Under a Var gas decree Issued Inst March elections were to have been held oil December 2, and in these elec tions Vargas was NOT to be a candidate. For sortie reason not yet ap parent, the Army decided to take matters into its hands. Tanks and troops were used In Rio. It was evidently too much for Vargas, who resigned. He is succeeded UNTIL the December 2 elections by the chief Justice of the Bra zillan supreme court. By Charles V. Stentoa President Truman in his address to the nation Tuesday night offered a solution to the country's labor problems, but such solution can be applied only if disputants act in GOOD FAITH. Tne president's speech actually was a plea for application of the Golden Rule to our tangled labor situa tion and is not apt to produce desired results as long as selfishness, greed, and intolerance are permitted at con ference tables. There can be little doubt in anyone's mind that our labor difficulties could be settled over-night if all parties con cerned would deliberate and act in GOOD FAITH. But, instead, labor and management each seek advantages at the expense of the other. Compromises are secured only through exercise of force. "Industry as a whole," the president said, "is able to absorb substantial wage increases without price increases." But let's examine into that statement from the angle of the actual dispute now in progress. Labor is endeavoring to secure for 40 hours of work the same take-home pay received for 52 hours .during wartime production. If -we .could definitely peg the value of an hour's work, based upon the nature of labor performed, responsibility involved and other contributing factors, the problem would not be difficult of solution. But the general policy of organized labor is to obtain wage scales as high as industry can AFFORD to pay. During the war period both wages and profits have been high. It is true that in nearly all lines of industry and business profits have been above normal, even after taxes. Labor now demands that wages be maintained at the same high levels which prevailed during the war produc tion period. In order to produce an adequate supply of war materials, labor was forced to work longer hours for which overtime pay was received. With a return to produc tion.fbr civilian consumption only, pressure for manufac ture of goods in great volume is off and industry can return to a shorter work week. But labor demands that take-home pay remain approximately the same as before. On the other hand, industry has enjoyed a period of high profits. Industry is no more inclined to discount profits than labor is willing to accept reduced wage scales. Both propose to retain positions attained during the period of wartime prosperity. Industry, therefore, contends that f wages are increased prices must be advanced in propor tion. But if such scheme is followed the inflationary spiral will be on, with disaster in prospect for the nation as a whole. Labor is not objecting seriously to price increases, know ing that through its organization it can obtain corresponding wage boosts to meet moderate inflation. At least this is the assumption to be gained from the statement of II. J. Thomas, Detroit, president of CIO United Automobile Workers, who, speaking of the president's messago, said : Ho removed the last excuse of the automobile companies to refuse our proposed 30 per cent payroll increase when ho offered relief on prices after a reasonable period of production at celling levels If fair profit cannot be earned. But if the Inflationary spiral is once unloosed, it will bring intense suffering to farmers and to the millions of persons working on fixed salaries. It becomes obvious, therefore, that there must be mutual cooperation between management and labor if we are to have a speedy settlement of labor troubles without inflation. GOOD FAITH is required in settlements, with each side making concessions Btid compromises in the interest of the nation as a whole rather than selfishly claiming ail advantage to one group or the other, based on relative power to enforce demands.

WP A decline of as much as 15 per cent in the net income of farmers In 1M6 was forecast yesterday bv the Aerlculture department. The department said cash re ceipts from marketings p.-ooaniy would not drop quite that much. The net decline estimate however was based on the theory that some pries farmers pay for what they buy will increasf. A 15 oer cent decline in real farm income still would leave It more than double the pre-war average, including the peak years folowing line J-list world, war, the department said. In its 13-16 outlook Issue of the demand and price situation, the department predicted mat total demand for farm products would remain hich throuch the year. "The curtailment of militarv purchases of most products Will bo offset largely, if not entirely, bv expanding civilian require ments and increased purchases for relief and export." the depart ment said. "In some cases, the supplies released by the reduc tion or disappearance of special military requirements will be ab sorbed only at lower prices." lhe prices of fruits, vegetables, truck crops and cees "may de cline more than those of other farm pror-icts, It added. Wages May Remain High' Farm wages, which have risen to almost three times their pre war (1935-39) level, are likely to remain relatively high although some declines are expectable in the second half of 1946, the re- Dort said. Assuming average crop yields next year, total casn receipts, in cludine eovernment payments. may be about $19,000,000,000. This is about 10 per cent below 1945, the peak. Indications are that cash re ceipts from crops will be about 5 per cent above last year, receipts from livestock and livestock pro ducts only sligntly nigner.

THERE must be a lot In connec Hon with this Brazilian bus! ness that doesn't yet meet the eyes of us common citizens who In such matters know only what wc are told. Why the sudden in tenventlon of the Army when Vargas was NOT a candidate? About all wc outsiders know Is that Vargas was strongly pro Amcriran. We can't help wonder ing what Is in the wind. M IEANWHILE. after consulting with other American coun tries, we recognize the new revo lutionary government In Vene zuela. Meanwhile ALSO, the Ar gentine ruckus remains unsettled.

DIAL-LOG By SUSAN the future of atomic energy will begin about November 11 among us, the British and the Canadians we to be represented by President Truman, the British by Premier Attlee and the Cana dians by Premier King. (The U. S., Britain and Canada share the secret of the atom bomb, but only U. S. plants have manufactured It.) There Is no mention of RUSSIA In connection with these discus sions. IN this troubled state of the J world, General Marshall tells us that we'd hotter make tip our minds QUICKLY as to our post Var military policy. He points out lhat we're SWIFTLY demobiliz ing our great military forces so ihat. if we fail to replace them with a permanent military estab lishment, we shall soon become as HELPLESS as we were after .the last war. HIS warning Is timely. Ills words are words of wisdom. .11 wr throw away our gun while ;we are still surrounded by wolves, e shall be the world's prize Mps.

Zone in Germany rnANKFURT, Germany, Nov. 1 (JP Gen. Eisenhower reported yesterday increasing and danger ous unrest among the Germans and declared that ''from this type of resistance activity. It Is just one step to organized resistance directed against the occupation forces." The commander of American military forces and the military government in the U. S.-occupied zone of Germany said groups of mie oerman youins ana return ing soldiers had made some at tacks on individual troops. Hand bills and posters warnine "faith less' German girls have appeared. Most of the unrest, the govern ment said in its monthly report, is the result o? resentment against displaced persons, who were des cribed as the chief source of law lessness in the American zone. "There is a potential danger," It added, "that Jealous resent ment against and hatred of dis placed persons will serve A. - i - n. .i .... idle youths and young discharged oerman soldiers. Food Thefts Irk Populate The German populace, the re port said, is becoming Increas ingly bitter because of thefts of food and property by displaced persons. While there has been improvement in aeanng witn tnis lawlessness, "cases of murder and organized looting have occurred at an unpleasant rate." Resentment over depredations already has led to some trouble. the report disclosed. In Bremen, 20 German youths 16 to 23 years were arrested before tney could carry out a planned attack against displaced persons. Poles Disorderly Security raids on displaced per sons camps Invariably have un covered some firearms and ex- Dlosives. the report added. Holding out some hope for an Improvement In the general sit uation, tne repori.saia: "It is estimated that 60 to 70 per cent of the 250,000 Polish dis Dlaced Dersons now in the United States zone, and who constitute the greatest source of disorder and lawlessness, will be repatri ated voluntarily by Dec. 1, 1945." Terror Engendered The Elsenhower report said plans had been discovered for at tacks, of German youths on dis placed persons in upper Bavaria and other places. The military government In Aschaffenburg in the district of Bavaria was quoted as reporting: "Livestock is being depleted through robberies. Laborers in surrounding areas refuse to leave their homes because of fear of being attacked and having their bicycles stolen. Farmers hesitate to work the fields, because of fear of being attacked by marauding pangs. From where I sit ly Joe Marsh Keeping 'em Down on the farm Eode out to the Jenkins farm the other day-and there was young Charlie Jenkins-two months out of uniform-driving a tractor as pretty as could be with his one good arm. "I expect you find that pretty dull after piloting a bomber," I angtfesied. Charlie gives me a wide, con tented grin. "Dull?" he says. "All the time I was over Ger many I dreamt of thls-the smell of hay, and the hot sun on my back . . . and comln' home to women's voices In the farm house, and home cookln", and a friendly glass of beer. No - he says dreamily, "not dull! From where t sit, that's how lots of reluming veterans most feeL l'eornlng for excitement? No, Just mighty glad to be back with the old familiar things, the day's work, the rewards of home, companionship, and sim ple pleasures like a friendly glass of beer. N o . . not dnlL Copyright, 145.
