THE SITUATION: Your child
has a cold, but the weather is
nice and you are letting him
play out of doors.
WRONG WAY: Let him run
around the neighborhood as he
usually does, playing in other
yards and with other children.
RIGHT WAY: Keep him in
his own yard, so as not to ex-
pose other children to his cold.

the record wartime volume of production and the decline in selling costs As wartime volume is cur
 tailed overhead costs per unit and selling costs will more rise further increase in basic wage rates of the magnitude suggested by MT. Hlman when combined with these other increases in costs, will inevitably necessitate sharp increase in prices.
 Attention usually is directed to wartime savings before taxes to prove that industry has the ability to raise wages without the need for price increase Record output rather than higher profit margins has been the main factor contributing to the high level of wartime earnings The point overlooked, however. is that the factors making for decline in wage incomes will also operate to reduce corporate n- comes The most important of these factors will be the reduction in volume contracts cut back
 If too high price IS set product it tends to be priced out of the market and demand is sub stantially curtaed Because of the emphasis given to the purchasing power aspect of wage incomes the fact that labor too price itself out of its market is not widely recognized But there is ample evil dence that this is the Wage adjustments which not related to increases in labor productivity result in increase in costs later There already grave danger that will into the post period with cost-price relationships that balanced. Further wage increases at this time can only help to aggravate this situation.

Aid to RecOnversion
Washington Post

The eeventh-hour passage of bill to speed up tax refunds and credits is designed to improve the cash position of businesses confronted by reconvers financing By raising profits tax exemptions from $0000 to $25000 also offers special incentive to small businesses to enter peacetime production
 Senator George estimates that the net loss to the Treasury from this lowered exemption will amount to l60 million doars-the only actual out-of-Treas- ury cost not provided by law that the bill will entai Under the bill corporations may take the 10 per cent profits tax credit currently instead of providing for refunds As result the cash position of business will be improved by the noncoection of about F billion dollars in in 1945 and 1946 that would not have been returned under the old law for several years after the Moreover, corporations holding postwar refund bonds issued for 1922 and 1943 may cash them after the first of next January instead of waiting several years Altogether the speed-up of refunds and credits will add approximately 52 billion dollars to corporate cash balances during the next two years.
 As Senator George notes, the only change in ulti-
 mate tax liability out of the increase in specific exemptions from excess profits taxes. The measure is not, therefore, tax-reducton program but pro- gram for facilitating reconversion. The volume of working capital belonging to corporations is now at record high levels. For all corporations, the SEC estimates that working capital amounts to the un- precedented figure of 451a billion dollars Neverthe less some industries and individual concerns less we'll endowed with funds than others. And all of them will be much better able to plan for the future if they know that they count upon getting pos session promptly of the cash refunds due them from the Government. By making the cash available when is needed instead of some years after the is over, the shift to peacetme operations will be facilitated at very little cost to the Government

ARMY HOARDS GT's

Some of the reasons behind the War . Department insistence on keeping a tremendous two-front Army to fight a one-front war, also behind the sudden scramble for conscription, have become clearer since PotSdam.
 Brass-hat insistence on keeping veterans busy picking up cigarette butts when they have ample points to obtain discharge, has been puzzling members of congress. Also it's not generally realized that the Army and Navy together plan to reduce their size by only 10 per cent during the coming year, de- spite the new atomic bomb, de- spite Germany's collapse, and de- spite the fact that it is a physical impossibility to transport such a large army to the Pacific.

Wage Increases
(NeW York Times

Sidney Hilman has called for 20 per cent n- in wages and for continuation of price control This wage increase would be designed to offset the decline in weekly earnings of labor resulting from the reduction of overtime and the gradual elimination of other wartime factors contributing to the pay envelope In the various demands for higher wage rates the fact is frequently overlooked that such increases have twofod effect: (a) the purchasing power of workers is increased provided employment is discouraged and (b) the cost of production is increased Although the emphasis is usually given to the former, it is clear that the rise in costs which would attend large increase in basic wage rates is equally important.
 During the period the increase in labor and unit costs has been obscured and has not had to be fully reflected in prices because has been offset in part by the reduction in overhead costs attending

 Uncertain planetary conditions affect the earth today. Good news will dominate all minor interests.
 Heart And Home
 After the domestic uncertainties due to war many families will have difficulty in settling into routine tasks. Summer weather will affect nerves to an unusual degree. For many reasons women of all ages must now exert the utmost self control.
 Business Affairs
 Despite government vigilance, black markets will flourish. The autumn food situation will be even less satisfactory than it has been, but common decency should prevent illicit buying.
 National Issues
 Increase in crime will be marked in coming weeks when the de- structive psychological forces of war will show their effects on civilians devoid of moral fibre. Jails will be overcrowded and eff forts to segregate juvenile offend CTS should be unremitting.
 International Affairs
 Japanese propaganda must be completely eliminated from the news services of the world into which it percolates from the global network of it's great system of mis- information, the seers emphasize Secret channels of information will continue to exist long after United Nations victory is won.

 service with the Army.)

WASHINGTON - Inside fact is that Stalin agreed as far back as the Teheran Conference to come into the war against Japan. That was the price he agreed to pay in return for the Second Front in Normandy. Churchill was op
 posed to the Second Front through France, but Stalin insisted on it., and FDR threw his weight with Stalin in return for the pledge to Japan. More recently at Pots dam, Truman took the whole matter up again with Stalin. :. Chief thing the Russians have been worrying on to prepare for the Jap war is re-laying the Trans Siberian Railway. A total of 30000 miles of track has now been laid, one of the biggest, quickest rail- building jobs in history. |. In return for Russian entry into the Jap war, it was agreed that Russia would get Allied military secrets. The atomic bomb at that time was only an idea, and no one knew whether or not it would material iZe. AS far as can be aScertained, it was not disclosed with the Rus sians.
 Apparently, the Russians were thinking about an atomic weapon for long time. Twenty years ago, Louis Lehman. concertmaster of the New York Philharmonic Orchestra, went to Utah to invest in uranium mines. He had been tipped off by his brother, a physicist in Ger many, who foresaw the tremendous possibilities of pitchulende and in- formed his brother in this country that experiments made it advisable to purchase options on uranium deposits. The options are be- lieved to have lapsed For some unexplained reason, a staff of publicity men from Ivy Lees public relations office has been quartered at the highly secret Oak Ridge, Tenn, site of the atomic bomb plant for several months. .. Ivy Lee is the man who largely reversed American antipathy for the elder John D. Rockefeller. What he was doing for the Army remains to be seen. There is something awfully funny about the sudden retraction of scientist Harold Jacobsons statement that for 10 years human life cannot survive in an area struck by an atomic bomb, and that rain falling in that area will poison neighbor- ing areas when carried away in streams. The army'S haste to deny the story, coupled with an army statement that pr. Jacobson was bound to secrecy under the Espionage Act made lot of people examine the facts twice. The army

BIG GAMBLE PAYS

Though a lot of people deserve credit for developing the new atomic bomb, one man stood above them all as the greatest single factor in it's development-Fra Franklin D. Roosevelt.
 Only a few people knew the de- tails of how Roosevelt approached this greatest and most fantastic weapon of international warfare However, when he finally decided to pour $2,000,000,000 of the na- tion's resources into hundreds of miles of government-own fac tories certain to consume the en- ergies of half a million critically needed workers at the peak of the war, he was gambling, not only the nations resources, but his own name in history.
 Had the project failed, Roose- welt would have been the goat. The vast plants in Tennessee and Washington state would have been scoffed at as "Roosevelt's greatest white elephant" Political oppon- ents could have used it to keep the Democratic Party out of power for decade.
 ched.
 Nor is it generally known that the man who prodded Roosevelt hardest to undertake the atomic project was another "star-gazing' official, former Vice President Henry Wallace. Wallace was the missionary for the project, one ot the few key men in government who understood the theory of the i atom and who, as friend oi the worlds greatest scientists spurred Gen Marshall and wal agency heads into speedier action
 Note-Incidentally, 1t was Wal lace's dreamy-eyed experimentation With new type of corn that will give the world 400,0O0,000 more bushels of corn to feed the hungry this year. So perhaps the "crack pot professors" and the starry eyed dreamers' Roosevelt brought to Washington were worth while after all

 immediately after VIE Day, was 8,300000 men. Between June 1945 and June 1946, the Army brass hats plan to discharge approximately 100000 men. But, meanwhile, Gen Hershey has announced that the Army plans to continue drafting men at the rate of 100000 per month, which, in 12 months, means an additional 100000 men.
 This is something the Army has not explained. For, unless this policy is changed, the army by next June will be about the same size it is today.
 All this is why Senators and Congressman have been blowing off steam in recent weeks. Even staunch Democrats are beginning to admit privately that perhaps overnor Dewey's campaign charges about keeping men in the Army after the war were right

SPORT FLASHES
By c. Poist

Shotguns Again!-- On Saturday,
May 9Th, the War Production Board
revoked its limitation on TIE manu-
facture of shotguns for civilians.
This doesn't mean, however, that
you can go to your local hardware
store in a week or two and get new
gun. The material used in their pro-
duction is not yet available to the
manufacturers and probably won't be
for several months.
Law Enforcement
Maryland is putting teeth in en-
forcement of it's non-tidal waters law
now. The reason is, the appointment
of new warden by the name of Fred
Marvel. This means no fishing above
the tidewater mark without resi-
dent or nonresident license. Fred is
honest and square and know he will
lake care of the violators both local
and out of state on the Susquehanna.
In my opinion, Maryland has been
lax in its law enforcement as COM
pared to some other states not only
in the sport of fishing but also hunt
ing. It is a well-known fact that
Maryland has temporary residents
who know no closed seasons and who
know no bag limits. The question Is
asked: Why aren't they apprehend-
ed? The answer is: Too few wardens.
To curb this practice, the state would
have to deputize at least twenty well
known sportsmen in each district
The present set-up of reporting Is as
out-of-date as horse and buggy.
The violator has to be caught in the
act or with the goods. These deputy
sportsmen would be willing to serve
without pay to see game increase
within the county.
Pollution
Each State has it's own pollution
problem and none has solved it salts
factorily. Although some are making
progress in the right direction,
hope. 1t looks as if we are nation
content to muddle along through foul
streams and rivers needlessly pollut-
ed by careless municipalities and in
drustries powerful enough to get
away with it. My idea of the cure: A
Federal Anti-Pollution law with
teeth in it to apply to every state.
Our chances of getting it are very
slim right now.
