Working Women

In many parts of the country, married
women in droves are quitting the home to
take jobs in industry-but not SO in Noble
county.
In most cases, this increase in the num-
ber of working wives is tied up with the cost
of living, states the Department of Com
merce. Most of the women entering the labor
force are doing so to help their husbands
cope with the household budget.
Generally" it points out, "the lower the
husbands income the more likely his wife
is to get job"
Latest Census Bureau figures show that
the proportion of Noble countys female pop
ulation, single or married. in the labor force
is below average.
Locally, only 149 percent of all women
above the age of ID hold outside jobs This
compares with 289 percent in the United
States and 282 percent in the State of Ohio.
The actual figures were 648 in the local
labor force out of total of 4,348 women over
the age of a. While there has been an IN
crease lately, it has not been on the scale re-

Soft Drinks In
Cans Can Save
Holiday Space

Space in your refrigerator IS
at a premium at Christmas time.
That's why smart homemakers
do everything possible to con-
serve storage space. One valu-
able tip is to buy your soft drinks
in cans.
They store much more easily
- and if unexpected company
arrives and depletes your stock
of the canned drinks, you'll find
that extra cans popped into the
refrigerator will be ready fol
drinking in a remarkably short
time. That's because the canned
drinks chill much more quickly
The fact that the cans won''
break and that they don't have
to be returned for redemption
of a deposit are just two othel
reasons why women have foun<
the canned drinks to be so con
venient.

ported for other areas.
Although the number of working wives
has been rising, the number of single work
ing women has been dropping, notes the our
eau 1t attributes this to the fact that there
are now fewer single young women in the
population because of an increased rate of
marriages in recent years"
Currently, it reports, 60 percent of the
women in the labor force are married, COM
pared with As percent in the years immed-
lately following World War 2.
In Noble county, in contrast to the situa-
tion in many areas, only 160 percent of the
jobs locally are held by women.
Elsewhere in the United States, women
hold 27.4 percent of all jobs, and in the State
of Ohio, 28.2 percent
A Government survey, made a few years
ago, showed that SIS percent of wives whose
husbands earned less than $4,000 went tt
work, that only 80 percent worked wher
their husbands earned from $4,000 to $1,000
and less than percent when their husband
reached the $1,000 to $4,000 bracket.

BIGGEST DAM PROPOSALS
BY George Peck

The socialized electric power
proponents have read into
what happened last November
4 that the American taxpay-
er is clamoring for more and
more government in busi-
ness" with public power de-
velopment projects leading the
parade. As a result of this in
depreciation of the election re-
suits, we can now look for
deluge at Washington of DAM
proposals which both in size
and number will be the big
gest DAM proposals to date.
But in our humble opinion,
we believe the socialized pow
er zealots are misinterpreting
the feeling of the average tax
payer toward government pro-
duction and sale of electric
energy. Despite the flood of
propaganda on behalf of social
lized electric power which has
flowed from iva and other
similar socialized government
agencies; despite the false
charges that have been made
against the investor-owned,

Borrowing To Buy Major Appliance,
For YuIe Giving Is Now Pleasant

The same consideration ex-
tends to Texas where the con-
sensus of opinions from bankers
was that they weathered recess
sions, strikes, and even a depres-
sion and had always met their
customers as individuals and
handled each loan with patience
and understanding. Throughout
the Southwest and over to the
Pacific coast, the same thought
prevailed. The bankers would
continue their long-standing
policy of fair consideration to
borrowers.
From Nashua, New Hamp-
shire, came this welcome com
ment: ''This bank is very much
aware of the fact that if man
has trouble, he is still the same
man of whom we thought o.
pretty highly when we made
him the loan"

A recent national survey of
100 leading bankers undertaken
by the American Banker reveal
ed the faith these responsible
men of business have ir their
borrowers. One hundred per
cent of them said they are
ready and willing to help good
customers during periods of un-
certainty such as reduced income,
temporary layoff and unemploy-
ment.
Here are some typical COM
ments gathered from bankers
around the United States:

utility companies, the Ameri-
can public slowly but surely
has been learning that there
is nothing cheap" about
public power.
AS a case in point, while the
Democrat Party was sweeping
the nation on Tuesday, Novem-
Der 4, voters in the State of
Oregon were presented with
three proposals which involved
the development of govern
ment-financed electric power
projects. They said "NO" on
all three.
One proposal that the Ore
gon voters rejected was an
amendment to the State Con-
stitution authorizing the State
to engage in the development
and sale of electric power. The
amendment covered the water
front it would have auth
orized the State to generate
power by hydro, steam or nu-
clear development.
The voters of the City Of
Portland registered their dis
like of public power - they
turned down a proposal for a
$5 million hydro-electric bond
issue to install generators at
the city's water supply source.

Speaking in Columbus the other day, one
Of the nations most noted educators, DR..
James B. Conant, president emeritus OF Har-
ward University, touched on problem that
long has been disturbing many ONO school
officials.
The problem is that of the states many
small scattered high schools. A recent esti-
mate is that "a per cent of OhloS public
school students are in schools with less than
100 graduates year.
Most local communities are proud of
their schools; in many areas they are the CEN
ter of community activity Bitter fights have
developed in various parts of the state over
consolidation of school districts.
Not overlooking local pride and the basic
philosophy that schools should belong to
those who support them, it must be admitted
that an educational program sufficiently
broad to care for the wide differences in abili-
ties of pupils is difficult to provide in the
small high school at reasonable cost.
School programs should be broad enough
to provide educational opportunities for all
pupils including those going to college, those
graduating from high school and not going
to college, those dropping out of school be-
fore reaching grade Il, the physically and
mentally handicapped and the bright and
gifted pupils
Some of the essential services in addition
to classroom instruction should also be pro-
vided, such as health services, library serv-
ices, audio-vsual aids, guidance services, cor
rective instruction for pupils with speech de-
fects remedial reading, and physical and rec
reational activities.
From an economic point of view, tax re-
sources available in small school districts
where small high schools are usually found
are generally inadequate to provide 1ull ed
ucational programs at reasonable costs.
One of the most serious factors involving
the small high school is the effective use of

with Rep. John Henderson

The Congressional election in
Alaska this week brought the
reality of Statehood one step
closer for the far-northern ter
ritory. Early next year the new
State will be represented by one
Congressman in the House of
Representatives and two Sen
ators. Although representative
will be complete in Congress, the
new State will not take its place
in the Nations flag for some
months to come.
Since midsummer, / have re-
ceived many inquiries from
Southeastern Ohioans for infor-
nation about the redesign of
the. flag and when the "Old
Glory" of the 48 stars will be-
come obsolete. Actually, the new
flag will be some time in COM
ing. It's design is yet to be deter
mined and a special Presidential
Commission to assist in selecting
the arrangement of the 49 stars
is now working to sort through
| suggestions which have poured
in from all parts of the country.
AS a matter of fact, over 1900
suggestions have been received
thus far. When the flag Is
designed, it may not be flown
before July 4, 1859.
Another complication comes
from the question Of statehood
4 for Hawaii, an issue awaiting
the assembling of Congress next
January. Senate leaders of both
political parties have made pub.
lie statements recently attestins
that strong sentiment exists fol
statehood for the Pacific Islands
A filibuster wherein efforts
would be made to talk the ad
mission bill to death has alst
been limited by anti-statehoot
Senators. Hawaiis chances q
becoming the fiftieth state in thu
. union appear to be improved
even though there still are seri
Gus impediments in the way
Nevertheless, our prospective

arising from the air we breathe.
The conference served to, drama
tize a situation which IS neither
new nor neglected. However, 1t
would seem that there is need
to coordinate information and
define responsibilities of nation-
al, state and local governments,
private individuals, and indus
trial groups to make more rapid
advances.
The most outstanding conclu-
sion was the singlemindedness
of the conferees on the need for
more medical research to reduce
the number of unknown factors
preventing progress today. Pos
sible relationships of asthma

luted air in urban areas neec

elements in the air are the
trouble-makers and how they
may be screened out in our chin
neys and automobile exhaust are
also major problems.
There is Federal legislation II

first air pollution bill was passed
This authorized research and al

"Just take the chicks one at a
