DRAFTING LABOR

There are going to be some pretty
fierce efforts to puncture the trial bal
loon sent up late last week by national
selective service headquarters relative to
possible drafting of labor to increase war
time output. The LABOR unions, which
heretofore have eXerted an unnaturally
successful pressure on Washington in all
matters where they were interested, won't
like it A lot of other people won't like
it, either, and their disagreement will be
honest and sincere.
We cannot see any difference, however,
between drafting men for the army, draft
ing capital for production (Which has
already bee:l done through taxes and
priorities), and drafting labor for pro-
duction If it is necessary to win the
war, we say, "go ahead.
At the same time, we believe no draft
of labor would be necessary if CTly Wash
ington would adopt logical attitude to-
ward the gigantic labor unions which
have become the worst of all monopolies.
Labor could be found to do every job
that must be done, we believe, if labor
were left to its own resources, without
the interference of racketeers who can't
even pronounce patriotism.
Labor is willing to help win the war,
if the racketeers and Washington theor-
lists would leave it alone.

STILL FIGHT ON

There is a Korean national army
of l5.OOO exiles fighting with the
Chinese, says Rhee, and there are
5000 guerillaS in the Manchuk-
uoan hills. There is provisional
Korean government in Chungklng,
headed By another Korean patriot
named Kim KOo. GeneraliSsimO
Chang Kai-Shek and his wife have
given private funds to help this
movement, but the Chinese repub-
lie has never glVea formal reco3-
milton tC the Korean revolutionary
government and this i, one OF the
reasons why the United States gov
ernment hesitates to extend laco2-
milton
Since Pearl HarbOr the United
States has taken two definite
steps to aid Koreans. Their ma
tiOnals who have previously reg
istered as Koreans are excluded
from classification as enemy
aliens. and the funds of these
Korean nationals were freed
from freezing orders. Austrian
nationals in the United states
have been given the same con-
sideration and by these steps a
start has been made toward
Free Austria and Free Korea
mC vementS.
But do the 23 million Koreans
want independence now? After ali
it is pointed out, the Koreans have
been Japanese subject. for nearly
40 wears. To this the KOreaa pat
riots reply that their civilization
goes back 40 centuries and ~ year

Two Officers Win
Top Flight Honors
With Macarthur
BY FRANK HEWLETT

WITH GEN. MACARTHUR >
ARMY IN THE PHILIPPINES,
Feb. 23- tUP1-TWo men from
Massachusetts, brigadier general
and a prospective captain who a
lew weeks ago was a private, have
put themselves in the top flight of
the officers who have made good
in Gen. Douglas MacArthur's his
toric defense Cf the Bataan penin-
sula.
They are Brig Gen Albert NJ.
Jones, of Quicy, who has been
awarded the distinguished service
cross for one of the great exploits
of the war, and Lieut. ROLAND
'Frenchy) Saulnier, who has risen
from a 9th class member of the
carrier pigeon corps to u battalion
leader and has been recommended
for a captaincy.
ONE TRAINED NATIVES
jones performed the feat of
bringing 10000 exceedingly green
Filipino troops from southern Lu-
Lon province, where the Japanese
intended to trap them. all the way
% Bataan province. where he has
proudly seen them become hard
ened, brave fighting men. The
Filipinos under his direction wiped
out a japanese regiment which had
broken through the American lines
in Bataan.
Before the war, Jones was sent
to southern Lu<)n to organize an
infantry division. He was doing
that when the japanese attacked
and effected landing at Atimonan.
Jones was given command of the
southern forces. He got the order
to retreat. 1t meant moving
through difficult country with green
troops before an enemy whose aim
was tC prevent the movement
EVERYTHING But THEFT
Jones did everything but steal
buses and trucks to larry his men
blowing up hundreds of bridges and
and supplies. He succeeded in
blowing up hundreds of bridges and
in slowing the Japanese He brought
every piece of equipment and all
his ammunition with him. He also
succeeded in getting into and out
of Manila aad leaving it empty
The japanese had hoped he would
commit the folly of trying to de-
fend it.
Joness men defended the en-
trance to the peninsula while the
main American forces entered it.
Pones and his men took part in
some of the fierceSo fighting, and
now they are in action again.
Jones has four sons. One is at
West Point. Another hopes tG en-
ter soon. The third is a naval
architect. The fourth is an army
parachute trooper
UP FROM RANKS
Saulnier at the start of the war
showed up at lSt infantry division
headquarters with his pigeons, in
big boxes After the pigeons had
been released he was out of a job
He soon showed a genius for
leading Philippines troops.
In the peninsula, the command
ing officer of the unit to which
Saulnier had attached himself sue
ceeded in getting him a second
ljeutenants commission. His jobs
became more and more important.
He is leading a battalion now.
He had led a regiment and for 20
days he remained at the front not
At his command post but in the
first line trenches with his men.
Artillerymen call Saulnier sound
Frenchy" because of the novel way
he has of airecting their fire ON
his sector, where there are no OBJ
eervation posts, He gets the guns
to fire trial" shots unI.h They
eound to him as if they were land

CAPITAL TALKS
by
Peter
Edison

Of queer conferences are held In
Washinston every day but one of
the strangest is scheduled tor Feb
27-March ! when 4 Korean Liber-
" Conference Of Korean rerolu-
tionary patriots meets wlLh the
+ hope of setting up an autl-Japa-
! neSe movement whlCn the United
/ States will recognize and support
! as a drive to sabotage Japans war
/ production and to work for reStor-
/ alton OF Korean independence
! Strangely enough. this is one
revolution which is hot to be hatch
ed behind guarded doors in some
i forgotten attic up a back alley The
! Korean revolution wants publicity
/ and it has press agent tunpaidl
who labors for the cause just be-
cause he loves Koreans and hates
JapS,
The Korean patriots in Amer
ica even want to broadcast by
short wave message to their
% million conquered cOuntrymen
at home, telling them to blow
up bridges, to mine highways, to
destroy Jap ammunition plants.
The Japs, say the Koreans, have
scattered a lot of radio receiving
sets around Chosen, the Jap
name for Korea, in order to
spread japanese propaganda,
and the Korean patriots think
these same sets would receive
and speak Korean propaganda
just as well.
NOW WE CAN HELP
To the 5000 Koreans in the I'm
tied States and Hawaii, the date
of this forthcoming Liberty Con-
ference is significant. for 1t was
March |. 1919, that the Koreans
staged their last open revolt against
their Japanese masters. The Un-
tied States couldn't support the
Korean independence movement
at that time because Japan and
the United States were allies in
World War I. Also it was with
out American protest that the
Korean en- perOr aDdicated and the
Japanese took over. That was al
ter the Japanese war.
The call for this Korean Liberty
Conference comes from 67-year-old
DR.. Syngman Rhee, who was SNUG
gled into Shanghai in a coffin
to lead the furtive revolution %
years ago. DR. Rhee was the first
president of the Korean Republic
He was a student OF woodrow
wilson's at Princeton and he was
and still is a believer in Wilson s
doctrine of self-determination for
small peoples. despite what nap
pened in the intervening years.
Rhee was imprisoned as an agl-
tator for seven years and was tor
tured as only an Oriental can tor
ture his fellow-man, one OF the
favorite devices being to beat the
backs of the outStretched fingers
with bamboo switches. When eX-
cited, Rhee still blows on the backs
of his hands in an unconscious geS-
ture of nervousness.
Out of prison, Rhee came to the
United States and he has worked
indefatigably for Korean lnde-
pendence ever since. Most OF the
time. nobodY would listen. Korean
independence was sold down INC
river at Versailles. To-day, Rhec
sees another chance.

Lortant charge of BolshevistS,
including appeaTers in all foreign

that the Ped ArIny's object was
the destruction Of the German na-
ton and the German state, were
foolish lies and stupid libels."
The Red Army aim is driving
the invaders from our home land
and freeing Soviet soil of the Ger
man Fascist invaders.

driving out Hitlers clique from

development
