a "tennas" affair, as there are
but few Indians now in the

Joe's description, the dance
did not have the eclnts that
such affairs possessed In the

Climatically the last day of 1945 was one of the worst we
have ever exrierienced. With a heavy fall or snow on xne grouna
It started to melt, then clouded up and rained (in a desultory de
pressing manner) and finally a heavy fog rolled in and stucn,
one couldn't do anything with comfort, except sit by the fire and
read. And for any1 of the older boys (or girls) to do that for long
is no fun, for the outcome Inevitably is sleep. And the night is
the time to sleep not the day. This goes for the day before New
Year's particularly!
On New Year's day, as on every other day, the old reliable
law of compensation works. The family had a very quiet New
Year's eve, and therefore arose the usual time this morning and
are feeling, all In all, quite respectable. The other guests at the
Inn are not yet up-as this is being written, and we imagine are
not or will not feel so respectable when they do "arise and
shine" or try to. For they did not get to bed until four or five
this morning and had some high-octane whoopee up to that time.
So not having had any whoopee we don't have to pay for it; hav
ing had a large supply they DO.
If that Isn't the law of compensation operating, what is It?

It seems strange to listen to the Rose Bowl game at 5 p. m.t
and we can picture all the False Friends around their radios Just
after lunch. We got the Rose Bowl luncheon In Pasadena yester
day over the air and were interested to hear that "grand old man,"
Alonzo Stagg predict a victory for Southern Cal. on the grouna
of the underdog psychology. Everyone In the East predicts an
Alabama victory but we would trail along with Alonzo If we
could, for he certainly knows football and must know all about
the two teams from an expert's standpoint. He didn't actually
predict a Trojan victory, however, but he dfd say if he were a
coach he would like to be in Cravath's boots, playing against a
13-polnt favorite. His final word was "psychology" counts.
Well, in a few hours now we win know the score and can
check up on Alonzo as prophet.
We liked Secretary Bryne's radio report on the Moscow con
ference; It seemed to us a very straightforward and sincere effort,
particularly the admissions of Imperfections. From the original
reports after the close of the conference, we expected some
grandiose claims about Big Three brotherhood and the lion lying
down with the lamb with everything sweetness and light. But
the Secretary frankly admitted conditions in the Balkan settle
ments might be improved upon and no progress whatever had
been made in an agreement with Russia concerning Iran. There
was no reference to Turkey, or if so we missed it.
Wonder If the UNO will, also dodge that one. If so, it will
violate, one of Its cardinal principles In its first formal meeting.
e e e e e
But there Is this to bear In mind regarding UNO, TOO much
should not be expected of it and for a very simple reason, i.e.:
World War No. 2 has ended physically but not psychologically.
The war psychology In other words still exists. And war
psychology is full of such things as hate, suspicion, hostility,
lack of good will and trust. All these qualities have been re
flected in the UNO constitution, and will remain there until the
war psychology ceases to exist.
And eventually, of course, it will cease to exist, thank the
Lord! Then better days will be here again!!
e e e e e
World-peace, like Mark Twain's weather has been a matter
of much conversation and little action. But for the first time In
the history of the human race It really strikes this department,
however, as something that may actually come about. And as a
result of the atomic bomb.
Why? Well, for the same reason we have peace within
nations, fear of what breaking the peace will involve!
There are undoubtedly millions of individuals In the land who
would rob, steal and murder if there were not FEAR of the con
sequences. And so In the future there will no doubt be nntlons
who will want war, and would follow the German example and
start war if there were not that fear of the consequences. In the
foreseeable future we can't Imagine nations sprouting wings and
being without evil passions which In the past have always caused
wars, but we CAN Imagine nations being so fearful of destruction
to themselves from atomic reprisals, that they would never DARE
to start one! R.W.R.

him? Or is that part of it any of
my business? The stargazers
claim the "clinging vine" tech

States one Al Konlgsberg:
You say George Odom rode the
great mare Imp. As one who has
been arounds tracks 58 years let
me put you right. Imp's Jockey
was Pete Clay, a colored boy
George Odom was not riding
when Imp was racing." (Note:
On this I will have to check. Imp
was before my time. However,
as a student of the history of the
turf still seem to have In my
mind that Odom rode Imp.)

Am Informed that the wages
for pharmacists in Detroit are
now $1.50 to $2 an hour. In
1936 Detroit pharmacists were
being paid 35 cents an hour and
had to work a 70-hour week to
make a living wage.
Mules & Men
A tall blue-eyed Swedish bru
nette of Chicago says the best
companion or husband for a tall
girl Is a man of average height,
i. e., five feet eight inches. Tall
men have usually been spoiled
by an excess of feminine atten
tion and in addition they are al
most invariably susceptible to
the charms of clever, cute little
tricks. Short men with tall
girls, says she, are always self-
conscious. Furthermore they
never want to dance, always
fearing the difference in height
will be embarrassing.
P.S Just listened to the 'Bama-U.S.C. broadcast, what a
beating. We fear Alonzo, like G.T., must be slipping!

Passing By
Adm. Bill Halsey. When the
admiral was in California re
cently he went to Santa Anita
track and stayed two races.
Maintaining his oft repeated
claim he knows nothing about
horses he nevertheless decided to
have a wager. As the admiral's
nickname is "Bull'' he picked
Toy Bull in the fifth. The ani
mal won, paying $26.60. In the
sixth he thought the name Sea
Spray was a good hunch bet for
a seafaring man, so he played it.
Sea Spray won, paying $15.20.
The admiral told me this himself.
I had the pleasure of meeting
him at a cocktail party.

the household and tell her what
to do and when. All she asks is
that he "baby" her once In a

' profits) Price Administrator
Bowles is checking for the pres
ident. Mr. Bowles has been In
structed to complete his report
by Feb. I and the fact-finding
panel will then come in with a
decision Feb. 10.
The proposed steel strike,
therefore, as soon as Mr. Tru
man acted, entered the realm of
superfluity. Why strike Jan. 14
for a settlement which is prom
ised Feb. 10 by machinery al
ready functioning? Such a
strike would only deprive the
workers of their wage income
for that period.
Radicals and left - wingers
wl'hin the union wanted to
strike anyway, but the crowd
around President Phil Murray
could see rather clearly it would
be a useless walkout and early
sought methods of avo'ding it.
Thus the president's machin
ery was already functioning
without legislation in the two
major national strike instances.
Its work was only slightly im
peded by its inability to sub
poena witnesses and require both
parties to present their cases.
There even seemed a prospect
that a coollng-off period would
be effected in the steel strike
until Feb. 10.
For these and other reasons
there seemed little prospect the
president's strategem of trying
to sidetrack the public pressure
against strikes from the White
House to the broader shoulders
of congress would be fully effec
tive as far as current strikes are
concerned. It Is not clear how
much speed the legislation might
contribute to settlements.

Rep. Connally of Texas calls
upon President Coolidge to "pay
some attention to the trusts that
are running between his legs."
JUEWS-WISE readers may find
' it enlightening to keep one
point in mind while perusing
the hot words now being ex
changed by both sides, and by
the politicos involved. These
strikes are all part of the union
campaign to force a general 30
per cent wage increase upon the
federal government.
Moreover, as a whole, they
represent the postwar surge of
the unions to enhance and ap
ply their new, great power over
national economics, to control all
economics. All the other argu
ments are extraneous points ex
citedly pushed forward in the
heat of bitter conflict.
As the strikes continue and
expand, the debate becomes less
anl less reasonable and farther
away from the simple, sound
basic principle of common Jus
tice as distinct from one-siaea
Justice.
In such a debate, so few speaK
for the public interest, which is
the paramount interest. Neither
unions nor companies have the
right to destroy the public's
rights to service and goods at
reasonable prices and Just wages.

ors was even then completing its

reiusecl to submit its case. The

As the Inside White House
eye saw the situation, the Gen
eral Motors people were trying
to arouse the country through
advertising and otherwise against
exposure jf its private business
methods and profits from the
union gaze.

e e
PERSONALLY, it seems to me
one-sided Justice to require
one party to a dispute to furnish
profit data without requiring the
owirr to cnsciose its profits also.
In short, the public Interest
should be served by fact finding,
not alone the union interest.
Whatever the sound Justice of
this matter, the presidential
panel went ahead to get what
it called "the facts" and my
Inner acents tell me the pane',
merely found Its work made a
little more difficult but not Im
possible by the General Motors

I believe the highest govern
ment officials here considered
the profits dispute as shadow
boxing and leaned rather sharp

Plan To Prevent Strikes
To the editor: While the coun
try is torn by unrest, dissention
and strikes throwing thousands
out of work and causing need
less suffering, I would like to
offer what I think' is a sensible
solution to prevent strikes and
make satisfied workers in all
Industries whether large or
small.
My suggestion is this: let
every industry put into effect
a bonus system by giving every
employee who has worked a
year or more 10 of the net pro
fit divided equally among them.
This plan would give each em
ployee something to look for
ward to and also an incentive
to do more and better work and
at the same time It would boost
his morale and good will which
would be a big asset to any com
pany. Every employee under this
plan would be working not only
for his or her own Interest but
to each other's mutual Interest
and welfare. It would. In my
opinion, eliminate all disputes
and misunderstandings and
work out to everyone's mutual
satisfaction.
If any disputes should arise
It coi-'.d be settled by a commit
tee of arbitration appointed by
labor and management.
I am strongly In favor of do
ing away with any union or dls
union that does not work for
the Interest and welfare of the
country which Is all the people.
I am In favor of organization
and unity and harmony, for it
has been said, and Justly so, a
house divided against itself can
not stand.
