Seek 10 Prevent
Tank Strike Call
Neeotiators to Resume
Sessions on Monday

Negotiations 10 prevent the
strike voted by employees of the
Chrysler tank arsenal were TO be
resumed Monday. probably under
direction of James F. Dewey, fed
'eral mediator, il was announced
Saturday.
The strike vote was taken after
employees rejected a contract ten
tatively agreed upon by manage
.ment and union negotiators. The
contract would have provided au-
tomobile industry rates for most
of the 5000 tank plant employees
and a Reconsideration survey OF
approximately $50 skilled workers.
Rank and file members of the
UAW-CIO local overruled the ne
gotiators and demanded broader
application Of the skilled labor
'claSsificationS.
The strike vote carried by a
majority of 95.5 per cent. A 30
day notice of intent to strike was
10 be filed with the state labor
mediation board under provision
of the state law that such notice
must be given in defense indus
tries.
The threatened strike action
came only a few hours after the
war department had announced a
S1S.S75,000 grant to the company
for machinery and plant expansion
intended TO double present produc-
ton capacity.

essary to agree with Herndon that

Hiiman Puzzle

The uncertain factor hanging
over the convention is the atti-
tude of Hillman's friends.
They are going into the conven-
ton claiming backing by Hill
mans own Amalgamated Clothing
Workers, the textile workers, the
rubber workers, the Unite d
Wholesale and Retail Workers,
the shipbuilding and marine work
ers and 60 per cent of the vote of
the United Auto Workers, besides
a few other smaller unions.
Murray will control the SWOC
(steel workers. and Lewis the
big United Mine Workers Union.
Another uncertainty is the at
titude of the left-wing TACT ion
which generally supported and
embarrassed Lewis up
until the time Russia started

IL Is reproduced In Winston

It shows that the method of
getting America into an alien war

We can almost hear Mr..

method OF involving the United
States I'm war at his meetings
with his own high authorities and
some of OUR American high
authorities.
We can almost hear him urg-

MUNICH, Nov. 8.-Adolf Hitler
tonight in effect warned the
United States Navy patrolling the
Atlantic that German warcraft
will continue to hit back whenever
attacked, and openly dared Britain
to launch an invasion of the Ear
ropean continent which he pictured
as bristling Nazi-created fortress.
In a surprise speech to old Nazt
Party fighters" gathered in .
Munich beer cellar to celebrate
the eighteenth anniversary of the
abortive 1923 beerhall putsch, tn
reichsfuehrer declared also that
Russia has suffered such colossal
material losses that she is beyond
hope of rescue by the United
States and Britain.
Bidding Germans and the peo-
Piles associated with them to have
no fear of Americas gigantic
armament program. Hitler asserted
that Germany is organizing the
defensive forces of all Europe, a.
well as the Reich ITSELF"
SCOTS at u. S. Arms
! He ridiculed what he called the
foolish efforts of some Americans
to generate fright in Germany by
means of threats concerning huge
farms building.
As if in answer to Russian
Premier Josef Stains bid for the
opening OF a second front" by
Britain with American support,
Hitler warned that Europe's North
Sea and Atlantic coasts have been
rendered impregnable" and taunt.

'Tf the British would like to
start an offensive in Norway,
on the German coast. In HoI-
land, Belgium or France, we can
only say: Come on. You'll be
beaten off faster than you ar

The Reichsfuehrer answered the
question of why the Germans have
not yet completed the conquest Of
Russia, declaring:
"Never before has q huge en-
pire been smashed faster. People
are asking why we do not march
