OUR ANNUAL BONFIRE

The record of vital statistics shows
that on an average, 10000 persons
lose their lives each year in fires. And
many times that number suffer inca
pacitating or painful burns and in
juries. Seven thousand of these
deaths occur in homes where more
than 100000 fires were reported last
year. The victim sof these home fires
are largely women and children.
During the last IL months, Amer
lea burned $444 ,225,000 worth of
property-the highest fire loss in 2
years. This huge accumulation OF
buildings and goods was wasted at a
time when the world is crying for all
kinds of food, clothing, building ma
terials and commodities of every
kind. While striving to conserve re-
sources to produce and supply the
products for our own as well as other
nations, our annual bonfire consumed
nearly half billion dollars in pro
perty.

FREEZER LOCKER BELTS

More frozen food locker plants
were opened in the IL months ending
June 80, 1945, than in any previous
year, according to reports to TIE u
S. Department of Agriculture from
State Extension Services. An increase
of 1882 plants brought the total to
6,464 compared with only 1870
plants listed in 1910.
The count revealed two belts
where food locker developments have
been most rapid-on the Pacific
coast and in the Midwest. Nine States
account for more than half of all the
locker plants Washington with $50
plants, Oregon with 800, and Califor-
mia with 299 form one belt. Six in a
group are: Iowa with 600fii Minneso-
ia, Az; Wisconsin 473; Illinois 81;
Kansas, 315; and Nebraska, 294; or
a total of $3.50 for the six states.
X. F. Warner, of the Department,
points out tkat early development of
this method of storing food was aid
ed by the existence of commercial
fruit freezing plants in the North
west and of many creameries and
cheese plants in the minnesota
Wisconsin area. Continued growth ap
pears to be due, he says, to the needs
for this service by owners of family
size farms who are growing much of
their own foods at home.
Plants that had refrigerating equip
ment were centers of locker expan-
sion while new equipment was
scarce. Witk the end of the war cas-
ing the equipment situation, further
expansion of locker service is expect
ed in many states that now have only
few locker plants.

FAT SALVAGE

By continuing their magnificent
job of fat salvage, housewives can
help return to store shelves plentiful
supplies of soap and hundreds of
other things they've been waiting
for Fats and oils are just as impor-
tant to the production of peacetime
goods as they were for munitions
and supplies of industrial fats are far
short of demands and needs. That is
why the government has increased
from two to four points the bonus
for used fats. Domestic production,
which has never been able to COM
pensate fully for the loss of imports
from the Pacific, is down this year
and it will take many months to
bring imports back to peacetime
levels. Meanwhile, there is tremen-
dous demand for fats and oils. They
are urgently needed in the manufac-
ture of soap and nearly all other con-
sumner goods-nylons, refrigerators
automobiles, paints. American wo-
men can speed the return of these
things by saving used fats and turn
ing them in as soon as they can no
longer be reused for cooking.

NEW 1945-1946 AUTOMOBILES
ARE SUBJECT TO RATIONING

New 1945-46 automobiles continue
to be subject to rationing restrictions
William B. Connolly, OPA Maryland
State Rationing Executive, said, fol-
lowing reports that new cars were
ration-free.
Among some few members of the
automobile trade there is an idea
prevalent that the new 1945-46 cars
are not controlled by OPA rationing
regulations" said Mr.. Connolly.
This is entirely incorrect. Ration
Order 2B is still in effect. Our Boards
however, have not been accepting ap-
plications because there has been no
ALLEGATION of quota
THE regulation provides for the
rationing of every passenger automo-
bile imported or manufactured ON or
after July 1, 1945, which has not
been registered for use. The amend
ment to the regulations effective last
July removed new 1912 cars from
rationing."

Small Private Planes to
Cost S Cents a Mile TO Run

Aircraft engineers state that
American plane manufacturers are
equipped to produce safe, easy-han-
ding and economical personal
planes, and that large cross-sec-
ton of the American public desires
to buy and to use them. However,
they caution that both the extent Of
private flying and the potential mar
ket for private planes will be de-
pendent upon such unknowns as the
availability of airports, relative ease
with which flying licenses can be OBJ
tanned, and public experience with
planes and operating costs.
Primary function of the airplane,
reduction of distance in terms of
time, was said by John Friedlander
admirably to serve postwar psychol-
ogy. With life assuming an accel-
Grated tempo, chief desire will be to
travel greater distances in less time,
he said. He suggested the probable
ity of operating personal planes at
approximately five cents per mile,
and declared that savings of time
through travel by private planes will
be so great that operating costs be-
come relatively Insignificant. He
predicted that postwar private
planes will make 1,00O-mile trips
easy, cheap, and commonplace.

Most Philippine Sugar
Grown on Negroes Island

Negros island, recently won from
the Japs, normally grew more than
three-fourths of the annual Philip
pine sugar crop of one million tons.
About half the size of Massachu-
sets, Negros has been handicapped
for lack of good harbor for ocean
going ships, and most of it's sugar
was shipped from Iloilo on the
neighboring island of Panay to the
northwest. For this reason the
Spaniards had not developed the is
land until the past century, when
sugar cane growing began.
Sugar made the city of Bacolod,
neatly laid out with paved streets
and modern buildings that house the
offices of the sugar companies. Be
fore the war this west-coast city
had population of about $1,000,
sixth largest in the Philippines.
Stately mansions lining the streets
gave the impression of prosperous
American city.

Opposes Special Session

To Civic Leaders In Maryland:
1t would be pleasant if this Bulle-
tin could merely announce the new
cut in State real estate tax and State
income tax and ask expressions Of ap-
probation to Governor O'Conor for
instituting the reduction. But with
each day it seems new problem ap-
pears, requiring new action. Truly
the price of governmental economy,
us we'll as of liberty, is constant Wig
lance.
You may have noted in press re-
ports that the Mayor of Baltimore is
;sking Governor O'Conor to call q
special Session of the Legislature to
authorize imposing new taxes on the
people of Baltimore
This proposal affects taxpayers all
over the State. The Baltimore Tax
payers Association opposes it. If the
additional taxes were to be used to
educe the taxes on real property, the
Baltimore citizens might not object.
But the new taxes are to be levied,
in addition to all taxes now collected.
At first glance this matter seems
purely a Baltimore problem, which,
rs far as the tax goes, it is. But the
matter of special Session is of
grave importance to each county
In addition to TIE expense of such
Il Session which all must bear, there
is the serious possibility of hasty leg
islation passed without sufficient
time for the average citizen to learn
anything about it. Such legislation
may be in the form of further need
less social expenditures.
The Governor has just announced
a reduction in the real estate and
State Income Tax. There is probably
still some surplus remaining in the
State Treasury. If special Session
is called, we may expect all sorts of
pressure to spend this surplus on re-
lief; paying boys to go to school,
more postwar construction of the
like.
Therefore, | urge you to give care
full consideration to this matter, and
if you see it as / do, won't you write
the Governor and ask him to refuse
to call special Session for matter
that is purely local to one City?

President, Maryland

HERE is A BIG ISSUE

Washington, ID. c., October 29 r.
In presenting the case for universal
military training, the President has
very clearly STAGED the question in
all of it's phases. Mr.. Truman made
no effort to get the Congress togeth-
er, but he went up to Capitol Hill,
and came out fatty for the military
system that General Marshall had
recommended.
Under our American system tie
Army and Navy has maintained lev
els of soldiers and sailors necessary
for shore patrol, policing, etc. Even
after World War l, the United States
took the position that it did not need
large Army or Navy Only a few
years ago the country was agitated
by discussions over defense and ar
mament" VS.. ''peacetime policies"
Now the President argues very
eonvincingly that "the basic reason
for universal military training is a
very simple one-to guarantee the
safety and freedom of the United
States against any potential agrees
sor." He has made it plain that he
does not propose anything that may
be called transcription" He says
'conscription" is compulsory service
in the Army or Navy in time of peace
or war He recommends to Congress
the passage of legislation setting UP
training system, not particularly
in drill but mainly in the use of all
instruments and weapons of modern
warfare. According to the President
this one year of military training for
all men between Is and 20 would be
devoted to providing in an emergen-
cy ''the only kind Of strength an
agressor can military
power" He argued, more forciDly
and slearly than he has for any cause
since he came in office, that the need
exists for preparedness against any
future attack upon our country, and
he told Congress that that need
must be met today"
1t is only a few years ago that
1870 to 500 of the entire popula-
ton of the United States was de-
handing that our country be kept
out of foreign wars, and lot of
people who honestly argued to main
tain that position are still branded
as 'pacifsts
But the World changed it's opinion
overnight, and the Communist gov
eminent of Russia became our mill
tary ally, while Japan, whom we had
furnished scrap iron, became our
deadly enemy.

SOYBEAN is THE GLAMOUR
CROP

Until rather recently the soybean
was stranger to our agricultural
economy, Secretary of Agriculture
Anderson commented recently. "Now
however, it has become the glamour
crop of agriculture. Not only does
soybean oil comprise about 13 per
cent of our total production of fats
and oils-including butter and lard
but soybean meal has been the lar
gest single protein concentrate for
hogs, beef and dairy cattle and poul-
try. 1t was responsible in large de-
gree for the great wartime increase
in production of meat, eggs, and
milk.
Because increases in soybean
acreage to meet wartime needs were
so great, producers will face the
problem of adjusting their greatly
expanded production to a peace time
level. But increased uses of many
scybean products have become so
firmly established that a postwar
peacetime level of production will
not be the same thing as the pre-war
peacetime level of production"

UNTAPPED AGRICULTURAL
FRONTIERS

"The untapped agricultural from
tier is not so much in untitled acres
of land but in low-cost production
and more efficient output as levers to
a higher standard of living" SO
states recent magazine article and
the statement rings true.
Despite the undeniable fact that
agriculture is our basic industry, be-
cause most of our raw materials and
all of our food comes from the land,
the great majority of farmers are us
ing out-moded methods and tools
They live and labor in the machine
age, but are not part of it. Mechani-
cation will open up untapped from
tiers to them. This is one OF the great
Developments sure to come il the
postwar world.
Thousands OF young men are re-
turning to the farms froln service
end war work trainaI and experience
ed in the use OF Modern tools and
machinery. They bring with them q
knowledge OF the new techniques,
and Impotence with the old ways
In the decade just ahead they can
be counted on to assist materially in
the movement, already we'll started
to bring agriculture into the Tween
tieth Century.

JUSTICE INEVITABLY ASSERTS
ITSELF

Louis Bromfield, well known auth
or and playwright, long identified
with liberal viewpoints, and a
friend of organized labor, says:
"The clash between the minority
interest of organized labor and the
rest of the nation becomes more evil
dent.
to wait but to get what it can quick
ly at the expense of the rest of the
nation. -.
There are countless thousands
of honest rank and file workers dis
gusted with the whole spectacle and
oppressed by heavy dues and assess
ments, who would gladly be out OF
the whole demoralizing mess.
added to all this is the almost I'M
tenable position of many honest and
devoted labor leaders who find them
selves forced to compromise, to con-
done and even to accept doubtful &C
ton in order to keep in power. They
are forced to play politics within the
union in order to, reelected to Office.
'The issue is one of morality, de-
cency of contract, moral obligations
to. democracy and government.
There is grim and immutable
justice in the affairs of men which
inevitably asserts itself. The issue is
ceasing to be one between organized
labor and management. 1t is becom-
ing an issue between organized labor
and the rest of the American people.
No minority, however well organized,
has ever succeeded for long in i'm
posing its will on the American peo-
ple."

This remarkable chain of "Tem-
Piles of Baby Smiles as they are
affectionately termed, have since
their inception in 1922 been stated
with the finest ortEepedic surgeons
available and with nurses especially
trained in this service of love.
To date more than 100000 MAIN
ed CHILDREN, all from America S poor
est homes and admitted regardless of
race, creed, or color, have been eth

year alone 20,888 children were
treated at Shrine clinics apart from
the bed patients and in a single year
the hospitals provided 1916 braces;
made 1000 x-rays; received 5000
cases; gave nearly $4,000 physical
therapy treatments; performed 1880
operations on 1900 patients; dis

No Magic Wage Formula

There was no magic formula asso-
ciated with the suggestion of c. e.
Wilson, president of General Motors,
the other day in Detroit when he told
gathering of newspaper writer's and
commentators his idea of how this
nation could best get along in the
immediate postwar years.
Mr.. Wilson merely observed that
everyone concerned will gain in ratio
to the amount of work he is prepared
to do; tkat return to the 45-hour
basic week coupled with moderate
wage increase might be a solution,
and that he didn't see how industry
could attain production to meet the
desired wage increases without get
ting the aid that would come from
additional labor efforts.
