 Labor Department "eXperts"-we quote the word adv.sedv-have come up with some outandish figures: The average husband they say. spends more money on clothes every year than his wife does.
 This finding is preposterous on it's face and be- comes worse on the breakdown The average husband, says the L. D. gets one heavy wool suit every two years one light wool suit every three years, five shirts and two pairs of shoes annually. CWould the L. D. like to finger the fabric in our six-year- old heavy WOOL suit? Would it like to mend the frayng buttonhoes in our eight-year- old topcoat?) The wife on the other hand is supposed to buy only one heavy wool coat every four years, four dresses and three pairs of shoes annually.
 It is obvious that the department has fallen into feminine trap. Undoubtedly the samplers of cloth inc purchases went around and asked housewives what was what That's very pretty dress" said the sampler This old thing said the housewife. Why Iv e had this for three years. tNo woman statistics prove has had dress for less than three years even if she bought it yesterday) Then the sampler dutifulv wrote in his notebook "Dress-three years old" No mention of bouses of aprons, of dickies of we'll underthings The whole business is a farce from the start
 Undoubtedly the Labor Department fact finders are preening themselves their results Men spend SIPS to $198 year clothes they say. Women spend only S111 to $139 The whole thing has been checked and rechecked, analysed and reanalyzed
 Remember Dr. Gallup, gentlemen? Remember Elmo Roper? Remember good old Crossey9 Huh?

NOT ENOUGH TEACHERS

Shortages in general not as numerous or as acute as they were at the end of the But in the field of school teachers shortage remains un fortunate reality familiar fact that the birth zoomed upward just before the war and continued high through the
 The resut-one result, better said-is to thrust a greatly increased burden the schools It will con- elementary and then grammar grades. The output Of teachers has kept pace and there is no sign that a solution is the way.
 Surveying the problem for the New Yok Times, Benjamin Fine reports that entering classes of l75 teachers colleges throughout the country smaller than last year by about per cent. And the drop In young persons planning to enter elementary teaching still is greater The recruitment to teaching in the lower grades is tagging badly. And that is doubly unfortunate because that is where the pinch will come in the next few years
 Attendance at teachers colleges is misleading. because so many young people have enrolled in them only after failing be admitted to liberal arts col leges They want some education, and they are willing to take it in teachers college if necessary. But they have no intention of becoming teachers.
 One partial solution may be to raise salaries in the elementary field, based on experience and ability, not on the grade taught
 The same soaring birth rate that creates this teacher shortage in the lower grades has given rise to other problems notably classroom space and build ings. That however. is problem for taxpayers such.

TRUMAN'S MILITARY PALS

Conflict between the U. $. mili- tary and the State Department is of course, nothing new And the .-bove illustrates what has happen ed to U. s. foreign policy time and again ever since President Truman took office. In Germany, in China, in Argentina and in Spain, the President has let the military influence, sometimes dom- mate. his foreign policy.
 Immediately after the Dutch at tackled, the State Department, be- latedly wide awake, drafted a strong note to the Netherlands. It was just as strong as the Australian statement at the United Nations.
 When the note was sent to the White House, however, the Presi- dent toned it down. Again the military were suspected.
 But even in it's revised form, the American protest put the Dutch almost in the same category as the Hitlers and Mussolinis in their wrecking of the League of Nations. It also brought howls of private anguish from the Dutch.

SENATOR'S IN ABSENTIA

Senator Wagner of New York, Il years old and aing has not answered roll call since May 27 l947 He has no thought of resgning, though his son has announced and Democratic leaders in Washington are pleased. If the Senator were to resign Governor Dewey almost certainly would name Republican to fill the last two years of his term The Democrats would rather protect their majority than have an active man replace inactive one.
 In view of the fact that the voters have an op- portunity to remove Senator only once every six years the situation doesn't make sense. Surely the Senate could devise a fair system of retirement for members no longer capable of serving Anything would
 make more sense than the Democrats jealous interest in keeping Senator Wagner on the roll even though he may likely be absent for the next two years

he had been Consul General in Batavia and was pro-Dutch. Short 1 ly after duBois took over the U. N. assignment, however, his sym pathies were all with the Indone- sian Republic.
 For a long time State Depart ment officials in Washington, wined and dined by the Dutch, leaned toward the Dutch viewpoint. But now they have suddenly awakened to the fact that the issue is far more important than revolt in the distant South Pacific. For it in- wolves the issue of whether group of nations banded together as the United Nations can prevent war.
 If the authority of the United Nations is to be flouted at the whim of any member, then work might as well stop on the elaborate U. N. home now being constructed in New York. For it will become just as useless as the Leagues old home in Geneva-another monu- ment to the selfishness and petti- ness of man.
 Note-France and Belgium help ed in the undermining of the U. N by refusing the vote with the United States to stop Dutch hos tilities.

THE DUTCH VAIL

Recently Dutch representatives called on U. s. officials again. They were up in arms over cur tailment of Marshall Plan aid to Indonesia-even though this slap on the wrist sounds much louder than it hurts.
 Actually the State Department has curtailed only $l4.000,000 of unspent ECA aid to Indonesia. The remaining S47O00,O0O has already been committed and will not be cut off-though most of it could be. Furthermore. our huge S500,- 000.0o0 ECA allotment to Holland still stands-even though S350,000,- GOO of this amount is passed on to Indonesia.
 Nevertheless, the Dutch were irate. Without attempting to quote them direct, the gist of what they said was this:
 We don't understand your pol
 icy. You spend five and a half
 billions to fight Communism in
 Europe, yet in the Far East you
 support Communism. We would
 not be in the Western European
 Pact if you hadn't asked us to
 get in. We could have been neu-
 tral in the last war, and we
 could be neutral in the next. We
 don't want to have our country overrun by the Russians as it
 was by Hitler.
 We realize that this Western
 European Pact is largely for the
 defense of the United States and
 that we are essential to it. So if the United States is going to cut off Marshall Plan aid be-
 cause of Indonesia, we might be-
 gin warming up to the Russians We don't want to, but we may have to.
 So far it doesn't look as if the President is going to be scared by Dutch threats. MT. Truman may make mistakes, but the last thing he does is scare easy. He's more likely to get his backbone up.
The Daily Alaska empire., 1949-01-06
UNITED NATIONS AT STAKE

furthermore, the state Depart ment is convinced that Dutch tac- tics in Indonesia are likely to fo- ment Communism rather than block it. The Indonesian Republic represents the middle-of- -the-road natives who don't want Commun- ism any more than the Dutch. Im- perialistic Dutch colonial policies have played into Communist hands. In 300 years, for instance, the Dutch have increased the literacy of the Dutch East Indies only T per cent.
 During the United Nations med iation, the Dutch were so high handed that U. $. mediator Dr. Graham, president of the Univer- sity of North Carolina, got fed up and went home He was replaced by Coert duBois, who protested to the State Department that he did not want the assignment because

were trying to settle the dispute.
 Cochran queried the Dutch re- gerding their activity but got way ed side with the bland reply that the Dutch Army was preparing for routine maneuvers."
 But possibly because of his in- quiries, Dutch representatives in Washington were more frank. They informed both the State Depart ment and the U s. Joint Chiefs of Staff that Communists had per- meated the Indonesian Republic and were planning a revolt in Feb ruary.
 If this revolt was successful the Communists would use Java and Sumatra as a base to take over British Malaya, Borneo and the Philippines. Therefore, concluded the Dutch. they planned to take police measures" in advance.
 It so happens that the register ed Communist vote in Holland it. self at the last election was 10 Ter cent, and U. s. observers say that the Communist percentage in Indonesia is less.
 However, U. $. reaction was mix ed. The State Department, which hitherto has coddled the Dutch, began to get alarmed Certain U. s. military men, on the other hand, in effect winked. Police ac- tion," they indicated to the Dutch, was an internal problem of no concern to the United States.

Organized Cooperation

Anyone who watches freight train by is impressed
by the number of different railroads represented by the
box and gondoas and the rest of the rolling stock
In all likelihood he'll cars which are the property of
railroads whose own tracks end one to three thousand
miles away.
This is example of the organized cooperation that
has brought the railroad industry to it's high level of
efficiency Suppose for instance that each of the more
than 600 different railroads which this country
wouldn't permit it's to leave it's tracks. The time and
the money that would then be required to load and unload
commodities moving the nation would be Incredible
Mass transportation, we know it, wouldn't exist.
What the railroads do is to work together that
freight and passengers may freely from line to
another part of unified national transportation service
And this cooperation does not stop within the industry
For nearly quarter of century, cooperation between
railroads and their customers has also been on an
operation this country They exist that railroad
ers and shippers can get together to produce the most
This is one example of how great industry deals with
the complex problems connected with meeting the basic
transportation needs of huge country The goal never
varies It is to give all who want it the best service
possible at the lowest cost.
