VIEWPOINTS
DON’T COMPARE CITRUS AND
KANGAROO FREIGHT RATES
From the Valley Morning Star, Harlingen:
There has been such a clamor for “equali-
zation” of freight rates for the South that
most of us have been convinced that this
area is the victim of outrageous discrimina-
tion in the matter of freight tariffs.
A number of bills are pending in Congress
proposing all sorts of radical departures in
the field of rate making including one meas-
- ure which would put all freight on a mileage
basis. This and other bills provide for such
a radical change from present rates that in-
stead of bringing about equalization they
* more than' likely would upset the economic
life of this country and bring about chaos.
Texas Citrus and Vegetable Growers and
Shippers, Inc., and similar other organiza-
tions have refrained from jumping at any
conclusions because freight rates are such a
complex thing that they require much study
even from traffic men of great experience.
Much of the clamor for changes has been
from men like Rep. Paul Kilday of San An-
tonio who told the newly organized five-
state Gulf Southwest Agricultural and In-
dustrial Conference in Dallas this week that
freight rates must be equalized before there
can be any industrialization of the South-
west.” •-
Kilday is not a traffic expert and it is in-
teresting to note that A. J. Ribe, employed
either as traffic manager or traffic consult-
ant by 65 shippers of raw materials, semi-
finished articles and manufactured goods—
all of them in the South and none of them

Fruits and vegetables, because of their

The Valley often has felt that it has been
discriminated against, in one way or another

Home fronters have heard a lot of stirring
appeals to their patriotism since the war be-
gan. Exhortations to buy bonds, save paper,
shun the black market and so on have been
pitched in a rather high emotional key. That
is the natural, proved approach, and the re-
suits have been pretty good.
But it hasn’t worked on everybody. Some
still refuse to interrupt their normal way
of life without complaint. For them we
should like to recommend a new approach.

WASHINGTON, May 10 - (P)-
Housewives apparently haven't felt
any urge --because of meat unra-
tioning—to buy out the butcher
shops.
The unrationing except on beef
steaks and roasts, went into effect
a week ago. 1
Now, after reports from all its
regional offices around the coun-
try, the War Food administration
says there has been no great buy*
ing rush. -
One reason given: before unra-
ttoning. meat points generally had
been low enough to allow most
families sufficient meat. Tills fore-
stalled a desire to splurge when
points were romoved.
But it seems likely that more
meat will be consumed now than
before it was point free. Able to
get unrationed meat as they want
it, housewives can spread red points
on the rationed kind.
OPA says the total anticipated
supply of meat for civilians in May
is 25 percent greater than a year
standard.
But when we asked WLB Chafe,
man William H Davis for a clarify-
ing opinion. He said the state-
ment—that the board consider! leu
than 50 cents substandard — was
"right to • sense" which will be
explained below. @
It was technically incorrect to say
wage Increases up to 50 cents hour-
ly could be granted without board
approval No approval is needed up
to 40 cents. From 40 to 50 cents
application must be made to Y
regional boards. Those boards have
been authorized by the national
board to grant such increases.
When there is a dispute, however,
the regional board settle the in-
crease from 40 to 50 cents accord-
ing to the prevailing wage rate a
the Job or industry in that area.
When he said the statement that
under 50 cents is substandard is
"right in a sense," Davis explained

“Two things can throw the pic-
ture out of focus:
1. Meat distribution had been
geared to a rationed supply. It takes
about four weeks for meat to move . ---------
from packing house tb neighbor- it was hoped that voluntary re-
hood butcher shop. Any large in-
creased buying to one city could
mean less meat generally for that
city until the distribution system
was able to cope with it.
This may be happening now to
some places although, as noted
above, according to WFA it is not
general.
2. If there was heavy demand to
the Mid-West, near the packing
plants, the areas most distant from
the plants might feel a pinch. For.
if prices were fairly equal around
the country, the packers could save
shipping expenses by selling closer
to home.
quests to raise wages to 50 cep s
would 'tend to bring the prevailing
rates" up to 50 cents.

It must be something new in Mr. Petrillo s

WASHINGTON-If all the post-
war planners were laid end to end
they would reach three times
around the moon with enough left
over to fill every hotel ballroom in
America. It has, to fact, become an
industry to itself and may help—if
it can be carried into the post-war
period—to take up the industrial
slack.
Exaggeration to one side, this is
a healthy thing. That is, It’s healthy
so long as the plans stay somewhere
near reality.
Too often post war planning goes
off into the stratosphere. Earnest
seekers after truth at three course
luncheons are given visions of a
sky spangled with pink and blue
plastic helicopters. If you're too
backward for the helicopter, you
can zip through the countryside to
a 100-mile an hour car shaped like
a rocket from Mars.
Another school of post-war plan-
ners paint a picture that is wholly
black. They see the country stag-
gering to ruin under the weight of
mass employment.
What is too often assumed in all
this talk of post-war planning is
that we have infinite time in which
to concoct a new heaven and a new
earth. Actually were sitting at the
moment in the unnatural stillness

public works, with unemployment.
Perhaps the mistake was to assume
the Baruch report would be an all-
inclusive pudding with at least one
raisin for everybody.
Now that the contract termination
bill is through the senate, the house
is expected to move fairly rapidly.
The author of the house bill. Con-
gressman Kefauver of Tennessee,
has attended all the senate hear-
ings on the subject and is now pre-
pared to use speed. —---

books in order and prepared to end
their war contracts- will get Imme-
diate termination and payment for
goods to process. But industries to
dubious shape with
commitments would be required to
submit to audit by the proper
agency. .
If all goes well, passage in the
house should come in two weeks
and then time will be required to
iron out differences between the
two measures. To postpone action
into the convention-campaign re-
cess would be risky indeed.
Two opposing dangers, it seems
to me. threaten the post-war plan-
re- ners. Those who believe it's possible
_ to return to the levels of 1939, are
: courting disaster. But those who be-
lieve Utopia can be conjured out of

We’re fighting for our liberty and
we shall still have a fight to pre-

Now that Army, Navy and the
petroleum administrator for war
have lifted the lid—a little—on
some of the secrets of wartime de-
velopment in production of 100
octane gasoline, it’s possible for re-
finery people to do a little predict-
ing on postwar uses of superfuels,
with a line on what they’ll do
to your shiny new postwar auto-
mobile.
While the military secrecy lid was
clamped on Ught, there were a lot
of rumors going around that they
were making “110 octane" and even
“125 octane gas.” That is branded
as a complete misnomer. There isn't
any such thing as 110 octance or
125 octane gas, because 100 octane
la perfect in the arbitrary scale
which the scientists set up to meas-
ure and designate the degree to
which a motor fuel would not knock.
Zero-octane gas will knock under
atty conditions; 100 octane gas
won't knock at all in the highest
compression motor new possible to
build Hundred. octane therefore
isn't a gasoline, strictly speaking,
but a blend of Ingredients which
will do certain things 100 percent
But, while refinery experts cant
make anything better than gaso-
line with a 100 octane rating, they
have been able to concoct mixtures
which wil cruise farther and climb
faster per gallon than the aviation
gasolines made at the beginning of
the war It hi from this fact that
the stories of new super-gasolines
got started. ____

It still isn’t permitted to tell just

generally accepted nomenclature or

tion for aviation specification gaso-

bers, such as 115-145. This means
a gasoline which will permit a plane
to cruise 15 percent farther and

There is still a dispute between gasoline than military flying, and
aviation experts as to the best type therefore they will be able to meet

There is, however, the catch that
it takes more crude oil to make

Fitting all this into the postwar
picture, refiners anticipate that
commercial flying will take less
all requirements for an extra high

it will give 25 percent greater
