How To Invite Depression A man lived by the side of the road and sold hot dogs. He was hard of hearing so he had ■ no radio. He had trouble with his eyes so he read no newspapers. But he sold good hot dogs. He put up signs on the highway telling how good they were. He stood by the side of the road and cried: “Buy a hot dog, Mister.” And people bought. He increased his meat and bun orders. He bought a bigger stove to take care of his trade. He got his son home from college to help him. But then something happened— His son said, “Father, haven’t you been listening to the radio? There’s a depression on. The European situation is terrible. The domestic situation is worse.” Whereupon the father thought, “Well my son’s'been to college, He reads the papers and he listens to the radio, and he ought to know.” So the father cut down on his meat and bun orders, Took down his advertising signs. And no longer bothered to stand out on the highway to sen hot dogs. And his hot dog sales fell almost overnight. “You’re right son,” the father said to the boy, “We certainly are in the middle of a great depression.” —The Clarkson Letter.

ATTENTION VETS Bonus Wheels Turn As Applications Pour Into VA Another chapter in Indiana’s history has been written as wheels of the mammoth bonus machinery started turning to grind out the first steps in the payment of a bonus to Indiana veterans of World War IL Gov. Henry F. Schricker, who signed the 1949 General Assembly’s bonus act into law, drew the first application from a mail bag at the headquarters of the Indiana Department of Veterans Affairs, administrators of the bonus, in toe World War Memorial Building on N. Meridian stieet No bonus payment can be made until such time as there are sufficient funds accumulated thru toe increased gross income tax collection to pay all the claims at one tone. Various estimates place this approximate date in 1954.

Send Original Discharge Of the few applications already opened some were found to'contain photostatic copies of their original discharge papers, which are not acceptable. Also some envelopes even failed to contain any discharge papers. AH veterans were warned by bonus officials that the ORIGINAL discharge or separation papers must accompany all applications for the bonus payment It was also pointed out that if the veteran feels he will have any need for his original papers for any other purpose during the next 50 or 90 days, he should not apply for his bonus at the present time but instead conduct his other business with his discharge and then file for his bonus payment anytime before DEC. 31, 1950. Despite the fact nothing is gained by making immediate application, reports from over the state today revealed veterans were rushing to make application. The necessary forms are now available at over 3,000 locations throughout the state. Man First Class These locations include county service officers, major veterans organizations, Red Cross and other civic groups and many industrial establishments.

Bonus administration officials also emphasized today that application blanks are NOT available at their headquarters for individual veterans. Veterans were reminded that applications must be secured from the various organizations in his own community and then mailed to the Bonus Headquarters, when completed, by FIRST CLASS MAIL only. Registered mail greatly retards the entire bonus operation and serves no useful purpose for the veteran, it was pointed out, since each individual piece of mail has to be signed for. First class mail is just as safe as registered mail and will be processed much faster. The net national income in the United States dropped from 80 billion dollars in IfiOO to 40 billion dellars in 1033, and rose to 80 billion dollars in 1037 and to 180 bfflion dollars in 1044.

MTEGRITY & CONTRACTS By GEORGES. BENSON FtosMant et Boding

ONE OF the qualities in human beings that our civilisation today needs so desperately is integrity. What is integrity? The word comes from a Latin term which meant “untouched” or “whole.” That’s about the way it is today. A man who has integrity is so morally sound that ha is not to bo touched—in a way tost will affect his honesty and uprightness. . Many labor-management disagreements would disappear, if we honestly would undertake to solve them with each side of the conference table keeping its integrity. If each party to an agreement keeps his word—tost is integrity. It used to be said of a neighbor I had: “His word is his bond.” That’s the kind of neigh-bor-this world needs. It will require integrity from each one of us, if this world is to become a better place. A Real LET ME illustrate— Evampie with a labor-manage-ment example. Less than a year ago, the General Motors “tost of living” wage agreement with United Automobile Workers was acclaimed as a solution to tike frequent wage battles that upset our industrial communities. Under terms of toe contract GM can raise or tower wages according to government statistics. As living costs rise or fall in reports of toe Bureau of Labor Statistics, the company can adjust wages accordingly. While the formula did not rule out wage increases for other reasons. It was an honest attempt to solve the cost-of-living problem. Last year under toe contract GM employees got a fiat deent

hourly raise, plus a “cost of living* increase of 5 cents. What are toe prospects this year? Employees are in line for an increase not related to living costs, but under the formula will get a pay cut Of 2 cents because the Bureau of Labor Statistics index of living costa has gone down. Moral THE EFFECT would Ttaess be to hold wages at about the same levels as last year. Employees still would have the advantage of the decline of living costs. However, according to a recent Associated Press dispatch, a GM local in Cleveland wants to reopen the contract, which has more than a year to run. This local of 2JOO workers wants UAW headquarters to block toe carrying out of the contract. According to the AP story the local’s president said that workers’ living conditions “ought to be of greater meaning than the sacredness of a contract.” Moral issues are involved when you talk about breaking contracts. As against a pay increase of two or three cents, a contract should have plenty of sacredness. What in involved is integrity. The contract was made in good faith. It has more than a year to run. If it does not meet the'needs of the UAW, the parties will have determined this by the tone for expiration. There are few human relationships that have greater meaning than do contracts. The courts of toe land expect contracts to be kept. Good neighbors are made by men who keep their word. This applies to groups as weU. Good citizenship requires integrity.
