All organized labor is supporting the campaign.
Discovering that it would take little than 1000
dimes to the street scale model of Mooseheart
Ill., the "Chd City maintained and operated by the Loyal
Order of Moose the orphan residents of that city decided

turn the money to the Kane County, Ill., March of

Mooseheart children became of the dangers of

The Foundations Kane County, ILL.,, chairman, Marshall
Glenn, of Aurora said he believed it the first time in

No Floods In The Valley

The Ohio the Wabash and the Mississippi Rivers have
made 1850 already of the worst flood history
Thousands of the river valleys have suffered and
lost their homes. Millions Of dollars in damage has been
done. Precious top soil has washed away
The Missouri and Columbia Rivers also have threatened
to spill their banks In the past five years. those two
streams have flooded millions of and done billions of
dollars in damage
Residents living along the Tennessee River however,
don't have to fear floods Why? The answer course

We have been told that IVA is impractical That it is

Not Complete

Voluntary health insurance plans valuable they are
not the to the nations health need the Commit
tee on Research in Medical Economics makes plain
Returning emphatic mo" to the question "Are vol
untary plans compee?" the committee shows that most
voluntary plans do not offer complete protection against
costs of sickness 1t offers the following facts to support its
contention
Voluntary health insurance plans paid less than 10 per-
cent of the nations medical bill in 1947 Here the break
down:
disqualification plansBlue Cross-pay only II percent
of average famlys medical bill disqualification and doctors
services in hosptal-Bue Cross and Blue Shied-ony 35
percent of average family's medical bill.
Few plans approved by the American Medical AsSoca-
tion offer all these, the committee says:
Preventive medicine; nocuation pre- and post natal
eyeglasses; medical at patients home doctors

Chamber President Vents Labor Dept.
To Chance Functions

President Herman w. Seinkraus believes that Busi-
nessen-but not workers-shoud have agency of the
Federal Government devoted to their interests.
Steinkraus wants to abolish the Department of Labor
because it helps only workers. He would substitute De-
partment of Labor and Management.
The Department of Commerce was set up to help bus-
So, to follow Stenkraus' logic it too should be
abolished 1t aids only segment of the population.
But would Stenkfaus like to the Commerce Depart

tional anthem.
Steinkraus proposal is twist in the continuing

Reultors Mum About This
Question for the real estate lobbyists;

Question for the real estate lobbyists:
When is Socialism" not socialism?
The question is asked in all seriousness Week IN and
week out you lobbyists tell that programs like Federal
aid for cooperative housing sm clearance and public hous
ing ''socastic."
But you whisper Socialism about the same
sort of Federal aid program which insures mortgages
homes You know that That's the that takes the
risk out of the mortgage business.
All this is mentioned because the Federal Housing Ad
mnistration reports insured almost $4 billion in loans
nearly half a million new homes last year
You lobbyists don't have to be reminded that than
million homes and apartments started in 1919 Which
that the FILA aided in the construction of half OF
those.
In other words, the Federal Govenment-yes, those
awful awful bureaucrats- lot to do with making 1949
the most prosperous in real estate history After ALL
how many of those half million homes would have been built
if there had been no mortgage insurance program?
Got an answer to that socialism" question yet?

Big Profits Fine. But High Wages Bad.
Says Steel Boss Fdirless

It's good thing for business to make bigger and better
profits year after year But it's "nfatonary dangerous
to the economy and disastrous when workers want their
pay to increase each year.
That's the substance of the testimony of Benjamin f.
Faess president of the monster IT, S. Steel Corporation
before the Joint Congressional Committee the Economic
Report
Faress says that Omitted States Steel has not made
fair return either its sales investment at time dur
ing the last 20 years. And that's why he continues prices
had to be increased
Sen Joseph c. OMahoney Cd, Wyo) committee
chairman points out that IT, S. Steel made twice much
money last year in 1913 The company made than
10 per cent its investment in 1919 compared with 30
year average Of close 10 per cent.
Significantly Fairless would not say what he consider
ed a fair return"
All of which raises this question: Why is it that bigger
profits hurt the nation in the thinking of steel indus
try, while higher wages always viewed dangerous

Mild Proposed

What the employment security program is dong for all
segmens of the economy too widely recognized and APP
proved to permit anything except constructive criticism,
Secretary of Labor Maurice obn recently pointed out
From many quarters, he continued, comes call for
broader employment service for increased unemployment
compensation, for protection Of groups excluded for
frightening Of the duration of benefitsn short for
greater security for work force and society,"
Secretary obin said that President Truman had this in
mind when urging liberalization of the unemployment bene
fit system he asked specifically that these standards should
provide benefits for 26 weeks ranging to $50 week for
single individuals with additional amounts for dependents
Tobin commented This is mild proposal. Thirty
dollars today represents in terms of food S14l6 in 1889 in
terms of all itemsrent food clothing, and the ket has
the purchasing power of $l770 in 1889"
