A the Library . . Behind the desk, near the office door From the highest stack to the base

of the floor Is an alcove that lboasts in its

darkened nooks An enormous collection of "crafty"

books. And, if there is any doubt as to

the truth of this statement, we sug-gest that the people of *this busy town take time off to explore their library a bit — not just the quick "Is there a book on reserve for me?" approach, or an apologetic riddling to the mystery shelf (now highly respectable literature, ac-cording to Dr. Fuess). Why not take tile circuitous route around the desk and down the dark aisle, and see for yourself that there's a little of everything and a good deal of a few things there in the pleasurable field of crafts and hobbies.

The antiquers, or lovers of the odd and beautiful of yesteryear have found their way 'to these shelves. Here they have learned to unearth the black-bound wealth of information on exquisite glass and china and carved wood and fans and shawls and Bristol ware.

And those who are thrilled with the maze of blueprints and house plans are very familiar with this part of the room. The constant traf-fic of books such as "Houses for Budgeteers," "Tomorrow's House," "Planning Your Home for Better Living," and "Houses for Home-makers" leaves many a shelf with amazing vacancies, but that is as heart-warming a sight to a librarian as a neatly arranged preserve closet is to the homemaker.

If you are a gardener, you have touched the hem of this vicinity, for it's just a step or two to the north of your favorite stamping-ground.

Once there, who could stand and read the titles of two or three shelves and fail to marvel at the di-versity of things that will prevent boredom and will give a new zest to living?

As a test, we asked 10 wholesale houses that this concern pur-chases THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS of merchandise each year, whether we could get a small amount of SUGAR from them. The answer? "Sorry, you didn't, or haven't bought any SUGAR from us in the past three years; we haven't enough SUGAR for our REGULAR SUGAR CUSTOMERS, can't do anything for you."

Harry—Well, Ed, how goes it? Eddie—Pretty good, Harry. How

bad are things in your line? President—They're not good. Eddie—I gathered as much from

the papers. Lately every time I got to thinkin' that I had troubles, I just thought of you. I ain't felt so sorry for anybody since we sold that shirt with the short tail to the tallest man in town.

President—Believe me, Ed. I can use your sympathy.

Eddie—Being President ain't what it's cracked up to be, eh?

President—Not even close. Mind if I just sit down and look over the stock?

Eddie—I ain't got much stock. Harry . . . just a few hats and ties left after the holiday rush.

President (admiringly) — That's okay. Hats and ties look better to me now than when I was in busi-ness. It sort of comforts me to sit here surrounded by haberdash-ery.

Eddie—A hat shop ain't a bad place, Harry.

President—You're tellin' met Eddie—The nearest thing I ever

saw to a pressure group around here was once when three women came in to tell one man what kind of a necktie he ought to pick out.

—'— President—How long have I been

here, Ed? Eddie—About ten minutes. President—And not a demand

far for a special favor from any di rection! Mighty nice place this.

—*— Eddie — Well, always remember

I'd be glad to have you back with me in the store.

President—That's the nicest thing that's been said to me since I got into the White House.

Eddie—And I ain't lookin' for no post as an ambassador, either!

President — Ju- st imagine being back in the hat shop. . Just it. be able to sell a collar with no news reel men recording the deed for pos terity . . . to be able to dress th• front window without having it fui of newspaper men!

Eddie—Just to take a nap on tri counter without any fear you we' imperiling the future of civilizatio eh?

How Well. Has General Electric Met

These Objectives? HIGHER WAGES

LOWER FAIR PRICES I PROFITS

Here's how General Electric's increased production and ef-ficiency have affected G-E workers. Average hourly earnings for men, not includ-ing overtime pay, have gone up as follows:

1936 $ .73

1937 .81

1938 .87

1939 .86

1940 .85

1941 .89

1942 .96

1943 1.05

1944 1.09

1945 (Sept.) 1.09

Overtime pay gave G-E work-ers more on top of this. G.E. has made jobs for nearly three times as many. 61,781 worked for G.E. nine years ago.

In 1945 an average of 145,-000 had jobs at G.E. and at much higher pay.

G.E. has an obligation to a second group of people—the public. The public wants im-proved products at fair prices.

"More goods for more peo-ple at less cost"—G.E.'s goal —is not a part-time assign-ment. It is a job for manage-ment and worker alike if G.E. is to keep growing, keep rais-ing wages, keep making more jobs for more workers.

A few figures show typical price decreases:

Refrigerator 1935 $199.00 1941 129.95

Lamp 1935 .15 1945 .10

(PLUS TAX)

Transformer 1935 76.32 1941 69.30

Motor 1935 12.80 1941 8.50

Radio 1935 47.50 1941 27.95

G. E. during the war earned 4.70 on each dollar of sales. Of this, 4.10 was paid to its more than 200,000 stock-holders and the remaining six-tenths of a cent on each dol-lar was retained in the busi ness to assist in carrying on and expanding its operations.

All money earned over this 4.70 was turned back to the U. S. Government. G-E cost-saving methods had made war goods for less money than the Government expected.

These dividends have been declared per share of common stock since 1936:

1936 $1.50

1937 2.20

1938 .90

1939 1.40

1940 1.84

1941 1.75

1942 1.40

1943 1.40

1944 ....... ........ 1.40

1945 1.60

GENERAL ELECTRIC'S OBJECTIVE has been to keep prices moving downward, keep wages going up, and to earn a fair profit. This calls for volume production, more efficient work and methods. With the help of every single employee, General Electric believes it can show our country, as it did in wartime, an example of American enterprise at its best.

tinguished speaker will be on the program for the meeting to be held at the Andover Inn on Thursday evening. He is Frederick B.

Dinner will be served as usual at 6:15, and then Mr. Willis will speak on the subject, "Highlights of Legis-lation Passed in the Massachusetts General Court in 1945."

Mr. Willis was first sent to Bea-con Hill in 1936 as a representative of his district to the general court. He has been returned to this post in every succeeding election. He was appointed Republican floor leader of the House by Speaker Ru-dolph F. King in the 1943-44 session, and during the years has held many other important posts on various committees. His address should prove very interesting as well as educational.

American Legion Auxiliary—The regular meeting will be held Thurs. day evening at 8 o'clock in the Le-gion rooms.

Andover Grange—A covered dish supper was served at 7 o'clock in the Grange Hall, after which a regu-lar meeting was held.

ADJOURNED HEARING TO BE SATURDAY

An adjourned hearing will be held Saturday, afternoon at the town town house at 4:30 in connection with the proposed automobile build-ind to be erected in Shawsheen square. At that time plans and sketches will be presented to the appeal board.

A number of residents of the vil-lage were present at last Saturday's hearing, and several of them ex-pressed their views on the appear-ance of the building and hte public safety factor. The suggestion dealt with the possibility of having the

building set back, proposed entranc-es, etc.

The proposed building would be a one-story front on Main street with a basement having a Haver-hill street entrance.

NEW CANDIDATES ENTER ELECTIONS

Andover's political situation con-tinued to gain momentum this week with several new names tossed into the ring

There are now three possibilities for moderator. Rev. Frank E. Dunn, first to enter race, will be opposed by John F. O'Connell and very pos-sibly by attorney Arthur Sweeney, for whom papers have been taken out.

John M. Caldwell of North Main street has taken out papers for se-lectman, the other candidate being former selectman Howell Shepard.

For Board of Public Works, the incumbents, P. Leroy Wilson and William Marron, have to date one opponent, John Kelley of Holt road, well-known official at Tyer Rubber.

There has also been some talk of Victor Mill of 106 Elm, street enter-ing the race. He is connected with the Lawrence Machine and Pump corporation His son, Victor Mill, Jr., of 4 Cedar road, has taken out papers for school committee, though it is not definite whether for the two-year of three-year term. The senior Mr. Mill had not taken out papers at noon today, but there was a possibility he would.

Definitely out for the two-year term on the school board are Gor-don Colquhoun and George Connors. The incumbents, William A. Doh-erty, Dr. Malcolm B. McTernen and Rev. John Moses, are all trying for re-election to the three-year term.

Charles McCullom, recently ap. pointed to fill out the late Franklin Stacey's term on the Board of Health, is probably to be opposed by Benjamin Brown. Dr. Look is running for re-election to the three-year term.

Running for re-election to the Punchard trustees are Edmond E. Hammond, William A. Trow, Roy Hardy, Henry G. Tyer and Charles C. Kimball

Three vacancies for the library trustees may create a little contest. Attorney Walter E. Mondale is run-ning for the seven-year 'term, Wil-liam N. Perry for the one-year term, and Caroline P. Leavitt for the three-year term. There has been some talk of another candidate for the seven-year term.

Next Thursday, January 31, at 4:30 p. m. nominations will close.

Old Clothes Drive To Be Held Sunday

Once again humanitarian Ameri-cans are participating in a united effort to clothe the needy people of Europe, and once more Andover will share in the responsibility of this worthy cause.

The drive this year will be held on Sunday afternoon, January 27th, at one o'clock, and it is under the direction of the Andover Service Club. A fleet of trucks will tour the town to pick up the clothes, which should be left at the curb, or on the porch in case of rain.

The clothes shoulebe sorted into the following categories: shoes to be tied together in pairs; infants clothing up to three years; child-ren's clothing three to eight years; men's and boy's clothing nine years and older, and the same for women and girls. Bedding with usuable remnants and miscellaneous items Clothing in any of these groupEi should be tied to make it easy for the committee members and others in the final sorting which must be done.

Clothing may also be left at the following places: Shawsheen Motor Mart, Central Fire House, Central Post Office, or Ballardvale Post Of-fice.

The committee is as follows: Walter E. Mondale, chairman; Frank E. Dunn, Henry Hopper, Howell F. Shepard and Dr. Nath-aniel Stowers.

Your proposal to me in Washington last evening that the wage demand of the United Steelworkers of America-CIO be settled on the basis of a wage increase of 181/2 cents

an hour, retroactive to January 1, 1946, can-not, I regret to say, be accepted by the United States Steel Corporation for the reasons set

As you know, collective bargaining nego-tiations with the Union broke down at the White House yesterday afternoon, because Mr.. Murray then refused to budge from his position that a country-wide steel strike must take place, unless steel workers are granted a general wage increase of 191/4 cents an hour. Our offer of a wage increase of 15 cents an hour was again rejected by the Union.

The Union threatened to go ahead with its program for a national steel strike at mid- night next Surla.y. .1tIlauusgh such at strike

average straight-time pay to $1.29 an hour, placing such pay among the highest today in all of American industry.

Under our offer of a 15 cent increase, the average weekly take-home pay of our steel workers for a forty-hour week would amount to $51.60, assuming that no overtime is in-volved. This figure is only $4.54 less than the actual average weekly earnings of these employees, including overtime, in the last full war year of 1944, when the average work week was 41.6 hours.

tiS YOU ••-•-• ^+s.

almost L-11i011.s revised demand of a wage increase of 191,, cents an hour, which was advanced by Philip Murray, the President of the Union, at our collective bargaining conference with the Union in New York a week ago today. In our opinion, there is no just basis from any point of view for a wage increase to our steel workers of the large size you have pro-posed, which, if put into effect, is certain to result in great financial harm not only to this Corporation but also to users of steel in

general. As I have tried to make clear to you and

other Government officials during our con-ferences in Washington over the past few days, there is a limit in the extent to which the Union wage demands can be met by us. We reached that limit when we raised our offer to the Union last Friday from a wage increase of 121/) cents an hour to one of 15 cents an hour. This would constitute the highest single wage increase ever made by our steel-making subsidiaries. Our offer of 15 cents was equivalent to meeting 60',; of the Union's original excessive demand of a $2 a day general wage increase. Our offer met 75' ; of the Union's final proposal of a wage increase of 191/2 cents an hour. A wage increase of 15 cents an hour, such as we of-fered, would increase the direct labor costs of our manufacturing subsidiaries by ap-proximately $60,000,000 a year. That is a most substantial sum, and does not take into account the higher costs we shall have to pay for purchase-1 goods and services, when large wage increases generally become effective throughout American industry, as is inevi-table after a substantial increase in steel wages.

an hour. Our offer of a wage increase of lb cents an hour was again rejected by the Union.

The Union threatened to go ahead with its program for a national steel strike at mid- night next Sunday. although such a strike %mall .•••• g

til October 15, 1946. From the outset, we have recognized how

injurious a steel strike will be to reconver-sion and to the economy of this whole coun-try. Most industries are dependent upon a supply of steel for their continued opera-tions. We have done everything reasonably within our power to avert such a strike. If a strike occurs, the responsibility rests with the Union.

When the Government at the eleventh hour informed us about a week ago of its willingness to sanction an increase in steel ceiling prices, we at once resumed collective bargaining negotiations with the Union. Such price action by the Government was a recognition by it of the right of the steel in-dustry to receive price relief because of past heavy increases in costs, something which the steel industry for many months has un-successfully sought to establish with OPA.

I should like again to point out some per-tinent facts relative to the wages of our steel workers.

Since January, 1941, the average straight-time hourly pay, without overtime, of our steel workers has increased more than the 33 r;- increase in the cost of living during that period, recently computed by Govern-ment authorities. Steel workers' wages have kept pace with, increased living costs. Such average straight-time pay in our steel-pro-ducing subsidiaries was $1.14 an hour in each of the months of September, October, and November 1945, excluding any overtime pre-mium and any amount for correction of pos-sible wage inequities. An increase of 15 cents, in accordance with our offer, would raise such

voived. 1 nis ngure is only 4)41.04 less t Hall

the actual average weekly earnings of these employees, including overtime, in the last full war year of 1944, when the average work week was 41.6 hours. The difference is really less, because we will undoubtedly continua t—

wr r g e- gated more than $1,300,000. Such reduction of $4.54 in weekly take-home pay is the natural consequence of a shorter work week of forty hours, and therefore one of lower production.

Much as we desire to avoid a steel strike, we cannot overlook the effect both on this Corporation and on our customers and American business in general, of the 181/2 cent an hour wage increase, which you have proposed. Such a wage increase must result in higher prices for steel than have previously been proposed to us by the Government. Great financial harm would soon follow for all users of steel who would be obliged to pay higher prices for their steel, higher wages to their employees, and still have the prices for their own products subject to OPA control. Such a high and unjustified wage scale might well spell financial disaster for many of the smaller steel companies and for a large num-ber of steel fabricators and processors. The nation needs the output of these companies. Increased wages and increased prices which force companies out of business can only re-sult in irreparable damage to the American people.

In our judgment, it is distinctly in the public interest to take into account the in-jurious effect upon American industry of an unjustified wage increase in the steel indus-try.

After a full and careful consideration of your proposal, we have reached the conclu-sion above stated.

Respectfully yours,

BENJAMIN F. FAIRLESS, President. United States Steel Corporation

The UNO committee

Went through the other day

In busses, right up Main street

With police to clear the way.

And didn't it seem funny

To see so many faces Riding right through our town

From so many far-off places;

It makes the world seem nearer

From the Philippines to Rome

To have the UNO come here

Looking for a home.

We think Andover is beautiful, and we want to keep it

beautiful. We think Shawsheen village is one of the most beautiful parts of Andover.

A meeting was held last Saturday afternoon to discuss

a building which it is proposed to erect in the square. A num-

ber of Shawsheen village residents were there, and they in

general did not oppose the erection of a building, but they

did express their views on both the appearance of the building

and the public safety factor. They had a right to do that, and

those are certainly considerations which in the public interest

the owner of the lot should take into consideration.

They were reasonable, most of those residents of the vil-lage, and it is a little difficult to understand why the man

representing the owner should have repeatedly said: "If you

want something undesirable, you may get it if you drive us

too far. We don't want to do it, but you'll get it if you drive

us to it." We trust that this is not the owner's own view; we

trust he realizes that the people in the village are interested

in the village; and we feel perfectly sure that he'll be willing to adhere to any reasonable suggestions.

Bloom flushed, while other mem-bers of the rules committee grinned sheepishly, realizing they had been taken in.

Punchard to Meet Undefeated Exeter

Punchard will meet an undefeat-ed Exeter Saturday night at the Memorial Gymnasium at 7:30.

Exeter has won eight games this season, and Tuesday night defeated the then undefeated Somersworth Academy 58 to 21, thus taking the lead in the Southeastern league.

It looks like a probable victory for the strong Exeter team, which appears to be a more formidable ri-val than the Methuen team which defeated the Erunchard quintet last week.

Methuen Juniors The Junior High team remains

undefeated after beating Methuen 27 to 11 last Friday. The local team started out on the Methuen floor with a close zone defense. Some of the Junior High players were con-fused by the glass backboard. The high scorer was John Craig with 12 points, and following closely was Robert Deyermond. The outstand-ing player was Mike Muise, who played a very good game, although the whole team made an excellent showin.

The Junior High team played the Punchard J. V's Wednesday, and a return game with Methuen will be played on Friday.
