AMERICAS; AN ACID TEST
(ChriStian Science Monitor)


The Americas have reacted to the first
acid test Of their solidarity under war
conditions by all-out aid for the United
States from nine smaller nations in Cen
tral America and the Caribbean. by quail
flied but substantial aid from the ten
on the continent Of South America. and
from Mexico promises of aid short-of-
war.
Argentina Brazil, Chile. and Peru.
constituting the masSed strength of South
America. have not taken the plunge into
war against Japan What they would
do IN event Of a Nazi attack on the Unit
ed States is not fully known. That would
be the final acid test for tho solidarity
that has been preached and strengthened
in recent years.
Reasons for caution in remote South
American capitals are understandable
Nations closer to the United States feel
more secure in exposing themselves to
effects of war with the triple Axis.
In view Of South Americas reticence,
vast significance attaches to the forth
coming consultation of American foreign
minister's. to be held promptly in one of
the major South American capitals
Argentina. by permitting the United
States Navy to use its ports. has come a
long way from the attitude prevailing
before Japan attacked. Brazil and Chile

On balance, hemisphere solidarity has
met the acid test with encouraging though
spotty results. Much remains to be done
in the Americas and in the world before

The significance of the discovery
is multiple. First, the high prob
ability that Dr. Bottoms plate OF
Brass is automatically brakes Is
further strengthened by the lind
ing of these contemporary objects
which have lain secure and undiS-
turbed in the soil for over three
centuries.
Next, anthropologists can now
definitely date the native culture
of the Estero mound as Of around
1895. Herewith we can date COM
parable Indian cultures elsewhere
in California as being of the same
period-heretofore the earliest pos
tive dating of Indian European
contact material has been from the
beginning of the mission period,
about ITS. We have now pushed
our chronology back almost two
centuries beyond.

biologists have recovered "a por-

WE CANNOT QUALIFY THE
NEED We FEEL TODAY

1t seems to US that it is not right to
say, I've need every able bodied man
who is able to produce-but we won't
use him unless he pays dues to a Ger
tain union"
If this nation needs men in industry
there can be no qualification. man
can produce as much whether he be-
longs to a union or not The goods he
produces are as vital, regardless of his
union affiliation. a bomb doesn't need
union label Oh it to be deadly.
The Welders, rash though they may be,
are standing up for an American prime
iple when they refuse to pay tribute
and heavy tribute at that-to some
union other than the one of their choice
We do not believe it should be allowed
that they are discharged from their jobs
because they are strong-minded enough
to DEFY the union racketeers.
The welders have just complaint
and if our government is interested IN
keeping the peace in labor, it must be
recognized.

THE WELDERS
RIGHT AND WRONG

If their work StOppage impodes the Ia
tiOnal war effort 10y 50 much as the idle
ness of one acetyIone torch, the Welders
of Pacific coast ShipyardS are wrong.
But more previously wrong Is the SYs-
tenn that has brought them to the desper-
ate place they occupy. Trades against
the WeldcrS cannot cover up the fact lii
normal times they would have complete
moral justification for their Walkout.
The plight of the WelderS Is one which
should stir the federal government. the
congress and the National Labor Rela-
tionS board to corrective activity. It Is
not enough to say that the WelderS should
not strike because we are at war. and
leave it at that. Doing SO, we would be
condoninE an industrial Injustice OF the
first water.
We repeat that We do not believe any
thing should be allowed to interfere with
production during these days. We do
not believe the welderS should stop work.
More than that however, we do hot
believe they would stop work. il they
were allowed to work as free men.
The fact Of the matter is that there is
a rottenneSS at the heart of the industrial
picture which needs cleaning out. before
it seepS entirely through the nations
war effort and does immeasurably more
by the independent Welders' union.
The case Of the welderS Spotlights that
rottenneSS.
Consider this;
The nation is engaged in war that
is as much war OF production as a War
of bullets The nation has been told
BY none other than its chief executive
that every man who is able to do 50 must
take up tools in production Of the things
we need so badly. The voices Of many Of
our chief men have been raised in 4 plea
for total "ttort by all civilians to
strengthen MARITIME Industries on a sev-
en-day-Wl-k, 24-houl-day basis.
In the middle Of al Of this, the Ameri-
can Federation " Labor says to vital
skilled workers, You cannot work in
war industries unless YOU continue to
pay dues to us" And when the skilled
workers continue their refusal to pay dues
to union to which they do not want to
belong, the American Federation of Labor
proves Is point by forcing their discharge.
Who is wrong?
As for US, we cannot put any real con-
viction into an answer which blames any
body but the American Federation of
labor, and the public officials who per-
nit this rOttenneSS to exist.

a gang known to us as the William

quarters at Boise, Idaho, and Ontario,

them to be finest quality fur coats"
Mr.. Roahen wrote Montanans, Incor-
porated.
"This gang preys on farmers wives,

general looks to be sufficient, price
their garments at anywhere around

made around that price. If conditions

they smuggled the garments in from

that they trapped the fur and had the

The house cat coats are represented
as fine milk coats.
"Most of these coats are of even so
poor quality rabbit skin that seams
cannot be sewed, but must instead be
glued together If this fact happens
to be noted by prospective customer

the reply is that this is the new way
in which fur coats are made, that the
seams are 'valcanized'. The same

be purchased from local dealers at
