THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 2l
HEART AND HOME

HEART AND HOME The wartime trend toward laxity in morals will soon vanish. A high CT standard of conduct between the sexes is inevitable as return ing servicemen and women give expression to the ideals they have nurtured during the period of sep aration from their families.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS
 An early decline in the amount of money now in circulation in this country (about 29 billion) IS fore seen. Many commercial mergers are indicated.
 NATIONAL TSSGES
 Threats of Congressional investi- gations may result in concessions of advantage to consumers, partio- ularly where public utilities arc concerned. The average age of those holding elective offices is ex- pected Q drop sharply within the next year.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
 A new form of Hitlerism will pre- sent problems to the occupation forces in Germany unless firm steps are taken to control unrepentant elements in that country.
 Persons born on this date are promised by the stars A substan- tial gain in material possessions be- fore the years end.
 Children born on this day will be sensitive and easily hurt. They will have good minds and strong bodies.

Legion Seniority
S+dnd Rdpped

CHICAGO, Dec. 18 (LPA)-
The American Legion's action
in calling on Congress to enact
"super-seniority" legislation and
in demanding other legislation
to restrict all quota immigra-
ton was denounced last week
by a group of the Legion's own
members organized in the Ma
tional Conference of Union La
Dor Legionnaires.
These "are not just harmless
resolutions adopted at a conven-
ton and then forgotten, said
the NCULL's monthly Newslet-
ter. "They are authority to the
Legion's full-time lobbyists in
Washington to buttonhole a rep
resentative or senator and say
$500, 900 veterans want it this
Way'w The NCULL then in
quired:
Did the 100000 members of
organized labor who are Le-
gionnaires know that legislation
was demanded to reinstate 'su-
perseniority?' Did the 1000, 900
veterans of World War II who
are Legionnaires know that leg
islation or presidential action
was demanded to bar all quota
immigration, incl u dir the
homeless victims of concentra-
ton camps that these same vet

Pay Hikes. Not Bonuses

FORT WORTH, Tex. (LPA)
"A concerted drive by the ma
tons oil industry to substitute
bonuses for bona fide wage
raises will be resisted to the
hilt by the Oil Workers Inter-
national Union-CIO, President
o. A. Knight said last week.
"The 18c-an-hour increases ne
gotiated with Sinclair represents
the rock-bottom,' said Interna-
tional Vice-president A. r.
Kinstley. "OWIU will not set
tie for a fraction of a cent less

gaining for the full 25c increase.
The oil workers are entitled to

Wage Increase
Continued from Page One

Employer estimates were that
the 231zc pay hike plus the
equalization and old-age pension
funds would jump the total in
crease to well over 30-cents-an

fund the highest rate paid by
any section of the industry for
any Job classification would be-
come the standard rate.
Increases Are Denied
"The wage demands which
we are making" said Reuther,
"do not require any increase in
prices. It was not true In 1946
and it will not be true in 1947
that higher wages must be fol-

times as high as the average of
the years 1869.
For manufacturing corpora
tions alone, on an after taxes
basis, the picture is very sim
liar. At the end of 1946, profits
are approaching an annual rate
of SO billion. They are about
45% above the best war year,

Could Absorb Increases
4-Profit returns show that
the 1946 wage increases could
have been absorbed without
raising the general level of
prices. The same holds true to-
day. Manufacturing corpora

rate of return on net worth be-

creases, manufacturing corpora
tions would still earn about
twice the average $25 billion
profits earned in 1936-39 and
almost as much as they earned
at the war peak"
5-"The basic facts are clear.
An increase of about 108o in
hourly earnings in manufactures
is required at the end of 1946
to bring real hourly earnings
back to the January 1945 level;
an increase of perhaps 23% is
required to bring real weekly
earnings back to the January
1945 level.
An increase of about 17% is
required to meet the increase in
the cost of living since the
enunciation of the February
1946 government wage policy.
In manufacturing industries
alone, the end of 1946 level of
corporate profits after taxes
will support a 21go increase in
the earnings of production
workers, without any further
increase in productivity, with
out any further expansion in
volume.
Prepared without CIO
Prepared without any guida-
nee or assistance from the ma
tional CIO, according to Presi-
dent Philip Murray, the study
concluded with a strong justifi-
cation for a second round of
wage increases.
The report also called for
drastic alteration of tax and As-
cal policies, curbs on monopolies
and trade restraints, a long
overdue expansion of the social
security system "for the mainte-
nance of effective demand where
the needs are greatest" higher
minimum wage levels, and an
"unquivocal restatement of pub

SABBATH Will Renew Campaign
In Congress for Federal Lottery
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
Rep. SABBATH, Democrat, of Illi-
nois, brushed off his old nobody
can-lose" lottery plan yesterday,
added a dash of War bond and anti
imitation appeal, and decided to try
to push it through Congress.
The 79-year-old dean of tn e
House and chairman of its rules
committee has been trying to get
national lottery law enacted for
q long time. He thinks the time
is ripe right now.
People have lot of money they
can't spend it on many of the things
they want because they aren't avail
able, and if we can siphon some of
it off into the Treasury in an honest
gambling proposition, nobody will
suffer" ne said.
And the danger of imitation might
be lessened, he added, by draining
away a lot of loose money.
Instead of giving away cash prizes
as he had proposed before, Mr.
SABBATH now wants the lottery win
ners to be paid of in War Bonds,
He's working on bill which would
sgive the winner of the first prize
, in monthly or bi-monthly lottery
drawing 100000 in United States
War Bonds. Second prize would be
$4,000, third $4,000, fourth 5000,
and then there would be lot of
smaller awards.
