Joel had left the coffee on the

HONOR DRAFT MOTHERS
ON MOTHERS DAY

Mothers Day, 1941, has an especial
significance.
1t will mean more than ever before to
hundreds of thousands Of young men
who until now have more or less taken
mother for granted They have been
where she is, they have seen her daily,
they have considered her more of per-
manent fixture than anything else.
Now, for the first time, many of them
are away from home, in the rigorous life
of army camps. They are the draftees.
They know, now, that mother is no per-
manent fixture, to be considered as
part of the necessities that go with
everyday life.
It's hard on those who have been among
the most sheltered.
But it's harder on somebody else It's
harder on mother.
On this Mothers Day, the nation could
do no better than pay homage to the
women who have watched their sons
taken off to army camps, and who have
complained far less than military au-
thorities thought they were going to. The
mothers of America have already demon
strated courage and realization of ma
tional emergency that is overwhelming.
The fact that many of them realize this
is only the beginning makes their cour-
age even greater.
1t is perhaps fateful that national
observers of Mothers Day dates back
to other fateful times-to the days of
1914 when the world was aflame with
the conflagration of the first World
War Now, as then, mothers Of the land
are faced with a possible heartbreak
greater than any that can be felt on the
battlefields They, and not the men who
fight, may be the greatest sufferers if
war comes again to the United States.
On this Mothers Day let us each honor
his own mother, and remember her-but
let us every one honor, too, the mothers
of our young men, for they have won
the right to honor and admiration.

STRIKE LULl:
WILL 1T LAST?
Nevada State JournaD

Is there a lull in strikes affecting de-
Tense output, or does it just seem as if
there is lull, now that the mines have
reopened and the steel mills and railroads
are assured of obtaining a normal sup
ply of coal within a few days?
Although figures are not available
at the moment. there are probably fewer
strikes affecting fewer workers than at
any time this year. Whether this condi-
tion connotes a permanent improvement
in the labor situation it is too early to
predict. Everything seems to hinge on
what few leaders decide is best.
1t has become plain that the strikes
of the last few months were mostly in
spired by radical leaders, with dissatis-
faction on the part of workers playing
American worker is rarin' to go on this
defense thing He does not want to
strike although he wants to retain the
right to strike and there is no reason
why he should not. He knows that
strikes are unnecessary, that there is a
common ground on which legitimate dis
putes over wages, hours and working
conditions can be adjusted in times of
emergency.
The rank and file of the workers in
defense industries and the public as
we'll look to the President and those in
high places in the government to bring
about the adjustment of industrial dis
putes. The workers will follow the Pres
ident before they will follow John l..
Lewis. Industrial management will fol-
low the President once the administra-
ton shows that it intends to act.
The President has called for step
ping up of production all down the line
and he indicated in the coal strike that
he no longer depends on the labor de-
partment to iron out disputes or bring
about settlements. 1t is hoped in all
quarters that he will give the mediation
board the necessary authority to act
without labor department interference.
If he does congress can drop its anti
strike and ''cooling-off" bills.
Whether the present comparatively
calm situation on the industrial front is
merely a hiatus, or whether the strike
epidemic has run its course, the next
few weeks will reveal.

BRIDGES DEFENSE FOLLOWS
COMMUNIST PATTERN

Perhaps Harry Bridges is not in fact
a Communist, but the attorneys who are
defending him in deportation proceed
ings at San Francisco certainly have
taken leaf from the Communist text
book of propaganda in conducting his
defense.
The attorneys, in fact, seem more in
terested in diScrediting the United
States government and its agencies than
in defending their client. 1t may be just
coincidence that it is a general practice
of Communists to create martyrs" as
pegs upon which to hang propaganda
discrediting all organized law enforce
ment bodies.
This week Maurice Cannalonga, a wit
ness in the deportation hearing, disap-
peared. Knowing the tactics we have
seen some radicals use, we would be in
clined to the belief that individuals with
distinctly red tinge had much to do
with his disappearance.
But not according to Bridges attorney,
Richard Gladstein.
Gladstein charged at the hearing that
the FBI had driven the witness to flight.
He declaimed that Cannalonga was "in
mortal terror of the FBI," and that fed
eral agents had threatened him with 20
years in prison for a crime he did not
commit If ne refused to testify as they
wanted him to.
The sckening part of it is that Glad
STEMS charges patiently were made for
nothing but publicity purposes Had he
been arguing before a jury, he might be
excused for attempting to use an old
courtroom trick to free his client. But
he knew that such oratory could not
