THOSE who clamor so loudly for war either
i don't know the facts or simply not
good American citizens. Will, therefore, those
well-meaning but uniformed tear page from
history and note the following:
Said Winston Churchill regarding Amer
-icas participation in the-Nefld War-tGon--
gressional Record, June 10, 1880:
II think that England should pay every
single dollar she has borrowed from your
country Omitted States). But before paying
in full she should he allowed to deduct half
the cost of all the shot and shell she fired at
the Germans fran the time America declared
war until she put soldiers in the front line
trenches over year later.
Americas entrance into the war was dis
astrous moi only for yonr country, but for the
Allies weii.=because had you stayed at
home and minded your own business we would
have made peace with the Central Powers i'm
the Spring of 1917 and then there would have
been no collapse in Russia, followed by com
munism; no breakdown in Italy, followed by
fascism, and naziism would not at present be
enthroned i'm Germany"
Now if there is any doubt in your mind
about the truth of this assertion, read the
following headlines from the Chicago Amerl-
can of Nov II, 191S-Armisticc Day:
Fighting Has stopped" and Everything
for Which America Fought Has Been Accom-
plished-WisOn." Also RED Flag Over
Kasers Palace"
Is this the democracy for which our
boys paid with their lives and for which they
are again being called upon by the same
group of warmongcrs who got us into the
World War, to fight to uphold democracy?
England is no democracy and never has been.
The United States isn't a democracy. it is
republic What do they mean democracy?
Check carefully the background of every
who is hollering loudest for war. Find
out what selfish motive for personal gain
prompts them,
Billions for defense yes but not one thin
dime to again make the world safe ~ for
democracy"
Isn't it treason to sell out ones country to
ANY foreign power?
Let's snap out of our long slumber and
give our red-blooded Amercanism little
chance to work, The pen is mightier than
the sword SO let's use it like we've never
used it before in flooding our public servants
in Washington with DEMANDS that we be
Kept out of war.
Insist that the lease-loan bill be killed at
once lest we be involved in a foreign war
where we don't belong and which this time
we cannot hope to win.

sioners of the bootleg" milk scandal
of two years ago and said there
would, be an invitation for repeti-
ton of such cases If the field were
thrown open.
Mr.. Montgomery advised the
Commissioners to read a lengthy
printed statement of the Agricul-
ture Department on the dangers of
trade barriers"
He demanded to know why public
health standards of the District
would be jeopardized If the District
adopted the Grade A milk system
of the United States Public Health
model code and specified that no
milk be admitted unless the dairy
farm received a 80 per cent rating
as certified by the District or State
medical authorities.
On the latter point, Health Off,
Ger George C. Rutland has argued
that he would not be in real con-
troll over inspection work If the
farms were too far removed from
the District. He and his assistants
have insisted 200 miles was the
workable" limit for such home
base inspection.
Sees Conflict in Position.
Mr.. Montgomery said that when
the Agriculture Department was
considering recently the requested
increase in producer prices, local
milk producers testified they needed
the price boost because of the costs
resulting from District milk rules.
Now, he asserted, they have re-
ceived the price boost and are in
sisting that District milk require
ments should not be reduced.
Earlier Harry S. Wender, vice
president of the Federation of Cltl-
zens' Associations, voiced fears as
to the adequacy of supply to meet
expected further increases in Wash
ingtons population, declared Wash
ington's health standards should
not be sacrificed, at any cost, but
that the Federation would like
some moves made to reduce retail
prices and questioned whether some
of the milk rules were not arbitrary
and unnecessary" He added that

Unions Denied Use
OF Radio Facilities,
{. |. 0. Complains
Newspapers Stations
Discriminate Against
Labor, F. c. c. Is Told
Rv CARTER BROOKE JONES.

The Congress of Industrial Organ
izations intervened today in the
investigation of newspaper owner
ship of radio stations through a
statement to the Federal Communi-
cations Commission by Allan S.
Haywood, director of organization,
complaining of discriminatory de-
nial of the use of radio facilities
Mr.. Haywood told the commission
the c. I. o. welcomed any lnvestlga-
ton that will throw light on pro-
cedures or controls in radio broad
casting that may have an adverse
effect in restricting freedom OF the
air"
The national organizer of the G.
I. o. charged that some of the more
glaring instances of discrimination
against labor unions have been COM
mitted by newspaper-owned sta
tions."
Labor Alleges Bias.
The C. I. O., he added, has de-
termined that there is a general
feeling in labor ranks, buttressed by
many practical experiences, that
most of the daily press is biased
against labor because of its big busl-
ness ownership, because OF its
dependence upon advertising and
because of the editorial policy of the
particular publishers
Mr.. Haywood cited as ''one of the
most serious cases Of denial Of labor
right to the air" the reported refusal
of Station KYA in San Francisco,
owned by the Hearst newspaper in
terests, to renew its contract for the
daily C. I. o. program there.
Declaring he did not mean to
imply that this alleged discrimina-
ton was perpetrated entirely by
radio stations associated with news
papers, he added that there was a
general feeling in labor ranks that
our constitutional rights to freedom
of speech and freedom of press are
severely curtailed by present policies
and methods of control of both press
and radio"
Publishers Press Pleas.
Testimony concerning the general
policy of allowing newspapers to
own radio stations was interrupted
earlier to allow two West Virginia
publishers to present specific evi-
dence in support of their pending
applications to construct radio
stations.
The witnesses were w E. Inger-
soil, business manager of the
Parkersburg News and Sentinel, and
Charles L. Long, vice president and
assistant publisher of the Wheeling
1ntelligencer and News Register.
These newspaper representatives,
called by James S. McCluer. Parkers-
burg attorney, explained that they
regarded radio station as a neces-
sary modern adjunct to a progress
sive city daily. Their permits, like
numerous others, have been held
up by the commission until the ques-
ton at issue is determined.
Mr.. Ingersoll explained that, al
