Recreation Council could take the
responsibility for organizing the

Practical Planners Plot
Nation S Economic Future
Map Expansion of Foreign Trade as Help in
Meeting Goal of 100000 Jobs
In Postwar Period.
By BAUKHAGE
Netvs Analyst and Commentator

Now, in order to understand why
such an unorthodox program finds
such ready acceptance in hard-bit-
ten world fed up with utopian plan
ming, let me take you back to the
genesis of the organization from
which this plan emerged.
We find ourselves in the COM
Portable but somewhat gloomy
quarters of the old City club in New
York where met a group of men,
most of them engineers, some econo-
mists, others interested as members
of that club, who had become tired
Of the type Of research" which was
largely a collection of ancient his
tory and which looked backward in
stead of forward.
These men saw the weakness in
the kind Of report frequently
asked for and submitted to great
corporations and other institutions
by high-paid and well-inforned ex-
perts, but written entirely by men
who had no responsibility for the
actual carrying out of the programs,
men who had no power whatever to
make the decisions necessary to
meet the actual conditions with
which they were faced.
At about the same time, a SINH
lar group was meeting in England.
It had moved little farther ahead,
perhaps because its members had
come to the point where they felt
that efficient planning, such as sue
cessful business institutions carried
through, might be applied to public
affairs as well. They called them
selves the ''P E P" political and
economic planning). This group was
made up Of British government off,
Gals, people from the "City" Gon-
don's Wall street,, members of in
dustry, finance, the Bank of Eng
land (Which, you recall, is a pri-
vate institution and others.
BY virtue of fortunate inter-
national marriage the ideas of the
American and British groups
mingled. And so, the American
group came to the conclusion: first,

1t is easier to wash large
amount of slightly soiled clothes
than a few very dirty ones.
When washing walls, start at
the bottom, instead of at the top;
then if you spill any of the
cleaning fluid on the wall it will
not spot, as otherwise.
Use a large oiled silk bowl cover
for an emergency shower cap.
When shaking a small throw
rug, hold by the sides. If held by
the ends, the weight of the
rug pulls the threads apart.
Coffee grounds make a good
sweeping compound for use in the
basement.
Glue a bright piece of 1ino1eum
over the old worn top of a card
table.
Clean your brick hearth by first
scrubbing with stiff brush and
hot soapy water. Rinse clean and
wipe dry. Let stand a day and
then coat with boiled linseed oil.

that planning must be done by for
ward-looking, rather than. histori-
cally-minded groups, including per-
sons who actually had to make the
decisions to carry out the plans.
Second, that since Gas the previous
years had shown even the we'll
planned industrial and governmental
efforts fall when the "unplanned' eff
forts go down as they did in the
depression, it might be wise to car
ry the planning into the national
field.
BY 1884 the National Planning as
ISOLATION had been organized, had
received the backing of a number Of
foundations, individual contributions
and memberships and was able to
issue its first report in December of
that year setting forth its principles.
Other reports followed. &
Birth of a
Big Idea
Just when the $50 million jobs"
idea was born, I do not know. Ger
tainly it was before anyone had hit
upon that particular figure which,
indeed, must be considered rather
as a symbol than an exact estimate
of tomorrow's needs. But there was
one statement made at a meeting
in 1910 which seems to me to have
been the inspiration for the present
report.
It was Donald Nelson who spoke
and the gist Of what he said was
this:
''In order to get full production
for the war effort we must conquer
certain future fears. Labor must
be cured of the fear that this ire.
mendous production effort will bring
a reaction and that war workers will
be working themselves out Of job
later. Capital must be cured Of the
fear that 1t will bring imitation and
depression which mean that they are
working themselves out of their in
vestments and profit"
Whether this caused the board of
trustees of the NPA to call upon
its committee on international policy
to set their heads to writing pre-
scription for full employment, I do
not know. But 1t might seem to have
caused constructive thinking in that
direction.
These are some OF the men in
volved:
William Bait, one of Americas
leading industrialists and member
of the War Production board, heads
the NPA's board Of trustees. The
chairman Of the committee of the
NPA which prepared the report is
Stacy May, economic advisor to the
McGraw-Hill publishing company.
There are 81 others who compose
the committee which drew up the re-
port. They are representative men,
bers Of industry, labor, agriculture,
finance, public affairs, professional
life.

Must Boost Imports,
Foreign, Indictments

A 10 billion dollar trade budget
calling for increased imports and in
creased foreign investments. That
sounds pretty unorthodox to start
with. There would be tariff reduc-
tions to increase the imports on the
theory that only thus will foreign
countries be able to get the money
to buy our goods.
There would be steps taken to
make foreign capital investments
secure in order to build them up.
There would be an international
bank for reconstruction and de-
velopment; there would be longtime
foreign trade agreements coordi-
mated with longtime investment
programs.

That phrase mas Deen pdtteo
about hopefully, contemptuously,
with the raised eyebrow of cynical
doubt, with the set jaw Of desperate
determination.
People may believe 1t is an ideal
dream or feel that 1t is quite prac-
ticable but the majority Of experts
will tell you unless it is achieved we
face the old cycle: imitation, depres-
sion, war and pestilence.
But the phrase go million jobs"
has acquired a new meaning in the
last few weeks. Why? Because Of
plan that has been presented to
achieve this goal. The men who have
worked it out, and the things that
have brought them together and
welded their ideas into an effective
implement, have caused some Of the
hard-headed experts, who are accus-
toned to weigh such ideas on the
scales Of experience and either toss
them into the scrap heap or hold
them up as worthy of use, to call
this plan good.
The plan is contained in little
red-bound booklet issued as Pam
phlets Nos. 1888 OF the National
Planning association and called
Americas New Opportunities in
World Trade" And let me hasten
to say right here that this organiza-
ton is not to be confused with an
other New Deal group of similar
name which congress in it's wis
dom, or otherwise, has weighed in
the balance and found wanting.
The National Planning association
about which I am writing is non
governmental, non-partisan associ-
alton of businessmen and scholars,
labor leaders, farmers, bankers and
manufa cturers, all, insofar as this
task is concerned, at once selfless
workers in the vineyard Of the pub
lie good, and husbandmen who
realize their neighbours prosperity is
likewise their own.
There are three reasons why the
plan for creating jobs, worked out
by this organization, has made an
impression on Washington and else
where:
First, it has been examined and
praised by certain media Of public
thought which can hardly be de-
scribed as champions Of the imprac-
teal, the utopian or the unAmerican
the New York Times, the New
York Herald Tribune, and Business
Week, to mention only three.
Second, because of the men who
authored or sponsored tall lead
ers In their respective fields of
American enterprise.
Third. because Of the way the
organization which brought these
men together came into being.
Now let me give you the gist of
the plan.

Coscia about his re-enactment of the staying to County Detective Thomas F. Laden, and Chief 1n- spector Joseph Bendler on Septem- Der 29, the day after the staying.
 Coscia stated he did not remem- Der pointing out to Laden the point at which Cyr stood when the fatal shot was fired. He said he could not remember demonstrating to Laden how he held the gun at the time the shot was fired, now showing the ex- tent to which the barrel of the gun was in the kitchen when the blast ocurred
 The accused also stated he did not remember an examination by physician while ne was held at the police cell.
 Asked by the prosecutor from which shoulder he shoots when he hunts, he replied it was from the right. Fitzgerald then asked Coscia to step down from the witness stand and he measured Coscia from the right arm-pit to the ground, and announced the length was 50 inches. With that announcement the state concluded the cross examination.
 Mascolo, on redirect examination asked Coscia about a pre-existing crack in the Cyr kitchen door, and Coscia stepped down from the wit ness stand again to illustrate where the crack had been located.
 Would you describe the condition of your mind after the kitchen door was closed in your face," the defense attorney then asked.
 Coscia replied, The state of my condition was - full of fright. I was agitated, which means mad of tended, and I had lost control of myself" The answer was given by Italian Interpreter Italo Delfno, who continued to serve as interpre- ter during Mascolo's questioning
 Had you lost control of your self before you hit the gun against the door?" Mascolo asked.
 But certainly did not have con- trol,' the witness responded.
 A Comedy, A Fight
 Coscia then stated his intention was to reason with Cyr, to stop these comedies" He explained that comedies means fights, disputes, or quarrels.
 Asked about pain, which he claim ed yesterday he was suffering, Cos cia began to state, The more pain of this disaster is that I am ashamed :" The court ruled out the answer. Coscia then disclosed that his pain was not of a physical nature.
 The witness testified that he had talked to his counsel in a general way about the contents of the cor oner's transcript, but did not dis cuss the specific statements in the document.
 Asked how long his condition of fright and his loss of Self-control lasted after the staying, he replied, Tt lasted very very much time" He later testified he did not begin to get rested until several days after he was moved to the New Haven coun- ty jail.
 At one point Coscia testified that he had not slept for two continuous days last week, and that last F'ri- day a pschiatrist. who was in the courtroom, had given him a pre- scription for sleeping pills. On re-cross-examination F1tz-

Absentee Ballots Being Distributed to Various
 Communities of State

Town committee member of both local parties are making prelimin- ary preparations for coming cau- cuses and primaries. although no definite dates have been determin- ed, as yet.
 Although 75,0O0 absentee ballots are being forwarded to all cities and towns by the state secretary none of these have yet been received in Waterbury, it was stated today by Mrs. Mary c. Kilmartin, town clerk.
 This year, Connecticut's absentee civilian voters will be eligible for vote, for the first time in the states history. The legislature this year passed a bill permitting out-of- state Connecticut voters to ballot Heretofore only state residents within the state proper could use the absentee form for voting in their home town. Just how much this will increase the voting this year cannot be determined at this time.
 Waterbury's voters will go to the polls on Nov 9th. It seems unqueS- tionable at this time that Mayor Monagan will again be the Demo- cratic candidate. No opponent has yet been chosen by the Republican although former common pleas court judge, Harry s. Beardsley is being given strong support by COP leaders.

nto call any further witnesses. Elev- en more witnesses had been sched- uled to testify.
 Defense counsel also said that as far as they were concerned, the case was clear and they would not ques- tion other witnesses. Okulicki was not represented by counsel, but con- ducted his own defense.
 One of the final witnesses yes terday, Evgeni Charnowski, presi- dent of the Polish Democratic union, cleared Stanislaw Mikola- jczyk, former premier of the Polish exile government in London, of con- nection with the Polish home armys alleged attacks on the Red Army.
 Chernowsky testified that Oku- licki had told him that Mikolajczyk must be kept in ignorance of the existence of an underground organ ization because Mikolajczyk might come to an agreement with the rival Polish provisional government in Warsaw.
 The testimony came while Miko- lajczyk in fact was conferring with representatives of the Warsaw gov ernment and other Polish leaders in
