BY the Way
BETH BLAINE

The secretary of the District OF
Columbia Chapter of the Red Cross
Motor Corps is Mrs. Charles p
Trussell, and to say that her volun-
teer job is a busy one is very much
of an understatement. 1t entails
a variety of duties such as keeping
all the records of training classes
hours put in by the drivers, list Of
equipment, information on the en-
tire active list of Motor Corps per-
sonnel there are 215 on the active
list as of this writing) and an
equally extensive list of those in
active.
Three to four full days a week
Mrs. Trussell gives to Motor Corps
part to her secretarial duties, part
to driving. She is one of the
women in the Motor Corps who is
allowed to drive the big vans and
the rotary bus-which means she
is tops as a driver.
The system of the corps works
like this. An applicant is given a
l5-hour course on motor mechanics
which includes suggestions on
driving and instruction on the care
of equipment, after which she takes
the first road test and If she quail
fies is eligible to drive station wag-
on for the corps. After so hours
work, and the first aid and advanced
first aid courses, she is eligible to
take the ambulance test and to
order her Motor Corps uniform.
Her tests for the big vans, the mo-
bile canteen, the stake truck and
the rotary bus are at the discretion
of the experts, after she has dis
played special ability in driving.
AS you doubtless know, the Red
Cross Motor Corps serves every
other corps in the chapter as we'll
as the National Red Cross, and
mans two station wagons for the
Navy Yard Without the Motor
Corps, Red Cross services could
not function as quickly and easily
and efficiently as they do. This is
especially true of the important
Blood Donor Center, which de-
pends enormously on the Motor
Corps to transport donors to and
from the center.
Are drivers needed?" I asked
Mrs. Trussell. Indeed, yes" she
said. I'm transient city like Wash
ington We are constantly losing
some of our best workers, as they
are transferred to other cities. We
must have new drivers to replace
them"
A native Of Washington, Mrs.
Trussell says she was brought up
in the Nations Capital and aired
in our own Dupont Circle. She was
graduated from both Western High
School and George Washington
University. She has two sons, one
in the Navy, the other pupil at
Woodrow Wilson School. Her hus-
band is with the Washington office
of the New York Times.

tor Corps, call Republic $500, ex-

These production cuts by no means imply dissolution of the partnership between the aircraft industry and the Army Air Forces" ," General Arnold said. "We will be working in closer cooperation than ever, with the difference being that our immediately goal now is the reconversion to civilian pro- dpction."
 Emphasizing the continuing need for aircraft research and develop ment, the Commanding General of the Army Air Forces pointed out that the provisions of the United Nations Charter call for the main- tenance of an air force by the United States to assure the world security. He referred to Article AS of the United Nations Security Council Organization which pro- vides Tn order to enable the Unit ed States to take urgent military measures members shall hold im- mediately available national air force contingents for combined in- ternational enforcement action"
 Continuing in production will be certain types of planes, most of which will represent the continu- ing experimental and research work in which the Army Air Forces and the aircraft industry will cooperate, it was said. These planes embody advanced principles of design and construction, and their continued production will further vitally important aviation progress and development. They include the new models now i'll the experimental stage which in- corporate not only the valuable experience learned during this war, but also new inventions and de- velopnients in aerodynamics, pro- pulsion and electronicS.
 We can only assure compliance with this provision of the United Nations Charter if we maintain the production and technological skills which aircraft manufacture during the war developed to such high degree" General Arnold concluded.

Federal Trade to Revive Campaign
 Against Monopoly

Now that the war is over the Federal Trade Commission, the agency Woodrow Wilson created to police business, is once more prepared to take the trail in pur- suit of monopolists and price fxers
 When this country got into the war, the monopolists and other big law violators ran to the Army and Navy and complained that F. T. C.. prosecutions were interfering with the war effort.
 Hands Are United
 Of course, the war weapons and supplies were produced by workers, factory managers and technical men-not by the corporation "big shots'' and lawyers responsible for violations of the antitrust laws. Nevertheless, the Army and Navy got the White House to tell the F. T. c. and Justice Department to Hay off," and they did so.
 Now the war is over and the monopoly prosecutions are to be resumed at the point where they were suspended several years ago.
 This same sort of thing hap pened back in the 1930's, when the late President Roosevelt established the National Recovery Administra- tion to combat the depression.
 The N. R. A. codes permitted in- dustrialists to combine and act In many ways forbidden by the anti trust laws, so the latter laws were suspended at Roosevelt's request and the F. T. c. and Justice De- partment stopped their prosecu- tionS.
 White House Nullified Laws
 After the Supreme Court de- clared N. R. A. unconstitutional, many industrialists tried to con- tinue the monopoly, price-fixing and production limiting practices which had been sanctioned by the codes. The F. T. C. and Justice Department called halt, told the monopolists the antitrust law lid was back on again, and resumed their prosecutions.
 Thus, in depression and war, the two great emergencies which
 faced this country in the past
 10 years, the White House nul- lifted laws passed by Congress and permitted mOnOpOliSts to flourish undiSturbed.
