fort and convenience of Negro
"Among Negroes, the average
iimcrow car has a bad name, not
because it has been set apart from
him and he has to occupy it, but
because usually it is a substand-
ard coach. 1t is separate but lar
from equal. 1t is not as good as
the coaches furnished white pat
rons. I
"The biggest kick Negro pat
rons make is that their accommo-
dations are too small ). that often
the segregated coach is used as a
smoker and lounge car in free
territory. Then, when jimcrow
territory is reached and Negro
passengers must ride in it, it is
unkempt and offensive.
"The pride of the Negro is in
jured enough when he is forced to
move to his now little place. AT
least his place might be kept clean
and ready for his occupancy"
A similar situation is found in
the terminal facilities furnished
Negroes in the south.
Harris also advocates that
courtesy and service" be stressed
to Negro patrons, that the subor-
dinate employee be given adequate
training before they are placed in
positions "where they must deal
with the general public, both white
and Negro"
In addition, he suggests that
the railroads follow the pattern
laid down by various industries of
hiring Negroes as representatives
to build up the trade among mem
bers of their own race.
"Negro traffic is growing today,
just as our population is growing.
Negro intelligence is also growing.
And tough, hard, old independent
Americanism is also growing in
the heart and soul of every Ameri-
can Negro. No real American can
condemn the tan-American for
wanting everything due him.
"The means of transportation
that gives the Negro patron fair,
equal and courteous service, that
does all possible to abolish the
mild forms of racial discrimination
that acts as if it appreciates his
patronage and cultivates it; that
lands him at his destination, glad
he made the trip and mad at no.

ton is going to get most of his

Marshall Sees Need
For 'ExpandabIe' Plan
To Build Up Arms
By the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Nov. 30.-Secre-
tary Of Defense Marshall says the
Korean situation calls for a par
tial mobilization in this country
keyed to become full mobilization
almost instantaneously."
Gen. Marshall spoke last night
at a $500-a-plate Embarrassing
dinner for three educational insti-
tutions in Israel. The affair was
sponsored by the American Com
mittee for the Hebrew University.
Weizmann Institute of Science and
Technion "a technical institution) /
Looks to u. N. Decisions.
Terming the turn of events in
Korea critical" Gen. Marshall
urged an immediate but partial
United States mobilization organ
lied to "set itself automatically
and almost instantaneously to full
mobilization If that becomes nec-
essary."
He recommended a rapidly ex-
pandable" system for building up
war supplies-a system Of tools
and assembly lines that will en-
able us quickly to increase pro-
duction as it is needed, and not
just setting about building up
great piles of things and having
them grow obsolescent."
Full mobilization now, he said,
would be 'ill-advised" and he
urged that I'VE look with the most
intense interest to the considera-
ton and decision of the United
Nations"
Sees Long Period of Tension.
The Defense Secretary added:
Il say at the very best we have
to face long period of tension.
That is something the American
people has never been called upon
to do"
The dinner meeting at the
Waldorf-Astoria Hotel also cele-
brated the 10th birthady of Is
raeli President Chain Weizmann.
The American committee was
organized earlier this year, with

Tox High Profits
THE GOVERNMENTS b

TTNHE GOVERNMENTS Bureau of Agricul-
IL tural Economics reports that despite in
creased production in practically every field
the consumers should expect higher prices dur
ing the coming year and half. We will have
more dollars, they tell us, but it won't be worth
as much as dollar is worth even today.
OF course, the reason for that is simple
enough The large corporations, their huge and
abnormal profits totally unrestricted, hike their
prices continually without reason. They not
satisfied with their already incredibly h G h
profits They want more. So they tax the traffic
for all it is able to bear. And frequently enough
far beyond that point
OF course, the immediate solution to this
problem is an equitable excess profits tax"
The Congress should Immediately pass this law
and make it effective at once. Let these huge
corporations realize that hiking prices on the
consumers will not mean more profits to them
There is sound reason why the current rate
of net earnings for these corporations should
run on an annual average of $40 billion when
in 1916 - in itself record smashing year
it had reached the already fantastic level of
about $40 billion.
Unless ways and means are found to bring
wages, prices and profits into proper relation
ship our economic structure is sure to suffer
In the future.

Tuff Doesn't Like People

III HAS LONG been known that % ert
III Alphonso Taft, us. Senator from Ohio now
fighting desperately for reelection is cold as
fish He does not like people. He avoids people
whenever he He mingles with people only
because he feels that that is the only way he
can get some of them to vote for him
He became so sensitive this point that in
the current campaign Mr.. Robert A. Taft sud
denly became Bob" Taft His well-paid pub
licity and public relations men have done just
about everything in their power to make their
candidate look human. But that is truly diff
cult if not an impossible task. And more than
anyone else Taft himself makes it SO.
The other day, for example, Taft was be-
seeched by group of high school teen-agers
in a small town for his autograph. Taft, much
as he hated to 90 it, had to come across. He
dutifully signed his name to whatever was of
fered to him. But at the end, when it was all
over, he m d e the following Characteristic
statement:
Autographs take longer than shaking
hands,"
There you have it. Stay away from the peo-
pie; have as little to do with 'em as possible,
even though you put on false, hypocritical
and mechanical smile to show them how much
you really enjoy their company and especially
their votes on election day.
Taft, of course, is working like mad TO re-
tain his office. With merely three weeks to 60
in the campaign, he has already made upwards
of 762 speeches, 1856 of them over the radio and
Is ON television He has visited every one of
Ohio's 88 counties of them many
times over.
Taft is desperate He fears defeat at the
polls more than anything else. He wants TO get
back to Washington SO he can try for the Presi-
dency again in 1854
But above everything else he wants to keep
his job so he can continue serving Big Business
just as faithfully, just as energetically in the
future as he has done in the past
But that is precisely the reason why Ohio
voters, sparked by unprecedented united
front on the part of every labor organization,
are out to retire him. The common people have
had enough of Mr.. Republican. And MIR. Re-
publican - together with his Big Business
buddies. his seemingly unlimited slush fund
- can and will be defeated come Nov. 7th.
Joe Ferguson, the candidate of the common
people should and will take his place in the

If all of us turn out TO vote on election day
the victory for Joe Ferguson, for Tom Burke
in our own Congressional district is assured.

International Vice President

There's a big Taft ad running in the Blade
every day now, trying to sell union men some
fancy twists.
These ads won't get very far, because the
union people in Toledo can see through
phonies who spend six years knocking their
ears back, and six weeks making love to them.
But the one on Wednesday gives me a great
chance to make point.
1t says: Under the Taft-Hartley Act, your
union cannot charge you excessive dues and
assessments
What we know in Toledo is that under
Democracy in labor unions h e problem
doesn't come up. The union members vote for
or against any changes in their dues structure,
and whatever the dues and assessments turn
out to be, they decided it.
You don't need a Republican law to run
these things for you = not if you act like
good u n j o n member and vote in your own
union elections.
That's just the trouble with this man Taft.
He doesn't understand Democracy. He thinks
Democracy is Socialism, and he goes around
saying
We are little more mature in labor union
ism in Toledo than lot of places. We built our
union the hard way. 1t took long time, and
there was lot of opposition. In fact, there
still is Dirty oposition.
And we know, IN IOledO that the very I1rSt
thing you fight to safeguard is your Demo-
cratic control of your own affairs. You don't
hand it over to Republicans in Washington;
you don't act on an individual basis and hire
a lawyer and fight for your own personal adj
vantage.
You vote
And if you vote a new dues structure your
selves, what business is it of Taft or his Taft
Hartley Act to tell you that you had no Demo-
cratic right to run your own affairs?
This isn't all that's the matter with Taft by
any means. The is just good for the
country, for labor for Democracy.
But kind of think that this one point
that he wants to decide your internal affairs in
Washington is enough to show you how
important it is to vote November - and
vote for Joseph 7. Ferguson
You keep your union Democratic in Toledo
by voting OUT the man who put Taft-Hartley
you, and run it against you) from
Washington.
Good union members will VOTE on Novem-
Der 7, if they never voted before.

The scientist speaks glibly oi
gerontology. But the people he's
talking about know it better un-
der simpler words: the peculiar
problems of old age.
These problems are going to get
an airing here next week at the
first nationwide conference on
aging. The Federal Security Ad-
ministration is making the plans
at the suggestion of President
Truman.
Maybe you hadn't realized it.
but America is growing old. In
1900, 4 per cent of the people in
the United States were IS or older
Now the percentage is grown to
76. That's more than IL million
old people.
Old people?
Well, it depends on how old you
are. When you're 10, everyone
over 80 seems equally ancient and
uninteresting. But when you hit
65 you still may feel like kid.
At least that's the impression
gathered from letters that have
rolled into the Federal Security
Agency since the old-age confer
ence was announced.

InstoIIment Buying Curbs Seen
Soon After Defense Bill Passes

Within two weeks after enact
ment Of a consumer credit section
of the Defense Production Bill, it
is expected, installment buying
will be restricted. That may come
even before material allocations
and prioritieS under the same act
are imposed on industry.
Retailers, finance companies,
bankers and others have been
working for the last week with
r. M. Evans, one of the Federal
Reserve Board governors, on a
program of cooperation.
Assuming that the Federal re-
serve system will manage all
credit restrictions through its
branches, Regulation W." Of the
last war is expected to be rein
stated as soon as the act is effec-
tive.
This would mean that financing
of all inStallment sales would, re-
quire initial payments and a def
mite period for making up the
balance.
While no ratios have been fixed
SO far it is expected that on home
appliances - washers, refrigera-
tors, radios, sweepers and the like
initial payments of 10 to Is per
cent will be required.
No more than 18 months would
be allowed for paying the bal
ance.
Home Terms frightened.
Automobiles probably would
continue selling, as they are now,
at around one-third down-cash
or trade-in-with an 18-month
payup limit.
Home-buying terms already
have been frightened up, resulting
in insured loan requirements by
the Federal Housing Administra-
tion of larger down payments and
smaller mortgages. Whether this
will be restricted further is doubt
full now, although one section of
the control act would let the
President make any real estate
credit regulations he cares to.
The House bill still contains
this section, which is highly OBJ
jectionable to the real estate in
industry.
The retailers are giving an ex-
cellent example of how business
is working with the Government
on all regulations expected to
come In the control act.
More than l million retailers,
plus some 80 State merchant as
sociations, formed a consumer
credit task committee. Under the
Craftsmanship of William j. Chey-
ney, director Of the Retail Credit
Institute Of Washington, this task
committee has been meeting al
most daily with the reserve board

which split their effectiveness in

they can present a solid front.
Meanwhile, committees for in
