Avoid Economic-
'Headache' After War .. .
THERE'S ALWAYS the morning after.
America along with the rest of the
world will experience an economic headache
when the present conflict ends. For whether
we realize it or not we are in the war to the
extent that we too will suffer its ill effects.
What particular effects the war will have
on our American cities was recently the topic
of discussion of the National Association of
Real Estate Boards convention in Philadelphia.
The general agreement was, that however much
business may be stimulated by defense spending
and other influences traceable to war, the end
of war is sure to bring unfavorable reaction.
Charles F. Palmer, Defense Housing Coordi-
nator for the National Defense Advisory Com-
mission, summarized the sentiment well:
"When this emergency is over," Palmer said,
"we are going to be faced with the letdown that
always follows a supreme defense effort. War
orders will cease. Men will return home from
camps loking for jobs. Communties in the neigh-
borhood of the big war industries will begin to
lose population. Unless the government is pre-
pared to take drastic action to sustain the
national prosperity, there will be a business col-
lapse."
THESE ARE NOT new words; they have been
spoken before. But it is an encouraging sign
that men of influence and ability are today re-
viewing the disastrous consequences of the last
World War. Palmer followed his predictions with
this constructive suggestion:
"Our cities certainly need rebuilding, and with
the dislocation of world trade which is sure to
continue for years after the peace, there comes
a golden opportunity.
"Housing and city building are all done with
an internal economy. We do not need to import
materials or labor. All are at hand and will be
crying for employment when men return to
normal pursuits of life. With proper legislation,
we can rebuild the rotten cores of our cities
and make such rebuilding pay its own way."
MR. PALMER is right when he says that men
"will be crying for employment," but hous-
ing isn't the only thing that is needed to main-
tain American prosperity. Americans need more
food, more clothing and more of an infinite
number of goods and services. One third of
Americans are admittedly ill-fed, ill-housed and
ill-clothed.
These are the eternal needs that go on when
bloodshed stops. Any permanent prosperity must
eventually be built upon them. If we hope to
escape economic collapse after the war we should
begin today to expand our latent economic ca
pacities to produce more butter as well as arms.
Food, clothing and decent homes are as necessary
as arms for any defense of America, and they are
the only antidote for the economic headache
that will plague us the "morning after" the war
ends.

THIrS IS by courtesy for your lost and found
notes, or more frankly, a little message to
brother rat. It concerns one Earl Gilman, ex-
associate editor on the Daily, now in the Law
School, and one gray overcoat, formerly the
property of Earl Gilman, and one extremely
cold spell in Ann Arbor, and one very cold boy
without enough dough to buy another overcoat
(he wouldn't want me to say that), and one
hope on my part that this may be read by
a thief with a conscience. Earl came in Thurs-
day night, looking a little cold, in fact very
cold, and said his overcoat had just been lifted
by someone about seven o'clock just outside the
Pendleton Library in the Union. He wasn't sore,
just puzzled, and wondering a little. It is so
very cold, a guy needs an overcoat, and the
thing won't pawn for much because it is not
a new coat. All Earl wants is the coat. If the
guy who promoted said coat happens to read
this, and if he can find in himself something
worth recapturing of his self-respect, Earl wishes
he would just check the coat in one of the
checkrooms and mail the tag to him at 408
Hamilton. It will make a lot of us feel a lot
more like Christmas is coming, maybe bring
back to us some of the innate goodness in all
men, if the overcoat comes back. Maybe I'm
a cheerful moron, maybe I don't understand
the things that ma'ke a man steal, but I honest-
to-God expect that coat to be returned. When
it does I'll tell you about it.
TOM HARMON is beginning to find out what*
it is to be really famous. After three years
of making nothing but friends, after three years
of nobody ever being able to say he was swell-
headed or a heel or anything of the sort gen-
erally dished out to prominent people, it must
be at least a minor sore spot to Harmon now
to see and hear himself being accused of hog-
ging the spotlight or having his name bandied
around by the beer garden moralists. The in-
evitable grapevine is hard to work. The nasty,
groundless little rumors are making the rounds.
Harmon is a name in the gossip columns now.
And from now on until another seven-day
wonder comes onto the scene, Harmon will just
have to keep still and take it.
Being a success breeds jealousy and hate in
people. Being a success is like being a school
teacher in a small town. You just damn well
hadn't read the wrong kind of books, or drink a
glass of beer, or do anything which contains the
seeds of a great spreading lie, because as sure
as you do the lie will grow, and before you know
it you will be on the skids. You make a kidding
remark, it goes out, circulates for two days, and
you see yourself tagged as swell-headed. Nos,
Harmon may be in a swell spot right now, but
in the next few months he's going to have plenty
of grief. I don't know him. I base my admira-
tion for him solely on the fact that amongst
all the football players, amongst all the people
who have been around him while he has been
here, I have never heard adnasty crack about
him. And if I haven't heard him downed here
in a newspaper office, he can't be downed, take
it from me. In this business we are not celebrity
conscious, we do not see many people whom we
like, because they all seem like space-grabbing,
publicity-loving stuffed shirts. We get even
with all such, nights after the paper has gone
to press and we sit around over a cup of coffee.
LETTERS
TO THE EDITOR
Whose Art Week?
For the past few days we have been enjoying
a display of artistic talent of the faculty of the
college of Archietecture and Design.. We have
noted with some degree of interest the efforts
of that illustrious body through the media of oil
and watercolor. However, we cannot help but re-
alize that the proportion of work actually done
by the students of art is really extremely low.
jNor have we had ample opportunities to ex-
amine our future painters' creations adequately
in past exhibits.
Why is Ann Arbor constantly made a theatre

for the performances of the painting faculty?
Surely students and townspeople alike would
appreciate "a change of scenery." We question
the judgment of the professor artists for dis-
playing their work instead of that of the sudents.
We have always considered it worthy to display,
appraise and criticize student work. Other arts
of the University are given more opportunities
for student presentations, but we certainly miss
our painters.
National Art Week should be a fine occasion in
a university town to present student as well
as professional work. How about it professors?

This Escaped
Chicago Censor . .
Censorship is not confined to Europe. You can
even find some of a kind in the Big Ten. That's
why we don't know much about Chicago's six
man football.
Every now and then, though, someone pops
up in the Daily Maroon that gives hint that
all is not well. As an example we print a letter
to the Maroon editor. It speaks for itself :
"Dear Editor: Six man football isn't what
they thought it would be. There are four teams
in the intramural league and they have played
each other so many times that they now call

The way I tell whether a man is small or big
is listening to the newspaper men who have
had contact with him. That Tom Harmon is
liked by the fourth estate, that in all the times
we have talked him over he has never been called
a heel, is good enough for me, and I think the
most sincere praise and at the same time reas-
surance Harmon can get.
* **
SO while I'm boosting people, I'll sign off with
the following quote from an article in the
current issue of Collier's on Martha Scott, local
girl who made good:
"The point is that they moved later to De-
troit, where Papa and Mama still live. From
there she eventually got to the University of
Michigan and fell into the hands of Valentine
B. Windt, an ex-Russian who had studied at
the Moscow Art Theatre, or at least had studied
the Stanislavsky method under Boleslavsky at
the American Laboratory Theatre in New York.
She gives Mr. Windt credit. Mr. Windt, she
says, made her an actress."
End quote. So long until soon.

(Editor's Note-The Brass Ring, good for
one free ride on The Washington Merry-
Go-Round, goes this week to Sidney Hillman,
labor leader and member of the National
Defense Advisory Commission.)
WASHINGTON- The inside story of the CIO
convention was the dramatic duel of wits be-
tween the greatest showman in organized labor
and the greatest strategist,
Each scored in keeping his character. John
L. Lewis, tle mop-haired consummate actor,
boomed triumphantly through all the oratorical
skirmishes and press headlines. Sidney Hillman,
the soft-spoken master tactician, won the bat-
tle for control.
During the first three days, Lewis held all
the trump cards-plus the, spotlight. Although
he had promised to resign, he was bent on re-
taining a firm grip on the CIO helm. To this
end he packed the committees with left-wing
henchmen and rigged the convention machinery
so that he was boss of the show.
WITH THE STAGE caretlhy set, Lewis set
out to provoke the Hillman-led Amalga-
mated Clothing and Textile Workers, the core
of the opposition, to bolt the convention. That
would have left the numerically stronger oppo-
sition helpless and barred the election of Phil
Murray, who refused to take the CIO presidency
unless assured of a free hand. With Murray out
of the way, the left-wingers could have either
"drafted" Lewis or elected a complaisant stooge.
This was the precarious situation when Hill-
man rushed to Atlantic City and took personal
command of the battle. Thursday afternoon, af-
ter a long night of conferring, he took the plat-
form. Hillman didn't make a speech. He is not
a stump spieler. He talked, in the same quiet
conversational tones he uses when seated at his
desk.
There were no fireworks and no histrionics, but
there was a lot of unanswerable logic.
Saved CIO From Split
WHEN HILLMAN finished, Lewis had lost the
battle. The opposition unions, which had
cowed with scorching rhetoric and the packed
committees took the offensive behind Hillmai.
The noisy but weak left wing caved in. Mur-
ray got the assurance he demanded and 24 hours
later, Lewis, crooning a tearful swan song, sur-
rendered the gavel.
The upset of John L. Lewis was not the only
feather in Hillman's cap. Equally great a triumph
was keeping the CIO from splitting wide open.
Certain Communist elements, operating on

the "rule or ruin" principle, were bent on split-
ting the CIO if balked from winning control.
That would have meant chaos in the labor move-
ment, the end of any hope for AFL-CIO peace,
and a smashing blow to the Roosevelt Adminis-
tration.
THE TRUE MEASURE of Hillman's strategic
mastery was that he tied the can to his op-
ponent in such a deft manner that Lewis fol-
lowers could not erupt. They would have done so
at the drop of the hat had Hillman given voice
to one word of personal feeling against Lewis.
But Hillman knew that a personal attack was
just what Lewis wanted, had tried for months
to provoke. And he has fought too many bat-
tles in his 24 years as a union leader to fall
into that kind of a trap. He suppressed his per-
sonal anger and kept fighting to the ground on
which Lewis couldn't win-that the CIO was big-
ger than any one man and all forces must unite
to preserve their common gains.
'The Compromiser'
A PET TAUNT of .Hillman's left-wing foes is
that he is a compromiser. They are right and
wrong. Hillman is a compromiser on ' details
but never on principles.
It was "compromises" such as the one at At-
lantic City which beat the unbeatable Lewis
that have won Hillman the dsesrved repuitatin
