the public at large has the means
to by pretty much what it wants.
It is probably true that, once prices
started downward, many people de-
ferred purchasing in the hope of
really substantial drops. If the ex-
perts are correct, these hopes will
probably not be fulfilled. Only very
small price declines, as a general
rule, are expected for the next six
months or so. New stage demands,
if successful, and continued record
bre eaking government spending,
might reverse the trend and cause
price increases. The experts have
been wrong in the past, but it is
worth recording that most of them
are optimistic now.

Help Handicapped
Workers Find Jobs

A campaign to help handicapped
workers find jobs will be carried on
from October 2-8 as Maricopa Coun-
ty joins the nation in observing Ma
tional Employ the Physically Han
dicapped Week. Chairman of the
local NEPH Week activities is. Dee
E. Reese, Veterans Employment
Representative for this area. A
proclamation calling for observ-
ance has been issued by President
Truman.
Local employers will be asked to
survey their present job require
ments in order to find possible
openings for handicapped workers.
Physically disabled persons not now
working will be urged to register
with the Phoenix office of the Ari-
zona State Employment Service,
where their qualifications for work
can be evaluated.
"We believe that there is a job
for every handicapped worker if
employers will consider the abilities
and not the disabilities of the han
dicapped," said Reese. "When prop
erly placed, disabled workers as a
rule are enthusiastic, hard work
ing, and satisfactory workers. Their
accident record is low and their
production record high"
"This is not a charity drive" con-
tinued Reese. "When an employer
calls the State Employment Serv-
ice for handicapped worker, he
can be sure that any applicant sent
to him will be just as well qualified
for the job as an unimpaired work
er."
Hans c. Johansen states that at
present, approximately 300 handi-
capped workers are registered with
the Phoenix office of the employ
ment service.

in keeping business and employ
ment in many fields at high levels
will probably slacken to some de-
gree, and spending by industry on
new plants will be down. The hope
is that the low in spending in these
directions will be made up by an
increase in others.
At any rate, Business Week cites
number of signs which indicate
that business is now pulling out of
the spring slump. Steel production
has again risen. Electric power
output, always one of the best busi-
ness barometers, has also gained.
So have rail shipments of manu-
factured articles. Textiles, which
were deep in the doldrums a while
back, show new life. And things
seem to be looking up in the ap-
pliance industries.
Consumer n o m e, during the
first half of this year, was well
ahead of last. And so was conSum-
er spending. In that first half, re-
tail sales were two per cent under
the same period last year-but,
Business Week says, this was "only
because of price drops. Far from
being frightened into retrenchment,
consumers actually spent larger
of their incomes than in
the last half of 1948."
Personal savings are at record or
near-record levels. This means that

.Dente Is Finest Griff Shortstop
Since Cronin, Martin Says
By Burton Hawkins
Stor Stoff Correspondent

ORLANDO, Fla, Mar. 2.-"Sam
Dente will be the finest Washing
ton shortstop since Joe Cronin,'
said Scout Mike Martin. Hes
fast, will cover ground, has great
arm and he's no dumb cluck with
that bat. I've seen enough of him
to know that he's going to help
this club a lot"
For four years the Mats have
been in pursuit of the SWarthy
Dente, righthanded hitter whose
progress in the Boston Red SoX
scheme was blocked first by the
excellence of Johnny Pesky, then
by the acquisition of Vernon Ste
phens. They finally have caught
up with him, at the expense OF
parting with Pitcher Tom Ferrlck,
Shortstop Johnny Sullivan and
wad of cash and they relish the
prospect of the dark Italian taking
command at shortstop.
Dente admits to impaired hear
ing in his left ear, the result of
close association with antiaircraft
guns during the war. but he has
no difficulty understanding normal
conversation and laughs of the
notion that it would affect his
play.
Kuhel Backs Denies Argument.
Manager Joe Kuhel supports
Denies argument that damaged
left ear is inconsequentlal. In
the first place" says Kuhel, "Dente
can hear well enough, but even II
he were stone deaf it wouldn't
make much difference.
There doesn't have to be any
conversation between the second
baseman and shortstop as to who
will cover the bag. The only sig
nails they need are open mouth
I'll cover or close mouth (you
take the bag. Taking relays from
the outfield is automatic and
slight waving of the hand on
pop flies keeps the other fellow
from humping you. There's MOTH
ing complicated about that, even
if Dente had no ears
Dente figures to have a mini
mum of trouble in that respect
because he'll be laboring with an
old friend in Second Baseman Al
Kozar. They were teammates and
boarding house roommates with
Scranton in 1916 when the Mats
first attempted to snare Sam
from the Red SoX chain.
"Al and know each other
pretty WE'LL" says Dente. Il know
what he can do. he knows what
can do and we understand each
other. I think we'll work together
very we'll
Martin, Griffith Like Sam.
Martin secuted .Dente when
Sam was playing with Louisville
in 1947. He was playing third
base then" says Mike. "and play
ing it as we'll as anybody you've
ever seen. His natural position,
though, is shortstop, and he's
going to be the best one we've
had in a long, long time"
Mikes enthusiasm is shared by
President Clark Griffith. Il saw
Dente only when he was playing
with st. Louis against us in Wash
ington," says Griff, but I saw
enough to like him. He's the best
in the league at coming in for
