Urge Panama Canal
Be Made BombP Proof

Need for converting the Panama
Canal into sea level route be-
tween the two oceans had been
stressed this week at a New York
meeting of the American Society of
Civil Engineers.
Locks and dams of the present
canal, said John G.. Calburn, super
intendent Of the canals dredging,
are vulnerable to bombing and an
atomic bomb attack, he declared,
would make repair virtually impos-
sible. Wartime damage to the Suez

"TAx" FOR WAGE INCREASES

Higher prices appear be the formula for settling strikes
If manufacturers permitted to for their goo
they will naturally be position higher Peha
it S the only way
But what such a settlement is this: the
wage increases which labor has demanded going
to be paid by the people When you pay more for
than the price named in the original ceiling,
will be paying that extra amount in order to help
the wage increases demanded by the automobile
workers All along the line, matter what you buy
"tax" will be added for wage increases.
The people who will suffer from this limited inlati
will be those who didn't strike who don't belong unions,
who will have pay higher prices without getting any
in income.
