Tremendous quantities of electric power are used by busi- ness and industry in their efforts to serve the home, but it is probable that the home itself remains the greatest single con- sumer classification. Sales for ships and shoes and sealing wax have increased or decreased because the consuming public—the American fam- ily—could or could not use them to advantage. With this in mind it is worth noting that the most likely product for manufacture by the big new industry for which economists have been hoping is air-conditioning. The airplane obviously cannot do it because of competition from the auto- mobile, our last great industrial infant. But the air-conditioning field is entirely new. It has no competition and nearly every householder is a potential pur- chaser. Restaurants, theatres and stores where such equipment has been installed say they help business. In such cases they are almost universally successful. i Householders have been slower to adopt the innovation and their experience has not been altogether good, yet the in- dications are that the truly modern house of tomorrow will have such equipment and many other homes soon will be obtaining them. ; The field is tremendous and as the various air-conditioning machines are improved in design and reduced in price the de- mand will grow. . First purchasers, probably, will be persons afflicted with hay fever and those invalids who need special care. Next will come the average American family—and that is the biggest market in the world. We Know Him Now Recently this column made mention of the fact that The Tribune refuses to print anonymous letters and cited, by way of example, letters which had been written under the nom de plume of Rex V. King and a more recent missive signed “an agronomist.” Now another letter discloses that they are one and the same man—and was his funny bone tickled by that editorial. In a letter signed “Both Rex V. King and an agronomist” he outlines the reason why he doesn’t like to sign his letters, at the same time asserting that The Tribune editor probably could guess his identity. In that he was wrong—until Monday. Then a salient fact came to light and his identity was disclosed to a moral cer- tainty. But he shall continue to be anonymous. The Tribune has never disclosed the identity of any person writing letters for publication and who has been permitted to use a pseudonym. It shall not tell all it knows in this case. At the same time it serves new notice on the gentleman in question and all others that unsigned letters will go into the waste basket. Some other letters which were received have been returned to the signers with notice that, if they wish them published, they must permit publication of their names. Most of them are never heard from again. J The reason for their return, usually, is that a newspaper has no business pulling chestnuts out of the fire for anyone. The reason publication of the name of the author is not author- ized, presumably, is that the writer was attempting to achieve that very end. cre. origin publ IR are also Propaganda Antidote It begins to look as if the country is in for the biggest propaganda barrage since the World war. Never have the com- bined forces of radio, press, pamphlet, and inuendo gotten off to a better start than in the current presidential campaign. It, therefore, behooves the voter, says Dr. Clyde R. Miller of Columbia university, to look into a few of the tricks of the propagandist, lest he become helplessly entangled in a mesh of contentions. The best way to deal with propaganda, says the professor, is to subject it to searching criticism and analysis. Ask your- self, “Who holds the opinion, who utters it, and why?” If the opinion stands up under this examination, you may depend upon it as being pretty solid, for the critical processes always strip propaganda of prejudice and emotion. Which is something none of us ought to forget between now and November, Benefactors of Life Because two Harvard scientists have devoted the last five years to patient, unremitting research, the world now finds itself a step nearer escape from the scourge of influenza.

Green Worried Over Attitude of Roosevelt. By RODNEY DUTCHER (Tribune Washington Correspondent) Washington, July 28.—Both the American Federation of Labor execu- tive council and the Committee for Industrial Organization are convinced new that the split in the labor move- ment will be complete. Leaders of the craft unions can hardly afford to back down from their demand that the C. I. O. dissolve. To do so would be to admit defeat and jacknowledge supremacy of John L. Lewis in the labor movement. The C, I. O., meanwhile, has become convinced that there will be no com- promise. It expects the council to reconciled to that, although perhaps not eager. It will undertake to put all the onus for breaking the organized labor movement wide open upon the craft union chiefs dominating the coun- cil. Its own leaders are confident that new independent national labor organization will soon dominate the field and that the old A. F. of L. will disintegrate. xe OK Court Battle Likely No early overt moves by the Lewis group are to be expected, however, aside from its organization campaigns in mass production industries. If the council says its 12 unions are sus- pended, the C. I. O. is expected to insist that they are. not suspended, but still member unions in good standing. This phase of the struggle is likely to go into the courts. But in any event it seems certain there will be constant warfare from now on. Latest development is refusal of the C. I. O. group to appear before the council Aug. 3 to stand trial for “in- surrection.” This action was taken, its leaders say, after the council had Novel Feature of This Year’s Campaign failed to make any offer of com- the council. Each side has miscalculated on at least one important point since the council first ordered the C. I. O. to disband last January. * * * Surprise for C. I. 0. The C. I. O., for its part, didn’t be- lieve the council would start suspen- sion proceedings prior to the federa- tion’s annual convention next Janu- ary. It believed and still insists that the A.

If “suspension” comes now, the craft union heads undoubtedly will try to follow up by barring the dele- gates of the 12 unions through con- vention machinery which they will control. A two-third convention vote of ex- pulsion would then be easy to get.

He’s spending his vacation in the Rockies.” Claire smiled and held out her hand rather shakily. “How about my car, Mr. Steele?” He shook his head. “Pretty badly damaged. Front axle busted and a lot of minor casualties. Someone had closed the road with that log.” Claire turned startled eyes on Pat. “Closed the road! You mean the log was put there?” “Sure. Probably repairing or something. But Bob and I are on the loose, arid we'll be tickled to death to trundle you any place you want to go. Feel able to make it over to our car?” He helped her to her feet.

The interval may be length- ened to 3% or even four hours after the third month in and always the baby should sleep undisturbed for one stretch of six in the night. These rules apply as well to artificial feeding. The best way to tell whether the baby gets enough milk from the is by weighing the baby immediately before and again immediately nursing; unless the weight increases at least 6 ounces the breast feeding must be Supplemented with bottle feeding. Or when the baby has stopped nursing, if he eagerly accepts a bottle feeding, that indicates the nursing is insufficient. ‘An ideal way to supplement breast feeding that is insufficient is by hood-winking the baby. To do this, put the proper mixture in bottle with small rubber tube attached. Insert end of tube in corner of baby’s mouth along with the nipple, so that when the baby draws at the nipple he will get also a little milk from the bottle. By regular use of this plan a mother who is at first incapable of nursing may regain full capacity and discard the bottle altogether. While nursing, mother must not rock, jiggle or move the baby about. How would you like to be so handled while taking your dinner? She should either hold the baby in her arms as she sits in a comfortable chair, or lie down beside the baby. She may croon a soft lullaby as the baby drops off asleep, but it is bad policy to insist on special silence or other special provi- sions to favor sleeping.
