Earnings Affected

All these things will affect botf
profits and sales but several Other
factors are affecting or are threat
ening to affect profits alone. Cost:
of materials and supplies are
higher than year ago, taxes arr
going up, wages and salaries have
been increased. while selling price:
are fixed by the OPA general cell
ing order.
On top Of this, the A. F. Of l.
Brewery" Workers Union. with
which Detroit brewers are operat-
ing under a three-year contract
is agitating for another wage adj
vance. Although the CONTRACT does
not expire until April, 1913, and
although wage advance. due in
April. 1912. was granted last fall.
the union wants another advance
right now. The brewers are hold
ing firm against the unions de-
mand thus far, but pressure may
become too great later on.

Favored on Taxes

With respect TO taxes, Detroi
brewing companies are. fortunate
in that the base period under the
average earnings option for excess
profits taxes generally witnessed
considerably higher yearly earn
ings than those of 1910 and 1871.
Thus. they are likely to run into
a heavy excess profits tax penalty
this year. On other hand, such
interim reports as have been made
public to date indicate that the
combination of higher income
tax rate and increased labor and
material costs is resulting in a
decline in net profits for most Of
the leading Michigan breweri7G
this year.

WLB Raises Retirement
Age Of Oil Firm Workers

Washington, D. C. (ILNS). - The
War Labor Board, for the first time,
has ordered change in the retirement
age of company's employes-from
60 to 65 years. The CIO Oil Workers
International Union, representing 2s0
employees of the Champlin Refining
Company at Enid, Okla, said the COM
pany had abandoned its own pension
plan after passage of the Social Sc
curity Act, but the retirement age was
kept at so, whereas old-age insurance
benefits do not begin until age 65. The
board ruled "the retirement age of the
employees shall be set at such time as
to coincide with their receiving of i'm
mediate social security benefits"

in our population ever since the first
seeds of war were sown in Europe by
Hitler The American Federation of
Labor was the first nationwide or
ganization i'll our country to condemn
Hitler 1t was the first to clamp
boycott on Nazi products. 1t was the
first to condemn japanese aggression
against China. 1t was the first to de-
mand that shipment of war materials
to Japan be forbidden.
The American Federation of Labor
was the leading advocate of aid to
Britain long before we entered the
war; 1t supported conscription, lend
lease and our national defense pro-
gram without hesitation from the very
beginning.
Along with President Roosevelt, the
leaders of labor saw what was coming
and made preparations long in ad-
vance. Adoption of the no-strike pol
icy, lengthening of hours of work, re-
Taxation of pre-war standards, stabili-
zation of wages by industry wide
agreements and ALLEGATION of avail
able skilled manpower where it was
most vitality needed were some of the
outstanding voluntary actions by Ia
Dor which served to expedite the war
effort and speed up war production.
This coming convention must decide
whether it will be wiser for labor to
continue to anticipate the needs of
America and meet them in advance by
voluntary action or to sit back and
wait until compulsory legislation is
adopted to force labor to do certain
things. Again we have no doubt what
the answer will be.
For the most important thing Amer
lean workers are anxious to preserve
is their freedom. AS long as they act
of their own free will, that freedom
will be safe The moment they fail to
do enough on their own and have to
be compelled by law to act, their free
dom is endangered. The convention
will point the way to avert this dan
ger. We hope to see many of you
there.

To prevent salt from clogging, put
a few toothpicks in the shaker.
Ants can be eliminated by saturat-

Wine stains may be removed from
linen by dipping in hot milk
Wet umbrellas, contrary to general
opinion, should not be left open to dry

FACING
THE -
FACTS
With PHILIP PEARL

President Roosevelt has been for
mally invited to address the forthcom-
ing sixty-second annual convention of
the American Federation of Labor
which will open on October in To-
ronto, Canada.
Of course, the President is so busy
with war problems these days that he
may not find it possible to accept the
invitation. Nevertheless, we sincerely
hope he will In the last war President
Wilson delivered an address to the
1917 convention of the American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor that inspired the
workers of America to reach new
heights of service to their country
We think President Roosevelt can also
accomplish great deal by following
the example of his distinguished
predecessor.
Even if the President cannot come
to the convention in person or ar
range to address it by radio, he is GER
tain to send an important message to
the annual congress of labor.
He realizes, more clearly than ever
before, that labor is the key to victory
in this war. To defeat the Axis pow
ers, we must first achieve superiority
in war weapons. Production of arma-
ment depends to large degree on la
Dor. The battle of production must
be won before the war can be won.
The Two Best Neighbors
For this reason, many distinguished
leaders of our war effort will make it
their business to attend the conven-
tion and talk to the delegates. Among
them is Undersecretary of War Pat
terson.
Another outstanding leader who has
accepted an invitation to attend is the
Prime Minister of Canada, Mackenzie
King. Canada is our ally in this war.
Like in this country, she is producing
vast amount of armament and ship
ping it to the battlefronts of the war.
Also many thousands of Canadian
young men are being trained to fight
in Europe, Africa and Asia for a
United Nations Victory.
Therefore, holding the convention
in Canada this year should go far to-
ward cementing closer and friendlier
relationships between the two best
neighbors in the world-the United
States and Canada.
Two fraternal delegates from the
British Trades Union Congress will
come to the convention from England
and give us the benefit of their ex-
perience in meeting the problems of
war production
Also Vice-President Daniel j. Tobin,
who has just returned to this country
from trip to Great Britain, will re-
port to the convention on the condi-
tions he found there. Mr.. Tobin flew
to England as the personal represent
ative of President Roosevelt and as
fraternal delegate from the A. F. of l..
to the convention of the British Trades
Union Congress.
We have mentioned some of the ex-
pected highlights of the earlier ses-
sions of the convention. But the meat
of the convention will be the action
taken by the delegates on the vital is
sues which confront American workers
and will play an important part in the
conduct of the war
Labor Looks Ahead
Unquestionably the fundamental is
sue is whether labor is prepared tc
make further sacrifices. We have nc
doubt as to what the answer of the
convention will be.
The leaders of our trade unior
movement have been thinking and act.
ing far in advance of any other group

Women are rapidly filing in the

into the service. After much hesita-
tion the boiler makers have accepted
the gals into their union.
The meat-salesladies will be taken
to warehouse fitted with all the nee
essary equipment for training in the
art of using meat grinder and slicer
welding a cleaver and handling big
sharp bladed knives to trim meat
without trimming some of their own
anatomy at the same time. Hair nets
white caps are musts, and nail polish
is taboo.
There will be an intensive campaign
on to train the girls and will the
Butcher Workmen be gallant about
accepting them into the union?
In 1941, $500 compensate injuries

work may result in fatal injuries.
In Canad, where it is impossible tc
find men to work, women are being

Hailed as an epic of warfare which will live in all history, the defense of Bataan peninsula and of the fortresse holding the entrance to Manila bay have been diverting large Jap forces needed el sewhere than in the Philippines.
 The adding to MacArthur' embattled ant smoke -begrimed army of battalion of b1uejackets and marines was welcome news and showed that perhaps not all of the men of Cavite and olongapo had been with drawn, but that they had been given post of honor with the defenders.
 Up on the Marive1es mount aims they are ent renched and no matter what strength the LAPS have hurled against them they have held firm. On one moonlight night a whole regiment of small boats moved down the coast, using the same tactics that had hurled the Britt sh back at Mala- va. The effort was to get in on Mac Arthur's flank and confuse the defenders, at the same time signalling for offen- sive on the central front.
 But the shore defenders and artillery opened up on the Japs, left scores of them struggling in the water and the few that made shore were quickly mopped up by the Philippines. Apparently at least one Jap warshtp managed to run thru the eight le strip of water between the fortresses at the ent rance of Manila bay.
 One intrepid United States torpedo boat skipper pi1ote his tiny craft at close to 80 miles an hour, swept down on the Jap Earship in the moonlight and launched two torpedoes which struck the ship. She sank.
 The attack was carried out directly into the glare of the warship's search lights and under the full power of her guns, but so skilfu1ly did the skipper maneuver that he was not struck and es- caped with all hands to tell the tale. NASTTS AQE NnT 0TFr
