Policy Of Disruption

The soft coal industry is a per-
feet example of industrial chaos.
No one knows, from one week to
the next. whether all of the mines
will work, whether some of the
mines will work, whether none of
the mines will work, or if the
miners will follow a three-day
week, a five-day week, or a no.
day week.
This sort of disruption has been
John l.. Lewis fixed policy. 1t
is, apparently, his method of de-
monstrating that he is Goals car.
Recently, a large number of
soft coal companies have filed pc
titions with the National Labor
Relations board, charging Mr..
Lewis with unfair labor practices,
coercion, and refusal to bargain in
good faith.
The mine operators have repeat
edly offered to sign a contract
continuing the wage rates estab-
lished in 1913, which are the high
est in major industry. They are
willing to continue the same
hours, and to provide other bene-
fits, including a sound pension,

The Cow Story
Up-To-Dote

1t doesn't make any difference
whether you are a Republican, a
Democrat or an Independent, the
following article from the Bern
ice, Louisiana, News-Journal is
good for all to read who wish to
see our American system of rep
resentative government survive.
Capitalism: II you have two
cows, you sell one and buy a bull.
Socialism: II you have two
cows, you give one of them to
your neighbor.
Communism: II you have two
cows, you give them to the gov
eminent and the government
gives you milk.
Fascism: If you have two
cows, you keep the cows and give
the milk to the government.
New Deal: If you have two
cows, you shoot one, milk the
other, then pour the milk down
the drain.
Fair Deal: If you have two
cows, you let them starve so you
can buy your milk in cans, thus
making business better.

The Faith 1hut
Created Anericu

John w. McYherrin, editor Of
the American Druggist, recently
spent five weeks in England
studying socialfed medicine. He
said that Briton seem to have ac-
cepted the ''fale doctrine" that
the state alone IAN bring securi-
ty, though, he added, 81 don't
think they really believe it deep
down in their barts." He quoted
the British heaSh minister, Aneu-
rim Bevin, as swing in a private
interview, "Th method we are
using to provHe health for all
the people will;pread throughout
the world. sub a change is in
evitable. Ameica must come to
it,"
Then he gaw his own view, in
these words: After five weeks
in Great Britiin / came home
with a new reverence for the faith
in mankind that created America.
The same faithdid not create the
welfare state"
The main Importance of social
lied medicine and of the COM
pulsory government health insur-
ance scheme n)w being proposed
for this countrr - is that it is not
a thing compete in itself, but
part of an infinitely larger plan
to give government either owner
ship or absolute control over the
peoples resources and the people
as individuals. According to the
classic communist dogma, social
lied medicine is one of the most
important steps in this direction.
If it cannot be achieved all at
once, an attempt is made to bring
it in by degrees. To take a cur
rent example, Congress now has
before it two bills, one of which
would authorize Federal hand
outs to medical schools, and an
other which would make the gov
erment responsible for the medic
al care of children within certain
age groups. The obvious purpose
is piecemeal Specialization.
The welfare state. in all its
many facets, is the anthithesia Of
what we have believed to be the
American tradition. Sooner or lat
err, it would destroy that tradi-
ton totally.

Sigmund Romberg, whose life

He insists he is a middle brow
composer and that he is happy be-
ing just that. For a man who bears
the impressive label Of Dean Of

admission.
''Most Americans have middle
brow tastes in music. What's wrong
with that?" he says in support Of his
statement that he'd rather write
melodies with a sentiment and a
tune that people can remember and
whistle than heroic arias that al
most no one can sing without weeks
Of hectic practice.
Since Romberg exiled himself to
America 43 years ago to escape his
parents determination to make a
bridge builder out of him, he is
quite content to have the same
tastes as most of the rest of the
people in the United States. ~

If a dish is cracked-but not
broken-put it: in a-pan Of milk
and boil it for forty-five minutes
to obliterate the crack and
strengthen the dish.
For all-around cleaning and
polishing of silverware, a dis
carded powder puff is one of the
handiest things to keep around.
To prevent the glaze on china
ware from cracking, don't pile
freshly washed cups on top of
each other. Spread them out and
give them plenty of time to cool
before they're put away.
When the man of the house
breaks the handle off a teacup,
don't throw the cup away. It's
handy for scooping sugar and
flour out of sacks and canisters.
