plaintiff further says that
among the immediate detectives

the Communist Party OF the
United states seeks control and
domination of the various labor
organizations of the Unite
States In order TO subject them
TO the control by the Communist
international and of Russia.
That IL has been an objective
pursued by the Communist
Party of the United States from
Its very beginning, and that
a mOng the organizations of
which they have obtained COM

they have fully penetrated, is

plaintiff further says that
the Congress of Industrial Or
CARNATIONS, hitherto known
as the Committee for Indus
trial Organization, has been
influenced by the Communist
Party of the United States in

plaintiff further says that
the Communist Party of the
United States, the CIO and the
JAW CLIO, embarked upon a
conspiracy to obtain control of
the automobile industry of the
United States, and that such
conspiracy began as early as
1885. That the purpose of such
conspiracy was to support the
detectives of the Communist
International and Soviet Russia,
as heretofore described, and that
such purposes are still the same
up to and including now. That
such conspiratorial purposes run
counter to the best interests of
American democracy and of the
people of the United States, by
reason of the premises"

This world some day is bound to settle itself
TO series of cOmnaratiNelN Self-cnntained econ

This world some day is bound to settle itself
into series of comparatively sef-contained econ
omic areas. l sketched this progression back in
1884 in my book America Self Contained" Since
then it would appear that South America is de-
veloping into such an area, for the industriaza-
ton of Brazil is complementary to that of the
Argentine These world areas will have natural
srade amongst them in specialties. The areas
may arise out of world poverty and exhaustion.
That is point of hope.
But in the meantime what will America have to
sell after the war? We have lost our trade in cot
ton and the foodstuffs. That leaves machinery
as our only large export. But only when nations
are preparing for do they need our machinery
n considerable quantities. We must either stop
importing or pay in gold-while our workers re-
main idle.
SO it would appear that our fanciful flights into
an internationalist Utopia may be brought down
to hard earth by the stark fact that SHALL after
the war, have nothing to sell which the world
cannot better buy somewhere else. 1t would seem
the part of wisdom to study the facts of our econ
omy before it is too late.

TELLING LABOR'S STORY

ABOR has a story to tell and there never was a
better time to tell it than right now, Julius
t1ochman, general manager of the Dress Joint
Board, International Ladies' Garment Workers.
Union said in a recent New York address. What he
said is well worth the consideration Of every trade
union in the nation
Urging the American labor movement to enter
upon large scale labor promotion program" de-
signed to improve it's general public relations,
Hochman said the time was ripe for labor "to sell
itself to the public, to run it's own public relations
program on a scale rivaling that of manufacture
ers and other organized groups"
Hochman suggested that the press, radio,
movies, billboards and printed material be employ
ed by labor to tell the public the straightforward
and honest story of abors accomplishments. Of
course in such program, the labor press would
play a big part,-a part for which it should be
prepared by strengthening in every possible man.

GErom The Painter and Decorator)
NEW drivers of automobiles realize that the chief
enemy Of speed in their cars is the unseen
and silent atmosphere. Physicists have proved
that, after car has reached speed of 40 miles
IAN hour more power is needed to overcome air
resistance than road-resistance. If a car is going
so miles an hour, between Is and % horsepower
us used simply to overcome arresistance, and that
is more than one-fourth the horsepower of the
ordinary engine.
In many ways automobiles remind us of men,
and especially in this particular When far-seeing
men try to bring about some reform, their work
in advancing the reform is more than half spent
in overcoming the pervasve, silent, obstinate op-
position Of pre- judice and selfishness The atmos-
phere OF society must be overcome before any
progress can be made with the reform. When
this persistent and universal force works at last
with the Improvement, the reform is virtually
accomplished.

ON MEDICAL CARE COSTS

New York City (ILNS>.-As part
Of a study Of public health conditions
in New York, the County Medical So
cioty has asked 400 unions to furnish
data to be used in public hearings by
the society.
Questionnaircs have been mailed
asking whether medical costs present
serious problems to trade unionists
and their families, whether the union
has drawn up plan for meeting
medical costs and whether, in the
opinion Of the union, such costs should
be borne by the individual, his en-
pIoycr or the government.

That's what all the dictators say, Fascist as

But they ALL trample ruthlcSsly on the mass

COMMENT ON WORLD
EVENTS

Recommendation in line with the
program of organized labor were APP
proved at recent meeting held under
the direction of the International La
Dor Office in Montreal and attended by
representatives of the government of
Canada and the United States and of
employers and workers of both coun-
tries.
Organization of the labor supplies
of essential industries-a major natl
onal defense problem-was the sub
ject of discussion. 1t is Of interest
that the recommendations strongly
emphasized the planning Of defense
projects to give work to the unem-
ployed, which the American Fedora
ton of Labor has insisted from the
very beginning of the defense pro-
gram must be kept always in mind.
Thus the meeting agreed that at is
advisable that measures for utilizing
the services Of the available unemploy-
ed men including men discharged from
the armed forces should, wherever
possible, be given priority over other
measures to meet increased labor re-
QuirementS."
Again, the meeting dealing with the
question Of maintaining employment
and preventing action that throws men
out Of work, said:
at is advisable that the expansion
r IoP, ,,,cl,,.+;.r, L.,
planned that the curtailment of non
essential production or the conversion
of the plant capacity and labor force
of nOn-esSential industry to war needs
is effected in such a manner that un-
employment is avoided or reduced to a
minimum"
at is advisable" the conference also
said, chat defense orders should be
distributed, directly or through sub
contracting, among all undertakings
capable of taking an effective part in
the national defense program, in order
that transfers Of workers from one
employment, area or occupation to an
other be limited as much as possible
and that factory units may be kept
intact wherever possible"
X X x
Conclusions and recommendations of
the meeting were much too long to
quote in full but enough has been
given to show the spirit of the con-
ference, which never lost sight Of the
vital Importance of promoting en-
ployment. On other matters also,
such as the maintenance Of good Ia
Dor standards, the conference saw eye
to eye with labor.
For example, the conference said:
''The importance Of conserving man
power by avoiding human wastage
which would aggravate problems Of
labor supply makes it necessary that
special attention should be given in
time of defense emergency to ques@
tions of accident prevention, indus
trial hygiene, preventive medicine,
nutrition, and hours of work, and to
the adequacy of the system Of en-
fOrcement."
The conclusions Of the conference
bear every evidence of having been
guided by labor thought and opinion,
which was represented, among others,
by Robert j. Watt, of the American
Federation Of Labor; Tom Moore,
president of the Trades and Labor
Congress of Canada and lsador Lubin,

tics. Edward J. PhClan, acting director

WHAT HAVE WE GOT TO SELL?
Guest Editorial by Samuel CrOwther in the
Made In America Monthly MAGAZINE


THIS is now the silly season for projecting blue
prints for brave new world which we are tC
enter, once the carnage Of war has ceased. The
most popular plan is for some sort of British
American alliance which will establish free trade
and democracy throughout the world financed
with Fort Knox gold, and with a police force to
keep all trade free and everyone democratic. The
least popular plan is Herr IItler's. He would have
the world trade on a Naz plan, using Nazi tokens
instead of gold, and with police force to prevent
trade from being free and people from going dem
ocratic.
There is no harm in anyone sketching Utopias
1T is an ancient and entertaining pastime But
there is no reason to believe that this war; unlike
all previous wars, will recreate lives and property
as IT destroys them and be prelude to peace and
good will. That is not the way of war. We can
more reasonably accept as facts that when this
ends the people of the world will have lost
their savings as represented by money or money
instruments and that productive machinery for
the goods of peace will be either worn out or
smashed and the pail of hunger and poverty will
descend on everyone but the politicians. Our own
nation will escape the physical destruction of it's
plans, but undoubtedly that plant will be worn out
and Just undoubtedly our financial system will
either collapse as did all the European systems,
or be kept in state Of suspended animation for a
while through system Of insulation and isolation
such as those OF us who are proud to be called
'lsolatlonlSts' never dreamed Of. Let us there
fore keep our feet Squarey on the ground-no
matter where our heads may wander
Nothing new is being said am not surprised
to hear that the policy of our nation in trying
to collect its debts after the last war, while at
the same time preserving its tariff barriers,
brought on the present war and hence it is up to
us to do penance and to rearrange the world That
is the old debt cancelIationist stuff. The fact is
that after the last war and the ilaWley-SmOOt
tariff of 1880, our nation still had the lowest aver
age duties and the largest free list in the world.
The imports under that free list and our tourist

suddenly this morning at his home
at 1903 Lowell street NV.
A native of Leesburg, Va, Mr.
Hess had been in Government
service since 1898 and had been at
the White House since November 4,
1905. On July !, 1924, he was made
record clerk at the White House, the
title of this post being changed to
chief Of records in the recent re-
classification of Government service.
Mr.. Hess first became a Federal
employe at the Government Print
ing Office.
He was known to his colleagues
at the White House as a man of
extraordinary memory and knew
from memory where most official
documents were filed. Mr.. Hess had
been suffering in recent months
from high blood pressure. He had
not, however, been absent from
work, but last night called a physi-
clan to his home. He died this
morning shortly before he GUS
tomarily left for the White House.

for them and for us all"
Perspective toward problems Of
morale has changed since 1917, Mr..
McNutt said, and now the idea that
human values are nationally i'm
portant has already sold itself to
the American people.
Outlining the operation of the
Nationwide organization, Mr.. Nc
Mutt said the fork divided itself
into three phases. He listed the
first as the gearing together of all
Federal activities which contribute
to and support the program, and
the second as clearing the tracks
all along the Federal-State-local
line of cooperation" The third
was listed as the job of relating
Government activities and private
activities.
Attempting to define in specific
terms the work expected of the or
ganization, Mr.. McNutt said:
Translated into the realities of
today and tomorrow, that means
doing the thousand and one things
necessary to provide the normal
of -the-job activities for millions of
young people uprooted from their
normal lines and their home sur
roundings."

tions are planning to set up Serv-

funds will be augmented by money
expected from the $15O,0O0 900 COM
munity service bill pending in a
congressional committee.
Presidents Message Read.
In the message read by Mr.. Nc
Mutt, the President said:
IF national defense is to be an
all-out effort, the preservatlun-yes,
and the strengthening-of spiritual
and social values is imperative.
In ordinary times. We take these
ordinary good things of life for
granted-no doubt more for granted
than we can well afford. Certainly
in times of emergency like the pres
ent, competency is luxury which
we must cast asi6e.
Every communit" in the country
has an obligation to scrutinize its
services. its facilities fer meeting the
spiritual, recreational and welfare
needs of its own people. Every
citizen has an opportunity to scruti-
nize his contribution to the COM
mon life he shares with his neigh
bors. Together citizen and COM
munity have an obligation to MAIN
tain the wholesome, constructive ac-
tivities and services which we think
of as typically American"
The president further lauded the
aims of the U. S. O., which are, he
said, Ito serve soldiers, sailors, de-
tense workers in ways which will
make daily life-and in particular
