OPA SPEEDS UP
(NeW York Times)

N3NS" 4oAh AAAAASoi
 Throughout the war and the tran sition period delay was character istic of OPA in making justified changes in price regulations. Now the agency is acting with com- mendable speed in carrying out President Truman's instructions for an acceleration of price de- controls. Under its latest order price ceilings have been removed from all foods except sugar, molas- ses, syrup, and rice. For cache of these items special considerations dictate temporary continuation of control. A major proportion of the consumers food dollar is spent for meats, dairy prducts, poultry fish, fresh fruits and vegetables and eggs all of which had been previously freed from control. This new action, therefore, affects only small part of the food dollar.
 The close nterrelationship be- tween the prices of the products previously freed from control and those which had remained under control until Wednesday night made further control mot feasible or practicable. AS OPA pointed out the relative importance of these items was so small that "reten- tion of control over the products be- ing decontrolled would not make a sufficient contribution to stab- ilization to warrant its mainten- ance." There are many non-food items to which this same generaliza- tion is applicable.

Depression Corner

WASHINGTON, Oct. 26-(NEA)-Alarmed that many people are casually accepting the idea that another depression and not prosperity just around the corner" leading American businessmen in the war-born Committee for Economic Development have decided to continue their organization in effort to slave off the bust predicted to follow odays boom Continuing chairman of CED is Paul G. Hoffman, president of Stakeholder Corporation.
 During the war CED organized some 10000 busi nesSmen in 2,900 communities, to speed up reconver sion after contracts cancelled. This phase of CED work wound up last Spring, but the ganization's broad business research program has been carried on.
 It is Paul Hoffman,s opinion that if proper meas had been taken prior to 192932 the depression of that period could have been greatly lessened.
 In moving against the next depression, which > now being widely predicted, the big idea will be to keep high-level employment To this end, some 90 leading American ndustrialsts making up the CED board of trustees met in Washington last week ant staked out three principal for investigation.
 Most difficult is the field of labor management relationship. The committees study of this question is being based on the not-So- surprising conclusion that this relationship nasn't been good in the past, and that something should be done to improve it.
 group headed by Douglass D. Brown of Massa- chusetts Institute of Technology has been named to do research this subject concentrating the first few months methods of collective bargaining. Il winter After that dozen top-flight ndustralists will review the report and make their recom- mendationS
 Included in this committee are such men as Nel. Rockefeller Eric Johnston, Phil Reed of Genera Electric Fowler Mccormick of International Harvest CT, John D. Biggers of Libby Owens Ford Labor lead CTS will be given chance to review the program bu the government will be cut out of the picture.
 CED is staying completely away from any idea of bringing out recommendations for a legislative program to improve labor relations. The aim is to improve conditions under the free enterprise sys- tenn, without government controls. Believing that

Merry Round

WASHINGTON, Oct. 26-GnarIed, knOtty-faced Senator Theodore BiIbo of Mississippi long has been known as the No. rabble-rouser of the US.A. Few, however have realized that he also the No. gouger of contractors and had stacked up neat little pile for himself as result.
 In the early days of war preparation, Senator Bilbo seemed to know his way around the war De- partment and was instrumental in getting several lucrative contracts for Mississippi friends-includng Key Field at Meridian and Keesler Field at Biloxi The Mississippi contractors who profited were chiefly Newton Glenn of Hattiesburg, and Morr1ssy-Knost of Pass Christian.
 The latter firm got war contracts totalling $3,- 527 26839 in 1943 Both firms were in on the Keesler Field construction at total cost of $11748620 Their fixed-fee profit out of this 5,000 part of it shared with the J. A. Jones Company of Charlotte, N. C.
 What these gentlemen from Mississippi promised the Senator from Mississippi in return for his help in getting these lush contracts is their secret How ever, whatever they promised they delivered a lot. And this column is now able to set forth in detail what they ponied up-some of it apparently in viola tion of criminal statutes which say that member of Congress cannot receive fee for lobbying any matter pertaining to the Federal Government
 Pony No. Lone of the first things the con- tractors poned up for Senator Bilbo artificial lake with island in the middle, and nice house built on the island. These built by F. T. Newton of the Newton Glenn Company, and by Michael T. Morrissy of Morrssy Knost both profiting from Keesler Field at Biloxi
 Newton and Morrissy dug out Bilbo's lake orig inallyl at a cost to the U S. taxpayer of $3,67291 Reason the U. s. taxpayer 70 be out of pocket that Morrissy charged the expense of the lake up to one of his war contracts Later, however, he changed it to account receivable from Bibo. Bilbo has paid him, however, so perhaps it will be deducted from income taxes as bad debt, which the taxpayer will foot most of the bill just the same.
 Cost of Bilbo's house the island, now called Dream House No. 2' has not been ascertaned The men and equipment employed in digging the lake were being used on contract at that time.
 Having fixed up the lake, island and dream house, Newton and Morrissy even went so far as to give their benefactor the furniture to equip his house. This presented Christmas Eve, 1941 the furniture costing $1000 On top of this Morrissy gave Gibo a $1912 Cadillac.
 Originally Morrssy deducted the cost of the car from his 1941 income tax return contribution, but later filed amended return emitting this deduction
 Pony No. 2-In addition to the lake, dream house automobile and furniture, the two contractors also ponied up $2, 400 to Senator Bilbo Nov. 2, 1941 The money was split in two parts F. T. Newton gave Bilbo $,200 while D. L. Knost of the Morrssy Knost

Happy Republicans

LOUISVILLE, KY, Oct 26-Any change nation ally in political way usually can be forecast by atmospheric disturbances in the border states.
 There are such disturbances here in Kentucky, as already reported previously in Missouri President Democrats. As astute political reporter put It, there is something in the situation here reminiscent of 1892 when the Roosevelt wave was getting ready to hit-only it's in exactly the opposite direction
 Republicans literally are pinching themselves. They say the reports almost too good to oeneVe Democrats here obviously much worried, as they are, too at national headquarters Tn WaSnngCon roi they are most anxious to win the Senate seat at stake here temporarily filled by Republican ap- pointee help hold what is beginning to look like precarious margin-f any-in the United States Sen ate.
 The Senate race is reported now about 5O-50 Republicans are backing John sherman Cooper State Circuit Court judge, personable and forcetul canol- date, against John Young Brown perennial canol- date for this and that, who served term in the House at the start of the Roosevelt New Deal MT Brown is vigorous campaigner who has made some enemies through the years
 From certain signs this reporter would deduce, going out on limb, that Republicans nave more than even chance to win the Senate seat and also ln- crease their House strength, possibly by two seats maybe more.
 The Democratic filters were manifest among oth- CT ways by sending their political man mountain Senator Alben w. Bakrley, over the state on one ot his characteristic transforming tours The Democratic Senate leader a popular figure in this state stretched his party regularity to the nth degree when he even spoke for Rep Andrew J. May, who is facing a hard fight. MT. May, House Military Affairs Com mttee chairman is still confined to his home with the illness that has kept him from going to Washing ton to testify in the Carson case in which he IS involved

by Peter Edson

.om 80 to 90 percent of all strikes are loss to both management and labor the organization will seek some other to settle labor management differences This is believed to be the first such ap- proach to the problem.
 Second will be a study of wage-price relation ships The goal is to how real wages can be raised in relation to purchasing power. The old idea that wages can be raised only If the amount of the raise is taken away from the consumer will be abandoned The emphasis will be put increasing productivity so that labors return be increased while prices are lowered.
 Third will be an inquiry into the governments fiscal and monetary policy. This s extremely tricky too deep for most people to understand, put tre- mendously important.
 Today this problem has proportions. Twenty years ago the government took one billion dollars out of total national production of 75 billion To- day the government takes 40 out Of l6o billion doi- lars national production How the government spends this money has a decided effect on the national economy.
 This leads to a study of how the governments ax policy affects business levels CED made its tax policy recommendations two years ago ana IS SUCK ng by it's recommendation Of that tune.
 Briefly it is that the tax policy of government ;hould be stabilized. instead of changed every year. With set for normal level or prosperity gov arnment income should cover government expenses. But in periods increased prosperity at present. hese fixed tax rates would build up surplus against ears of sub normal business activity.
 There is no dreamy vision in this planning by he business leaders that depressons can be entirey .yaded Straight line evernormal prosperity under he free enterprise system is admitted to be mpos- ;ible. But the fluctuations can be mnimlzed the CED planners believe. They insist that high employ ment must be maintained if the effects of a receS- sion are to be reduced And they admit that If busi- ess is not careful the country have real panic
 When far-sighted responsible business leaders tackle problems of this magnitude in intelligent approach, it is news of the first order.

A Thought for Today
New Definitions

The problem of finding an accurate, American 1946 model definition of beral and conservatve continues to bother good many people. But doesn't to puzzle coumnist Samuel Grafton who in recent article clearly
 implied that liberals people who favor government price control conservatives champions of free enterprise
 That definition is simple but perhaps not wholly sats factory. It trife exclusive for embracing political label Further the liberalism of government agement is scarcely the liberalism of Thomas Jefferson However the definition illustrates point of view which not being exclusively Mr. Grafons deserves consideration.
 This viewpoint has that the conservatives who spent the postwar year in crczng the liberals the spot They found easy blame everything price control and interference But that they succeeded wreckng price controls they must that they lick all present problems So the con- servatves little embarrassed not frightened by their responsibilities.
 MT. Grafton the shoe the other foot, with the liberal governmencontro group taking pot shots at the conservative freeenterprsers specuates poss bity of conservative blunders which would strengthen the liberal movement even more than the liberals own efforts
 This viewpoint is obviously correct in of it's ob servaons Of it is easier to criticize than to form But is the theory of private enterprise hazardous untried and fraught with peril that the whole American business structure must quake in it's boots at the prospect of conducting it's affairs along traditional and generally cessfu nes Is imitation the only alternative to the scarcity sowness strife and unofficial imitation of the past year?
 The answer could be yes if business has learned noth ing from the depression of 929 and widespread greed is again to outweigh The answer could be price control administration had been fawless and ii all complaints against it simply the nsincere squawks of proteers It could be if the liberal governmentcon troers are adopt reaiaoy program of criticism and obstruction es.
 But we do not think that an answer of yes inevitable There black markets and shortages of food and hous ing under Russias complete control and the partial government control in Britain And there the ord of wartime accomplishments by American business and industry.
 That record not creation of government control but of American productive capacity achieved under private enterprise and American effort exerted with united will
 We worked hard to win the war Then we separated into quarresome groups. If all of us management and labor liberal and conservative priv Ateenterprisers recapture of wartime spirit there is little for fear isn't necessary for the United States to substitute socialism for free enterprise in order get back it's feet But is necessary to class warfare and responsibility for doing what going to be hard job under system of controls lack of them.

WALKING WEATHER
(NeW York Times)


 When the last few leaves are dropping from naples, beeches, elms and birches, when the slow-flowing woodland brooks are no longer con- cealed by a moist carpet of golds, reds and browns, comes the years best walking weather. In the hill country of the northland the pas ture oaks cling to their faded-brown leathery foliage, but sidehill groves and hardwood ridges are temple froveS for brief time each sunny day.
 Between leaf-dropping time and Indian Summer comes an interlude of bracing days and tingling nights. Each morning white hoarfrost lies on meadows and fields. The Fall blowing is mass of little icy crinkles and ravines AS the late- rising reluctant sun sends it's slant- ing rays over chilled world the light calls forth miniature jewel gleamings for few moments. Sn all ponds of mist gather in the low lands and hesitatingly dissolve into nothingness as the morning wears on. Wisps of mist play over the dark, damp wooden shingles on wealth cred spring houses and gray-board- ed barns.
 It's good to walk on the land in late October. There's crispness in the air whether sun be shining or stratus clouds cast gray hue over the valleys and mountains. How that leaves have fallen from ald- CTS and sumacs and the goldenrod and asters half droop toward the ground, one can see the etched li- chen pictures on the stone walls; the great heaps of stones in the corners of upland fields look like piles of big gray applies. The yell low-tan soil before woodchuck dens makes dots by the pacture fence. From an upland lookout one can see far. White church spires make explanation points among village elms; the river winding through the brown valley floor is a crooked silver thread. On a clear night when when the countryman climbs to 'the top of the steep pacture it seems as if the sky were an !nvert- ed bowl flecked with golden dots. This is the season of walking wealth CT, and he who traverses the low land and uplands feels in closer touch with verities that offer solace in a troubled world.

QUESTIONS and ANSWERS
 TetanuS TOxOid

Noted physician advises in - magazine giving tetanus toxoid along with diphtheria toxoid to 6 month old babies. How long would the effects of tetanus toxoid last?
 (MrS. c. Al
 Answer-Fact that he wrote for the magazine would make him noted, no matter how obscure he may be. Whatever immunity against tetanus Qockjaw) one or two injections of tetanus toxoid may produce prob ably lasts less than a year. The diphtheria immunity produced by diphtheria toxoid or toxin-antitoxin injections probably lasts for several years-long enough to protect the child through the first five or six years of childhood, when a child is most susceptible to diphtheria, as a rule.

THE EAST HAMPTON TRAGEDY
(Hartford Times)

What householder, reading of the death of 10 persons in the destruc- tion by fire of cottage in East Hampton, but shivers as he thinks that conditions in his own home are similar to those where tragedy struck on poignantly in the mid dle of the night?
 How many private homes have front or rear doors that open out ward?
 How many have windows as in- accessible as were those in that cot tage where a mother and eight of her children, and grandchild, were burned CT suffocated?
 Had that door where five bodies were found opened outward, how less terrible that fire might have been! The law requires that doors of public buildings must open out ward, but dwellings are not under such control. What home owner ever thinks that death will stalk his family as it sleeps peacefully through the night. Why put on doors that open to the wind and cold, that are more inconvenient than those that open inward? But
