COMMENT ON WORLD EVENTS

Dor. Limitations on the employment
of certain classes of persons that had
been imposed prior to 1886 when un-
employment was severe were removed
The restrictions on the employment of
married women were revoked. The la
Dor of prisoners was utilized, compul-
sorry labor service was introduced in
June, 1888, for all German citizens
and later was extended to all persons
residing on German territory. With
German industry being organized for
total war effort, system of labor pri-
critics or compulsory labor distribu-
ton was developed.
Then came the enlistment of labor
reserves, the bringing into the labor
market of classes of potential workers
such as prisoners. When these meth
DDS failed to satisfy the ever growing
demands of expanding war industries,
foreign workers were imported, and
after the conquest of Poland, Norway
and other countries, prisoners of war
were used
Integrated with these changes in
the employment situation were the
changes in the regulations governing
wages and hours of work. Maximum
wage rates were established and ex-
listing limits on working hours were
repealed. When it became evident that
excessively long hours brought reduc-
ton in output a check was reimposed.
Both hours and wages, however, were
regulated in the interests of the State
with thought for the welfare of the
workers only to the extent that this
influenced the production curve.
1t is significant that one of the first
steps taken by the National Socialist
regime when it came into power was
the destruction of trade unionism. En-
ployers' associations were also de-
stroyed.

FRIDAY, JUNE 6, 1941.
TOO DRASTIC CUTS OPPOSED

While approving President Roose-
velt's recommendation that WPA ap-
preparations for the coming fiscal year
be reduced by 100000, the Amer
lean Federation of Labor Executive
Council points out that it would be
dangerous and foolhardy" to slash
the appropriation too drastically.
"We cannot, even in times of emer-
gency," the council warns, desert the
army of the unemployed; and, much
as we would like to see it happen,
there is little likelihood that all of the
number now jobless will be able to find
jobs in private industry in the coming
year"
Then the council shows why more
drastic WPA cuts would be most un-
wise. Citing A. F. of L. estimates that
there are still about 100000 persons
unemployed, which may be reduced to
100000 within a year because of
rapid expansion of defense produc-
tion, the council says:
There are many factors preventing
the complete absorption of the unem-
ployed in the immediate future, even
while industrial production goes into
high gear. Man-hour production in
manufacturing has increased to such
an extent that in some industries one
man now produces as much as two
used to do few years ago. This is
due to new labor-saying devices and
processes.
Furthermore, each year there is a
considerable influx of new workers
into the labor market.
Therefore, the appropriation of
$875,000,000 asked by the President
for WPA during the fiscal year ending |
June, 1912, is none too high. 1t means
that WPA employment will have to be
cut by 100000 by the end of next
month from what it was on January |.
1t means that the WPA will be able
to employ an average of only million
persons during the coming year.
"Under these circumstances, fur
ther economies could be achieved only
at the expense of extreme suffering /
by those who are unemployed through
no fault of their own"

Remember: We will see to it that
our supplies reach England and we
will resist encroachment.
In this we are cutting SO sharply
across the Nazi bows that she must
either start shooting at us, or admit
that she is licked.
We are heading fast for state OF
undeclared war.
AS matter of fact, that's the state
we have been in for more than year
But we come now to state of
undeclared shooting war.
The Nazis pop off and we pop right
back-as we darned we'll ought to.
From then on it's war with no holds
barred and to the utter finish.
AS far as domestic affairs are con-
cerned, we have now to behave as if
we were in full state of war.
This is a funny business, talking
about "as if" we were at war, while
at the same time we know that we
ARE at war in the way the govern
ment now thinks will help Britain
most. 1t sounds confusing, and it is
so, as far as discussion goes.
But actually it isn't confusing, for
the whole course has been and is the
one calculated best to help ultimate
victory. If that isn't war, you name it.
In modern warfare the old terms
are not much good. We have to think
in new terms.
So, being "as if" at war, as far as
domestic affairs go, we had best have
long look at what the President had
to say about labor relations and con-
tinuous production.
1t makes official what this column
has been saying for many weeks.
And, as matter of fact, the stop
page of so much defense work may
have been big part of the reason for
the emergency proclamation. Perhaps
we'll never know.
But we know now that defense
work has to go on-that disputes
have to be settled by negotiation,
or by mediation or arbitration
for the duration.
Nobody thinks or hopes that all
strikes will be prevented. There are
several reasons why there will be
some strikes.
One is enemy operations; another
is that in some cases the provocation
is just too ALFRED much; another is
resentment against actual or suspected
profiteering. But we shall have far
fewer stoppages than in the pre-
emergency days just passed. And
that's the way it had better be.
Hard work lies ahead A mora
torium on the millennium. A vacation
from further gains of any Importance.
The pressure will get heavier and
heavier for more output in every line.
1t will affect employers and
workers. Many peace-time prod
ucts will not be made; many 9TH
ers will be made in reduced guam
titles. More planes; more tanks;
more ships; more guns of all
kinds. And uniforms by the mil
lion, instead of civilian clothing.
Hitler has to be beaten and that
won't be done by wishing. The people
of the United States are united as
never before-to beat Hitler-to knock
out relationships that want to boss
the world.

Locals Striking Before Mediation is
Exhausted Warned of Disciplinary
Action - San Francisco Machinists
Asked to Return Immediately.
about.C. M. v

Washington, d. c. (ILNS). - An
nouncing its approval of President
Roosevelt's declaration of an unlimited
national emergency, the Executive
Council of the American Federation of
Labor called upon its members to re-
frain from strikes until every possible
effort at settlement of grievances has
been exhausted.
At the same time, the council urged
the machinists on strike in the San
Francisco shipyards to end their walk
out and Immediately return to work.
Citing the Presidents assertion that
national defense production must not
be interrupted or obstructed by indus
trial disputes" the council declared
that we are not living in normal times,
that all must make sacrifices and that
labor must use existing mediation and
conciliation machinery to avoid stop
pages of work.
Good Faith is Pledged
"We must do this. We can do this.
And we pledge our good faith as
Americans to the President that we
will do this" the council said.
The council went on to point out
that the A. F. of L. had enunciated
no-strike policy on defense work and
said that the policy had been SO per
cent effective.
"However," it added, 1--WE cannot be
satisfied with even this extensive COM
pliance with our national policy in
times of full emergency. Our record
must be 100 per cent or as close to it
as is humanity possible.
therefore," the council continued,
1--WE call upon every union affiliated
with the American Federation of La
Dor to refrain for any reason whatso-
ever from calling a strike interfering
with national defense production until
full opportunity has first been given
to the Cancellation Service of the De-
partment of Labor and to the National
Defense Mediation Board to bring
about a peaceful settlement of the
dispute.
Violations to be Punished
"The American Federation of Labor
will take disciplinary action itself
against any local union coming under
it's direct jurisdiction which violates
this policy.
"The Executive Council of the
American Federation of Labor calls
upon it's national and international
unions to take such disciplinary action
as is provided in their constitutions
against any affiliated local union which
fails to comply with similar policy.
eve know that the vast majority
of loyal and patriotic unions making
up the federation will continue to live
up to their responsibilities as they
have in the past. They will do this
gladly and of their own free will"
In statement on the San Francisco
shipyard strike, the council said that
it felt justified in stating its position
because "the outcome of the strike
will affect not only the workers en-
gagged in it, but all of organized la
bor." The council added:
Regardless of the issues involved
and of the demands which may have
been made, it is the opinion of the
Executive Council that the member

GLOW Germany Forces Labor to
Work for Conquest" might well be the
name of a new International Labor
Office pamphlet issued under the title
Labor Policy in Germany Under the
Nazi Regime" Employment policy,
industrial relations and the regulation
of hours and wages are among the
topics discussed in general account
of how the leaders of National So
cialist Germany mobilized their labor
reserves preparatory to their cam
paign of aggression.
The totalitarian program, it is ex-
planned in the study, is founded on the
principle that all the material and
human resources of the nation are at
the disposal of the State for the
achievement of it's ends. Social policy
is employed as tool for achieving
the aims of the Nazi leaders.
The employment policy under the
Nazi regime, it is stated, can be di-
vided into two periods that prior to
1886 when emphasis was placed on
eliminating unemployment; and that
from 1886 on, which began with the
intensifcation of armament produc-
ton and the initiation Of the -Four
year Plan"
Subordinating all social ends to
strengthening the State for the an
ticipated war, Germany undertook first
to eliminate unemployment. This was
accomplished by various devices in
cluding redistribution of jobs, restric-
tion upon the employment of women,
public works, labor camps and COM
pulsory military training.
After the elimination of unemploy-
ment came the need for vast labor
resources to be utilized in constructing
Germany's enormous military machine.
This involved the mobilization of labor
reserves and the requisitioning of la
