Two Strikes at Bridgeville.

were in progress at Bridgeville, Pa.
-Four hundred employees of the
Vanadium Corp. walked out four
weeks ago in protest, they said, to
the company's action in ignoring
unemployed union members in
hiring six plant guards.
c. I o. Regional Director Anthony
j. Federoff, in individual pleas, ap-
pealed to the strikers today to as
semble for report on a National
Defense Commission conference
called to study the strike.
Mr.. Federoff, who charges that
officers Of the local union have re-
fused to call a meeting, told the
strikers in personal letters that lit
Is of vital Importance" that one be
held without delay.
At the Universal-C yclops Steel Co.
$500 men have been out since Feb
ruary 20, claiming their wages we're
80 per cent under the rate paid by
other similar concerns.
At Milwaukee, where a c. I. o.
called strike against the Allis
Chalmers Manufacturing Co. was
in its eighth week, John r. Steel
man, chief of the United States
Cancellation Service. planned sepa-
rate conferences with union and
company officials. The strike, which

men also were affected by the work
stoppage.
Munro B. Lanier, president of the
ingalls, Shipbuilding Co., said today
work on all ships at the company's
Pascagoula Miss plant would be
forced to halt unless striking riggers
and erectors returned to their jobs
at once.
Mr.. Lanier declared mo steel has
been erected on the ships since the
walkout and each day the riggers
and erectors are out represents one
days delay in delivery of 10 ships,
including those to be laid down after
the launching of the ships now on
the ways"
Navy Vessels Involved.
These ships, he said, include four
large combat vessels for the United
States Navy. Other ships are being

approximately $50 ringers, men,
bers of the International Associa-
ton of Bridge, Structural and Or

milton by the company" and in
protest against wages and hours of
work.
Another strike remained in prog
ress at the j. G.. Brill Co. plant in
Philadelphia, which has orders for
artillery mounts. c. I. o. employees

or the sudden arrow from the
thicket always behind their Shoul-
der. Many died.
Those who lived were grateful
humbly thankful for life itself un-
der rugged conditions which would
cause many Of use today to cry
cut in pain and anger. Yet by the
sheer fact that a few bushels of
corn had been reaped from their
labors. they were prompted to a
little festival Of thanksgiving. Their
example has been so forceful that
every generation of Americans has
followed it.
Every generation has seen that
American grow and expand until
today it is a mighty nation. Every
generation has seen the material
blessings multiply until today that
natiCn is the most favored OF all
the nations of the earth. Still We
observe the Thanksgiving Day our
fathers ordained.
May some portion of their humil-
ity. their fOrtitude, their sense Of
dedication and determination to be
worthy of their blessings descend
to us as we bow Cur heads in
thanks, praying that We may be
worthy in some relation at least to
our unique favOrS.

Let us Be Thankful

For peace and plenty, on this
Day, 194l, let lis be
truly and humbly thankful.
They are lnestlmaple blessings III
a world where millions are ravaged
BY war and ga,mt-bellied with Sheer
want
But what does it mean to be thank
full, really thankful? Surely there
is more in thankfulnesS for human
beings than the wagging- tailed
gratitude with which dog thanks
a kind master for a bone! Surely
there is more in thankfulnesS for
men and women with souls than to
bask smugly in well-being and to
return thanks that are half graft
tude, half satisfaction and a
feeling of superiority.
For sentient human beings there
are the seeds of death in thoughts
like those. Thanksgiving for men
and women must be more than that.
1t must include dedication. 1t must
include humility. 1t must include
determination to be worthy Ct great
benefits, whether those benefits
have been bestowed or not

PRICE CONTROL?

Sometimes it seems that national d.
tense is secondary to what the New Deal
ers call reform" in our present ma
tional legislative maneuNerlngS. l"h@'
for instance. the much discussed price
control bill.
Practically everybody, including Price
Administrator Leon Henderson. ADMITS
that the bill in its present form will q"
as little to control prices as would Z
consumer strike in Dogpatch. mere l.
no wage ceiling in the bill, and there ar
very few provisions which will permit
anv actual. effective price control. !
right now the big drive by administrator
supporters in congress IS not to StfenFlh-
en the price control features OF the bIl =
it is to remove a specific provision Whlch
Limits the authoity Of the admlnlStfatof
to compel changes in established business
practices or cost practices, means or aldS
to distribution in any industry, except 10
the extent that such action is necessary 70
prevent evasion or circumVenton OF any
ceiling under the bill.
A sound provision. All that II says
is that the administrator cannot go pe-
yond his duties Of price control. II would
prevent him from meddllng IN the intern
al structure of private businesses, but
# still allows him to do whatever i nee
essary to enforce price ceilings Ooud
anything be falrer?
Why the big drive to remove that re
striction? Is this to be defense emefgea-
cv measure-Or Just another vehicle tor
unworkable New Deal theory?
