Labor reform debate on government roles and union strength
Walter Lippman argues that family wages and union rights rose during wartime government action but declined when conditions returned to normal.

Warming Up Affects Muscle Sense And Heart Circulation
A discussion by Dr. Logan Clendening explains that warming up increases muscle sense accuracy and stabilizes nervous activity while boosting heart rate and blood circulation. Training enhances these effects, making sustained effort easier as the heart adapts. He notes golfers and tennis players feel steadier as games progress and the body optimizes blood flow. Editors urge readers to request six of his pamphlets for 10 cents each.
