Proclaim Liberty through all the land." IJberty Bell. The I HARDSHIP AND PESSIMISM Circumstances break mens bones. It has never been shown that circumstances break mens optimism. This I concluded after reading about the childhood of Charles Dickens, the great English writer who was born in 1812. He was a good man, as G. K. Chesterton described him brave, tender-heartescrupuously independent and honorable. He perhaps had the faults of a little boy who is kept up too late at night - he i a little too irritable because he is a little too happy. Chesterton observes: "In all the practical relations of his life, Dickens was what the child is in the last hours of an evening party: genuinely delighted, genuinely delightful, genuinely affectionate and happy, and yet m some strange way, fundamentally exasperated and dangerously close to tears. will not assume lioaneial responsibility for any Ileralil-Jotirn- terrors which may appear in advertisements published in its columns, is at fault, it will reprint that fin those Instant es where the paper li lire Iv mistake occurs. of the advertisement in whit pngrapliical Not liberty alone, not truth alone, but truth and Liberty with Tiutli, .shall yet enlighten the world. itACK HOME TO WHAT? Many of the emergency war jobs for women are vanishing. Air raid wardens and plane spotters are not urgently needed. Women who took paid war jobs as a patriotic Service are beginning to come back home. Back home to vv'iat? Certainly not to idleness or routine of dusting and bridge. Too many ot these women have learned that they can keep a home and still fiiid time for work outside. ipspinnj k They have training of all sorts of skills from riveting to first aid. They have experience in working with groups of dther people in ships or on volunteer committees. And they are women which means that they have a deep inner knowledge of the importance of home and children, of sound guidance for young people in these unstable times. Logan can use women with this skill and experience. By volunteering a few hours a week to such organizations as the Girl Scouts, these women can continue to do important work for war and peace. They can be the friends and adders of girls who have been too much neglected in this war emergency. There is a place for the woman who can demonstrate how to change a lire and the women who will open tier kitchen to girls who want to bake cookies for their ffiends in the army and navy. ? The Logan Gill Scout Council reports that more girls t&an ever before want to have the fun and citizenship training cf Scouting. They lack leaders and meeting places. Heres aLeal opportunity for the woman who wants to keep on with volunteer work that is important. Information on the program can be secured from Mrs. James O. Stewart, local commissioner. !, T much-neede- d HUMANITARIAN The most humane soul of whom weve heard in quite a while is Howard Kugelman, department store proprietor of Urbana, O. Mr. Kugelman scheduled a nylon hosiery sale for a Saturday night, thus giving everyone an equal chance at the merchandise. But therein lies not the beauty of the story. When the ordeal was over and the inevitable battered, bruised, and disappointed handled? had gone home, Mr. Kugelman reviewed in memory the horrible scene, then shakenly announced that he was withdrawing from the nylon business.

Gen. Leslie P. Groves, the construction engineer now presented to the world as a physicist. One minor point nettling the scientists is the scarcity of water at Los Alamos, New Mexico, and the fact that the army now is trucking water up to the project from the Rio Grande river at a cost to the U. S. taxpayer of several thousand dollars a day. The army failed to consider the scarcity of water in the New Mexican desert, did not build a pipeline, or enough retaining dams to conserve water, so that Los Alamos at times this winter has had no water at all. For a time the water was turned otf entirely, with the pipes undrained, so that they froze and burst. During that period, scientists were so irate, it would have been worth General Groves' life to have come up on the hill where they live. Today almost every gasoline truck in that part of New Mexico has been hired to haul water up the steep mountain road to Los Alamos from the Rio Grande. KAISERS DILEMMA Henry Kaiser paid a call on several steel executives before he finally paid a call on the justice department to ask for anti-truprosecution 'of the steel moguls. First Kaiser called on Ernest Wier, head of Wierton Steel, and said he wanted to buy steel to manufacture his new automobile. Wier gave him a polite "No." Then Kaiser called on Ben Fairless of U. S. Steel, who said he probably could handle some orders in the dim and distant future. Last, Kaiser dropped in on Republic Steels Tom Girdler and Charlie White. Girdler was hopping mad. When Kaiser said he wanted to buy steel to build automobiles, Big Tom replied: When the fellows were in trouble in Detroit, what d d you do, Henry? You went out and signed up with the union, leaving the rest of us to fight them alone. And then when we were in trouble ourselves with the steel workers, what did you do? You raced down to Washington and signed up for 18 'a cents, leaving Uo holding the st industry. So the big boys have the power ' to wreck Kaisers production. There is just ne thing, however, which they may not have laws. figured on the anti-truJustice department officials say act that the Sherman anti-truwas written for the express purpose of safeguarding free competition.
