ARGUMENTS OPEN
OVER WARD CASE

CHICAGO, Jan. 8.-P)-Govern-
ment and company counsel fought
an all-day legal battle in Federal
court today over the question of
whether President Roosevelt had
statutory and Constitutional au-
thority to seize 16 Montgomery
Ward and Co. properties in seven
cities.
This, the opposing attorneys
agreed is the principal issue of the
lawsuit. The government is asking
declaratory judgement to estab-
lish legality of the seizure Deem
Der q and an injunction to pre-
vent company interference with the
Army now controlling the proper
ties.
Hugh B. Cox, assistant Solicitor
General, asserted the President
had both statutory and constitu-
tional powers Stuart S. Ball,
Wards chief counsel, commended
he had neither.
When court adjourned the argu-
ments were not completed Ball
will continue tomorrow, after which
Solicitor General Charles Fahy
will reply for the Government.
Then Federal Judge Philip L. Sui
Ivan will take the case for a de-
cision which, the government AYERS
will affect the whole wartime ma
chinery for settling labor disputes.

JERUSALEM, Jan. 7.-tCorrect
|-UP)- Arab pickets, who are
members of Jewish trade union,
used Chritian Biblical slogans to-
dav in a strike against an Ann
erican missionary society for bet
ter hours, better pay, one day of
a week and annual vacations.
The strike, called by the Jew
ish union. started a month ago
and IS Arabs, IL of them women,
are taking part in the strike and
picketing. To complcate none
too-sinp1e situation, Arab unions,
which are political enemies of the
Jewish unions, are providing strike
breakers against their fellow
| Arabs.
Today the strikers chalked on
walls around the American hostel,
center for the American colony,
Biblical quotations selected from
Deuteronomy, Amos and Matthew,
such as:

ed servant that is poor and needy.
Thou shalt give him his hire .

ing hours, a cost of living allow
ance, weekly day of rest and
annual vacations.
Government intervention has
been asked, but the problem was
complicated by the fact that Arab
strikers belonged to Jewish union
and refuse to leave it.
Members of the American colony
denounce the strike as under
handed without notice
or attempt at negotiations-and as
really political, charging that the
Jewish union wants to win Arab
members.

than 1000 planes in December. the
fourth consecutive month in which

Pacific has passed that figure.
The December losses, according

the ground. An additional 145 were
probably destroyed. Allied losses
were 30.
In the last four months Of 1914,
Nippon lost 1910 planes in the air,
2,513 on the ground and 319 prob
ables. Allied losses in the same
period were 1892, according to
available official reports which
sometimes did not give figures.
Thus for the last four months
Nlpponese aircraft losses have run
nip and tuck with production.

Stymiie Law
By GEORGE s BENSON President of Harding College
 Seory Arkdnsds

AERIAL bombs and floating mines are going to seem pretty cheap on V-Day. Their values will appear again as minus Quan- titles. Then slow, cautious men will set to work getting rid of them. But there are other in- struments of war more ruinous than any, block-buster ever de- Vised, and we have one; trained on American industry now, ready to start doing serious damage on Armistice Day.
 It is a law against progress. The bill was not passed to stop scientific and industrial develop ment, but if it's on the statute books in peace time 1t will be government freeze of creative work. I am not criticizing the purposes of the act. 1t was passed in 1940 to raise money for national defense and to keep war mongers from profteering on the misfortunes of others.
 Law of THE SENSE of the law Hunger is this: Add up all the
 profits a firm made in four pre-war years, 1936-1939 in- elusive; figure 25eo of the total and call it a sample pre-war years profit. If a corporation earns more than that amount in any year of war, it must pay the government 85% of the difference in special tax. It was effective for war ends, but how will it work in peace time?
 The 1940 tax law has provi- sions that are ruinous to any peo- pie at peace. Small business con- cerns can't grow if the law stands. Huge corporations will fare better. They can stay big and avoid being wrecked by it be-
The sub., 1945-03-31

cause the profits of giant corpo- ration3 (however big) grow slow ly. But the law will paralyze xmall business unless a new act is passed, to take effect at the wars end, repealin0 the mischie~ vous provisions.
 Stops THRIFTY little enter Work prises can't expand be-
 cause their dollars of inc creased profit will be split two ways, 15e to keep and 85t for the government. Many will die as losses on development of new products wipe out their meager capital. Huge firms, which have no need for substantial growth, can develop new products with no danger at all to their strong financial position.
 A big company's losses on new developments can be used to re- duce taxes on profits from old business. In this way, govern ment bears most of such losses for big concerns. It must be re- membered however, that big cor pOrations are too few to solve the nations post war employment problem. Small firms, companies that could double twice and still not be large, are the backbone of Americas prosperity.
 Small companies employ four fifths of the nations workers. They handle the lions share of our national income. What their employees eat makes farm prOs- perity. If these little firms see a chance to earn a profit, they will expand for peace new business and new jobs in large numbers. But if until V-Day they remain scared to expand, America Is stymied and so is the world.

Song of Labor

By MRS. MARY BAILEY DAVIS The USA must take the lead, In every way we can; To end the strife in every land, We do not want to fight again. Because all taxes are too high, They must be soon lowered: So tha> necessities we can buy, And business can expand. That when the boys come home, They won't have fought in vain; They won't have to roam, And fight all over again. They must be given a chance, To earn a proper living; And their lives enhance, After such tough fighting. Money is the root of all evil, But in these modern times We must have it or die,
 Without it we can't live in mod
 ern times. It will mean more fighting, If we don't take the lead; Our boys are fighting and dying To peace eternal the nations
 must be led. There will be a World War II
 depression,
 If we are not very carefuli To see that all the nations, Live forever in relations peace"

He opened with the Rachmani-

an ovation which lasted fully 10
