17More Casualties
Ia Truce Violation
Reported by Dutch
BY the Assoeiated Press

BATAVIA, Java, Aug. 13.-A
Netherlands Army communique
said today that one Dutch SOL
dier was killed and 16 were
wounded yesterday in Indo-
nesian violations of a cease-fire
order in Java and Sumatra.
The communique made no men
ton of any fighting east of Ban
doeng, in Java, where the In
donesians yesterday said the Dutch
were engaged in a campaign to
seize strategic points on the rail-
way to the republican capital of
Jogjakarta.
An army spokesman intimated,
however, that if there was any fight
ing in that area it was to be con-
sidered by the Dutch in the nature
of mopping up operations and not
as a cease-f1re violation.
The communique said the Malang
front, which embraces a perimeter
of to 10 miles around the ruined
city in East Java, again had been
subjected to infiltration attempts,
and that Dutch patrols southwest of
Soerabaja were fired upon.
Another encounter between a
Dutch patrol and Indonesians was
reported to have taken place SOUTH
east OF Batoeradja, in South Su-
matra.
An official Netherlands source
noted this morning that while no
official declaration had yet been
made of the areas the Dutch Army
considers in its control, it was prob
able that the entire block of Java
from north-south line drawn from
Batavia eastward to the Cheribon
area would be declared occupied,
together with all of Java east of the
Soerabaja -Malang line. The Dutch
seized the main cities and roads in
these areas during the Is days Of
fighting, but have only a tenuous
hold on the hinterlands.

not boosted their prices, but the

Similar increases were announced
recently for the New England States

While the government was as
sured OF the powers it requested
to cope with the economic situation
the end of the parliamentary ses-
sion found 1t showing signs OF slow
ing down on the road to socialism
along which it has been leading
the nation.
Major steps have been taken
along that road since King George
vi opened the session last Novem-
ber IL. Railroads, long distance
motor transport, canals, electricity
supplies and real estate develop
ment have been brought under pub

The coal mines, the Bank of
England, atomic research and civil
aviation were nationalized during
the 1945-46 session-the first after
Labor came to power.
Perhaps the most historic action
of the session now ending was the

The Indonesian Republican cab
met voted today to protest to the
United Nations Security Council any
appearance before the Council of
delegation from the state of East
Indonesia, which the Republicans
charge is run by a puppet govern

belated official report reaching the
Republican Information Ministry
here indicates that the Dutch are
making efforts to separate East
Java from the Indonesian republic
and transform it into an indepen-

The agency said the Dutch CON-

August 4 to persuade Republican

Dutch occupation to work with the
Dutch in creating~a separate state

What do YOU want? Justice or privilege!
Do YOU want the patronage of charity or the
opportunity of equal treatment?
Do you want to be served first-or when
YOUR time comes? Do you want people to cat
er to YOU because they think you are inferior
or give YOU the same treatment they give their
equals?
Why do / bring this up? Because it is one
thing that ought to be put before every group
or bloc in this country-whether it be manu-
facturers' associations or labor unions, relg-
ious or racial minorities. The minute you
lobby for special privileges or advantages for
your own group you put yourself in the sub
ordinate class.
We, as a nation, hold that all men are
created equal. We make a cult of freedom
but we, as a nation or as individuals, are
not hypocrites enough to claim that all our
citizens take full advantage of their freedom.
Far too many Americans are still in slavery
to want, to disease, to ignorance. We can
not force freedom upon them-but we can
open the way to freedom for them by giving
them the opportunity and strength to scale
the heights.
The dignity of the individual is dependent
as much upon the way he takes hold of re-
sponsibilities as it does the way he seizes
his rights. Both are for all the people, not
for any one group or bloc or clique within
the nation. What we should fight for is
equality Of opportunity for all, special priv

RICH BONUSES FOR MANAGEMENT

Whenever a labor union suggests that a
big employer should contribute to some kind
of welfare fund to care for those OF his en-
ployes who "crack up" under the strain OF
modern production, the cry goes up that the
union is imposing an unfair burden on the
owners of the property.
But how about the managers of the prop
erty? They are employees, too. But as Big
Business is run in this country. they manage
the Notwithstanding how much the owners
shall get by way of dividends and how much
the managers, or executives, will receive IN
salaries, pensions, bonuses.
These managers are very generous with
themselves. For example, the directors OF
General Motors ask for an increased bonus
for executives. This bonus would start the
moment the company earned S1.4O a common
share. Therefore, II per cent of the profits
would go into the bonus fund. At present
the bonus starts at $1.97 a common share and
amounts to only 10 per cent of earnings.
The new scheme will give the big fell
low. an increase of IS, 700, 1000 in bonuses
during the coming year, if business keeps
up to present standards.
How many stockholders of General Motors
really had an opportunity to pass on this
proposition? We are willing to bet that not
more than one in 100. Stockholders are not
organized. All they are supposed to do is to
send in their proxies.
What would the daily papers say if a
labor union suggested for the worker any
thing like this rich bonus scheme for exec
utives?
X X \
Free enterprise has gone to the dogs in
America, what with the government going
into business to compete with the little fell
low. An honest strikebreaking outfit hasn't
got a chance anymore, when the government
steps in and does the job free. It's socialism,
that's what it is!

GARNER APPOINTED
DISTRIBUTOR FOR
TOPPINGS SAUSAGE

1t has been announced here that
Joe Garner has been appointed
distributor for Toppings sausage,
The famous country sausage is
manufactured by Scott Topping Of
Beaufort county, who started max
ing the food early in 1885. Since
that time the product has become
famous throughout North Carolina.
Topping has his own farm where
ne personally attends to the super
vision of the feeding of the hogs
and slaughter, but the majority
OF the meat used is imported from
western United States markets.
When he first started his bust.
ness the Beaufort man used his
own hogs, but when the market
increased he was forced to seek
meat from the western sections.
When he first started, the daily
consumption of meat averaged
about one pig a week and now an
average of II, ZOO to L 5000 pounds
each week is sold.
Garner said last night he had
two trucks distributing the sau-
sage in this section of the state.
