How is 1t you noticed him, Bugs?"
"Oh, he's been bothering me a lot.
He wanted me to let him work in the
laboratory. AS an assistant He
claimed he was a good mechanic,
also good at radio. I gave him try
out. but he got in my way"
You don't Think"
That he's spy? No. He wasn't
at all interested in my work. 1 once
told him that in another year I'd
have radio control for an A-A gun
that would make the Luftwaffe look
like flock of wild ducks. You
know what he said?'
The Sheriff Is Confident.
What did he say, Bugs?' Phil
Howard asked, frowningly.
'Veretti said to me" Porter went
on, Ma jor, you take the glory Me,
III grab the cold cash. Money is a
lot more fun"
The two younger officers ex-
changed puzzled glances. Phil said:
Maybe Veretti had some idea of
stealing your idea and selling 1t.
He's smart. He'd know thered be a
buyer for an anti-aircraft gun con-
troll that was good"
But Porter shook his head in dis
agreement. Il baited him, left my
papers lying about, and he never
bothered them. AS said, he showed
no interest in my work"
What did he do while you had
him in the laboratory" McRugh
asked.
only one thing worth mention
ing. He cleaned up. He even re-
paired spot in the floor where the
concrete was broken. Oh, Veretti is
no spy. But I wouldn't like to guess
just what he is"
Sheriff Haskin came to the post in
midmorning. He was accompanied
by two deputies whom he left in his
car while he was in headquarters.
Haskin was old, in his late COS; he
had a scanned, leathery face, a droop-
ing mustache, pair of still bright
and cunning steel-gray eyes. He
spoke with drawl, asking questions.
He chewed tobacco steadily, consid-
ering
Reckon we'll get him" he said.
"Shucks, it was us that got Jake
Mingaloe 10 years ago. You recol-
lect, Jake, the big-time rumrunner.
Yeah, we got Jake right hereabouts. !"
But Phil walked out to the car
with him, and to Phil he showed his
shrewdness. There's something big
behind this" he drawled. Reckon

BOLSHEVIST REGIME
DANGER TO WORLD

New York City (ILNS).-Survival
of the Bolshevist (Communist) regime
in Russia after the war would be a
menace to the democratic world, a
group of 16 American, Russian, Ger
man and Austrian Socialists declared
here in a declaration on war aims and
peace terms, following discussions
under the auspices of the Rand School
of Social Science.
The declaration says that the inter
ests of the democracles as we'll as of
the Russian people demand the defeat
of the Nazi invaders and adds:
Establishment of freedom and de-
mocracy within Russia would be the
best means to a successful national
defense, Should this take place, Rus
sia will thereby become genuine ally
in the world struggle for democracy
and, when victory is won, will be an
invaluable partner in the building of
a peaceful and democratic world.
of, however, the Bolshevist regime
should survive the war, the demo-
cratic nations must recognize it as a
source of danger"

international Labor Organization
Active Despite War Handicaps,
Says Washington Office Head

International Labor Organization "is
that it represents an ideal expressing
the hope of men and women every
where throughout the world-the hope
of peace combined with social justice. !"
"The achievements of the |. L. o."
she added, "rest not so much on the
number of labor treaties adopted or on
the number of ratiications registered,
as in the leveling upward of social
standards which it has stimulated and
in the social consciousness which it
has awakened
Through it's tri-partite conferences,
representing governments, manage
ment, and labor, it has brought about
in groups with supposedly divergent
detectives recognition of community
of interests and the willingness to
work together.
"It is possible that in the postwar
period, the experience of the l. l.. O.
may have something of value to offer
toward the rebuilding of a democratic
world"

D. c. Labor Head Sees u. S. Officials
stepping Out Of Orbit to Attack
Union-Sponsored Safety Measure
John L0cher, President of Washington Central Labor
Un0n Gives Employees Compensation Commission
Tongue-L -Lashing-"Time We Had Protection

Washington, D. C. (ILNS). - John
Locher, president of the Washington
Central Labor Union, lashed out
sharply when the U. S. Employees
Compensation Commission reported to
Senate committee that bill spon-
sored by the c. L. U. to create an
accident prevention board for the Dis
trict of Columbia is ill-advised and
badly drawn and that the commission
is the proper agency to enforce such
law. The measure was passed unani-
mously by the House.
Federal officials are stepping out
of their orbit" declared Locher, "when
they interfere with responsible labor
group who are attempting to protect
workers on the job. This is a local
matter, and, as matter of justice, is
no business of any federal bureau"
First Bill Offered in March
The commissions report points out
that the bill now before the Senate
was introduced July Is, 1941, while
the commission had bill introduced
on June 6. Therefore, says the COM
mission, they were not only first in
the field but also that the C. L. u. bill
uses language from it's bill.
"The commission ought to know"
Locher adds, "that the first bill COW
ering this matter was introduced last
March at the request of the C. L. u,
and it was drawn with the assistance
of so-called experts in a federal de-
partment. This bill was found to be
entirely inadequate, and it was re-

RAILROADS, LABOR
GIVE SKILLED MEN
TO DEFENSE WORK

Washington, d. G. (ILNS). =. Co.
operation in meeting the shortage of
skilled men in defense industries has
been promised by representatives of
railroad labor and managements, in
conferences with officials of the Office
of Production Management. A pro-
spective shortage of 1,400,000 skilled
men in defense industries is estimated.
The O. P. M. asked that the railroads
furnish some 100000 skilled workers,
if this could be done without impair
ing transportation facilities, which are
recognized as vital to defense.
Explaining the plan, joint state
ment said in part:
Railroads and railroad labor will
cooperate with the Office of Produc-
tion Management in meeting a short
age of skilled men in defense indus
tries to the extent that they can do
so without impairing the ability of
the railroads to meet essential de-
mands of transportation.
Following meetings between rep
resentatives of the O. P. M, the rail
roads and labor organization most
concerned, Sidney Hillman, associate
director-general of o. p. M, has been
advised that the railroads and railroad
labor will do what they can to help
the general defense movements, keep
ing in mind their first duty to make
sure that there is no shortage of rail
road transportation during this emer-
gency.'
81. J. Pelley, president of the As
sociation of American Railroads, and
B. M. Jewell, president of the Railroad
Employees Department, American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor, have put the situa-
tion before the individual railroads
and the local organizations of the rail
road crafts affected, to determine what
can be done in each individual situa
ton toward releasing the defense in
dustries fully skilled men with proper
protection of their employment rights
on the railroads"
The statement said that men leaving
railroad employment temporarily for
defense jobs would be given protection
of seniority and other employment
rights and added:
"The position taken by the railroads
and railroad employees is in keeping
with their joint program of aid to ma
tional defense adopted in June, 1940,
at the very beginning of the defense
movement, in anticipation of possible
future shortages of skilled labor in
industries manufacturing defense es-
sentials."

written, with the assistance of the
District corporation counsel. This
draft of the bill, H. R. 5O03, also was
found unsatisfactory to the C. L. u,
and third draft was made, again
assisted by the corporation counsel,
and it is this third draft which ap-
parently came to the attention of the
commission"
Locher states that the C. L. U. COM
mittee which worked on this legisla-
tion sought advice not only from
safety experts in the U. S. Labor De-
partment but also from officials of the
U. S. Employees Compensation Com
mission.
Experts Aided Labor Group
"They helped US little at first"
he says, "but later became cold, and
we now can understand why. They
knew what we were trying to do, but
it was only by accident on July 25
that we discovered they were cutting

Melbourne.-At the proposal of the

transfer of 10000 additional men and
women to the war industries by the
end of this year. Training will be
speeded up, and will be completed in
three months instead of six, which
will double the number of semi-skilled

putting a bit at time on your
brush and then brushing the full
length of your hair. 1t makes your
hair glossy and does protect it.
Very important to your beauty
and health is the protection of your
eyes not only from the glare of
the sun but from the possibility Of
falling and piercing them with twigs
or the crust OF the snow. Designed
by skiers for skiers is a new, un-
breakable eye mask which is held
securely to your head by a small
adjustable leather strap. This mask
is so designed that it affords the
widest possible vision. as it has no
rim or nose bridge like the ordinary
sun glasses. The composition of
which it is made cuts glare amaz-
ingly and does not fog-which is
also a problem skiers must face.
If you must wear ordinary eye
glasses for vision this new eye
mask may be worn over your glass
es and thus affords you a splendid
protection.
Carry with you medicated eye
drops or a reliable eye wash, and
when you come in from the snow
wash out your eyes and lie down
for a few moments to rest them.
You may cover them with an ice
pack or moistened eye pads while
you rest. This simple routine re-
lieves the eyes from the strain
they have been under while you
were skiing or shedding.
