Trenton, N j. ILNS). = "The

An American embargo on German
imports to show our opposition to Hit
ler's ruthless Czechoslovakian policy
has been asked by the American
League for Peace and Democracy, an
organization with strong communist
guidance
Apparently the league wants to
draw US into the European mess.
That would in all probability be the
effect of the proposed embargo.
The league was formerly known as
the American League Against War
and Fascism. For reasons of policy
it's name was changed.
Why not another change, to make
it the American League for War and
Communism?
That would be more in keeping with
its character.
Plain fact of the matter is that the
communists and their puppet organ
izations do not oppose war when it
works for the advantage of Soviet
Russia.
They do not want war between
the democracies, but they are per-
fectly willing to have the de-
mocracies make war if they fight
FOR Russia AGAINST Germany.
Part of their worldwide strategy
now is to line up the democratic ma
tions against Germany in what they
regard as the inevitable clash between
the Reich and Russia.
"The main aim of the communist
party now is to defend Russia's in
ternational position" says one OBJ
server, who adds:
'In SO doing it is seeking as many
friends as possible by playing down
extremist measures and it's ultimate
program, and by advocating as many
specific reform measures as possible
which others favor"
The ultimate program" of course
is dictatorship and terrorist rule, as
in Communist Russia.
Building industry is reported about
to put $4,000 house on the market.
House can be paid for at rate of $50
month, it is said, putting it within
the reach of the man with a 81 200
annual income.
This would tap a new market for
houses.

80 Putronize Hamilton Industries @s
ORGANIZED LABOR AND THEIR FRIENDS

Nothing is said about the effect of
the house on building employment.
If much of the house is factory
built, as seems likely, it will not give
jobs to many building workers per
house.
If the new house should be success
full in opening up a big and hitherto
largely untouched market, it might
increase total building employment.
Plans for the house are part of a
fast-changing world, in which only
time can tell the effect of the changes
on the workers.
Small boys hanging on the rear of
street cars and automobiles are much
like non-union men riding along at the
expense of union men.
The union scale fixes the rate for
all in many an industry. The non
union man is nothing but a hitch
hiRer, riding on union gasoline at the
expense of those who keep unions 60
ing, paying dues and attending meet
ings-and going on strike when nec-
essary.
There goes the non-union worker,
hitch-hiking his way along to higher
wages, better working conditions and
shorter hours, free to desert and run
away when any effort is required to
maintain the benefits he gets.
