Kaip matote, toje knygoje
yra daug geru zodziu kurie bu-
vo kantriai ir kietai kartojami
per dvejus metus visose taikos
konferencijose, visuose gincuo-
Sc ir atsisaukimuose. Is ju sia-

CAB Favors Mail Rate
Rise for Big 5 Air|ines
By the Associoted Press

The Civil Aeronautics Board moved
yesterday for immediate payment
of temporary higher mail pay to the
five largest domestic airlines after
reporting two of them "in a critical
financial condition"
The board acted particularly on
behalf OF Transcontinental & West
ern Air and United Air Lines. How
ever, 1t extended the same treatment
to American, Eastern and Northwest
Airlines, which have similar oper-
ating and other economic charac-
teristics."
The new rates will be retroactive
to January / for all except Amer
ican, which had not asked for higher
mail pay. American viii get the
new rate effective April 7.
The temporary rate is based on a
new principle known as the block
system" Under this plan, payment
is at the rate of rs cents a ton-mile
(tons Of mail times distance carried
for the first $500 ton-miles carried
on a daily average. The rate de-
creases in scent steps to 40 cents
for mail amounting to an average
of 10000 ton-miles or more daily.
The old rate was fiat As cents
a ton-mile for all except Northwest,
which got so cents.

This Changing World
Confidential Reports to Congress Led
To Big Air Force Appropriation

international conditions we must
proceed with mass production Of
types which have proved themselves,
lest we be faced with a hopeless situ-
alton. Construction Of large num-
ber of B-29s and B-50s-a plane with
the same range as the B-29 but with
much heavier protection and better
armament-thus was approved.
Besides the necessity of having on
hand as many heavy bombers OF
World War II type as possible, 1t was
pointed out to Congress that our
aviation plants are not self-support-
ing. Unless orders are given now for
several thousand planes, which would
enable the aircraft industry to keep
its factories fully manned and to
conduct necessary research, the air.
craft companies might find 1t diffl-
cult to continue working on mill
tary aviation and might have to close
some of their more important de-
partments.
All these considerations were taken
into account when the Senate last
Thursday approved the new s3,233,-
100000 appropriation, which the
House already had voted, providing
tor an immediate start on the task
Of restoring American air power.

On the Other Hand
Congress Seen Failing to Discourage
Tendencies to Communism at Home

Very clearly they did not care to be
reminded Of the cost Of filing mar
ket basket these days. They didn't
wish to see the tangible evidence Of
what has happened since they re-
moved the OPA controls. A year ago
Mrs. Douglas had demonstrated that
in the first II months OF decontrol,
prices on these same articles had
risen so per cent-the basketful cost
ing SIS instead Of $40. The repre-
sentatives apparently feared her
second demonstration might be even
more embarrassing.
Actually it was not as bad as
they may have feared. Prices have
only advanced another II per cent,
or 81 per cent in all.
Most members know, Of course,
that that 81 per cent increase is
a serious matter in millions OF
homes; that food is something
families simply have to have. But
since they don't intend to do any
thing about the situation, the men,
bers don't wish to talk about 1t or
listen to anybody who talks about
1t.
It's matter Of principle. Most Of
the members don't believe In PAM
pering the poor; they believe it
destroys their character. Protect
ing the poor against exploitation
would be a form Of pampering, in
the minds Of these members. PAM
pering should be. reserved for those
rugged citizens who can stand it..
So q new tax law is enacted,
stepping up the take-home pay Of
those in the higher brackets by
thousands OF dollars as compared
with the dollars or cents benefit
to the people Of small income.
The natural gas corporations,
making more money than most
anybody, are given freedom to COL
lect many additional millions from
their customers, including those al
ready seriously worried about the
cost of living.
