There are u mirrored place
cards that fit on silver and gold

was ready to go when the depres-
sion came, and Dad was afraid he
couldn't help me-so I had to plan
otherwise. The Navy seemed quite
interesting to me. I mentioned it
to Mother and Dad, and to my sur
prise after careful consideration
they encouraged the idea. So I
enlisted, and was sent to Norfolk
to the naval training station. All
together I spent 10 weeks there
with an interval for a tonsil oper-
alton and received 10 days leave
for a visit home before going to
the Pharmacists Mate S C h o o l at
Portsmouth. From there I went
to Newport, Rhode Island, to be
stationed at the naval hospital.
IT have never enjoyed the as
sociation of any group of fellows
as much as I did my shipmates
at Newport. Then I a sent to
the wal college dispensary which
was also good duty. I will always
hold the memories of these two and
a half years as the most enjoyable
and deepseated that I have ever
experienced.

years and married. Just to add

FRIDAY, JANUARY 3, 1941.
FOR DEFENSE PROGRESS

If the national defense program is
to make the greatest progress in 1941,
voluntary cooperation of government,
industry and labor must be the rule.
History shows that the maximum ma
tional progress has been made when
cooperation, freely and willingly
given, is permitted to develop and
operate.
To make cooperation function to
the best advantage, labor of course
must have voice in the formulation
and putting into effect of policies and
programs. This means labor repre-
sentation on all boards and agencies
having to do with defense production.
Even if compulsion should be in
voked in the conduct of the defense
program, there should be labor repre-
sentation, for best results.
AS William Green says in the Amer
ican Federationist:
'The right of labor to representa-
tion is an inalienable right if we are
to continue as a democratic people 1t
becomes even more imperative if we
must accept decisions holding in abey-
ance during the emergency our right
to strike.
Whatever the nature of industrial
control, representation for labor must
continue to contribute facts on the
needs and welfare of labor"

Alcohol and automobile driving

THE -
CHERRY TREE
Where with our Little Hatchet we tell
the truth about many things, sometimes
profoundly, sometimes fippantly, some
times recklessly.

1t might be we'll to get this off the
chest without further adoo. 1t might
be just as well to pay a little atten-
ton to the scheme lately advanced by
Mr.. Phillip Murray as his idea of how
to get our defense work done.
Mr.. Murray is thoroughly capable
and very sincere person. There seems
no need to debate that point
But maybe there are some
things that his best friends won't
tell him. So heave away and let's
haul the cat out of the bag and
see what kind of color is it's fur.
Mr.. Murray proposes that defense
jobs be run by joint committees hav-
ing equal numbers of labor and en-
ployer representatives, with one gov
ernment representative as some sort
Of presiding genius, or maybe umpire.
Sounds good, doesn't it? Yes,
friends, it does NOT.
II
Probably no scheme devised by man
could more quickly gum up AMI throw
into a stall our vital defense Jobs.
First of all, which labor? C.I O.,
or A. F. Of L.? Since the plan is Mr.
Murray's plan, he certainly means
CLIO.
| Second, which kind of employers ?
Bankers who put up the money? Head
management, which must run plants
to make money? Or engineers
Generally, he who pays the fiddler
calls the tune. You figure it out.

COMMENT ON WORLD EVENTS

"The British working men-the
wage earners of the lower and middle
classes-are the ones who have borne
the brunt of this wars terror and in
whose hands now rest the fate of the
empire. 1t is they, not the old leaders,
who cry out: This war will bloody
we'll be fought to finish
Britain may go down but no COM
promise settlement will be engineered
behind their backs. Their spirit is the
soul of England today-our guarantee
that if we send help, it will be put to
the use for which it was intended.
And they are in the saddle. When the
fighting is over and Britain has won,
they will remain in the saddle.
"Whatever the precise form of Eng
lands government, / should think
that you can put it down as fact that
one of her leaders will continue to be
Ernest Bevin, now Minister of Labor,
a trade union leader with record
and personality and capacity for gov
erning that has earned him the re-
spect for all England, including his
former political opponents"
After emphasizing that labor lead
ers, as representatives of the classes
that are fighting the war, are taking
an ever-increasing share of the bur-
den of government, Mr.. Bait adds:
There, then, is a phenomenon of
great Importance; if Britain is vic
torious it will be because of a new kind
of leadership leadership of the
working people-of the people who
stand the brunt of the struggle-out
of whose burning sacrifice has grown
this epic soul. British labor has been
hundred years trying by one means
and another to reach this leadership
now it has it."

WHAT NEXT?

The Canadian Government has OBJ
tanned rights to the new Vidal plastic
process for airplane construction and
has ordered two plastic fuselages.
These fuselages will be given destruc-
tion tests and if they are satisfactory,
airplanes with plastic fuselages, wings,
tail and other parts may be flying over
Canada by the end of 1941. Use of
plastics will sharply reduce costs and
increase output, Canadian officials say.
