LABOR, COMMUNITY GOALS MSEPARABLE - TRUMAN Atlantic City.—In a message of greeting to the 60th annivers ary conference of the United Hebrew Trades, President Tru man declared that “the best in terests of labor and the good of community are inseparable.” The Chief Executive’s letter, which was made public by Ruben Guskin, president of the United Hebrew Trades and vice-president of the Associated Actors and Ar tistes of America, said: “Labor has made solid achieve ments during the years since the United Hebrew Trades was founded. The standard of living has been greatly increased. Wages have risen. Working con ditions have vastly improved. A substantial measure of job and old age security has been pro vided. “The debt the American econ omy and ' American industrial leadership owes to labor in these achievements is recognized and accclalmed.” The organization, representing an affiliated membership of 600, 000 trade unionists in New York City, presented a scroll of honor to the venerable, 88-year-old edi tor of the Jewish Daily Forward for his services to the United Hebrew Trades. In his concluding paragraph, President Truman wrote: “The organization has sound reason to feel proud of its con tributtons to the economy and to the improved position enjoyed by labor today. It has good reason, moreover, to look forward to greater gains in the future. Toward this end of greater se curity and happiness for worls ing men and women everywhere, I wish the United Hebrew Trades many more years of constructive activity.” KELSAY KILLED IN CRASH; HEADED METAL POLISHERS Indianapolis.—Ray Kelsay, 60 president of the Metal Polishers, Buffers and Platers International Union, was killed in an automo bile accident,' while driving here alone from a union meeting in South Bend, Ind.

The hostess tripped triumphantly into the tensely anticipative room bearing a heaping platter of gelatin des sert. As she placed it on the table, it quivered and shook. Most of the youngesters shouted with delight. But one, a pudgy tow headed boy, started to leave the table. “None of that stuff for me,” he announced ilrmly. “It ain’t dead yet.” FOREMOST PASTEURIZED MILE Fana Frcs* Milk—Faremoat Icc Cream Foremost Farms, Inc.
