But the President and Jimmy Byrnes insisted so fell Riddle to be the fall guy with Charlie behind the scenes to ease the fall With the situation as it was, it is recognized he did good job Such things as Biddles being snapped in pie ture at the last convention in Chicago with rdicu lous paper hat askew on his head doing some kind of jig that gave the appearance of his being tipsy gave Malconlson many sleepless night.
 Frequently these information men turn up with something that saves the taxpayer dough and makes everybody happy One of the best recent examples performed by Bob Horton, head of public relations for the Maritime Commission and of the best known of his clan in government and newspaper circles.
 For many months the Navy had beer trying declared surplus They couldn't get rid of them at $
 piece. and finally in utter disgust turned them over to Maritime.
 Horton got his staff together and talked it over. Result was flood of attractive posters and descrip tive material showing how these rafts could be used at summer resorts. The whole she bang was sold at 50 smackers each.
 Selling oPA to the public has been the toughest public relations job in government steady stream professors has tried and thrown hands up iu despair former college professor, Bob Brooks who has been with OPA for long time is currently trying to co the job, and succeeding better than average.

Catching Our Second Breath!

This is written part to express open admiration of the wartime industrial workers of Waterbury who are
 idle They have accepted the enforced necessity of this temporary status with foresight dignity and common The entire city depends their continuation of this attitude until that time when reconversion to full peacetime production of commodities has been effected
 The picture of Waterburys situation thus far is some thing of the following The greatest of history has been ended Its toll of staggering magnitude Its victory is thrilling Industrialy the most magnificent accomplish ment has been concluded with the end of this war
 result of this conclusion of industrial program in this city and elsewhere, there comes natural normal Hull, state of inactivity before resume ordinary routine It may be kened to any crisis in individual lives when event has necesstated Gas did the war in collective ves our throwing aside ordinary routine for the sake of eversh and intensely sober activity AS Tn normal lifetime when such crisis has ended, always sit back for second breath toward again adjusting our selves to the normal.
 The current industrial inactivity might be kened to that period of catching second breath Or to go further let say that entire system of democratic economies now catching it's second breath Our markets for the sorpton sale of commodities wartime machinery thin by top-speed production demands scale of
 living which has been at an abnormal peak insofar as in have been concerned-and too-insofar taxation is concerned and last but not least of proportion as to many things which, for the past four years has been ackedup so to speak and then braked by stringent federal controls which in themselves artificial at best that should be utilized only in wartmes and such crisis
 All this the wartime industrial workers of Waterbury have given evidence of knowing All this the industrial business and retail Waterbury, because it is closer to the economics of reconverson has forseen ing Common knowledge of this type combined in unified effort and communal good is bound to bring success our reconversion efforts
 We firmly support the efforts of President Truman to provide for these idle workers during the interim period of their inactivity We extend such support because we are of the firm belief in addition that the President has desire to permit such status to endure longer than possible and practical Extendng helpful hand to man over an Interim crisis is and should be an essential democracy! Handing out lifetime of dole is not among of the free domS for which men have fought!)
 The management of Waterbury seeks prosperous and productive years It is to their benefit and the comunys this they know full we'll The workers of Waterbury seek the goals for their families and the community Again the unified ambitions!
 Let us all buckle down to patient intelligent ten pered solution toward speedy reconverson and employ ment It is common boat we paddle!

WOMEN AT WORK
New Haven Journal-courier)

(New Haven Journal -Courier)
 The fair sex, which responded so nobly to wartime tasks and did all manner of jobs from driving rivets to driving buses, now faces the peace-time dilemma-to work or not to work. To many of them the end of the war means the willing laying down of the tools of industry. They have awaited the day when they should turn again to the joys of home and family. Others, who per- haps would like to keep their em- ployment, will be obliged to stop working because the job they had will no longer exist.
 The impact of the wars end on employment will, it is predicted, be felt sharply in the next month or two by civilian women war workers. The Women's Bureau of the Labor Department in Washington fore casts that more than .2,500,000 wom- en would be hunting jobs by nlid- November. Although more than that number of the 17,500,O00 women now working will be out of work, it is estimated that at least million may not seek unemployment after discharge. Those are the ones who worked while their husbands were away, or for purely patriotic reas- onS.
 If New York state can be a cri- ter;cn for the rest of the country, more than four-fifths of the wom- en now working will want to con- tinue to do so now that the war is over. A survey there showed that a great majority of the women recognized the right of servicemen to return to their jobs, but about one-third felt that in distribution of postwar jobs need should be an important consideration. Of the 82 per cent who said they expect to work or will need work when the war ends, only seven per cent want to continue working for reasons other than to support themselves or their families.

Views Of The Press

apple pie. All, men nave agreed, are edible. For they are, at least apple in intention and content and free from meringue or some strange fill ing resembling yellow photo paste At the lowest level, perhaps, is the pie made from canned apples-ap- pies often in rather juiceless chunks. sometimes with the unwelcome ad- ditions of few seeds and too much cinnamon. Next comes the pie brave ly made of fresh apples. but in which the apples are underdone and the crust too saddle-like in color ard texture. And there is. also, the pie having an interior very much like interned applesauce and a bot tom crust like noodles.
 But pie-loving man, praise be. need not in August put up with any of these lower levels. For now is the very zenith of apple piedom-a time when pies can be made from those early apples whose tartness and summer juices give effect and flavor between crusts which no later pro- duct of frosty October orchard can quite equal. A pie made of Red Astrachan or Duchess of Oldenbure apples might well be served without cutting to any appreciative soldier just off the boat. Yet, it must be good to come home to peace and ap- pie pie now.

knows everything that's going on in an agency and is present when top policy is being formed. He's the peoples representative at meetings when the big shots get together to decide what regulation to throw at the public. It's usually his decision as to whether the public can take it or not.
 Keeping the big boss out of trouble with the press frequently becomes a major task for these public relations men.

With the manpower shortage the Bureau could not expect to increase its forces approximately with the number of taxpayers And in many respects Bureau employees found their work increased out of proportion to the number of returns. Under the withholding program, large part of the work for- merly done by the taxpayer is now done in the Bureau
 The Bureau has always proceeded upon the theory that the average American is honest, and that small but efficient force could deal with the dishonest
 But millions of us are now taxpayers and the honest must be protected against those among us who, tempted by war-swollen incomes and shortages in civilian goods and services would cheat the rest of us No city, however small, afford to be with out police force. And no city, which has experi- enced population increase of more than ten-fold in fiye,year period. would think of trying to get along without enarging its law enforcement groups.
 That is why the Treasury is building up its in- vestigative forces. Our objective is to recruit and train 5000 men.
 This will be Gestapo It will be taxpayers law enforcement group protecting the governments interest in taxes and at the same time protecting the honest taxpayer against the black market operator, the racketeer and every other kind of tax evader. And it will be good business too. We expect to col- lect $2O for every one spent.
 Much more than expediency directs this tax evasion campaign Fundamental morality is involved. The man who evades taxes picks his neighbor's pock ct. And in these times when we are asking so much from the men in uniform any pocket picking at their expense becomes unthinkable. As President Truman has said:
 we are not fighting this war to make million- aires, and certainly we are not going to allow. the black-market operators any other rackeeers to be in 8 favored class, when the men in the armed forces and citizens generally sacrificing so heavily"
 My readers may say "All right. Tax evasion is indefensibe. How bad is it? What are you doing about it?"
 The answers to the two questions go together. The Treasury is gathering, from many sources, in formation that will give the entire picture of tax evasion. That information will evidence to bring tax evaders to justice The Treasury is larging its Investigating forces have noted, to handle tremendous backlog of fraud cases, cumuated during recent years and the cases now pilng in My predecessor, Secretary Morgenthau,

A PIE TO COME BACK TO
lNew York Herald Tribunel

(NeW 4OrK HeralU 1TlDllne)
 One is not surprised to hear from restaurant and hotel homogeneous that returned soldiers have yen for apple pie. From the time of Ralph Waldo Emerson to Eugene Field. apple pie. with or without cheese, has besn a mans dish. In late years masculine pie eaters have grieyed, we think. to see mild fem inizing of pastry give vogue to such weaknesses in pies as lemon chiffon or banana cream. For your true ap- ple-pie fan, it appears. looks upon all such pies as ephemeral absurdi- ties. and he may be seen glnmly eat ing rice pudding to avoid them.
 Like gradations of happiness. there are, of course. varieties of
