‘Bad Temper Is No Part of Free Speech’

‘By MRS. WALTER FERGUSON * Times Special Writer

IN THE MIDDLE of a long queue of customers, waiting to get their first rationed groceries, a woman} was loudly complaining about her shopping woes. There were low mutterings around her, but she was snorting. . By the time she had ‘irched her way to the cashier her conscience probably was needling her, for shé said, so all could hear: “I - suppose I should not be grumbling. I guess you think I'm a poor sport.’ : “No, lady,” said the man behind the counter. “I've got a son in the Solomon islands; he’s out there fighting for your right to ‘beef,” so 11 say, go right ahead and grumble. It’s all right with us.” There were no more mutterings. The thought of boys dying for our liberty to complain cleared the atmosphere, ” » » ..THESE ARE DAYS when we must draw upon our reserve funds of patience and kindness. All stores and shops are short of help, Those carrying ‘on. are overworked. Tired bodies make for muddled minds. It's easy to give short, sharp answers, to forget the old ways of politeness. On the other hand, customers are more weary and worried than ever, They still deserve fair treatment and consideration from sales people. When they don’t get it, they snap at each other and at the clerks. So, pretty soon, we're all acting like a bunch of snarling curs, yapping at each other’s heels... _ Clerks and oustomérsi—we're all in

to see it through. Impatience and bad temper may be natural, under the circumstances, but let’s not believe they are any part of free speech. “Plain meanness” would be a better definition, and certainly our hoys aren’t fighting to make the world safe for that.

prevailed since OPA announced dollars-and-cents ceilings applicable to all retailers April 15, quieted down somewhat this week when OPA agreed to put the plan into effect gradually, and promised modifications. The changed policy was announced after conferences Lere at which both manufacturers and sellers of womep’s stockings protested the order. In promising changes, OPA admitted that the changes “will have the effect of greatly increasing the quantity of grade A hosiery readily available.”

order was adopted, OPA said, so that it might relate prices to the quality of the product. This is the same system that has been adopted for pricing meat, and OPA has been wanting to ‘apply it to canned goods, with the quality ‘determined by grade labeling.

Hosiery Order First

The hosiery order was the first issued in the apparel industry, though studies are under way looking to dollars-and-cents ceilings for heavy underwear, and work clothes new ceiling" system is proposed only for

products that ean be standardized,

where no element of high enters in, But retailers were particularly disturbed because the new system was starting in the middle of the Easter buying season, when they said it would be impossible to remark all their stock. They also feared they would take a serious oss on much of thelr present stoeks. Wholesalers said that unless margins were raised to 20 per cent of the price of seamless stockings and to 18 per cent of the price of fullfashioned hosiery they would not be able to operate profitably. They also charged that compulsory reduction in -the price of goods on hand would be confiscation of property. : Their conference here produced eight. major complaints against the order.

Issues Statement

In her plans for the state meeting Mrs. Conkle said: “Everyone of us hopes that this will be the last war: But while we are in the very midst of battle we must begin to plan for the time of peace which will follow. ‘If we feel that Parent-Teacher

Nominees Listed

“The work,” she added, “that thousands of Parent-Teacher members are doing is recognized as having a very definite wartime value. Let us do the things we know we should do.
