FIRE PREVENTION is A COMMUNITY
MATTER

Every community in the country, the Nation
|al Board of Fire Underwriters points out
should have an active fire safety committee
working on year-round basis.
The committee, if is is to be successful must
have chairman with energy, enthusiasm, and
proved leadership ability. It's membership
Ishould be drawn from all elements in the com
munity- y-churches, hospitals, industrialists and
labor unions, service clubs, theatres, veterans
organizations and the rest. And its duties
jshould run the gamut of fire hazards, from in
defective building codes to the existence of fire
traps that need to be condemned.
A considerable number of committees of this
mature have been formed and are now at work
There is no. better way to bring home to the
sents to them-along with easily understood
obstruction how to make property safe
Fire prevention, after ALL is bascally local
matter. Every community has it's own special
problems. National and state fire safety or
ganizations are doing splendid and essential
job-but they can't individually cover every
village. And that's where the local committees
enter the picture.
Organized fire prevention work is reaching
peak of activity now, result of our record
fire waste. More effort and more thought is
being given to stopping fire than ever before.
And a local fire safety committee in every COM
munity, no matter how small it's population, is
a vital element in the campaign against one of
the greatest destroyers of life and property.

FOR LABOR'S SAKE

The Most Reverend Russell J. Mckinney, the
Catholic Bishop of Providence, recently spoke
to one of the CIO unions. He condemned strike
violence and "slowdown'' tactics. Then he
said: "1t is grave sin against justice for a
workman to accept days wages when he
knows he is not giving an honest days work.
Bricklayers used to lay 1900 bricks day, but
row they're down to 400 ...
"Drones and racketeers who operate under
you. | think it is time they be punished within
the union or read out of membership. They
are discrediting organized labor, and you may
all regret it. l charge you to set about purging
the undesirables and correcting the abuses"
Millions of Americans who support the cause
of organized labor will agree with this church.

it will simply bring down upon it's head far
harsher legislation than any far experience
ed. The Showdown" in worker output has
become a scandal in the building trades in
many areas, and in other fields of work as we'll.
automobiles, factories and it's vicious physical
attacks on non-strikers, can be described only
by the word criminal.
The fight of highly-placed labor leaders
against communism in labor's ranks has earned
the applause of the country. It is equally i'm
portant that elements which want big pay for
a bare minimum of output which seek their
ends through violence be ostracized. Labor
must clean it's house for its own sake.

AMAZING GENEROSITY

If Congress heeds the budgettary requests
of the President, it will cost the people of this
country $6700,000,000 to give assistance to
foreign countries without making any allow
ance for expenditures that may come in con-
nection with the proposed North Atlantic de-
fense arrangement.
As we have stated before, never in the his
tory of the world has any nation so lbefally
poured its resources into foreign countries for
the benefit of other peoples. The sole justif-
cation of this expenditure of American funds
is to be found in the belief that, in any future
world conflict, the beneficiaries of our gener-
osity will help us defend the ideals of Ameri-
utilization.
This civilization by the way, is largely an
inheritance from the Anglo-Saxon race. It diff
fers considerably from the inherited cultures of
other races and other peoples and nobody but
a simpleton is willing, in these perplexing
times, to leave its defense to other people who
know little about it and have no appreciation of
its virtues.
The great freedoms about which we read so
much have not come to the world through the
development of Asiatic, African or Latin civili-
cations. The Mongol and the Slav have con-
tributed very little to it's development.
This is important truth which Americans
should bear in mind when asked to join in any
international effort to set up common set of
principles for enforcement by the nations of
The world. AS many observers have pointed
out, the chances are that the ideal" set-up will
not be laws of the Anglo-Saxon people, who
happen to have only minority of the votes
that go into international conferences.

NEW EMPLOYEE TAXES?

While the taxing of employees to help fl
nance state unemployment compensation has
much Of merit, the proposal runs into practical
difficulties. These substantial that un-
til the Advisory Council on Social Security set
up by the Senate Committee on Finance reviv-
ed the idea, it had been abandoned in nearly
all the states.
First there is the redoubtable resistance of
organized labor. Also the tax for jobless in
surance which the employers alone pay in all
the states but Alabama is at present generally
sufficient to finance the payments to the un-
employed.
In any big overhauling of the system occurs
the possibility that the weekly benefits may be
raised so high as to encourage many employees
to shirk work and live as long as they On
the state. Innumerable instances of man and
women manipulating themselves into idleness
and jobless payments have developed under
the present scale Of benefits. The weekly
checks of the state to the unemployed should
certainly be adequate. But if they are boosted
greatly, as number of labor leaders urge, the
temptation to prefer idleness to work will be
intensified. This is weakness of a very use

WHAT FARMERS REALLY NEED

sonic ray holds miracles for American farms,
representing source of power and energy that
can be put to work to increase the yields of
vegetables and grain, kill mosquito larvae

by "cooking' them to death.

the surface has only been scratched and there
is much more to be expected from these new
weapons of service. Without going into the
details of what the prophets predict, we sug-
gest to the scientists, if they want to help the
average farmer, to find some way to kill weeds.

from livestock country to city counter, science
bazes the trail for thriving livestock indus
try. Among these trail-bazers 400 trained per-
sonnel in the Swift research laboratories and test
kitchens. Pioneer scientists, they develop meat
products-hnd new uses for more and more live
stock by-products Scentist-saesmen they create
markets-better values for your livestock.
Yes, their work means money to you millions!
The average annual commercial slaughter for the
last ten years 2819 million cattle and calves,
nearly 65 million hogs, and over % million sheep and
lambs. That's lot of meat-snd it's lot of by
products, too! Cowhides, pgskins, and sheepskins,
by the millions, for everyday leather goods. Well over
so million pounds of pulled wool annually for cloth
and clothing Thousands of tons of ards and soaps for
home and industry. Carloads of animal feeds Tons
of hair for upholstery The list almost endless.
Research found how to derive lifesaving pharma-
ceuticals from animal by-products. Here numbers
are important. For example, tiny glands from many
thousands of animals must be saved to produce one
pound of adrenalin, powerful heart stimuant. To
yield one pound of crystalline insuin, vital in the
treatment of diabetes the psncreatic glands of 10000
cattle needed. Important, too is albumin, tuber
culosis "detector recovered from cattle blood-and
many more beneficial, alimportant medicinal prod
ucts derived from animal slaughter.
Now recent research has developed an entirely
line of important chemicals from fatty acids. One
chemical from fat makes clothing water-repelent.
Another is a fotaton agent, useful in the separation
of phosphates for fertilizers Another prolongs the
life of synthetic tires by causing them to cooler
And detergents 'soap substitutes" have been re-
covered for with hard water in the home and in
dustry. So the list grows, from day to day.
