THE EDITOR’S VOI CE
What was spoken of as a a victory
in Europe this Winter, is now gues-
sed at, by some, as three more years
of fighting over there.

When we start to complain about
our drafty house this kind of wea-
think of the wind that comes
with sleeping, soaked to the skin,
in frozen mud, overseas.

CIGARETS COST MORE THAN
ELECTRIC SERVICE
The American public spends al-
most 50 percent. more on cigarets
than on electric service, according
to figures published recently by
the Securities and Exchange Com-
mission, the gross revenue of the
six largest [cigaret manufactureiss
in the United States in 1943 totaled
$1,553,032,000. During the same
period the revenues received by all!
American electric utilities—private-
ly-owned and publicly -owned—for
residential and farm service total-
ed $1,100,000,000, or nearly half a
billion dollars less than the receipts
of the cigaret manufacturers.

Later still, Hotel Lincoln, on S.

WHAT DOES FREEDOM MEAN?
When we boast of freedom in the
United States, we mean a freedom |
that has gone. How can there be |
freedom when union,

man from carrying on his daily |
work because he refuses to pay an |
arbitrary assessment of one dollar }
for political purposes which are]
contrary to his beliefs? Wiiness |
Cecil B. DeMille!
Previous to the DeMille case, the
musicians’ union defied the War La-
bor Board and the President, and |
prevented phonographic recordings |
until the transcription companies |
were forced to surrender and pay
a tax en cach record (milliens ot |
dollars into the union
treasury, not to the musicians them-
selves. Antitrust suits against the
union were dismissed by the courts
on the grounds of lack of jurisdic”
