The Role of Labor
Labor Day has come and gone and
again the nation must realize that
American workers are in the forefront
of our war effort. Army, Navy and
War Production Board officials en-
phasized that without the enthusiastic
support of labor we can't win this war
And every one of them conceded that
labor is giving much support to the
war effort in full measure.
1t was unnecessary for government
officials to stress the need for remain
ing on the job and avoiding strikes at
any cost This point was driven home
much more forcefully by the leaders
of labor themselves. Seldom have we
heard a more impassioned plea for
self lf-discipline and continuous produc-
tion than that voiced by A. F. Of L.
President William Green.
1t would be well for every member
of the American Federation of Labor
to give heed to Mr.. Green's words.
He made it abundantly clear that
there can be no excuse or Justification
for any strike for any cause now.
Those who go on strike are striking
at themselves, their own safety, their
own future and the welfare of all
Americans.
There is no need for strikes now to
obtain square deal The govern
ment, in close cooperation with labor,
has set up machinery and tribunals to
guarantee justice to any group of
workers who consider themselves mis-
treated.
But the main thing to remember, as
Mr.. Green said, is that strikes now
help Hitler destroy us and deprive US
OF the very right to strike.
If ever there was a time when labor
had to take grip on itself and main
tain perfect discipline in the ranks
this is it.
' o oioW AHiclI ICd, let > SHOW the
world, that we can do it!
A Word to Congress
President Roosevelt did not disclose
the details of his wage stabilization
program in his freside chat to the
nation. He said he would stabilize
wages at the same time Congress gave
him authority to stabilize farm prices
at parity. He needs legislation to act
on farm prices. But he does not need
additional legislation to deal with
wages.
Despite these obvious facts, poll
ticians in Congress already are talk
ing of tacking on wage stabilization
clause to the new farm price bill. This
is supposed to placate the farmers.
Actually, it is just cheap politics.
Worse than that, it is politics as usual
1t would be grave mistake for
Congress to monkey around with wage
stabilization by legislation. This would
be grave and unnecessary departure
from the paths of democracy. If work
ers are willing to stabilize their wages
voluntarily according to the wishes of

be imported. Heather now is being
used in the manufacture of brushes
and brooms, which has become a
fiourishing industry in villages in
Drente and North Brabant. The weekly
output of these shops is about one
hundred thousand brooms and brushes,
but this is insufficient for the tremen-
dous demand since the heather fibers
wear out quickly. Accordingly, there
is rush among the people of the
heathergrowing areas to go into the
new business.
Films are now being made of paper,
the results of which are said to be of
reasonable" quality. Amateurs, how
ever, are advised not to develop the

entrusted to skilled photographers.

Gently complained that of the 100 tons
of human hair which Uttered the floors
of 1000 Netherlands barbershops last
year, only 6 per cent had been used
as substitute for the horsehair which
can no longer be imported. Conse-
quently the planned large-scale pro-
duction of rugs and similar articles
woven half of human and half of ami
mails hair has been failure.
The authorities recently started a
prize contest for the best substitute
for rubber bicycle tires. From more
than 1000 entries, three designs were
selected to receive one hundred :
guilder prizes. One consisted of a
steel hoop covered by synthetic can
vas called "thiocol." The other two
were hoops with wooden blocks.
mounted on spring coils, fixed around
them. The press announced, however,
that it will be impossible to put these
"ersatz" tires into large-scale produc-
tlon because of lack of materials. and
as result even the substitutes will
be strictly rationed.

the government, certainly it would De
eratuitous insult to force it upon
them by law.
Yet the facts are that the President
of the United States has come TO an
understanding with the leaders OF Ia
Dor upon the question of wage stabill-
zation-an understanding that IS ap-
parently satisfactory to both SIDES.
The President made it clear IN his
talk that he isn't worried about put
ting wage stabilization into effect.
The inference is that this problem is
settled. Then why should Congress
now proceed to muddy the waters!
We hope the leaders of Congress
will do just what the President asked
and keep their fingers out OF the
buzz-saw.

Declare Beverage Distilling
May Be Continued; Stocks
To Be Kept At Safe Margin

Washington, D. C.-M. j. McNam-
ara, WPB official directing conserva-
ton of beverage distilleries to pro-
duction of industrial alcohol, declared
following his return from the Chicago
meeting of the N. A. B. C. that it is
extremely unlikely" that liquor
stocks will be permitted to drop be-
low "a safe replacement margin"
Mcnamara said there is no need for
scare buying. Other WPB sources IN
dicated that distilleries making in
dustrial alcohol and high wines for
defense may be permitted to have 30
day runs of beverage alcohol in the
near future to keep up aging stocks.

Cuts Family Expenses

Our loan number 730289 is new
post office employee who pre-
ferred working for the Govern
ment even at a smaller income.
However, his bills and debts
were more than he could handle.
After reading our ad, he came
to us for the money just as others
had done. His loan was made
and his debts were paid in full.
To his pleasant surprise, his loan
payments were cut in two and
he had nearly twice as much to
live on as before. "Just like

Well, there were lot of Labor Day
speeches, most Of which could have
been recited in advance by most
listeners.
That doesn't mean that they weren't
good speeches. By and large they
were.
But there were certain things that
had to be said, obviously. They were
said
The speakers then wiped their
brows and went home.
Labor is doing the producing. 1t is
turning out the stuff 1t is manning
the jobs that have to be manned if
fighting men are to be kept up front
But som chow, in all the
speeches, something seems lack
ing. Up to this point we have
war on our hands.
What we've got to have, if we are
to win, is a crusade.
The difference between war and a
crusade is something like this: A war
is something you have to win if you
can; crusade is something that by
heaven you WILL win, though all the
furies of hell are loosed against you
Your SPIRIT as well as your shoot
ing eye is in crusade. The fires burn
and you forget everything else!
Somehow we don't seem to know
yet, as a people, that our most sacred
rights are at stake in this war.
We win this war or our very souls
will be choked out of US by brutal
and heartless conqueror.
History tells US of Holy wars.
This is THE holy war of all time.
This is the testing of our faith in
freedom, our hatred of enslavement.
In THIS war we shall have to be
as ruthless as our enemies, because by
its outcome we live or die.
1t is not that our physical bodies
may be lost. 1t is that our freedom
will be lost; that our enemies stand
for enslavement in it's most hateful
and most hated forms.
1t takes the awful and beautiful
profanity of the sailor to pile up the
righteous wrath we must feel against
our enemies.
1t takes some of the blunt and
meaningful words Of the English Ian
guage to spill forth our horror and
hate for the beasts that stand against
US and force US to turn our nation
into an arsenal and into armies.
We haven't used those words
enough.
When we feel deeply enough the
enormous meaning Of this war we
shall begin to think and feel and talk
in the plain terms of men who know
what they have to do and are willing
to do it.
Some things we have to keep
straight among us as we fight this
war. But once the deep conviction
strikes into US that here, in this tt
tanic struggle everything is at stake,
we shall pass over the piddling things
that too often now stop production and
