Dairy Cows Off to the Butchers
When Mixers Go to War

When Mixers Go to War
OLYMPIA, Oct. s2S-Men who deal
in charts and graphs in planning
our national economy seem to have
overlooked some of the human ele-
ments, which are dominating factors
at times. One of these is the fact
that when there is no one left on
the farm to milk the cows, which
chore it must be remembered is per-
formed twice every day with no
time and one-half for overtime, Sun
day and holidays regardless Of wea-
Their, health and all human fralities
something must be done.
That something usually means
but one thing, and that is to send the
cows to the butcher The tragedy is
that these dairy herds are built over
years of breeding and cannot be
replaced over night. Let us hope
that the trend can be stopped be-
fore we find that there is no milk
supply for the military and civilian
population-which is sure to result
unless something is done properly.

a-half pay for consecutive SiXth-day
work, Frey said, was to block absen-
teeiSm during the preceding five work
days. which had been Il problem in
the >hipyards The purpose and effect
of double time for Il seventh conSecu-
tive work day, he added, was to put
Il penalty ON employers who will not
seek other means of turning out the
work which are less depressing on
output.
"A shipyard worker, who normally
does very heavy work, can possibly
work two seven-day weeks in success
sion in an emergency without lowering
his productive capacity" Frey said,
but beyond that he goes stale and
has to take time off to recuperate.
But under. this agreement, double
time for Saturdays, Sundays and holi-
days are out for the duration. The
AFL worker must not put in his five
full days before he can get time and Il
half for the sixth and six full days
before he can get double time for the
seventh. The result has been called
Il miracle of ship production on the
West Coast"

DAVIS REPLIES
TO KALTENBORN
Roosevelt-Hdters More In
terested In Beating The
President Than Axis

Elmer Davis. Columbia Broadcast
ing Systems star news commentator,
charged in broadcast March % that
Roosevelt-haters more interested in
beating the President than the Axis
were behind the drive to outlaw over
time pay.
Davis said the hackers of the drive
against the WageHour Law had
stirred up Il war within Il war to gain
their ends.
That Davis told his nationwide
radio audience, "is the war of certain
businessmen's associations and groups
and their friends in Congress against
labor unions and against an admins
tration which is friendly to labor.
This is called Il campaign against
the 40-hour week, but that is not much
more than slogan the slogan at
tempts to disguise as Il campaign for
more production what, is really Il cam
paign for lower wages"
Refutes Arguments
Analyzing the Spontaneous cam
paign against labor, Davis refuted al
most point by point the issues raised
by H. v KaltenbOrn, ace NBC com
mentator, in his demands for restric-
! tive labor legislation.
Davis wasted no time in taking apart
the arguments of the labor-baiters.
He pointed out that the men who are
backing the campaign have shifted
their line time and again as one after
another of their propaganda lodges
has been exposed.
First. he said, the antilabOr cam
paien was hung on charge that labor
was working only 40 hours week and
that strikes were hamStrngng wal
production. When those arguments Were
exploded by facts showing the work
week is well above 40 hours and strikes
at an all-time low, Davis said, the
bosses shifted ground and argued that
manufacturers couldn't pay overtime
Next came the cry that overtime pay
would produce initiation with Il dimin
ishing quantity of consumers goods OF
the market.
All these shifts added up, Davis
said, to "a campaign for lower wages.
Furthermore, Davis said, the cat was
let out of the bag by the suspicious
unanimity of newspaper editorials
against the Wage-Hour Law and Ger
tain industry spokesman.
The other day." he said, "a repre-
sentative of the Associated Industries
of Florida said to a Jacksonville civic
club: We are fighting two men, Frank
lin -. Roosevelt and John l.. Lewis i
he said anything about fighting Hitler
and Hirohito it seems to have ESCAPED
the notice of the reporters covering The
meeting" A~
That attitude, Davis said, abou
sums up the position of the Roosevelt
hatcrs 'whO are perfectly willing Il
get on with the war against Hitler an'
iIirolito. after they win their WA
against Roosevelt and the labo
unions"
You may not like Mr.. Roosevelt,
Davis added, but if he loses the wa
we all lose it with him"

Urges Civilian Production
Be Grdnted Smdll Firms
Big Business Is Tdking Ad-
vdntdge Of Conditions To
Liquiddte Competition

Washington, d. G. (ILNS).-A new
plan to aid small business, which is
vitality important to many communities,
has been proposed by Senator Robert
Nj. La Toilette of Wisconsin.
La Toilette urges that the Govern
ment arbitrarily assign to small con-
Germs the major share of necessary
wartime civilian production to offset,
in part, their lack of war contracts.
Declaring that big business" was
entrenched in the War Production
Board, La Toilette made the serious
charge that representatives of large
firms in the board are taking advan-
tage of conditions to 'liquidate" COM
petition.
"Thousands of small businesses are
being Strangled to death by Govern
ment red tape and NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
the Senator told reporters Despite
all of the eloquent lip service and the
rapid succession of defunct programs
on the part of the Government, the
average small businessman confronts Il
desperate situation
This was emphasized, La Toilette
said by the fact that up to February,
only S,23S manufacturing concerns
out of $4,000 in the country held
prime war contracts of $4,000 or
more.
He added that while some progress
was being made in sub-contracting
only 80 contracts had been made up
to that time with industrial pools into
which small firms had entered.
The result he contended, was that
big business was acquiring with Gov
ernment aid vast new plant facilities
which it would be able to convert to
civilian production after the war.
Senator La Toilette said he hoped
headway also could be made toward
bringing these firms into the military
production program through a smaller
war plants corporation which would
finance the conversion of small plants
and their participation as sub contrac-
1OrS.

Straight From
Washington
BY STEPHEN Nj. YOUNG
Congressman at Large, Ohio

Washington - Private Banks, smart
young Ohio soldier, wants his Congress
man to get him transferred from his
outfit in Pennsylvania-no fooling and
no delay. Private Banks doesn't care
where he is ransferred-Iceland, Java
or Australia, he feels would be Il
peaceful haven compared to what he is
i'm for unless he gets way from his
company commander.
Said company commander asked him
to cover a speech by Il senior officer
of his brigade. When Private Banks
returned the officer asked "Well, how
was that speech?' ''Terrible, sir"
answered the soldier, my baby broth
er could have written a better one.
You didn't miss Il thing by not going.

Arsenal
More than ever, this nation is the
arsenal of democracy. The situation is
directly the opposite to that of World
War |. In the first World War, no
American plane ever engaged in com
bat. though we heard Il great deal
about Liberty motors. All aircraft and
tanks operated by Americans in France
and Belgium were of French or British
manufacture With the exception of Il
few shells from our fOurteen-inch naval
guns, not single shell made in Amer
lea was fired in World War l. FOrtu

piled those necessary weapons and mu
ntions to the A. r. +. This nation al
that time did not possess the plants
nor tools for their manufacture. To
goal for 1942 in excess of fifty billion
dollars Our contribution of implements
of war during this year will exceed
the entire national income of the
United States in 1913. Furthermore, ha(
the IsOlatiOnists prevailed in their vote
against repeating the Arms Embargo
and the Lend-LeaSe bill, Britain would
nave been crushed long ago. We wOul(
now be fighting dictatorship aggression
without the help of the manpOwer OF
Britain and China-and probably with
out RuSSia's aid Our nation, with The
possible exception of Russia, is the
only one of the United Nations which
has the raw materials necessary t,

Sherman Act Invoked
Once again Arnold attempted to
utilize the Sherman Antitrust Act to
prosecute unions despite the repeated
declaration of Congress and the decl-
sions of the l.. S. Supreme Court that
the antitrust acts can not be applied
to trade unions.
Again and again Justice Goldsbor-
ough protested to Government counsel
that no citizen in the United States
was safe from Indictment by the De
partment of Justice under the reason
ing that counsel attempted to apply.
Attorney Joseph A. Padway, repre-
senting the indicted unions. also charg-
ed that this was just another case in
which Thurman Arnold was trying to
impose his own economic theories de-
spite the law.
History of Case
The case covered II period from 1893
to 1910. In 1888 the A. & T.. decided to
observe the spirit as we'll as the letter
of the National Labor Relations Act
and permit union organization of its
employees. District of Columbia labor
had fought the \. X l.. for 30 years
chiefly because it insisted upon I'M
porting bread from the low wage, non
union, area of Baltimore into the high
wage. union area of Washington. Whil,
the Department of Justice could not
find "A single bit of evidence To SlIS

that there must have been an ora

Labor Policy Upheld
Only one incident worried Justice
GOldSborough. That was the action ol
the Transfers i'm refusing to haul ;
particularly low-priced bargain brca'
from the \. x l.. bakeries in Baltimore
because it would have destroyed the
wage standards of District of 'oIum
