COMMON PROBLEMS
Agriculture and industry face many common problems to-
day. Of most immediate importance are OPA restrictions
which stifle industry and thus reduce the demand for farm
products.
Second, labor organizations, by obtaining special privi-
leges for themselves, have in equal degree depressed the posi-
tion of every other segment of the economy.
Third, farmers are proverbially thrifty and have a major
stake in the stability of our nation’s money. Yet profligate
government spending on the one hand and discredited fiscal
policy on the other are undermining the savings of each per-
son in the United States who has had the brains and the char-
acter to try to build up our country by improving his indivi-
dual position. ! ■ ' I
Fourth, the so-calledcheap money” policy of the Govern-
ment and the irresponsible manner in which Federal deficits
are regarded can only result in ultimate financial disaster, at
which time manufacturers cannot sell goods and accordingly
cannot hire men whose wages then buy farm products.
The American economy is not compartmentalized. The
prosperity of industry and of agriculture is so intertwined that
it is inseparable. i
America’s farmers and its manufacturers should stand
shoulder to shoulder in winning back tlieir liberties, in pro-
ducing that flow of farm and industrial products which will
prevent inflation, and in making America the great and free
country which it can and should become.

For price control—Jack Carson, star of his own CBS
Wednesday night show, and his program "girl friend” Yyola
Vonn, illustrate the dangers of inflation. One egg selling for
$1.50 in Manila shocks our radio cut-ups and they cast
their ballot for OPA’s price control. P. S. "I didn’t lay
the egg,” says Jack.

health officer, thousands of sus-
ceptible persons would be pro-
tected from disabling illnesses,
according to the State Health
Officer.
To quote Dr. Geo. W. Cox,
“The old fashioned theory that
it is a good thing for children
to have a number of the catch-
ing diseases and get them over
with, has long since been known
to be a serious and sometime
fatal error. The longer a child
can keep from having these
diseases, the better it is for him.
Every child should be completely
protected by vaccination or in-
oculation against these diseases
where an immunity can be pro-
duced.”
Prompt diagnosis, isolation,
good medical and nursing care
give the patient the best chance
for a satisfactory recovery with-
out the serious complications that
sometimes accompany even the
mild forms of communicable dis-
eases. Dr. Cox emphasized that
obeying the public health laws
regarding isolation and quaran-
tine of communicable diseases
protects not only the patient, hut
helps prevent others from con-
tracting the illness.
“The State Health Depart-
ment,” Dr. Cox said, “is doing
everything in its power to pro-
tect the health of the people of
Texas. It is the duty of every
man and woman to do his share
to maintain a high level of health
