We Could Do Without
Beooors And Poor Houses
Continued from Page l

We contend that by providing decent
retirement plans for our aged people; by
making it possible for them to continue to
be a part of our consuming public with
their own purchasing power; by creating
job opportunities for our younger people
through our retirement plans - we can
say that such plan can be of major inn
portance in keeping the wheels of our in
dustry moving and thus mitigating the
factors that lead to economic collapse {.
to depressions.

Act. They, the Congress, did this by re-
fusing to enforce the payroll deductions,
together with deductions from the en-
ployers, as provided for originally.
Il
A S A MATTER OF FACT, the Congress
"A refused to heed any and all demands
on the part of Organized Labor and other
responsible groups for improvements in
our federal laws until-despairing at the
callused responsibility of the Congress
Organized Labor launched its campaign
to supplement what ever federal aid our
people were getting through privately in
stituted pension and medical plans.
This is the situation that gave birth to
the Ford Pension and Medical plan.
This is the situation that brought about
pensions in the coal fields and In the steel
industry.
And now, the clamor Is on to force
private industry to provide similar bene-
fits to workers all over the country
Certainly, the situation that we have
facing us In Toledo was born out of those
same conditions.

A ND 1T ISN'T too difficult to under
"A stand why labor unions began to de-
mand pensions from their employers, Pen
sion plans are certainly not new in private
enterprise. Particularly insofar as the Big
Shots of private enterprise are concerned.
We know that every single industrialist-
with practically no exceptions-are pro-
vided very, very generous retirement
plans pensions for their old age. We
know, too, that business generally have
been enjoying one bonbanza year after
another throughout the last decade.
Furthermore it wasn't too difficult
for Organized Labor to realize that their
clamor for old age security from the Fed
eral Government was opposed most bitterly
by these same industrialists, bankers, and
other wealthy people who themselves
were provided for in most lucrative
sense For example, the head of Bethle-
hem Steel is slated to retreat the age
of 65-on 'pittance" of 100000 pen
sion" per year.

Why Grow Old?
Do You Know How to Sit?

lens. When you are going to sit
down, turn your back toward the
chair. Place the left foot behind
the right, tuck the hips under,
spread the lower back by separat-
ing the shoulder blades and pull
ing them down, stretch the spine,
lengthen the neck, and sit on the
edge of the chair. After this you
can slide back in the chair, touch
ing the hips to the back and rest
ing your back against the back of
the chair.
Your pelvis will still be tilted
forward, your back straight and
your head gracefully poised on the
top Of your spine. Actually, this
is much more re3tful than
slu.nped position and is certainly
more beautiful.
Practice this and after a while
you will find that you can do it
naturally, without effort.
Posture makes the woman and
her figure.

am giving you a few simple ex-
ercises this week. These are some
from Sara Mildred Strauss. dance
director and choreographer and
teacher of exercise.
AS I have said this week. Miss
Strauss feels that the body should
be kept in perfect alignment at all
times during an exercise. For this
reason the knees are partly bent
even in the supine position. Lie
on the floor in the position de-
scribed yesterday. While in this
position raise the right leg and
bend the knee UP toward the alb

This time bend the left knee UP
toward the abdor- '?ht knee
remains hexed. Continue, alter
mating right and left. Be sure to
keep the pelvis tilted forward and
the back pressed against the floor
during the exercise. Do it slowly
and thoughtfully.
It is a shame the way women
fall into chairs and slump in them.
This Is not only very awkward in
appearance but 1t emphasizes poor
posture and promotes figure prob

Notes

Each fashion editor has her
pet love in the fashion business.
Some editors are but simply mad
about dresses. Others 60 crazy
for hats. Newell, I happen to
be completely sold on the idea
that shoes are really important
items in a wardrobe. I like
shoes. Know, too. that my lik-
ing is shared by any number of
women throughout the world.
Also know that the shoe business
is fascinating in all Of it's as
poets and that the people who
make it UP are equally fascinat-
ing to listen to.
That's just what I did the
other morning. listened to Lew
s. Birns, a man who has been in
the shoe business for over 40
years-23 of them in Washing
ton. The coffee was good, and
Mr.. Birns' remarks just as good.
Mr.. Birns, who makes a point
OF attending the big shoe shows
throughout the country, and in
Chicago and New York in par
ticular. feels that by doing so he
keeps abreast of trends and is
able to get a fair idea Of what
other leading cities are doing
shoe-wise.
He told us that three items
are usually stressed at these big
shoe shows: Cd Color and ma
terial, CD heel heights-present
indications veer toward lower
heels but in the definitely
shaped realm. 90 types of shoes

You're fooling nobody, say the
Powers Girls. when you buy a
plain little evening dress with
the idea of lifting its face with
new accessories every time you
wear 1t. For the belle-o the ball
look, it's better to own one super
dooper decolletage and wear it as
is forever!
Such a treasure will be far more
devastating to your beaux than

fashionwise-perhaps wiser.
There is wisdom, too, in the

no choice is the hemline. The
