NATIONAL MARITIME DAY When the Japs attacked Pearl Harbor and the fate of our Nation hung in the balance, the American people suddenly realized as never before the vital importance of the Merchant Marine. It was the merchant vessels that had to carry the men and supplies to bolster the defenses at Hawaii and to prepare for the Pacific offensive. It was the Merchant Marine that took millions of American boys and their millions of tons of equipment to all parts of the globe in the fight for freedom. Now the war is over. The military crisis is past. Most of the vast fleet of ships built in such frantic haste during the conflict are useless. They're too slow, too present proved reserves total nearly 21 billion barrels — almost a billion more than last year. Besides this, geologists believe there are 50 billion barrels not yet discovered and that an additional 90 billion barrels of oil could be extracted from the Rocky Mountain "shale" deposits. The concern about our oil reserves stems not only from its importance in warfare, but also, of course, from the fact that the United States with its highly mechanized agricultural, industrial and transportation systems is dependent upon oil for its very existence. Some idea of our degree of mechanization is seen in the fact that two out of every three motor vehicles in the world are in the United States. Our Nation moves on this occasion are not reported in the press but the impression made by the speaker soon comes known. Governor Warren is reported to have made a good impression. He has, therefore, increased his chances of getting the GOP nomination next year—if he really wants it. BETTER RELATIONS Now that the exchange of vices by President Truman and President Aleman of Mexico has been completed, relations between two countries have reached a high in cordiality and understanding. The present harmony is a cry from the situation that ended not so many years ago when the Mexican people felt—and without considerable justification—that Americans were interested in that country only for the exploitation of its resources. The exploitation in Mexico is a past. The Mexicans wouldn't sit for it any more and we've learned that that's not the way to good neighbor. Mexico now American capital however, President Aleman has made clear that it is welcome if "ing to observe the laws and satisfied with a fair profit." Land south of the Rio Grande tremendous economic possibility. We can aid in its proper development both to our advantage and to that of the Mexicans. On basis of equality and mutual respect Mexico and the U.S. States can cooperate and collaborate to each other's prosperity. SOME FAVORABLE FACTO The housing situation is good by any stretch of the i Now the war is over. The military crisis is past. Most of the vast fleet of ships built in such frantic haste during the conflict are useless. They're too slow, too costly to operate under peacetime competition. We must have new ships—faster and more efficient—to hold our own on the seven seas, to facilitate foreign trade, and to have a Merchant Marine capable of meeting any national emergency. This shipbuilding program will require Government subsidies, for under no other circumstances can American vessels, built and operated under the high-way standards of American labor, survive in the face of the low-wage-standard competition of foreign countries. Support for our Merchant Marine must also come from American manufacturers and distributors who should give first consideration to American vessels in transporting their goods overseas. Individual citizens can also help by traveling on American ships when going abroad. One of the principal purposes of National Maritime Day which falls in this week—May 22—is to call the attention of the American people to these facts and to remind them of the tremendous importance of maintaining a strong Merchant Marine as an instrument of peace and a weapon of war. PERENNIAL QUESTION Are America's oil reserves adequate? That question has been coming up in recent years with the regularity of Yellowstone's "Old Faithful." But despite the frequent discussions and the volumes written on it there is still wide disagreement as to the actual status of our oil reserves. Not long ago the Senate Oil Investigating Committee declared that we did not have enough oil to carry on another major war. On the other hand, the American Petroleum Institute estimates that supplies to bolster the defenses at Hawaii and to prepare for the Pacific offensive. It was the Merchant Marine that took millions of American boys and their millions of tons of equipment to all parts of the globe in the fight for freedom. Some idea of our degree of mechanization is seen in the fact that two out of every three motor vehicles in the world are in the United States. Our Nation moves largely by automobile and truck. Out here in the West this is especially true. In California, for instance, no less than 1800 communities depend entirely on motor vehicles for transportation. In intra-state freight transportation in California two out of every three tons move by commercial highway carriers. From this it is apparent that in the field of transportation alone the daily demand for oil and its products is enormous. Regardless of how large or how small we believe our reserves to be we must investigate and develop every source so that we shall always have an ample supply. WARREN'S HAT IN THE RING? When Governor Earl Warren accepted the invitation to speak at the recent Gridiron Club dinner in Washington, it convinced political observers that he will be a candidate for the 1948 GOP presidential nomination. They point out that few, if any, public officials would subject themselves to such an ordeal if they didn't expect to gain by it. The Gridiron audience is composed of the country's leading political writers, and politicians, and not a few of the individuals who contribute heavily to the financial support of campaigns. It is a highly critical audience, to say the least, and the man who speaks for the opposition (the President speaks for the Administration) is really on the spot. If he makes a good showing his political stock goes up sharply. But if he does not, as was the case with several candidates in recent years, he has little chance of recovering from the setback. In other words, a presidential aspirant takes his political life in his hands when he goes before the Gridiron Club. Speeches made satisfied with a fair profit." SOME FAVORABLE FACTORS The housing situation is good by any stretch of the imagination, but in the many glare reports about it the public apparently gained a view that is worse, in some respect than actual conditions. There seems to be a general pression, for example, that erans are forced to pay at $10,000 in order to get a loan. But statisticians have found less than 5 per cent of the pay that much. On the other hand, 42 per cent of them are being their homes for less than $1 million. These statistics throw a what more favorable light on situation. Another factor owing to brighter side concerns is which borrowers in California including veterans, are paying their home loans. The record this same banking institution serves more than 300 formeria communities, show that the present rate of payment average home loan will be off in four year's time. When one considers that period of repayment for loans usually extends over a period of 15 or 20 years the rate of mortgage liquidation nothing short of phenomenal. This bodes well for those families which are living their debt and are accusing a greater share of owners their homes will be much situated if there should be economic recession later on. Be more able to ride out the orary setback and thereby reduce its length and in size. On the whole, it appears even if all the people can't housing facilities they need who can are making every effort to protect their investment that's a wise thing to do.

But the present world situation is doubly so.

Of course, gun day in legislative halls is not an everyday occurrence. But one incident like this can counteract favorable impressions gained about over a long period of time.

Go to Church Sunday! QUIPS Continued on Page 1 Would disaster and chaos." In one portion of his philosophical document, Senator Bailey charged that labor leaders had supplanted collective bargaining and undertaken to substitute dictorial demands for it. He suggested that antitrust laws could be applied to monopolistic practices in labor relations just "as we can apply them to any relationship affecting commerce among the States." Among his labor recommendations were restoration of the injunction to prevent irreparable injury, a requirement that unions perform their contracts or be held liable in damages if collective bargaining were to be preserved, and settlement of labor controversies in courts of justice and not by boards, commissioners, or panels. "I could not support a considerable number of measures put forward by President Roosevelt because it was plain to me that they were unsound and the long-run consequence would be bad for the people. I voted against the Wagner Act. It was and is a plain piece of political class legislation. We now see its consequences. Purporting to avoid strikes, it is an inducement to strike. Proposing to free the workingmen, it has placed them under the power of labor bosses." Senator Bailey advocated freedom for both employers and workers. He said that there can be no right to prevent a man from working just because he does not belong to a union. This is not freedom, it is coercion. This warning comes from a patriotic American who was one of the most eloquent statesmen of his time with a reputation for clear thinking. When he spoke, the Senate Chamber was filled. He was the champion of individual freedom. He was the defender of States' rights against the encroachments of Federal power. He consistently upheld the integrity of the courts. He was an advocate of sound monetary policy. And he believed in and fought for a strong agriculture in a balanced economy. Realizing that the end was near, Josiah Bailey bequeathed to the people of his beloved State and Nation the benefit of his experience and observation in a lifetime of patriotic public service. 208 To Be Graduated In AUHS Class '47 Continued from Page 1 Mahoney, Dora Maldonada, *Ashford Marshall, Dortha Marshall, David Martinez, Donald Martinson, Louie Masciel, Robert Mayo, Melvyn Meckel, James Meyers, Beverley Meyer, Shirley Miller, Norma Moore, Ferol Morris.
