They Average Up
A government report on hous

A government report on housing,
schooling, sanitation and other living
problems in coal towns has recently
been made public. Some sections of
the report describe slum conditions and
tumble-down homes - though it was
stated that "any assertions which had
been made that inferior standards are
general in the coal industry are dis
puted by the survey"
1t is obviously fallacious, as a Ma
tional Coal Association release observ-
es, to attempt to reduce mining towns
to any common denominator. They
run the gamut from poor to good to
very fine. Some of them have made
quate water and street systems-and
SO do hundreds of other small towns
in every state in the union. Some of
the residential areas are depressingly
bad-as are the slums which exist in
every city.
The most significant thing is the
very great progress which has been
The Wilmington morning star., 1947-05-26

made in lettering conditions. Not
more than a third of the coal miners
live in company-owned houses, and the
number is constantly diminishing.
More than IS per cent are covered by
prepaid medical care or hospital insur-
ance or both as compared with Is
per cent for tie country as a whole.
And schooling is generally of a high
quality.
The coal miners are the highest
paid workers in any comparable Amer
lean industry. The coal towns, with
exceptions, reflect that condition. The
exceptions are growing fewer.

Chorus Aids Church Fund

After the splendid performance of
the Atlantic Coast Lines Male Chorus
last week, the Star sought to learn
how much money vas added to the
Grace church rebuilding fund, but
without immediate success. Tickets
had been sold by so many groups and
individuals time was required for as
sembling the revenue and making a
final count.
Now we learn that the gross receipts
were $1,023. The federal tax amount
ed to $109.48. With this paid, the
church fund was enriched by $913.52,
no other expense having been con-
tracted by the chorus. There were X
penses, of course, but generous citizens
and firms contributed the money to
meet them.
We know of no more creditable pro-
ject undertaken for a worthy cause
than this concert. Because the chorus
made such fine progress in limited
time - there were but six rehearsals
it is to be urged to continue, even
throughout the summer, with reason
able assurance that it can become an
outstanding musical group in the state.
Certainly the Atlantic Coast Line
company could not adopt a better means
of bringing additional credit to it's sys-
tenn than by maintaining the chorus at
such small cost as the investment would
involve.
The Wilmington morning star., 1947-05-26
Law Needed

Americas record is stained by no
worse blot than the lynching of any
person., whatever his crime may be.
The law provides punishment for
criminals. When the law is set aside
there is nothing left but anarchy.
When a mob takes the law into it's
own hands, it is guilty of a worse crime
than it's victim.
When masked men invaded the
county Jail at Jackson and took away
a Negro suspected of attempted as
sault on a white woman they defied the
law.
Even if it be true that the Negro
escaped from the mob and is in hiding,
the mob's guilt is unquestioned. Arm
ed entry of a prison is a major crime
in itself. If, instead of destroying the
life of the suspect, it a. the unin-
territorial instrument of his escape, the
crime is not lessened by that fact. 1t is
hardly to be supposed that the mob
seized the Negro with the intention of
freeing him. Rather, it is to be pre-
sumed it went into action for the sole
purpose of lynching him.
When a jury in South Carolina ex-
honorated twenty-eight men, some of
whom had admitted completely in a
lynching, it gave encouragement to
other mobs. If such a crime is con-
doned in South Carolina, similarly
minded men elsewhere would argue,
why should it bring punishment in a
neighbor state? In answer, Governor
Cherry has said: North Carolina will
not tolerate lynchings or mob v%iolnece."
1t is TO- up to North Carolina peace
officers to prove that Governor Cherry
was not merely talking when he ut
tered this statement, by using every
means to capture the masked men who
invaded the Jackson jail; and when
they are brought to trial it will be up
to the court to see that just punish
ment is melted out.
This, of course, would be the way
to close the Jackson case. To prevent
repetitlons, anywhere, it is obvious
that an anti-lynch law is needed.

FAMILIAR THINGS)
THINGS THAT WERE ONCE
THROWN AWAY

Years ago, in the factories
where tomatoes were canned,
most of the juice was thrown
away, as only a small portion
could be put into the cans with
the tomatoes. Then someone dis
covered that tomatoes contain Wit
amin c, which is necessary in our
diet; and it was decided that the
valuable juice should be bottled.
Other examples of by products
can be found at your table and,
in fact, everywhere about you.
Milk, for instance, has several
by-products. After the butter-fat
has been removed, one of the
principal substances left in the
skim milk is casein. Casein has
been adapted commercially in a
number of interesting ways. One
market is the paper mill, where
it is made into a coating or finish
to give a glossy surface to some
kinds of paper. 1t serves also as
a finish for leather and for ce--
tain textiles.
Casein has strong adhesive
properties a n d., when made into
glue or cement. is utilized by cab
inet-makers and wood-workers for
gluing wood. Parts of ships and
airplanes r stuck together with
it. Casein buttons and casein paints
are well known. Cloth resembling
wool, and warm, is made from
casein; and felt hats are also
manufactured from it.

Meat For Thought

There is meat for thought in the
belief of livestock commission men that
because of a shortage of hogs and
sheep, the strong financial position of
farmers, the high purchasing power
of city jewellers, income taxes, the
weather and government meddling,
there will be no substantial reduction
in the price of our favorite dish
for a year at least. By way of paren-
thesis, it may be said that the current
high prices could be put up with if the
meat offered for sale were we. cured,
instead of being mostly too tough to
chew.
The story would be different, says
one commission merchant, if six mil
lion men should lose their jobs-which
heaven forbid-but as long as wages
and other income remain high, the peo-
pie will have their meat, and pay the
price, because they like it.
And do we like it! What wouldn't
we give right now for a thick, juicy
tenderloin that fairly melts in the
mouth! We used to get them, but that
was long before Leon Henderson told
butchers how they must conduct their
h11c1nncc nv oIca With Ho-,Ior11x,3
advent nobody, least of all retail meat
dispensers, have given a hang how they
cut the cuts We like best.
There is no way, apparently, for
us to change the situation, especially
as we are content to buy what We can
get at whatever price. It is very diff
ferent from what it was in 1920, when
growers dumped meat animals on the
market at any price they could get.
In 1920 the farmers owed $780,
100000 in notes and 100000, 900 in
mortgages. Now they W only 49,
600, 900, 900 in short term notes and S.
O0O,OOO,O0O in mortgages. AS long as
they can get the prevailing prices for
their livestock they can disregard their
obligations at the banks without turn
ing a hair, and on time too.
So it really seems foolish to dream
of Is cent round steak or 80 cent bacon,
at least until we strike a closer bal
ance between income and expenditures
But the professors might at least give
us a little well cured meat for ou4
money.

Airline Subsidy Bills

1T was considered in the national
interest to keep this route going
against foreign competition.
5. A foreign subsidy offset sub
sidy. L a foreign government paid
its airline a subsidy, the U. S.
government would be required to
match the foreign subsidy so as to
keep the U. S. flag line in business
Oh al even basis. This could lead
TO an international subsidy race.
6. A national defense feature
subsidy. This could cover a num-
Der of things: Building of airports
at strategic locations for the
peacetime use of the U. S. flag
line, maintaining a fleet of trans
port planes which could be operat-
ed by the U. S. flag line as a con
tract carrier for the armed SER
vices.
Z. International mail pay sub
sidy. The U. S. government wold
be required to pay for carriage
OF the mail, in addition to guaran-
teeing the U. S. flag line against
other losses. If over a 1O-year
period the U. S. flag line had aver
aged more than 10 per cent profit,
it would repay one-haf OF the ex-
cess over 10 per cent to the gov
eminent.
L, summing up his testimony on
this proposed legislation, Chairman
Lands declared that cit goes even
further than the establishment OF
a monopoly in destroying all in
centives; it even destroys the
profit motive itself . The CARL
er can operate almost without re-
gard to it success in keeping costs
low and in attra citing patronage.
The management will be little
concerned with actual airline OPP
erations: it's main function will be
to- see that the maximum take is
developed from the public treas
ury."
The Civil Aeronautics Boards
contention today is that its present
policy of regulated competition.
called for by Civil Aeronautlcs
Act of 1888, is working and that
there is enough traffic in sight to
enable all U. S. competing air
lines to show a profit without all
the heavy subsidies considered
necessary for the proposed single,
''chosen instrument" carrier.
Furthermore, CAB contends that
if in the future it is found there
is not enough traffic on, say the
North Atlantic route to support
three competing carriers, opera
ton certificates can be amended
SO that the airlines can reap a
fair return on their investment.
All certificates for North At
lantic operations were granted
for six years from 1916. That is
considered a fair period in which
to test out the regulated competi-
ton, unsubsidized policy. If by
1852 it is found to be unavoidable,
then win be the time to consider
a change in policy.
