called on to face enemies who had pre-
pared for years, and that Americans
began the war "from scratch" The
war began on the production lines, he
added, and the workers were enlisted
as Soldiers of production"
Green told the delegates that when
the totalitarian tyrants have been
overthrown, the democratic nations
must set up an international force,
democratic and democratically con-
trolled, to preserve the peace through
out the entire world"
At the peace table, he added, labor
must have very large representation.
In addition to Green, Premier Nit
chell F. Hepburn of Ontario; Humph-
rey Mitchell, Dominion Minister OF
Labor, and Mayor Fred j. Conboy OF
Toronto spoke. They expressed con-
fidence in the eventual defeat of the
Axis powers but warned that grave
sacrifices will be demanded before vic
tory is assured.

AFL AID PLEDGED
TO PRESIDENT IN
INITIATION FIGHT

Toronto (ILNS). - The American
Federation of Labor will Cooperate
to the fullest" in President Roosevelt's
anti-infiation program, President Will
liam Green of the federation said here.
Prior to opening of the A. F. of L.
convention, Green said that while he
had studied only press reports of the
program, and could not express opinion
on all sections, he interpreted the or
der as wage stabilization rather
than a wage freezing program" He
said he was "glad to note" that it pre-
serves the Walsh-Healey Act requir-
ing war work contractors to pay pre-
vailing rates of wages.
Singing out the provision in the ex-
ecutive order which permits the War
Labor Board to increase wages when
it feels that by so doing it will facili-
tate the war effort, Green pointed out
that some of the provisions in the
order had been discussed by spokes-
men for the A. F. of L. and the CIO
many times"
Many of the recommendation we
made are Incorporated in the execu-
tive order," he added.

hearing in Washington, December TO,
Chairman Malcolm S. MacLean an
nounceS.
For several months the committee
had been receiving complaints of dis
elimination from practically every
section of the country, DR.. MacLean
said
The complaints, he added, had come
from individuals and from such organ
izations as the Provisional Committee
to Organize Colored Locomotive Fire
men, the International Association of
Colored Railway Trainmen and Loco
motive Fireman, Inc; the Interna-
tional Brotherhood of Firemen, Oilers,
Helpers, Roundhouse and Railway
Shop Laborers, and the National Ur-
ban League.
"a number of railroads and several
labor unions are involved in the
charges so far made" according to
the committee, which is unit of the
War Manpower Commission.

Toronto (ILNS).-Organized labor
will exceed all war production goals,
President William Green of the Amer
ican Federation of Labor declared in
opening the federation's sixty-second
annual convention here.
At the same time, Green asserted
that President Roosevelt had rebuked
government officials who have been
saying that trade unions are unnec-
essary and that we are losing the war.
His reference was to recent speeches
by Rear Admiral Ben Moreell, who
said that the people of the Axis ma
tions were living without labor unions
and that "the people will damn well
do without them here if we don't get
in there and PITCH" and by Ralph A.
Bard, Assistant Secretary of the
Navy, who said 1--WE are losing the
war" Moreell's remarks were made
at the A. F. of L. Metal Trades De-
partment convention prior to opening
of the A. F. of l.. convention.
Faith in Victory Voiced
The keynote of the convention was
forecast by Green in a broadcast pre-
view when he said: "Only such under
takings as contribute to promoting
the war effort can command our inn
mediate support and attention"
Nearly 600 delegates, speaking for
almost 100000 organized workers in
the United States and Canada, at
tended the convention.
In his opening address, made before
a cheering, packed hall, President
Green emphasized confidence in vic
tory for the United Nations and prom
ised that American workers would
smash all production records.
Labor to Make Good

Toronto (ILNS)-Wage rates must
be lifted to a much higher level to
carry us into a postwar period at a
decent living level" the executive
council of the American Federation
of Labor said in its annual report, sub
mitted to the federation's sixty-second
convention here.
Nine out of every 10 American fac
tory workers receive wages below
that necessary to give them mini
mum health and decency budget, the
council charged.
The report quoted the Office of
Price Administration figures showing
that for 1912 nearly two-thirds of all
American non-farm families-includ-
ing salaried workers-will receive less
than the $1,000 necessary for mini
mum health and efficiency living" and
the council asserted that 29 per cent
of all workers now receive less than
the $1,000 estimated by the Labor De-
partment as necessary for bare SUBJ
sistence living level.
Wage "Yardstick" Suggested
The council asserted that "an ade-
quate and equitable wage for workers
is particularly vital in wartime be-
cause of the influence on morale and
on the ability to maintain production, "
and suggested a four-point yard
stick" for measuring wage demands:

She loitered moment near the doorway frankly hoping for a glimpse and smile from big Duane Hogan. Then she looked out and saw him boot a practice punt, high and far. The beauty of it thrilled her.
 Going out to watch practice?" a voice asked at her elbow then.
 "Oh! You startled me, Nor man. No, not today. I'm going to the hospital to see about Nancy Hale and Scooter"
 Love me any, yet?" He mur- mured that intimately, closely, straight into her violet eyes. Nor man Dana, up to his old tricks again.
 She didn't answer lest her anger show, but she grabbed her bike and rode it violently the half mile to the hospital. Presently she was sitting at Nancy Hale's side.
 "You must be in heaven" the young widow said, after their greetings. "You, the coach's daugh- ter, bossing so many fine boys. They've all been here with gifts. So sweet to me"
 Blythe laughed. I'm not the boss. Pop is. But I love it all"
 "Is he gay and-and chummy? With a lot of laughter? A lot of fun? Tell me, Miss Miller!" She said it so eagerly that Blythe was surprised. Eagerly, ai- most hungrily. Blythe thought she understood.
 Please call me Blythe or just Bly," she said, kindly. "Yes, it's lots of fun. Football season is, anywhere. The flying field here has players from several of the biggest schools. State U. The Aggies. Rice. Tulane Oh, lot of them. Pop is so proud! That's the only game we've lost so far"
 Nancy Hale lay back little while. "A lot of fun" she sighed then. at the ceiling. Laughter. Gaity. Good times"
 Blythe touched her hand. Haven't you-had any fun, Nancy? :. You and little Scooter? <. Are you still grieving?
 '.No. The sting of-that-is gone, My husband Is memory now, en- shrined. But since it happened, Scooter and Ely, we don't have any peoplel No place to go. No nobody. Not even any money! Don't you understand?"
 All at once she was in tears and Blythe's heart went out to her. They talked a great deal more. woman fashion. The sun was low when Blythe took little Scooter from the nursery ward and rode him to her home in the bicycle basket. The tiny fellow found much to delight him.
 He's lived in auto camps and worse, I guess, for almost a year. Mother" Blythe explained at dinner table.
 He's a darling"
 "He is that" Pop Miller nodded And huskyI I'll make q fullback of him, you1l seel"
 They. showered presents on him and. taking her chances of giving offense. Blythe loaded 6 suitcase of her own clothes and took them to the hospital for Nancy Hale.
 "It's not 6 gift" she explained, I'm lending you these because you need them. You're out Of here to- morrow. you know. They are worth eiO and you must pay me some day
 She got by with it. Reward was a W0rshlpful look from the wan but oddly beautiful girl in the hospital bed. Blythe felt that lneompnrable glow which only such deeds bring.
