l,2OO SOLDIERS
 PAYING PENALTY

Memphis, Tenn, July 8 8--(UP)- Twelve hundred soldiers discover to- day the penalty for whistling and ''ya-hooing" at girls in shorts. They were afraid 1t would turn out to be a 150-mile hike.
 The soldiers made the mistake of doing their wiliStling and 'ya. hooing" in the presence of Lieut. Gen. Ben Lear, commander of the Second army, who rose from private and is tougA man.
 General Lear was playing golf Sunday afternoon. on the course nearby was a girl foirsome. A 45- car troop caravan rolled by on the road. The soldiers spotted the girls and there was a tremendous bed1aIn of whistling and cat-calling. Gen. eral Lear. bristling with indigna- tion, went over to remorstrate and was greeted with a number of wise- cracks. The soldiers didn't recognize lieutenant general in the angry, elderly golfer.
 The troops, a battalion of the 10th Quartermaster Regiment, 35th Di- vision, were en. route from Inaneu- vers to their station at Camp Rob- inSon, Ark. When they arrived Sum day evening, they found orders waiting for them to return at once to Memphis and report to General Lear.
 The officers were on the carpet yesterday and the nature of their dressing down was not revealed. The soldiers were hillete1 at the Mem phis airport and this morning will be required to pass through Mem- pfis ''in a more orderly manner .H The soldiers were afraid that the passing through this time would be afoot and that they would continue afoot until they reach Camp Robin son.

towns, condemned to stand in the
years to come as silent and deserted
reminders Of our improvidence.
"Study, planning and coordination
of labor supply are no less important.
Well-planned development of indus
trial activity for defense purposes, if
thoroughly coordinated with realistic
plans for the fullest utilization Of the
available labor supply and with de-
velopment of sound and permanent
housing facilities and Of health and
welfare services, can assure stable
and healthy community growth in the
future A haphaZard ALLEGATION of
defense work, on the other hand, will
not only make the expenditures for
machinery, equipment, factory build
ings and temporary shelter costly and
wastcful, but will serve to set off a
flow of homeless and destitute migra-
tory labor on scale no nation has
yet seen.
Careful planning of the post
emergency relief problem should be
begun at once if the burden of un-
employment and dependency in the
transition from a war economy to a
peace economy is not to become in
Supportablc.
"Our great social security program
should also undergo a careful revi-
sion so that through adequate tax
contributions during the emergency
period of intensive business activity
sufficient reserves could be accumu-
lated. This would make possible in
creased unemployment benefits over
longer benefit periods in order to sus-
tain the purchasing power at the be-
ginning Of the post-cmcrgency period
and to cushion the shock Of sudden
dcmobilization Of the defense indus
tries and the mass unemployment
among defense workers."

for the peaceable adjustment of diff
ferences.
"To be sure, as in other human in
Stitutions, serious faults exist in some
areas in the labor movement including
racketeering in some crafts and indus
tries, principally in building and SER
vice unions in some of our larger
cities, and restrictions and juris-
dictional difficulties which cry aloud
for remedy and more democratic con-
troll from within the movement.
con the whole, the labor union
movement stands as one Of the great
est achievements of American democ-
racy, giving to the common man a
voice in his own economic destiny. 1t
would be a tragedy indeed, if in the
name of defense of democracy the
democratic rights of labor were to be
abrogated.
Compulsory arbitration would be a
step toward a totalitarian form of
government in this country. We must
indeed be on guard against losing
democracy in the name of defense of
democracy.
More Unions Urged
"1n fact" the speaker concluded,
"the only way to increase enthusiasm
for democracy is to have more of it,
not less of it. We must have indus
trial and economic democracy as well
as trying to retain democratic pro-
cedures and powers in political ad-
ministration.
eve must have more labor unions,
more employers associations, more
farm organizations, and particularly
more consumers co-operatlves so that
the ownership and earnings of indus
try can be spread to larger numbers
Of our citizens, their purchasing power
| improved, and production and con-
sumption maintained at high levels
with the consequent abolition of un-
employment.
"By remaining out of war and by
building more democratic life in
America, we can lead the way toward
world reconstruction and a democratic
world"
Myers, for many years industria
secretary of the Federal Council OF
Churches, was formerly labor man
ager in factory, and is author Of 8
recent book entitled, "Do You Know
Labor" which treats with all phases
Of the labor union movement. 1t was
published by the National Home Ii
brary Foundation Of Washington.

Strikes Found

fense, disclosed that the number of
man-days idle, due to strikes, ac-
counted for less than one-fourth of
one per cent of the total number of
man-days worked.
Record Held Remarkable
The report continued:
"For example: In industries max
ing the engines and machine tools so
vital to our national security, there
was only one day Of idleness, result
ing from strikes, for each 1,S0O man
days Of production. In other words,
this means that in such industries
strikes in 1910 were responsible for
one day of idlencss for every six
years Of work.
"This is remarkable record. 1t
Is all the more remarkable in view
Of the fact that the period it covers
has witnessed a great rise in business
activity, a quckcninE of the entire
industrial process, a vast expansion
of employment, together with an in
crease in the stresses and strains
which always go with adjustments
to new conditions and new personnel
from straw boss to president, from
learner to fulI-nedged craftsman.
"Amcrican industrial history over
the past lOO years shows that amy
such period is generally marked by
an increase rather than decrease in
the number Of strikes.'
The report, in a discussion of ma
tional morale, said that the "sclf-dis-
ciplnc Of a free and independent peo-
pie will always enable them to out
think, out-producc and out-liVe any
system of totalitarian slavery"
