PRAYER WEEK OPENS NOV. 1T
Greater Unity, Less COn-
 trOversy in World Aim of Patriotic Committee

Patriotic Prayer Week, sponsored by the Patriotic Prayer Committee of Nutley, N. T., vii be celebrated throughout the nation, November 17 to g, it was announced this morning by w. Anson Halahan,. ex- ecutive director.
 Attorney Halahan's plea to all regarding this observance follows:,
 we are calling the Nation to Prayer during Thanksgiving Week. The Prayer seelcted: T Pray God to Watch Over America and Guide the President manifestly reaches all Creeds and persons. It is the coIn- mittee's purpose to request the governors of various states to make the Call as part of Thanksgiving proclaTnations.
 Reasons for Calling the Nation to Prayer are many. In discussions of the National efFort during the present emergency few words, if any have been written, or said, about Americas Spirituals Aims. We have heard so much about war materials -of billions of dollars necessary the resulting taxes-of strikes and strife in iYldustry-but nowhere any expression that America is serving a righteous cause; that she abhors aggression; that She is aiding the oppressed in other lands: that She, unselfshly, wants nothing for Her. self but the right to live.
 With the World fighting Goddess Nazism and Russia's Idealogy 6 factor, also, Americas Spirituality and Freedom of Worship must al- ways remain in our minds. Our very liberty was founded upon, and fought for, on this fundamental of our Constitution. We will have greater unity and less controversy If we will but ponder and pray.
 Won't your readers join us in Prayer? For their sake: their Country's sake: for Gods sake.
 A penny postal card from your readers and others they may inter- est, sent to the undersigned, will be made as part of teh request to the governor of your state.

League points out that many in
dustries not classified at present
az essential 10 defense may be
SO classified as the national pro
gram develops and the war crisis
intcnsifies The League also states
that as workers are drawn from
noil-dcfense occupations to fill
defense Jobs, openings will be
left vacant for unemployed work
ers, including thousands Of Ne
groes who cannot qualify for de-
fensc occupations.
The governments campaign
will also seek TO list employed
persons with experience and skill
not being used in any Of the fol
lowing jobs: aircraft manufactur-
ing, including aeroplane sheet
metal workers, aeroplane wood
workers and inspectors: aeronau-
tical engineering, ship-building
including carpenters, corkers,
marine machinists, etc; machine
shop and machinery manufactur-
ing. including machinists; tool
makers, lathe operators, die-mak
