THE COST OF VICTORY

The cost of total victory is illustrated
by the fact that the taxpayers of the Unit.
ed States and Great Britain have spent
$916, 114,000 to feed the Germans in their
Zones since the end of the war.
Despite the amazing contribution to the
welfare of enemy peoples, after defeat,
there are signs that the Germans are at
tempting to blame the Allies, alleging that
the occupation is harmful to Germany
and that the victors are not doing all that
they could for the Teutons.
The burden of victory is one that can
not be overlooked by civilized power.
Naturally, it was not burden to Hitler
when he conquered adjacent peoples be-
cause the Nazi leader exhibited little of
the rudiments of civilization. He ruthless
ly took what he wanted for Germany and
left the populations to fare as best they
could.

PRESIDENT PASSES THE BUCK

The responsibility for a special session
of Congress rests wholly within the dis
erection of President Truman and there
seems to be no reason why he should leave
decision in the hands of four Congress
sional committees, expected to meet soon
in Washington.
The President will not be criticized
if he calls special session of Congress
on his own responsibility for the purposes
which he has stated, "aiding France and
Italy to survive this critical winter as free
and independent nations
At the present time wide differences
in public opinion. exist throughout the
Nation as to what ought to be done about
aid to Western Europe, and other inter-
national affairs and problems. Inasmuch
as President Truman is definitely in IA
vor of continuing the flow of American
relief to European countries there Is no
question but what it is up to him to de-
eide, without waiting for the views of
certain branches of the Congress, among
whose members there are wide differ
ences of opinion upon these issues.

The Admiral organized the Dunkerque

Japanese. He is an experienced seadog

When aircraft carry the bulk of the

"STOP FIRE--SAvE JOBS"

Last year. fire destroyed more than
quarter of a billion dollars worth of fac
tories, plants and stores, and killed hum
dreds of workers. AS part of it's aggressive
work to reduce that toll, the National
Board of Fire Underwriters has published
16-page booklet, entitled, "Stop Fire
Save Jobs" Copies may be obtained free
by writing to the Board at IS John ST.,
New York z, N. Y.
The booklet is directed at employers
and employees, both of whom have direct
personal interest in preventing industrial
fires. 1t covers, in a. simple, step-by-step
fashion, what every manager and every
worker should know if fire is to be pre-
vented--and if the proper action is to be
taken when the fire alarm sounds. It
deals with long list of common fire haz-
ards, such as smoking, wiring, inflam-
mable liquids, rubbish, storage rooms
machinery, static electricity, and so on. 1t
also goes into the principal features of
adequate fire protection, including extin-
guishers, fire hose, fire doors, sprinklers,
and drills BY personnel, It concludes with
valuable section on precisely what the
individual should do in case of fire.
Industrial fire prevention is vitality
important everywhere-and it is especial
ly important in the smaller towns and vii
lagos. Thousands of those towns depend on
one or two sizeable industries for the bulk
of their employment, tax revenue and
purchasing power. Should such a plant
burn, town employment and income
would drop disastrously and all other
business would feel the blow. Fire has
turned once-thriving communities into
ghost towns in the past. The National
Boards excellent booklet is designed to
prevent that in the future.
