SUPREME COURT TO
HEAR CONSCIENTIOUS
DIRECTORS APPEAL

Washington, D. C. (ILNS) The
Supreme Court has received it's first
conscientious objector case of the
present war-an appeal by Whitney
Bowles of Newfoundland N. j., for
review of his conviction and three
year sentence for failing to submit to
induction.
His brief contended that h s
scruples against military service
would not permit him to appear for
induction without violating his con-
science. But his plea for exemption, he
said, was enormously rejected by the
Pennington, N. j., Draft Appeal
Board which held that he must serve
because he was not member of any
sect whose creed forbids armed serv-
ice.
The New Jersey Federal District
Court imposed the sentence, ruling
that a conscientious objector must be
a member of a religious sect or cult
that has as one of it's canons resist
ence to participation in the activity of
armed forces or participation in
war" The Circuit Court of Appeals
upheld the conviction.

Committee Formed On Invitation From Captain S. S.
Kennedy Committees To Consist of Same Delegates
Who Attended Washington Conference

New York City (ILNS) Labor
management cooperation to increase
production is being pushed in the
big Brooklyn Navy Yard, with the ac-
tive backing of American Federation
of Labor unions.
Following the recent Navy labor
relations conference in Washington
where Navy officials talked things
over with delegates from Navy yards
all over the country, the advisory
committee was formed on invitation
from Captain S. S. Kennedy, USN,
yard manager. 1t was agreed that
the committee should consist of the
same delegates who attended the
Washington conference. The delegates
were elected by the men in the yard.
Working Machinery Set Up
The committee has been meeting
with Navy officials once every two
weeks and has already set up working
machinery and procedure.
''We feel that there should be no
misunderstanding, no controversy and
inequity which cannot be solved by
management and production workers
striving closely and harmoniously to
win the war. Through these repre-
sentatives, all yard personnel will now
have the opportunity to contribute to
this yards wartime efficiency by care
full employe consideration of the
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1942-12-24

And especially so, since our armed
forces are doing rather we'll at the
job right now.
Of course those phonies and enc
mics within who talk about doubts of
the rightness of the United Nations
cause will have a difficult time with
themselves.
But Americans who KNOW we are
right-and that is all but a handful
of us-will see the thing clearly and
the Holiday Season will be glad with
a brightness and a purity beyond
compare.
At last in this old world for torture
and oppression, the cause of people
as opposed to power is getting some
where.
When this war is over, the road will
be open to people.
Of course the details of freedom and
of the new bill of rights for the world
will not be all worked out.
But the road will be open and it
will be safe.
Grandiose banditry will no
longer be on the road where peo-
pie go. That will be something
wholly new in the world-the
issue toward which this enormous
war moves US implacably.
Be, therefore, of good cheer. Be
filled with great satisfaction that
the strength of right is at last proving
greater and more formidable than the
strength of evil. Through great pain
and great sacrifice we move toward
the light. Rejoice that it is SO. Re
joice, America and all the world!
-CMW.
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1942-12-24

The Holiday Season. All, yes, the
Holiday Season.
Last year the Holiday Season came
while smoke still hovered over Pearl
Harbor. Few, indeed, could feel much
of what is called "the Christmas
spirit" under the pail of that calam-
ity.
But we got through it and we
plunged into preparations for war
that is to call up every ounce OF en-
ergy and every ounce of material that
our nation can produce.
Today every nerve is strained to
enable this nation, through its armed
forces, to kill as many enemies as
possible and to do it as quickly as
possible.
That's what it boils down to. We
have got to blast into complete defeat
the military might of Germany and
Japan. That is our Christmas message
and our job until it is done.
And so there are many who think
that somehow there is big gap be-
tween our nations job of killing and
the gospel of the Prince of Peace.
So many people think only of a
Prince of Peace and never of mill
tant crusader. They forget Il bring
you sword!'
Were there also, may we ask, a
few malefactors among the money
changers who went down for the final
count? It's fair question-there may
have been.
There was definitely something un-
compromisingly for the right and
equally definitely evil did not go un-
punished
There is lot more than the Ten
Commandments about the doctrine of
the Prince of Peace. And those who
feel chill of reluctance about the
business of killing enemy troops had
better look it up.

problems that might stand in the way
of these objectives," the Industrial
Relations Department of the Yard
announced in a statement of policy.
Many AFL locals are represented in
the Brooklyn Navy Yard Among
these are locals of the Sheet Metal,
Electricians, Molders, Pl m b + S,
Blacksmiths, Boilermakers and Ma
chinists.
Awards for Suggestions
The "Shipworker," official publica-
tion of the yard, announced that
awards totaling $245 were presented
to seven men whose recent sugges-
tions to the management will result
in greater wartime efficiency.
presented by Captain Kennedy,
yard manager the awards in
cluded the maximum grant of $100
which went to John j. Fox, principal
marine engineer.
New Adjustment Tool
MIR. Fox suggested new process
for manufacturing label plates to be
used on shipboard. This idea alone is
expected to save the Navy many thou
sands of dollars.
"Other winners of high awards in
cluded John M. Haddaeus, electrical
shop, who designed tool for making
relay adjustments in one-third the
time previously required"

Chicago (ILNS) Local govern
ments have been forced by the war to
operate with greater efficiency as
well as economy, an international City
Managers Association survey shows.
Wartime problems involving priori-
ties, and shortages in manpower, ma
terials and equipment have stimula-
ted this development.
improvements in operating effici-
ency reported by cities covered by the
study-30, representing all population
groups-include such methods as in
stallation of new accounting and
budget control system, central pur-
chasing Offices to effect economies in
buying governmental supplies, ref
nancing bonds at lower interest rates
and retiring municipal debts to save
interest costs.
More Work, Fewer Employees
More efficient operation of munich
pal motor vehicle equipment was re-
ported by several cities, including
installation of records systems to save
on maintenance, gas and oil consump-
ton and repair costs; servicing of
equipment at night to keep it in use
and save man-hours; requiring that
city-owned cars be housed in the city
garage at night and restricting use of
the cars during the day.
Cities also, on basis of the associa-
tion's survey, are installing modern
equipment where available to get
more work done with fewer employees,
and are operating refuse collection

Police Examination Slated

With Hamilton's Police Department
considerably undermanned, plans were
made Monday by the Civil Service
Commission for an examination with
in few weeks to set up an eligibility
list from which potential policemen
may be selected.
At the same time it was announced
that the 21-31 age limit restrictions
had been lifted and men up to SO years
old now would be acceptable for police
service
The police force has lost four men
to the armed services recently and a
fifth is in hospital with injuries suf-
fered in an off-duty motorcycle acci-
dent, Chief j. c. Calhoun said. Officer
John LOTUS, one of the four, was
granted a leave of absence and will
be inducted Friday. Adrian Barber
and Clark Castator may be called
soon
Normal strength of the Police De-
partment is 50 men. At present only
33 men are available to walk beats or
ride patrol cars on three shifts, Cal
houn said.

Light, Relief Costs Cut

The war itself can be credited with
causing many economies in operation
of local governments, according to the
study. Most cities are saving on street
light costs because Of dime out regula-
tions and war time with its extra
hour of dalight. Relief costs have de-
creased in many cities because of in
creased employment, while costs of
public improvements and equipment
are reduced or eliminated because ma
terials are unavailable or projects are
non-essential. Reduced travel because
of tire and gas rationing, and the 35
mile an hour speed limit, have made
it possible for many cities to release
police traffic personnel for other
duties and to eliminate now non-es-
sential traffic signals and reduce op-
Grafton of others.
