The protest was hardly ex- peetecl after scores of eitics in the United States had virtu- ally turned themselves inside out in an effort to be Selected as tlie permanent home of the world organization. But the people of Connecticut seem to have go0dreasons for their feelings. If the UNO were to move into the Stamford- Greenwich'are'a 'abdut 5,000 persons would haveto move and,the c0munities would lose the taxes on proper.ty 'valued at $i0 mililon.

THE FIRST STEP Isn't a sound nationa| labor policy... one that treats workers and manage- ment exactly alike and above all one that is fair to the public.., thc first step toward that peace? Sincerely be mwng thi to be so, we offer this program for peaco and pro- ductlon and prosperify: I. Make employers and unions equal in responsibility under the law. 2. Let Congress set the rules for genu- ine collective bargaining, free from coercion and violence, and tlxen let g0v- ernment enforce these rules with s/'Jet impartiality. 3. 'Pi'ovide safeguards for the pub!ie against strikes or b6;e6iis arMng fl"om disputes between unions. 4. Insure against strikes until all order. ly procedures for settling disputes havo been exhausted. Your representatives in Congress have the power to establish thls pattern for an enduring and a fair labor peace.

A-BOMB TOLL AT HIROSHIMA The single atomic bomb which exploded over Hiroshima last August 6 and blew Japan out of the war, caused 306,- 545 casualties according to Allied Headqmarters in Tokyo. ,Included in this total were 78,150 dead, 13,983 missing and 9,428 seriously injured. Nearly 177,000 persons were listed as "general sufferers" including lihose made ill by the blast, or' who suffered minor injuries, Or were deprived of food, clothing or dwellings. In spite of these appalling results, however, it is stid that there is too much "atomic bomb hysteria." According to Major Alexander P. De Seversky, aviation expert who examined the Hiroshima ruins, the atomic bomb used on that occasion would have done no more damage to the more sturdily constucted buildings of New York or Chicago than a 10-fen block buster. Such damage would have been insignificant as compared to Hiro- shitna. But he admits that future atomic bombs will be more powerful: This is good reason why the nations should agree now not to violently disagree in the future. BUILD FOR THE FUTURE Americalike the song about June is simply bustin' out all over. With hundreds of thousands of war veterahs returning rome, and with the birth raterising, a large pat Of the nation's ]40 million inhabitants have no place to go--not even a home to go to. While several million homes are needed right now t is estimated that hardly more than half a millon will be constructed in 1946. What is more, there may be a tendency r to undertake the consttuction Of many of these'h0mes l;ather hastily in order to obtain scarce materials neededf0r them. It wou!d be well, however, if those who expect to build did not rush into it too hurriedly. Ample time should be taken to think 0ut the home and to include in it'all the f'cillties for ,better livingwhich the qwner's purse will per- mit. There should be adequate iring to acc0rnmodate the mny electrical conveniences an.d gadgets which Willcone On th'e iiarket in plentiful quantities ;hen labor and'mater. ial con d:tions return to normal. The cost of electricity which the fiati01fs utilities Sul;ply is so 10w in these days 'that no 6e ahbuid forego'the comforts and pleasures it can briiig into the home through light, heat and refrigeration. Eiee- tricp0w,er is one item that 'has  gor/e down'rather thanup "l S ' " ..... ' n pite of the rising cost of living. . In the final analysis, America needs not 0nly "more homes. . but, ,better h0mes. . Unless. , we build well, egett. Rnder the,had:cap of present condffmns, we shall n0tbe meeting the'iong-rui housing need. This';ould mean quicker detei;- ioration of Our hOmes and more rapid obsolescence, So, let tis'build for the future as well as the present. REVAMP CONGRESS ? C0ngress hasn't overhauled its legislative machinery ince '1893.' And thi,ngs have.hanged "iulte a'bit', Since then. The boys onCapitol Hill are'trying to do busines in this dizzy, dynamic age with their old horse and 'buggy methodS. Qne of the biggest faults among the' many in the con- gressional procedure is that congressmen have too many things to do--at"the same time. For instance, a senator may b. a member of three or four important c6mmittees. It is not unusual for two of these committees to meet simul- tane0usly, During that hour an important debate may 15e taking place :in the Senate. As a -result, he' must either divid his'time among the three meetings and not be fullz informed on what is going on in any of them, or else he must Stick to one and ignore the oher& Neither arrange- ment is dhiFabie. Another, and more glaring weakness in Congress, is the seniority system which awards membership 0n the most important committees and assigns the chairmanship of committees solely on the basis of length of service. Under this method the elderly congressnen from the Southern'states who are rethrned to office tithe after time h01d the key positions. Some of thcse men are competenl and progressive, but some of them are not. system ,Of rotation Would give younger and some. times able mebei-s an 015portunity to serve in important posts and,it would'd0 much to rejuvenate many of he ,creaking committees. Congress alone can make changes in its legislative ma- zhffery. But in view of the antiquity of that machinery we think the question Should be put to the lawmakers: How about a thorough streamlining job--now?
