Enough Gas Is
Assured Workers
On War Work

Washington, d. C.-The Office of
Price Administration pledged in pub
lie statement that despite gasoline IA
tioning in various sections of the ma
ton, workers in war industries will be
allowed sufficient fuel supplies to take
them to and from their jobs
The statement was issued after a
visit to OPA headquarters by a com
mittee representing the Washington, ID.
c., Building Trades Council, including
Presidenting G. +. Preller and Secre-
tary John Locher.
'ThOuSandS of workers on war con-
struction jobs in the East Coast gas
ration areas, who need their cars not
only to drive back and forth to work
but also to travel from job to job said
the OPA statement, "are assured ade-
quate supplies of gasoline for these
purposes.
Many of these workers are EN-
plOyed in the ratiOned area on Il tenn
pOrary basis, and are concerned over
the quantities of gasoline they can
get under rationing conditions.
Because of lack of housing fa-
cilities near many construction jobs,
workers have to be lodged several
miles from their places of work. Also,
skilled wOrkmen, including electri-
clans, plumbers and carpenters, have
to transport their own tools, have
making use of their cars essential. AS
soon as one job is done, they have to
| travel to a new one perhaps at some
distant point.
''The gasoline ratiOning regulations
permit supplemental ratiOns of gasO-
line whenever they are needed fol
cars that must be driven in pursuit of
a gainful occupation. Supplemental
rations may also be issued to migrant
workers who need their cars to travel
from job to job.
''ApplicatiOn for additional supplies
of gasoline is to be made at loca
ratiOning board. The local board is
authorized by OPA to issue ration
cards providing for the purchase OF
the necessary quantity of gasoline"

Abraham Lincoln.
Memorial Day this year is fraught
with deepest meaning to every Amer
lean. Memorial Day! The day set
apart to honor our soldier dead! In
many homes throughout the country
that need of honor to our soldier dead
of one close and dear. To everyone it
means honor and reverence for those
who have fought the battles of our
united nation, giving their all.
For them the battle is done They
have found perfect peace, but the
ideals for which they fought still live
i'm the hearts of each one of us, ideals
symboliZed in the scarlet blossoms of
those Memorial Day poppies.
These Buddy Poppies, worn on that
day which means so much, bring back
the thought of those who sacrificed so
greatly. They bring consciousness
of those disabled veterans ito whom
we owe infinitely more than our graft

hearts that gratitude is deep and will
ever abide.
The V. F. w. Buddy Poppies are
made by disabled and needy veterans
ment hospitals-and the constantly
growing success of the Sale has now
made it possible to give occupation to
the men throughout the greater part
of the year in poppymaking.
This year the Sale proceeds will not
only be used for disabled and needy
veterans of previous wars but can be
made available for the welfare of
soldiers, sailors and marines now with
the Armed Forces and their depend

The Veterans of Foreign Wars re-

Service Of Labor
Pushes War Output
Green Tells Council
Delivery Date OF Flying
Fortresses Doubled Since
Pearl Hurbor Attack

Washington, d. c. (ILNS).-A re-
port on war production, showing that
American labor is working with all its
heart and soul for victory, was sub
mitted to the American Federation of
Labor executive council as the council
opened its quarterly session here.
Presenting the report, President Will
liam Green of the federation declared
that America is now truly the great
est arsenal in the world and that
production figures received from gov
ernmental agencies and labor unions
are "astounding". Amazing increases in
the output of planes, ships, guns, tanks
and ammunition since Dec. Z We're re-
vcaled, he said.
"The Government is understandable
cautious about releasing this informal
ton but | can assure you it offers nc
comfort to our enemies. On the con
trary, our present production adds III
to the doom of the Axis powers he
said.
LabOr's Devotion Cited
"All Americans can take pride in the
tremendous job labor, industry and the
Government have done in so short q
time" said Green He added:
by the time our production facili
ut-producng our enemies by a wide
margin and victory will be assured
Speaking of labor's part i'm the wal
production effort, the At'L head said
IL cannot emphasize too strongly
that Americas vast progress on the
production front would have been i'm
possible without the loyal and devoted
service being rendered day in and day
out by millions of American workers
Their production achievements ant
their spirit is unmatched anywhere il
! the world
Plane Output Scars
Reporting on specific fields of wa
output, Green said that the deliver.
than doubled since Pearl Harbor. More
planes are now being produced eacl
month than in the entire year of 1888
when the program of military aircraf
got under way, he reported.
Tank production this year, he toI'
the council, has surpassed the outpu
for the entire year of 1871, and Amer
ica is now exceeding the Axis in tani
output.
Reporting on other production fields
Green said:
despite shortage in materials, ire
mendous progress has been made II
shipbuilding. Warships and m8rchan
ships are being launched on schedule o
! ahead of schedule.
Staggering increases in the produC
ton of guns are noted each month
especially in anti-aircraft guns. Th
rate at which explosives are brin
produced is many times what it wa
at this time last year
New war factories are being com
pletcd daily far ahead of schedule
Military establishments and war houS
ing projects are going up at miracu

Federal law, ne hOlQS.
The ruling is of particular impor-
tance to state prisons. Federal prison
ers are already producing war goods.
Under the ruling, the labor of about
125.OOO prisoners and machines worth
S5O.OOO.OOO will be made available to
the war effort.
Purpose of Laws
Federal laws relating to interstate
transportation of priSon-made goods
had for their purpose the protection
of free labor and free enterprise from
competition by prison labor
Since, however, the private capacity
for war goods is already taxed to its
limits, the use of prison labor cannot
be held too harmful either to ordinary
labor or industry, Bddle stated
Restrictions concerning prison-made
material are laid down in laws of
May, 1880, June, 1884, and October,
1910, but in all these Biddle found
latitude for the use of these goods in
wartime.
III 'HlCdSt, III IilloiS Lynn, ShB'i
intcndent of the Central Howard ASSO,
citation, II 4l-year-old prison-welfare
agency. said that for several months
the state prisons have been ready for
war production but needed an inter
pretatiOn of the HaWes- Cooper law
prohibiting interstate shipment OF
priSOn-made goods.
Now" Dr. Lyon said, prison in
mates will start producing shoes and
clothing for the armed forces, helmets

for parachuteS such as are now being
turned out at AlcatraZ.'

events" as "a milestone in the long
term rehabilitation program for pris
