\ Thought For Today
Family Trouble

An unhappy occurrence in London the other day brought hc happy assurance that the world Is really hecom iny a family of nations For this occasion the world was allowed to listen in on a family quarrel And while family uuarre are never pleasant affairs ordinary people cant he blamed if confess to rather pleasant feeling ot eN cemen, al being assigned the role of spectators.
 The quarrel was between Mr. Bevn of Great Britain and Mir Nshnskv the Soviet Union On behalf of the respective countries they said some hard tngS aoout one another at q meeting of the UNO Security Council Mir N said the presence of British troops in Greece endanger ing world peace Mr E. answered that the real threat to world peace was the ncessant Communist snipng at the British Commonwealth.
 There undoubtedly been quarrelS like this be- fore But they have been diplomatic not family, quarrelS They held behind closed doors because it was felt that while their outcome might seriously affect the lives o millions their and solution were strictly the business of a small group of top government officials.
 So the officials fought in private. They might look grim when they emerged from behind the closed door but the children of the family could only at what their dpo- matic papas and mamaS had been saying.
 Now, perhaps things are going to be different There isn't much cause for cheering in the Set-to between Mr. Vshnsky and Mr. Bevin This is particularly true since their quarrel has the family for couple of genera ons It is of course the old about who gets to control he Mediterranean Recent nagging hasn't helped the par cpants tempers. But good deal of fussng the GUS ody of the children Greek ranan and Javanese is dra- matics and camoufage.
 Nevertheless it better have the quarreling done with the doors open The antagonists stubborn and strong wed but with audience present they may They probably will be conscious of trying to win sym pahy for their side of the argument Maybe they will even let of the onookers get word in now and then.
 All that doesn't settle quarrels prevent them but 1t promises to help And will promote peace of mind m the family of nations Certainly it is better to hear what is be- ing said however bad than hear nothing and imagine the worsand then be surprised and uprepared when the worst actually happens.

Flying and Farming

It is beginning to appear that supposedly tive farmers among the most arminded of American citizens. Already considerable number of them Tn the West and Southwest their planes Surveys nd that many of them have plans that include sona airpane in their future farm equipment And three of largest national farm organizations have recently issued statements emphasizing the importance that they at tach to air transportation development.
 The National Grange recommends that air transport of and commodities be allowed to expand unhampered by laws regulations that would deny it the fullest and competition permissible in the transportation field The American Farm Bureau Federation points the factors of speed reduced refrigeration and constantly lowering rates with increased services indicating that everncreasg tonnages will be moved by air
 Speaking generally the National Council of Farm Cooperaves says We favor the preservation and mane of technoogca improvements and scientific advances in all modes of transportation and oppose. any imta tion through statutory other which tend efficiency and economy and reard development in trans portation"
 Farmers naturally concerned with the freight and operations of commercial aviation than with passenger travel They have direct stake in the mar kets and merchandising technques which expanded national air cargo service would bring Air cargo trans potentially important And it is encouraging to note that Americas oldest industry through of its largest organizations, has expressed its interest and support
 future association of flying and farming looks like a winning combination. It will speed and increase the ship ping of pershabes long distances It will bring more quicklyneeded supplies and equipment to outlying farms Perhaps most important it promises civilian to many air-trained and airmnded veterans well en poyment and continuing development in the aircraft indus try which in peacetime is still important in the machinery of our future defense.

Freedom from Fear By BH Cunningham

oi everybody. AS a general rule. it's been the leas qualified of the lot that have done the most popping off.
 Their secret is terrible. and their concern in many is undoubtedly sincere but 10 hear these generally unheard-ols suddenly cracking all over the place as freshly piped authorities upon world affairs and international possibilities adds only to he confusion and confusion breeds panic The group propagandizing for civilian rather than military con- trol within their rights and are making some sense. If the military department takes full charge of the matter. these will be locked in their labor atories working nothing but murder, and much scientific progress otherwise will have to be post poned, or maybe even abandoned.
 But, if no plan be worked out for controlling the bomb, and if everybody eventually manages to precedent for believing that nobody still would Here's one time fear would work on the positive side. Retaliation in kind. would be too swift and too terrible The precedent is that everybody had gas in this war and nobody dared use it
 It would serve world peace of mind better if the scientists and anybody else who knows the subjec. would explain some of the fine and beneficial things that will arrive with the real atomic age. These supposed to be so many and so splendid that ways of living as we know them will be completely lutionzed-and all for the better Some say that day is more than year away, others no further than 50. The qualified brethren would serve the harried herd of mankind better if they bore down some of that, and spent the rest of the time working m their laboratories trying to bring it to pass.
 If the public had some real enlightenment on he subject, it's mind might be easier Like prejudice fear stems from ignorance. It's the unknown the mysterious that frightens the timid Stir in some thing sinister and the result is pan!c. 10, Of nice things are in prospect from the cracking of thc atom things that figure to make human existence easier and a lot more fun What the world needs right now more chapters of that
 It'll help to remember what the headlines ln this paper were just year ago today. Our soldiers were dying in the of Germany for the fighting still was heavy, and while the victory seemed reason ably certain by then, still had no idea as to when it would end Tn the Pacific the Japs were burning Manila but the way still looked bitter and long out there Being out from under that is blessing im- measurable The rest can be handled Just what We afraid of? Let's quit shaking and shiyering turn the light and really get with our better sort of world

gotated between the C1O and Big Steel would exc pire in October. This would mean that next Sep- tember labor would come back for another wage increase Finally, Baruch knew that business had this very much on its mind therefore trying to get as much of price increase now as possible
 So Bernie got hold of his old friend Secretary of State Jimmy ByrneS. The two South Carolnans have not been very intimate of late but they staged a reconciliation dinner at the Shoreham Hotel the other day, and got back to a solid, friendly basis
 Following this, Byrnes sold President Truman the idea of reopenng negotiations for steel settlement provided both sides agreed that their contract be made for full year The President then called in Secretary vinson, who heartily approved the new formula.
 Two days later. the President summoned C1o President Phil Murray to the White House Baruch had taken the precaution of tipping off Murray in advance regarding the plan. However perhaps not knowing this or perhaps still feeling that Murray was devil with horns" Truman seemed jittery about getting the CIO leaders acceptance
 Without batting eye, however, Murray said Of course I'll go along, Mir President"
 The President then brought in Reconversion Di- rector John Snyder and told him of Murray's ac- ceptance of a one-year ratoum wage increases
 after the present steel increase is accepted Snyder was relieved, but also appeared nervous Finally he blurted out:
 i've taken the worst beating any man can take Mir Murray. I want you to know that everything I have done has been done on the Presidents orders and with his approval"
 Truman then said:
 Phil with your guarantee of one years peace, we can beat imitation. The only way do it is by full production at good wages"
 Veterans would do we'll not to hold their breath waiting for the Army to make good its promise
 Every war vet has heard the story at separation to supply them with surplus military vehicles. centers about how the scandals of the last war wouldn't be repeated and how he would be given priority over civilian dealers in purchasing surplus jeeps, staff cars, trucks etc.
 However, the plain fact is that there is very little of such equipment to be had. at least not a nf al nrogfN fNnrff fNn This is the biggest current headache of the War As sets Corporation, charged with the disposal of surplus

ton. Even before the Second World War the problem of the handicapped person was one that had yearly grown more serious. Few persons re- alize, for example. that there are some 350,00O persons permanently disabled by accident alone each year.
 Although there has been a great deal written about the outstanding rehabilitation job that is being done in military hospitals, it should be borne in mind that only relatively small segment of the handicapped civilian population is receiving any thing approXimating the required training The Connecticut Society for Crippled Children and Adults has pioneered in the development of community rehabilitation centers where handicapped individuals can be trained to earn their own living
 The rehabilitation workshops are located in Hartford. New Haven Bridgeport and Stamford and in no wise duplicate the services that are set up by the Federal Government. Indeed, some veterans have come to these workshops for further training in the use of artificial limbs or to work in sheltered workshops unti, their strength and dexterity are re- stored.
 Begun in l940. this Society has al- ready trained and restored to useful ness Hundreds of men. women and children. At present about 800 per- sons a year receive this specialized help. The Society is financed en- tirely by voluntary contributions and last year citizens Of Connecticut contributed more than $li8000 in i then Easter Seal Campaign for funds.
 There are many demands on the generosity of Connecticut citizens and although the Society is not pres ently seeking funds, the growing im- portance of this rehabilitation work | is fact that cannot be emphasized too strongly nor repeated to fre- | quently. The raVages of war anC the toll Of the machine age, as rep ! resented in mutilations and loss Of limbs. have together produced ar enormous economic problem. Eithe! these millions are to be restored tC usefulness through training by eX- pert technicians or they will be g continuing economic drag on tho rest of society. It is not. however merely a matter of dollars and cents. The spiritual values involved in the restoration of even one mar to self-supporting dignity are ines timable.

Juggling
By Peter EdSOn

but really pack lots of authority.
 For instance, take the preamble of the Act as passed. It says that Congress declares :" it is the continuing policy and responsibility of the federal government to k utilize all it's resources to promote maximum employment production
 That's boiling al lOO-word sentence down to 20 words to get at the gpts of it. But ask yourself what's the difference between maximum" employment and full" employment? Tweedledum and Tweedledee,
 Opponents Of the original bill also objected tc the declaration that 1t was the federal governments responsibility to provide such volume of expenditure may be needed to assure full employment. So that Tt is the continuing policy and responsibility Of the federal government to utilize all its resources to pros mote maximum employment" and so forth. What do you think the federal government does when 1t 'utllzeS all it's resourcesg2 You could spend trilon dollars, fight another war, or try to make the Mis- sissippi river run baekwArds under that phrase,
 Take the next section. The original draft called for national productoh and employment budget" to be prepared by the President. Critics said that was dangerous. So the budget" was stricken out and an economic report" was substituted. Whats the difference what you call lt the report covers the same ground that the budget does?
 In putting over this substitution and getting the House to accept the compromise. the hlls packers were equally smart In the House were some oa votes opposed to any kind Of full employment bill If they had been stirred up, oppofition might have grown and the bill might have been killed CongreSsmen Wright Patnan of Texas, Mprrays eo-sponsor in the House and John J. Cochran from TFumans state Of Missouri both spoke briefly on the floor, then asked leave to extend their remarks on the Record What they said on the floor was innocuous. Their full analysis Of what the bill does is given only in their extended remarks, which few people will ever read.

a victory for Truman"
 If Taft, congressmen Carter Manaseo of Ala bama and Win Wilmington of Mississippi want to think they scored a great victory by watering down the original draft of the bill. they can, But if any one will sit down and read the Full-pardon--the Employment Act as passed he will see for himself that it aceomplishes nearly everything the original bill set out to do That makes 1t definitely victory for Truman and for Sen. Jim Murray Of Montana with whom Truman sponsored the idea in the first place.
 What the opponents of full employment won was battle of wording, What they lost was the war of substance.
 The way this job was done is one for the book It took six meetings of the Conference Committee of senators and congressman to iron out differences between the Senate and House versions. Manasco and Wilmington sat tight on their watefed-down version They supported by Senators Taft, Buck of Delaware, Radcliffe of Maryland, It looked like deadlock So the other senators Barkley of Kentucky Murd0ck of Utah, Taylor of Idaho and Tobey of New Hampshire-suggested changes in language. In the changes 1t Is claimed the pro-senators got everything they wanted in words that look innocent enough

THERE OUGHTA BE A LAW
CNew York World Telegram

tNew York World Telegram
 When practically all the bushes, oi seven and one-half million New Workers can be tied up by strike of $500 tugboat operators
 When nearly three million people in the Philadelphia areas couldn't get about their peaceful pursuits because $500 transport workers were on strike
 When nearly two millian resi- dents of Pittsburg and suburbs went without enough electricity for % hours abecause 3400 power company employees quit work
 When things like that happen it's obvious something is wrong The rights of more than l2 million people are in conflict with the rights of l6,O0O. What the 16000 want is more pay for their work. That's a good American ambition. For the sake of argument, let's conceoe they are entitled to more pay.
 But do we have to have a civil war and disrupt the lives of F million just to settle pay-scale dis putes between l6,Oo0 workers and the few tugboat owners in New York, the transit management in Philadelphia. and the power com pany in Pittsburg? Should inno- cent people suffer cold in New York. or housewives in Pittsburgh be deprived of their washing machines and surgeons be forced to cancel operations?
 Even Sen. Jim Murray, of Mon- tana. who yields to no one 1T eagerness to please labor with 2 capital L. thinks something should be done. There oughta be a law. But Sen Murray isn't sure jus what kind of law.
 To provide for just such emer' gencies. there is a provision in thu Hatch -Ball-Burton bill. Sen. Mur' rays Committee of Education anc Labor has yet to give that bill { hearing. It provides for long pro- cedure of collective bargaining, me : diation. conciliation to avert a shut down. But if the showdown come .n disputes such as those in Nev York, Philadelphia and Pittsburgh the bill provideS for an inmediati and simple sol.lion. And the lift of community goes on.

they'd keep pushing long anybody would give Actually. however. the Russians were running bluff, so the British decided. They don't want 70 fight anybody, and aren't equipped to fight anybody They haven't the supplies the navy, the air force really to make any They're spread out all Europe with plenty of problems of occupation A mammoth section of their aion is still wrecked and useless Their people haven't much. They're in no shape to make war
 So Britain decided anyhow, and decided to step up and talk back. It be working It reminGs again of what Upton Close said at the San Fran cisco UNO conference Whatever that gentleman is isn't in his political philosophy, he has lived many long years in the Orient and he said:
 The Russian is a very peculiar sort of guy. Ii you meet him on the sidewalk he may push you aRd say: Get Of my way. But if you turn around, self, he'll grin. stick out his hand and say OK, we understand each other There's why can't be friends
 IL seems to be working out that way in London. Some measure of understanding and what begins 10 look like a pattern of working is being achieved The organization is proving it's mettle and achieving it's mission. There's really hope for it, Why kill it with fear?
 Part of all this and yet bigger than any Of it Is fear of the release Of atomic energy.
 Russia has now reported as having cracked the atom That doesn't mean she's learned how 10 make the bomb but our top scientists keep saying it's only 8 matter of time. Finally released from their air. tight military secrecy, many of our atomic scientists have rushed to the nearest set of musings and have done their pluperfect best only to scare the hell out
