JET PLANE !. CRISIS

In fairness to the employees at
 General Electric's Lockland, Ohio,
 plant, it should be noted that the
 recent work stoppage there which
 delayed the production of jet en-
 zines was not due to a strike but to
 shortage of materials, which in turn
 was due to an ALCOA strike. The
 fact is that the UAW-CIO unit at
 the Lockland plant has a no-strike record for which they are to be con- graduated
 Meanwhile, however, the entire jet-engine production picture con- tinues bad, largely because of labor troubles at various factories making key parts The strike at the Borg Warner plants is one of them.
 What this means in Korea boils down briefly to this: Our F-86's are the only jet plane We have that can match the MIG-15's. Yet today our F-86s are outnumbered five to one by the MIG's-due to lack of jet-plane production. Meanwhile, we are losing more jets in Korea than We are producing
 While there is usually something to be said on both sides in labor disputes, and while corporations have netted tremendous profits as this column has frequently re- ported-nevertheless neither labor's case nor arrangements case is im- portant enough to hold up jet pro- duction at this critical time.
 Important development at Pen tagon-Generals Ridgway and Van Fleet have now come around to the Air Force view in the bitter con- troversy over tactical air support. Hitherto, the army has wanted most air force planes operating on closeup tactical support of troops. But now the two top army com- in Korea have told General Bradley that strategic bombing has crippled the Communists and pre- vented them from mounting a fall offensive. As result General Van Fleet cut in half the number of planes to be called for tactical SUD- port of ground troops.In other words, both Ridgway and Van Fleet believe it's more important to bomb enemy bases and supply lines.

practice to his partner, Max Sis kind, who paid him in annual in- stalments.
 The Democrats, many Republicans feel, could score some points on this comparison during campaign.
 Actually. the REC was established for the purpose of helping companies which could not obtain loans rom private banks, and American Lith- ofold might have been in that cate eory. However, it was not so much the REC loan as the way American Lithofold wangled huge printing orders from the government ana paid government officials on the side to get those orders that made the public hold its nose.

BLUE-CHIP HACKERS

Put what worries Republican sen ators about the Gabrielson loan IS that Carthage .Hydrocol appeared not to have needed loan at all.
 It's owners include some .of the r,ost powerful companies in the msA with top credit ratings, ana Inc ahility to borrow millions from tho hanks insurance companies or
 Instead they used politics to get an REC loan of S1a,5oO,ooO. They retained Gabrielson, then asrlslhg figure in the Republican Party, just at a time when the Republicans were nearing their peak power in the l946 election and appeared sure winners of the Presidency in l948.
 Carthage Hydrocol was organized to make gasoline out of methane gas, which is the dry part of nat ural gas and which never before . has been used for gasoline How ever, the experiment, after four years operation near Brownsville, Texas, is reported unsuccessful and COP leaders now fear Democratic charge that the blue-chip packers of the concern are trying to let Uncle Sam share in their loss through the REC.
 Chief packer of Carthage Hydro col is the Texas Company, one Of the largest oil companies in the world with gilt-edge credit. Another owner is United Gas, holding com- pany controlled by Electric Bond and Share, one of the biggest power companies in the world.
 Another owner is Stone and Web- ster, hitherto never known to have been had up for cash. Other own CTS are the Niagara Share Company, the Forest Oil Corp, La Gloria Corp, the Chicago Corp, Newmont Mining CA J. P. Morgan concern), Western Natural Gas, and White, Weld and Co.,, the Boston bankers.
 Another packer is Henry L. Shat tuck, Boston blue-blood financial leader; Robert Winthrop, Boston banker and insurance mogul; Will fam A. Coolidge, another blue-chip banker; and N. c. McGowan, one of the biggest gasmen in the busi- ness.
 The amazing thing is that this group, with unlimited resources, not only wangled an REC loan, but when the loans first instalment

was due, wanted to postpone pay ment. It was last month, when the first $250,000 was due to be repaid the REC, that Chairman Gabrielson approached Stuart Symington and asked for a postponement. Later, when Symington demurred, the in- stallment was paid, but this post ponement move left Gabrielson open to a possible charge that his blue-chip packers wanted to let Uncle Sam hold the bag.
 These are some of the background factors which have caused COP leaders to demand the busting of genial Guy Gahrielson.

SCHOOL LUNCH PRICES
 MAY BE UPPED TO s CENTS

Prices at the school cafeteria for the regular school lunches may have to be upped this year to 35 cents, Superintendent Will liam T. Zahradnicek announced this week.
 The added nickel will offset a drop in the federal subsidy which used to amount to nine cents, or approximately the cost of a bottle of milk. Because of the increase in the number of schools participating in the school lunch program, the amount of the fed eral subsidy has to be spread thinner. No more than six cents was guaranteed for this year. Last year, the Palmer school re- ceived no subsidy from mid-Feb- uary on, and had to operate at a loss.
 ''The school lunch program should be non-proft" Zahradni- eek observed, but it should also pay it's way.
 Lunch will be served for the first time Wednesday, September 5. Tuesdays school session will not last the full day. Manager of the cafeteria this year has not been announced, but the super intendent expected to hire all the personnel needed later this week.
 Through the PTA, Zahradnicek has offered the possibility of per iodically checking of the menus by volunteers trained in dietetics to assure balanced meals. He said the cafeteria would also welcome suggestions for menus from such qualified persons.
