WAR AGAINST
SOVIET RUSSIA
lUroviIIe MercurY-Register)


The allies, Britain and France, prac-
ticaliy have gone to war against Russia.
They have announced that they will give
Finland all the moral and material aid
possible without weakening their opposi-
tion to Germany. That may mean troops.
airplanes and ships. 1t doubtless includes
food And why not? The time for dodg-
ing the obvious has passed and obviously
Russia is as great menace to European
status quo as Germany.
Imagine the conversation between
Prime Minister Chamberlain and Pre-
mier Daadier before the decision was
reached They weigh results of such an
announcement against the results if no
steps to aid Finland are taken. In the
decision may rest the fate of all Europe.
If they decide to abandon Finland,
will not all the Balkan states and parti-
cularly Turkey decide to abandon the
Allies? VIII not the friends of Britain
in India be weakened? Will not the other
Scandinavian states, Norway, Sweden and
Denmark, be thrown into Germany'S
grasp?
What will happen if they decide to
help Finland? Will Russian troops be
used against the Allies in the west? No,
1or 1eTiiidiy uoesH Ndllt huSSidn troops
on her soil, Will Russia be any more ac-
tive in her support of Germany? Hardly.
Russia wants money for what she gives
Germany.
Finally, it is time to serve notice on
Russia that she can't get away with any
more seizures without real opposition.
The German people themselves will APP
plaud such stand if they ever find out
about it,
SO the step is taken that practically
draws Russia into the war and that may
some day result in expulsion of Russia
from Poland 1t is one of the wars ma
ior events.

THE GREATEST OVERSIGHT
ON CHRISTMAS DAY

Christmas in Imperial Valley this Year
was better than ever before, if final re-
ports are to be believed More families
participated in more festivities, public
and private. More gifts were given, more
trees wGre put up, more lights were
lighted.
Yet how many families remembered
that gifts are given on Christmas because
He said, ut is more blessed to give than
to receive" and that lights are lighted
on Christmas in memory of the light
that shone above Bethlehem on the night
He was born?
To how many families on Christmas
did the memory come that they were eel
ebrating not the arrival of mythical
figure called Santa Claus but the birth
day of very real person loved and hon.
ored throughout the world as Jesus
Christ?
Christmas is time of Joy because it
celebrates again the arrival in this world
of the Christ Child the memory of his
birth should never die, especially on that
Holy Day.

HEMBEK
WAS DEATH THE
GIFT YOU GAVE!

Did you give some youngster death for
Christmas?
A lot of people did, in Imperial Valley
and elsewhere.
How?
Next time you drive through the resi-
dence sections, keep your eyes open. No
tlce all the shiny new bicycles, all the
slick new roller skates, all the other
wheeled gadgets.
There rides death.
But it is not unqualified death. 1t is
not certain, nor unavoidable 1t is not
even eXcusabe. If it strikes, it is the
fault of the adults, not the fault of the
children.
Not for one instant would we want
TO take the new bicycles, nor the roller
skates, nor the other gadgetS away from
the youngsters. They've got to learn
some day to travel on the streets. to look
out for themselves, to steer clear Of dan
ger. Their bikes are mighty good vehi-
cles to learn on. They are healthful,
useful and pleasant gifts. Sometimes
they are even necessities.
If you gave your boy or girl bicycle
on Christmas, the chances are you could
mt have given anything else half as use
ful, nor to bring a third as much pleas
ure.
Dub hiN Ntd lcl IL ~ dl Jildt. plu YOU
forget that You were giving the young
ster not merely gift, but a responsibility
as we'll? Or did YOU do what You could
to help him realize the responsibility?
Too many parents invite death into
their families by handing over the BIZ
cycle, then washing their hands of the
matter. 1t is their fault if, some day,
a stranger comes carrying the limp. body
of their child back to them, the life crush
ed out of it by an automobile the little
fellow didn't see, OF the bones twisted
and broken by truck he didn't notice.
One measure of safety, learned at the
parental knee, is worth a gallon of tears
shed after it is too late. One good bit of
discipline, administered for infraction of
safe driving rules, is worth all the grief
in the world over the grave of loved
one.
If YOU gave a bicycle for Christmas,
make sure you did not give death as we'll.
Do it today; tomorrow may be too late.

Persistent rumors relating to the
deficiency in the numbers of skilled
workmen available to step into in
dustrial openings eliminated recent
ly in the report issued by the Unit
ed States Chamber of Commerce.
The Chamber started out to make
a survey of the effectiveness of
state employment services. 1t con-
Guided that employment services
were operating as efficiently as pos
sible. But it also discovered that
there is something to the reports
of a skilled labor shortage.
Particularly acute, according to
the report, are conditions in the
metal and building trades industries
The Chamber also concluded that
the shortages appear to be most
noticeable in the east and middle
west.
What alarmed the. Chamber parti-
cularly was the fact that the aver
age age of skilled workers in the
building trades was As; in the metal
trades, AZ. IF this is true, they ask,
what will happen in a1other few
years? From where can industry
expect to get its new workers, train
ed in their trades?
Breakdown of the apprentice Sys-
tenn and restrictions of vocational
training in schools as a result of the
depression are blamed by the Cham
Der as being responsible for the
present lack of skilled workers. The
report also speculated on the effects
work-relief programs may have had
on skill. In many cases, it was
said, employers are hesitant to ac-
cept men who have been on relief
projects for the past several years
because they have lost the skills of
their trades.

Willis Thorntons Editorial on:
Shortage Of Skilled Workers in u. S.?

The report OF the Chamber OF
Commerce has not been calmly &C
cepted No sooner had the figures
been published than the c. I. o.
countercd with a vigorous refutation
of any and all arguments that skilled
labor was nowhere to be had. On
the contrary, said John L. Lewis
union, the labor market is glutted
with all kinds of skill and the prob
lem is. as always, a shortage OF
jobs.
The, c. I. o. set the unemploy-
ment figure at 9500.000 with $780,
900 registered at the U. S. Employ
ment Service offices. In addition.
according to c.. I. O. figures, more
than a million WPA workers are
available for private industry.
Despite present conditions in the
ranks of the skilled, the fact that a
future shortage is impending cannot
be overlooked. Apprentice systems
were hit during the depression for
the valid reason that it seemed
futile to train new men for jobs
which didn't exist: and because ap-
prentices would have been used to
take over the duties of trained
workmen. II is also true that voca-
tional training programs suffered
in the schools because of shortage
of funds.
There are about 100000 young
people out of work. 1t is believed
very few are trained for industry
Many have had university educa-
tions to fit them for business and
the professions, most of the Others
have received no training at all.
With the average age of the skilled
worker getting higher, the shortage
of skill may soon become too evident
for anyone to deny

TRUTH VS.. PROPAGANDA
Riverside PreSS)

Not long ago our citizens were worried
about European propaganda in South
America. They feared their sister repub-
lies would be won to naziism. fascism and
communism.
That anxiety has lessened considerably
as we have observed the growing desire
here to understand Latin-AmericanS bet
ter and similar warmth of interest on
their part toward us. Now we are told
they are tired of the venomous, biased and
misleading broadcasts which Europe
directs at them. German and Russian
deeds speak louder than their words.
Our own newspapers and our radio
broadcasts have helped to show up the
falsity of the foreign propaganda. Be-
cause of our freedom of speech and press
and the accuracy and moderation of our
expert news gathering organizations We
have been able to give them more truth
than they have had from any other
source.
That fact together with the genuinely
friendly note appearing i'll other mutual
contacts, has been the most wholesome
sort of counter-propaganda spreading
ideas of democracy, freedom, justice and
international goodwill.

Nearly 500 of the army's latest type

keep 'em talking to each other long
enough there's usually a settle
ment"
KEEP THEIR
TONGUES MOVING
That's the theory the Concilia-
ton Service works on: keep EN-
talking No matter how far apart
the parties to an industrial dispute
may be, the conciliators have found
that they can generally reach an
agreement if they can just be kept
comforting.
The Secretary of Labors annual
report shows how many strikes the
service settles in the course of a
year, and gives elaborate statistics
on working days lost through
strikes, wages and profits affected,
and so on. But an important part
of the services work never shows
up in the statistics. 1t settles lot
of strikes before they happen-be-
fore they even get close enough to
happening to go down in the rec
ords AS industrial disputes.
Most of the 6O-odd commission
ers in the service stay out in the
field. instead of making Washing
ton their headquarters. This is in
line with Steelman's motion that
a conciliator that makes one in
dustrial area his stamping ground
and gets on friendly terms with
employers and union leaders there
can see trouble coming and head it off
before it arrives.
Cancellation Service now costs
about 100000 year TO operate.
Steelman would like to have 100
commissioners, instead of the SO
he now has, and would like TO have
enough money to raise their pay a
bit. Beyond that he thinks the out
fit doesn't need much of anything.
