Detroit Must Prepare

THERE is little use dipping ourselves about the pregns-
i blity Of Detroit enemy air raid goal
Detroit is a natural" and if the Axis powers have
any intention of bombing American industrial centers,
this city must be high on their list.
Otherwise they would be downright stupid and they
haven't been stupid in their military schemes thus far
Yesterday in Battle Creek, Lieut. Gen Ben Lear
lone of the most practical of military commanders
asked what he thought of the possibility of Detroit
being bombed Here is his reply:
With tanks. arpanes and guns being manufactured
In Detroit figure out for yourself. If YOU the
enemy. where would YOU bomb? How far is it from
Detroit TO the Atlantic Ocean and how far TO Hudson
Bay"
The realistic General Lear concluded with the follow
ing terse comments:
Il believe the people of Detroit to he thinking people
who figure these things ont for themselves Now
is the time for civilian units organize and train for any
emergency that may arise"

Production in u. S. Hinges
On Labor's New Status
BY DOROTHY THOMPSON

TWO outstanding events Of the
i last week are Donald Mel
sons speech and Philip Murray S
wholeheartcd reaction 10 II.
Mr.. Nelson asked for an i'm
mediate y per cent or more IN
increase in production and pro-
posed collaboration between
management and labor in the
factories.
He proposed a Joint committee
Of labor and management 10
meet and oVCrtop quotas as
signed 10 the factories, with
schedules for every division OF
the work laid out on score
boards. and competition between
workers for honorS and rewards
offered the working soldiers OF
the factory front.
And he also asked that ma
chincry he set up whereby midi
vidual men in the factory could
submit suggestions. which might
then be spread throughout indus
try. for more production.
This plan has been accepted in
toto by Philip Murray of the
Go.

" been most worriSOme, and
there have been two approaches
10 a solution of IT, The first was
by legal restrictions and force.

The second possibility involved
a change IN the mind Of labor
and management That was what
the President hoped for.
ON the side Of labor, as far as
il is represented by the Go,
there Is acceptance Of a new
attitude
Mr.. Murray has unCOndltlon-

Of his unions To cooperate vol

Donald T. Pomeroy points this
