The Fruit of Concerted Effort

The customary Thanksgiving editorial is not an easy assignment this year. One put down the usual phrases about nation lifting up its thankful heart with sense of journalistic nsccuracy. Thankfuness m plies certain of contentment and humbeness And who truthfu say that those words apt descrp tion of our national feeling today?
 The emotions with which this country greeted Thanks giving year ago than S65 days remote. The war was won, and great number of the who had fought it were reunited with their families There shortages then and beginning of the domestic troubles that have plagued since But there must have been deep gratitude in many hearts which is sadly absent
 This Thanksgiving Day finds a nation in which dis content and bitter complaint have risen to point where is useless deny them It finds with abundant food and material comforts than graced homes year ago. But the increased abundance and the added comfort almost accidental outcome of wrangng and bun ging which a distressing amount of Americas time and attention.
 For perverse it takes war, that most brutay stupid of human activities to call forth the highest moral qualities of people. That sobering fact clearly evidenced than in the just past Amer united to produce and fight orgetful of self and of differences From battlefield and ship from factory and farm came abundant proof of the kndness and brother hood of which the American people are capable.
 Today, unhappy those same people are doing much to dShOnor the victory which their united good will achieved Sehness curbed for long by nober qualities has burst its bonds and taken command The lines of economic and fight which none can win and which, unless halted only succeed in delaying and perhaps destroying the common good which all in their right minds know must achieve
 Today might all do well to think seriously about the origin and tradition of this holiday The first Thanksgiving Day celebrated by group of men and women acutey of the fact that God helps those who help themselves The feast that day the fruit of concerted effort with which the feastes would have pershed And the feast pause, not truce. The next day those men and resumed their concerted effort for the peril still remained.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 27-JOhn L. Lewis strike against his government has dramatized vividy once again-f any demonstration were needed-the deli cate interrelaon and terdependence of every part of our complex modern industrial mechanism.
 But serious as are the effects in our own country what he has done by tying up the basic industry he dominates reaches far beyond our borders They ra- fly to disturb the economy of Europe and our political stakes there, which are so high just now.
 Affected are shipments of coal and food which have been much good will to give heart and en- everywhere on the Continent against the tide of totatarianism.
 But, beyond this day-by-day assistance to reha- bation in Europe the impression of instability and confusion here can have a most harmful effect. To be influential with the desperate peoples of Europe we must prove that our democratic institutions are strong and in the first instance, serve our own people.
 These are obvious observations that have been emphasized repeatedly of late. They not be stressed too much.
 They show again the actualty of the one world of which talk the dependence of every part upon every other part and demonstrate again how vital it is that the United Nations erect world organ ization that will everywhere the intricae in dustrial system Our influence in that endeavor will be measured constantly by ability to cooperate helpfully. That, in turn, depends upo nour own strength and stability.
 This brings us back to the disruption of our whole economy by powerful individual solution for the conflicts in basic industries That cannot be long delayed. It will require. too bodness of approach and willingness to adopt new concep- tions

WASHINGTON, Nov. 27-(NEA)-It may be near the end of the season for the Truman team but for the remaining games on the schedule. keep an eye on the new right-end Secretary of Commerce w. Ayere Hartman. Take note it's right end he's play ing, though he replaced left-end Henry Wallace when that great open-fied runner got kicked off the squad for breaking training.
 Hartman is a shy man. in spite of his height. his reach and hs weight as big businessman Wallace was shy, too. but in different way. While Wallace could be counted on to make the headlines once week with some spectacular play, Hartman avoids publicity Consequently the Washington sports writers have not been giving him the attention he deserves
 Since Hartman appeared in tEe frst-string line- up early in October, however he has quietly been making his weight felt. Reports leaking from the secret workouts and skull-practce sessions of the Cabinet squad give Hartman credit for helping plan several of the trick plays which have been uncorked in recent scrimmages.
 The National Association of Manufacturers is giving a lot of advance promotion to Harriman's scheduled pep talk opening the oist annual con gress of American Business at New York. Dec. 1. Say the NAM posters for this big game This Is your opportunity to find out which way the Depart ment of Commerce is going to face from here on"
 This recalls what happened on the same field when Henry Wallace played against the NAM year ago. The night before. Wallace had starred at 6 wild labor mass meeting in Madison Square Gar den The rafters rang with shouts of "Wallace for President" The next morning, Wallace appeared be- fore cold and critical NAM convention which looked down it's long noses and sat on it's hands.
 Wallace mumbled his prepared speech and, to polite but decidedly unenthusiastic applause. got out of there fast he could It was an awful perform was nothing to dash the hones et the NAM. They
 '-t didn't like Wallace f~s -s them. "

Wanted: A Solomon!
by ThOns1S Stokes

Because of the provocation in John Lewis. the temptation is easy go too far The resentment that has boiled up has its natural outlet in the newly elected Congress in which labor is going to have fewer friends. Restraint and caution are needed to check punitive legislative raid against all labor and to stop this from going still further. Some would shuffle off or restrict the various devices have people, including labor, far share of the benefits of our industrial productive system.
 John Lewis has given encouragement to the en- eies of labor He has done disservice to all labor by his defiance of his Government and, by his methods has becouded the natural public sympathy for the miners.
 Labor has been weakened thereby It has been leadership of both AFL and CIO To the breaking of a contract with the Government and a strike against the Government. The people. through Con- gres recognized the right of labor to protect itself by organizing itsel. Labor thereby assumed certain responsibilities to itself and to the people It has weakened its position with the public
 Labor's fear of injunctions Is understandable and valid. Understandable, too. Is it's making of common cause. That solidarity is what has achieved for it the strength, it's side. to meet organized strength on the other
 But there seems a distinction in injunctive pro- ceedings sought in the past by industry from friendly judges that brought the Norrts-LaGuardia Anti Injunction Act, and injunction sought by the Gov ernment to prevent the breaking of contract with the Government The Government on behalf of the them in such instances where their health and their lives and the part their nation must play in the world are all involved in disruption of our whole economy.

RESCUE ON GAULI GLACIER
(New York sun)

When an American Army airplane crasbed on the Gauli Glacier the great concern of the Swiss was not now it came to be there but what was to be done about it's passengers. They planned and executed rescue which stands out in a region noted for such things. Two daring pilots in nine hazardous trips picked up the marooned persons from a point 2,000 feet below their wrecked craft to which they had been brought by the alpinists who first reached them. Except fer comparatively minor injuries to three of their number, the rescued travellers were little the worse for the ordeal through which they had passed. However, strom which hit the sec- ton shortly after their rescue em- phasized the narrowness of their escape. Brigadier- r-General Ralph Tate, whose son piloted the p lane and whose wife was among its passengers, gives full credit to the Swiss government and its army. He described it as the most magnifi- cent cooperation I have ever heard of" adding, The Swiss ran this rescue and they ran it right" For their courage and skill; for their disposition to act first and ask ques- tions, if necessary. afterward. all Americans, as well as the direct beneficiaries of their action, owe thanks to the Swiss rescuers and those who directed their efforts.

Right End Hartman

the way he said it that left his audience cold.
 Rereading the speech today. one uncovers these key sentences:
 'The Department of Commerce Is designed to provide all possible help for business. We want sustained high level of investment. production. employment and profits. Businessmen must set prices so they make money at two-thirds of ca pacity operations. Our free enterprise system must be preserved What We need is a genuine increase in mass purchasing power We cant spend our way into good business ay dipping into the Federal Treasury. We want prosperity-a sls- tained solid prosperity subject to shattering ups and downs We have got to help the rest of the the necessity of raising the American standard of living"
 The above was Henry Wallace speaking not w. AveFeI Hartman. It so happens, however. that the other day Hartman made speech before the New England Council in Boston. It was in the nature of warm-up for Harriman's coming speech to the NAM
 Just for the fun of it. note what Hartman said. comparing each sentence with what Wallace said
 'The Department of commercs is largely serv- ice agency to further the economic welfare of the country by fostering commerce and industry. . Our objective is to maintain high level of employ ment {. It is now the responsibility of business men to assist in preventing nfationaFy price m- creases. {. Personal freedom cannot be usec as cloak for the protection of special privilege or vested interests. More people must be able to buy more things. {. Capital expenditures by Government should be held to the minimum. Of first im- portance in maintaining our freedoms is security freedom from want American enterprise has great opportunity to help other people the world over. . The businessman must sell a higher stand ard of living"
 The above was Aversll Hartman spsakias. not Henry Waaace.

Your Health
OXYGEN ON THE HOOP
By WILLIAM BRADY. M. D.

On the of chance that any reader may want to know whether I recommend bars, weights or other apparatus for exercising, let me say no, although a punching bag, box ing gloves, golf clubs, tennis rack cts, bowls, skates, webs or skis may be desirable equipment to have.
 If you have confined your athletic activity to long distance sitting for many years perhaps the best way to come back is to learn first how to somersault. When you acquire enough self-control to do half a dozen on the bedroom floor first thing every morning you'll be ready to begin physical training. Instruc- tions are given in the pamphlet The Somersaultauqua," mailed on written request if you inclose stamped self addressed envelope. Do not use a clipping-ask for 1t in writing.
 Probably this suggestion to roll somersaults will seem downright absurd to some people. But it is one of the few medicines I take I'd as lief go without coffee for breakfast or, what would be as dreadful. without sugar and cream in it, as omit my half dozen rolls first thing every morning. These rolls are hardly exercise. but l take 'em because I believe they counteract some of the evils we suffer from the hours we spend every day sitting or standing re- faxed or slumped "a state which favors sagging or ptosis of var ious internal structures and con- gestion in the dependent or lower veins. It is too bad that so many adults quit indulging in such un- dignified acti' cs as somersaults before they a.s quite grown up. That is one reason why they feel and look like sixty when they are still in their forties.

BIG AND LITTLE INCH
Hartford Times)

tharJLorG 11neSD
 Failing to receive a satisfactory bid for the purchase of the two oil transportation pipe lines, Big Inch and"Little Tnch." the government will need to revise its estimate of desired price or perhaps find itself permanently possessed of two white elephants"
 Indications from Washington are that Congress will have to revise the specifications which it had set up for the sale of these valuable wartime properties.
 An underlying difficulty has been that these pipelines will be a formi- dable form of competition to other forms of oil transport and fuel pro- duction. The railroads fear rate threats from the new owners of the two pipe lines and the coal miners unions are strongly opposed to cheaper oil fuel being sent into eastern territory.
 One form of argument has seemed to be inspired by this unfriendly group of interests. One can under stand their viewpoint but obviously the public, as represented by Con- gress, would like to benefit from the reduced cost of oil transportation which these pipelines afford.
 The War Assets Administration believes that the pipelines should be kept in service in order that they maybe available in the event of 8 future emergency. In urging that aspect of the property, the WAA is probably voicing a sentiment that has much congressional support. In this way the feeling of economical transportation in peace.ime and the availability of working properties in the event of national emergency, join to make a cogent argument for the sale and continued use of the property, even though this might be at a price considerably below that deemed to be fair under official specifications.
 The more immediate issue is whether the pipe lines should be used for shipping natural gas from the Texas fields to eastern cities. A Tennesse operator has offered to deliver the gas to eastern terminals in 30 days. Perhaps John L. Lewis should include that possibility among the reasons that make a pro- longed coal strike a serious threat to the future of coal mining. High wages are small comfort if there are no jobs.

Too-Early Training

An aviation engineer has suggested that jetpropeed commercial transports not ready for the public largely because the public is not ready for jetpropeed flying can fly passenger at 500 miles an hour Military pilots, flying jetprOpeed aircraft have found that flying at 500 miles hour in rough air beats the inside of your sto ach"
 Perhaps the real difficulty lies in the fact that jet pro pulson has along too late in evolutionary period of training for its rgors If had emerged at the end of stern apprenticeship blackboard wagons and Model T corduroy roads, probably could have taken rough aerial speed in stride. It's the cushioning spring and the smooth highway that have complicated matters.
