"The President
Also Spoke"
By DIR. CHARLES STELZLE

-Four score and seven years ago
our fathers brought forth upon this
continent a new nation.
President Lincoln was beginning his
address at the dedication of the Natl
onal Cemetery at Gettysburg, but the
crowd was so intent upon applauding
and congratulating Edward Everett
the famous orator who had preceded
him, that they missed the opening
words of the speaker.
The next day the newspapers pub
lished long stories Of the meeting, Civ
ing commendatory report OF
Everett's address. But in most cases
the newspaper accounts ended with
the simple statement: "The President
also spoke"
Americans have little noted mol
long remembered what Everett sale
there. His brilliant" speech has long
since been forgotten, but it is al
ready clear that the world will never
forget what Lincoln did there. His
less than three hundred words have
become known as one Of the worlds
greatest speeches.
Between his opening statement that
"our fathers brought forth on this
continent a new nation, conceived ir
liberty, and dedicated to the PROPOSE
tion that all men are created equal,
and his closing plea that "this nation
under God, shall have new birth OF
freedom: and that government Of the
people, by the people, for the people
shall not perish from the earth," ht
asked his audience to pledge them
selves to new dedication which woul(
demonstrate that "thesc dead shall not
have died in vain"
He etched indelibly upon world his
tory and literature as clear, as lucid
as understanding a statement Of wha
Americans have lived and died for, as
has ever been uttered.
Back Of Lincoln's speech, and hi:
warrant for it, was nearly a century
of history which tried mems souls ant
cost the lives Of many thousands. lr
the face Of the perils that now con
front America, Lincoln's earnest plea
persistently rings in our ears.
"The President also spoke"
And he is still speaking.

LABOR FIRM FOR DEMOCRACY

East St. Louis, lll.-The American
Federation of Labor, despite the
actions of some anti-union employers,
is not trying to take advantage of
the nations peril to obtain rights and
privileges which workers have never
enjoyed before, George Meany, A. F.
of l.. secretary treasurer told the
Trades and Labor Union here. "All
that we are asking" Meany said, ''is
that these rights and privileges, which
are the very essence of democracy for
whose defense we are SO rapidly and
determinedly arming, shall not be set
aside now"

ALL. Policy On
Continued from Page One)

when American democracy is arming
itself for self preservation, produc-
tion of defense materials must be
speeded rather than delayed. That is
why we have voluntarily adopted this
mo strike policy.
"We feel that management has an
equal responsibility in this connec-
tion and we appeal to American in
dustry to employ with labor the peace
full processes Of collective bargaining
so that we can function in efficient
teamwork for the successful compile
tion of the defense program"
Mr.. Masterton said there is no real
shortage Of workers in the building
and construction field. Mr.. McDonagh
asserted that in the metal trades "the
only labor shortages we have encoun-
tered are in two or three highly skill
ed classitications" that they are being
overcome by overtime, by raising the
age limits and by training and re-
training programs.
A plan to increase production foI
extending the work week in extraor,
dinary cases to seven days a week
was disclosed by the Metal Trades
Departments representative. Unde,
this plan, to be employed "only in ex.
treme cases of emergency" every mar
on the job would work six days, five
days at straight time and the sixth
at overtime rates. The days off woulC
be staggered so that each man woulC

DOUBLE WAGE STANDARD HIT

Washington, d. C.-The double
wage standard-one set of rates for
men and a lower set for women
was described as ."two-edged sword
in a talk here by Mary Anderson, di-
rector of the Women's Bureau, U. S.
Labor Department. The double wage
standard, she said, works an injustice
to women and also cuts into the econ
omic status Of men in fields where the
two sexes are in competition for jobs.
She added that it is responsible for
serious flaws in our economic and So
cial fabric.

Beautiful John Powers models pa
raded these wearable, comfortable
fashions before an audience that was
highly appreciative of the Importance
of this style show The clothes, all
well chosen, are the type that will be
seen in the North this coming spring
and summer No ultrastyling or
"show pieces, but neatness, chic and
sophistication on every article, and at
prices most moderate.
Miami's sun, citrus fruit, sand, eli
mate and Seminoles have been mmor-
taTized in song and story, and now
they are immortalized in fabric de-
signs. "Sand in Your Shoes, "Semi-
nola" and Garden Of Eden" prints,
along with flower-trimmed shoes, jun
gle jewelry made from coconut buds
and sponge lapel flowers were given
a big play.
"Sand in Your Shoes, print
showing a woman's hand taking sand
from her shoes, is offered in nearly all
pastel shades as a background.
"Seminola" print taken from the
tribal dress of the Seminole Indians
and tanned" to such degree that it
will be among the popular dress prints.
1t is delightfully."- barbaric printed
fabric in colorful stripes and makes
you look as slim as totem pole, and
as young as papoose. 1t appears in
blouses, skirts, dresses, slacks and &C
cessories.
New tropical colors presented for
the first time are Sunshine yellow
(you'll see lot Of yellow this sum-
mer); rendezvous, an exciting
orange red; poinsettia red; American
beauty, and "back-talk blue.
American colors of red, white and
blue were used in sport and dressy
afternoon ensembles and were radi-
antly smart. Double breasted sailor
jackets of red and blue were an i'm
portant contribution.
Play clothes of cotton, jersey and
corduroy were fashioned in bright and
colorful prints. Slack suits We're eX-
quisitely tailored or dressy and showed
the Chinese influence, the nautical in
huence, and the new "dinner dress
look for 1941. Swim suits were smooth
fitting and in new materials. Velvet
lastex, new type jersey and silk velvet
were in smart styles. A hula hula two.
piece swim suit drew the most obs
and abs from the crowd-an honest
to goodness hula skirt of cotton over
printed panties with matching bra.
A sea green jersey dinner dress
achieved the effect of hobble skirt
by intridately draped panels. Black
