The "scabs" would never con-
sent again to work for the
"pauper's wages" so long en-
dured at Egry, yet they must, it
seems, continue to bite the hand
that gained them an extra loaf of
bread for their table.
We have on the night shift, one
Mae Weimer, who no doubt,
would just love to work for $12.OO
a week, just so the boss would
be pleased. We think it's fine to
be charitable too, but not to the
extent of going hungry. Perhaps
we could arrange a nice budget
for Mae on how to "Starve, very
painfully, on Egry's former
wages" Just in case Mae hasn't
heard, Sugar, and all the things
that are nice," have gone up in
price.
Naturally, Mae thinks a cut in
wages is therefore essential. Who's
nuts? We wonder! Mae, has quite
a few pals who seem to think as
she does. Now, we are asking our
fellow workers at Egry, do you
want to keep on living, or just
keep on working? You've been
working for years, prior to the
CLIO in your shop, for practically
nothing.
Girls, watching the "kids next
door" made more money than
you did then. Do you want to 60
back to those days? We don't
think so. Yet, there are workers
at Egry who have received their
raise and everything, but fail to
see the necessity of joining the
Union that secured it for them.
They not only fail to see it, but

Urges Equal Pay For
Equal Work

Miss Mary Anderson, Director
of the Women's Bureau, U. S.
Department of Labor, speaking at
a regional meeting of the Catholic
Conference on Industrial Problems
on March 26th, said: The practice
of unequal wage standards for
men and women on the same type
of jobs is one of the grimmest
realities facing women industrial
workers in wal production. IF the
double wage standard is permitted
to exist, it operates like a two
edged sword, cutting detrimentally
into women's interest and working
hardships for men, wherever the
two sexes may be in competition
for Jobs"

It is a sorry plight indeed, when "scab" workers at the Egry

MISUNDERSTANDING
CHAPTER XIV

Ruck heard the shouts of the
soldiers down below. He saw one
of them run around the corner
of the hotel and come back al
ter a moment with rope, which
he tied around the old mans
waist. An almost irresistible
urge came over him to fling up
the sash and shout at them to
stop. But caution prevented him.
It would never do to risk the
fate of a whole village for the
sake of one old man.
They tied the rope around the
old mans waist and dragged
him through town behind them.
When they got to his cottage
they broke down the door,
which he had locked, and drag

mole in the outer harbor. Smoke
poured out of chimneys at night
and settled over the streets like
gray mist in the morning. II
began TO rain a dreary, inter-
minable downpour. sweeping in
winddriven sheets from the
hills.
About the village, hope had
given way to dull apathy.
More than half the boats in har-
Dor had been taken down the
coast several weeks before.
There was no fishing done, and
the canning factory had stopped
working as we'll, not only be-
cause of the dearth of supplies,
but also, as the commandant
said, because the men could no
longer be trusted. There was no
coal to be had at any price, and
in the damp houses, where blan-
kets and heavy coast had been
taken for the German armies
weeks before, it was an eternal
struggle to chop enough wood to
keep the fires going.
Every night at midnight, up
on the dark plateau where the
wind whined and cut, some lone.
ly man would sit crouched in the
snow, with a strong light in the
pocket of his great coat, and
binoculars in his hand, watching
out to sea. And at four in the
morning he would rise, stiff and
cramped with cold, sweep the
bare horizon for one last time,
then start his long and hopeless
trek back into town. Sometimes
it was little Kjerlof, the ner-
vous, questioning farmer who
had led Sverre Hammer over to
Sweden two months before.
More often it was Mortensen
from the farm up near the sac
ter. IF my son, Trygve, can lie
in prison." he said, II can do
this work to help him get free"
Mortensen was not a strong
man. They wondered if he could
stand the cold nights. But they
let him 60. At least three nights
week it was Osterholm, Mar
gifts father, or Gunnar Brogge,
or one of the other fishermen,
who stood guard.
The plans had all been per-
fected long ago. Each man who
could be trusted knew what his
post would be on the last day.
Old Malken was in it. He and
three others were to capture the
guards down on the point. Men
had been sent up into the hills
to talk to people in outlying vii
lagos and the smaller farms.
Here and there they came across
others who had also had news
from the English. But week fol-
lowed week; the days grew
dark; the sun set, a dull red fire
on the sea at three in the after
noon, and still there was no
word. With narrow eyes, dark
silent faces, the men tried to
keep heart in their wives, the
strong in the weak and
they waited. There was too
much for them ever to forget.

Jews Ignored At

LONDON, (JTA)-Jewish lead
ers here are greatly disappointed
over the fact that a statement on
Jewish sufferings in Nazi-occupied
countries was completely ignored
at the session of the Inter-Allied
conference held in st. James Pal
ace last week at which represen-
tatives of Poland, Belgium, Greece,
Czechoslovakia, Holland, Norway,
Yugoslavia, Free France and Lux
emburg pledged themselves to
punish all those guilty and re-
sponsible during the war for acts
of violence against the civilian
population"
The Jewish statement was pre-
pared by the Joint Foreign Com
mittee of the Board of jewish
Deputies. It was addressed to
Gen. Sikorski, Polish Premier, who
presided at today's session. Inc
communication, however, was not
read to the assembled delegates by
the Polish Premier.

filters, one of whom later distin-

the bombadier in Captain Kelly's
ship, which later was shot down
by Jap fighter planes. Corporal
Levin baled out safely.
