To Save Lives
Dear Elsie Robinson:
Immediate mobilization Of
Americas is and 19-year-old
youth is imperative, if for no
other reason than TO protect
youth itself. They do not have
enough time for practical and
protective training when drafted
at 20.
The boys that are Is could Sc
cure two years of training be-
fore they face the desperate
realities of war.
Do not think / am indifferent
TO the sacrifice this entails, but
this is certain--if the govern
ment gives this extra training
TO 18 and 19-year-olds in the
immediate future, there will be

THIS WEEK, Col. Augusta

formation of a band and glee

active in civilian defense work,
were now being made.
At a recent meeting, Fowler
Smith. director of music in the
Detroit public schools, and Ar
thur II. J. Searle, supervisor of
high school music, offered their
support in organizing the band

more lives saved, more boys re-
turning home after the struggle,
than if we wait until they reach
their twentieth birthday.
Since our young men have TO
go some day, why don't we give
them all possible experience IN
warfare so they may have a bet
ter chance 10 defend them
selves? Now Is the time 10
act.
In the past we've been too
late. Let's not be too late now
for il may cost thousands OF
precious lives.
And we may also remember
this-under army training they
will have far less chance TO drift
than they would in civilian life.
They will be kept morally
straight. mentally sound, and
physically fit. The army will
furnish a discipline and protec-
ton which their parents all too
often fail 10 give them.
Sincerely yours,
John Har Hal,
14l0 Shoemaker Ave,
Monessen, Pa.
Wholesome Discipline
I don't like to agree with that
letter. I'm a mother myself and
I've seen many young rascal
through his difficult teen years.
Something in me yearns to
keep those years as happy and
safe as possible for every one
of our boys. And yet / know
that protection and pleasure can
be insidious poisons, that they
often wreck more young lives
than they save. :.
And so while l pray with all
my heart that these youngsters
of IS and 10 may never see war,
l would also be grateful If they
could know, for a year or two,
the wholesome discipline OF mill
tary life and the sense OF re-
sponsibility that goes with 1t.
Too Much CoddIine
We Americans knew that dis
cipline once in private life. 1t
was a natural part of our de-
velopment.
Now the machine age has
eliminated it, has made us be-
lieve that youth should be cod
died, saved from the struggles
their parents experienced. And
even before the war we saw the
vicious consequences of such a
philosophy.
There are too many juke
boxes in America.
There are too few bugleS.
War is a damnable thing. But
peace, without struggle or chal-
lenge, can be equally demoraliz-
ing.
And so I believe it's as inn
portant to make young America
worthy of its land and fit for
its service as it is to keep the
Japs and the Germans out OF II.

Men Who Lead Labor:

Joseph Kendrick, B years old, president of Local l15, Bridgeport Carpenters Union, and graduate of the Chicago Institute of Engineer ing, has volunteered for the armed forces and led his group, all vol unteers, to camp.
 That's another way of leading labor.
 Kendrick has been a member of the Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners for 12 years. He used his book and trade to pay his way through the engineering institute. He served Local ll5 for two years as president and one as vice-presi- dent and was its delegate to the Bridgeport Central Labor Union. His friends gave him the sendoff he earned. He is unmarried and left his mother and sister behind.
 Joe brings something besides his trade and his union loyalty to the army, he became a crack skeet shot as member of the Mohican Rod

 Centralizing stations in all cities are expected to be set up to facilitate the interchange of freight by companies on pro-rata basis. This will have to be done to comply with that part of MT.

 NATIONAL REGULATIONS
 The Unions are pressing for the passage of a bill now before Con. gress which would help nationalize regulations as to loading, Sunday work, migratory limitations and other factors creating bottlenecks. These trade barriers erected by the 48 states have always been head ache for the drivers and have been opposed by the carriers. At this time, according to Eastman, they are a menace.

 Labor Union

LUOOT OntOn
 Federal Local No. 2llO3, Bridgeport Corset Workers Union, is now negotiating its new contract with the LaRe- sista Corset Company, with the Warner Brothers Company, corset manufacturers, agree ment up for renewal at the end of the month.
 Credit is due Mrs. Sadie Sullivan, president and busi- ness agent of the Local, for the improvement in working con- ditionsp brought about by the Union since l933 in both these factories. The LaResista firm has already granted a lO% wage increase which went into effect April l with another 5% raise scheduled to begin De- cember l. The first signed contract reached with this firm on May 30, l94l, resulted in an initial lO% advance. In little over a year the em- ployes will have had their wages increased 25% in all.
 CONDITIONS IMPROVED
 Conditions have also been im- proved with the union contract as- surfing that all girls not working will first be rehired before any new help is brought in; that girls shift ed to new jobs will be paid at the average rate earned by them over the previous 13 weeks on their old job while learning; and time-and-a- half after eight hours in the day, after 40 in the week, for Saturdays, Sundays and all legal holidays in Connecticut. The Union collects dues only from those employees who have worked at least l6 hours weekly.
 REMINGTON DRIVE
 Albert Weisbord, AFL organizer in charge of the Remington Arms drive, is holding meetings of the key men to add to their effective ness inside, and visiting contacts. He is also organizing the elevator operators and chambermaids of the Stratfield Hotel.
 CARPENTERS
 Eric Boyer is acting as business agent of Local 115, Carpenters, while Business Agent Harold Bar ker is on vacation in California. Michael T. Minotti, president of the Bridgeport Building Trades Council, reports steps are being taken, in consultation with the of- ficers of the Westchester Building Trades Council, to force the out Of-town contractors into line.

Much Larger Doses
So far as the consumer is concerned
the prescription looks like "the same
mixture as before-but in much larger
doses" The great diversion dam of
war needs already has impounded more
civilian products than is realized. The
war will soon be reflected on the drug

auto dealers.
Odds & Ends :.
Consumers will have to make sacri-
fees, but the OPA is making every
effort to see that they don't rise until
the present stocks in the hands of

rise will be slight, if any there's
