THE EDITOR’S VOICE During the World War the U. S. Housing Corp. erected 634 houses near Phila. and rented them to defense workers. Today $8000,000 is due the city for taxes and now they are to be razed. Is the project at Middletown, now in pro- gress, to be something similar? ‘We hope not. Landisville, one of the finest and most enterprising “little” towns in Lancaster County, will have its own water sys- tem ere long and why shouldn't it? Filtered cistern and well water is no longer good enough. This is a wise move in the right direction and we feel confident the men who are at the head of the project will do their best to give that town and its people the best there is. It will be quite an asset to ‘the town’s health i in addition to giving them fire protection. ! Dr. Geo. A. of Maytown, one of the few country doctors still as active as ever, is being congratulated by ‘his many friends upon having reached a half century of faithful service in his town and vicinity. May he be spared to enjoy seeing many more of those whom he brought to light, grow into manhood and wo- manhood as well as to relieve id folks of their pains and aches: “Doc” is a bright light in this section. However hardened we are io responding with any sort of thrill to governmental moves, whatever our personal poli- tics, however we cast our vote, there are few of us but who felt awed and impressed when we received the confirma- tion of our suspicions that Roosevelt and Churchill really had met at sea. Everyone seemed to suspect it, all along, but we knew not where or when. It makes us pause, this news, as we try to visualize the meeting, the clasp- ing of two famous hands, the words of greeting from two renowned speakers. Roosevelt and Churchill 'in secret meeting place, talking over the destinies of the millions of souls who plod along their; respective ways courageously, and prayerfully. ~ We are proud of the way communities around us have responded to the national call for aluminum. They are answering or have answered, with pleasure, since the re- quest is for only those pieces which are no longer of any use. One finds it isn’t so hard to give when you aren’t be- ing pinched. From state to state has spread the round- up of aluminum and all sorts cf ways have been taken to | collect it for the government. All of us have noticed where | Girl and Boy Scouts have collected it, where movie theatres halls admitting couples free if they brought aluminum with ' moded, dented cooking pan, a sore in the side of the pantry and an article taking up room on the refuse barrel, into a product that goes to fill a desperate need. From disuse our Uncle Sammy! We recently read an article dealing with a subject dear to our hearts. It was concerning the matter of trees and the conserving of them through a closed season. As we all know, almost every state has a closed season on fish and game. We protect our waters and our wild life. What happens to man’s friends the forests of the nation with un- checked waste practiced throughout? Three-fourths of this country’s forests lie in the hands of private ownership and although many men in the timber industry take steps to protect forest resources, there is still a wholesale slaugh- fer to our good friends, the majestic woods. By abusing the forests we bring on erosion and floods, cutting down our future for those raw materials necessary in the life of a country. There are owners of large forest tracts who give no thought to the regulation of reforestation and so by ex- ploiting their land for their own personal gain, they give no thought to future generations to come. So why not a dlosed season on trees? Comes the first Monday of September dedicated to the laboring class of our country and, since most of us are workers, the celebration will be noted by each of the bread- winners in this community. Whether we are toilers with our hands, or workers with our minds, whether we call into play our muscles or our job depends wholly upon our ourselves. The American laborer stands high in the inter national rating for he has accomplished a superior stand- ard of living for himself compared to other nationalities. Although labor, through internal strife, has engulfed it- self in strikes and lost wages through. disturbances be- tween it and its employer, still labor is en joying the rights of free men in a democratic country. Labor Day in America is participated in by all classes. It has organized itself to serve its members that their liv- ing may be more pleasant with wages and hours kept on a standard to insure this mode of pleasant living.
