Real Test Coming

Almost without fail every section of the
East Coast that has held trial black-outs
has reported complete success. That's as
it should be for in almost every instance
the steps to be followed were carefully
worked out and checked. Everyone was
prepared for the black-out when it came.
AS a result the entire defense organiza-
ton knew what was coming and what
to do. It might be bit different if there
was no advance notice and black-out
was called for at moments notice. That
would be the real and proper test.
It will show, no doubt, in communities
like Waterbury that what defense Off
Gals have been complaining about is quite
true, namely, we need more volunteers 10
fill the various posts that are necessary
to complete set-up. Those now man.
ming the various posts and performing
the various functions required are doing
a fine Job, but most of them are business
men and women who are doing such work
in their spare moments after their daily
work is finished. To anplify their serv-
ices there must be many more volunteers
so that there will be constant 24-hour
protection against any possible attack.
Therefore, it may be that when Wa
terbury is subjected to surprise black
out there is apt to be little confusion
in manning the various posts throughout
the city and in obtaining prompt reports
on the progress of the black-out. How
ever, we rather imagine that the response
win be surprising by the willingness OF
everyone concerned to make 1t as sue
cessful as is possible under the clrcum-
stances. Any community that has had
the gospel of being prepared against any
thing preached to it so earnestly OF late
days can't make too many mistakes. Wa
terbury will do good job when it is
called on to black-out at any time.

A lot of motorists will be driving their
cars on the bare rims pretty soon OF 60
ing afoot if the drastic announcement of
Price Administrator Leon Henderson
comes to pass. We're inclined to think it
will, but we also believe therell be more
walking than driving. The latest pro-
nouncement is to the effect that tires
may have to be stripped from the cars OF
private owners in the next two years in
order to continue an about defense eff
fort. Presumably these tires will go to
those who are most vital to the defense
effort.
Cars that are used for pleasure only and
which can be safely stored for long per-
iodS will, no doubt, be the first ones to
be stripped. After that, if the need of
more tires continues to make itself felt,
then the government will pick away at
those on the fringe of the defense effort.
Finally therell be nothing left with tires
save cars that are absolutely necessary to
uninterrupted defense production. That's
not a too pleasant outlook, but it certain
ly is a more pleasant one than having
Nazi or Jap bombs raining down on us.
According to present estimates the tires
on your car right now are the last you'll
be able to obtain for at least three years.
And that naturally depends on the course
the war takes in the coming months. 1t
could be that German or japanese sue
cesSes in the several theaters of war would
further curtail various raw materials
which are now curtailed. On the other
hand an about effort throughout 1912
should go a long ways towards offsetting
the present Axis gains and certainly
would put the united nations in posi-
ton to apply the finishing touches on the
enemy in 1913.
All of which means that good patriots
land aren't we all?) should take the lat
est possibility in stride.

No Overtime Pay on Bataan

How many hours week do the boys on
Bataan work? If the Japs attack on
Sunday do you think the American troops
demand double time for overtime? May
be some of MacArthur's men don't like
one of his sergeants. Do you believe they
pull the trigger fewer time per hour
because Of that peeve?
The answers come quick and easy. DO
they come the same way in the battle OF
Detroit? On that vital production front
we have recently witnessed these sicken--
ing spectacles: A great squabble about
double time for Sunday work. Several
sIowdownS in a bomber parts plant be-
cause some OF the men got sore at one
of their fellow workers
When will we Americans awake to the
tragic absurdity of the 40-hour week in
wartime? viii we awake after the war
is lost, when, as in France today, men
will labor untol hours for pittance that
amounts to slavery under foreign mas
ter? Many peacetime proponents Of the
short work week are now its loudest crit
les. War changes many things and this,
they rightly maintain, is one Of them.
When Congress voted the wage-hour
The Waterbury Democrat. [volume] (Waterbury, Conn.) 1917-1946, 1942-03-07

law, the nation understood that one of
It's aims was limitation on hours, to
spread employment. The goal now IS to
get more - not less work from every
American. 1t may be contended that the
40-hour week is no restriction, that all
an employer has to do is to tell the men
to work, say, 48 hours and pay them
time-and-a-half for the extra 8 hours.
This so per cent pay increase adds to
the manufacturing cost. It means big
ger war bill which the public--an Of us
has to pay And this in the hour of peril
when we are all being told that we must
sacrifice. The government urges the
employer to work longer hours as patri-
otto contribution, then insists that he pay
a SO per cent penalty on overtime.
How do American workers feel about
it? This much is certain: No truly
American worker would bubble about
time-and-a-half If he knew his extra
hours might help even up the battle on
Bataan. The work week is between So
and 60 hours in Great Britain. It is be-
tween go and 70 hours in Germany. This
is war; Every American must work as
many hours as compatible with maxi
mum efficiency. He should be paid for
every hour, at his regular pay rate. The
40-hour week overtime penalties - like
excessive profits are holding back the
war effort. For the duration, they must

A Ships Testament

Always men have thought Of ship as
being more than a conglomeration of
wood and steel So strong and dependable
and alive it seems that men endow it with
personality; SO graceful and lovely, that
men feminine that personality, and use
the pronoun "she." The U. S. S. Augusta,
sturdy cruiser of the battle fleet, has now
added to that tradition of personality by
drawing will.
Naval vessels have bank accounts, rep
resenting profits from operation OF the
from time to time for improvements and
additions to the equipment. The Augusta
now directs in her will that should she be
a total loss, her funds shall go to the Navy
Relieve Society," Thus ship has been given
not only personality, but heart.

which left no doubts about who

NOTE - Two undercover fac
tors were responsible for this vote,
which probably did not reflect
the general sentiment of the
country. One was a tremendous
pressure drive by the ALL and
CLIO in the district of each con-
gresham. This was particularly
effective with Republicans. who,
, with their eyes on next falls con-
gressional elections, gre very po-
litical-minded. Second, was the
failure of the farm bloc to sup
port the bill because 1t feared la
Dor reprisals against the parity
and other Doodle grabs which the
farm bloc is after. The bloc has
been counted on to kill the 40
hour week, but the laborites served
blunt notice that If the bill was
passed, labor would ak the farm
ers. Result, The farm bloc ran
for cover and the bill went into
the ashcan.

Far out in front on donation of blood for

bank is Cleveland, where the thousandth
pint of blood in II days was just given.
And that thousandth donor? DR.. F. S.
Koppel, who left Germany as an enemy
of Hitler and Hitlerism in 1888 after prac-
ticing medicine in Cologne for 18 years.
Hitler's slogan is blut und boden--
blood and soil. Well, here is some good
German blood being offered on new
and different soil to defeat the man who
ranted of blood. Not the blood, we believe
here in America, but the cause for which
it is shed; not the soil as such, but the
use that is made of that soil as home
for free men.
