CONGRESS:
Blq Order

Ivy WV"
In calm, unhurried manner,
President Truman outlined to the
81st congress his legislative pro-
posals. To the surprise Of no one
he asked legislators to enact vlr-
tually every recommendation he
made during his election campaign.
He called for more taxes, authority
to restore economic controls,
broad program of social legislation.
ALONG WITH corporations, indi-
viduals in the middle and higher
income brackets would share in the
task of providing the four billion
dollars more annual revenue which
MIR. Truman says the government
must have.
These are the major recommen-
dations made by the President In
his estate OF the union" message:
INFLATION-Widen government
control over bank and consumer
credit, exports and transportation
ALLEGATIONS; extend and strengthen
rent control. Grant authority to reg
ulate commodity speculation. allo-
cate scarce key materials, control
certain wages and prices, if neces-
Sary.
TAXES-Raise four billion dollars
additional revenue for the govern
ment, mainly by taxing corpora
tions, but also by boosting estate
and gift taxes; consider increasing
income taxes for the middle and
upper pay brackets.
LABOR-Repeal the Taft-Hartley
law and re-enact old Wagner act
but with bans against jurisdictional
strikes and secondary boycotts and
some provision for avoiding strikes
in general industry. Boost minimum
wage from 40 to rs cents an hour.
BUSINESS - Strengthen anti
trust laws by closing loopholes that
permit monopolistic mergers and
consultations.
FARM-Use price supports to
keep farmers at a fair economic
level.
OTHERS-Extend social security;
set up system Of prepaid medical
insurance. Aid state educational
systems. Pass same civil rights pro-
posals made to 80th congress. Push
power, flood control and navigation
projects on the rivers. Maintain
armed forces sufficient to deter
aggression" Pass universal train
ing legislation.

To Speak Or
Not To Speak

Before congress convened, Wash
ington was enjoying it's usual influx
of national convent ons, among them
two groups concerned with the oral
cavity-the dentists and the speech
teachers Of the nation. Although I
was invited to attend sessions of
both groups, I exercised my jaws at
only one-the speech instructors
meeting.
The job of the speech instructor
is, of course, to get the learners to
use words to express ideas.-a diff
cult task. Not that the raw material
is lacking. The dictionary is full of
words, and the air is thick With
ideas. More difficult is getting the
words out Of she dictionary ana the
ideas out of the air into the learn
ers' heads.
The next step is to get the
learner to understand the mean-
ing Of the words he uses anl
then to translate them into ideas
which somebody else can un-
derstand - aye! - there's the
rub!
Consequently the speech instruc-
tors have not only difficult, But a
hazardous profession. Leaving a

We know from recent reports tha!
some of the scientists working with

It's wonder to me that more
speech instructors don't go deaf.
1 suppose speech teachers also
teach that most useful corollary
art-the use ot words to conceal
ones meaning 1t is one / practice
arduouSly.
After decade and d half cf
broadcasting. most of my listeners
haven't the slightest idea of what
my politics are.
One point which was stressed at
the speech conference was that the
competition for power which ends
in strife-domestic, industrial. ir-
ternational-iS due, chiefly to i'm
proper communication. agree with
that assumption.
There is no excuse for this in this

Now, after only seven months Of

Holman, a hard-headed BUSINESS
man, that lit has not only stopped
the march of Communism, but has
turned the tide in the opposite di-
rection." Only recently, Yugosla-

production above the pre-war level
of 1888; relaxation of inflationary
pressures in all the ERP countries
except France and Greece.
Now what?
To convince our people that
the game is worth the candle,
that whatever the cost, this Is
the first blOodless war ever
fought, that it is cheap insur-
ance against a shooting war.
To convince congress that the
charges, among others, that ECA is
not being efficiently operated,
that big business is being favored
and little business sighted are un-
just, or if the charges are true, cor
rect them.

WISHBONE:
Send 1t In

Perhaps you've never thought
about it, but there must be a par
ticular reason you like chicken
every Sunday. Now, if you'll only
think about that reason, tell it to a
judge, and it happens to be declared
the best submitted, you will find
your fondest wish coming true.
THERE is big "Wishbone Con-
test" going on in these United
States and the national prize is the
granting of the winning contestants
own 'most-desired' wish. The con-
test is sponsored by the Poultry
and Egg National Board of Chicago,
and the only requirement is that
chicken wishbone-a real one-must
accompany each entry. Anyone in
the United States is eligible for the
contest.
Contestants must write, in fewer
than 100 words, their reasons "Why
I like chicken every Sunday" They
can send entries in the form of an
essay, limerick or slogan-but each
entry must be accompanied by a
real chicken wishbone and the con-
testant's most desired wish.
THREE REGIONAL winners will

HARMONY:
Some Question

Congress was off to a rough start.
The hope Of general harmony, +"
expressed by President Truman and
some congressional leaders. grew
dim at the start.
Republican Senator Vandenberg
charged Democratic colleagues
with violating the spirit of biparti-
sanship in foreign affairs.
Committee assignments provided
the spark which set off the blast Of
discord. When the Democrats de-
cided to take eight of the 13 seats on
the foreign relations committee,
the Republicans cried foul and
uttered their protests.
SENATOR VANDENBERG, who
will be replaced as committee chair
man by Senator Connally 3D., TexD
called it a political decision.
Senator Morse 3D., Ore) was less
restrained. He charged that the i'm
plications are that the Democratic
party proposes to play politics with
war and peace"
Democrats denied any partisan
ship, claimed they were entitled to
more seats because they have
bigger majority than the Repub-
licans had.
Vice-President Barkley regretted
the controversy" He told report
ers that the bigger Democratic ma
jority will in no way affect the BIZ
partisan course of the committee.

MERCY KILLING:
Has Advocates

III US AUUOCUt6S
Euthanasia, euphemism for
''mercy killing, gained important
support in New York state where
hundreds of Protestant and Jewish
religious leaders petitioned for
legislation legalizing the practice,
THE QUESTION has agitated hui
manitarians and sociologists for
centuries and there are many cases
on record where mercy killings
have been committed. Despite legal
barriers and penalties, the record
in such cases, for the most part,
shows that juries are inclined to
look with some leniency on the per-
son who kills another to put him
or her "out of his misery"
On an appeal to the emotions
alone, much convincing argument
for euthanasia may be presented.
But. considered from all other
angles with individual rights. posi-
bility of criminal intent and other
such factors involved, the practice
could become highly dangerous.
The New York group advocating
the measure included 379 Protestant
and Jewish ministers of the Empire
state, the largest group ever pub
Hcly to advocate euthanasia. The
practice is now punishable as mur-
der in all the 48 states. The petition
was sent to every member of the
New York legislature.

The safeguards: The sufferer
must submit "a petition, duly at

committee of physicians. If this
