Detroit war workers should realize that America
will win this war ONLY if we continue to rush guns

and sailors and marines scattered all the world
Detroit war workers should know can furnish
plenty of guns and ammunition and combat equipment
ONLY if Detroit war factories continue to operate with

by strikes

Lord Robert Cecil, at the Brit

Butler. who had the job OF
talking to us most OF the time,
was a scholar who couldn't serve
in France as he would have liked

He had a twittering voice and
used 10 refer 10 these confer

ally he met Us in the dark hall
outside his office so it would be
easier 70 get rid of US.
Grigg was thorough and per-
SistenL Butler would answer
that "rilly yknow" there was
absolutely nothing on Russia
Just now Things seemed quite
normal Nothing OF interest.

Lord Robert Cecil was a tall.

in reference Yellow Truck Company strike at Pom

ers of the heavy responsibility that is theirs until the

II should remind them that the strike they foment
now may very we'll the death of their American
friends and brothers and in South Pacific
jungle shortly the loss of battle by American troops

If they ignore these obvious conclusions they are
unpatriotc and unwse.
They will brand themselves unpatriotic because it
they don't what happens to American soldiers
and sailors and marines long they themselves win
a back-fence quarrel real fancied provo

They will brand themselves unwise because it is
deadly true that THE PATIENCE OF THE PUBLIC
HAS ITS LIMITS"
Those limits will have been reached the moment
the public is convinced that American boys being
slaughtered in alien battle fields because workers in
American factories too concerned with their
selfish interests turn the guns and bullets
necessary to their lives.
