payment basis
has got into our blood and, although
many of us have suffered because
of it, we haven't suffered nearly
enough to keep from being tempted
again.
When the advertisers start
going to work on Us, and offer
US washers and refrige rators
for "onIy $40 Down." new
automobiles for old (plus a
couple of years of monthly pay
ments), houses for 10 per cent
cash, and thousands of gadgets
for few pennies a day, we're
apt to start buying as we never
