Rigid Incomes, and Initiation
Cincinnati Enquirer

There was a time, in national history wher | the overwhelming majority of our people received either wages profits professional feeS-with few living from rents Virtually all had rather flexible incomes It would hardly be to say they could take imitation and defation in their stride But say that it competitive society and adjustments to changes in the value of money almost auto matically and did not work extraordinary hardshipS any class of people.
 The situation today is very different We are far less able make the adjustments involved in either imitation or defation because of rgidities in our economic system.
 Today millions of American families live pen sion payments by virtue of their age, their veteran status their physical handicaps These pensions gratuities are fixed by law dollars. They not likely to be changed ofen merely because the dollar buys less and less from month to month
 Other millions live wholly or largely on annuities or on the interest from bonds matured insurance benefits Their incomes for the remainder of their lives fixed in dollars. For them there is no way out if the dollar declines materially in buying power
 Millions more although they work for wages salaries have relied their insurance estates or on social security both for support their old or educate their children They have paid premiums in dollars for many years They will receive the benefits, or their children will, in fixed of dollars. Imitation will hurt them cruelty; and there is no way to protect them, except to avoid the nfa tion of prices
 It is not necessary to assume a runaway imitation order to show grave danger of our national sta bility Even a very moderate imitation would i'm poverish millions of Americans who have bought insu ance and war bonds in the confidence that the dollar is a reasonably stable measure of value And even slight imitation would previously impair the living standard of millions of and women, aged and infirm who rely on pensions stipulated by law in dollars.
 The danger is a real one, although the buck passing and log-rolling at Washington give little evidence that the gravity of the danger understood

ANCHORAGE HITS JACKPOT

Headline in The Anchorage Times on the day 1t was announced that two air routes from the States would have Anchorage as the Alaska stop was An chorage Hits Air Jackpot"
 That putting it mildly. With the new air routes in operation and huge airliners arriving in Anchorage daily from Seattle and Chicago on their way to Tokyo that city will have more air passengers in and out than any city in Alaska.
 Juneau will continue to have good air service from here to Seattle and to all Alaskan points, but 1t IS unfortunate that inadequate landing field pro- hbits the use of -motored equipment in and out of Juneau This community will continue to be avoided as a stop for any international route until some solution the problem of getting four-moored planes in and out can be reached.
 Some contend that larger and longer field would solve the problem while others claim that the terrain prohibits safe operation of the larger planes under any circumstances.
 The best thing Juneauites can do is to get busy

His cockney accent is uncultured but he dares to speak He is the only man who comes anywhere near preaching the Sermon on The Mount, who tells the bored men in the red plush seats that they must love their neighbors as themselves. .Unpleasantly Evatt steps on the toes of the big nations-tells them they have no business sabo- tagging the peaceful goal of others. They don't like Evatt. but they listen Even patient, polite, Jimmie Byrnes doesn't like Evatt But he listens. Thousands of men under white crosses listen, too. Clement Attlee, Prime Minister of Britain, speaks-the man who per formed the miracle of defeating war leader Winston Churchill-a modest man, a s:ncere, earnest man. His bald head shines under the klieg lights. But it is no halo. Some hours peiore Attlee was hag- gling with Jimmy Byrnes over the future of Germany-bartering over the peace of the world; wanting to trade off British policy in Pales- tine for an American policy in Germany. Clement Attlee, La bor Price Minister of England, re- presenting the dreams of millions, pickering over the "hopeS we cher ished for mankind" Thousands of white crosses, silent crosses, listen ing crosses. We have heard men say when we were living that some small dream of good would cost too much. But when the war came we have watched men giving and seen them move the mountains with one touch" Peace, say the bored men in the red plush seats, is too difficult.
 If one could only shout to Jim mic Byrnes! If only he weren't so far away. If only he weren't so pa- tient and polite. If he would only get up and be himself Can't you see, Jimmie, that peace is slip ping through your fingers? Can't you see that, instead of writ ing a peace, the world is choosing up sides for the next war? Can't you hear the voices of the men who died on Okinawa and Leyte, at St. Lo and the Belgian bulge? They'll never forgive you, Jimmie, if you let them down. What can be done we know; but have no fear. If you fail now, we shall not see nor hear" This is the greatest moment of your life, Jim mic. You have been Senator, Su- preme Court Justice, War Mobiliz- CT. a great record. But if the peace of the world slips through your fingers.
 Twenty-seven years ago, at the same place, in the same setting, at the same kind of Peace Conference, Clemenceau is supposed to have said: "Listen I can hear the SOL diers of l940 weeping" Today, I can hear my sisters, sons, and all the sons of millions of mothers who put their hopes in you, Jim mic, can hear them all over ParlS.' weeping.

 Paris today is depressingly the same. We invent modern methods of warfare. Rockets that may reach the moon, atomic bombs that sink navies, germs than can de- Stroy civilization. but the Wea- pons of peace never keep pace with the weapons of war. nor do the diplomats who wield the wea- pons of peace. The same crowd which failed to head off the last war is here again-even some of the same crowd which sat in at the last Paris Peace Conference. Look at their faces. Poker faces. No life, no lift. no passion for the peace they are negotiating, bored faces, preoccupied faces, bor- ed with the endless tranSlations. Bored with the whole boredom of diplomacy. Not man among them who lost an arm or a leg, who knows what it is to suffer on the battlefield. These are the men who are writing the peace.
 Jimmy Byrnes is not bored. Po- lite, patient, precise Jimmy Byrnes sits on the front row-perhapS he is too polite, too patient. !. You feel like shouting down at Jimmy. You wish you could tell him
 That was a great speech you made the other day, Jimmy, but finish it.
