Letters to The Star

to have our men in the armed services,
praise and gratitude toward the Ameri-
can serviceman will carry a much more
powerful punch than criticism and un-
gratefulness, and would perhaps be so
refreshing to the one with the weakest
will as to make him feel lesser need for
drink
Let us who live in glass houses not
throw stones" Let us win the con-
fldence of our servicemen. Let us,
thereby, then win our Allies.
Rose Ellen FOrwe.
Rood to Town
I enjoyed immensely the letter by
Star, February 26. under the caption,
LEST We Forget It: The Road to Town"
Would the writer of the letter indicate
the State through which the road ran.
and the town to which it led? It would
be very interesting to have this in
formation.

child with my uncle in Loudoun County.

down the mountain by the back road"
to Leesburg. The time was a frosty
midwinter morning in the early l900s.
Icicles arched above the road and our
buggy slipped along hard. snowy track.
The horse. Coaly, picked her way
carefully. and her breath froze in the
air. For us the cold was completely
nullified by hot bricks my aunt had
placed in the buggy at our feet before
we started on our 13-mile, three-hour
trip.

Toledo Needs New Dolly Newspaper


The year Gene Fiske was
elected president of the Guild,
the CIO union at the Blade and
Times, the election was held in
TIUC hall. ~ ~
About 25 per cent of the
membership voted.
This year he's n n N 6 for
vice p r e d nj t of the Guild.
Maybe he's campaigning on the
platform of Down With Gosser
and Up With-M Martin.
But if anyone knows better
than to criticize small u n o n
turn-outs it's an ex-oficer of
the Toledo Newspaper Guild.

Okay, brothers and sisters. Let's look it over
Who lied to you? Who told you the truth?
You got stabilized all right. Your wages got
stabilized DOWN and, prices got stabilized UP.
Your costs are balloning and your wages are
frozen. Tssx
The pay check at which you're frozen is go
ing to shrink. They're going to tax YOU to pay
the profits the corporations will make from de
tense. That tax is going to be deep - and it's
going to be cut in take home pay.
How about prices, while you pay for this
defense program?
Look at them. Ask the housewife.
They go up every day. Food you bought yes
terday will be higher tomorrow. You'll find a
can of peas with prices crossed out and higher

Sure. You've been Stabilized by the biggest
business executives in the country. They're rum
ming the government now - and somebody voted
to give them the chance. Last November the
union papers were laughed at, and somebody be-
ieved the Blade and the Times
But we told you it would be like this, and
they told you different.
Prices, of course, should be rolled back to
the prices prevailing in January 1850.
Wages should be adjusted upward and then
the economy should be frozen.
That's how your FRIENDS in Congress would
have voted, if they had been elected. We told you

There's no point in hard lesson if we don't
learn the lesson.
So we're going to rub it in little, to make
sure one misses the point
Just over three months ago the Journal was
saying: "A vote for Taft and the Reactionaries is
vote for PAY CUT"
We warned you that if your friends in Wash
ington lost, and if the enemies of the people -
from Taft on down were to win in Novem-

of his paycheck.
Meanwhile the Block papers - the Times

they said.

Riverdale, Md.
In a suit filed in District Court
yesterday. Mrs. Windsor asserted
that while getting a hair-wave at
a beauty salon in the 600 block OF
18th street NV, her scalp was
badly burned. permanent bald
patches remain and her hair will
not take a curl.
The defendant tried to remedy
the condition, the suit charges
but the treatment failed and
caused the remaining hair tc
turn various colors."
Mrs. Windsor asks $4,000 dam
ages, and her husband Irving w
Windsor, asks an additional $500
for medical expenses and incon-
venience allegedly resulting from
the wave treatment. The suit was
filed by Attorney Howard ]. Nc
