Rabaut Supports 

Statehood Bills 

I Rep. Louis C. Rabaut (D., 

• Mich.) in a statement released 

recently endorsed action by the 

House of Representatives on bills 

enabling the present territories 

of Alaska and Hawaii to join the 

Federal Uhion of States. 

Reports favoring statehood for 

these two territories have been 

before this Congress since March 

10, 1949. The statehood move. 

ment began in Hawaii in 1903 

and in Alaska in 1912 and has 

been repeatedly endorsed by 

popular referendum and memorials 

by the territorial legislatures. 

In his statement Rep. Rabaut 

I said. "The strength and security 

I 

of Alaska today is most 'vital to 

our national defense. It has been 

called our nation's 'Achilles heel.'

leaders since the day of General 

Billy Mitchell. 

"Aside from the question of 

military security," Rep. Rabaut 

continued. "the rights of patriotic

remembering 

"The same urgency prevails 

I with regard to Hawaii," Rabaut 

said. "As early as 1937 .a Congressional 

Committee reported 

that Hawaii had fulfilled every 

requirement for statehood ever 

exacted of territories. If we went 

to demonstrate our strong belief 

in Democracy and Ir.aintain our 

leadership in the Pacific, Hawaii 

must be admitted." 

"Let us hope," Rep. Rabaut 

concluded, "that quick' Congressional 

action will pave the way 

for the addition of two new stars 

to our constellation of states."

Entered as second-class matter at the post office, 'Detroit,

The Park Contest 

Coal 

The cloud of anxiety that has overlaid the country wi~h 

increasing weight in recent days as the Nation's vanished 

coal supply came nearer, was happily, lifted with the news 

Friday night that the miners and operators h~d reached 

an agreement for ending the strike. 

All of the weighty implications, immediate ot\. remote, 

associated with the settlement of .the strike were instantly 

waived in the glad knowledge that wheels would move and 

lights would burn and homes be warmed. - 

At this writing many of the details of the settlement 

await clarification but it was early announced that for the 

miners there would be an increase in daily wages of 70 cents, 

raising their pay to $14.75. Lewis had demanded $15. They 

also get 10c a ton increase in the industry's payments into 

the Union's Welfare and Retirement Fund, bringing this 

item to 30c a ton. Lewis had asked a !5" per ton increase. 

For the operators there was elimination _ofthe "willing~ 

and:'able-to-work" clause under which Lewis had been able 

to call a strike at any time the whim struck him. The "Memorial 

period" has also been limited to five days a year. It 

had been a common. practice of Lewis' to order work stoppages 

for longer periods than this for memorials to mine 

disaster victims. 

The public's immediate conClern will be answered by 

continuing light, heat and power, but it must be reconciled 

to the fact that they will quickly have to pay more for coal. 

This presents to the industry the task of retaining markets 

for a commodity already falling in demand and which 

will be made more acute by the inevitable shift to other 

sources of heat and power. Here in our own metropolitan 

area the recent marked shift from coal to natural gas will be 

greatly accelerated and this will happen, all over the country 

wherever natural gas is .available through pipe lines. The 

change to oil will be possible anywhere for tank cars and 

trucks cover the entire nation, 

In the long term of years, however, the outlook for bituminous 

coal is not discouraging. It still exists in such vast 

deposits that its deplefion can only be foreseell many, many 

generations hence. It is unlikely that all of the bituminous 

coal mined since the beginning of the mining industry in 

America amounts to ten per cent of the original deposits. 

This is a vast reservoir of power which we are apt to overlook 

when speculating on the harrowing tales of the early 

exhaustion\of oil and gas as periodically dished up to us in 

the Sunday supplements. 

The same cannot be said for anthracite coal which has 

long been a diminishing factor in industrial production and 

today is practically limited to house heating, and that almost 

wholly in the northeastern section of the country. 

A hurried view of the coal reserves of the country shows 

that about 288,000 square miles of the nation is unde:r:laid 

with bituminous, while the anthracite deposits were limited 

to only agout 472 square miles. The bituminous acreage is 

600 times greater than that of anthracite. 

Probably many generation's before the exhaustion of the 

bituminous fields is threatened those limitless sources of 

power latent in the sun's rays, the ocean's tides and the force 

of the winds will have been harnessed. The possibilities of 

atomic power are scarcely explored. 

Whether or not, for the present period, the settlement 

of the coal strike spells -merely another milestcme on the road 

to complete gove~en! ownership and operation of the coal 

industry with the mevItable loss charged to everybody via 

taxation. t.he not far distant future will disclose.

The So¥jet~Curtain 

The maintenance of the Iron Curtain by the Communists 

is,a tacit ackriowledgment of the inadequacy of their social 

and economic system to contribute to' human welfare. 

If, after. thirty years' trial they had dev~loped a social 

and economic system directly benefl.cial to their, own people, 

they ;would be proud to have this fact ,known and would 

encourage the¥,eest mtercourse with the outside world for 

first hand inspection and discussion. If they have the proof 

of the advantages of COmnlunism as an agency for human 

welfare they would make every effort to advertise that fact. 

On the contr,ary they have built around themselves as 

impenetrable a wall as possible against information coming 

into or leaving their countrIes. 

They forbid their own people access to information about 

the free world and only send ?ut such abolft themselves a~ is

Tne result of Russia's action and attitudes is building up

Vi'siting Owls 

Chief of Police Tom Trombly 

of Grosse Pointe City has receiveda 

letter from.L.A. Danse, 

chairman of Conservation of the 

Detroit Audubon Society, which 

has been inspired by the appearance 

of the Snowy Owls in our 

latitude this year and the disposition 

of many persons to kill these 

beautiful creatures. 

Mr. Danse, who is presumably 

an authority on the subject, comes 

strongly to the defense of these 

arctic visitors. He says that instead 

of being destroyers of our 

bird life, as many suppose, they 

prey on mice and rats and other 

small vermin whose destruction 

man seeks. 

In their native habitat these 

owls feed on lemmings and it is 

the absence' of these in the arctic 

this year that has forced them 

down into the lower latitudes to 

seek food. He says that only 

rarely do the Snowy Owls kill 

small birds, wildfowl or domestic 

fowl. 

His purpose in writing the 

Chief was to ask his cooperation

One of the wee small hours disc jockeys with a cultured, 

drawing-room voice, re,called to us the' other morning, the fact that 

the professor told us we'd always hear the best English on the radio 

He said, quite clearly, "I hope Miss Soandso is listening ••• and 

will know TO WHO this song is dedicated." Amen! 

While we were listening to him, there sneaked up on us one 

of those brigh! (toobright) early morning kiddie programs, where 

the narrator strains his conversation through prop laughter that 

wouldn't fool a baby wearing three cornered pants. This hearty 

comedian (?) sells Freitage's Frunchies or a reasonable fascimile 

thereof, and his bus}ness is to make the kiddi~s b~w~beat their 

mothers into buying the product. The "lure" this week is a pencil 

that writes in four different colors at the same time, To get it, one 

merely sends in a box top from Frunchies. 

What he tells the kids goes something like this: Just think of it 

boys and girls ... a pencil that will write in FOUR COLORS AT 

ONCE! Think how pleased and surprised your teacher would be if 

you signed your name to your homework with this beautiful. rainbow 

pencil! NOW ... all you have to do etc. etc. etc, 

Well, we don't know about the teachers of today but we do 

know how a teacher of yesteryear would have loved us to sign our 

name with a four-colored pencil, She would no doubt take that nice

in a fresh white nylon jabot. The frock comes' in navy or
