ATOM BOMB SECRET:
Safe for 8 Years?

Semi official war department
view is that the United States will
possess the secret Of mass produc-
ton Of atom bombs for at least
eight years. There is no short cut
method of manufacturing fission-
able material, according to these
officers. Best estimates are that it
will take foreign nations several
years to make one successful bomb.
"For a number of years, perhaps
as many as to IS, only the
United States will possess atomic
bombs in significant quantities.
After this period, other nations will
possess atomic bombs in significant
quantities." reads joint statement.
All this presupposes that no inter-
national control agreement is in eff
feet, it is pointed out.

most vulnerable and should be

4-Ship structures should be
strengthened to Withstand the force

5-Advance bases should be built
far from our shores to detect and

and various dairy products at pres
ent than in prewar years. During the
prewar years, 1886 to 1910, the aver
age yearly tonnage of milk going
over rural roads was 81 ,287 1000. In
l945, 101.5 billion pounds of milk
were sold from farms, returning
$3,HO $3.50 1000 to our farmers, a good
percentage of their annual cash in
come.
The highway plays the major role
in the transportation of milk from
the. farm to the plant or dealer
and to the customer, Upham points
out. Forty-nine of our large cities
receive every drop of milk by high
way, as do $4,000 communities that
depend upon the highway for their
entire food supply. Almost 80 per
cent of the nations milk supply is
transported by truck.
Tank trucks have been used in
the east for many years for milk
transportation and a trend toward
this type of haulage is growing in
the West. Such haulage eliminates
the use Of milk cans and is quicker
and more economical.
"In all foods" Upham comment
ed in playing up the need for good
roads, Transportation costs figure
in the consumers bill. Condition
Of the road over which milk is
hauled is an important factor in
transportation costs" A study of 80
milk collection routes in Maine
showed that the routes averaged 50
miles, with two-fifths of the mileage
being unimproved. Travelling BY
truck over the mud roads was i'm
possible part of the year. It was
estimated that II roads on these
routes were entirely improved, the
average cost of collection would be
reduced two cents per hundred
weight Of milk and cream. Cash
savings in collection costs for. the
80 routes would total $500 yearly.

LABOR BILL:
Plenty of Teeth

A strike control bill that would
vigorously restrict labor. unions in
many ways has been approved by
the house Republican steering COM
mittee. Its most drastic provision,
perhaps, is a clause authorizing the
federal government to obtain in
functions for a 75-day period in in
dustries which affect public health
or safety. This apparently would
cover the telephone and other COM
munication industries, coal mining,
electric light and power companies,
railroads and possibly several other
fields.
The bill was prepared under di-
rection of Chairman Hartley (Rep.,
N. J.) of the house labor committee.
He told newsmen he hoped that the
bill would pass the house within
week. 1t probably faces struggle
in the senate, observers believe.
The injunction feature is designed
to give the government stronger
weapon against strikes imperiling
public safety and welfare. The
encouragement would be empow-
cred to seek a restraining order in
federal courts which would require
75-day ''cooling off" period. Dur
ing this "no-strike" time, govern
ment conciliators would attempt to
settle the dispute.
Other provisions would outlaw in
dustry-wide bargaining and ban the
closed shop. Unions would be re-
quired to keep dues low and to
elect officials regularly by secret
ballot. Communist d o m n d
unions would lose the recognition of
the National Labor Relations board.
Unfair labor practices would be in
vestigated and prosecuted by new
agency-the Office of Administra-
ton of the National Labor Relations
Act.

When somebody asked If Sullivan

There were number of other

We wondered why. Looking back
over the hundred conferences with

agreed, it required bit of digging
to get the news. Roosevelt usually
gave us something which, even if
1t wasn't news, had strong human
interest appeal. Even if it were only

was out the neighbor would give
back the hose or pay for 1t with
whatever he had to offer in return
Even the anti-Roosevelt papers
would have to report stories like
that, whether they agreed with the
idea behind them or not.

thing that managed to get his ideas
over and furnish us with the back
ground we needed to interpret the

We talked the Tooth press confer
ence over, lamenting that nothing
had come out of 1t which would clar-
ify the Greek-Turkish aid program.
We regretted that President Truman
hadn't injected little more Of him
self into the meeting. It would have
been to the advantage Of the news
folk, the program itself, the peo-
pie who were trying to get support
for it.

Mr.. Humans reticence. He had
been criticized early In his admins
tration for answering some ques-
tons too glibly. He had suffered
from spontaneous replies. As a re-
suit he Is now perhaps leaning
little too far backwards.
The White House press and radio
conference is a great institution. It
provides medium for bringing the
people and their government nearer
together than any other medium
which exists, except perhaps the rar-
er "fireside chat" Nothing like 1t
exists anywhere else in the world.
But it is not an easy thing to handle.
The correspondents are there to get
every scintilla of news which they
think will interest their readers and
listeners. The President is there to
reveal only what he thinks is his.
duty to release in the public good.
And he is also there to present his
side of all questions so that his ad-
ministration appears in the best
light.
President Roosevelt was a past
master at the art. He seldom re-
fused to answer question, for that
just meant mo news" He preferred
to feint and dodge In a manner
that produced some kind of an an
swer which would suit his ends.
President Truman has chosen to 60
into a clinch rather than feint or
risk a wild haymaker.

B--The early morning pedes-

men and a $4,000 fire.
1t all happened this way:
Peter Lancer, who lives at 92s
East Stafford St., was asleep and
his half-ton truck, parked out
side, caught fire. A passerby
noticed the blaze, called fire
headquarters and reported the
truck in front of 1927 East Stat
ford st.
Firemen checked, found there
was no such address, enlisted po-
lice help, then dispatched engine
Sc to the neighborhood to locate
the fire.
They didn't. But meantime the
passerby found his error, called
headquarters again and this time
told them the blaze was at 952
East Stafford.
Engine 10 hurried to the scene
and found the truck parked in
front of 925. The fire meanwhile
had gained considerable Roadway
and the awakened Lancer esti-
mated damage at $4,000.

and it is at this point that the
devout Christian and the devout
Jew differ, though they have the
Old Testament in common. The
devout Jew may regard Jesus
as a great teacher, a view now
more widely held than formerly,
but he looks still for the coming
of the Messiah and the fulfill
ment of the prophecies.
It is a difference of belief that
is not unimportant, but it should
not in any sense be an cccasion
of intolerance or unbrotherli-
ness. If the Jew lives up to all
that is best in the Old Tesla
ment, and the Christian up to
all that is best in the New, the
spirit of both Testaments would
make impossible the intolerance
and prejudice that have led to
so much suffering and tragedy.
It is in ideals of peace and good
will that Judaism and Christia-
nifty both find their highest ex-
preston.
