Gene wasn't quite sure, so he stepped around behind the. car and checked the license plates. Sure enough, it was his car. “Are you sure you have the right car?” he asked the mechanic.

And the two cars even had ‘the same style seat covers. ‘ P. S. Gene paid for the 15 gallons of gas.
Nope, No Swords |
EXTRA, EXTRA!“Inside Indianapolis has it pretty straight from the Chief’s (outer) office that there's nothing to that rumor that all police above the rank of sergeant are to start carrying swords. Someone phoned Inside with the rumor and said Lieut. Carl Ashley had been seen carrying one of the swords on Indiana Ave. It was just a Knight Templar sword, said Al Schlensker, the Chief’s secretary. That settles that. . . . During last Friday's fog, a couple of men vainly attempted to flag down a streetcar on N. Illinois St. just south of Fall Creek, but the cars just glided past them. Finally one of the men touched .a match to his morning paper. The next car stopped.

Give ’Em a Break
YOU CAN LOOK for Santa’s fan mail: fo start running a high percentage of squawks. The reason is clear if you happen to pass the southwest corner of Market and Illinois and see the crowd in front of Block’s Santa display. The six-foot adults all jam’ up to the window, leaving the little tots on the outside, where they #an’t see a thing but a solid wall of coat tails. C'mon guys; give ’em a break, . . . Several cars were parked in the no parking space on Central Ave. between 29th and 30th. A squad car drove up and two blue coats got out and began putting stickers on the illegally parked cars. And where do you think they left their police car while they “stuck” the other cars. That's right. They parked in the “no park ing” zone themselves. :
Sound Advice From Eddie
"EDDIE RICKENBACKER, president of Eastern Air Lines, gives some good advice—good. for all of
. us—in the E. A. L. employee publication. After out-
lining the perils faced by his company in the current era of economic chaos, Captain Eddie advises: “During this period of high wages and what I consider false prosperity, it is your duty and obligation to yourself and family to save part of what ybu earn. no matter how large or how small, for that old adage that you cannot spend as much or more than you earn,and be prepared for a rainy day is as true today as itswas a thousand years ago. -
“If you cannot afford it, do without it. If you|
cannot pay cash for it, wait until you can; but do not under any circumstances permit yourself to mortgage your future and that of your family through time payment plans or other devices. “If you prepare yourself now you will spare yourself much suffering later.”
Life’s Little Dramas
A NICE LOOKING young man about 25 or so stood outside the employees’ entrance at Ayres’ Saturday night. When a certain young woman. stepped out the door, he rushed over to meet her, greeting her with an excited: “I-got my- raise.” “Oh, goody,” as, excitedly; “How much did you get?” all I asked for and now you can quit work.” _ There were probably 50 people standing near and most of them smiled sympathetically. But the young couple just went on their way utterly unaware there was anyone else within a half mile,

Washingt Washington WASHINGTON, Dee, 2—Because of the combined opposition of labor leaders and spokesmen for industry, Congress appears to have abandoned the idea of compulsory arbitration. ° : | At the time Congressional leaders conferred with = President - Roosevelt a few days ago, this was favored as the ultimate weapon to prevent defense strikes. - But with both sides strongly in opposition the measure lacks the support necessary to its practical use, in the judgment of some Congressional leaders. Charles: R. Hook, speaking for the National Association of Manufacturers, said compulsory arbitration meant that settlements would be imposed by outsiders. ..He_ suggested that awards thus =e > forced upon the contending parties, as distinguished from cases where the parties voluntarily accept arbitration, result in dissatisfaction which breeds. further trouble. In normal times there would be no question about his point. ‘The emergency may, however, reach a stage where, like it or mot, management and labor will be obliged, fot the public interest, to accept compulsory arbitration.
~ Compulsory Cooling Off
THE CENTERPIECE of the labor legislation which Congress is now working on is the compulsory 1 gpoling-off period. i No lcckouts by ‘employers would be permitted. "lhat is easy. The Government can seize the plant if the employer doesn’t obey the law. The difficulty’ comes in enforcing it on the employees. The bill, to stay within the Constitution, does not prohibit an employee from quitting work during the obligatory cooling-off period. But it does prohibit any union leader from calling a strike or from instigating a walkout. The unions, and particularly the union leaders, are fighting ‘this because it. would deprive them of
By Raymond Clapper
their chief power in the emergency. This opposition probably will not succeed, and the chances of coolingoff legislation are good. ) But that isn’t going to solve the problem. . No law is going to solve it any more than prohibition stopped people from drinking. A law can throw some obstacles in the “way. A law can prohibit employers from doing certain things, as the Wagner Act does. "A law can also prohibit officials of labor unions from doing certain things, as the Wagner Act should do. Labor officials are the only unregulated executives of monopolies left in the country.
Equivalent to Public Utility
UNIONS ARE STILL private groups of individuals although they occupy a place in the community that is the equivalent of a public utility. If there is reason in the public interest to prescribe what a board of
directors of a public utility may or may not do, there
is equally good reason for prescribing limits to what the officers of a‘union may do. No private citizen should have, free of any restriction, the power which John Lewis ‘exercises.
Because it has been considered sound public policy| § to permit men to organize for collective bargaining—|.;
and the Supreme Court took that attitude, even before Roosevelt loaded it—the Federal Government gives protection. The same consideration would see with equal logic to justify Government, cbntrol to prevent abuses of this protection. A Beyond that we are dependent, as a democracy is in many other matters, upon the self-restraint and good citizenship of the people themselves. If men and women who belong to unions are going to become a special group indifferent to an emergency, determined to strike and slug under any circumstances, then you have a large part of the citizenship refusing to dischajge the first obligations of citizenship, and your democracy is folding up to make way for the strong man. We have to assume that the bulk of the citizens who belong to labor unions are like all ‘other Americans and will respond in the same way when not misled by union officials. If we can’t assume that, then our form of free government is going to change.
Vichy’s Surrender By David N. Nichol
BERN, Dec. 2—The attention of Europe is divided today between the Pacific crisis and French Chief of State Marshal Henri Philippe Petain’s meeting with Goering and a still unnamed “high German official.” The general course of the conversations appears clear in‘ view of Vichy’s .actiohs during the last month. Interest is focussed now on what specific form these new conceSsions will take and what France will receive in return. It is unlikely that Italy is being represented as was at first . planned. The Frankfurter Zeitung in a Paris report indicates the possibility at least that France may join the “moral union” 'as the German press refers to the exait 3 panded anti-commintern pact. 5 It quotes extensively the French press of the occupied area, asking why France is not participating in view of Vichy’s anti-Communist stand ‘and the presence of French “volunteers” in the eastern front.

It has now declared itself ready to undertake his task “if France requests it.” The removal of Gen. Maxime Weygand as Vichy’s North African proconsul was obviously one step in this direction. The fact that the conference is occurring at all seems to indicate the new setback of Italy. which

when in Asia the affairs of Japan are approaching a crisis. .. A great victory for the British in the Libyan desert would ring around the world, with repercussions everywhere injurious to the German cause, unless it could be offset by the capture of Moscow.
Must Have Victory
Nothing less, ‘no advance in southern Russia, for, example, would serve the purpose of the German political machine. Hence, German soldiers by: the thousand have had to die beneath the hail of Russian fire along the western defenses of the Soviet capital. The freezing of the ground has enabled the German mechanization to move faster and farther than during the mud-and slush period of a few weeks ago. The Germans, therefore, tried for the ambitious goal of a double encirclement, north and south, according to their time-honored tactical ideas. In both cases they gained ground—to Klin, and to Stalinogorsk.
Advance Units Cut Off
The holding attack in the center, meanwhile, doubtless served the purpose of all holding attacks by “fixing” the. Russian troops in its immediate front. : But it did not “fix” the Russian reserves, some of which have now been put in to counter-attack in both areas. In both, the result appears to have been the same, the ‘advance German armored elements were cut

They now face not only the problem

war, but also the .danger of prolonged exposure’ to the growing cold of a Russian winter. The immediate issue turns, therefore, on whether the Germans now dispose of sufficient reserves to rescue their forward eléments and to continue to gain groumth by breaking down the inner shoulders of the salients they have formed and thus forcing the Russian center back toward Moscow. # Should they do this, a renewal of the encircling movement might follow, in the hope of cutting more of the lines of supply of the Russian capital. = “ group of Marshal Timoshenko seems, for the moment at amy rate, to have passed definitely to the offensive and to be driving back the Germans on a wide front with the

The basis of Russian tactics in this war appears to be the application of the principle that counterattack is the heart and soul of successful defense. ~The present situation around Moscow well illustrates their use of this maxim of.war. Unwilling to accept stalemate, the Germans took advantage of a break-in the weather to launch
assault upon. the Russian capital.
The German High Command, of course, thinks “big picture.”
They are probably anticipating they are desperately trying to whip

against the shore of the Sea of Azov unless the Germans can extricate themselves in time. This is probably the explanation of the admitted German evacuation of Rostov, an announcement which the Germans were compelled fo make but’ made with such ill grace as to ascribe’ the withdrawal to an intention to “punish” the civilian population of the city for alleged guerilla activities. , A glance at the map will show, however, that Timoshenko’s advance to the southwest, directed upon Mariupol, threatens to cut! off the German forces in Rostov as it approaches Mariupol, thus necessitating a quick retirement at least by the most forward elements of the German forces to avoid capture. { A German disaster at Rostov, coming simultaneously with the probable German defeat in Libya would have results in the moral field out of all proportion to its intrinsic valuation. :
