the United States.
Your husband might be what we
call q gentleman farmer he
would manage the work and see
that everything went well, but the
work might be done by several
hired men. Perhaps they would live
with their families in a little red
house On the farm, and they would
most certainly belong TO a union
which determines their rate of pay
and working hours.
If you were driving through the
country you would see them stop in
the middle of the morning and
session.
Although there is a church in
nearly every community, you prob
ably would not attend services on
Sunday morning, for church-going
is not too common among Swedish
people. If you did attend, you would
probably go to a Lutheran church,
since that is the state religion of
Sweden. You would most likely
know your minister better as the
one who performs many duties that
are done by county officers in this
country.
AS a Swedish lady you would not
belong to many organizations such
as Women's clubs but would spend
many afternoons and evenings Wis
iting your friends and as you talked,
your knitting needles would fly as
fast as your tongues, for knitting
is a national custom in Sweden.
Besides socks and mittens, you
would knit beautiful garments for
yourself and your family.
Paris Labels
You would probably prefer tai
lored clothes, for the chances are
that you would be rather tall ane
slender. OF course you would have
an eye to fashion as you selected
your wardrobe, and you might in
clude an article that was at leas
inspired by Paris, if it did not bea.
a Paris label.
Your children would attend publ
school until they were IA years oil,
and then perhaps go on to the gym
nasium," which is the equivalen
of our high school. If they passes
the stiff student exam" they woul
be permitted to go to the univer
sity, where they would receive a
excellent education in language, mu
sic, home economics, medicine, etc
or to n of many colleges and tech
meal high schools where they woul
learn to be farmers, engineers, ct,
You, too, might attend one of tn
many short urs at practic;
schools, for Swedish people hav
many such schools for every tyr
of work.
You probably would be concerne
about another war, for your cou1
try is strategically located and
: well industrialized that it would
a real conquest for any nation. {
course you have not been in a w;
; for 40 years and you will do ever
thing in your power to preserN
your record of neutrality.
If you were a Swedish farmer
Montana farmer-stockman., 1949-11-01

of your time figuring conversions
from cups and spoons, as l did.
Your meals, if they were typically
Swedish, would include cheese in
almost every meal, for Sweden is
a dairyland. The farmers must make
the best possible use of every inch
of land, and consequently dairy cat
tie are much more common than
beef cattle. Although the crops on
your farm would be similar to those
on a Montana farm-wheat, oats,
rye, barley, sugar beets and flax
you would be amazed to find that
a good yield on a Montana farm is
about half as large as on yours.
You would be concerned about
food rationing, however, for al
though Sweden has Jared much bet
ter than most European countries,
meat, butter and other fats, and
sugar are on the ration list. They
present a real problem in meal
planning, for Swedish cooking re-
quires an ample supply of all of
these.
Of course fish is plentiful and you
would serve fish-pickled as appe-
Tiers or as a main dish or in a
sauce to garnish other foods. Many
of your dishes would bear a ia
miliar taste to Americans, for you
would use dill as "a seasoning in
many of your recipes.
Plentiful Food
You would spend long hours IN
the kitchen preparing delicious food
for your family and friends, sea-
soning it to perfection with salt and
pepper, perhaps a little sugar and
your favorite herbs. Then you would
decorate it so well that a visitor
thinks it looks too good to eat.
You would eat much more dark
bread than white, for delicious
brown bread and crisp rye crackers
are a national food habit in Sweden
Your sandwiches would all be open
faced, as you have never thought
Of putting a top on them. With &
little bit of tomato, olive, cucumber
or parsley decoration, they join the
ranks of food that looks too good tc
eat, but you would have several a:
a first course. You would eat then
with a knife and fork-knife in the
right hand and fork in the left.
If the Christmas season were near
ing, your tasks would be increased
for a Christmas without a bountifu
table would not be a real Christmas
You might bake little gingerbread
houses to decorate the inches in tn,
huge porcelain stoves in the corne
of each room, and your pantr.
would be groaning with all of tn
other goodies.
Although you might have man
modern conveniences, you woul
probably not have a washing ma
chine, as all laundry equipment
expensive and scarce in Sweden an
not too necessary in your plan {
washday. Washday generally come
but once every two months or 81
but as with everything else, tn
washing is a very thorough jo
when it is done.

Household Help

If you were a Swedish housewife,
you would possibly have a maid to
get breakfast in the morning and
help during the day, for domestic

VIEWS AND REVIEWS.

thur Lourie heads what has be-
come one of the most feverish-
ly active consular posts of any
foreign government in the U. S.
When visited DR.. Lourie not
long ago, I found his office to be
veritable beehive of activity.
The reception room was crowd
ed with visitors, long-distance
calls were coming in continuous
ly, and one could see that here
indeed a new government had
been born and was now already
taking care of itself.
The other great nerve-center
for Israel in the U. S. is at Los
Angeles. There, at 208 w. 9th
Street is the office of Reuven
Dafni, Consul for Israel for the
West Coast.
Major Dafni has already lived
a very eventful life. He is ma
tive of Yugoslavia and has lived
in Palestine for Is years. He had
brilliant career with the Hag-
anah and also served as volun-
teer with the British Army in
Africa, Crete, Greece, and Syria.
He spent Is months in Yugo-
slavia, having been dropped
there by parachute during the
time that it was under the heel
of Hitler. His military intelli-
gence unit is credited with hav-
ing saved 142 Allied air men
who had been captured or who
had crash landed.
The Los Angeles office was
opened November l, 1913 and
since that time, Major Dafni has
flown in bad weather and good
up and down the Pacific Coast
to tell the story of Israel to mass
meetings, chambers of commerce,
consular groups, Zionist chap
tiers, and over the air.
Dafni is tall and vigorous.

UNIV Chief Lists
labor's '4o Aims

Washington, d. C. QLNS). =
Labor's aims for 1949 were listed
by President John l.. Lewis of the
United Mine Workers of America
in a statement on an American
Broadcasting Co. program.
Labor in 1949," Lewis said, Gin
creasingly demands security; Sc
curity in the right to organize and
bargain collectively; security in
employment; increased employ
ployment compensation; pensions
and increased medical protection
and disqualification facilities.
Labor wants the outright re-
peal of the iniquitous Taft-Hartley
statute and immunity, with all
other citizens, from oppressive and
punitive legislation.
Labor in its wage and hour
standards must be given continu-
Gus participation in the increased
productive efficiency of our nation
al economy.
"These are legitimate aims and
in no other way can national pros
perity and our American freedoms
be preserved"

needed. AT the Camden plant, kiln
production was increased by about
20 percent. When the Redlands
plant was built in 1916, Universal
became one of the first manufac-
turers of vitreous china ware to
have coast forecast production fac
ilities. A completely new method
of patching was developed at this
new plant, and all production oper-
ations were mechanical.
The Rundle Manufacturing Com
pany was founded in Milwaukee in
1900 under the name of the SAM
tary Enameling Company. In 1902
the name was changed to the one it
now bears, when four members of
the Rumble family bought into the
company. The Rundle interests
were purchased in 1913 by r. t.
Hazelwood and Henry Held, father
of H. J. Held, president of Rundle
and president of the new corp
Grafton.
Specializing in the production of
enameled cast iron plumbing fix
lures, Rundle has been an import
ant factor in the development of
that industry. In 1911 it was the
first to produce successfully the
one-piece wall hung sink. In 1920
it became the first to use Sand
Singer in producing bathtubs, thus
making the mechanization of bath
tubs, thus making the mechaniza-
tion Of bathtub production possible.
Rundle's chemical laboratory for
control was one of the first in the
industry.
Board chairman of the Universal
Rumble Corporation will be w.
Keith McAfee, who came to Uni
versal from the Pennsylvania Rail
road in 1922, and became success
sively chief engineer, vice-pres-
ident, president, and in 1947 board
chairman. An engineering gradu-
ate of the University of Pennsy-
lvania, Mr.. McAfee has stressed
research and modern production
in the making of vitreous
china ware, and is recognized
the industry as an
authority in that field.
President of the new corporation
is Clyde NJ. Whitaker, son of one
of the founders of Universal, and
president of that company since
1947. Previously, Mr.. Whitaker
was secretary and treasurer, vice

Railroads Win
Sixth Round
of Rate Raise

Chicago (LPA) - The nations
railroads got the sixth round
freight rate increase during the
past week, but 16 Railroad Broth
erhoods were still fighting here to
complete their third round" wage
movement.
These 16 represent a million
workers in the incorporating
crafts-those outside of the train,
engine and yard service.
A presidential fact-fnding board,
functioning under the Railway La
Dor Act, recently handed down an
award in the case of the 16 unions,
which provided for a 7c an hour
pay increase, retroactive to Oct. l.,
and 40-hour week, with 48 hours
pay, effective next Sept. l.
Dissatisfied with the recommen-
dations, leaders of the unions
swung into new bargaining confer
ences with the railroads in an eff
fort to get a better deal"
They want a larger wage in
crease; an earlier effective date on
the shorter work week, and adjust
ment of various other inequities
which would be created by sub
sidiarN recommendations of the
board.
Meantime, the Interstate Com
merce Commission "okayed"
new freight rate increase averag-
ing about $50 and yielding the
railroads approximately $425,0O0,-
300 in added annual revenue.
This was the sixth increase in
rates which the commission has
for the railroads since
the end of the war-and it was
only "down payment" on a 1870
increase asked by the rails. The
is to hold further
hearings and rule on the balance
If the rate request.
