Labor representatives were said
to have presented demands for
wage increases totaling loo. 900

ent arguments.
Labor repre- sentatives an
nounced they would ask equal pay
for women on jobs comparable
with those filled by men The
present scale is so cents an hour
for women as compared with rs
cents an hour for men on begin

1T is $50 years since Christie
pher Columbus first saw the new
western world off his bow. He and
his followers found a great ex-
panse where new beginnings could
be made, where men could steer
their courses free of the letters
of tyranny and the encompassment
of outworn institutions. In the
wake of his courageous and I'M
precedented voyage there came to
the Americas the seeking people
of many countries - people who
sought liberty, democracy, relig-
ious tolerance, the fuller life.
This was the American expert
ment, a bold experiment and sue

But now the free nations

determine whether the march
of progress shall proceed or be
halted by the totality of con-
quest.
Our cause is not only liberty
for ourselves but liberation for
others. An American victory will
be a United Nations victory and
a victory for oppressed and en-
shaved people everywhere. I like
to remember on this significant
anniversary the words of a con-
temporary poet:
Columbus found a world and
had no chart,
Save one that faith deciphered

we have that faith deciphered
