powerful productive machine ever
devised"
The President warned, however,
that the economic situation was sus-
tanned by pent-up wartime consumer
demand, by heavy use of savings and
credit, and by huge excess of ex-
ports over imports.
These are temporary props, he said,
and as they weaken there must be
basic readjustments to complete the
transition to stable and high-level
peacetime economy. tts
Outlook Is Rosy
The tone of the Presidents special
mid-year economic report on the ma
TONS well-being was rosy. He de-
clared:
] I'VE have surpassed previous high
records of civilian production and are
now producing goods and services at
the rate of 225 billion dollars annu-
ally. az A.
Month by month there has been
talk of recession; month by month re-
ceSSion has failed to materialize.
Farm income has attained record
level. The financial position of BUSH
ness is strong.
Management and labor have CO.
operated in maintaining industrial
peace. Productivity is on the increase"
The Four C's
Prominently mentioned in the So
000-word report were four C's-corn,
coal, construction and commerce over
seas-named by Mr.. Truman as de-
velopments which mean that inflation-
airy problems might become stronger.

s u. S. AID: The Hope Of Europe

CECRETARY of Commerce
~ Averill Hartman, back from
a tour of Germany, France, Eng
land and Italy, said the Marshall
program of aid for Europe would
require prompt action by Con-
gress early next year if it becomes
effective.
Everywhere I went" he said, "the
Marshall proposal was the first thing
to give real hope to every nation that
it could get back on its feet"
Hartman said that if the program
could be worked out" he was con-
WINGED Europe's problems are solva-
BILE. He explained that "the working
OUT means agreement by European
nations to help themselves before
coming to this country for aid. He
described the Marshall plan as
"grub-staking proposition"
The key to revival of European in
dustry, he said, was greater coal pro-
duction in the Ruhr and elsewhere.
More food is the first need of German
miners to increase their output, Har-
riman said, after that, machinery.
British mines could be made more
productive by greater use of machin-
cry and opening of new coal veins. he
thought.
French Are Perturbed
Meanwhile France sought American
and British assurance that Germany's
industrial level would not be raised
so high that she would again become
a menace to world peace.
The French ambassador in WASH
ington, Henri Bonnet, declared that
France favored booming coal produc-
ton in the Ruhr but not for using it
in Germany to make German steel.
That road, he said, has led repeatedly
TO war, not only against France, but
every other nation.

Science Points Way
To Eradicating Rabies

More cases of rabies are reported
in the United States in summer than
in winter, not because the hot
weather has any effect on the dis
ease itself, but because people and
animals move about more freely
then. Dogs stray farther from
home, and people travel more ex-
tensively. The term dog days"
scientists of the department Of agri-
culture point out, is just one of sew
eral myths associated with rabies.
Modern science, which has dis
proved the rabies folklore, has
brought to light facts on which eff
fective control measures can be
based and has pointed the way to
the eradication of the disease in any
country. Several foreign countries
and our own Territory of Hawaii
have wiped out rabies within their
boundaries. Continental United
States, however, continues to suffer
from the comfortable disease, with
around 5000 cases a year. Some
times the number rises to l0,540, as
IN 1874, and sometimes it drops to
7.l65, as in 1912, but not yet has it
shown definite tapering off. In
lg45 the cases reported totaled 1868
Rabies is primarily a disease Of
dogs, though many other animals, in
GLIDING man, are susceptible to it.
Once it has been controlled in the
dog, now its chief disseminator,
It ceases to be of any great eco
nomic or public health Importance.
Control of rabies in the United
States lies within the authority of
the states. Aggressive control cam
paigns by some have eradicated the
from some areas.

Chopin and Rodgers Songs
Were Favorite Hits of rs

The two most popular composers
in the United States during 1945
we're Frederic Chopin and Richard

Till the End of Time" was
hailed as the outstanding hit of 1945,
with sales of more than a million
copies claimed as well as two mil
lion monograph recordings. The
song, which was derived from Cho-
pins "Polonaise in A-Flat," made

self, as originally composed, ranked
as No. Is, with All apparently in
exhaustible demand for its piano re-
eerdings.
Chopin's transcendent popularity
vas attributed to the motion pic
ture "A Song to Remember, the
stage musical "Polonaise, and the
publication of a number Of simpli-
fed versions of Chopin compositions.
The revival of I'm Always Chas-
ing Rainbows," adapted from Che
pins Fantasia Impromptu in c.
Sharp Minor" was another factor.
Naming State Fair" as "unques-
tionably the best film musical of
the year" the Britannica Book Of
the Year reports that the Rodgers
Hammerstein team set a new rec
ord when three of its songs-''It
Might AS Well Be Spring." That's
For Me" and IF I Loved You
appeared simultaneously on the Hit
Parade.

Repairing Sleeve

Usually one of the first parts Of
a mans suit to show wear is the
sleeve edge At first thought it may
seem impossible to remedy; but il
the sleeve has a good hem, there
is a way to repair IT, For slightly
frayed edges, rip out the hem and
remove any lint that is present.
Turn the hem to the right side and
run a stitching along the edge right
next to the frayed part. Then, with
small pointed scissors, cut open the
tuck. Carefully press open the
seam that is thus formed.
