DISTILLERS UPSET Although it ia improbable that the current session of Congress will act on Senator Capper's bill to baa liquor advertisements from periodicals dis tributed by the United States postal system, distillers have indicated more than usual concern over the public hearings which have beon conducted in Washington on the proposed legis lation. Distorted pictures on liquor con sumption have been given the public by elaborate advertising schedules, the most famous of which is the "men of distinction" series. Tlie com panies have also emphasized the large amount of taxes they pay to support local, stats and national govern ments. Nothing has bean said in the advertisements about the huge num bers of unfortunate, "undistinguish ed mfen" who are liquor addicts and who might have peen distinguished or the staggering sums expended by governments for law enforcement the maintenance of institutions whose clientele is chiefly from users of strong drink. The Enterprise sincerely hopes the Capper bill will be passed. Having adopted a policy of not accepting li quor advertisements. The Enterprise is more or less on the side-lines and will not be directly affected by the outcome of the proposed legislation, other than having a genuine interest in theswelfare of the country and s fervent desire to have a part in curb ing the mounting crime wave. The powers of advertising are too strong and forceful to be used for such purposes as increasing the use of liquor. . ; . WALLACE BAND-WAGON While it ia generally conceded that Henry A. Wallace stands little or no chance of gaining the presidency via the third party route, political ob servers throughout the country have professed astonishment at the huge crowds which have thronged to hear him on his current, lecture tour. In some cities he has attracted more listeners who paid admission fees? in some instances, tickets were as high as |6?than presidential candi dates drew in campaign yean. "This country believes in the right of free speech and its people have be come accustomed to hearing both sides of issues debated openly. Since there has been little pnblic criticism of President Truman's foreign policy, it seems probable that the crowds Wallace is drawing are attending primarily to hear him air his oppo sition. Furthermore, it seems likely that these people do not agree with Wallace and remain convinced, after his lecture, that President Truman's firm staild is the right one.

What the parochial schools (main: Catholics but to some Protectant) whar they keep tO ! that the granting of a special privi lege must not carry in its wake the subsidising of it. ' Let me put it this way: Schools exist in a democracy in order to de velop its civic ideals, to transmit its cultural "heritage, to mingle young sters of every race and religion i that they can live together. When public funds are used, they are used for these lanpssss Any religious group that wants to secede from the public school system can do so?at its It can, if it wishes, develop not se cular civic ideas, but supernatural. It can, if it wishes, transmit not the whole Western cultural heritage, but a small section of it devoted to cer tain "absolute truths." It can, if it wishes, refuse to contaminate its children by am tact with the commun ity's ideas. But if a church makes this choice it must stand by it. It can scarcely expect that the community will not only allow the ? secession to take place, but underwrite it with public money. That is not a demand for equality for the minority, but of suicide for the community Itself. . . . I sympathise with the plight of the parochial schools. They need more money, just aa every school does. /Un der rising coats, they find it hard to compete with the publicly supported nonsectarian schools. They would like to shift the burden of cost to the community as a whole. But if they do, it will mean that all of us are supporting the schools of a particular religious group. It would mean that we are supporting "an establishment-of religion." And nothing in the Constitution is clear er or wiser than that "Congress shall make no law respecting an establish ment of religion." .... American teachers and schools and kids need help today. If the paro chial schools cannot maintain their present burden, their children are al ways welcome in the public school system. It would be tragic if the in sistence of one church group, how ever powerful politically, were to prevent a Federal aid bill from be ing passed. irS VACATION TIME (Christian Science Monitor) Americans will dig into their vaca tion pockets this year to the amount | of $16,000,000,000. So the travel industry now esti mates as it prepares to receive the first impact of what will be the big gest vacation spending spree in the history of the United States. That more people are traveling more places and spending more money this year than ever before is primarily due to three basic rea sons: ' - 1. There are mord accommodations | available and better services. 2. The air, bus, and rail lines have more equipment, faster schedules, and. frequent service to the Nation's top resort areas. ' 3. New automobiles, while not in abundance, are becoming available to more families. Resort, hotel, and transportation companies axe back in the tourist on as keen a competitive as has existed in many, many years. Ail during the war, the Na tion's resorts actually didn't need to advertise. They had more business than they could accommodate. This year it is different. People are "shopping" carefully for their vacation wares. * They are going to spend considerably more money and are going . to be certain it is , South America, and' aj countries tourist dollar. Theyl [ campaigns designed to to their respective; ? .'v j. > ? I try, both here and ! la going all his i FARM LOANS N.J. will receive in return better values. Hie #15,000,000,000 expenditure for -travel by Ameri&Uis thie year is a sound investment. A vacation trip brings freshness of outlook, gives wholesome fun and recreation in ad dition to a better understanding" of the various peoples encountered in 'diverse sections of the world. LABOR MARKET SHOWS S|GNS OF SETTLING DOWN I All indications point to to a set tling down and increasing stabiliza tion of the labor market in North Carolina, according to a report is-1 sued by Henry E. .Kendall, chairman of the Employment Securities Com-! mission. . - .. "Employment Security offices throughout the- State report a con tinued tightening-up of labor mar ket whleh, on the whole, is benefi cial," said Chairman Kendall. "Em ployers are showing increased selec tivity in hiring workers and there is less turnover in employment as work ers find suitable jobs and stick to them." The long-promised, long-de layed reconversion appears to be at hand, according to employment trends noticed in recent months. Kendall stated that increased se lectivity on the part of employers is reflected in a slight drop in job place ments made by the local' offices. From 9018 in March, job placements dropped to 8849 in April. "On the other hand^* add Chairman Kendall) "we see a rise in counseling" pter views from 1864 in March to 1841 in April. Employment comparatively hew service offered by the Employment Security Commis sion, is an aid to worker, or the one placed^ in securing the work best suited to his ability, skills and apti tudes. The fact that workers are using this service and are attempt ing to find suitable, permanent jobs rather than shifting from one job to another in hit or miss fashion adds much to increased stability of. the la bor market picture." The feet that March, which nor mally shows an increase in employ ment of .19 per cent above average, saw approximately 4,000 workers separated from their jobs in mass layoffs is not alarming, according to Chairman Kendall. "There can be nothing even and smooth about a naton's changing front war condi tions to peace conditions," stated Mr. Kendall. "There will, of course, be certain bulges and upsets as some plants in North Carolina, dependent on orders from industries of nation al scope which are located outside the state, and which, in turn, are dependent upon other industries to supply vital parts of their products, temporarily suspend production until the orders start coming in again. But on the whole,, onr reports show-that a very healthy stabilizing trend is be ing noted throughout the state." ci.-. ? -? ?????-" -i'MM' .. ?" 'frT^i^ra.
