GRADUATION 1947 About this time of the year millions of young Americans prepare to graduate from school and step out "into the world." Some of them are anxious for the change but many others approach it with apprehension. To this latter group business life appears austere and somewhat mysterious. To them it seems so complete in itself, so independent that they may be inclined to feel that their talents are not needed and that opportunities for suitable work and advancement are few. But they should not forget that the graduates of today are the leaders of tomorrow. Business executives are always on the lookout for alert and intelligent young people to join their companies. Of course, regardless of what line a graduate may enter—we refer particularly to the college man—he should not expect a top rung of the ladder and works his way up. He can be sure that if he has the stuff he'll get that top spot in due time, and he'll be better fitted for it and more likely to hold it when he gets there. Probably the most important thing for the graduate to do—if he has not already done it—is to find out what field he is best suited for. Then he should get into that field—even if he has to start at rock bottom—and put all his energy into it. If he's qualified for the work, likes it, and gives it all he's got, his success is virtually assured. TRUMAN AND THE LABOR BILL One day quite soon (possibly by the time this reaches print) President Truman will find on his desk a labor bill that may be too strong a dish for his political taste. This may cause him to send it back to the congressional kitch- But they should not forget that the graduates of today are the leaders of tomorrow. Business executives are always on the lookout for alert and intelligent young people to join their companies. Of course, regardless of what line a graduate may enter—we refer particularly to the college man—he should not expect a top position at the start. Even though he has special training for the work and feels that he is qualified to handle an executive post it will usually be to his own advantage, as well as that of his employer's, if he starts on a lower TRUMAN AND THE LABOR BILL One day quite soon (possibly by the time this reaches print) President Truman will find on his desk a labor bill that may be too strong a dish for his political taste. This may cause him to send it back to the congressional kitchen as to unpalatable to accept. If he does this he will win the cheers of labor bosses who have been fighting it for all they are worth. But, at the same time, he will incur the wrath of the great majority of the American people—including no small segment of the rank and file of labor itself—who have long been demanding adequate laws to curb certain union chiefs. Their wrath will be intensified if Congress is unable to override his veto. On the other hand, if he signs the measure labor leaders will remember it in 1948 when he runs for re-election. And it is generally agreed that the President must have the support of labor if he hopes to succeed himself. Of course, there is considerable doubt about the extent to which labor leaders are able to influence workers in voting. There is also the fact that labor chiefs are not likely to back the GOP candidate under any circumstances. But what they might do in retaliation is to withhold active support and, in a close fight, that might be the difference between victory and defeat. If, however, Mr. Truman is as smart a politician as he is supposed to be he will consider the labor bill on its merits and act accordingly. In the long run that's the best political strategy.

Jones will serve a term that will expire at the annual convention which will be held about November 1 this year. Serving as chairman of the rabbit department of the Orange County Farm Bureau as a representative on the board of directors of the county organization, E. J. Jones has become a well-known figure in the rabbit industry, according to information from the county Farm Bureau.

He has personally contributed plants worth hundreds of dollars to the 4-H Club members. Orange County Farm Bureau was the second county Farm Bureau in California to establish a rabbit department. Los Angeles has the first such chapter. The growers point to the fact that California is by far the leading producer of meat rabbits and that, although there are not many large units of production, the aggregate number of rabbits sold on the markets amounts to several million in California each year. Production in Orange county alone last year was estimated to have been 333,000 rabbit fryers and 8,500 producing does.
