‘Superintendents’ on New ‘Job’

THE SIDEWALK SUPERINTENDENTS who were “out of work” after Strauss got moved, have just changed sides of the street now. They're lining up at the point of Illinois, Kentucky and Washington sts. to watch painters put up the big handpainted Coca-Cola sign. The sign, incidentally, isn't just painted there. It's painted on in foot squares, like 8 jig-saw puzzle, with every new picture requiring about 40 hours to paint, One of the men who's working on the new sign is Harry A. Krischbaum, 2702 Barth ave, who's brushed countless brushfuls of paint on the sign in his years at the job. During this time he’s helped out on 12 new coats a year, and observers say he can almost do the work blindfolded now. - It's estimated that some 300,000 persons who pass that spot daily glance appre ciatively at the sign, and that's a bigger crowd than Rembrandt's pictures draw . . , A worker in the OPA district office says she can always tell when & veteran asks for a certain rent office dorm.

Vienna Odyssey

VIENNA, Austria, June 27.—~“To Vienna you are going, yes? You will sit with me; I am speaking very good English.” So I sat in the coach with him. "Twas a lovely morning. I had spent several enjoyable days in Budapest and was headed north. Everything was unusual, interesting. Trains were loaded with several thousand residents of Budapest en route to the country. They carried myriad articles with which to barter for food on the farms. In the evening the train would bring them back loaded with edibles. My English-speaking friend had been a big landowner, the land reforms had sneaked up on him and he now rides to the Austrian border, meets the trucks carrying the parcels you Americans send friends over here, and rides back to Budapest with them.

No Guns—'‘It Is Most Awful’

“THEY MUST be guarded every foot of the way,” he said ominously. “The Russians you know—terrible!” I looked closer. He was harmless and fragile to look at. “Where are your guns?” I asked. “I carry none,” he replied. “It is most awful.” There were only eight in the compartment, which means we were lucky. We had a Hungarian painter and his French wife, a Romanian of doubtful pursuits, a young Budapest actress, a Hungarian youth who worked for the British Red Cross, and a beautiful Hungarian countess. “You do not speak German or Hungarian,” they said, “so we will look out for you.” “But I'm all right,” I protested, “I don’t need aid. My papers—" They smiled. “Ah,” said the French lady, “it is plain yeu do not know the Russians.”

“They are awful,” said my friend. “Last Tuesday

A * t * THE SCENE was one of our big airports, the event was a gasoline-engined model airplane flying meet. The contestants ranged from gray-haired men to teen-agers. The model planes, all personally designed and built, exhibited different and radical ideas of what airplanes—even models—could look like and still fly. Under the guidance of an announcer the crowd paused alertly for the special event of the day. At-° tention was directed to a corner of the field, where a mobile air corps truck was located. Nearby, seated before a small desk that somewhat resembled a model telephone exchange was an air corps officer fussing with electric plug-in leads. Then he grasped a control ptick (the same kind used to direct and fly life-sized aircraft). ' He pressed a button which controlled a catapult, There was a subdued swogsh, a light spot of smoke, and a tiny model which couldn't have measured more than five feet from wing tip to wing tip and powered by a two-cylindered gas engine, sailed into the air.

Plane Flies Accurately

THIS MODEL was the air corps, latest radio-con-trolled anti-aircraft target plane. It was an uncanny demonstration of the almost unbelievable results achieved by science. This air corps pilot on the ground actually was flying that little plane overhead, and the plane was lying precisely and accurately, executing complicated aneuvers. Back In 1939 I predicted that some day entire squadrons of life-sized, pilotless bombers would be ontrolled by radio from a master plane far over-

HYDE PARK, Wedhesday.—Yesterday IT pdld my first summer yjsit to Wiltwyck School for Boys. Mr. Stillman, the assistant director, told my four guests a little about the school and showed them around. One of my guests had never been to a school there boys are sent from the courts, and he was stounded to hear that institutions for the rehabilitalion: of young offenders are not run in the same way as private boarding schools. When we explained o him what some of the differences are, he said quite firmly that he thought he would like to turn his back upon the human race, since he did not onsider that any child should be treated as a riminal, That parents could be cruel, that people who run institutions could become callous, that taxpayers ould be indifferent—all these things seemed to him n indictment of the human race. I suppose they e, but you have to take things as you find them in his world and do what you can to remedy them.

4 Million Delinquent Boys

FINALLY, SOMEBODY asked Mr. Stillman how many boys he had at Wiltwyck, and he said 80. Then was asked how many delinquent children there re in the country, and he said he did not know the tistics but thought they might run up to the million mark. A profound gloom seemed to settle upon ny guest, and he said, “But you are only scratching he surface.” EE ¥ 3 I could not help laughing because that

head. And now that “some day” is here. The air corps already has demonstrated its ability to control the flight of life-sized combat planes from the cockpit of another combat plane. What will we do with this accomplishment? How will we put it to work?

Fantastic? Perhaps Not

* ud WE ALREADY have the “automatic pilot”—a gadget which, when set in the cockpit, will guide and fly a plane shortly after a takeoff, climb it at a desired rate of climb, level it off at a determined altitude, and hold it in level flight on a determined compass course, bringing it down at a determined rate of descent. What will some ‘inspired engineering genius do with these tools—the radio control of plane flight and the automatic. pilot? Are we approaching the day when one pilot in.a cargo carrier will be flying two or three other cargo planes from the cockpit of his own freight-laden ship? This would mean the elimination of operation costs repfesented by several highly paid pilots and crews. Fantastic? Well, you suggest something: And if you are ready to remove the halter from your imagination, what about flying cargo without pilots, tying these ships to the radio directional beams and passing them along from one radio monitoring ground station after another along the right of way?| Air navigation, once an intricate art, has been virtually taken over by radio. Flight control is now in the hands of the automatic pilot. Radar and

electronics may eventually replace the human pilot's hands.

Sometimes as many as 70 were clustered in an open area, which first had been tennis courts, and later a barrage balloon site.

Capitol Splits Sharply Over Foreman Fight

By FRED W. PERKINS |

WASHINGTON, June 27--All three branches of the government, executive, legislative and judicial, are concerngd with the biggest current problem in labor relations --whether foremen should be ore ganized into unions of the ranke and-flle workers they supervise. The executive branch is repree sented by the national labor relas tions board, which by two to ‘one says foremen have all the rights of employees under the Wagner law; by President Truman, who vetoed the Case bill, which banned unionization of foremen; and by Interior Secretary J. A. Krug, who is making a contract with the United Mine Workers for unionie zation of foremen.

» » ” THE JUDICIAL branch comes In through an early decision by Jus tice Jennings Bailey, of the U. 8, district court here that the Jones & Laughlin Steel Co., one of the concerns with coal mines now under government seizure, had no ground for an injunction against Mr. Krug, The company lawyers say they will appeal immediately. The legislative branch is in i$ because the house has passed seve eral bills to prevent wide unionie zation of foremen; the senate ace quiesed in passing the Case bill} and now Senator Ball (R. Minn.) is trying to limit appropriations for the N. L. R, B. to keep it from using any money to process cases brought before it by or in behalf of supervisory employees.

n = n THERE SEEMS to be a racé on between the executive and legisla tive branches. The executive through Mr. Krug, is trying to sete tle the foreman question for the mines before either congress or ane other court can act. John D. Battle, executive secres tary of the National Coal associae tion, described Justice Bailey's ace tion as “a shocking event of fare reaching import,” in effect withe drawing the courts’ traditional proe tection of private property. “No one knows how long the gove ernment will retain possession of the mines,” sald Mr. Battle. “The war powers under which the gove ernment is proceeding may be cone tinued for years,

o ” - - “IF CONTENTIONS advanced by government attorneys are to stand, the government has a free hand to do as it pleases with the property comprising one of Ameri« ca's greatest basic industries vale ued in billions, “The government is free to put into effect innumerable changes in’ operating conditions that might well make it impossible for the private owners ever to take back their properties and operate them successfully as a private enters prise.” Secretary Krug, in a press cone ference that followed Justice Bailey's decision but was not directly related to it, said Mr. Battle was “always wrong.” Mr. Krug de clared he was against nationalization of coal mines.

n » » HE ADDED he was “a believer in free enterprise.” But he ade mitted government possession of the coal mines will not be ended during the existence of a strike threat against the part of coal production essential to national wel fare, , ' This statement by Mr. Krug leaves the situation where it has been periodically and for some time —the president of the United Mine Workers is boss of production in a vital industry, and at present is favored by the government's ‘exe ecutive and judicial branches against the legislative branch. “There ought to be a law,” says

THE DOCTOR SAYS: Reactions to Pain Vary

By WILLIAM A. O'BRIEN, M. D. INDIVIDUALS vary greatly in their reactions to pain, although all who are equally alert and attentive feel pain at the same time. The idea that sensitive persons feel pain more easily than those¢ who are less sensitive is not true. Dr. Harold G. Wolff and assoclates report in their “Cornell Conferences on Therapy” that reactions to pain vary with age, training, race, concentration, attitude, confidence in a physician, and the way in which a pain-relieving drug 1s given. Pain may be a sign warning of serious disease, and those who feel it less acutely may delay in contacting a physician.

While children in pain require sympathetic assistance, parents: who magnify every small hurt may create false concepts of pain in their children’s minds, Boys and girls should be trained to expect that certain things will hurt, but that relief will be obtained as soon as possible. - .The English always have been noted for their restraint in expressing their feelings, while some of the other races react excessively on the slightest provocation.

» » " INDIVIDUALS who do not cooperate in controlling their reactions to pain can be helped by suggestions or by pain-relieving drugs. Mothers know the value of distraction as a means of relieving pain in childhood. Telling an interesting experience or reading a story to a sick child may make the pain disappear.
