covered employment amounted to
9O,297 jobs.
Veterans Included
Last weeks total of 4,578 com
pensable claims included both the
veterans and the non-veterans re-
ceiving jobless benefits. During
the same week in 1947 the total
load was still higher, amounting to
5,0O1 persons.
The spring upturn in jobs, which
usually cuts the compensation
rolls at this time of year, is nor
mally due in large measure to a
revival of construction activity.
This year, however, the winter has
been so mild that much construc-
ton work has continued through
the cold months, with the result
that the usual upswing is lack
ing.
The high level of employment
maintained in the construction field
probably made up for lay-offs by
manufacturing firms, and hid theil
effect until now, according to EN-.
ployment officials. Reports from
manufacturers reveal widespread
Tightening up of payrolls. Whereas
no large scale lay-offs are report
ed, there have been many small
layOffs, it was explained.

DR.. BUNCHES WORK THE MIDDLE EAST

IT MUST HAVE BEEN proud and happy day for Dr..
Ralph Bunche, Acting United Nations Mediator for Palestine
when the peace treaty was signed between Israel and
Egypt. The task was almost impossible, as to many sea-
soned students of world problems the Middle East was a
powder key subject to ignite at any moment and set the world
aflame. But that is all over now, as both sides in the Palestine
dispute heap praises on Dr.. Bunche for his calm, understand
ing, and ability. Now further plans are being made to bring
about other talks between nations of the Arab world and
Israel.
NEWSPAPERS N RADIO commentators all over the
United States have taken time out to discuss the Job done by
DR.. Bunche, and to speak of him as a most remarkable man.
Working constantly in the teeth of threats of death, follow
ing the assassination of Count Foulke B~ernadotte, DR.. Bunche
carried on with faith and conviction, realizing that if peace
came to the Middle East the UN would have won a signal
victory, and that the world would breathe more easily. Now
there is talk of nominating him for the Nobel Peace Prize,
which would put him in the category of the worlds great. No
such prize was given in l948, the last going to the American
Ouakers in l947.

There is no religious leader in
the satellite states, except Yugo-
slavia, who is in a position to defy
Soviet rule. But the clergy-par-
ticularly the Protestant and
Roman Catholic - has not been
completely cowed yet.
While there is no open defiance
of the rulers of the Soviet-con-
trolled states. sermons which
stress that there are powers in the
world greater than the Comm
form and the Soviet secret police,
and which emphasize love and
brotherhood between peoples. are
frequently given from the pulpits.
Seek to Show Clergy as Venal.
In order to reduce the prestige
of ministers in the eyes OF the
masses, whom Communist domin-
alton has not yet turned into
atheists, it is considered neces-
sary to show the clergy as venal
and treacherous. This was done
in Russia in the early days of the
revolution, when posters showing
the Orthodox clergy in the most
disgraceful light were put up in

Similar tactics now have been

Priests and ministers are formally
accused of being traitors to their

live luxurious lives at time when

These prosecutions are regarded

eating a degree of concern among
the rulers of countries behind the

Tito openly def1ed Moscow's au-
thoritarian rule a certain amount
of uneasiness has developed in the
satellite states.
Passive Resistance Carried On.
Completely deprived of any
weapons with which they could
stage an uprising, the people are
not thinking in terms of rebellion
yet. But they are carving on
a somewhat sneering passive re-
sistence to Moscow's agents. This
explains why Romania's police
forces have been disbanded. They
could not be relied on entirely. 1t
also explains why there has been
a great purge of the Czech army.

Since Bulgaria. Poland and
Yugoslavia have been forced be-

last three years. their populations
have not been indoctrinated suftl-
GENTLY with a hatred of religion
and the ministers and priests still
play an important role.
To discredit these men of God

governments of the satellite coun-

Opposes Control of Economy.
It is refreshing to have the Re-
publican Party's tWo-tlme presi-
dental candidate admit that the
party's thinking in the Harding
Coolidge Hoover era was bad. But
it is not certain that he under
stands just how bad it was. The
thinking then was that booms
were due to Republican policies,
but that busts were acts OF God
usually stated as world condl-
tions over which we have no con-
troll" Depressions, it was believed,
came in cycles and there was
nothing anybody could do about 1t.
The real achievement OF the
New Deal was its successful chal-
lenge of this long g-accepted theory
At least, that will be the real
achievement if the challenge con-
tinues to be successful. Sustained
prosperity for the whole popula-
ton will mean more in terms OF
the general welfare than all the
social legislation that can be de-
vised. And yet, Gov. Dewey talks
like most of his fellow party lead
ers when measures designed to
exercise some control over the
national economy. for the very
purpose of sustaining our pros
perity, are suggested.
