about the price situation.
Senator Taft has made no moves
on the economic front since he
succeeded to Craftsmanship Of the
committee January 8. A chief
economist has only just been named.
Democrats Tuesday were pointing
out that In his economic report
handed Congress January 8 last,
the President had asked for inlme-
diate attention to the problem of
reducing prices. Senator Taft. who
also would like to be President,
has done nothing, they add.
Only Reaction to Moves.
Plans for such hearings represent
the only concrete reaction on the
hill TO the Presidents new moves
which were on the whole well re-
ceived. Nobody had heard Of any
legislation to be proposed; it was
suggested that the only possible
legislation would be another OPA,
which was out of the question.
A typical comment was this from
a Midwest Republican Senator:
what do I know about prices
Evening star., 1947-04-10

/ know my mall IS full Of COM
plants about them but what can
/ do? I'll be tickled to death II
somebody does something.
A Democrat close to the White
House suggested that the President
was trying to pull prices down to
q lower level which he could then
use as dixie against a new wave OF
wage demands. Many industry
wide contracts In basic industries
are due to expire soon, he pointed
out.
Production Already Achieved.
Democrats OF the Economic Re-
port Committee revealed that sew
eral weeks ago they had asked a
staff economist to assemble some
material on prices. Its trend is
that lowered prices can and must
come from industry's margin OF
profit. It states that the production
which was to have tun1bled prices
has already been largely achieved
with many factories bursting at the
seams.
This is an echo of material which
even conservative Senators, such as
George Of Georgia. have been in
serttng into the Congressional
Record. Senator George, ranking
member Of the Finance Committee,
has warned industry that its profits
were at dangerously high" levels.
Senator O'Mahoney, stanch anti
monopolist, reasserted his belief
Tuesday that 'the only thing that
can destroy the free enterprise sys-
tenn is its own greed. 1t must re-
strain itself from charging all the
traffic will bear OF 1t will bring the
whole house, down." He added:

Liverpool, or London even.
It would be strenuous trip
across the Atlantic, but it would be
worth 1t. Can you imagine any
sight more awe-inspiring than that
OF Dowager Queen Mary wearing
one OF her celebrated eight-layer
hats and one of those hand-n1e-
down dresses she inherited from
Queen Victoria, padding around
Buckingham Palace In her bare
feet? It would make the Tai Mal1al
by moonlight look like filing sta
ton by fiashlight.
Sedate Walk Doubted.
She wouldn't have, that sedate
walk, either. The feel OF that cold
marble on her regal tootsies would
spry her up considerably and might
even go 80 far as to give her sufi-
cient courage to talk with her
granddaughter, Princess Elizabeth
who, according to all reports, could
use little Of the graciousness ar1t
wisdom her grandmother has shown
throughout the years.
However, the sight Of thousands

little feet grow and grow dire and
dreadful things happen to them,
Little toes that once resembIed dew
drops take on the appearance OF
exhausted peanuts and the skin that
once was as smooth as a pheasant's
neck acquires the texture of the
deck Of the battleship Missouri.
This unhappy change. so I have
been told by members Of the weaker
sex, takes place because the aver
age woman is proud 6f large feet
and insists on wearing shoes many
sizes too large for her. As a result,
her feet slip and slide around in
her shoes and become toughened.
II the average woman wanted her
feet to appear small and dainty,
am told, and encased them In
shoes too small for her, this would
not happen,
School Days Recalled.
Going barefoot can be pure de-
light as every small-town youngster
will testify. How well I remember
pestering mamma each spring to
hurry the day when she would
decide that 1t was warm enough
for me to shed shoes and stock
ings and start a summer Of going
barefoot. I can still feel the cool
springy touch Of the dewy grass
on my feet when I'd light out for
school in the morning. And what a
Joy 1T was to scuffie along a dirt
road squirting the powdery dust
between your toes. And those stone
bruises on the heel-those bruises
you couldn't see but which made
you hop along on your toes.
Before the English women start
going barefoot, let me warn them
of the dangers Of stepping or
rakes. I still have four scars or
my right foot from stepping or
one and a bump on the back Of my
head from the handle flying up and
whacking me.

how fast and how far. If they come

The businessmen have nobody to
turn to but themselves. They can't
ask the Government to restore
price control; not after the cam
paign they put on last summer and
fall to have all controls removed. In
any case, establishing price controls
in peacetirne is a thing unheard OF
So they cannot ask the Government
to save them from themselves and
are seeking-at least, the leaders
among them-to work out their own
salvation.
One of New York's biggest retail
stores took advertising space last
week to appeal to manufacturers,
other retailers and the public for Co
operation In the effort to reduce
prices. The public's part would be to
refrain from buying anything 1t
didn't really need or, In any case,
to shop around before buying.
Retailers Are Warned.
About the same time members Of
the American Retail Federation, an
organization representing, directly
and indirectly, some 100000 retail
stores, were receiving stern warn
ing from their president, Walter
Morrow. The people, he said, ARE
showing an unwillingness to buy the
output of goods at present price
levels.'' Hardly an overstatement.
"What every one is looking for"
said Mr.. Morrow, 'is a way to min
irnize evil effects of price shake
down or readjustment Of the price
structure. A lot of people can be
hurt in the process OF doing even
that.
1.-The immediate need is to find a
way to shake out speculative fac
tors and inordinate profits In the
areas where they exist. What busi-
ness leaders are trying to do Is ac-
complish 1t by individual volun-
tary action.
Meantime, this business sttua-
tton, like 50 many other things,
appears to be playing into President
Truman's hand, politically. He did
put on q battle against removal Of
price controls. He did veto the first
bill by which Congress sought to
abolish control. He did warn that
what is happening would happen.
And now he can dramatize his po-
sition by having full cabinet con-
ference to consider what Is to be
done. ... ... ,

But, as said, there is little If

@. Does poison remain In the fangs

A. The Fish and Wildlife Service
says that the fangs Of a rattlesnake
may hold poison indefinitely after
the snake is killed. If the snake is
stepped on or otherwise Brought into
contact with a person in such way
as to cause pain. 1t should be con-
sidered dangerous. However, after

Free Elections

Ever pay any attention to your
newspaper reports of trouble en-
countered in the smaller European
nations concerning free elections?
The former satellites of Nazi Ger
many, and the present satellites Of
Soviet Russia, are finding the ideal
of elections incompatible with those
political doctrines that have been
foisted upon them. Such insane
foolishness as having the masses go
to the polls for honest and secret
voting, they say, is reserved for the
decadent demccracies.
These classics and enlightened
denizens under benevolent socialist
governments CHATS the picture
drawn up for consumption of peoples
still ruled by despotic capitalists) do
not of course value the power of the
vote. They do not know what a
workable factor of democracy the
vote is. Not having permitted the
will of the people to develop through
free speech, free press, and free
elections, the letters of ruling classes
are likely to remain.
Example, Britain
No nation can have free elections,
while at the same time it tries to
artificially discipline its labor force
and foster government management
of industry. Recent events in Brit
ain give point to this statement. It
was evident to me while in England
last August that the nation was in
for trouble. Absenteeism OF work.
ers in coal mines had risen to about
$50, and this was reduced to 1870
only in January, when the coal fam
inc was already a reality. Pro-
ductivity remained inexplainably
low.
Because there was lack of nation
al discipline, that is, the normal SELF
discipline common in Americas in
dustrial workers, coal was not COM
ing from the mines. Parliament was
afraid to discipline the miners to get
coal. Parliament feared results at
the next election. This explains why
the labor government calmly
watched the coal crisis develop, step
by step, fully aware that it was COM
ing.
NO Ruling Glasses
No country can promote govern
ment management of industry, as
England is trying to do, and main
tain discipline of labor along with
free elections. Stain has the first
two, in good measure, but he is not
troubled with elections. Free cleo
tons under present conditions in
Russia would have little meaning.
They are risk that the Soviet rul-
ing class could never assume.
We in America have found that
the best type of discipline comes
from incentives found in the ambi-
ton to get ahead. When man
knows he can better his lot and is
not afraid to try, the best kind of self
discipline is the result. The lowli-
est Immigrant can become a great
inventor. An assembly line worker
can plan to own the factory, and can
do it honestly Things like these
have happened too often to go un-
noticed.
If we want to keep high efficiency,
with the highest possible wages and
an increasing standard of living, we
must keep private ownership and
private management of the tools of
production. Holding to these things
in free market and cherishing the
freedoms of speech, assembly, and
press, we shall have little fear of
dictatorship. Free elections would
not permit it.

The eternal triangle" that is so
absolutely essential in jelly making,
likewise applies to the art Of max
ing successful Jams and MARINA
ladies'. It's still the same big three
sugar. pectin and fruit acid-in
the proper balance. There are spe-
cific rules and formulas to follow
that will take the gamble out of
jam or jelly making and assure you
of product that has the color
and delicate flavor of the ripe fruit.
Please, don't cook "by instinct when
you're putting up your homemade
spreads; for one thing, fruit is too
expensive to waste and, second,
every one is far too busy to spend
time making a product that turns
out a failure.
Jams are usually made from small
fruits, the entire fruit is cooked
with sugar until the right con-
sistency is reached. Marmalades.
as a rule, are made from pulpy
fruits or a combination Of fruits.
The pieces of pulp should be dis
tributed uniformly throughout the
clear, jellylike mixture. When nuts
or raisins are added we are in the
habit of calling the resulting mix
ture a conserve, although basically
they differ very little in the way
they are made.
So, now that sugar Is unrationed,
how about adding few jars OF each
of the following recipes to the col
lection on your pantry shelf?
GINGER-QUINCE JAM.
4 pounds ounces
8 cups sugar
u pound crystallized ginger
2 lemons
