From
Pillar To Post
(Continued from Page 1)
In one spot the script called for
a chorus of voices, all reassuring
Mrs. Wagstaff that her skin was
lovely, positively girlish in fact, that
she had slimmed down remarkably
since embarking upon the course of
beauty treatments, and that she
didn’t look a day over thirty-five.
Having yelped according to sched-
ule and been reassured as to my
charms, I was ready to call it a
night and go home.
Mr. Young restrained me. “Now
right here,” he said, ‘is where you
waddle out on your heels, plugs of
cotton between your toes to avoid
smearing the polish. Your cue is
right after the pedicure says, ‘Now
don’t put on your stockings yet,
you'll smear that lovely big toenail!”
Having waddled out on my heels,
I made for the door. Once again
Mr. Young forestalled me. z
“Don’t go yet, I'm not through
with you. You are going to be. the
old sour-puss in the third act, third
scene, the dowager who berates her
debutante daughter for guzzling
champagne and leading the Conga.”
In this scene, the dowager halts
in the middle of the stage, yanks
down her girdle, and pins back the
ears of her tearful daughter in a
blistering diatribe.
I began to feel a pardonable curi-
osity, coupled with a faint but grow-
ing suspicion. “Mr. Young,” I in-
quired,” how did you happen to
land on me for this particularly
poisonous part? I realize that fig-
uratively speaking it is a good fat
part, but there are doubtless other
well-preserved and overstuffed ma-
trons around Wilkes-Barre and en-

THE LISTENING POST
- ‘By THE VETERAN
Post and note that of eleven fore-
casts printed in regard to national
and war situations there have been
nine fulfilled and only two left to
unfinished business.
Coal companies are suspect in
Washington. The reason they are
under a pall of doubt is that field
agents of the United Mine Workers
have reported a plan among the
mine owners to use the war as a
means of breaking-down not only
the five-day week and the short
day but also for putting a premium
price on hard coal. President Roo-
sevelt and his War Cabinet, as well
as the War Labor Board, have com-
plete knowledge of the fact that the
‘demand for a full six-day week in
tirely on a scheme for adding costs
to delivered tonnage. 5
An extra day of work would be
accepted by the miners if they were
permitted to draw time and one-
half pay. The companies say they
will give that extra compensation if
they are permitted to raise the ton
price of coal. The increased coal
prices would apply on tonnage for
all days of the week, covering not
only the time-and-one-half pay but
also bloated profits on production
for five regular-hour days. Back of
that scheme it has been discovered
A8 a definite shortening of present
output. The sudden change, as re-
ported to official quarters, is the
result of co-operative work between
i the railroad brotherhoods and the
| mine union.
Checking of coal trains shows that
i some of the large corporations have
cut down as far as two-thirds on a
| day’s output of coal. At one of the
largest collieries in the Luzerne
County region it was shown that a
day’s normal haul of one hundred
| twenty cars of prepared coal had
{ dwindled to only forty cars ready
{for the markets. The result was
that the railroaders suffered in
wages just as the fuel-famished
East suffered in reduction of stock
piles. Only the intervention of the
union workers and their agents
foiled the effort to foster the extra
day’s work as a cost-boom scheme.
At least two approaches have
' been made to United Mine Workers
| Chief John L. Lewis on the proposi-
tion of resuming earlier pleasant re-
| lations with the New Deal. No one
i would openly say that!' President
| Roosevelt himself had dictated any
! course of action; nevertheless, it
. definitely has been suggested to
| Lewis that if he would call around
he would find a welcome. To the
| intermediaries the answer of Lewis
| has been that he is too busy looking
| after war production from the
| mines, labor schedules and other
| matters, but he remembered to
| bring to. the front the tremendous
| investments the mine unions are
| making in their country’s present
| safety and future prosperity.
The United Mine Workers have
‘taken out war bonds to a total of
i hundreds of thousands of dollars, in
as large amounts as the Treasury
| allows and as often as the subscrip-
| tions are open. Lewis sees to it
| that monthly accounting is made
public in that regard. And, too, he
{is on the inside of every govern-
mental development, thanks to the
fact that his secretary-treasurer,
Thomas Kennedy of Hazleton, is a
member of the War Labor Board
and is excused for at least half of
every business day from the United
Mine Workers offices so that he may
| ottond War Labor affairs. *
Lewis has rejected all appeals that
he take to the radio, just as he has
rejected the suggestions of making
a call at the White House. But, in
the quiet of his offices off Franklin
Square in Washington he foretold
what was going to happen to the
New Deal in the recent elections.
Democrats who have been in con-
} tact with him for old time's sake
| were given warning that the Re=
publicans would make a come-back
in such Congressional strength as to
put an end to fiat government
when next the Congress goes into
session.
Politics is no small diversion in
government. The New York State
interference with world affairs was
only a sample of how closely the
| country is being watched. It has
come to be settled common sense
with the New Dealers that if the
y Labor strength is divided in the
| 1944 elections there will be a change
of party so far as the Presidency is
concerned. Meanwhile, as between
the coal operators and the unions,
the public needs for its own good to
stand with the Lewis outfit. Any
increases in the price of coal will
badly jangle what is left of the an-
thracite market and make worse
than before the economy of north-
eastern Pennsylvania.

It will be a year late, but exactly

Reprimands for anthracite-producing corporations and a definitely

By the way, in re-
what happened at Pearl Harbor on
December 7, 1941, will be explained
to the American people by Elmer
Davis on the anniversary of Japan's
shattering blow against the United
States Navy. There will be no sur-
prise if, within four weeks of the
Davis report, there also is announ-
ced official retirement of Davis from
the Office of War Information.
No newspaperman, excepting one
actually in need of a job, could very
long tolerate the evasions and snub-
bings under which the Davis office
has ‘existed as long as it has. And
Davis is one man who has no need
to hunt for a job. Either as repor-
ter, war correspondent or radio
commentator he can connect within
a minute of announcing willingness
Farmers Want Machines
Farmers Co-Operative Association,
operating out of Benton with Roy
Hess as policy maker, will join var-
ious other agricultural units in an
ultimratum to Washington before the
planting season is here again. Tak-
ing the United States as a whole
and despite the labor shortage and
potato blights, there was produced
by the farms twenty-two percent
more food than in the year 1941.
Added to the crops was a fourteen
percent increase in milk production.
This week it was announced that
another cut of twenty percent will
be made in farm machinery. Of
all durable goods output, counting
only goods made from iron and
steel, farm machinery is exactly two
percent. With two million men
taken from the farms by draft and
enlistment and another half mil-
lion posted for service, the farmers
will make it clear that unless more
machinery, instead of less, is given
them they cannot equal last year’s
performance. One-third of their
crops went into United Nations
Lend-Lease support and their argu-
ment will be that with the cause of
democracy on the path to victory
the year 1943 should have no re-
tardations against food supplies.
If their request for machines is
rejected there will be a flood of
retirements from farms that already
are a drug on the market.
