President of Local 755 says, "The
Negotiating Committee of Local

by Local 755, to gain further bene-
fits for our members"
The spirit of the membership
drive is mounting rapidly, and it
looks like the Defense Bond prizes
will be won only with the strong

Frigidaire Local 8O1 has invested
in the future of our country. Local
8O1 purchased Defense Bonds to the
total of $1,000. The Local was able
to do this by economizing, and
making every effort to contribute
to the defense of our nation. Local
8O1 is to be commended upon their
contribution to our National De-
tense.
"Win the War at Home as Well
as. in the Shop!" That is the motto
of Frigidaire Local 8O1.
If, in relation to the income Of
the Local of Frigidaire, the man
agement of General Motors would
purchase a like amount, the De-
Tense Funds of America would
benefit to a great extent. How
about it, Management?

U. 5. May Lease All

Plan Reported Under Way
To Combat Propaganda
Of Enemy Countries

The Federal Government, acting
through the once Of the Co-ordi-
nator Of Information. is preparing
to lease all time on the Nations
IL short-wave radio transmitters
and provide many programs for
foreign broadcasts, especially for
enemy territory, according to re-
ports here today.
Nelson P. Poynter. associate d.
rector Of the Foreign Information
Service in the o. c. l., Is In New
York making arrangements for the
plan, 1t was understood.
The plan, 1t was said. will include
increasing the power Of the stations
from $50 kilowatts to approximately
$500 kilowatts as well as erection
Of additional transmitters.
1t was believed the mechanical
operation Of the transmitters would
be kept under direction Of the pres
ent licensees, but the Government
will provide broadcasts for enemy
territories, as well as to countries
in the Western Hemisphere and
other areas where 1t is desired to
combat broadcasts by enemy coun-
tries.
The hours from 1 pm. to mid
night, it was said, would be anocated
to the once Of the Co-Ordinator of
Inter-American Affairs for broad
casts in the Western Hemisphere,
while the o. C. I. would direct
broadcastS to all other parts of the
world.
The Federal Communications
Commission permits the inter-
national stations to have unlimited
power, but has fixed q minimum OF
$4,000 watts. Some stations have
less than the minimum. Under an
order Of the commission these were
required to step up their power at
least so kilowatts by last July /, but
owing to the shortage of critical
materials needed in the manufac-
ture of transmitting apparatus of
such high power, the commission
postponed its minimum order in
definitely. However. it is expected
that means will be found to provide
the apparatus.

BEHIND THE SCENES

BEHIND SCHEDULE Americas
report on output released last week
TO snuff, according TO the officia
munitions production is still not up
by the War Production Board. Wal
material production in August fell
short Of the goal about Ia percent,
the report stated, and that followed
a July in which the figures was
some 7 per cent less than anticipat-
ed. Donald Nelson, w. p. B. chief,
subsequently revealed that Septemb-
err was not up to expectations, either
although official figures were not
yet ready for release. This is talk
ing in such relative terms as per-
eentages, however, and there's a
brighter side to he picture. For one
thing, Nelson admits that the policy
has been to keep production sched-
ules definitely on the 'too high" side
rather than leaving them comfort
ably within rcseh, because it makes
the government agencies and private
firms strive harder to attain the
goals. For another, August output
this year, in terms of tanks, planes
guns and ships, was actually three
and one-half times what it was in
the same month of 1941.
