Among the achievements of Local

heart ailment.
The deceased was a member of
Village Council and the Sebring
Trades and Labor Council He was af-
filiated with First Methodist Church

tional Brotherhood of Operative Pot
terS.

ken i'll over the weekend and early

pital. He was placed in the Moosman-
Vogt Funeral Homes ambulance for

for 1916 and 1947. Both must have the
vigorous and undivided support of all
those fighting for veterans housing
and for decent homes for all Ameri-
can families"
By and large, Wyatt declared, "the
same small but powerful groups
which have opposed all progressive
housing legislation in the past" are
lined up against the premium pay
ment provision and the anti-specula-
ton provision which will be sought
as amendments to veterans housing
legislation before the Senate. They
are largely the same groups, he said,
which are opposing "the basic provi-
sions of the Wagner -Ellender-Taft
bill-and fighting with special vehe-
mence the low-rent public housing
provisions.
Issue Held "Clear-Cut"
The issue, he said, is clear-cut.
without the tools to do the job,
we cannot build 100000 homes and
apartments for veterans by the end
of 1947-at prices and rents veterans
can afford" he continued.
without premium payments, we
won't get the materials for 2,7O0,00O
homes for veterans and the homes we
do get will be at higher prices. With
out ceiling prices against speculative
re-sales, we cannot check initiation in
existinng real estate.
without the Wagner Ellender :
Taft bill, we cannot open up perma-
nant new markets for private hous-
ing, we cannot assure continued tech
nical progress in housing standards,
we cannot clear our slums and re-
build our cities, and we cannot assure
decent shelter for low-income fami-
lies"

Union Will
Drill Test
Near Devon

Unien on Company of Cali
f0rnia this week made location
for a wildcat in what Is classed
as the Devon area, north of the
Devon oil pool and the Devon
gas field, and east of the Kelvin
SHnburst field, on the Daniels0n
farm I'm C NE NE NV 8-S4N.
&c. Rig is moving on.
The test Is in an area In which
previous wells have found promis-
ing oil showings, particularly some
of the wells that were drilled by
Northern Ordnance Company few
years ago. 1t is reported the Union
location was made in part because
a study of these logs indicated a
favorable structural condition in
this area.
The well on the Danielson farm
is to be carried to the Madison lime.

According to j. w. johnson, Presi-

drilling is planned with the OBJ
jective of defining the pool outlines,
following which leases in the
proven area will be intensively
drilled. High-gravity oil from wells
in this pool now has a market value
of sits a barrel.
Approximately dozen additional
wells are drilling in widespread por-

Can We Turn Back the Clock?

President Truman likes small business, small colleges, small towns.
When he spoke in praise of them at a commencement the other day
he "a expressing the nostalgia yearning that many feel for days gone
by. A thousand little banks, the President feels, RI better than one big
one; a hundred steel corporations preferable to L. S. Steel. In the same
spirit it has recently been said that we need a lot of little unions instead
of a few big ones. And when big powers can't agree on peace treaties,
there is a disposition to feel that perhaps the little ones can.
Nostalgia has its place, but not as a safe guide to action. We venture
to think that bigness is here to stay-bg business, big labor, big
government, big nations. One may regret, one may deplore. But the
clock does not turn back.
How can we live with bigness? That is the question. How direct
the energies of big business, big labor, big government, into those
channels that serve the welfare of all the people?
The completely of the problem arises from the very fact that
it does demand sustained creative effort. An economy based o many
competitive small units policies itself A balance-of-power peace is like
a marvellous perpetual motion machine; you set it going and walk
away. But both the self-policing economy and the automatically checked
and balanced peace have a depOrable way of going hayWire in the end
That is history. To substitute security for the illusion thereof, we must
mterject the conscious effort of informed intelligence.
At the moment, certainly, the human race is not doing too we'll
Against the clear public interest in American economic sterilization,
The power of many lesser soveregnties is asserting itself on the side
Of initiation. Against the common mans desperate stake in peace the
clash of nationalites retards progress toward a world sovereignty that
can keep the peace.
But the struggle toward the promised land must go on, and cannot
be won by wishing away the problems of bigness. We shall win only
by sunnoning the resources of democratic self-diciplne which will
enable the people to rule bgness in their own pervadng interest

LOST WORLD

Speaking at a college in Maryland, President Harry Truman ex-
pressed himself on the question of small business. Against the back
ground of a small town, the President was apparently moved by his
surroundings.
If it is possible to judge by the swift newsreel appraisal of the
President, it was one of the few times when he had renowned the use
OF a completely ghost-Written speech and was intent On expressing the
feelings that were close to his heart.
Truman said, Il was born in a small town. l was raised in a small
small educational institutions and small communities. 1 think this
country is great o. account Of its small educational institutions more
than anything else"
Boldly mentioning by name the Metropolitan Life Insurance Com
pany, the United States Steel Corporation, and the National City Bank,
the President asserted that he would rather see many small insurance
companies, many steel corporations and many small banks rather than
the three large institutions.
Trumans faith in srnallness, while it puts him on the side of some
of the modern technolOglsts who are Pumping for decentralization,
has a quaint and pathetic character. Truman is the president of a
country whose economic drives are determined by some twenty or
thirty vast monOpOies of the type of U. S. Steel, Metropolitan Life and
the National City Bank. Their unregulated free enterprise" created a
system which has resulted in tremendous concentration of wealth in
the hands Of the few major corporations. Expressions Of faith in little
ness" are meaningless. In America, socialism alone could stop the
growing trend toward a fusion of state and mOnopolies, and effectively
consider decentralization.
