Senators Discuss
Attack on Japan by
Way Of Alaska
Believed Most Practical
Manner to Regain
Philippines If Lost

Specializing ON the likelihood that
the Philippines would fall to the
japanese, congressional leaders to-
day expressed the opinion that the
quickest and most practical way Of
recovering the islands would be
through a land, sea and air assault
on Japan itself.
While disclaiming any pretensions
OF being military strategists, several
Senators said it appeared to them
that such a drive against the jap
anese empire eventually could be
carried out, supported by communi-
cations lines through Alaska and the
Aleutian Island chain.
Before this country Is ready to
strike, however. Chairman Connally
of the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee said the people must pre-
pare themselves for losses of men
and ships. The Texan said the fall
of the Philippines was to be expected
because they long had been consid-
cred a military liability instead OF
an asset. The distance of the
islands from the United States made
it virtually impossible to re-enforce
them and. defend them against =
strong Oriental power, he added.
Months Of Preparation.
"When we hit our full stride" the
Senator continued, II have no doubt
as to our victory. Hitler and Japan
have chosen to live by the sword.
and by the sword they shall perish"
Senators Taft, Republican, OF Ohio
and George, Democrat, Of Georgia
agreed that an Alaskan-Aleutian
campaign would require months OF
careful preparation. Senator Nor
ris, independent, of Nebraska, ex-
pressed the view the war might last
from to 10 years.
1--WE will have to fight on and on"
Senator Norris declared. They are
taking our bases now, and we must
get them back. We will have to
build ships and planes and tanks on
a scale such that our people will be
able to obtain control Of the Pacific.
Then we can starve out the Jap
anese and force them to come to
terms"
The Nebraskan said he was con-
fident that I'm the end we will de-
feat them"
Long War Expected.
Senator Taft told reporters he be-
lieved the Nation faces long war"
and Senator George said no one
could tell how long the conflict
would last. Eventually, to bring
Japan to terms, Senator George
said, America will have to carry the
war home to her with bombs. But
he added that demands for imme-
diate offensive action should be side
tracked in order that the Army and
Navy would not be pressed into tax
ing unwise retaliatory steps.
Senator Ball, Republican, Of Min
nesota agreed with Senator George
that in time the United States could
develop sufficient bases along the
Aleutian islands to support an all
out hammer blow against Japan.
Nevertheless he pointed out that
weather difficulties we're tremendous
along such route.
Senator Vandenberg, Republican,
of Michigan expressed his admira-
ton for the gallant fight the Fill
pinos had made along with Ameri-

GET READY NOW

ONE OF THE FIRST things labor will have to
~ think about when the 1913 Congress comes IN
next January is a new tax bill.
The 1912 bill, passed in November, has been
described as the worst in tax history 1t hits the
the rich and the fat corporations 1t is real wage
cut and consequently real threat to war produc-
ton, because it takes money from workers as far
down the scale as SIP Weel-money that is des-
peratey needed for food and health.
At the same time, it leaves big incomes and
profits as a breeding ground for inllation Most
glaring OF all was the fat refusal Of Congress to
do anything about the $4,000 income limit.
And because the 1912 bill fails to raise the
revenue the government needs for war financing,
we will be faced with new bill almost as soon as
Congress meets next month. What happens to
that bill-whether it is a Win-the-War measure or
another Soak-the-poOr Acknowledgements on labor.
The reactionary and anti-Victory forces are
stronger in this Congress than before. The first
thing they will probably try for will be a general
sales taX-some Of the poll tax statesmen who
sabotaged the 1912 bill are openly boasting that
sales tax is first on the agenda.
We all know that the sales tax cuts the food
and other necessities workers can buy, thus cut
ting their health and productive efficiency. Labor
can stop this plot against production. Labor
can make The 1913 tax bill real victory measure.
But only if labor starts now, by organizing for
an ali-out campaign, even before the new Congress
comes in. Start telling your Congressman and
your Senators, even if they're newly elected that
labor demands an aI-out Wn-the-War tax bill in
1913

WHAT ABOUT THIS?

in A NORTH Middle Western state, where the
L. winters are long and severe, is good sized
camp occupied by men Of the Army Air Forces
Technical Training School. The camp was begun
last May. Evidently those in charge of building it
were under the impression the site was some
where in the balmy South, as Southern con-
struction" or "BoXi construction" was followed.
Barracks were at first made with earthen
floors, as in the Deep South Then it was decided
these would never do and cement hoors cold and
dusty, were provided Other barracks were made
with wooden floors, more satisfactory than
Icement.
With the coming cold weather, there have
been many cases Of pneumonia and other respr-
|atory diseases and at least case of the dreaded
Iepdemic meningitis.
Officers and men are universal in cOndemna-
Ition Of the construction used in the camp With
material plentiful in this country, its fiimsy con
IStructiOn seems neXcuSable and strongly sug-
Igests that somebody in the Army bundered badly
lOr perhaps there was dishonesty somewhere. The
building Of such a warm weather camp in a cold
northern state would seem to call for investga-
ton, both by the Army authorities and by Con
IgreSS

THE EAGER acceptance by the rank and file OF
Americans of the opportunity to invest in War
Bonds and Stamps is not only manifestation OF
the inherent sound, common sense of the Amerl-
people, but it is positive proof there IS no COM
placency here that patriotism runs high and
that the spirit of independence which made OF us
q great nation is still virile and strong. But we
have not done enough
Almost fifty millions of Americans have in
vested more than nine billion dollars in War
Bonds. Not in decades has any single effort
aroused such a sense of pride in America; such
fervor in the hearts of Americas freemen as has
the campaign to sell War Bonds.
From hamlet and by-way from city and
highway . . from the plains to the mountains
comes the voluntary challenge from the throats
of these millions of Americans = This is our
America We shall defend her." But we have not
started to sacrifice. We have only begun to finance
this war.
We must have more millions of farmers, more
millions of workers in the industrial plants, more
millions in office and store putting more and more
billions into War Bonds before reach the goal
of ten per cent of the nations gross payroll in
vested in War Bonds. No person gainfully en-
ployed should shirk. Everybody must join the
Payroll Savings Plan for regular deductions of
earnings for War Bonds to the extent Of ten per
cent. Where there is no Payroll Savings Plan
available, regular investment of ten per cent of
income must be done individually.
The Treasury Department is today opening a
more intensive campaign with the slogan "Top
That Ten Per Cent by New Years" That means
ten per cent Of the Nations gross payroll must go
into War Bonds by the first of the year.
Love Of country, love of home and love of our
American Way Of Life should spark this great
voluntary and Democratic method of financing
this war =. which is our war :. your war. For
your boy, your husband, your father your sweet
heart is there on the battle front, on the high
seas in the air in the training camps ready to give
hi ca1 for, nr,lf for,
To make his hundred per cent worth while
we must have your ten per cent

SOCIETY TEE GAMER

'SOCIIErY HAS gained hours of labor by shorten
- ing hours of labor, paradoXical as this may
seem at first glance Figures supplied by the
international Typographical Union and conobor-
Back in 1850, prior to the Civil War, when
Horace Greeley was president Of the New York
Typographical Union printers died young. They
worked an average Of y hours day, in nsani-
tary and poorly lighted worlrooms and died at
the average age of % years. An apprentice started
the trade at the age Of II, and by working II
hours a day until he died at the age of 2S years,
he gave his employer $1,000 hours of labor.
The modern apprentice begins his training at
the age of l6 and dies at the age of 65 years -
thus giving his employer $4,000 hours of labor.
Society has therefore gained 17 600 hours of labor
and the printer has gained 81 years of life-not-
understanding he works only 40 hours per week
and gets vacation of two weeks with pay.
