LETTER CARRIERS’ PAY The AFL speaks of the need to get higher wages so there'll be enough purchasing power to prevent a depres sion as productivity Increases. But Cong. Gordon L. McDonough has a ieally bright idea for helping to bring the depression on fast. McDonough would set up a commis sion to study the possibility of setting postal employes' salaries on a regional basis, instead of the present national basis. Also, he’s keen for “greater differences” between postal pay in urban and rural areas. Pres. William Doherty of the AFL National Association of Letter Car riers points out that if postal wages were set on a regional basis the ten dency would be to “lower all wages to the level of the area showing the lowest prevailing wage.” Doherty also informs Economic Bust Booster McDonough that “50 pounds of mail on a carrier’s back in a large city requires the same stamina as a similar load in a small town.”— East Bay Labor Journal, San Fran cisco.

Having the picture of the big explosion right in the front room is an experience that is rather unusual. Yet millions saw by television many of the details of set ting off an atomic blast. Citizens queried each other about whether they saw the big blast or not. Those having television sets generally gave a spirited version of their viewing the historic event. Like the old farmer, we sometimes ask, “What’s the world cornin’ to, anyway!” Here in the latest atom bomb blast we get a double shot, not only do we know the darn thing went off, but we saw it! No matter how we shake the thing, it still rolls out that each individual citizen has the last word on this atom bomb and television business. The citizen has the say as to whether or not the atom shall be used for peace or war. The citizen that ponders the problem but a tiny bit will tangle with the idea that in this monkey-business with the atom there something pretty big. We do not for a moment believe that the atom bomb will destroy the human race or the earth. It may be that the scientists will keep on until they singe their own eye brows with something, but the human animal isn’t as chimb as some preach. The same genius that created the atom bomb can be turned to the task of building a better understanding of human lives all over the world.
