Reflections
CHRISTMAS!
BY u ellen ROWLAND

HOW WE mortals love to be
fooledI The little gods of whom
we're fondest are those who
spemi their time deeeiviHg us
Dap e Fortune, Santa Claus and
Gu pid.
For eleven months Of the
Year, we may laugh satirically
jit love and life and the world
in general. But at this magic
time, something gets into the
dulleSt imagination; the bleak
est heart and the weariest pulse
quicken their tempo and stir it
70 a joyous rhythm. That's the
well-known Christmas spirit!
The dangerous woman in a
bachelors life is not the temp.
tress who is trying to lure him
to the altar, but the innocent
looking matchmaker who is
determined TO marry him off,
and is always inviting him to
dinner 10 meet some sweet girl.
1T is not always fair to judge
a man by his Christmas gift.
Because-for 364 days in the
year-a man may understand
a woman perfectly; but on
Christmas Day, she suddenly be-
comes an anomaly, a mystery
a total stranger TO him.
Next to the paralyzing prob
lem of what to give a girl, the
most perturbing and irritating
thing about Christmas, TO
man, Is the terrifying thought
of what she may give him,
tween this Scylla and
Charybdis, it is no wonder that
so many good husbands, lovers
and bachelors begin drowning
their sorrows on Christina
Eve!
MANY A popular man-about-
town. glancing over his yuletidc
offerings on Christmas morn
ing, wonders why God gave
women so much heart and so
little common sense.
Some husb bands observe
G hris [ m Sand others just
close their~eyes and cross their
fingers until the excitement and
danger have passed.
Christmas Day, like the first
kiss, is sometimes just little
disappointing. The sweetest
part of rither is that ecstatic,
anticipatory time-just before.

from both Pacific and European
fronts, are blinded by the news
on the front page and never get
back into the paper to the home
front news where ii tells about
the battle of production.
When more curious souls start
looking for reasons why the
number of working people has
declined in the past year and a
half, they find some strange
things going on.
The number of people employ
ed in munitions industries has
also declined by 100000 work
ers, according to Bureau Of Lab
or Statistics figures. Require
ments are still rated by the War
Manpower Commission as 600,-
600 workers needed for NUM-
tons industries by July /. That's
the same figure that has been
kicked around for the last three
months. VINO thinks it's just
great that the situation isn't any
worse in view of all the troubles
the u. S. Employment Service
has in recruiting additional war
workers, but that doesn't solve
the problem.
Right alongside the require
ments figure it should be noted
that unemployment has gone up.
Laugh that one off. From the
wartime low of 100000 in Aug
ust, 1941, total unemployment
today is estimated at 100000, a
rise of 100000. If the unem-
ployed could be shifted to take
the 100000 jobs in war indus
tries that are now going begging,
everything would be dandy.
But it doesn't seem to be that
easy. Alibis offered for the in
crease in unemployment are that
it is temporary unemployment,
caused by shifting war contracts

nesium production, and contract

WASHINGTON, d. c, Off
the-record explanation for the
night club curfew order, as CIV
en- by one of the top war agency
heads, is that if man can't get
drunk enough by midnight he
hasn't any business staying up
any later.
That should settle the argu-
ment on the night club front, but
in complaining about some of
the recent orders affecting the
race track front, the New Bed
ford, Mass, textile mill front,
the b a C k = Observation-Disclosures
marquee front, and the proposed
work or-else legislation in gen.
eral, most people are completely
overlooking some of the funda-
mental facts of life in wartime.
First is the fact that the labor
force of the United States is act
ually shrinking and has been
growing smaller for the past
year. Total employment in jan
ary-last full month for which
Bureau of Census figures are
available-was 50,120,000. This
is lower than total employment
in the u. S. has been at any
time since February, 1912, three
months after Pearl Harbor. 1t
is nearly five million less work
ers than were employed at the
peak in July, 1943, from which
date employment has been
steadily declining.
Today there simply aren't
enough people to do all the
things that need to be done.
That, coupled with the fact that
the munitions programs have
been stepped up by nearly 20
per cent over the estimates of a
year ago, accounts for much of
the agitation for tighter man.
