WARCALL
U. S. WORKERS

associate director Office of
Production Management:
"War is upon us.
"Our armed forces are already en-
gagged at sea and in the air, waging
war with courage and faith in the
cause of freedom-as well as with
guns and ships and planes.
Labor must meet the challenge
with similar courage and faith, and by
supplying more guns and more ships
and more planes in steady, ever
increasing flow until the war is won
ALREADY the guns you have made
and the planes you have built and the
ships you have launched are blasting
the foe, in defense of our shores.
"Our victory depends on greater and
yet greater production from the work
shops of democracy.
To-day our soldiers, sailors, airmen
and industrial workers share the front
line of battle. Our fighting forces
rely upon your skill and your energy
for the implements of war. The work
ers of this nation will prove that free
Americans can outproduce, as they can
Outright, any combination of slave
peoples.
"Ours is sacred task to which we
must consecrate mind and heart and
hand. We will have to do the best
possible job-on the assembly line, in
the pit, at the throttle.
"No obstacles must be allowed to
interfere with our war effort. We will
face hardships and make sacrifices.
"This is war-a peoples war-a war
of the common man against old tyran-
nies and new barbarisms.
Labor is more united than ever be-
fore in this great war undertaking.
All labor has pledged its fullest CO.
operation and participation.
"Ours is a labor movement unswerv-
ing in it's devotion to the aims of free
dom and in it's determination to keep
America strong and free.
Joined in this high purpose, labor
can help not only to crush the Axis
aggressors, but also to build a new
world of peace and security.

tiny is in the balance. Labor will
never fail the cause of freedom"
