SABOTAGE

Sabotage comes from the French
"Sabot" for shoe. 1t originated when
a worker in a factory placed his shoe in
the machinery which stopped produc-
ton. 1t is a far cry from that day to
the present when we hear so much
about sabotage.
Sabotage, in this country today,
means anything which impedes the de-
fense of our country. We are going
to talk about it as it most vitality
affects our group in this country. That
is through employment.
Only by total employment can a
country wage total war. Russia,
larger country than ours, takes
account of every gallon of oil to see
that it shall not fall in the hands of
the enemy How much more precious
is the product of the minds and hands
Of every skilled worker in our smaller
country.
This country, too, recognizes that it
must concern itself with it's total re-
sources. Examples of this are the
proposed gasless Sundays in June,
which did not materialize, and, more
recently, "jack rabbit" starts by autos
which waste gasoline. But compare
this waste to that of our employers
refusing to hire competent workers
simply because of color.
So this day instead of an employee
committing sabotage, it is the employ
ers who are wasting the nations most
valuable resources both human and
material to a gross extravaganza
through discrimination. This is up
