OUR THANKS

for his kindness and courtesy in
getting us started in our new To-
cation. While our name appeared on

really the work of Mr.. Rowe. me
new management officially took
possession last Thursday, March !,
but as our arrival in Libby was not
until Tuesday noon. it is obvious
that The Western News last week
would have been "a short horse
soon curried" had not the former
manager and publisher remained on
the lob and seen that work OF get
ting out the paper moved along as
usual.
Our friends services did not
cease with the mailing OF the issue,
but he kindly and efficiently spent
the balance of the week assisting
us in gathering together the loose
ends Of a new business, meeting
many of the Libbyites, and get
ting started on this issue OF The
Western News. We find it easy to
believe that Mr.. Rowe exemplifies
the life of a good citizen and a
christian BeAticiidii.
And speaking of good citizens
and Christian gentlemen Most OF
us may "cuss' little when the
hammer our thumb nail instead
of the nail in the board; and maybe
we find it hard to get up on a cold
Sunday morning in time to stoke
the family furnace and go to church.
But who among us, be he sam. or
sinner fails to respect Just a little
more the good citizen who IS a
faithful piller in the church OF his
choice, be he catholic or protestant,
Jew or gentile--if his life the other
six days measures up to his Sunday
professions

the drawing office down has never been insisted on before), Is being used as a reason in some cases, I am told, for redoing work already done. If 1t Is true that the adjust ment coming out of cutbaek reor- ganization has given US fertile soil for the growth of that supervisory enmity that developed from the supposedly healthy competition of full sped ahead days, then 1t is time that some corrective measures were taken,
 One war at @ time should be enough. Watch how the kiss of hatred seems to be working: it Is difficult Go believe that any room Is left in the hearts of responsible parties for dislike of mere small fry like Hitler and Herihito.
 I realize 6hat this subject can be red hot, I would not trouble with it if 1t were not; but as fellow trade unioniSes we ought to take no part in this yard jelousy. whether we be north yard or victory yard workers. No fellow worker is a north yard Noah's Ark mechanic, nor victory yard metamorphised soda jerker. We are in this war ef- fort as units of labor organization with a record of intelligent con- duct, so let US leave that exhibition of personal spleen and want of vi- sion to the supervisory force, and top management; so that when the chips fall, as they surely will. they will fall in the right place. Do not miss this point; that 1t is easy for a worker to understand discrimination on the part of com- peting supervisors, because of jealousy-the greatest of ail human fraiities. but difficult to figure his fellow worker aiding and abeting that discrimination.

On April II, Mrs. James MOrri- son, president of the League of Women Voters will be interviewed on Dumbarton Oaks and the future world security organization to be decided upon April 25 at San Fran- cisco.

In reply to rumors concerning
the danger of swimming IN Green

County Health Officer, stated To-
day that the condition OF the water
there warrants no alarm. AT tne
time of the last routine Inspector,

swimming pool. the water retain an

water in three catagories: A, b.
and c, and Greenfield has consls-
tently maintained B rating, which
makes it safe for swimming.
Though the bacterial content OF
the water is usually high, and the
rate of turnover slow there, the
officials have pronounced 1t SAFE
for swimming. No case OF typholo
has ever been traced to swimming
in Greenfield Lake, he added.
Dr.. Elliott, did, however, warn

The Aftermath Of London

The gloomy fiasco of the Council of Foreign Minis ter in London has presented two facts which are clearly visible even at great distance and through veil Of secrecy there must be attempt to reach agreement on peace terms and before that attempt even approach success the differences that split the London meeting must be resolved
 Whether the next attempt is another foreign minis ters conference meeting or full dress conference of the United Nations depends on the Big Three But the form less important than the heeo for a basic Big Three agreement
 Much has been made of the fact that Secretary ByrneS came to the recent unsuccessful meeting an unprpareo "amateur" But 1t is doubtful that an American dele gation armed with the most mecuouSy prepared pro- tocol would have fared much better. For Mr. Moloov presented hard-headed program based on political and diplomatic philosophy that is dametrcally opposed to most AngloAmercan beliefs It is clear that the So yiet Union does not believe in equal soveregnty the Big Three won the World War and must dictate the world peace without allowing the small nations voice in thei own destiny

 All this does not necessarily that Russia IS travel inr a cynical road toward world domination Quite pos sby the Russian government, in It's own eyes is acting fairly justly and democratlcaly The trouble Is simply that Russas whole of action Is repugnant to the western democraces. And those denocracies whatever their faults have had longer, more peaceful and more successful experience In government o by and for the people
 And so there must inevitably be showdown Per- haps the United States needs better preparation before the next peace meeting. But certainly this government vlecrousy We have strong weapons in dollars great productive capacity and an atomic bomb. Russia wants some of the first needs the help of the second and respects the third Backed by these weapons American states
