But a woman is under the ne
cessity of being beautiful though
ugly. If she wasn't born pulchri-
tudinous it is part Of her business
to make herself so. That is why
women spend their money in
beauty shops instead of restau-
rants, why they starve themselves
to attain stringbean figures and
why they grow old trying to keep
young.
Observation shows them that
men are far more interested In the
outside of a girls head than in
what is within it. Also, they have
observed that when a woman looks
for a job 1t is better to be Miss
America than to hold the type
writing record or to be wizard at
figures.
Then part of the business of be-
ing woman is to be sort of uni
versal genius, a jack of all trades.
Nobody expects man to be a
combination lawyer and plumber
or doctor, carpenter and gigolo.
No man, after q hard days work,
washes his collar in the bathroom
so he may have a fresh one for
the next day. nor does he sit up
at night making over his old
trousers so they will look as good

ASnge Element Pull Together Your Decorative Scheme
By Gladys Miller
Secretary, New York Chapter,
American Institute Of Decorators


Ingenuity knows no bounds in
the decorative field. and people
of discriminating taste today are
able to find in the shops, in the
auctions and through their deco
rators precisely the charming
item that puts personality in the
home.
What is more, these out-of-
the-ordinary pieces are being used
with contemporary things. and
when the scale. color and design
of all harmonic or contrast
pleasingly, the result is attractive.
When you analyze q well-plan-
ned room you find some subtle
uniting element. a catalytic agent,
so to speak, that pulls the whole
together.
Could Be a Rug.
Often this will be q decorative
scatter rug. We have been in the
solid-color broadloom age for so
long that these new accent rugs
are a fresh relief.
Finding carpets difficult to OBJ
tain because of shortages In good
wool. decorators started looking
for fine old pieces-pieces created
by fine artists and craftsmen in
every country in the world.
For several reasons decorators
have started suggesting accent
rugs to their clients. Young
people like the idea because
they lack funds, and one
decorative rug adds something to
the room that a cheaper type of
solid carpet for the same amount
Of money cannot do.
So, often a decorator will take
an unusual color in a deep-piled
chenille, fine velvet, or deep-piled
shag-type rug, cut the piece into
a free form, bind it. and use it as
part of the main grouping of fur
nishings in room. Watch this
new fashion grow.

Backers Of FEPc
Score At Hearing
In San Francisco

San Francisco UPA)-Organiz-
ed labor and the Democratic party
are fighting hard for passage of
fair employment practices ordin-
ance badly needed by this city.
Opponents insisted there is no
discrimination and argued no such
measure is needed. A different
picture emerged when supporters
of the proposal testified at a re-
cent hearing before a special com
mittee of the City's Board of Sup
ervisors.
One witness pointed out that
nearly 30 percent Of San Fran
cisco's $4,000 Negro workers are
unemployed while only eight per-
cent Of the white work force are
Jobless. Another quoted state job
placement officers as saying 80
percent of all job opportunities ex-
clude Negroes and rs percent ex-
clude Orientals, and that many pri-
vate agencies discriminate to some
extent against Jews and Catholics,
but are even more biased against
Negroes.

ldent of the California State Fed

tion creates fertile grounds for

AMA's Millions Will
Boomerang, Committee
On Health Says

Washington (LPA)-The Com
|mittee for the Nations Health,
which spearheads the fight for
President Truman's health insur-
ance bill, has conceded that legisla-
Ition will probably not come up in
the present session of Congress,
but forecasts it will be one of the
major issues of this years cleo
tions.
The Committee said the millions
of dollars being spent by the AM
erican Medical Association to fight
the program would boomerang.
This propaganda, the CNH said, is
making people realize there is such
a thing as health insurance-when
they realize it is available, they
will demand not the limited volun-
tary kind the ANA wants, but the
comprehensive kind that can be
made available only through ma
tional health insurance.

Seattle Medical
Coop Sues
Local Medicos

Seattle, Wash. UPA)-Second
of the current court battles to
break the stranglehold Of the Am
erican Medical Association over
physicians job rights is now under
way here. Pretrial hearings of the
suit by Group Health Cooperative
Of Puget Sound against the local
medical association have ended,
with decisions on nearly every
point favoring the coop.
Group Health, formed four years
ago, now serves more than 10000
member-patients, has the services
of 20 physicians under contract,
and owns a hospital whose facili-
ties have been approved by the
ANA.
However, the thriving consumer
owned plan charges that it is be-
ing blocked by the local medical
society in these ways:
Threats to expel from local
medical society membership any
doctor who furnished prepaid medi-
cal care in competition with the
program owned and run by the
medical society.
2-Adoption by every local hos
pital of a rule barring from its
facilities any doctor not belonging
to the local medical society.
3-Refusal to admit to the local
medical society, re ard les 5 of
qualifications, doctors employed by
the coop, including men transfer
ring from other states.
Superior Court Judge Roger
Meakln has ruled that Group
Health has a right to relief from
the local medical society's prac-
tices, if testimony proves that they
are true. He also is recommending
prompt hearing of the suit.
The local medical society's medi-
cal plan offers doctors services to
the family only if an individual is
hospitalized, contrasted with the
complete home and hospital medi-
cal care program offered by Group
Health.

Nv NATHAN ROBERTSON

Washington (LPA) - President
Truman, in his annual "state of the
Union" message to Congress, re-
stated his "Fair Deal" program
and expanded it to provide Amer
lea with a standard of living by the
end of this century three times as
high as at present.
The Presidents message - the
strongest he has ever sent to Con-
gress-outlined in bold terms the
goal ahead for America. 1t was
Truman's first effort to shape a
long range goal, but an effort that
will go down in history. 1t was a
peacetime program as imaginative
and daring as the wartime program
outlined by former President
Roosevelt, which carried America
to victory in World War ii.
The message was a sharp chal-
lenge to the Republicans who have
been attacking the idea of a swell
fare state" While the President did
not use the terms, the program he
outlined would provide welfare
state" in which every family would
enjoy the benefits of Americas
great industrial machine without
losing any of its individual free
dom. In fact all Americans would
enjoy expanded freedom, as the
program developed.
Hitting hard at the Republicans
who have made the cost of his
program an issue-President Tru
man pointed out that they had
created the present deficit by their
"ill-considered tax reduction" in
the 80th Congress. To meet the de-
ficit he proposed holding eXpendi-
lures to the lowest possible level
consistent with "our international
and the essential
needs of economic growth and the
well-being of our people,. But he
warned against ''the' folly of at
tempting budget slashes which
would impair our prospects for
peace or cripple the programs ess-
ential to our national strength"
In addition to strict economy,
the President proposed tax in
to yield a moderate
of additional revenue" but
probably not enough to balance the
budget at once. He said "substan-
tial improvement" of our fiscal
position could be expected during
the next few years as the cost of |

Businessmen Take
Issue With COP
Stand On Spending

Washington (LPA)-Republicans
are telling you the $5.5 billion fed
eral deficit is dangerous and repre-
sents a wasteful, socialistic spend
ing program.
But suppose businessmen such
as Marion b. Folsom, of Eastman
Kodak; Beardsley Ruml, of Macy's;
Clarence Francis, Of General Foods;
George l.. Harrison, of New York
Life; Jay Horned, Of the packing
company; Eric Johnston, of the
Motion Picture Association; Fowler
Mccormick, Of international Har-
vester; and others Of that kind,
told you the opposite, which would
you believe?
Well, these businessmen have
done just that. In a report just is
sued by the CED COMMITTEE for
Economic Development) these bus
inessmen and many more have
agreed that the real deficit this
year is $5 billion, not $5.5 billion.
And almost SO billion of that is a
homecoming war cost represented
by veterans insurance. That leaves
only $2.2. Ruml, in effect, says it
is less than that--only SO billion.
And then these businessmen say
that full employment this year
would have wiped out that deficit
and created surplus of from
$300, 100000 to $1,600,000,000 for
debt retirement. Furthermore, they
say that with as much unemploy-
ment as we had this year we should
not try to balance the budget.
The report also said that last
year instead of a deficit of $1.8 bill

tried to make political capital out

by cutting taxes two years ago, we
actually had a surplus of 81 billion.

injunction Ends
Cleveland Strike

Cleveland, o. ULNS). -Bowing
to the injunction issued by Judge
Joseph A. Artl, transit strikers
voted to return to work after g.
day tieup of Cleveland's street
ears and buses. In a sweeping court
order, the judge enjoined continu-
ance of the strike and ordered it
ended at 2 p. m. Dec. q.
"It's not my wish that this strike
is ending" said Thomas P. Meany,
president of the local division of
the Amalgamated Association of
Street, Electric Railway and Motor
Coach Employees. "But it's as the
law has ordered. This is a govern
ment by dictatorship, government
by injunction"
END the strike now," Joseph
Masterson, an executive board
member, pleaded. "In March or
April you can go out again. But all
the Cleveland Transit System
wants now is that you don't go
back to work now. A Judge will fine
us $4,000 or 100000. Where will
we get that kind of money!"
There were numerous protests
by disgruntled members against
calling off the strike, but when it
came time for a vote fewer than
so of $500 members who attend
ed the meeting voted against re-
turning to work.
In ending the walkout, the strik-
ers accepted an arbitration ruling
on vacation pay. 1t establishes a
of SO hours pay for op-
Grating employees and 80 hours for
non-operators. The union had de-
manded pay for 96 hours. Other
issues involved in the strike will
be ironed out by negotiations,
Meaney said.
National attention centered on
the court order that terminated the
strike. Judge Artl declared the
strike was unlawful and against
public policy, reiterated the prin-
ciple that public employees had no
right to strike and said the walk
'ut was rebellion against gov
The Judge also invoked for the
irst time the states Ferguson Act,
which prohibits strikes by public
workers. /

EGG PRICE SUPPORT CUT

Washington (LPA) = The Agri-

support farm prices of eggs in
1850 at an average of 81 cents a
dozen, eight cents below this year.
Officials said that should bring re-
tail prices down 8 to 10 cents, and
hopes consumers will use any such
saving in buying more eggs.
Otherwise Uncle Sam will have to
buy up more, and he already has
