REYNOLDS URGES
PURE MILK FIGHT
Health Officer Says Bill
Now Before Legislature
Important To All

RALEIGH, March @-P-Dr.
Carl V. Reynolds, state health Of
ficer, said tonight that upon no
committee of the 1947 General as
sembly has there been imposed
a greater responsibility than that
which at present rests upon the
subcommittee studying the bill
calling for a statewide law to pro-
tect our people from mislabeled
and dangerous milk"
DR.. Reynolds added that "the
health, perhaps lives, of babies,
in many instances, rests in the
hand of these gentlemen. The kind
of milk the sick and aged in North
Carolina will drink in the future
is involved, as well as whether
the general public is to be given
the protection it's entitled to-"
The milk bill calling for state
wide legislation for protection
against mislabeled and dangerous
milk is now in the hands of a sub
committee Of the Senate committee
on public health.
DR.. Reynolds statement con-
tinued:
why wait two years Or any
length of time, to find out what
our needs are? We already know.
Investigations of the State Depart
ment of Agriculture and the grand
jury Of Mecklenburg county have
uncovered enough evidence to war
rent passage Of this law immedi-
ately.
THE milk problem can never
be handled in crazy-quilt fashion
with each county left free to pro-
tect the people or deferred to those
in the milk industry 10 put dol
lars above the health OF Jul chill
dren.
This is a statewide problem
just as highways, schools and other
essential services have come to
be recognized as statewide prob
lens. In fact, milk is a national
problem, in that it is transported
not only cross counties, but across
state and territory boundaries.
Laws are made for violators.
Those who are selling properly
tabled and otherwise safe milk
need fear no measure that the
legislator may see fit to enact.
Violators should be made to give
proper protection, just as the drug
gist is required to sell only those
drugs that are safe and just as
other food dealers are made to
keep their products free from adul-
iteration and misbranding."
DR.. Reynolds urged all North
Carolina citizens to contact their
legislative representatives and de-
mand action that will protect
your milk supply"
He concluded that "the U. S.
Public Health service, your State
Board of health, ande your State
Department of agriculture, and
others interested in the health and
welfare of all the people have
agreed that rules and regulations
should be set up requiring milk
to be graded and truthfully mark
ed. Pasteurization is also recon-
mended as an additional precau-
tion.n

tinues, the greatest pressure tor

cessions will probably come from
the Shipping industries. Motion
Pictures. Chemicals, Household

ricating. Reason; The desire OF the
unions to share the reputedly high
profits in these businesses.
Frankly. l am not too concerned
over this upheaval. l believe that
after union labor has secured real
power. it vii Hind that its employ
ers are better friends than its
labor leaders. Labor will not give
up collective bargaining and GER
tain other new privileges; but it
will listen more to the advice OF
it's resident employers than it ever
did before. This means that when
the liberal interests are faced with
full responsibilities, they become
much more conservative and de-
mand checks and b lances' for
their own protection.
Basic Principles
Bear in mind these truths. how
ever: Three fundamental economic
principles must be understood be-
fore we can realize any true mea-
sure of prosperity. These are: -

RY G w. BABSON

BABSON PARK. Fla, March %
The economic %well-being OF any
country is largely determined by
(a> the amount of food, homes'
clothing, recreation, etc. which is
produced by its people; and 10
the way these goods and services
are divided up among you and me
and our neighbors. If, therefore,
I'VE are to be prosperous in l947 we
must produce. We connot afford
tn lose another ITO, 900, 900 man
days through some 6,O27 strikes as
we did in 1916.
Strikes On The Wane
1t is my belief that the struggle
between management and
has already begun to slough OIL:
OF course, there will be c~ontlonued
demands for small wage increases.
Where industries cannot amor
further basic wage increases there
will probably be demands for GER
tain concessions as portal-to-por-
tai pay, paid sick-leave, increased
paid holidays, health and welfare
funds. etc.
, There is no question but that
some of these demands are legltl-
mate. The real trouble is that many
of them are simply camouflage to
cover up the real struggle between
the unions, oWner-management
and the government for the control
OF industry. Knowing this, both en-
ployers and employees ought to
muster every ounce of courage ana
common sense in order to negotl-
ate wisely, not only for their own
mutual benefit, but for int ultimate
nreservation of our American way
Of life.
Reasons For Change
While strikes will remain a
nuisance, a thorn in the flesh, If
O. will, of industry throughout
1e47. the fact remains that the
incidence of strikes has tumbled
@eppreciably since November July
v720; September SAL; November
At; December 228; January 19l).
/ attribute this change for the
better to:
(a) the fact that price controls
have been lifted, which allows a
greater latitude for bargaining;
Ob) the political complexion has
changed considerably in recent
months;
g a warning handwriting is
very clearly upon the wall for fu-
ture strikers. Messrs. Green, Lewis
and Murray all have sense enough
to know that under present condi-
tons continued b~elligerence and
aggression can only lead to public
hostility and a possible immediate
retaliation from the new Congress.
In the light of these trends l pre-
dict that 1947 - much To the W.
prise of many employers and en-
ployees alike - may see the feWest
critical labor disputes since 1899.
Wage Outlook
AS a result of this return to nor-
malcy there have ebeen during
December and January some wage
increases for workers in the Truck
ing, Clothing Stores, Cotton Tex
tiles, Printing, Painting, Plumb
ing, and Shipping industries. You
can expect that where unrest con-

PLANS UNDERWAY
FOR ARMY WEEK
Close Cooperation OF Arm
ed Service And Indus
try Stressed

The outstanding achievement of
American industry in supplying
the sinews of war that enabled the
army to smash through to victory
will be emphasized in the observ-
anceof Army Week April 6-12.
Wal department spokesman point
out that both the army and in
dustry, from experience, have
learned that the partnership that
worked so well during the war
must continue if the United States
is to carry out its mission of pre-
serving the peace and be ready to
meet any future contingency.
in recognition of this fact the
department says, Industry and
labor are joining with the services
and the general American popula-
ton In commemorating Army Week
this year in a period considered
most vital for the future of man
kind"
Monday, April 7, has been Of
flcially proclaimed as Army Day,
while the week of April 6-12 has
been designated as Army Week, To-
cal military authorities point out.
Meanwhile, they are going ahead
with plans for the Wilmington OBJ
~serVance.
Among the millions of veterans
and the heroic war dead who will
be honored are the thousands who
left their regular employment to
give their knowledge and drive to
the armed forces as the nation met
the enemy on battlefields around
the world.
Also an integral part of the Army
Week observance are those who
took their place, and war workers
who remained on the job to per-
form the miracle of production
that helped win the war.
Leaders are agreed that the
knowledge gained during the past
wal at 81 much cost and effort
must be developed in the postwar
period if the American people are
to be adequately prepared.
This, in the words of General of
the Army Eisenhower, can only be
accomplished through "close CO.
operation between industry and the
armed forces"

spective schools next fall.
This training center is not pri-
