The so-called cloud burst is caused
by violent uprushes of air that pre-
vent condensing raindrops from fall
ing to the ground, according to the
Encyclopedia Britannica. When a
large amount of water has accumu-
lated at high levels and the upward
currents weaken, all of the water
falls at once. During severe cloud
burst al Porto Bello, Panama, almost
two ana half inches of rain fell in

LOOKING
AHEAD
" GEORGE S. BENSON
h President--HardiHg college
Searry. ArkahSds
Squads Right

Loyal military experts want ev-
cry precaution taken in America to
prevent another such calamity as
Pearl Harbor. The nation as
whole subscribes to that policy. The
shout for universal military train
ing is itself an hysterical cry for
more national safety, but it is i'll
considered. Being a school man,
knowing the possibilities of youth,
know it is unwise.
l am in favor of an adequate
standing army, a powerful peace
time navy and all the other fac
tors of a positive national defense.
l am willing to let men of proven
generalship say how big an army is
adequate and how much navy is
ample. Those are matters that few
civilians are qualified to discuss.
But however big the need is, Amer
lea should have no less.
Least Costly Way
| am in favor of advancing the
base pay of enlisted personnel to an
attractive level; sufficiently high to
get enough men in service by vol
untary enlistment. My reasons are
three: (I 1t would save the coun-
try money, (2) 1t would provide a
better fighting force and 90 1t
would cause the least disturbance
to economic, scientific and cultural
progress of the nation.
Cramming year of military
training into the life pattern of ev-
cry American boy when he turns Is
or finishes high school, would be an
undertaking of fabulous cost, need
less cost. Most of the youngsters
could never use what they learned
principally squads right and many
of them, if distorted into soldiers,
would make miserably poor ones at
| best.
No Misfit's Job
There is no place in the Amer
ican armed services for a misfit,
however sternly trained. The most
routine army post is filed better
by a willing soldier. Furthermore,
war is growing yearly more tech
nical. It requires more knowledge
than reluctant trainee can acquire
in year. When a man does acquire
useful skill in defense, he deserves
to be retained and paid well.
Without any shade of disrespect
to Americas fighting men and their
singular resourcefulness and hero
ism, World War II was won in lab
oratory, field and factory as GER
tainly as on the firing line. A lot
of young men who would be misfits
in any fighting force will be the
technicians of tomorrow, and they
can't spare a year of preparation
| to learn foot drill.
One Basic Error
l know that great many smart
people are in favor of universal
military training, and for honorable
reasons. But / have another seri-
GUS objection to it in addition to the
ones presented above. Universal
military training is RECOMMENDATION OF
the whole nation, in limited way.
1t is the opening wedge with which
the few can show the many who S
boss.
Suspicion may well be 1eveled at
the Naziferous notion of compulsory
military training. It sounds like a
defense measure but it is not. The
first effect of it would be to inter-
rupt the training of technicians and.
since modern warfare is technical,
it would actually cripple national
defense. By carefully selecting vol
unteers and paying them well,
Uncle Sam can have a better fight
ing force at less cost in money and
with less confusion.

FOREIGN DEMAND FOR SILVER
GROWS GREATER

Commenting on the silver supply of the
world, The Economist, widely quoted finan-
cial paper of London, England, predicts a
long time shortage Of silver. The demand
for the white metal from foreign countries
was never greater. The 410 million ounces
the United States has %lend-leased to six for
eign nations was only a drop in the bucket
toward meeting the demand. England has
even abolished her silver coin in an effort
to get enough remelt silver to pay the loan,
and in India silver is selling on the open
market for $1.20 an ounce.
In all countries where compilations are
made of industrial consumption of silver, fig
ures have been rising steadily during the war
years and the intake of silver for the arts
and industry was at a high record in 1916.
In that year the United States absorbed for
these purposes the staggering amount of lao
million ounces. Britain used Is million ounces,
Mexico 612 million ounces. and Canada 6
million ounces.
These figures We're swamped, however, by
the absorption of the eastern drain for silver
-an absorption which defies exact statistical
measurements because so much of the silver
went into boards in India: for example, was
coin which disappeared from circulation.
The United States contributed to some ex-
tent to the satisfaction of this boarding de-
mand for silver on special lend-lease terms
to India and Saudi Arabia.

PEOPLE EATING LESS

San Francisco.-"We're eating less
meat, less butter and oleomargarine,
less eggs, drinking less milk, buying
less clothing-and still our savings are
fading away"
That was the information turned up
in a survey of CLIO families by the
California CLIO Council research de-
partment and the Labor Herald. Made
in September and October before price
controls were lifted on meat, the sur
vey showed that four out of five fam
lilies had to dig into their savings to
eat the same amount of food as be-
fore.
A considerable number are spending
their savings to eat less food than
before. The savings Of 45fe of the fam
lilies at the time OF the survey had
shrunk to less than $500. Families
polled earned an average Of S4S.30 a
week to support an average of OF
persons.
Some families have completely
eliminated butter, practically eliminat-
ed meat from their diets. It's impos-
sible to eliminate clothing but, MY

PRESIDENT TRUMAN-THEN AND NOW

President Truman has been carrying a wor-
rysome responsibility since he moved into the
White House as chief executive of the nation.
No president has ever been under as heavy
a load of after-the-war civic responsibility.
The economics and runaway merchandise
ing of this country have been upon his should
ers, as day by day he has moved up the steep
rocky hill Of reconversion. There were only
a few Republicans in the congress willing to
help him at all. They have been throwing
political rocks most of the time at Mr.. Tru-
mans legislative program-the same pro-
gram that Franklin Roosevelt advocated all
the way to four successful elections.
Now the Republicans have the congress.
We will see if they can balance the budget
as fast as they said they would-before cleo
ton. We will see if they can pay off the
debt as fast as they said they could-before
election. We will see if they can fix the cost
of living in a few weeks, as they said they
could-before election. We will see if they
can keep prosperity going on the farm and in
the factory as they declared they would-be-
fore election.
President Truman, meanwhile, in his after
election statement does not waste words talk
ing back at those Republicans who have been
throwing rocks at him. Like a real gentle
Montana labor news., 1946-11-21

man. he tells them to take over the whole
merchandising show except rents and sugar
and rice. He is entirely willing to act as ref
cree as long as they do not tamper with the
general welfare for partisan advantage.
Mr.. Truman is polite enough to say he be-
lieves the Republicans will play fair. We
hope and pray he is correct. Anyhow, he is
a good sport in a somewhat risky prophecy.
Therefore, let's join with the president and
pray that the Republicans can control their
own party-in Montana and all over.
Indeed. the responsibilities Of government
are now divided. The heavy load is over in
the lap of the Republicans. 1t will be inter-
esting to observe how many of the Roosevelt
laws they will dare to repeal and how they
get along without passing some of the rest of
them they have so far hindered.
Mr.. Truman has been a hard working pres
ident. He will be an equally good referee.
