IL it is true that New York City EN-
ployes and equipment went over TO New
Jersey and fixed up Ed Flynn's country
estate grounds, the Democratic national
chairman probably is surprised that so much
furore has been created by the episode.
The facts as to what really happened
still are in the realm of charge and counter
charge.
But from the viewpoint of Ed Flynn.
veteran Tammany boss. what if the city did
fix up his New Jersey grounds? Why the
fuss? Tammany politicians have been doing
such favors for their political brethren for
generations. while even the professional re-
formers yawned. What's little honest
graft among friends?
The politicians wouldn't know. But the
taxpayers do. Times have changed, and
even honest" graft isn't popular.

At this stage of the war we
get q fair picture. The war
sill be prolonged or may be
lost by Anglo-Saxon AFRO
sance, race discrimination and
eolor prejudice, political dick
sring for the labor vote in this
country.
Statistics from the labor de-
partrnent show that since the
United States was declared the
arsenal for the DemocracieS,
about thirty million work days
have been lost by strikes in
aefense work-about ten thou
sand years. Convert this time
INTO guns, planes, tanks and
ships, and you will understand
what has caused us so many
and serious setbackS.
The vote on the Anti-Labor
Bill before Congress shows how
completely the American peo-
pie are aroused over bias labor
legislation.
