LITTLE serious thought at times
does none of us, any harm.)
;
IF YOU really want to meditate,
opportunities are numerous.
In South Chicago, lor exam
pie, a bum tells a reporter that
what with flophouse lodylngs
boosted from 13 cents to 30 cents
a night and meals upped' from
20 cents to 70 cents his old, com
fortable way of life has been
about wrecked.
"Such increases are too much,"
he says. "X guy can't relax. I'm
going to have to go back to
work."
E
VEN inflation, you soo, has Its
ed on organized production, ANY
THING that sends people back
to work helps.
IF, IN the weok following a four
day holiday, you are In the
mood at all for meditation, here
Is more raw material:
In tha Philadelphia, home of
Louis Somorshoc, a big rat got- a
hind foot caught in a trap. When
Louis and his family returned
from a weekend out of town the
cmbattlod rat, with the trap
clinging to one foot, chased them
all up on tables and chairs when
they opened the door and entered
the room.
Louis finally managed to elude
the rat long enough to TELE
PHONE THE POLICE and a
squad of officers arrived In a riot
car and disposed of tlio rat with
their persuaders.
THIS is the point for medita
tion: Louis' GRANDFATH
ER, Instead of calling the police,
would probably havo found a
way to bash the rate with a chair
leg. In his day, you didn't look to
government for anything you
could do for yourself.
STILL, you never can tell.
Up in Salem the other day, a
robber chopped a holo In a Jew
elry store with an ax, and was
In the act of making off with a
couple of diamond rings when
MRS. Buddy Ryan tamo along
and collared him, ax and all, and
held him until the police arrived.
s
HE didn't HAVE to. She could
have waited for GOVERN
MENT (as omhodicd In the po
lice force) to do tho Job. That
Just didn't happen to bo HER
way. Her way was to handle the
situation herself.
It takes all kinds of people to
make a world.
The point for meditation is
that thero ARE all kinds of peo
plenow as in the past.
ON THE inflation front, the
first $1.25 haircut and $1
shave reported from the Pacific
Coast appear in San Mateo coun
ty, on the Peninsula, below San
Francisco.
The secretary of the San Ma
teo county barbers' union, an
nouncing the Increase, says it is
necessitated by higher costs of
operation and living.
That is normal reasoning In In
flation times.
V. DURLING, who used to
be a reporter in Los Angeles
but now is a big columnist ifc
New York, reported the other
day on the results of dollar hair
cuts in the Big Town.
The cash customers, even on
Broadway, he said, are making
the. dollar hairdos GO FARTHER
by the simple process of going
longer IN BETWEEN.
That is the standard, time-

THE EXPERT OPINION
By CHARLES V. STANTON
, The current weekly report
observer contains one point
ing predictions of professional economists and statisticians
in , Washington independent forecasters, not frenzied
bureaucratic propagandists
mates as to probable increases
six months have been scaled
Prior to the demise of OPA these professional statisticians
presented varying estimates on the rise of living costs, their
various "guesses" ranging from 15 to 25 per cent. Remem
ber, these increases in living costs were based on the pre
sumption that the OPA and price controls would REMAIN
in effect. "Now that OPA is resting, at least temporarily,
in the ash can, these estimates, while still varying, have,
almost unanimously, been scaled downward, generally
around; five per cent.
This means that in the opinion of these men, who make
a business of compiling statistics and predicting future
trends, prices entering into cost-of-living will not advance
as far without price control as they would have done under
continued OPA regulation.
These estimates are based upon actual facts and figures,
public opinion polls, etc., from all parts of the country and
gre not influenced by OPA's scare campaign. Our observer,
incidentally, reports that the flood of pro-OPA letters and
telegrams showered upon
Bowles & Co., and the CIO
of the form letter type, do not
vidual congressmen.
Prices are expected to rise
milk, bread, etc., the increases compensating for the loss
of subsidies. The American public (has been fooled into
thinking prices were being
not paying them direct. They were paying their money
in taxes. Producers were

are expected to contain penalties for those landlords who

offset within a few months by

j Contrary to propagandist
mobiles would' soar to stratospheric heights, a survey of
manufacturers indicates that tho maximum increase will
not exceed. 10 per cent.
We have found our Washington observer extremuly accu
rate in tho past He hr.s maintained an extremely conserva
tive attitude whon many others were going off tho deep end.
He has shown an uncanny ability to peer into the future
and come up with the right answers.
In these days when paid propagandists aro screaming of
inflation, and the general public is kept more or less fearful
lest dire predictions of scare campaigners be true, it is a
relief to find men who deal with cold facts and figures indi
cating that our fears are groundless and that evidence points
to more satisfactory conditions without price controls than
with them.

his eighth straight defeat, losing
4-2 to the San Francisco Seals.
It was the eighth loss for the
Padrns In a row at the hands of
the Seals, who crept up to half
a game behind tha league-leading
Oakland Acorns, splitters of a
twin bill with the Seattle Rain
iers. Melton fashioned the Seal
victory out of eight-hit pitching,
walking no Padres.
At Seattle the Rainiers won the
eight-inning opener 1-0 and the
Acorns, sharing the league lead
with the Seals as they went into
the nightcap, retaliated 5-3. Tost

his eighth in 13 starts.
The Portland Beavers in the
ninth inning rallied to tie and
defeat the Sacramento Solons
4-3. With the clubs tied at two
runs apiece, Sacramento's Kam
pouris poled a homer to put the
Solons ahead in their half of the
ninth. In the Beaver comeback,
Soua singled, and Solon Hurler
Freilas threw wild on a sacrifice,
leaving two on base. Shone fol

Souza, and Dobbins singled home
the winning tally.
Tho Los Angeles Angels

place by a doublehcader victory
over the Hollywood Stars, 8-3 and

the Grants Pass Lodee last night
