RENT BOARDS

IF President Truman had appointed four active trade union
lists to the new fve-man National Labor Relations Board
the daily newspapers and the radio commentators would
have raised hue and from end of the land to the
other The Senate would have refused to confirm these
pontments and Mr. Truman would be attacked for trying
to turn over the Government to labor.
The Governors of states packing the rent
boards with real estate brokers' landlords their at
torneys and business frendsal who stand to gain
financially if rent controls can be killed.
Yet there is protest in the newspapers, mention
of this action by the radio commentators.
In democracy, the actions of public officials sup
posed to determined by whatever will be in the interest
of the majority Some Governors apparently willing
to rent controls poured down the drain if in doing they
can win the backing of small group of realtors.
Abe Lincoln used to fool of the peo-
pie of the me but not all of the people all of the time
These Governors may find out he right.

For instance, some readers

others want radical revision of

PREVALENT DISEASE

Much has been written about this malay
in the past and yet it is a strange disease IL
seems to affect only automobile drivers and
paralizes their left arm only.
1t leaves the left arm capable OF holdlng
the steering wheel and the fingers may stlll
clutch a cigarette but as for extending the
hand and arm through the door, apparently the
sufferers from this disease find it impossible.
For want of better name, we shall call
it left arm paralysis.
If YOU doubt the existence of this maladv'
lump in YOUR car after reading this observation
and watch the automobile drivers ahead OF
YOU. You will discover that almost 80 percent
of the car operators have fallen victim to II.
You will note that when the driver ahead Oh

IRISH POTATOES HERE
NOT BOUCHT BY GOVERNMENT

All over the country people have heard
the story of the government dumping of irish
potatoes in giant quantities just to keep the
farmer-price up to the $l.97 cents per hundred
which they deem necessary for the farmer to
make profit on his crop. Yet, in Tabor CITY
there has not been one bag of potatoes sold
to the government. The local market has sew
eral buyers and their numerous contacts with
private businesses throughout the country has
kept ready market for the potato crop.
One buyer here remarked this week, I'VE
wish we could get more potatoes right now. We
don't have to sell them to the government be-
cause we can sell them to people who want
them for useful purposes"
This it seems to US is noteworthy. 1t IS
almost proven fact now that potatoes could
have been consumed this year and the great
waste of dumping could have been avoided had
more time been spent on locating markets for
the produce.
From the beginning, it has seemed like sin
to dump edible produce, much of it first class,
while many peoples of the world go hungry.
There's a screw loose somewhere when a con-
dition like this exists
