Part of a Nationwide Movement to Raise Funds for the Renef it of Polio Victims

The Marion County Chapter of the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis, Inc., opened di°ir twelfth annual fund-raising campaign Friday, January 4, at a noon meeting of the executive council. Roy J. Badollet, president, announced Henry O. Goett director of chapter activities and A. B. Good, assistant director. Tentative plans announced 65 Indianapolis civic and benevolent organizations participating. The executive committee will co-ordinate the movement and fund-raising activities in January, as in the last 11 years. This is a part of a nation-wide movement to raise funds for the benefit of polio victims through recognized orthopedic institutions, hospitals and schools. Last year the chapter raised $51,000 in the county. Theaters, under the direction of Kenneth C. Collins, through public contributions, turned in $12,806.92. A. F. L. and C. I. O. unions contributed $5,822.56. W. Blaine Patton, chairman of the sports division, raised $7,215.48. Business firms, P.-T. A. organizations, women’s clubs and other individual contributors were responsible for the remaining amount of the fund. Mr. Goett said the 1946 goal will be determined by Indianapolis citizens, contributing whatever amount they wish. He pointed out that with 283 old polio cases in the county and additional new cases the last year, there is a continuing need for funds. She Never Knew She washed the windows, scrubbed the floors And did the many countless chores It takes to keep a house so neat . . . and yet She never saw the world outside The clover fields so big and wide And missed the first Spring violet! Just lived to clean with all her might Missing all the gold sunlight, And yet she thought her life—complete And full. ’Tis true her active days Were crowded full in many ways This one who kept her house so neat! She never heard a robin sing To her that is some trivial thing. And meadows green with daisies —there She merely glances—casually, And ne’er has time for a bouquet; Or even one pinned in her hair! She never glimpsed against the sky The gorgeous pinioned birds that fly, z She can’t take time—for these. The stillness of an Autumn night The rhythm of wild geese in flight High, high above the trees! She never saw the naked trees Through wintery blast and icy freeze Respond to Spring’s soft balmy air And bring forth new born leafy things The way of Nature and of Springs For cleaning days—were there! —Anna E. Young.

HIGGINS Industries, Inc., New Orleans shipbuilders, shut down three big plants and began early in November to “farm out” forty million dollars worth of post-war business. In a tilt between two powerful labor unions, Andrew J. Higgins cast himself in the role of a bystander. His story was that industrial disputes had made it practically impossible for him to operate at a profit. Mr. Higgins has offered to sell •his plants to the unions and 1 think it is a splendid idea. Just think: here stand three modern plants. They shelter acres of desirable ground with water frontage. Such buildings can be adapted conveniently to the manufacture of many different items on a volume production scale. Labor is abundant and more workers are arriving daily. Plenty WORKING capital is no Money longer a problem to working people. The unions have fabulous wealth. Senator Edward V. Robertson of Wyoming recently named a dozen unions whose treasuries, he said, contain more than 160 million dollars all told. With men, money and machinery, the idea is feasible. One plant might be kept very busy sub-contracting Higgins* own unfilled orders. By going in business on their own account, unions have much to gain. For example: Nearly all labor organizations uphold principles upon which they disagree with orthodox business execu-

tives. The details include plant organization, retirement plans, vacations and medical service besides wages and hours. Who will argue that these plans do not deserve to be tried experimentally? Sound MOST industrial leaders Policy of today pre self-made men. Many of them skated on thin ice occasionally in the early heats of their business race. They had principles and they had courage and they took chances. Their venturesome spirits were supported by faith in their principles. Why should not some trade union take over a desirable plant somewhere Xand demonstrate its theories? Quite a few labor leaders advocate new economic principles. They insist that their plans can’t fail if faithfully pursued. And now come chances to prove the value of these new principles to an eager world. They can be tested independent of conventional sources of capital. Nearly any union has more cash reserve today than most big corporations had when they started. If neither Gulf Coast plant is suitable, one of the eight being offered by the rfc at Chicago might be better. Any spot where working men develop a new system better than the old, will be hallowed ground. America stands at the crossroads industrially and every patriotic citizen hopes we choose the right course. Will the unions now stake their wealth on their principles?
