The Big Broadcast

Ever since h was announced that the atomic bomb test at kni going to he broadcast we've been wondering who would sponsor it. Somebody certainly ought to- Ihere M of course no radio precedent for this unprecedented event except that for every public spectacle that goes on the air from the World Series the Metropolitan Opera the networks usually find somebody who is happy to lay wad of fancy money tie line for the privilege of inserting A commercial plug before. during, and after.
 So why not Operation Crossroads The actual program will be of short duration but its CrOssey and Hooper rat ngs should be terrific The government probably could sell the broadcast rights for enough to for half destroyer easproved there any use for destroyers after the broadcast is
 For there an element of surprise in Operation Cross roads which, for the prospective sponsor should make tne broadcast rights dOubly attractive. The dramatic no less than the atomic, impact promises to be tremendous
 No one for example. knows whether the mcrQphone nearest the explosion will De able to bring the Dg IOwO, will be able to Outun atomic dsntegration to the waiting instrument.
 No one knows whether the bomb will blow that ancient and honorable institution the Navy right off the pages of history or whether it will alter the conception of naval power and it's to the point of being ana there are other important mponderabe possibilities which ought to make the broadcast more exciting than Orson Weless Martian invasion
 But who will sponsor itcgarets. razor blades chewing Gum or the United Nations? And how will the presentation be handed That last important for such event sure ly deserves proper bldup Perhaps good man Tor the iob would he Norman Corwin, who has developed quite reputation for presenting history dramatic setting But. by and large. think that the familiar soapopera tech nique will do very nicely.
 For the atomic bomb provides the plot for the soap opera of civilization the greatest cffhanger in history So the could follow the usual pattern The last episode in the drama could be recalled The scene Tor to days chapter could be sketched n And hen the provoc tive quesiOns Will there be target fleet after it's over Will there be earthquake tidal wave? Win Man get himself into more trouble by playing with this toy again. or will it help him find way out of his self-made difficulties? Be not to miss the next instamen

 tc pacify tempers, marshall the scattered tang1nts of the Democratic Party and pull the Aaminisira- tion,s program out of impossible paFsy.
 Those who watched Barkley in the old days under Roosevelt agree that he has grown in stature Abundant leadership came from the White House tnen-sometimos. the Senate felt, too much leader ship. Barey in those days was led rather than the leader.
 Today, with less leadership in the White House the Senator from Kentucky has stepped forward to pick up a large share of the burden Of the dead chieftain with whom he sometimes 50 vigorously differed
 There vas a day when Alben Barkley hoped he might be appointed to the Supreme Court. As Tar as he is concerned. that day is past. Barkley went down the line for the Supreme Court appointment of his friend, Jimmy Byrnes, some years ago. and since then has put aside al thought that the Judicial lightning might strike in his direction He is as phil osophical about this as he Is about waiting for taxi.

Where the Profits Go

The favorite pastme of of tOdays sef-styed b' erals is to tear the hide off corporation pros Where a these profits go that these liberals enjoy castgatng? Consider of the leading corporations oil company This company earned net profit of nearly $9OOOOOO m l945-a lot of money But the company points out this profit like is divided among lot of people The company is owned by about 35OOO individual Amerl- cans enough to make city the size of TOrrngton Con- nectcut.
 They live in many sections of the country, They own an average of l37 shares of stock apiece No holds more than n percent of the total shares outstanding The divided these 35OO0 people averages about S250 per person However this company consisting of l54 million dollars worth of oil wells reneres service stations ets aside $aO0O00O for the business Dividends paid out-mOney that actually went to the owners-averaged just $i37.A9 per sockholder-Sll46 per month wages paid out averaged S3 2a3 empOye $24 per month
 No matter how the critics of profit paint the picture they cannot conceal the fact that American industry does not represent the investment of few milOnares but the combined savings of thousands of citizens Neither can they conceal the fact that without some such method Of O. nancng heavy industry American mass production the envy of the entire world could have been accom- plished

 For every adult in America who is more or less overweight. and par ticularly for those past 90. the plea tO save wheat by eating just one less slice of bread. one less roll or one less piece of toast or cake or cookie every day. is in effect an excellent health suggestion for all overnOurished American adults to follow

White four is the chiei starchy item in the refined carbohy- drate list; cane and beet sugar is the chief sugary item in the list. From these many Americans. par- tilcularly young people, get almost half Of their daily calories.
