Que Month 40 0ne Month All Mail Subscriptions Strictly In Advance .: Maybe We Can 'Shmooly' Russia

It Everyone, we trust, knows what a "shmoo" is. Al Capp

and Li'l Abner's contribution to mankind already has made

. itself a part of our everyday speech.

r- Well, seme of the "Operation Vittles" boys namely the fliers and crewmen in the great Berlin "airlift", got the idea

of making some shmoos, filling them with candy, and para cKuting them down cn Germany's hungry kids.

bomeone po.vnted cut that the wind-driit m the area where the shmoos ate to be dumped might cause a number

of them to land in Russian-held territory, and that in all

probability the Comrades in charge would snatch up all the

sijfnccs. " Well that's fine.

Drew Pearson for several months has been urging that we take a half-million or so surplus weather balloons, used"

bylthe meteorologists during the war and turn . them loose

where they would drift into Russia bearing gifts such as cftSdy, chewing gum, Mickey Mouse watches, etc.. and likewise carry a propaganda piece to let the Russian people know

lfEt America has notlrng but the friendliest and most peace

ful intentions toward them. Naturally any such bizarre and prcbably effective idea stiluck the striped-pants boys of the State Department with horror. It wasn't protocol. It "wasn't clone." So it hasn't been done. But if some of the Air Force shmoos strike a receptive choi'd among the Russians who happen to get them, then we think Pearson's idea ought to be tried out. 2 Sending a half-million friendship balloons into Russk wtuldn't. cost as much as a single day of the "airlift". It might make us enough friends--staH; enough of a grass-roots movement among the Russian people to cause the Kremlin td3ome tc its senses. Certainly it's worth trying. World War II shewed thf gwiat effectiveness of psychological warfare. Maybe psycho lcgrcal "peace-fare" would work just as well.

Railroads must operate around the clock every day and night of the year. . Although they know this, leaders of 16 railroad unions are demanding a five-day, Monday through Friday, week for one million railroad employes. They want 48. hours pay for 40 hours work in itself a 20 wage increase. They also demand a minimum of 12 hours pay for any work performed on Saturdays, and 16 hours pay for any work performed on Sundays and holidays. On top of all this they want an additional increase of 25c an hour for every employe! ' You'd Pay the Bill! Summing up these demands, they mean that these union leaders seek to force the railroads to give one million employes an annual raise which would average $1500 per ' employe! The total cost of this would be no less than VA billion dollars per year, .which is more than twice the expected net income of the railroads' this year. You'd pay the bill, because if these increased costs are forced u the railroad

they must have still further rate and fare increases. Demands Unreasonable These employes have had substantial raises during and since the war. Their Average weekly earnings are higher than the average weekly earnings of workers in manufacturing industries. They have more job security than the average worker in American industry. They also enjoy paid vacations, a retirement system and other advantages more generous than the average worker receives. In contrast with the demands of these 16 unions, which add up to the equivalent of 48c an hour, the Conductors and Trainmen recently settled their wage request for an increase of 10c an hour.

I mwmnniaBMiMiitiii mini in.

Railroads Run for Everybody Not Employes Alone The railroad industry must, serve not one but many groups producer?, businessmen, shippers, passengers and the general public night and day, every day of the year. These unions are proceeding in utter disregard of this important difference between railroads and other industries. Industrial plants can be shut down over weekends and holidays, but freight, mail, express and passengers must continue to move. Everybody who enters railroad employment knows this. Strike Threat On September 18, 1948, the leaders of these 16 unions began taking a strike voce. But the threat of a strike will not alter the 'opposition of tlie railroads lb such unreasonable demands!
