Protecting Fence Posts

It is estimated that 500 million
fence posts are installed each year
in the United States. A large share
of these posts are requirements of
posts that have failed because of rot
or termite attack. In view of the ris-
ing costs of lumber an efficient pre-
sentative offers welcome protection
for farm dollars spent on wood pro-
ducts. Much fence loss can be elm
mated by periodic inspection of ex-
listing fences. 1t is advisable to give
each post a push to discover failures
before an animal makes the discov-
cry and seriously damages the fences.
Damaged posts should be replaced
promptly.

Flyer Reactions Studied
Through X-Ray Equipment

Knowledge of how a filler reacts
physically to the strain when he
makes a crash landing or is cata-
pulled from a crippled plane is being
obtained on one of the more recent
uses of the millionth-of-a-second X
ray equipment.
Both army and navy medical lab
oratories are experimenting by max
ing sequence photographs to obtain
visual evidence of what happens'to a
pilots spine, heart and other organs
under such conditions.
In crash landings, a flier undergoes
a shock equivalent to 10 times that
suffered by a motorist if he could halt
his machine in one second from an
85-mile-an-hour speed. Body harness.
es cushion such d~eceleration blows,
but more knowledge of the action of
the body organs may be of value in
further solving the problem, accord
ing to DR.. Charles M. Slack, research
director of the Westinghouse lamp di-
vision, Bloomfield, N. ].
Advent of s%upersonic airplane
speed presents another difficulty. If
a pilot tried to climb out at such a
speed, he would be cut to ribbons by
the wind, so a mechanical device
fires him out" when a button is
pushed.
The high acceleration necessary to
get the pilot out without his striking
the plane causes another violent jerk
to his organs, 20 times as severe as
the normal pull Of gravity, DR.. Slack
notes.

1t Says Here
DEPRESSI0NS Are
DESIRABLE

ut is to be hoped that depressions
are never abolished, for they have
many desirable features. Those who
learn to ride the business cycle can
find as many advantages in depres-
sions as booms. That very name de-
pression' is inappropriate. 1t horribly
maligns those great periods so full of
splendid opportunities and human
benefits. Let us keep those periods
and abolish only the name. Unem-
ployment brings needed rest to mil
lions, whether they are ready for it
or not. There is a job to be done of
showing all America that the mis-
called 'depressions' offer as wide
range of rich opportunities and human
benefits as prosperity season or any
other part of the business cycle. -

VIOLATION PAYS !.

Safeway Stores, the huge chain food
operators, were found guilty of violat-
ing the anti trust laws over a period
of years, says the Industrial Union Re-
port of Philadelphia, April S, 194S.
Safeway did not contest the decision
The government contended Safeway
had undercut small local stores until
competitors were driven out of bust
ness. The fine was $4,000.
In 1916 Safeway made a net profit
after taxes of 81, 100000. After de-
Quoting the fine, this will leave only
100000.

Guest Editorial by JEROME G. LOCKE


Possibly not one citizen in hundred
knows or suspects the CHASTITY truth. Posi-
bility-yes probability-of World War III
has increased half way to the certainly point
during the past four weeks. A year ago in
formed and conservative sources estimated
war probability as one chance in five, within
five years. Then came the Truman Marshall
Interchangeable foreign policy of "get
tough with Russia" Odds started downward,
and sixty days ago the chance of conflict was
one in three, within three years.
Then came the "get tougher policy with
fleet of transport planes to ferry groceries
and few crumbs of political prestige into
Berlin. Bombers, jet planes, battle fleets
and compliments of us. fighting men were
hurried to the scene of action. 'It may be-
come necessary to blast open road to Ber
lin" With a handful of forces and a fanfare
of words we were going to make the Rus
slams back down. Now, without word of
comment, Russia has 100000 fighting men
on "maneuvers" just east of the jumping off
line. They are supported by five times as
many tanks, bombers, and jet planes as we
have in all Europe.
Without being able to inteligently ex-
plain why, it is undeniably true that great
majority of we American don't like the Rus
slams or the system under which they live.
However, that system is theirs, and under our
most cherished tenet of democracy none of
our business, in any country except our own.
AS it has a perfect right to do, Russia has
been perfecting, strengthening, and defend
ing its system for thirty years During all
this period even the most casual observer
must have noted two things. Russian Off
Gals and the public it governs never make
either threats or promises. Of vastly greater
Importance now, they never back down
a policy once set. Odds are now $3.50 on
war before snow flies.
Without chirp or a peep or a vocal
threat the Russians have gotten tough too.
There is ample evidence that they are fully
prepared to get even tougher. So, due to
boastfulness, faulty judgment, and too little
understanding of the other fellows view
point, here we are at the jumping off place
to oblivion. This statement is no stretched
Pigment of imagination. Our Society of Ma
tional Atomic Scientists-the boys who know

e'the next war is the end of civilization.
That statement has appeared in practically
every piece of publicity they have sent out
What shall we do now? Why, the SIM
pie, common sense, humane, and understand
able thing, Of course. There is no other
method this side of calamity. Forget the
"get tough policy. Throw thoughts of po-
litical prestige, for few temporary leaders,
out the window All of this kind of prestige
will neither stop nor help win the next war.
In a decent kindly, cooperative way, pre-
pare for conference with Russian leader
ship. Go there with no chips on our Shout
der The Russian leaders, as well as the
Russian people, are flesh and blood humans,
as we are. Moreover, they want war even
less than we. In thirty years with two major
wars and a revolution, they have sacrificed
two persons out of every family in their land.
They know vastly more about the horrors of
war than we do.
How can we bring about the kind of ne
gotiation that will stop this threat of war?
Simple enough. An election is coming. All
our present leaders are seeking votes. More
over, they are entitled to know that an over
whelming majority Of the people in this
country do not want war They are entitled
ing more kindly, conciliatory, and effective
policies in the interests of peace.
The pending life or death crisis is no
longer routine matter to be gropingly de-
cided by diplomats, acting without public
council. It is matter that involves the life
and welfare of every man, woman, and child
in this country. The common people can be
heard-they will be heard. All they need
do is pour the heat into Washington, DC,
and his Progressive party don't need it, and
the party of Southern Dixiecrats don't count
anyway NO WAR; Send kilograms, let
ters petitions, protests. Talk to your neigh
Dor, organize peace societies, marching clubs,
demonstrations, anything that will make your
will heard. Back our diplomats and nego-
tiators for a program of PEACE - NOT
WAR. At this moment the chance to pre-
serve civilization and each of the individuals
who make it up is an even bet This is no
time to sit around and yawn ourselves into
hell twenty years ahead of time.
