Inside Indianapolis
IN 1908 A CUB reporter om The New York Times had an opportunity to see the effects of the nation’s No. 1 Killer—tuberculosis. He made it his life work. Fresh out of New York university, imbued with the
. spirit of public service, Murray A. Auerbach, executive
pecretary of the Indiana Tuberculosis association for the past 26 years, decided to enroll in a public health course at Columbia university. His mother, who had
encouraged him to study medicine, approved of his
new interest wholeheartedly: It was in 1909 in Erie, Pa., where Mr. Auerbach began his 37 years of work of promoting knowledge, raising funds, and teaching the public that tuberctlosis can be conquered. Shortly an opportunity in the same type of work opened up in Arkansas: He served as secretary of the State Tuberculosis association in Little Rock, Ark. until world war I broke ‘out. At the age of 36, he enlisted in the army sanitary corps. After the armistice he was mustered out as first lieutenant and immediately accepted the post of regional secretary of the National Tuberculosis association in Atlanta, Ga. “When
I came to Indianapolis on Sept. 20, 1920, I had no
idea how long I was going to stay—but after 26 years it's beginning to look like I'm here for good,” Mr. Auerbach said.
Confirmed Pipe Smoker HIS FAVORITE quote in conjunction “with the 40th annual Christmas seal sale which opens Monday and continues to Christmas is, “The battle against tuberculosis is not a doctor's affair; it belongs to the the entire public.” The 1946 seal shows a smiling lamplighter which symbolizes a fresh hope to combat the disease after the war. “We don’t know exactly if it is due to the backwash of the war er not—but we do know that for the first nine months of 1946 the death rate from TB has increased in Indiana by 4.5 per cent over 1945" Putting aside oné pipe, Mr. Auerbach filled anoth and began puffing, “Yesterday was my 65th hday and I added two more pipes to my collection.” By collection he means more than 100 pipes of every size and description from nearly every country in the world. Although he is a confirmed pipe smoker, he doesn’t start his day with a pipe. He lights up a cigar right after breakfast and then switfhes to a pipe. Mr. Auerbach carries three of four pipes in his pockets and has several more in the office. Mr. Auerbach has no intention of retiring. With only a touch of gray on his temples, dressed in a light blue pin-striped suit, white shirt, striped tie and a tie pih, Mr. Auerbach not only does not look 65 he doesn't act 65. A member of Scottish Rite, Kiwanis, Columbia club, and the Indianapolis Athletic club, his favorite diversions are fishing in

WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.—Lee Clements was sit-
ting on his front porch near Barton, Ark. with the evening paper on his knee, watching his cotton grow. He spied an item about the government wanting to get rid of its war-time Big Inch and Little Big Inch pipelines. He got to thinking. And what I'm driving at is the fact that our democracy has its wonderful moments. The big-shot financiers with the bay windows only slightly disguised by $160 double-breasted suits were jammed into the marble-pillared hearing room. They were waiting to tell the ‘investigating committee of Rep. Roger Slaughter about their multi-million dollar bids for the $113,700,000 pipelines. “Mr. W. Lee Clements,” cried the clerk. The tall, gaunt, gray-headed Clements came forward. He adjusted his steel-rimmed eyeglasses. He fingered the two gold-plated pencils clipped in his vest. He said he wished the congressmen would let him read his statement. because he had spent his life growing cotton and was not so hot as a speechmaker. He laughed nervously over this small pleasantry. The moneybags from Wall st. squirmed on their green leather chairs. Mr. Clements began to read about how he'd pondered those pipelines stretching empty all the way from Texas to New York City.
The Farmer Says His Piece
“I AM A FARMER and I never had any interest in the oil business,” he "said, “and I wanted to make sure the government could get back those pipelines if it ever needed em again.” He drummed up the idea among his friends, whom he named. He organized a corporation and he put in a formal bid with the war assets administration to rent the lines. “But what guarantee do you give the government that it will receive a definite sum of money?” asked Rep. John J. Rooney of N. Y.
Aviation
- THE PUBLIC is entitled to some practical observations on airplane crashes and their causes. Back in 1923, this writer, a young lieutenant in the navy, in a study on crashes, estimated that between 80 per cent and 85 per cent of them were traceable directly to the pilot or to the men who detail pilots to specific tasks. At the time, this caused a commotion among the non-flying command, and bitter complaints from my own flying comrades. But the estimate was based upon expeience and it stuck. Cockpit trouble is the reason for most of the crashes, with only 15 to 20 per cent of the crashes attributable to engine or other mechanical faildres. Flying is unlike any other enterprise I know of in that it is a one-stroke ballgame in which the basic field rule is: “No errors of either omission or commission permissible.” 2 Such a standard diametrically contradicts the fallibility of human nature. All men make mistakes. Pilots are men, hence they make mistakes, too—mistakes of judgment and execution. The only difference with the pilot is that a mistake all too often is dramatically conclusive.
Same Men as Drive Cars WHY SHOULDN'T we have accidents in the air? The men who fly airplanes are drawn from the same families, the same bloodstreams from which come the auto drivers who cause 35,000 to 38,000 fatalities a year, and 300,000 to 400,000 injuries a year on the highways. We seem to accept such a casualty list without question. If 15 to 20 per cent of the airplane crashes are attributable to mechanical failures, it would be interesting indeed to get some authentic estimate on the percentage of motorist casualties caused by breakdown or failure of equipment. . It is my guess that this percentage would be some-
My Day -
NEW YORK, Friday—I was shocked to read of the attack on as United Nations delegate from the Ukraine in a midtown shop, where a robbery was occurring when he and another member of the delegation went in ‘to buy some fruit. When I asked the Ukrainian representative on Committee 3 about it and heard the details, it seemed almost unbelievable that such a thing could happen practically on 5th ave. at 11:30 at night, Gregory Stadnik, the victim, is now lying ill in a hospital, As hokts to the United Nations, we Americans feel grave concern. The representatives of other nations who come to meet here should certainly be safe while they are in our midst. We can only hope that Mr. Stadnik will recover quickly and . that the care’ he receives will be of the best. It is regrettable if, as suggested by Dmitri Manuilsky, chief Ukrainian delegate, there is some political background to this attack.
Coal Operators Happy NOW, TO TURN to the coal situation, which seems to me more and more regrettable, I hear that some of the coal operators who are in and out of a big Washington hotel look very well satisfied these days. They apparently are not any more worried than is John L. Lewis about the stoppage of industty, the lack of work which is bound to follow, ‘and the discomfort which is sure to be in store for the vast majority of citizens, They apparently, look upon ‘the present situation as a great opportunity, since the government is about é ak " ,

summer and bowling in winter. “But, I don't pave too much time for either,” he added.
Hopes Quota Will Be Met
“MY GREATEST satisfaction comes when I look back over the years and see the death rate by tuberculosis go down,” Mr, Auerbach said. In 1920 when he became executive secretary of I. T. A, the death rate per 100,000 popdilation in Indiana was 1744. In 1945 the death rate was 31.9, Seven sanatoriums have been built during the 26 year period making a total of 12 with an increase of 1370 beds. “You can't do a good job in combating tuberculosis if you .are not interested in public health generally,” is his conviction. “Indiana ranks third in the United States in per capita sales of stamps. I hope we can maintain that position because our 1946 quota is $610,000,” Mr, Auerbach added. He lives at 5373 Central ave., with his daughter, Alice Whitney Auerbach, who is a medical technician at the I. U. Medical center, Money from the sale of seals will be used for school health programs, tuberculosis clinics, tuberculin testing, group X-ray, and indust. health and rehabilitation. (By Ed Sovola.)

“None,” snapped Mr. Clements. He said, after all, if the government wanted its pipelines back in case of a future war and told him what to haul in same, then the government.should take some of the risk. He said he could carry anything the federals wanted in the pipes; oil, gas, or whatever. His partners agreed, he added, to put up about $1,000000 in cash to prove they were not fooling.

BY MARGUERITE SMITH WHEN PLANTS usually raised for. foliage produce a flower it's an event. Mrs. Edgar May, 1839 Singleton st, has a succulent that is flowering for the second time this season. Succulent is a nice general term to include fat leaved specimens from practically every family in the plant world. They are often sold as cacti. But true cactus fans insist on the fact that while most cacti are succulents, most succulents are definitely not cacti. They have all developed their fleshy stems and leavef” to hold water to carry them through the dry periods common to their native homes in desert and semi-desert places. - So in general they take much the same treatment. . » * ¢ MRS. MAY'S plant has white splotched, saw toothed leaves thick at the base. They indicate it is probably an aloe of the kind called gasteria, or, from the shape of the leaf, ox tongue or hart's tongue. The flowers Mrs. May describes as resembling little coral beads. They grow on: a long thin stem and begin to open even while the

where between 3 and 5 per cent. Even at that, the!
© first signs of mechanical failure usually allow the
alert motorist plenty of time to reduce speed or bring the vehicle to a standstill whereas the airplane mechanical] failure means trouble in achieving the] standstill. Of course, in this discussion I am eliminating what | I believe to be the main factor responsible for the; over-stressing of airplane accidents. In the first place, the airplane is a dramatic piece of machinery. It is doing for man the things he has| dreamed of for thousands of years. Its news values) are abnormally high in an age which has not yet| accepted the airplane for what it is and is not—and in short, does not understand.

Nevertheless, both | vehicles kill people, but we accept the motor car casualties and refuse to understand that air casualties | are inevitable. Flying is an exacting, full-time career business. The most dangerous pilot is the one who flies intermittently. And the pilot with fewer than thousands of hours flying time who steps into a cockpit at intervals of two or three weeks—without a check flight— is headed for trouble. It is high time the private flier, representing the | general public, take take stock of aviation's basic principles, chief among which is: “The only answer to flying casualties is more flying.” The flying man! is bound to make mistakes but he can't let them catch up with him,

to do for them what they want to do but might not be able to accomplish alone, Naturally, both the A. F. of L. and the C. I. O. must support Mr, Lewis when he asserts that he has the right to call a strike, even against the government of the United States. He is putting them, however, into a situation which may in the end mean the loss of many of the legal advantages gained during the past 13 years. Whatever they do in public, I hope that in private they are giving Mr. Lewis some very candid opinions on the extremely | difficult position in which he is placing labor as a whole,
How One Miner Feels
J READ one story of an interview with a miner who remarked that, before my husband came into office, he .(the miner) had had many weéks when he made between $56 and $10 a week. Today he is making an average of $50 to $60 a week. He didn't quite understand what the strike was about, but the “big boss” had ordered it and “we obey arders.” What a pathetic story! Strikés bring hardship to the working men and their families. They mean loss to management and, in the case of a basic industry like coal, they mean loss to many industries and to many men in other occupations. I don't see how John L. Lewis can sleep quietly at night. To defy your government and throw thousands of men out of work, with

Knight, president of the oil workers, from the race for one of the vice presidencies. were the ‘only victories of the left-wingers in the five-day convention. The pro-Communist group of C. I. O. leaders was embittered by the C. I. O. public denouncement of the Communist party and denial of re-election of President Reid Robinson of the Smelter Workers as a C. I. O. vice president. They were reported to have exerted considerable pressure on the United Steelworkers to switch from Mr. Knight to Mr. Thomas and to have neutralized the U.-A. W, to prevent opposition to Mr. Thomas. The deal was pushed through minutes . before nominations for the nine vice presidencies began. It caught many of the right wingers so unexpectedly that a final floor fight threatened to flare when executive vice president George Baldanzi of the Textile Workers union protested election of two vice presidents from one union.

Jowed by tiny black seeds. Mrs. May has her plant potted in garden soil but the soil in the Mays’ garden has been enriched and loosened over a period of years by the leaves Mr. May buries in it each fall. So it provides good drainage of excess water, important for any fat-leaved plant. Then Mrs. May waters it only once a week, putting it under a spray when she gives all of her houseplants their weekly bath. » ” ® IN THE SUMMER ‘the plant blossomed on the front porch where it got only late afternoon sun. Now she has it in a sunny south window. When she got it five years ago it was only an inch-high sprig the size of the tiny offshoots now appearing. around its base. ~MiwMay is-expert with outdoor plants, too.

Some in C. 1. O. Object to Auto Workers’ 3 Votes
By FRED W. PERKINS ATLANTIC CITY, Nov. 28.—A question among 600 CO. I. O. dele~ gates as they streamed home from their convention city today was whether Philip Murray had over- , reached in effecting the appearance of unity in this big labor organ
-
sald so, because Mr, Murray had. brought about the election of twe C, I. O. vice presidents from the same union, the United Automo= - bile Workers. . . » ” ” GEORGE BALDANZI of New York, executive vice president of the textile workers’ union, had proe tested from the floor in the cone vention's only open demonstration of lack of harmony. He pointed out that there are 40 international unions in the C. I, O, and that the OC. I. O., customarily gave equal representation to all of them, The C. I. O. has nine vice presi= dents. Heretofore they all have come from different unions, One of them ‘has been R. J. Thomas, now a vice president of the auto workers. He was displaced as president of his union last spring in a heated factional fight, by . Walter Reuther. This made it practically necessary that Mr. Reuther become a C. I. O. vice president in the convention here, . ” » HE WAS NOMINATED, and Mr, Thomas also was nominated—not by his own union, but by DavidMcDonald, a right-hand man to Mr. Murray in the United Steel Workers union. There were 10 nominees, the 10th being O. A, Knight, president of the Inter national Oil Workers union. But Mr. Knight withdrew at the last moment, on advice of a Murray lieutenant, it was reported, to avoid a roll-call vote and a possible display of controversy, It was then that Mr. Baldansl pointed out the automobile union would have an undue representation in the C. I, O's central gove erning agency, the executive board, This body consists of the president, the secretary-treasurer, the nine vice presidents, and 40 others representing each of the unions. The auto workers will have three votes on this board. In addition to Mr. Reuther and Mr, Thomas, they, will have George Aflides, the U. A. W. secretary-treasurer, who was nominated by this union as its executive board member, » » ” THIS CONTROVERSY IS mixed vp with the fight between “lefts” and - “rights” ‘That conflict has seethed all week in closed commite tee meetings, and Mr. Murray was all but successful in keeping it from the convention floor. Mr. Reuther is an active antie Communist. Mr. Thomas is not a Communist, but he has been supported by leftists in the frequent battles within the auto workers, His selection was regarded as a cone cession by Mr, Murray to the Com munists in the C. I. O. Also," the presence of Mr. Thomas on the board will operate to neutralize Mr, Reuther, the man who ousted him from the presidency of his union.
