THE SPIRIT or FIGHT
Nv Dan Neusom

They thought they had him down
for good
And all his hzht was zone:
But as tho passing seconds sped.
He fought toward the sun.
The cruel oppressor kept him down
And thought his end was near.
But still he fought couraeeously
AGAINST the pressing fear.
But even though he chose 10 fghi.
The boticm pulled him down.
And there one brave soul was lost.
Never TO be found.

thought that anybody was being
shielded or any major facts suppressed.
The United States was not organ
lied on December z to report a major
engagement through official channels.
We did not have the facilities for MAX
ing known the facts of reverse within
a few hours, as did Mr.. Churchill on
British misfortunes near Malaga. We
shall do much better in the future,
when the men commanding our armed
forces fully realize the necessity of

The dictator nations have frequently
beaten their adversaries to the gun
with news that didn't stand up when
all the facts were known, and we can
very we'll do without that variety of
victory. 1t should be evident, however,
that with all of the technical news

we can quickly establish supreme
reputation for speed, completeness,
and accuracy of our reports, be they

Going to Sea Again

At the beginning the super-board-
ers had some employers and some
government officials on their side. But
Lundeberg pointed out that more
boards would hamper our war efforts
and that existing wage boards and
government agencies could handle
every issue satisfactorily. He said the
union representatives and ship owners
could both do more for winning the
war by helping man the ships than by
spending their time in endless wran-
Cling.
President Lundeberg ended by say
ing that as soon as he could wind
up the pending conferences he intended
to go back to being sailor for the
duration of the war, he wanted to join
his fellow seamen who were risking
their lives delivering necessary car
goes between the United States and
the front-line fighting in the Pacific.
The CIO left-wingers were alone in
their demands for more boards at the
conclusion of the conference.
