Children Should
Have Priesthood
Physical Check

Children! It's time to go to
SCHOOL,"
In the next two weeks this
call will be heard in thousands
of homes all over Mississippi.
Parents will be anxious to have
their children ready in every way
for a good start on the years
work.
Now an urgent call from
health departments to parents:
Are your children ready in the
most important Way-in the best
possible physical condition? If
you have not seen to this, then
your children are badly handi-
capped at the beginning of their
school year. Have your children
had immunizations against pre-
ventable diseases? Have their
teeth been examined by dentists
and defects corrected?
Healthy, clean mouths without
decay in the teeth contribute to
good looks, good health and good
classroom work. AL this feeling
of well-being adds to a child's
sense of security, confidence and
good attitudes toward his asso-
ciates.
In the past 2 years the number
of children bringing dental certi-
ficates to school increased 81 per-
cent over the proceeding two
year period. Fifteen schools had
100 per cent in dental certificates.
Six others missed the 100 per
cent goal by just a few children,
some of the schools by only 2 or
3 children who failed to get dent
al corrections.
Parents, it is your responsible
ity to see that children have need
ed dental corrections. Even though
children may not fully realize
the value of a healthy mouth, it
is up to you to attend to this for
them. If you have not already
done so, take your children i'm
mediately to your dentist and
have all needed work done. Start
your children to school with dem
tai certificates.

PROSPERITY
By JAMES A. BROWNLOW
Sec'v-Treas. AFL Metal Trades Dept,

~ So
Compared with the rest of the world,
America is in pretty good shape. Labor
agrees with the report of President Truman's
Council of Economic Advisors that our coun-
try enjoys a great opportunity for lasting
prosperity and need not worry about a SER
ious depression in the immediate future.
Certainly. if a depression-or even a re-
cession-comes in 1947, it will be of our own
making. 1t does not have to happen. On
the contrary. if we make the most of our OPP
portunities. if management and labor settle
down to the Job of high production and stea-
dy production. the American people are going
to be a lot better off during the coming year.
The big obstacle to that desired objective
are those two "ifs.' For the past year or
more. the spokesman for business have been
complaining that government controls were
blocking their efforts to speed up postwar
production. Now that most Of the govern
ment controls have been lifted, some of these
industrial leaders have found a new alibi.
They are saying that the delays in production
are all the fault of labor. Shedding walrus
tears, they complain that if only strikes could
be abolished, it would be grand.
Such an attitude is a transparent attempt
on the part of employers to disclaim any re-
sponsibility for strikes. But the American
people will not be taken in by obvious decep-
lions of that sort. They know that, just as it
takes at least two to make a quarrel, there
are two sides to every industrial dispute. In
the final analysis, strikes are precipitated not
by unilateral action on the part of a union,
but by the employers NO
1t is about time that employers stopped
saying mo- from beginning to end in collec-
tive bargaining. Industrial peace can never
be attained if one party persists in exercising
veto powers. Instead of taking a negative
position, employers should come to the bar
gaining table prepared to listen to reason and
willing to agree to a reasonable compromise.
Compromise is no new idea. It's what
makes the world go round. Life is a series Of
compromises between the individual wants
and what he can get. The sam principle is
the basis of collective bargaining. Many
thousands Of employers, who sincerely en-
gage in collective bargaining, have found that
it pays dividends in uninterrupted production
and peace and harmony within the produc-
ton family of management and labor.
If the old guard of hitherto incompromis-
ing industrial leaders will agree to stop say
ing mo to organized labor and start trying
to find acceptable adjustments Of disputes,
fair to both sides, peacetime production will
break all records in 1947. Then prices can
be brought down to more reasonable levels.
Purchasing power will reach new highs and
prosperity can become an accomplished fact
instead of a vanishing dream.

MINERS STILL FACE THE OPERATORS

The fight against the miners union and
John l.. Lewis was pursued so vigorously thal
the capitalist press and the liberal common
tators. the former consciously. the latter per-
haps unconsciously. hardly mentioned the
role of that greedy gang Of profiteers known
as the coal operators. While the miners I'M
ion was engaged in a fight against govern
ment strikebreaking by injunction, so that the
whole struggle revolved about the relations
of government to a section of the working
class. beneath this outward appearance there
remains the fundamental struggle between
the miners and the coal operators.
The government originally took over the
mines when the union could not come to terms
with the operators. The operators refused
to grant a decent wage increase to the men,
refused to grant the unions demand for a
welfare fund. and refused to improve the
safety conditions in the mines. Then, the OPP
orators refused to accept the agreement
reached between the government and the I'M
ion. The government took over the mines un-
til such a time that the mines could be turned
back to the mine owners.
In the meantime. the operators. for doing
nothing. continued to get the profits from the
back-breaking toll of the coal miners. During
the most crucial period of the present nego-
tlatlOnS, the operators. hoping lnal the gov
eminent would smash the power of the union,
still refused to come to any agreement with
it. But for all Of that. they continued to get
the gravy from coal mining. So, in effect,
they lost nothing.
The daily yellow press, however, had little
or nothing to say about the operators. The
liberal commentators who have been yelling
loudest at Lewis. also had nothing to say
about the coal operators. Suddenly the whole
issue became one of the Sovereign rights of
the government to rule" Actually what
they were SAYING was that the whole issue
was whether the government had the right
to act as a strikebreaking agency, using in
junction as the means Of accomplishing that
aim. The labor movement, every section of
