Nothing would seem to be more appropriate than the planting of trees along the roadside. This Is spring planting time so It would seem to be proper to call the attention ol our civic or- ganitations to the fact that they rould make a atxrt in a movement to Plant a Tree. If each J member of our community would take upon him- self the sponsoring of one or more trees in such m project the lob could be completed quickly and i become an object of community pride. 5 The community has fallen down on the matter of Improving the appearance of the Marine Barracks road.

Smile Time MBS Queea for a Day MBS Heiodfona Melodiea ' Behind The News Bv PAUL MALLON 18 President Truman got off the straight, narrow and just wage-price tightrope at his press conference seminar on economics. Some hearers thought there was dan ger he might fall Into the old CIO dustpan, as pure CIO economic dust was flying thick in the air around there. . Some excitement was caused by Mr. Truman's ob servation that further price increases would bring more wage Increases. Such a prospect, of course would be an invitation to step back on the same old merry-go-round, which , was such a foolish, dlny whirl that even the CIO abandoned It at least eased off it In publicity. My information shows plainly the president meant this only as a warning and not as an Invitation. The intent was not at all clear in the news accounts because the president himself did not make it clear. The remark was intended to dissuade business from trying any further increases. In fact the inside understanding of the whole seminar among those in the know (Uie number being too few in this case) was to exert moral suasion. It was definitely not for the purpose of bestirring again the latent CIO and OPA economic dust which long since has laid down and died on the floor. You may accept tills as gospel. But Mr. Truman unfortunately encouraged eco nomic dust throwing by two other things he did which are subject to even a greater misinterpretation. He said it might do some good to rase the anti-trust act to permit some fair downward price adjustments. In some few prices, this might help. But the. prices in these few cases are not the burdensome living costs so gravely affecting the people in general. Such action would not affect milk, cream, eggs and bread. Most people believe Mr. Truman might pos sibly do a lot more good if he proposed exactly the opposite course namely more rigid enforcement of the antitrust laws. They were made to prevent com binations holding prices high. HE second time he worked the vacuum trailer in when he failed to demur to a re porter's suggestion of the old union argument that "profits have been greatly increased, sometimes as high as 300 per cent." No news follower needs to have this one explained. Just turn over to the stock market paces. Read the price. See if stocks have gone up You will find that stock prices have not gone up to the extent of the cost of living and yet stock prices are based wholly on current profits and expectations of profits. Many have gone down lately. The president's remark on this point was plainly subject to dangerous misinterpretations, especiolly as the CIO is trying now at Uijs very moment to needle another price increase out of steel and autos under the same delusion. The profits of U. S. Steel and General Motors are rather open books, and I'm tired of telling them, but the truth of that situation can be obscured from the country by Just such propa ganda as is being fostered out of the press seminar. Mr. Truman should have been specific because the price problem is specific. What profits went up 300 per cent? No one mentioned the company or com panies, or the precise nature of the case in point. To cite such a generality is to encourage a move ment which could wreck the country, with more in flation. Such an increase certainly sounds unjust, unwarranted and possibly Illegal. He could have required the reporter who brought the matter up to cite the specific case. Incidentally also in this way he could probably have forced that very price down by intelligent moral suasion publicity. The overall truth of the matter was not even mentioned at the supposedly complete economic seminar, namely that production is the cause of it ail. When you get production, free enterprise will operate. Certainly the cost of living will not come down as long as goods are short and the sellers con trol the market. Mr. Truman might have called on his agriculture department to encourage more production. He might have called on his bureau of labor statistics to trace down the real reason why milk, eggs, cream and bread are higher. He could have ordered his Justice department to enforce bitterly any unjust com binations under the antitrust laws which are holding prices up. He might have done a hundred similar things which would really help the consumer and really get prices down. But. as I say, he got one foot or more off the tightrope and the CIO dust was flying thickly around his oval office room. j they were going to support it until n naa oeen given a lair opportunity year 13.175,000 had incomes of less man uum alter taxes were settled. And as for the wealthiest group those with net incomes of more than $24,000 a year after deductions of taxes it dropped from 7000 In dividuals in 1939 to a mere 4o in 1945-46. ! .,"1 P?1?
