History Reversed
(Cincinnati EnQuirer

It is grim commentary on the trend of civiliza- tion Chough we suppose it is a sensible measure of precaution) to the Army and Navy surveying the nations caves for possible havens for war production if when an atomic war comes
 Man spent more than the entire recorded span of history working his way out of the At first he used caverns as a convenient abode It is not only ridcuous-it is than little tragic-that in this modern age of scientific enlightenment would be if atomic warfare starts.
 Yet, there it is. In the closing months of World War II in Europe, when the Allies finally had achieved almost unchallenged mastery of the skies the NaZis making effective use of underground factories Given more time, they would have been achieving relatively small but vital part of their production underground safe from the reach of any form of aerial attack including atomic bombs well super block busters
 Awhile back, the American Speeoogy Society group of explorers advanced the theory that every in the nation should oe plotted and da- grammed, and that the movement of key plants and offices underground should be started immediately. This seemed rushing things bit, but it revealed that the ArmyNavy Munitions Board already has directed military and civilian experts to survey the countrys caves for possible military use Among the caverns to be surveyed for available space, clear ance accessibility to air attack of into industrial production plants and general suitability for such purpose Kentuckys Mammoth Cave, along with less well-known caverns in Western Ken lucky the West Virginia chain of caves the Carlsbad Caverns in New Mexico, Wind Cave in South Dakota and forth.
 We almost refuse to believe that civilization on this continent will be driven such exremities But this is an age when unwingness to believe the worst eventuates in warfare has had disastrous conse- quenceS to more than one nation.

 These trends, the Bureau states, not yet being offset by any special measures aimed at getting these young workers back in school intelligently directed toward vocational opportunities. The Children's Bureau is urging schools labor unions industrial groups parent-eacher associations, and all others interested in the welfare of the nations youth to take look at this youth employment situa
 on before builds up into major proportions with alternative opportunities provided for young people A large part of the answer to how both educa- tona and work opportunities to be kept open to youth, the Bureau Chief says lies in full employment, for not only would it open suitable jobs to young income would make it possible for many to remain in school who would otherwise have to cut short their education and training in the hope of job poor it might be.
 Beyond what might be accomplished through 8 high level of employment for the whole population, special consideration must be given to the needs of youth. Among these needs are:
 l. Some form of student aid so that no young person will have to drop out of high school for lack of funds Ways should also be explored by which those who profit from education beyond the high school level may be financially assisted that they can go on with their studies.
 2. Counselling services in the community that young people, trying to decide between a job and school about what kind of work they want to enter may have the benefit of skilled advice.
 3. Good placement service for youth to help young people find the right" job

PROBLEM FOR YOUTH

Fewer employment opportunities are open to young workers today than year ago, and the whole youth employment situation bears watching for it has many dangerous potentalities says the Chidrens Bureau, U. s. Department of Labor.
 The statement it was explained, is based upon information brought in by the Bureaus staff from many parts of the country and upon various reports of recent developments from many agencies concerned with youth.
 "There is no evidence as yet that we have made any appreciable headway in regaining ground lost during the war when high school enrolment dropped by a million" said Katharine F. Lenroot the Bureaus Chief Boys and girls who left school then for jobs have not returned to high school classes. We now confronted with the possibility of ideness among the nations youth with thousands in the 14 to 17-year- old group neither in school where most o1 them shouo be- nor regularly employed"
 The Bureaus Chief cites the following trends in the youth employment situation
 l. Young veterans generally have the preference for the better jobs that is jobs that have future
 9 The high school diploma is regaining its pre- war value as job qualification Employers once more can find high school graduates for many jobs
 3. Many employers of their own accord rais- ing age requirements Personnel managers who took on 16- and 17-year-olds during the war now tend to prefer those Is years old and They are stead- ierv The trend particularly noticeable as it affects jobs in manufacturing industries
 4 Part-time employment opportunities for in- school youth are shrinking (Much of the decline in employment that has taken place far, it is be- lieved is in this kind of work) Employers now want full time workers and get them Young people who are dependent upon vacation and part-time en- ployment to meet part of their school expenses are often hard pressed particularly so when the older

This is an suspicious day for family activities, including reunions. Many who are still separated from their loved ones are looking for ward to the day when their families will be united again.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS
 Veterans and others contemplat- ing initial ventures in business will do well to give early consideration to their physical requirements, both as to operating space and equip ment. No amount of money will buy what is not available.
 NATIONAL ISSUES
 Expansion of the through coast to-coast rail service will be demand ed within short time. Thus far the accommodations are so limited that relatively few persons can en- Joy these new privileges.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS s
 The stiffening opposition of the United States and Britain to Rus sia's expansion aims has already had it's effect of Russian thinking and in time will result in com- plete revision of Soviet ambitions. It is unlikely that Russia will put out the welcome mat, but she will make little effort to conceal her admiration of the starching process which the U. s. foreign policy has undergone.

Case No. 6 is mentioned by Jus against Hugo Black. Jackson states that Chief Justice Stone did not sit in the North American Holding Company case or the Engineers Public Service Co. case because those companies were represented by his old law firm, Sullivan and Cromwell. That, however, was not the fact.
 The real fact is that the Chief Justice did sit in these two cases and under unique circumstances.
 At first he disqualified himself from the North American Holding Company case, because he had handled North Americans legal matters when he was with Sullivan and Cromwell. However, this gave the court no quorum, because three other justices had been either with the Justice Department ol the SEC when the North American case was brought
 About this time the Engineers Public Service Go. case also came before the Court, involving tho same holding company question. Il also was represented by Stones ole law firm. So some of his colleague. urged him to reconsider his dis. qualification and sit.
 Justice Roberts. however, did no join these colleagues. On the con, trary, he was emphatically opposed and told Stone that if he withdrew

FAMOUS RAILROAD LAWYER

Case No. 2-Three years later, Justice Pierce Butler sat in anoth- CT historic case, where his old cli- ent the Great. Northern Railroad, was involved. Not only had Justice Butler been the personal attorney for the Great Northern, but he was the intimate and personal friend of the railroads founder, James J. Hill. He was so close to Hill that when his name came before the Senate for confirmation, Senators Walsh of Montana, Cummings of Iowa and Nelson of Minnesota ex- acted a promise that Butler would not sit in railroad cases.
 In 1886, however, the Supreme Court had to decide whether the State of North Dakota was right in asserting certain taxes against Justice Buffers old client, the Great Northern.
 And Pierce Butler, completely cal ]ous to public opinion, completely ignoring the pledge given to tht now dead Senators, not only sat il the case but wrote the majority opinion. Hitherto, it was always as sumed that states and municipali ties had the power to tax. But act ing for a majority of the Suprem Court, Justice Butler abrogate' that power to the Nine Old Men and scaled sl0.Ooo,0O0 off the ta bill of his old client, the Grea Northern Railroad.
 Joining Butler in the majorit opinion were Justice Roberts, flo 30 years an attorney for the Penn sylvania Railroad; Justice Willi Van Devanter, former attorney fo the Union Pacific; and Chief Jus tice Charles E. Hughes, who ha represented many railroads. The all voted with their old clients.

LONDON, July 27.-A week of
parliamentary bye-elections, the
first broad sampling of British po-

Government heads thoughtful but

But Labor's share of the popular
vote dropped 4 per cent from last

Conservative opposition's spurted 10
per cent.
The Liberal Party which polled 6
per cent of the 1945 vote in the
three constituencies was not repre-
sented in the bye-elections. and the
bulk of its support was claimed for
Conservatives.
Some prominent Conservatives
saw signs that the fioodtide of So

Drug Tests Provided
Curb ON Seasickness
For D-Day Troops
By Thomas R. Henry

Troops who landed in Normandy
on D-Day were fairly well protected
against seasickness with remedies
tested late the previous winter in a
joint project carried out on waters
Of the North Atlantic by the Navy
Army and Canadian medical officers
Each developed slightly different
| formula. All three apparently are
about equally effective. The one
adopted by the Navy was the SIM
plest, consisting of treatment with
single drug, hyocine. This is an
alkaloid related to atropine which
has depressant action on the CEN
trail nervous system. Both the Army
and the Canadians used the same
substance but mixed with it small
amounts of other depressant drugs
They believed that these mixtures
would be effective in somewhat
smaller doses than hyocine alone.
Little Sickness Developed.
Although very little seasickness
developed during these tests or dur
ing the Channel crossings a few
months later, none of the services
claim to have found a "preventa-
tive"
1t is practically impossible to
cite statistics since seaSickneSs var
les so widely in its manifestations
and intensity and depends so much
on the nervous makeup of the
individual. About all that can be
said is that with any of the three
remedies the dreaded NAL de mer
ceases to be serious problem for
large majority of the men.
1t had been realized from the
first that seasickness would be a
major problem in the Normandy
landings. The waters to be crossed
are notoriously rough. The men
would be in a state of high nervous
/ tension. which increases the proba-
bility of Seasickness.
There was also the gloomy pros
pect of men ordered to charge across
the bullet-swept beaches being so
weak and despondent from the
crossing ordeal that they would be
at a great disadvantage.
Tested on March Convoys.
The remedies were tested late in
March on conveys putting out from
Boston. A majority of the men
never had been at sea before.
| The hyocine, or either of the
other remedies of which it is the
main ingredient, was given either
in the form of pills or by injec-
tion-depending on the individual
Although it proved quite efficient
it offers little comfort to the ma
jority of civilians who become sick

and the like. Like any other aka

Discuss Settlement
BY the Associoted Press

PRETORIA, South Africa, Aug
3l.-Government circles said tonight
that negotiations now under way In
Washington to settle South Africa S
lease lend accounts would result in
the Unions paying the United States
about 100000 pounds 5000, 0O0,-
0O0).
A political writer In the Sunday
Times said, however, the United
States would expect substantial COM
mercial concessions in return for the
balance of 1881, 700 pounds 1885,
100000 worth of goods supplied to
South Africa during the war.
Although South Africans first
were astounded at the size of the
debt, most of them believe the
United States does not expect re-
payment of the entire amount. Some
circles pointed out, however, that
President Truman has emphasized
the obligation on the part of debtor
nations to pay what they can afford
and make trade concessions for
the remainder as envisaged in orig
inal lease lend agreements.
