Workers Buy
Is Million In
Defense Bonds

Washington, d. C.-Purchase
of $25, 100000 worth of Defense
Savings Bonds during the next
six months has been voted by
the General Executive Board Of
the international Ladies Gar
ment Workers Union, David Du-
binsky, President, has Informed
Secretary Morgenthau.
Arrangements have been made
with the Treasury Department
for the issuance of Defense
Stamp Savings books to ILGWU
100000 members. According to
the unions plan, each member
will pledge at least two weeks
earnings. Members who are un-
able to purchase Defense Saw
ings Bonds outright will buy
their Bonds on a weekly install
ment plan, spending five per
cent of their weekly wages for
this purpose.
This shows one practical way
in which a great organization of
workers can help to win the
war;" Secretary Morgenthau said
in commenting on the unions ac-
ton. This should be an exam
pie and inspiration to other SIM
liar bodies"

In special statement issued
from the White House the
President deplored the practice
of discharging workers some
times only because they have
fOreign-sOunding names, call
ing it "as stupid as it is un-
Just" He said such practices
were American and play
ed into the hands of the Nazis.
Informing his press confer
ence Of his proposed appeal,
which was made after consulta-
tion with Attorney General
Francis Biddle, the President
urged that it receive the widest
possible publicity.
Il am deeply concerned over
the increasing number of reports
of employers discharging work
ers who happen to be aliens or
even foreign-born citizens. This
is a very serious matter. 1t is
one thing to safeguard American
industry, and particularly de-
Tense industry, against sabotage;
but it is very much another to
throw out of work honest and
loyal people who, except for the
accident Of birth, are sincerely
patriotic.
"Such a policy is as stupid as
it is unjust, and both counts it
plays into the hands of the en-
emies of American democracy.
BY discharging loyal, efficient
workers simply because they
were born abroad or because

How do you read? How do
YOU listen? Are you carried
away by positive statements
without stopping to consider they
might have been made for that
very purpose?
Or-are you a free reader? -?
Can you study both sides calm
ly and collectedly and arriving
at your own decision after care
full thought and due considera-
tion of all the facts in the case?
If you can do that, you are
free reader.
Today there is a definite at
tempt being made to create
panic among our people by false
rumors authoritatively stated,
by vitriolic charges against
those in authority, by untrue ac-
cusations against various minor
ity groups, by a constant harp
ing criticism of anything and
everything, by mushroom tales
Of disaster and ultimate chaos.
This is definitely an enemy air
raid on the mind.
The wisest man | ever knew
used to say, whenever anyone
began to tell him anything
"State the facts. Don't charac-
terize." Apply that to propa-
ganda or to articles, or speeches.
Shear them of characterizations
and Of all statements prefaced
by the catch phrases "it is said;
everyone knows; they say;

left. You'll be surprised how
little it is in almost every case.
Analyze what you read and

mise with a demagogic attempt
to stir you to impatience or in

they have 'foreign-sounding'
names or by refusing to employ
such men and women, employers
are engendering the very dis
trust and disunity on which our
enemies are counting to defeat
us.
Remember the NaZi tech
nique: Pit race against race, re-
ligion against religion, prejudice
against prejudice. Divide and
conquerv
eve must not let that happen
here. We must not forget what
we are defending: Liberty, dec
ency, Justice. We cannot afford
the economic waste of services
of all loyal and patriotic citizens
and non-citizens in defending our
land and our liberties.
81 urge all private employers
to adopt a sane policy regarding
aliens and foreign-born citizens,
and to remember that the sons
of the foreigners they dis
charged may be among those
who fought and are fighting so
valiantly at Pearl Harbor or IN
the Philippines.
There is no law providing
against employment of aliens
except in special defense work
of secret nature, and even IN
such work the employer may hire
an alien with the permission of
the Army or Navy, depending on
the contract"

 Allied fighters and Douglas A-20 Boston bombers strafed landing areas at Sananda Point, four miles north of Buna and bombed and strafed Japanese positions near Oivi.
 For the third day in succession, two formations of raiders were dis patched to Timor. Dili, the islands chief town, was heavily damaged again and the enemy occupied vil- lages of Maobisse and Aileu, located close together in the center of the island south of Dill. also were bombed.
 The Timor raids were started by force of Hudson bombers which raided before dawn yesterday, strik- ing at MaobisSe and Aileu. Billy Mitchells followed in daylight.

 but even they dispute the time and place. If the records err, the mis- take is understandable, for one night stands have a disturbing ef- feet on the space-time concepts of show business.
 The official Who's Who version IS the apt one, that he was born July {, 1878, in Providence, R. I. Before he joined his sister Josie, in The Four Cohans" at the age of 10 he sawed a fiddle in orchestra pits. For all the melodies he composed m later years his formal musical knowledge never extended beyond a firm grasp on four chords in F- sharp. But he knew what people would whistle.
 He was a skinny youngster who didn't weight 100 pounds until he was 27. He was also iraScible when confronted by managers who did not appreciate his budding genius. If the Four Cohans got less than top billing, Georgie fumed and ragged, threatening that some day" he would buy the theater and throw the manager into the street. Yet his essential kindlineSs was so much part of the Broadway legend that the love which actors hold for him survived even the bitterness of the 1919 strike of Actors Equity Associa- ton, when he denounced and fought the strikers. The actors wrote special clause exempting him rom the necessity of compromising his principles by joining Equity.
 He had many fights. Critics who sneered at his early flag-waving came to cheer it and be cheered by 1t. Its culmination was 'Over There", which, like many another Conan song, "Just Dashed Off, was on the inspiration of a moment. A gold medal, authorized by a special act of Congress, was presented to him by President Roosevelt in 1940 in recognition of what that song had done to lift a nations morale.
 Hollywood, with which he had fought the only draw of his career, eventually honored him with a film biography in technicolm', something even Emile Zola didn't rate. James Cagney played the lead in Yankee Doodle Dandy.
 Cohan's first wife was Ethel Levey, star of vaudeville and musi- cal comedy in New York and Lon don. After dissolution of the mar riage, by which he had daughter, Georgiana, he married Agnes Nolan. daughter of a Boston mailman, in June, 1907. They had three chil- dren, Helen, Mary, and George M., Jr.
 A list of his successes as actor. song writer. producer, manager, playwright would be interminable. Two plays, "The Tavern" and Seven Keys to Baldpate," at both of which the critics groaned, still are played in stock and amateur productions. There are scores of other comedies and musicals which knew his sure touch.
 His partnership with Sam Harris resulted in Little Johnny Jones, Get -Rich-Q Quick Wallingford, Ut Pays to Advertise" and many other still-remembered hits which George M. wrote or rewrote.
 But the memory of such produc- tions, and songs like Mary" will ! fade like old playbills. The recol- lection of a gay blue o7c. :. tc-oy , tilt and the way cane was twirled will not survive another generation. What will remain will be a song which kept time with the quickened heartbeat of a nation at war.

 On the other Caucasian front. northeast of Taupse naval base on the Black Sea, the Germans were still falling back. and the Soviet high command reported that Red forces were annihilating Axis groups they had encircied. One of least 1000 men.
 Prisoners were quoted that the first German Alpine division had lost 50 per cent of its electives perhaps 5000 men. One company of the division lost 30 men in two days.
 The Soviet army organ Red Star said the strongest German attacks against stalingrad now were far less than the assaults at the beginning of the month. Red Star also re- vealed that the Germans had tried to advance by using smoke bombs in StaIingrad for the first time. They did no good.
 Tn the Stalingrad area, Soviet units repulsed attacgs." the noon colnfnunique said. Guards defend- ing a factory area routed several German groups attempting to peTle- trate to the rear.
 "On the southern sector of the city, Soviet units annihiiatdd i40 Germans and destroyed guns. West of Etalingrad, reconnaissance units penetrated enemy positions. blew up piIIboxes. wiped out 90 Hitlerites and returned safely.

 The new official will have au- thority to approve certain wage changes here, while other petitions will be forwarded to the regional office in Boston for final action.
 Employers, employees, and repre- sentatives of groups have been asked to contact the agent regarding any problems concerning the executive orders.
 Regarding the overtime regula- tions, Mir. Thurgeon pointed out that double time pay on the seventh day of work is mandatory, while time-and-a-half pay for the sixth day is not compulsory. However no double time may be paid in any case for the sixth day of work, he added. Much confusion has existed here regarding these rules, with work of local unions to establish double-pay schedules held up pend- ing further interpretation of the rules.
 Legal advice will be obtained re- garding interpretation of the or ders, the new agent stated, and ef- forts will be made to clear up all doubts that exist here,
 Similar offices are planned for New Haven, Hartford, Bridgeport and New London, principal manu- featuring cities of the state,
 A warning has been issued that violation of the executive orders will result ill severe penalties, and any uncertainty regarding changes should be cleared at the new local office,
