Probably most of us do realize this. Yet gratitude and pride demand expression, gratitude fo rthe immense and devoted service the Red Cross renders, and pride in the ability of a great and humane people to unite, under the Red Cross, for a great and humane end Time was when men who went away to war were mourned as men lost from the realm of the living, men condemned to death or doomed to hopeless suffering. They were gone, they were written off, and their families languished, neglected and forgotten. That day s far past. As war has grown in fury and frightfulness the forces of compassion have found strength and means to answer its challenge and to plant the banner of mercy in the face of its cruelty. Today those forces go wherever the fighting man goes. They share his perils and ease his loneliness. And back home they stand by those he left behind him.

The nature and the effectiveness of this | ooperation can be judged from the exhibits mow on | at the first National Labor-Management Production Exposition in the Commerce Department | auditorium.

Millions of manhours have been saved in war plants by the know-how of intelligent gard to their special jobs. The show at the Commerce Department is a tri- bute to American labor and industry alike. Happily we have not yet become so completely submerged in mass production techniques as to leave no play for individual acument and initiative.

When| a newsman invades the sanctity of one of Doughton's closed-door’ meetings on tax legislation by dar- | ing to report anything that hap- pens, the reporter is usually flayed at the next closed-door session and an inquisition is undertaken to de- termine what member leaked.
