Mmetiinea flippantly, aoae times reckleaely. I In times past, when unions were getting roots down into the ground, public health was regarded as none of their concern. They wanted wages and decent conditions, so that they could raise their own personal and family health standards. But, as some crazy person has said, times change—and so do wants. There is too much realization now of the fact that conditions over which no one family can have control may affect the family health—or the health of a whole factory full of workers. Public health is today a most im portant thing. Every condition existing big city goes to help make the public hralth situation—the public health problem. Hats help make up a public health problem. So do sewers and the treat stent of their output. Or maybe it is the lack of sewers. In Washington, D.

It used to be thought, for example, that undulant fever was a tropical affliction. It comes, so the scientists say, from beef and dairy products. In cattle it is known as Bangs disease. Herds must be free from Bangs di sease—and dairy products must be pasteurized, for. the sake of public health. Fifty years ago nobody thought of that. But today the health, officer who didn't ought to be fired and generally would be. Labor can afford to be deeply con cerned with public health. As a mat ter of fact it cannot afford NOT to be concerned. Whatever else you may think of John L. Lewis, he did a great service when he put public health prominent ly into the picture of employment re lations. There are two vitally important sub divisions of the general health picture. One is what we know as industrial hygiene the other is mental hygiene. We are generally deficient in our concern in both these fields and in our methods therein. There are in this country more per sons mentally sick than there are per sons physically sick. Our mental hospitals are a disgrace, both in facilities and in capacities.

V.-Pres., 507 Lincoln, maybe that is what we are coining to. When it comes to industrial hygiene, or industrial health, we have a field in which again too little has been done. Unions have done much to im prove industrial health, but there is a point at which they must have high skills if more progress is to be made. The professional man must come into the picture.

One way in which labor can forward this business is through a deeper pene tration into and participation in the work of social agencies, which are far removed from the old and hated "wel fare" outfits.

Knox, 1008 Hughes St. Policy Board To Meet Richardson Sees Raise Due For Fire Fighters Cleveland.—Salaries of fire fighters must be increased to keep pace with increased living costs and to attract and retain in the service the men who have the technical skill and lead ership necessary to maintain efficient departments, George J. Richardson, secretary-treasurer of the Interna tional Fire Fighters (AFL) told the International Association of Fife Chiefs in session here. At the same time Mr. Richardson declared that shorter hours are com ing quickly "whether the chiefs, or even some fire fighters, want them." Job opportunities, he stressed, must be created for returning veterans. Many cities already have established the 48-hour week, he said. Green Urges Aid In Nebraska Fight Washington, D. C.—An urgent ap peal for whole-hearted assistance to the Nebraska State Federation of La bor was issued by AFL President Wil liam Green to all officers of AFL na tional and international unions to block a movement there for an anti union shop amendment. Enemies of organized labor, Mr. Green pointed out, have obtained about 101,000 signatures to a peti tion for the anti-union shop amend ment—50,000 more than are required. Only by a vigorous campaign, well supported, can this move be defeated, he said. The issue will be submitted to Nebraska voters in the November 11 lection. Mr. Green made clear that the AFL is contributing as much as it can, but that more funds will be required to defeat, amendment. the aoti-iabor i^SSSSS^SSSSS^^SS&SS!^XSS?S^ tx-*a .n VSiS^ "-,^.^-,^"r -vfg,^.f l"1 11 ,*\L* ***o"* Buy Your Coal BYNAME— Gold Bond Blue Bird Aetna Cavalier Miltrena Pocahontas LUMP EGG JR.

By Ruth Taylor "And he who gives a child a treat, makes joy bells ring in heaven's street." So wrote John Masefield. What of the starving children of Europe? Are we going to turn aside from the thought of little children without food, in annoyance at dis turbance of our own way of life? "Of course not, but—" I can see the indignant look I'd get if newspapers had television. Yet—the other day I Bat near two women in a restaurant. Just ordinary, average, every day women. They were indignant because they couldn't get what they wanted. (With their figures they shouldn't have had it anyway). They said this feeding Europe was" just nonsense, that so-and so's cousin had heard it from a friend's brother in-law that all this talk about famine was just a way to do honest Americans out of their just deserts. (I think they must have spelled it with a double "s"). That the food we sent was just resold in black markets and anyway the children didn't need it, and be sides the Europeans had gotten them selves into this mess, let them get out of it. And then next to me at breakfast was a man who was most huffy with the waitress when she didn't bring him more butter for his toast. "Per fectly ridiculous! All this nonsense about food shortage was just to make a profit for somebody. What would we get out of feeding Europe?" They were what I like to think of as Americans. Does it really mat ter what the nationality or creed of a starving child is Does it really mat ter what the rights and wrongs of the past are? Can we with our tradition, with our national principles—and with our resources—do less than help? No people can remain indifferent to the suffering of the innocents with out losing something of their own spiritual integrity. This famine emer gency is just what the words imply— a famine, an utter lack of food,—an emergency that does not allow of waiting or haggling over help. What is done must be done now before it is too late. Will you help the starving children of the world? Save and share that you may do your part to help the in nocents who cannot help themselves.
