A Lesson In Disaster

A AHORROR-NUMBED nation gropes for words to ex press it's reaction to the blast which killed uncounted hundreds of persons in the little Gulf Coast industrial town of Texas City We try to look beyond the sensation to find the lesson for like to believe there must be mite of recompense for this death and suffering.
 We have seen close to home, the type of devastation which during the war appeared to only remote statistic counting the dead of London Rotterdam, War saw Berlin Leingrad Nagasaki We shudder for the hundreds who died in Texas City, where were aloof from the thousands who died under the bombs of time.
 It is the coseness of the Texas City disaster which shocks us-and perhaps it is mark too of regain ing peacetme sense of the worth of human life.
 There are some minor immediate lessons in the cat tledumb curiosity which draws people to danger like the 800 Texas City people who permitted to stand docks to watch the burning of eXplosiye-lader ship It is warning for city authorities everywhere to tighten their precautions Undoubtedly too it will lead cities to reexamne their preparedness for disaster
 Newspaper correspondents like Hal Boyle of Associ- ated Press who have the effects of aerial lombard compare the Texas devastation to the scenes of wartime. Boyle called it preview of the chaos which atomic warfare might bring to this country.
 We have had sobering view of what might do in industrial America. It should strengthen will to peace but more it should lead to serious planning to cope with the civil chaos which could bring.

"Newburyport Plan'' Spreading

NEWBURYPORT, Mass. (P) - This seaport community's efforts to smash the props under high prices appeared to be spreading rapidly across the country today.
 In response to Newburyport's appeal to join in patriotic" cam paign to knock down prices 10 per cent, authorities dotting the nation from Vermont to California re- ported they would put into effect or advocate program similar to that undertaken here two days ago.
 Under the "Newburyport Plan" nearly 100 per cent of the retail merchants slashed prices flat 10 per cent in l0-day experiment. In the first two days sales boomed as high as 60 per cent above nor -'al, and the major weekend shop inc days were expected to rocket the figure.

Boys And Girls Week. I'm Nome

Boys and Girls Week" origin ated as. Boys Week" through the Rotary Club of New York City in 1920. Rotary Clubs in four addi- tional cities sponsored local ob- servances the following year. The movement spread rapidly-in 1922 over 200 cities reported celebra- tions, in 1923 some 600 cities, and in 1926 the celebration of the week had become general throughout the States and Canada.
 Through the influence of Rotary International, other countries be- came interested in the movement, so that by 1927 observances were reported from many parts of the world. Before the war, participa- tion in the week was practically worldwide.
 Such great public interest was evidenced in Boys Week in the United States that a committee, known as the National Boys and
