TOP O’ THE MORNING
Four things, I think, make life worth
while:
To love—to hope—to help—to smuel
Proper Procedure Prevails
There were two issues at stake in
the long-drawn-out dispute over the
purchase of fire alarm boxes. The first
was settled when the specifications
were broadened to permit any company
to bid. The second was disposed of
at the Council meeting on Wednesday
when the low bid was approved. In
both instances it was Mayor Lane’s
vote that broke a tie in the Council.
The Star holds no brief for either
of the manufacturing companies of
fering bids. But it is gratified that the
proper procedure, that is open bidding,
was successful. Wilmington taxpayers .
also will be grateful, as the box ac
cepted represents a saving of at least
$25 per box—no inconsiderable amount
taken off their tax bills.
There is further reason to be pleas
. i Jll. it.. IimaI m In
cu YY llil vvwi*wi d ****** |
that the contract will be performed by
a Wilmington firm with the payroll
going to Wilmington workers.
As for City Electrician Garren’s
resignation, when the company he
favored lost the contract, it can only
be said that if he plays favorites there
can be no regret at his going.
It is too bad he quit as he did, be
cause he has given excellent service,
particularly in synchronizing the city's
traffic lights, which were in a sad
state before his arrival, and by taking
a broader vieiy of his position there is
no reason to think his record would
not continue above par. But there are
other men equally capable and avail
able. His departure need cause the
city no loss.
The Real Losers
Although General Motors workers
gained a wage increase of eighteen and
one-half cents an hour, they are the
chief losers by striking.
To be sure, auto production in Gen
eral Motors plants has been long in
terrupted, but it is'in much better posi
tion to stand the cost of idleness than
the men, many of whose families have
been reduced to actual want.
It will be years before the workers
make up their sacrifice in pay from the
additional wages they are to receive
I UUUVi. HIV liVIT OXXailgCUlCllti
Their experience ought to convince
them that whatever relief they gain
by walking off the job is transitory,
and that the blame rests- squarely upon
the shoulders of their leaders.

Pauley Withdrawn
Washington prophets who fore
cast that Edwin W. Pauley’s nomina
tion for undersecretary of the Navy
would be withdrawn by midweek
knew whereof they spoke.
Thus ends one of the most trouble
some cases faced by the administra
tion since the war’s end.
If the nominee had been properly
considerate of the President he would
* *
have stepped aside long ago, Instead
of continuing to embarrass Mr. Tru
man>
While the President says he with
drew the nomination regretfully, it
must be as great a relief to him as to
the senate and the bulk of the Ameri
can people to have Pauley out of the
picture.
School For Veterans
The problem of education has been
a difficult one for veterans home from
military service, especially the younger
group whose high school training was
interrupted by the draft or voluntary
enlistment. They have found it partic
ularly difficult to sit in classes with
younger boys who, besides the differ
on^o in a (TP nrdinarilv lack the vefaron’.
war-acquired power of concentration.
Although there are twenty-five vet
erans in New Hanover High school,
catching up on the education they miss
ed while in the armed services, it is
conceivable they are secretly dissatis
fied with conditions, probably most dis
satisfied with the slow progress of
regular high school routine. Naturally,
they are impatient to get through with
school training so that they may take
their position in the business world or
advance to college.
Recognizing the situation and ever
alert to give greater and broader ser
vice, the New Hanover County High
school, with the green light from the
Veterans’ Administration and North
Carolina education authorities, the
school is to institute on April 1 a special
four-year high school course for vet
terans in which ex-servicemen may at
tend classes exclusively their own and
move from grade to grade as their
work and the proof of their progress
is demonstrated by adequate examina
tion.
Classes will be held in the afternoon
and evening, after regular high school
pupils have gone home. By arrange
ment with the Veterans’ Administra
tion, enrollees will receive the regular
government allowance. If the veteran
completes the high school course in two
terms and has the necessary credits,
le may attend college or university of
lifi rliniV.fl fnr fwn m/M*A area■**« 4-V.sx
same financial assistance set up in the
SI Bill of Rights.
Special courses will be given for boys
ntending to take up some professions
>r, as the case may be, commercial or
vocational careers.
Since the County Administration
turned down the proposal for a junior
college, this arrangement at the high
school becomes an efficient substitute.
Wilmington and New Hanover county
veterans will have the advantage of
attending school, offering many junior
college advantages, at home.
Electric Rate Cut
Wilmington has long hoped for re
duction in the rates of electric power
and progressive citizens had put forth
such strenuous effort for them for
some time without avail, that yester
day’s announcement by the Tide Water
company of a lowering of cost to con
sumers, both domestic and commercial,
comes as pleasantly and surprisingly
as a Christmas present from an un
expected source.
The saving will amount to $108,000
a year. The individual share in this
will depend upon the consumer.
An interesting and noteworthy as
pect of the announcement is that the
-uu applies not only to Wilming
tomans on and after April 1, but by
the first of next year will be extended
to the company’s transmission area, far
beyond Wilmington’s new boundaries.
Rural territory served by the com
pany will benefit. And what helps the
back country helps Wilmington,
THIS, TOO, WILL PASS

By WESTBROOK PEGLER
(Copyright, 1946 by King Features Syndicate)
With a peculiar satisfaction I have watched
the growth of Jimmy Petrillo, the president
cf the Musicians’ Union, from the size of a
local eccentric, or character, around Chicago
to that of a high-octane menace to the sacred
heritage bequeathed us by the embattled farm
ers of Bunker Hill and the chilblained heroes
of Valley Forge. ,
I have talked shop with Jimmy many s the
time and realize that he is constantly amazed,
and amused, like me, that a little Chicago
guttersnipe, just on native cunning and nerve
by the accidental surge of a socio-political
wave and without reasoned intent on his own
part should become the subject of a. personal
bill of restraint in the Congress of the U.S.A.
and one of the most fearsome figures of our
time. j. .
When 1 speak of James as an old time gut
tersnipe I use the term merely as the most
■appropriate description tnat i imow. was,
a downtown and West Side newsboy in the
gas light and horse truck days, closer to the
frontier than we realized in our childish famil
iarity with gambling rooms and flops and bar
rel houses, and * guttersnipe hopped many a
street car to sell enough sheets for a cent
apiece and a profit -of one-third to amass a
nickel’s worth of take-home. The streets in the
brutal winters were dirty with cold, deep slop
when they weren’t up to your brisket in snow
and the odds against a boy of Jimmy’s social
and economic level becoming a power in the
land with or without resort to the machine
gun were something fabulous, his old man be
ing a white wing at something like $15 a week.
James has told me that he qualified for a
card in the Chicago Federation of Musicians
because he had learned to blow a trumpet in
a newsboys band, which I earnestly disbelieve.
It is unimportant, however, for to hold that a
boss unioneer should be able to pass an exami
nation in the craft of his organization would
be to depose the ruling dictators over about
half our union membership.
Will Green, the president of the A. F. of L.,
for example, was a miner by trade way back
in his youth but was ejected from the mine
workers by his old president, John Lewis,
when John formed the C.I.O. and broke away
from the A. F. of L. but a union president and,
especially the president of the Federation of
Labor, surely must hold a member’s card In
some union, so our Jimmy Fetrlllo gave Green
a ticket in the musician’s racket on the pre
text that old Will at some time in his life
had been heard to strike some chords on a
parlor organ. Phil Murray, now president of
the C. I. O., was, like Green, a coal digger
in his boyhood and also was cast out of the
mine workers by his old friend, John. So Phil
became a member of the Steel Workers Un
ion, whose trade he was a stranger to. And
somewhat among my old snake-rattles, sou
venir badges, birdeggs and speakeasy cards
I treasure a writ of membership in an old
time Union of Steam-Boat Men, so, as I say,
we need not believe that James could plunk,
scrape or blow a note.
Our James would like you to believe that
he is one of those who "made it the hard
wav’’ but most men who go on in that vein
are braggart faker* who had it very easy as
Jimmy did. He was a natural born peddler
who could act the foci to a judicious extent
and close a deal with a shrewd laugh and
by this trait he wiggled his way into the soft
racket of Chicago’s local politics which blank
ets both the nether and the upper worlds.
At one point, if you take his word for it, he
was borrowed for a spell by lawless persons
unknown, and his union, of which he had taken
strong command by this time, had to spend
$50,000 to get him back. There were those
who thought $90,000 a flagrant violation of the
ceiling and some would have let him go at
any price, reasoning that if they couldn’t get
another like him their luck could be worse
but the matter was not put to a> formal
referendum.
They bailed Jimmy out, never knowing who
got the money, and for appreciation, James
let them buy him a $50,000 home on which, of
a sudden, the dirty, low-down Internal Reve
nue clipped him for $26,000 on the pround
that the value represented income and was
taxable as such. This ruling seriously impugn
ed Jimmy’s method of acquiring the house
from his loyal subjects and strongly suggested
coercion or a rigged resolution and vote be
cause if it had been a genuine gift it would
have been non-taxable. But James has a high
capacity for disdain so he spurned the foul
implication and paid the tax.
A few years ago, our James, having clipped
the Chicago tax-payers for the cultural boon
of public concerts paid for out of taxes and
received as wages by his people, invaded New
York, a very audacious foray, I assure you,
tossed out old Joe Webber, the aged national
president, and took over the job himself. Soon
afterward he changed lawyers, hiring the in
effable Joe Padway, whose knowledge of the
union law and the tricks of demagogues ifc ex
ceeded only by his gall and it has been since
these two combined that Jimmy has been
recognized as a really impressive menace.
But neither individual nor the two of them
in concert constitutes a real menace. The real
menance is found in the laws. under which
they operate with perfect security and statu
tory right. Congress gave .them these privi
leges, predatory as the rights of the robber
barons of old, and Congress, alone, can re
vise and restrict them. Jimmy just happened
along with his impudence and nerve plus Pad
way’s enormous effrontery in time to take his
tide at the flood and now he is soaring high
with Padway steering his surf board.
The act recently passed by the House and
Senate to curb Jimmy’s union alone and ig
nore the fundamental evils of ™ broader la
bor laws is one of pathetic cowardice mis
taken for bravado. Congress singled out one
wave in a hammering surf and of course,
the fourflush. will bo former -rWJnmny and
Joe will enjoy tneir Yu " “
Congress finally shall fmd the court ge to
make a real law. I cam"l J f e that day

MUCH ADO ABOUT AN END __
And well there might be much ado about this
end. The above picture shows reporters gathered
around Federal Conciliator James F. Dewey as
he announced that settlement of the General Mot
ors strike had been agreed upon.
The strike was the longest and costliest on
record. Agreement between the company and the
CIO United Automobile Workers union was reach

4one of scores of sessions that have been held dur

There’s A Lady In Show Business Here
Wh o Does The Work Of Couple Of Met
By JOHN SIKES
Sime Silverman is a gent 1
should like to have taiown.
There are probably only a few
of you around here who knew him.
Most of you probably never even
heard of him. But he was the long
time editor of Variety, sometime
called the Bible of the Show Busi
ness. It was Sime who filled the
show business language with so
many colorful and picturesque
words. His paper, Variety, was
widely read by people in and out
of show business because of the
many new and fresh words that
Sime coined.
Well; * you probably wonder
what’s my idea in bringing up
show business here. The days of
vaudeville hereabouts have just
about passed. Only ever so often
is there what is known as a “road
show” at one of the local theatres.
It’s probably been a long time
since one of the companies of the
so-called legitimate theatre has
played here.
The reason is this: A day or so
ago I received a letter from
Charles H. West who, after mak
ing with a compliment which
made me blush prettily, went on
to say:
“I enclose herewith a clipping
from Billboard which might give
you a subject for your column
some day. The lady in question
is our next door neighbor, and
posts bills for the local theatres.
. , . Anything pertaining to the
show world is always good copy
to the average reader, so if you
care to you might use it.”
. Mr. West, he tells me in his
letter incidentally, is a forme:
newspaper man. With his letter h(
sends along a page from Bill
board.
Now, I started talking abou'
Sime Silverman and Variety. Bu
there are plenty of those who’l
tell you—and right quickly, too—
that Billboard is the real Bible ol
the show world. Billboard has a
service that probably is unique,
just in case you haven’t heard
about it.
It’s this way: If you are in show
business you’ll travel a lot, ah
over the world. Therefore, you’ll
go to so many places nobody’11
ever know where to address you.
But you certainly want to hear
from the folks back home while
you’re doing all this traveling.
Well, all you have to do is regis
ter your name with Billbqard. I
think its address is Cincinnati.
Then your folks just write you in
care of Billboard and wherever
you might happen to be Billboard
will see that you get. the mail..
But about this clipping from
Billboard and this neighbor of Mr.
West.
I’ll just give you herewith the
whole thing.
Here’s the heading:
"Handle No Object,
She Flips a Neat
Brush on any Loc”
And the stbry:
"WILMINGTON, N. C. — Ad
vance men on the various tented
attractions to play here this year
have lifted a proverbial eye in sur
prise and later emitted a smile of
approval after discovering that the
bo£s of the local daub plant is a
WOMAN, Mrs. Pearl Littleton, who
■ took over the duties upon the r<
tirement of her husband about fiv
years ago.
“Mrs. Littleton does weekl
posting for the four theatres her
in addition to assisting travelin
attractions to locate spots. As on
advance man said recently: ‘Sh
can throw up just as much pape
in as fast a time as any othe
billposter I’ve ever seen. She rea]
ly knows her stuff.’
"Mr. Littleton established th
business about 12 years ago, bu
was forced by illness to retire.’
You catch that snappy way thi
show people, even in their papers
have of talking?
All. of which leads me to thi
aside that I have the idea that i
newspapers, the regular ones
would snap a little more out o
the traditional way of telling thi
news the readers would be a lo
more interesting.
Anyway, I’m happy to lean
about Mrs. Littleton, Mr. West
And when I get around to it, I’l
delve more closely into the shov
business and see what we can dij
up.
Incidentally, only a year or tw<
ago a carnival press agent prom
ised me what would be, I am sure
the most enjoyable vacation
could take.
He told me I could join up witl
the carnival he represented an<
“play” the various towns on thi
circuit. I’m still hoping he’ll ge
back around.
Imagine going around with thi
lions.
Not to mention, of course, thi
bearded lady.

THE GREAT ALLEGIANCE
"Patriotism is not enough," said
Edith Cavell at her martyrdom.
Itiese troubled times invite us to
consider the inadequacy of many
Df our old goals and standards of
life.
Prosperity is not enough: the
sages of the ages have declared
that happiness may not be found
in wealth. Money is a frail reed
upon which to learn.
Health is not enough, for real
living is a spiritual experience.
Worldly pleasures are not
snough; they do not last through.
Well does the Good Book desrriVie
the pleasures of sin as “for a sea
son.”
Only in one supreme allegiance
is there found adequacy for two
worlds. A poet, L. M. Watt, has
beautifully expressed the truth:
“I bind my heart this tide
To the Galilean’s side,
To the wounds of Calvary,
To the Christ who died for me.
“I bind my soul this day
To the brother far away,
And the brother near at hand.
In this town, and in this land.
“I bind my heart in thrall
To the God, the Lord of all,
To the God, the poor man’s Friend
And the Christ whom He did send.
“I bind myself to peace,
To make strife and envy cease:
God, knit Thou sure the cord
Of my thraUdom to my Lord.”
/ r
Thou art our Lord and King, O
God; and to Thee we pledge the
full devotion of our lives. Amen.

Problems

WASHINGTON, March 15—(N
—Veterans interested in guar
anteed loans have sent in the fol
lowing questions:
Q—Is it possible to get the total
cost of a house financed by the
government?
A—Yes. With a combination
FHA loan and a veteran loan you
can do it, in some cases.
Q—I am interested in getting a
government loan undef the GI
Bill of Rights. I was told by the
local office of Veterans’ Adminis
tration that I could get a loan
only for 15 years and at 20 per
cent of my salary. I understand
that I can get a loan for 20 years.
Which is right?
A— unaer me latest in um
you can get a loan to buy a home
up to 50 per cent of $4,000 guaran
teed for 25 years. Your salary has
nothing to do with the size of the
loan you get, except that a lender
usually wants to be pretty sure
you are able to pay back the
money you borrow.
Q—My son was in the Army
three years. I want to know if
he can borrow $2,500 to buy a
house and lot. They tell me he
has to have $2,500 in the bank be
fore he can borrow that much. If
he had that much in the bank he
woudn’t need to borrow at all.
what about this?
A—There is nothing in the law
which says a veteran has to have
any money in the bank to get a
C4n bo"ow up to $4,000,
