Tednsters Fight
Minneapolis Reds
Drive Opens To Replace
Men Chartered By
| G.. /. Q.

Minneapolis, Minn.-The interna-
tional Brotherhood of Teamsters, hav-
ing purged their local ranks of Trots-
kyite Communists, formed a power
full front to maintain their organiza-
ton here after the CIO chartered the
expelled radicals.
Headquarters of Local 544 were
taken over by J. NJ Casey, Interna-
tional Representative of the Team
sters, after a court order forced the
Communists to vacate the premises
and produce the books and funds of
the local union.
From eleven surrounding States,
organizers and business agents of
Teamsters unions converged on Min
neapolis to assist the loyal member
ship in their fight to reestablish here
sound, American trade union.
1t Immediately became apparent
that the drive of the Dunn brothers
and other radical leaders to swing
the members of the Teamsters Union
into the CIO was doomed to failure.
kilograms and letters from all over
the nation poured in on President
Daniel j. Tobin commencing him for
his courageous stand against the
Communist and pledging him support.
President Roosevelt himself denounc-
ed the CIO for engaging in raiding
practices at this time when national
defense is the paramount considera-
ton. Newspaper editorials and COM
mentators also united in condemning
the CIO action.
Assisting Mr.. Casey in the local
AFL lineup to defeat the raid are
Thomas r. Neal, of Kansas City; H.
L. WoXberg, of Denver, Thomas
Flynn, of Indianapolis, William
Wright, of Minneapolis and st. Paul,
Bud Slaughter, of Duluth and Meyer
Lewis, West Coast representative of
the AFL.

Gulf agreement
Brings Increases
Asst. President Davis Does
Good Job Negotiating
Wage Contract

New Orleans, La-Wage levels in
Gulf Coast shipyards will be boosted
to an all-time high, under an agree
ment negotiated here at a conference
of representative of labor, shipbuild-
ers and the Federal government.
A major role in the successful bar
gaining was taken by Assistant Pres
ident Jasper n. Davis Of the Broth
erhood of Boilermakers, who headed
the labor Subcommittee which car
ried on the negotiations.
"Davis did an excellent job, and
the agreement as finally worked out
is something labor can be proud Of -
declared Joseph S. McDonagh, secre-
tary-treasurer of the A. F. of l..
Metal Trades Department, who also
played leading part in the confer
enceS.
Minimum rates for mechanics were
raised to SLOT an hour, as against
former scales ranging between SO and
81 cents. Common labor was increas-
ed to a minimum of 81 cents an
hour, from former levels as low as
33 cents. Double rates for overtime
were maintained on ship repair work
with exceptions in certain cases of
large overhauling jobs.
Owners of the 25 yards in the Gulf
area at first bitterly resisted the new
scales, complaining that they would
play hob with our Southern stand
ards," but they finally yielded.
The new wages are expected to in
crease the earnings of the Gulf ship
yard workers by $16,0OO,OOO a year,
McDonagh declared.

S+raigh+ From
Washington
BY STEPHEN Nj. YOUNG
Congressman at Large, Ohio

Washington.-Great Britain with an
annual income of less than half of the
income of the United States has ma
tional debt approaching two hundred
billion dollars. This nation with an
annual income of ninety billion dollars
can certainly stand national debt of
ninety billion dollars or more. Talk
of national bankruptcy is bosh. New
ertheless, Congress should cut nom
defense expenditures to the bone and
then scrape the bone.
Selective Service
We must keep faith with the men
in our armed forces. There is a
movement to require Selectees and
National Guardsmen now in camp to
remain for a period longer than a
year. There was at least an implied
obligation on the part of the Govern
ment to keep these young men in
camp for period of one year only.
1t is unthinkable that Government
dependant upon the faith of its citi-
zens, would consider breaking faith
with any group of its citizens. AS
matters now stand the young men Sc
lected for service and their families
have been the only ones so far who
have made any sacrifices in this emer-
gency.
Independent Air Force
Should not Department of Nation
al Defense be created with the Secre-
tary of National Defense in the cabi-
net? Then provide undersecretaries
of Aviation, Army and Navy Con-
gress is about to take the initiative
and scrap our Anticipated system of
subordinating aviation. Many Con-
gressmen believe that there should be
an independent air force. Air su-
premacy will mean much for the Sc
curity of the Americas. Of course
the Army and Navy should retain air
planes as an arm of these services
but flying general with a flying
staff should be in command of a great
striking air force that is now just q
skeleton but will presently be Amer
icas first line of defense.
Profits VS.. Losses
Sears, Roebuck and Company re-
ported profits of more than SO mil
lion dollars in 1910. Why? Because
they had big business and had sense
enough to fix their selling prices on
a profit basis.
The farmers of the United States
! lost billions in 1910. Why? because
although they had a big business
Congress did not have sense enough
or something, to fix profit prices for
them on home-consumed crops.
The irony Of it is that farmers, who
were losing money, were the biggest
customers of Sears, Roebuck & Co.
who were making big money from the
| farmers.

on strike recently. Fortunately

"SOUNDS" ADVERTISING
IN SKY BANNED

St. Paul, Minn.-When officials of
Albert Lea, Mimi, found local ordi-
nance ineffective in prohibiting
"sound" advertising by airplane, they
sought aid of the state legislature In
consequence, it is now a misdemeanor
by state statute to engage in adver-
tising through loudspeakers attached
to cruising planes. The statute, based
on evidence from the local officials
that plane advertising by sound Gre
ated noise nuisance and traffic
hazard, was approved by the 1941 leg
islature.

Eyes Are Vital Controls
Of Many Body Activities

More than 70 per cent of the mus
cular activity of the human body
results from impulses received from
the eyes, according to the Better
Vision Institute. At work and at
play the eyes play a dominant role,
and our muscular actions are influ-
enced strongly by the impressions
received by the eyes.
A survey of 20 common industrial
and Office occupations has shown
that the eyes are in serious work
three-quarters of the time. Improp-
er lighting conditions or incorrect
ed visual defects tend to impair the
efficiency of workers by fatiguing
the eyes. Experiments have dem
onstrated that visual fatigue slows
up body activity and is conducive
to errors. .
"If an office or a factory worker
gets three o'clock fatigue it would
be a good idea to check up on his
eyes," says the Institute. ''There
are millions of adult persons in the
United States having relatively mi
nor visual defects that are uncor-
rected. Such eyes may not cause
headaches but they frequently cause
three o'clock fatigue During the
last hour or two of the working day
the body of worker may be tired
because his eyes unassisted cannot
work an eight-hour day."

mind some sort of plan whereby
Toby was to get jolt.

"There'l be no fixing" said
Lloyd. And Toby nodded.
One or two of the group who had
listened in on the conversation were
a little doubtful. In the first place,
they didn't think Leo Chapman
would like the idea, and, in the Sec
ond place, they thought we'd have
pretty hard time explaining the sit
uation to the police in case Toby
were caught.
But Toby was adamant. In fact,
he was so cocksure of being able
to commit his crime and getting
away with it, that we all agreed
to let him try, hoping secretly that
he'd get caught and taught lesson.
The day set for Toby's attempt
at crime was Sunday. We all
agreed to stay away from the Chap
man place, giving him a clear field
to work in. When the Chapmans
got home we would accompany Toby
to their house, make sure he had
actually stolen some of their prop
erty and witness the payment of
the wager.

"Rivers, the cop on the beat, met

door. Toby's down at headquar-

Earl Colby leaped 10 MS feet.
"Good heavens! We'd better go

has gone far enough"

but it won't do any good. Toby,
I'm afraid is in for good long stay.
And I'm inclined to think this will
take some of the conceit out of him."
Early, who had had little taste for
this business in the first place, dis
played no little alarm. "But look

Lloyd seemed not at all put out.

CCTHE trouble" said Toby
Stark, with your modern
i criminal is his lack of con-
fidence in himself. The
fact that he is forever afraid of be-
ing detected, the fact that he usual
ly works under cover of darkness
a time when burglars are expected
to work-an combine to bring about
his apprehension by men who can
work in the OPEN"
Toby paused and lighted a ciga-
rette. A half dozen of us were
grouped on the veranda of the
Ridgeley Club and for a moment
after Toby finished talking there
was a silence. Toby is inclined to
be loquacious and at times extreme
ly boring. There are few subjects
on which he can't talk knowingly
and, much to our regret, lengthily.
"You talk like an experienced
hand at the game" said Lloyd
Barnard presently, and grinned.
Toby laughed. "I'd like to wager
/ could pull off a crime and get
away with it. Employing my own
methods, too"
Lloyd pulled at his pipe. "Why
not? I'll take your wager"
Toby slapped his knee. Ozone!
l have twenty-five dollars that says
I can break into house in broad
daylight, fill travelling bag with
silver, and get away with it."
Watching Lloyd closely 1 distinct
ly saw twinkle come into his eyes
and Immediately disappear again.
He said, twenty-five suits me,
Toby. But suppose you get caught?"
81 won't. But in case there's a
slip-up, you boys will have to fix it
up with the police. I'll tell you
what. Leo Chapman is up in the
mountains this week and with his
family. His place on the drive is
empty. That's the house l can
break into"
Again Lloyd's eyes twinkled, and
I knew a feeling of excitement. I'm

another factor entered the case"
another factor! Good heavens.
Lloyd, tell US what's happened!"
Lloyd lighted his pipe and smiled
pleasantly. well, to begin with,
Toby did pretty good job, accord
ing to his own telling and accord
ing to Rivers, the cop. About three
o'clock this afternoon Toby drove up
in front of Leo's place as smart as
you please, took a travelling bag
from the rumble seat of his car
and strobe up the walk. Acting
quite as if he owned the place he
removed bunch of keys from his
pocket-skeletons, of course-un-
locked the front door and stepped
inside.
Drivers saw him do this and
didn't get the least bit suspicious.
Rivers told me about it himself.
What happened after Toby got in
side the house was told me by the
culprit through the bars of his cell"
Lloyd paused and chuckled. aft
er Toby got inside the house," he
went on, che put pair of gloves on,
and fitted mask to his face. The
mask was just precaution in case
Leo had left any servants in the
house, and because he liked the idea
of wearing one. Q
However, the mask proved I'M
necessary. The house was empty.
Toby filled his travelling bag un-
molested And a half hour later he
stepped through the front door, first
wiping off the knob and removing
his gloves and swung jauntily down
the walk again, whistling merrily.
cat this very moment Rivers
rounded a corner on his return trip,
espied Toby coming down the walk
and waited for him at the gate"
Lloyd paused again. "Well?"
Earl asked.
WELL" Lloyd echoed. drivers
arrested Toby for breaking and en-
tering. And upon looking into the
travelling bag, the charge was sub
stantiated."
"But how" I asked, did Rivers
know"
How? Why, Toby had forgot
ten to remove his mask Except
for that, the crime would undoubt-
eddy have been successful"
For moment there was silence.
Then Earl said, But the new fac
tor? You said something about an
other factor in the case?"
Lloyd nodded THAT happened
later. Toby explained to the police
all about the joke and the bet he'd
made with me. They called me on
the phone and l came down and
confirmed his story. However, in
order to make sure everything was
as Toby had said, the police called
Leo Chapman at his place up in
the mountains and learned he
wasn't there at all. He'd gone on
an extended motor trip to Canada
and wouldn't be back for week.
"The police were willing to believe
our stories, but they weren't willing
to let Toby go until Leo returned.
There was too much evidence
against him. Furthermore, they adj
vised me that unless l made myself
scarce around the vicinity of the
station house, they'd be inclined to
lock me up with him as an ac-
complice"
Lloyd ended his tale, and there
was again that twinkle in his eye.
I wanted to ask him if he hadn't
known that Leo was going to take
that Canada trip. And wanted to
ask him also why he hadn't offered
to go bail for Toby, or if, instead,
he had bought the sergeant box of
cigars and told him to keep Toby in
storage for week.
But l didn't. Toby was in jail,
getting his jolt, and none of us were
very sorry.
