COOPERATE AND BENEFIT

A RE you true to yourself? There is a question
to study, reread and study again. 1t is ex-
tremey important to you. You believe in unions
and the principles in back of them. You work
under union conditions and receive union wages,
but do you always advance your own cause by
helping other unionists?
Do you make certain that everything you buy
has been manufactured under the same fair con-
ditions you enjoy? All too frequently American
workers have underestimated their collective
strength as the largest single consumers group in
the nation The reason is obvious. In the struggle
for improved incomes, for union recognition and
for other minimum working Standards their at
tenton has been so closely drawn to questions in
volving the acquisition of income that problems re-
latng to it's expenditure have been neglected. But
when you buy unon-made goods you are endorsing
your own union principles and benefting yourself.
Remember success for one helps the success of
all unions. Cooperate with your brother workers
and be in position to demand their cooperation
with you.
Every time you buy union-made goods you
strike a blow at unfair manufacturers. You help
wipe out the products made by non-union people
49,. the people who are working against you.
Think, talk and push union-labeled products.
You owe it to yourself. Make the label as import
ant as the price of an article. Take the habit home
with you and spread it throughout the shops.

THEY NEED WATCHING
(NeW York Times

IN view of the past history Of the ku kluX klan
and the German American Bund, their joint
meeting at Camp Nordland, New Jersey, on Sun
day, seemed mingling of kindred souls. 1t also
seemed appropriate that the Bunds brass band
should do it's best to drown out "Ihe Star-Spangled
Banner when some local residents who did not
share the klan-Bund conception Of "Americansm"
gathered outside the fence and started to sing.
The klans indictments to racial and religious
hatreds furnish helpful background for the
Bund's campaign for Hitlersm. The effect of these
singly or in combination, to the degree
that they succeed, is to weaken our democracy and
Impede preparation for the national defense. The
national anthem does not belong in that setting.
The Americanism which both the klan and
the Bund deSplSe gives them the right to hold
meetings, to make speeches and to publish their
Opinions in print. 1t does not give them the right
to stir up riots or otherwise break the law. This
country is now engaged in readying itself to de-
fend its territories and its interests against an
enemy who may never attack us if we are fully
prepared but whose identity is known. Any or
ganization which openly supports that possible
enemy, as the Bund does directly and Klan
members did indirectly by their presence at Nord-
land on Sunday, ought to be kept under close and
constant surveillance. We hope that the Federal
and local police keeping close tab on the INan
las well as the Bund, and that they will be pre-
pared to act if either group steps outside the law

Where company preachers furnish

Where newspapers are Girdlerized

Hitlerism squeezes out the little
business man
Hitler lets only sons of "loyal" men
go to school
This is strangely familiar in U. S.

Total War squeezes human labor out
of every possible pore
But that is only the old Bedeaux
System
1t was the Blitzkrieg, when they
called out the Militia
ShuX: we've been living with Nazi
stuff for decades
x X X
Now we begin to see:
Hitlerism is not just voting for only
one party
Nazis smashed the old trade unions
when they got power
Now they're doing it all over
Europe
Collective bargaining there would be
treason
Something for which you lose your
head: by the axe route
In his book, Hitler lovingly speaks
of ''my people,
Calls them, gently "Jackasses";
thinks they are "dumm"-
Therefore he is closing their
schools
Two out Of three Austrian Univer-
sites are closed
Only sons with "loyal fathers" may
have mental training
Those dear "dumm Esels" must not
be exposed to such culture
And science must be strictly con-
fined to useful" things
Such as how to smash: England,
democracies, atoms

Our newspapers print comic strips,
to please the people
Our press is "free," to print what
people pay for
Nazi newspapers print only what
pleases Goebbels-

Result: Germany doesn't read Ger

We complain of advertisers con-

They already know what he thinks
So this is Nazi-dom-

Some newspapers, also radios, but
NO NEWS
Yet, little business men shouted for
