To avoid confusion which
would result If both five and
ten pound sugar stamps re-
manned outstanding for an ex-
tended period, all retailers
should transfer or bank all
spare stamps SO as soon as pos
sible, OPA has announced.
It wa stated that an amend
ment to present regulations
will soon be issued, requiring
stamp SO to be transferred to
a supplier by the non-banking
retailer on or before April IS.
Under these provisions, retail
erS and wholesalers who main
tain ration bank accounts must
deposit stamp SO on or before
April Is.
Only one denomination of
stamp may be placed on the
gummed sheets used by retail
ers and wholesalers when trans
felring or banking their sugar
stamps. This requires, OPA said,
that dealers carefully separate
the stamps of five and ten
pound value during the period
when both may be transferred
to supplierS or deposited in ra-
ton banks. Gummed sheets
containing stamps of both five
and ten-pound value will not
be accepted by the ration banks.
This new move was made fol-
lowing OPA's announcement of
the increase in value of the
next sugar stamp from five 70
ten pounds after March 81.

Not for Federal EMPLOYEES

1t is not at all surprising that Federal
employees should have turned thumbs down
on Senator Langer's "call to action" in
connection with his efforts to organize
Nationwide nonpartisan league. De-
spite its name, this league would be any
thing but nonpartisan in the matter of
presidential campaigns, according to Mr..
Langer'S own explanation of the league s
objectives. 1t would Jump into the politi-
cal whirlpool with both feet, seeking to
dominate" or "control"-as the Senator
puts it-one or both major political parties,
with view to electing candidates of the
leagues own choosing.
This is obviously not proper field of
activity for Government employees or their
unions The Civil Service Commission is
Justified in reminding civil servants that
the Hatch Act and, in fact, civil service
regulations from the very earliest days
forbid such campaigning by Federal en-
ployes And the various aff1liates of the
AFL Government employees unions are
completely right in advising their members
against acceptance of Senator Langer's
invitation to join his misnamed political
organlzatio

HospituI Aid Deficit

The dilemma in which local hospitals
find themselves in seeking to serve patients
who cannot afford to pay illustrates the
magnitude OF the raising task con-
fronting the Community Chest Federation
this year. Already handling such patients
at loss, largely because of inflated hospi-
talization costs and increased need for aid,
the hospitals now learn that they must get
along next year on two hundred thousand
dollars less than the expected cost of serv-
ices to the poor. That is, unless the Chest
campaign should produce a surplus, in
which event the excess money will be made
available to the hospitals.
The hospitals had requested total of
$682,384 for 1948 as compared with the pres
ent disqualification fund of $464,800. The
Chest Federation, after careful study of its
financial outlook, has agreed to allocate
only $493, 1875 for 1948. This money will be
extended through the medium of the
Health Security Administration, which is
charged with distributing Chest funds
among the hospitals. The Federation ap-
proved an increase from five to seven and a
half dollars day in the disqualification
charge In recognition of the fact that the
present charges leave deficit which hos
pitals must absorb. In the end such losses
must be borne by paying patients. This
means that most paying patients, in effect,
are contributing twice to the hospitaliza-
ton fund-once through the Chest and
again when they pay their hospital bills.
This is manifestly unfair arrangement,
but there is no alternative except an ade-
quate disqualification fund And an ade-
quate disqualification fund for 194S is out of
the question unless the Chest goal should
be oversubscribed by at least two hundred
thousand dollars. That is not an impossi-
bility, Of course. It is a challenge that
should help to spur campaign planners and
workers to greater efforts this fall.

Testing All Britons

Not the least serious aspect of Britain's
economic plight is the added physical and
psychological strain on the people OF the
country. Ever since 1899 they have been
working hard and doing without. After
their heavy sacrifices in the war; when
they lived under the direct lash of the
Luftwaffe, buzz bombs and W. rockets, 1t
was only natural IT them to look forward
to brighter and more comfortable day
with the coming of victory. But their
hopes have been unfulflled. Indeed. al
though the fighting and dying have
stopped, their lot in other respects, far
from improving, has grown steadily worse
in the past two years Of uncertain peace.
Thus, under the Labor governments
drastic and far-reaching new program to
conserve dollars and increase export pro-
duction, the average Briton is being asked
to tighten his belt more than ever. Faced
with the prospect Of being limited even in
his choice of employment, he is told that
he must eat less and work harder after
long years of short rations and heavy
physical exertions. Imports are to be re-
duced, and that means that there will be
less clothing in land where clothes are
largely threadbare already; it means that
there will be less timber at time when
the housing need is acute; it means that
there will be less food for people whose
postwar weekly meat allotment has been
only II ounces a head, as against the
average Americans consumption of three
pounds.
Moreover, in prospect for Britons are
further cuts in those little personal "lux-
uries" that can do much to soften the
impact of shortages in such basic neces-
sites as decent place to live, clothes to
wear and food to eat. Under the Attlee
program for instance. the average motor
ist in England apparently is to have his
gasoline rations reduced from tiny nine
gallons q month to timer Ska mere
trickle. Similarly, because of the new
tax on foreign movies. it appears that
American producers are determined to stop
shipping Hollywood films to Britain-a de-
velopment shutting off from British mo-
ton picture theaters their greatest single
source of supply. If this takes full effect,
1t will deprive great numbers of English
men of their chief means Of entertain
ment-an escapist relief from the rigors
OF "austerity."
In human terms, all this further physi-
cal and psychological testing of the already
sorely tried British is bound to create
strains of a kind that few peoples in the
modern Western world have had to en-
dure. whether or not it will undermine
the political strength of the Labor govern
ment is speculation of minor Importance
compared to whether or not the mass of
Britons themselves will be able to come
out OF their present trouble with their
colors flying. AS shown at Dunkirk they
have the qualities to do so. The big oues-
tion Is whether the full force of those
qualities can be marshalled now among
tired people who have had to cope with
recurrent crises for almost a decade past.
Certainly, they deserve to win out, and
the United States-in its own interests
and the interests Of the free world-must
help them in every possible way to that
end.

Photographic House

Visitors to Philadelphia during the past
Few weeks may have noticed at 1912 Pine
street sign reading: Photographic House"
and wondered what it meant. The answer
to their question is q story well worth
telling. Its hero is young CT artist,
Raymond Seth by name He served as
head OF serigraph project in the Nays
Ordnance Division, and when the war was
over 1t occurred to him that it might be
good idea to establish a workshop for
men and women interested in etching,
Hthography, block printing. Numbers of
people, he knew from experience, needed
access to presses and other machinery and
equipment required for the making of
copper, steel, stone, wood and linoleum
illustrations.
Mr. Steth realized that the economic
part OF the problem might be solved by
cooperative enterprise He sought Gov
ernment loan, but "the authorities con-
sidered art more of a gamble than a
business" and he was driven back
to private sources of help. A personal
friend was enlisted in the effort, and
Photographic House now is "a going con-
cern." OF course, the venture may not
prosper. There is a chance that it is too
idealistic to survive in a professionally
pragmatic world. But its sponsors are
willing to "give 1t whirl," even If they
suffer in their pocketbooks in the end.
They have some excellent precedents in
both Europe and America to encourage
them to hope for success. William Morris,
Robert Louis Stevenson and Norman Bel
Geddes are but three Of the famous lovers
of beautiful printing who did not alto
gether fail. ="

increasing peril because he has failed to
harness his own passions as well, and
because things like the atom-in a world

needed Is some Professor Picard to

Ripping the Satellites

The State Departments latest protest
to Romania is noteworthy, not merely in
regard to that country but even more as
part OF what is obviously diplomatic pat
tern covering virtually all the Commu-
nist-dominated regimes in Soviet Russia S
Eastern European sphere.
This is not the first time the department
has called the attention of the present
regime In Romania to what our Govern
ment regards as violation of the peace
treaty negotiated with the United States.
which contains an undertaking for "the
assurance Of basic human rights to the
Romanian people," The department ex-
presses itself as seriously concerned" at
the continuing suppression of civil liberties.
eliminating in the arrest of Juliu Manu-,
leader of the National Peasant Party,
whose outstanding services for the Allied
cause during the war are incontestable.
This latest rap to Romania comedies
with similar diplomatic crackdowns on the
Communist regimes in Hungary and Bull
garia, and with actions of an economic
character, such as cancellation or with
drawal OF loans and credits to Hungary
and Poland
The State Departments policy is clearly
motivated by its determination to stress
Its increasing concern at the conduct of
Moscow's puppet regimes In pursuance
OF that policy, it registers emphatic pro-
tests regarding all breaches of interna-
tional commitments and treaty obliga-
tions. This serves to keep the record clear.
even though these protests may not mo-
mentarily bear tangible fruit.
In connection with these notes to Rus
sia's satellites, attention should be directed
to our current representations to the
commander Of the Soviet zone of Austria
regarding the seizure by Russian soldiers
OF the large oil refinery which, though
located in the Russian zone, is entirely
owned by American and British oil cor
porations. In this matter, the British are
taking parallel diplomatic action.
Thus, the consistency and scope of the
diplomatic pattern disclosed by the State
Department is logically maintained.

Harmless Explosive

Drastic restrictions which harbor and
public-safety authorities in many cities
here and abroad are putting on the han
ding of ammonium nitrate, the ordinarily
harmless ingredient of many commercial
fertilizers, are justified by what happened
at Texas City last April and, more recently,
at the French port of Brest. Explosions
of ships loaded with the fertilizer have
demonstrated beyond doubt that the
chemical can cause great loss of life and
property damage If not handled carefully.
Ammonium nitrate in its pure form Is an
important component of certain explo-
sives. The nitrate which wrecked much
of Texas City had been converted from
war to agricultural use. Chemists say the
product is as safe as sand If 1t Is not con-
taminated by certain other chemicals and
If 1t Is protected from intense heat. It is
considered completely harmless when used
as fertilizer ingredient. But in large
quantities the chemical presents hazards
which are of great concern to safety
officials, port authorities and, naturally,
the International Longshoremen's Asso-
citation. Longshoremen have been very re-
luctant to handle the chemical since
thirty-three of their fellow workers lost
their lives at Texas City.
The latest move to safeguard the public
from further nitrate explosions was made
last week in New York City by Fire Com
missioner Quayle. He has banned nitrate
cargoes from all piers and storage houses
within the city limits This follows new
regulations issued by the Coast Guard re-
garding care in shipping nitrate. The New
York action means that ships carrying the
fertilizer must unload at points considered
to be at safe distance from populated
areas-such as the wartime ammunition
