No Cause for Delay
Returns on the blocks of Christmas Seals re
cently mailed out by the public health association
have been coming in slower than usual and the
senders are a little apprehensive about the ulti
mate benefits. It must be remembered that this is
not a wartime activity. The work of the tubercu
losis association has been going on for years and
of necessity was carried on during the war years,
because the ravages of tuberculosis have become
more pronounced due to a shortage of skilled help
among the civilian population, and the fight to
check this growth is being waged with increased
determination.
We have been harassed by a series of drives
for this, that and the other thing all of them
worthy causes and with the cessation of hostili
ties too many of us have declared a holiday on
bond buying and other demands for funds arising
from the war. Let us not forget that the war on
tuberculosis is a continuing battle, one that cannot
be settled around the peace table when conflicting
parties tire of fighting. It must go on from year to
year and each and everyone of us should deem it
a privileg to provide a dollar or two annually to
help keep the good work going.
Be a good Joe and send in your remittance to
day. Please!
A Justifiable Strike
This is about a strike in which the public at
large could take a hand and only a few individuals
would be affected. There is much haranguing by
certain users of the air waves that if listened to
seriously by a majority of the people might lead
us into another war before we get cooled off from
the last one. These haranguers seem to have
a special grudge against Russia, whose every act
is viewed with suspicion. Just how long this can
go on depends somewhat upon the attitude of
radio listeners, who, by giving ear to the alarm
ists lend a certain amount of authenticity to their
claims.
There is a simple way to strike against these
carried to sufficient length the advertiser feels
yappers. Just dial them out on your radio. When
the effect in loss of business and eventually
refuses or neglects to renew the commentator's
contract.
Such a strike, if carried to a logical conclusion,
would be fully justified.
Why Buy at Home?
In 1939 a man from the United States visiting
his native Holland bought an American made car
there, prlu !50 to have it shipped to New York
and saved about $225 on the purchase price of
the car in the land in which it was-made. Ameri
cans use plasties made in Scotland because it is
more profitable to do so tlian to use phsf.es nnn--.tfacturd
in this country.
What is vrong with our American economy
-.vher our own citizens can go abroad and pur
chase articles manufactured in this country at
figures so far below the price at home? It this a
part of the "good neighbor" policy we heard so
much about a few years ago or is John Q. Public
