Japan Is Hopeful


 Tokyo, Sept, 1o- CUP) - Hope surged suddenly in Japanese ofii- cial and business quarters today that an important Japanese United States agreement was near. The na- ton awaited a statement by Prince Fumimaro Konoye, premier, on for eign policy.
 The emperor's privy council met for two hours to hear confidential reports on the general war situa- ton, especially on the Russo Ger man campaign by Gen. Hideki Tojo war minister, and Gen. Heitare Okanaoto, of the army general staff It was reported that this meet ing and the reports given at 1t were closely related to the negotiations which, 1t is now known, are being conducted between Japan and the United States on Pacific problems (There have been indications that Japanese leaders are inclining to- ward the view that Germany is go. ing to lose the war, and diplomatic quarters at Shanghai reported to. day that in any agreement between

uuarters here that if conservative Jnnanese clements, including the nahinet as a whole, succeeded In their program, it would mean a gradual withdrawal of Japan from kts ties with Germany.
 Further, 1t was said, the agree snent would plan an unrestricted Flow of American supplies to Vladi- yostok, Russia, through the Set of Japan.
 It was anticipated here that success of the reported negotiations would permit @ gradual withdrawal of important American naval forces from the Pacific.
 Diplomats heard that negotia- tiong had been conducted in great est secrecy at Washington and TOkyo through Admiral Kichisa- huro Normura, the Japanese am bassador to the United States, and Joseph Clark Grew, United States ambassador to Japan. Up to yes terday Grew had seem Admiral lei diro Toyoda, Japanese foreign min tster, l2 times within seven days.
 Secrecy Preserved
 Secrecy was preserved partly, 1t was asserted, to give as little chance as possible for pro-AXis Japanese clements to interfere.
 For the same reason, 1t was said, any announcement of Japanese United States agreements would be phrased cautiously, in order to ease the situation and to permit a grad- ual transition of Japanese public opinion away from the German alliance idea.
 The eight-point program of Pres ident Roosevelt and British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, prom asing availability of raw materials for all nations, was said to have made c great impression among Japanese leaders.
 Another factor, according to ir- kormantS, was Q growing belief among Japanese leaders that Ger many can not win the war.
 As part of negotiations, Japan was sal dto have asked assurances that cooperation would be given to permit reconstruction of Japans economy, hard hit by BritihS- American pressure.

Accident Prevention Campaign Found
Beneficial To Both City and Employees

Chicago (ILNS).-An accident pre-
vention campaign among city en-
ployes based on education, competi-
tion and incentives has paid Morgan
ton, N. c., in reduction of accidents
by more than 70 per cent and a Is
per cent cut in insurance premiums
during the first year of it's trial, the
International City Managers Asso-
citation reports.
In the year ending June 80, 1941,
Morganton city employees had 12 acci-
dents, of which only two were COM
pensation cases, while in the preced-
ing year, there had been AZ accidents
and five compensation cases. The con-
sequent Is per cent reduction in work
mems compensation insurance pre-
miums for 1941 contrasts with a few
years ago, when the city had such an
unfavorable accident record that in
surance companies refused to handle
its policies voluntarily, and the state
industrial commission had to assign
the insurance to a specific company.

What Can You
Do Without?
BY RUTH TAYLOR

In the months that lie ahead, we
are going to have to sacrifice many
of the things we have come to look
upon as essential to our comfort and
we'll being-make no mistake about
that. But just what will that sacrifice
, mean?
The best way to determine this is
to face the facts squarely and decide
just what we want out of life. What
can we do without?
First, we want an opportunity to
work at living wage; next, to live
decently; and third, enough leisure to
have a chance to learn and to enjoy
life.
But in order to obtain any of these
things, we must first have freedom.
Therefore, that is the one thing we
cannot do without. 1t is the corner
stone on which this democracy of ours
is built and it is the living, abiding
force that keeps it going.
Check over the peace aims of Brit
ish labor However they are phrased
freedom is at the base of every one
"No dictated peace; Fright of all
nations to live and Develop; "Com-
plete abandonment of aggression
"Recognition of the rights of minori-
ties"; abandonment Of Imperialism
They can all be expressed in three
words "Freedom for ALL"
The same is true of the five points
laid down by the Pope-"Abolishment
of extreme inequality in wealth ant
possessions; Equal opportunities fol
every child, regardless of race OF
class; "Safeguarding of the family"
. "Restoration of the sense of divine
: vocation to mans daily work.; Gus;
of the resources of the earth as Cod
" gift to the whole human race, will
due consideration for present AM
future generations" This means free
dom for all.
Freedom is the essential element il
all our wants-but to keep it we mus
give up certain things-and this i

A special committee was appointed
some time ago to visit all stores and
restaurants to see what could be done
about non-union ware. One restaurant
owner told the committee members to
bring basket and they could have
all the non-union ware in the place.
He promised not to purchase any
more, stating he was a union man
himself and didn't care to be obigat-
ed to a non-union concern. Members
Of the committee were Fred Shaffer
Roy Balsley and Phil Laughlin from
Local Union No. AZ and Messrs. Fen
ton, Coffee and Yates from the Mul-
Inns Manufacturing Corporation.
The picnic committee gave their
final report and received a vote of
thanks from the membership. We
hope to have a bigger and better pic
nc next year.
The investigating committee for the
civic beauty of our city gave their re-
port and was dismissed, their report
being accepted by the local.

employees wages during slack times
so he can cut the selling price.
There is no foreign competition ir
the sanitary business and no reason
why the sanitary manufacturers
should not welcome the effort on oul
part to stabilize the industry. No rea
son why men who produce a product
so essential to humanity's welfare il
that it gives him much comfort, hap

1t seems logical that intelligent mel

"The battle of production for the
defense of civilization moves forward,
1t is a gigantic undertaking which re-
ouires the fullest use of all our re-
sources. On the other hand, the tran
sition from production of implements
of peace to those of war involve the
dislocation of ordinary industrial ar
rangements. Strategic materials and
facilities are limited. Under the pri-
critics system they are properly being
diverted more and more to vital de
.fense work.
"This means enforced temporar!
.idleness for some men and machines
Simple justice and the national de
tense both demand that this idlenes'
be kept to a minimum. We must no
allow workers dropped, as result o
priority orders, to walk the street
for weeks looking for new jobs. 1t i
not fair to those workers and thel
families. 1t is not fair to the rest .
the country, which is being asked t
produce at a faster and faster pace.
