mouth in complaint, the penalty
is Imprisonment, torture, and per-
haps death. And the fate of la
Dor in the conquered nations is
even worse. Something like a
million people have been slaugh-
tered in cold blood, many of
them without any accusation
whatever, but simply because
they have been seized as hos
tages for the actions of other
people. Hundreds of thousands
have been deported to hard labor
in foreign places. In short, ev-
erything that we in the United
States know as the rights of
citizens have been annihilated
wherever the Axis heel has trod.
We simply have to win this war,
and we cannot do it without hea-
Wy sacrifices by every man, wo-
man, and child. 1t is not enough
that we do our days work; we
must understand this crisis and
what 1T means to us, and help to
keep up the courage of our fami-
lies and our friends. We must do
our part in avoiding any sort of
quarrel and dispute inside our
country.
And finally, we must turn ov-
er to our government every dol
lar that we can spare to go to-
ward war expenses. Nobody is
asked to make a gift. Our gov
ernment gives us War Bond
and in that bond it means what
it says-that the debt will be a
source of income to us after
peace has come, and in security
for ourselves and our families.

Gold Should Not Be
Thicker Than Blood
By K. ID. CRAMER
editor, Minneapolis Labor
Review

MINNEAPOLIS, MINI, Aug.
3O-If you could save and accum-
ulate all the money in the world
and Hitler and his partners in
crime won the war you would
still be a slave.
That is something every mem
Der of organized labor should re-
alize. The money you invest in
war bonds will help to save your
nation and your union and keep
you free. The money you hang
on to, above a decent living, is
the money that may enslave you.
A union that had no stated
time for the payment of dues and
no definite amount of dues to be
paid would be rather sickly af-
fair. 1t would win no strikes, it
would obtain no very alluring
wage scales, nor put into effect
very beneficial working condi-
tionS.
Uncle Sam is depending on
members of organized labor, out
side the armed forces, to assist
materially in financing this war
against slavery and dictatorship.
Be as right with Uncle Sam as
you are with your union.
Let him know he can depend on
you. Do this by pledging to in
vest in War Bonds every pay day
to the amount of at least 10 per
cent of your wages. Invest in
War Bonds will help win the war
as many as possible. Investing in
today and protect you against
poverty and want in the future.
If Uncle Sam fails in this cru
sade to perpetuate freedom your
union is through and you will be
enslaved. Members of our Arm
ed Forces are enlisted for the
duration. Enlist your dollars to
fight to victory by pledging an
investment in War Bonds every
payday.
Gold should not be thicker than
blood.
Labor's in the armed forces, on
the assembly line and Labor's
damned well got to be No. / in

The Methodists of the Ohio Con-
ference have launched a million
dollar pension fund campaign for
the benefit of the retired ministers,
intensifying Oct. l and terminal
ing Nov. Is. In addition to the re-
tired pastors, the pension fund
cares for a number of orphaned
children of ministers, ranging from
the ages of five to II years old.
A large number of widows of min

the greater part of the state of
Ohio and is the largest body of it's
kind in the world, including 600
ministers 1000 churches, and a
membership of over 281 900 Metho-

The Ohio Conference cane has
been in circulation among the re-
tired Methodist ministers for the
past three quarters of a century.
It is held in succession by the old

Dawson to the old Cincinnati Con-
ference, and since that time has
passed through a dozen retired
ministers possession.
Today, it is held by the Rev. G.

resides with his son-in-law, DR.. C..

in many centuries, and it seems
to me that the threat is greater
to American workingmen than to
anybody else in the country.
The consequences of victory
by the Axis powers is beyond any
power of our imagining. The
workingman in Germany today is
a slave in the literal sense of that
word. He works long hours on
pay which barely brings him an
existence. He works where he
is told, when he is told, and how
he is told, and if he opens his
