II i-mintm-i-ni-te in lhA a'pi ...,,1
CIO engaged in dramatic strug
gles for higher wages.
Despite the eloquent (and des
perate) pleas of the Labor Party's
speakers, the union members now
insist that "it's thr inh nf (ho
Unions to square us with the cost
01 living.
"Labor government or Tory
government and God help the
lories if they do get in we are
going to make it difficult," said
a railwayman. "It's our duty.
We're going to get a decent liv
ing for our men."
The national wage average in
Britain is 7 per week (about
&20). This may have been suffi
cient for a family of three or
ioui m addition to all the other
benefits they get from the wel
fare state to exist before infla
tion set in. But now the lower
income groups find it extremely
difficult to make ends meet.
Some millions of Britons, at the
bottom of the income level, are
exempt from paying income tax.
Hut none is exempt from the our-
chase tax and other "hidden"
taxes.
The purchase tax on clothine.
electrical appliances and leather
goods runs from 33 per cent to
13 per cent. On tobacco, ciga
rettes and other luxuries it is al
most 200 per cent.
Rationed foods are relatively
cheap. But no family can subsist
entirely on the meager rations.
Unrationcd goods are practically
inaccessible to the average Briton.
A Conservative victory at the
polls on Oct. 25 will free the
hands of the frustrated union
leaders. Already under Com
munist and left wing pressure
"from below" there are de-
TORY POSTERS: They
blame Lnhor for all Bri
tain's (rouhlos, foreign and
domestic.
mands for immediate wage in
creases and threats of strikes.
Winston Churchill's return to
power might unleash a strike
wave that would rock Britain and
have wide repercussions through
out Europe.
In the furious battle of "Elec
tion Manifestos" the Tories blame
Labor for all of Britain's domes
tic and foreign trouble, including
the debacle in Iran and the new
crisis over the Suez Canal.
They profess to see in Labor as
a whole, not merely its left wing
"lunatic fringe" led by Aneurin
Bevan, a deliberate drive towards
the totalitarian state.
Labor goes back to the 1930s
to try to demonstrate not only
Tory incompetence but also Tory
ill-will towards the wage earners.
Labor speakers denounce the
Conservatives as greedy "capi
talist profiteers" and "war
mongers" who will plunge Bri
tain into war practically on the
day of their election victory.
Unfortunately, both the Labor
ites and the Tories (as the au
thoritative London Economist re
cently wrote) appear to be as
firmly united as ever on one main
proposition that the voters
should not be allowed to give a
verdict on the real issues facing
the British people.

Too Much Heat
Harms Nuts,
Agent Advises
Homo owners who are harvest
ing English walnut crops this
season of the year were advised
Saturday not to use loo much heat
in drying the walnuts.
County Agent W. B. Parker
pointed out that the fallen nuts
will be wet and will require dry
ing. But, he warned, don't put
them in an oven or anywhere else
where the temperature will climb
above 110 degrees.
If they're dried too quickly at a
high temperature the nuts will
have cracked shells and off-flavored
nut meats meats that arc
rancid and bad tasting.
The best drying temperature for
walnuts, Parker said, is from 90
to 100 degrees. At this tempera
ture, usual drying time will be
about 48 hours.
Walnuts will dry more rapidly
if they are spread on a drying
surface such as a screen in a thin
layer, rather than heaped in a
pile.
If anyone is interested in doing
an extra-fancy job on his walnut
crop by bleaching. Ihe county i
Bldg. has a bleaching formula and
can tell how the job is done.

One Thinq About U. S.
Citizens Eat Well
CAMDEN, N. J.tU.R) Two new
citizens here have been impressed
by many things in the United
Stales, but by nothing so much as
its food.
Federal Judge Thomas S. Mad
den had just told them, "You are
jnow part of the greatest organiza
j tion in the world, the United
j States of America.
Then he asked Mrs. Maureen Z.
' Andrews, a British war bride,
"What is it about this country you
like?"
j "The food," she said, without
.hesitating.
Giovanna Altadonna was more
tspecific when Madden asked her.
(The spaghetti, she said is better
'here than in Italy.
