AFL Blames Business For High Prices

ATLANTIC CITY, N.J., (P1 - The American Federation of La bor has used the opening of its executive council meeting as a chance to blast the high cost of living and predict new price boosts soon.
 But the council avoided saying what should be done about the problem, in a statement issued Monday from behind the closed doors of the economic study ses- sion.
 The council stated definitely, however, that wage increases had nothing to do with the rise in prices. "There is no justification whatsoever for attributing the present price spiral to wage ad- juStments," it said.
 The blame belongs in business and "profiteering. right down the line, from the wholesale to the retail level" said the council.
 In addition to it's cost of living studies, the council looked into a longstanding jurisdictional fight between two member unions, AFL president William Green told a news conference.

Increased Manpower Needs May Force Draft Of 19-Year-OldS Soon

WASHINGTON, (P)-A Selec- tive Service spokesman says in- creased needs for manpower soon may force the drafting of 19-year- olds into the armed services.
 Men 20 and older are now being used to fill draft calls, but an official said the need for more men - as indicated by Mondays call for 47,OOO draftees in October may mean dipping int0 the lower age bracket.
 The October call was an in- crease of 17,00O over the Septem- Der call, and there are indica- tions quotas for the last two months of 1852 may be as high if not higher.
 The Selective Service spokes- man, who asked that he not be quoted by name, could not esti- mate when it may be necessary to draft 19-year-oldS.

General Eisenhower:
 Outlook Not Too Bright For Durable World Peace

DENVER, (P)-Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower says "The outlook is not too bright" for a durable world peace unless Americans gain a thorough understanding of the complex problems involved.
 The Republican presidential nominee told a news conference Monday he'll touch on the sub ject in every campaign speech.
 "The great subject of peace and how to obtain it," the general declared, "overshadows all other subjects because it affects all others"
 But efforts of neWsmen to draw out details of EisenhoWer's cam paign plans got nowhere. The COP standard bearer did say he expects to speak in Philadelphia but that no date has been set. He repeated he will campaign in traditionally Democratic Dixie. And, in response to question, he said no speech yet has been sched- uled for Labor Day.
 He met Monday with Southern packers and with Republican farm leaders in Congress.

It Happens
Sometimes
By FRANK HAEGE
FeYgAs County


the road was just opened up and
we had tomorrow's feed for the cat
tie all loaded, told my wife, Flor
ence, that we'd try to go to Great
Falls early in the morning. She was
more than agreeable and began to
make plans for herself and the chill
dren.
My own plans were simple just
rise a bit earlier and feed the stock
before we left because we planned
on being back that same night. Dad
would take care of the rest of the
morning chores and do them in the
evening Early to bed and early to
rise was the motto that night as
we went to sleep.
The morrow dawned a flawless
day with clear sky and red and
pretty sunrise too red it seemed.
And it was, for by the time came
back to the house with the milk it
was blowing snow but not too badly.
The plan was still in effect, so /
went gaily off to feed, and Florence
got the children and herself ready
to go.
As the sun started to come up so
did the wind and by the time /
finished the feeding it was reg
ular gale and the drifting snow was
real blizzard. / sorta hated to 60
into the house when I got home.
knew that it was too bad even to
try to go, for the plowed-out road
would be completely full in just a
matter of minutes.
Florence was waiting for me to
confirm her suspicious. When she
told the youngsters that we weren't
going, 5-year-old Noel set sail for
her bedroom in full cry and 3-year-
old Stew looked after her to see
what had hit her. He'd open his
mouth and let out a solitary roar
and stop to see if it was agreeable
to Noel. He wasn't sure what he was
to yell about but he wasn't going
to be left out.
don't think that it would have
taken much to make Florence si
down and cry with them, for i
was about the sixth time that TIL,
weather had thrown us curve.
It is funny now to look back ant
see the courses that our energie
took that day. Florence took all he
old cook books apart and realigne,
them into some order of her owl
and tried to better the arrangement
OF her new one. The kids sat on tn
floor by the fireplace and cut u
newspapers and snarled at each 9th
er or anyone that came near then
got out of there in hurry, q
Daddy wasn't too popular just thel
took off to the basement to til
r Pine Room" where I keep the type
writer and worked on income ia
. figures. 1t was depressing job an
only worked at it till noon. Aftt
lunch we all took a good nap an
: tried to forget the days disappoin
ments. In the evening brougl
down the previous days papers ar
read all the fabulous advertisement
of sales that we would have enioye
had we gone. That almost cheert
4 me up, as it saved me lot Of none
i s. that day 80.
