LIFE AT A GLANCE
By DAVID BETHE
Well, Congress is off to a five
months vacation and the lynch
and poll tax bills are still hanging
out in the winds. The weary legis
lators have completed one of the
most momentus sessions in the
history of their wrangling and
sweating with the making of laws.
Some of the laws they have just
passed may well have some ser
ious repercussions in the next few
years to come. Certainly, such
legislation as the labor and rent
bills cannot be marked as bills
which will sail along smoothly
without some heartaches and even
some violent tempers.
Now that all th news ballyhoo
from the Congressional chambers
is at an end for awhile, the pro
fascists moves will become quite
This is a natural tendency since
the/ extreme reactionary forces
are working towards an election
in 1948. From a long range view
point, it seems to me that there
must be something to . offset this
trend. A coalition of all the pro
gressive and democratic-minded
peoples should come forth with
vigor and determination. They
might crystalize into one element
even if it means a Third Party.
Something must be done to re
tard the trend which will still the
advancement of what social gains
that have been accomplished since
1932. I don’t know of a better
man to head this coalition than
Henry Wallace.
In fact, Third Party will be nec
i essary if the Taft-Hartley bill
and Big 'Business is to be foiled
in their creation of more trusts
which will eventually swallow up
the little feller. Such a party
might even be advisable if we are
to stave off another crash such
as fell upon us in 1929. Strangely
enough, human folly does not con
sider the dark pitfalls of its un
scrupulous and avaricious pro
fiteering. It continues on its merry
way until there is a crash of
everything, including economy.
That almost happened in 1929.
Let’s not let it happen in 1950.
Make no mistake. Every means
has been advanced which will nul
lify every vestige of the New Deal.
But the Republicans are very bad
ly disillusioned and so are a lot
of • stale historians. They would
like to take the country back to
the glowing twenties. That would
naturally wipe out all the social
aspects of the Roosevelt Adminis
tration. But strange as it may
seem there is no repeat of his
tory. There may be similarities in
the politics but there are no sta
tus quos in econmies.
Today, we are still enjoying
many of the social benefits which
were established during the incep
tion of the New Deal, despite a
desperate effort to turn the
clock back. But surely and slowly
there is a strong rebellion against
them. The Taft-Hartley bill was
motivated by a desire to eliminate
what was left of the Wagner La
bor Bill. But I am afraid the ex
ponents will discover before many
more months that there is no such
a thing as a return of the Old
Guard methods in labor and econ
omy in a highly industrialized
country such as we have.
In this struggle to turn the
clock back the present Congress
has seen to it that there are no
red lights tosignal the danger of j
high prices. But there is danger
ahead. With that, there is bad
news for the average American
family. A few months from now
clothes, shoes, fuel, milk, sugar j
and eggs are all going to be hiked
to prices beyyond the reach of the
average working man with a
family. But Congress is on a five
months vacation. It is not con
cerned. It was satisfied when it
lifted all controls. But I leave you
with this consolation. There will
be no turning back of the clock.
The democratic and progressive
ive-minded citizens will come to
gether to combat it—even at the
expense of a Third Party.

Writing on clay or stone was Rian’s

BUYER RESISTANCE
IS MYTH
A man who wants to buy a
home has the same attitude •?1
the one who wants to buy a car.
‘ This is indicated in a "con
suemr attitude study’’.
Eighty-four per cent indicated
that they would not buy an auto
moble as against 89 per cent who
would not buy a house.
Those undecided in the “it de
pends” class made up 3 per cent
in the case of both expenditures.
Sponsors of the studp say it re
futes the theory there is general
buyer resistance in the case of
new houses.

Re finishing Cabinets
If the old finish of a metal kitchen
cabinet is not scratched or chipped,
a thorough cleaning to remove any
traces of greasy film, followed by
a light rubbing with very fine sand
paper to dull the gloss of the old
enamel, should be sufficient prepa
ration for refinishing. After wiping
with turpentine or mineral spirits,
apply one or two coats of enamel
undercoater, in accordance with the
manufacturer’s directions on the
can, and finish with a eoat of
enamel of the desired tint.

tween 140 and 240 pounds alive, pro
duce hams, shoulders and sides of

Original Alloy
Prehistoric ornaments of plati
num hammered over gold were
fcrtind in the graves of the priests
and kings of the hncierit Indian in
habitants of Colombia. This was
probably the original idea of com
bining tfafe two rare metals to obtain
the two-tone color effect for jewelry.
Alloy Is' Strong
The green color of emeralds is
due to small quantities of chromium
in the jewels' When this same
chromium is added to steel along

nickel-chrome steel, often used in
gears and axles.
