Continued from first paSe'


After hearing the petition, the

This firm. incidentally, made the
recent sewer survey for the COM
munity.
A delegation also addressed the
Council from the Milford Airport,

missed investigation and action along

a delegation present from the

MEETING OF MINDS

The White House timetable is
speeding up. In explaining a pre-
Christmas twO-hOur cabinet meet
ing to reporters, Attorney General
J. Howard McGrath said: We
went three times around the world. ."
This is considerably better time
than the President achieved with
the Chiefs of STAFF in the meeting
Immediately following his uneX-
pected return from Key West, when
it took seventy minutes for a
single circum-navigatiOn.
In fact, the cabinet meeting ap-
parently covered even more ground
Asked why it took so long, Nc
Grath said: We like each other
so we'll that we don't like to leave
We talked about Santa Claus. and
decided that he was a pretty good
fellow"
We can't think of any group who
should be more competent author,
tiles on Santa Claus, that is.
Milford chronicle., 1952-01-11

pany when questioned about this
at the meeting said that they would
back this figure to the full extent
of their recourses. Should they .ex-
pect Milford to issue notes on the
better part of $1O0O,OOO on such
unsupported a n d unguaranteed
statements? If we are to risk this
amount of money, they should fur
nish a performance bond to back
up their promise, because if this
statement is wrong, then the whole
proposition is unquestionably
wrong for Milford.
1t is unquestiOnably apparent
that Milford's interest has been
neglected in the preparation OF
this proposal.

We Present Both Sides On
MiIford's Power COntroyersary
THOSE WHO FAVOR RsBUILDlNc
OF LIGHT PLANT

We Of the Power Plant Commit
tee were pleased to see so many
citizens present at the meeting last
Friday night, and / hone they were
amply rewarded for Drawing the
snowstOrm. prom the discussions
at the meeting il became apparent
that there are three main questions
/ TO the proposal as il is now franz
ed. As the purpose Of the meeting
was TO make public the terms OF
the proposal and find any faults
that it might contain, we feel that
a good step forward was made in
bringing these questions TO light.
{ The main defects brought out at
/ the meeting were:
/ l. The fact that the denreciation
OF machinery was not listed as one
Of the generating expenses of pow
er production. (We ask that you
/ refer to paragraph ga Of the pro-
pOsal, which is printed in another
part of this paper) This item, it
was generally supposed by prOpOn-
ents Of the plants, is covered by
the phrase '. and all legitimate
and necessary cost Of generating
the said current to the switch
board -. We shall undertake
to find if this item can be specific
ally added to this paragraph.
2. The fact that interest is not
listed as an operating expense. This
, question, again. we believe was
covered in the phrase mentioned
above; that, we also shall attempt
to have added to the proposal.
3. The fact that this proposal
/. guarantees to the manufacturer Of
the equipment that the electric
rates will not be reduced during
the period Of the contract with the
company This, we believe. can be
adjusted to read that light rates
, should not be reduced beyond the
= rate which the City paid under the
= contract with the Delaware Power
! and Light Co."
We feel that any questions on
q this proposal must be answered by
our city solicitor. After all. we
= aren't lawyers-we are only a
= committee appointed by the mayor
= to come up with facts and figures
- pertaining to the question as L
whether we should generate Oul
y own electricity or continue to pur
= chase
= The plant committee has severa
> things to discuss with the cit,
~ council and the citizens, pertaining
= to this very important question. w
N hope they have the patience {
!, hear this plant committee through
=, The best to you in so.

SCANDALS A CAMPAIGN ISSUE

It's a safe bet that nothing since World
War II, with the single exception of the ko-
rean conflict, has so thoroughly rocked this
as the graft revelations. And, ac-
cOrding to reports on the contents of Con-
gressiOnal mail from the folks back home, |
nothing has so shocked and revOlted the
people
Democratic party chairman Mckinney re- /
Gently said that he is sure the scandals will
not be an issue of the 1852 campaign, on the
grounds that the President and other Demo !
Gratis are handling the situation, and will
clean everything up neatly in short order. |
This, in the view of most observers, is /
whistling in the dark with vengeance. The
graft has been going on too long, and too
many people in key Administration jobs are
directly or indirectly involved. On top Of that,
it was Junior Republican senator, Williams
of Delaware, who. cracked open the tax frauds
and has seen to it that the Investigations
kept going. And it is an interesting fact that
some Democrats who have done valiant work
on behalf of high ethical standards in govern
ment-such as Senators Kefauver and Doug
las-are persona non grata at the White
House
The reaction of the American press to the
scandals has been one of anger-just as was
the case with the scandals of the Harding
tOrial attitude has been turn the raScals
out" This has been buttressed by most of
the cOlumnistS, who are taking similar line
And on the factual Side cOverage Of the news
by both press and radio has been excellent.
The big thing, of course, has been the
graft in the Internal Revenue Bureau. 'ThlS
has completely OVershadOwed the deep freeze
and mink coat episodes, and for an excellent
reason. AS Robert Ruark put it, "We cannot
understand a billion here, billion there, be-
cause so few of US deal in billions that they
just represent long line of ZerOs. We can
not understand the deviatiOns of the state
department. The good Lord knows we can
not understand what has transpired with
prices and ceilings and economics in general,
because it is a solid cinch the people who
perpetrate them do not understand Them
either.
But there is one thing we know, from
Natchez to Mobile, and Memphis to st. Joe
Taxes we know. / know 'em, because / owe
'enl. You know 'em. You know 'em because
they squeeze 'em right out of your tired ole
take-hOme and you never get through the
one year without fretting about the next.
Everyone kicks at the tax collector as {
matter of course, but everyone has believed
that Internal Revenue was honest as they
come Now that the Bureau has taken OF
the smell of an ancient fish, the general pub
lie has turned whopping mad. And on tn,
level of general principle, it seems certain
that many millions of average Americans
feel like Holmes Alexander, who wrote, IN
tramp of foreign invader has so shaken tn,
temple of our freedom like the stealthy trea,
of thieves who are still at large within tn
government. And unless we wake up t
these dangers, the Communist dream of de
caying democracy can become our own night
mare"

STEEL NEED NOT STOP

The United Steelworkers of Am
erica, CIO, $4,000 of them. more
or less, have accepted President
Philip Murray's idea that they
should have 1S12 cents more per
hour beginning January drst, and
agreed to strike unless a new con-
tract provides this hike before De-
cember 81.
The major steel companies say
they must have higher prices 10
grant. higher wages, but there
seems no way the Government can
permit that.
President Truman can ask the
steel workers to please stay on the
job while the Wage Sterilization
Board studies their demands. But
Mr.. Murray says there's no way to
call off the strike or postpone it
until after the unions officers have
a convention January 3 and in
Atlantic City.
7 So it seems there will be a steel
strike, that we'll lose this most
basic of all defense materials at
the rate of two million tons a week
OF course, the President could
keep the mills rolling by issuing
an eighty-day nO-strike order un-
der the national emergency pro-
visions Of the Taft-Hartley Act L
was for exactly this sort of stu
alton that the Act was designed
and passed and signed into law
But Mr.. Truman has indicated h'
doesn't like this law.

SHOPPING IN RUSSIA


1t would be good thing if every Ameri-
can-in this era in which the free enter
prise system is under constant attack from
within and withOut-cOuld pay visit to a
retail store in Russia or one of the other
communist countries. That would provide
an excellent practical test of the difference
between a free competitive economy, and a
controlled, tOtalitarian economy.
In the Russian store, the visitor would
find that all goods were rigidly ratiOned-
the average citizen is allowed to buy Just
enough to live at a subsistence level. Prices,
of course, are fixed by the government at
whatever level the masters of the nation
desire-and, save for a few such staples as
bread and potatoes, the prices are always
extremely high in terms of the earning pow
er Of the masses. High prices are a deliber-
ate communist device by which earnings are
Immediately siphOned back in the Golfers of

There is no competition, in our Under
standing of that word. The government con.
trOlS everything, and directly owns practi-
cally everything, all the way from farm and
factory to the store. Even the most modest
luXurieS are unknown. And many of the
necessities are constantly in short supply
so that even meager legal ratiOns cannot be
filled.
