Hollywood Genius
Gone, Says Rene Clair

French motion picture producer,
said here that Hollywood has lost
some of the sparkling genius that
made history 25 years ago." and
now was making pictures for
children"
Clair told the American Club of
Paris that the American motion
picture industry was like a self
made man who has made such a
success that he can buy caviar and
champagne, but now has stomach
troubles"
Clair has directed a number of
pictures in America.
He appealed to Hollywood pro-
ducers to associate themselves
with foreign producers. 81 don't
think Hollywood should stay in

SCHOOL BLDG. COMMISSION
Continued from 1irst page

Because of the great increase in
enrolment anticipated as a result
of the wartime birth rate, it is the
plan of the commission to begin to
build as soon as possible. Another
portable building will be put i'll use
this fall. There is reason to believe
that third will lie necessary in the
fall of 1948. The plans provide for
a separate elementary school
joined to the high school by a cor
ridor which will give access to an
auditorium and a cafeteria avail
able for the use of the elementary
and high schools. 1t is the intention
to make the plans available for
public inspection as soon as tho
sketches are completed.

THAT'S THAT

President Truman is still plead ing for lower prices. But he does not say what prices he wants re- duced. And he makes it very plan he isn't for cutting all prices. He is against tax reduction. Taxes are prices. They are what people pay for government. And they are just as much a part of the high cost of living as are prices paid for food, clothing, etc.
 From the fact that President Truman has said not a word against the continuous clamor of labor unions for higher wages, it is a fair deduction that he is not against wage boosts. Wages are the price of labor and they are an important factor in the prices the

public has to pay for everything it buys. But the President appar- ently doesn't consider it political ly expedient to urge that unions call halt on their price boosting. The $l-a-day wage increase the CIO has just wangled from the steel industry means that the union gets steel price reduction which otherwise would have gone to consumers. If the steel compan- ies hadn't granted a wage in crease, they could have granted a steel price reduction.

Canada's Place, In The Americas
Anchorage Daily TimeS)

A REJECTION of Canada's new stature as an inde- pendent nation is found in Senator Vandenbergs sug- geStion to the Pen American Union that the Dominion be invited to join that body.
 MT. Vandenberg's suggestion recalls statement by L. B. Pearson, Canadian Undersecreary of State for External Affairs in speech last month. Commenting his countrys absence from the Union MT. Pearson said, 'The short answer is that we have never been asked"
 That may sound more like snub than is actually tho Until the began few Canadians had any n- teres in Latin America or felt themselves bound to the southern republics by any hemiSpherlc tie Canadas trade with Latin America of trfling importance
 Likewise Canadians sense of their country an in dependent world power slow to develop. Until af ter World War Canada virtually colony. Great Britain handled her foreign affairs until 1927 when the Canadian government sent it's first diplomatic missions abroad. Canadas first minister to Latin American country not appointed until 1941
 For many years there also opposition in the U S. government to Canada's membership in the Pan Amer ican Unon To give Canada place in the Union, it reasoned, would be to give Britain voice in the west hemisphere.
 The recent war, of course, changed all that Com petey shut off from her preWar European markets and almost isolated from Britain Canada turned her eyes toward the south. She discovered Latin America and discovered in turn Her industry her scientists and her fighting men contributed largely to victory
 Defensvely, too Canada has gained new hemispher- ic importance. Her large uranium deposits linked with the development of atomic energy. Opening of Arctic air puts her in front line of approach to the Americas
 As democracy Canada offers excellent example of orderly popular government The peaceful relations of the Englsh-speaking majority with large minority group of different language and culture model of good neghborliness which other American countries might observe.
 In view of all this hardly possible that the Unions governing board can ignore MT. Vandenbergs plea for total New World unity" in which "our con- tinental brotherhood is complete from the Arctic Circle to Cape Horn"
 It equally unlikely that Canada conscious of hern role Of in this interdependent world would refuse invitation

lease was war policy. IL should have been terminated when hos tilities ended. For this country to spend 400 million dollars helping Greece and Turkey resist Russian aggression and keep on sending .l:llions of dollars of supplies to Russia under lend-leaSe doesn't make sense.
 Organized labor, civil service
 rganizations and teacher groups nave assailed the new law enact ei m New York state prohibiting strikes by public employees but Governor Dewey says he isn't con ce.ned over threats of political re- prisals. His political courage is commendable. Strikes against gov crnment are intolerable. As Dewey haS pointed out, walkoutS of pub lie employees are "one of the most useful devices" of the Commun- istS.
 President Truman wants every body else to cut their prices, but he won't cut the only price over which he has any control. He is opposing any reduction in federal taxes. Those taxes are the price people pay for national govern lent. And that is the price which hos increased the most.
 Tt is an axiom of good econo- mics and good business that in tines of great inflationary pres sures, taxes should not be reduc- ed" President Truman said at the Associated Press luncheon. Any surplus which the treasury can se- cure should be applied to reduc ton of the federal debt. When we are over the hump of imitation, tax reduction will be feasible and proper" That may be all right in theory. But the American people would be gullible indeed to think that is the way it would work out. They know better than to expect good economics and good business i from the national administration.
 The importance of debt reduc- ! ton cannot be oVeremphaslZed But if the federal government is to be allowed to keep on going i hog wild in spending, what 1t will | have left over for debt reduction won't make a dent in the 26O- billion-dollar national debt. Both 1 debt and taxes can be cut, and taxes still will be painfully high. And if American taxpayers have learned anything from their ex- ! perience under the national ad- ! ministrations of the last fourteen years, it is that taxes, instead of going down when prices drop, keep on rising.
 In most cases. the Presidents as Sertion that "the government pol icy of supporting farm prices is
 not the cause of prevailing high
 food prices" cannot be challenged.
 But what about potatoes? Spud
 prices, so far as housewives were concerned, remained sky high last year in spite of overproduction
 and that was because the govern
 ment was buying up and dumping
 millions of bushels of surplus po-
 tatoes.
 While the President keeps call
 ing for a cut in prices, you can
 bet your bottom dollar the last
