Our Country Right or Wrong THOSE NEW CARS With the automotive industry getting back into production as rapidly as possible, there are all kinds of stories going around about what the new models will be like. Of course, the '45 and '46 models will be similar to the 1942 cars, since manufacturers don't want to take the time to retool for new designs, but from what we can learn, when they catch up a bit things really will be dif- ferent. It is claimed that some of the post-war cars will have plexiglass tops so that you can see in all directions except down, and as you go skittering down the highway you will feel exactly like a goldfish in a glass aquarium. Then, too, there is talk of automatic jacks for all wheels where, when you have a flat, all you have to do is press a button and the wheel .is jacked up; of 'course, should one of these jacks accidentally let down while you are driving it might throw the car into a tail- spin, but anyway, look at all the hard labor you'll save *in changing tires. Some cars will be equipped with air condi- tioning; others will have walkie-talkie .sets so tJhat a wife can call up her husband w1hei he's on the way home from the office and tell him to go back downtown and get a quarter's worth of (log biscuits for the pooch. Built- in refrigerators in connection with air-condi- tioning units working from hot exhaust gases are also contemplated, and tops that roll into the rear are promised. Engines in the rear, upholstery that will wash and tires that will run 50,000 miles are also in the cards'. These are only a few of the marvels being flaunted before the goggling eyes of would-be *car purchasers, and from all this it would ap- pear that the only thing lacking will be a combination convertible bathtub and toilet. HARD FACTS AND SOFT THINKING Soft thinking may be able to gloss over some unpleasant situations for a. time, but always, in the end, it's the hard facts of re- ality that mankind has to tace. President Tru- man realized this when, in those first jubilant moments following his announcement of Jap- anese surrender, he said: "We are faced with -the greatest task we have ever faced. The emergency today is as great as it was on December 7." The victory celebration is all over. The cold grey "morning after" facts are that we face the greatest economic crisis in our his- tory. Unemployment is mounting. It may reach 5,000,000 by the end of September. A reservoir of 8,000,000 unemployed has been predicted for next spring. Of course, it takes time for industry to re- convert from war back to peacetime opera- tions. When new products finally start to roll off great assembly lines it will make a difference. And when industry gets going "full blast," the unemployment problem is bound to shrink to nothingness. An important danger in the months aheac rests in the fact that industry will not pro- duce any more of its products than can be distributed. And there may be a serious short- age of paper and paperboard for boxes, car- tons, wadding, packaging and wrapping, with- out which there can be no adequate distribu- tion. In fact, estimated paper requirements call for more pulpwood than has ever been produced in this nation in any single peace- time year. Failure to produce this pulpwood could make our paper supply the bottleneckc" of re-employment. In a real sense it may be said that our na- tion's economic future depends in large part upon this and other pulpwood producing areas. If the St. Joe Paper Company mill is kept well-supplied with pulpwood, we will see no lack of employment here in Port St. Joe and the mill, if kept running at top speed as it has been, will be doing a- large part toward relieving the paper shortage. A 'state liquor monopoly in the midwest finds itself with enough brandy on hand to float a battleship, which would be an exhilar- ating experience for the barnacles.-Detroit News. __ _- The succulent oyster on the half-shell that departed in'May is now playing a return en- gagement.
