LOUD TALK, LITTLE SENSE

A Louisville, KY, police judge has
been getting in the headlines by bel
lowing that 1--WE are not going to have
strikes here while the war is on if
can help it." He was hearing the cases
of seven striking truck drivers charged
with disorderly conduct.
His Honor apparently forgot that
strikes are perfectly legal in this coun-
try and he was taking in lot of ter
ritory when he attempted to outlaw
them by police court case.
The judges outburst is the kind of
stuff the nation can do without. In
stead of making for unity and uninter-
rupted production, it has just the op-
posite effect, stirring up resentment
and anger and leading to ill feeling
on all sides.

COMMENT ON WORLD EVENTS

petually to his utmost effort if he
wants to get tolerable hourly wage.
For outstanding performance excep-
tional rules may be made and bonuses
granted. The application of this
scheme permits every kind of injus-
tice, keeps all wage earners in per-
petual insecurity as to the amount of
their incomes and hands them over to
arbitrary decisions.
I'm the long run this pro-
cedure must disturb the will to
work and lead to further drop
in production" the International
Federation of Trade Unions COM
ments.
Fun, not fear, when the siren sounds
that's what the National Recreation
Association is advocating for air raid
| alarms. The fun is to be provided in
emergency recreation kits designed to
insure boys and girls, young people
and adults against "air raid jitters"
from hours of strain and anxiety.
The proposed kits would include
simple, popular games and play equip
ment for groups gathered in homes,
schools, apartment and Office buildings
to wait for the "all clear" signal. They
are described in three newly published
leaflets available from the National
Recreation Association, 315 Fourth
Avenue, New York City.
"There is no better way of sustain
ing the family morale and peace of
mind than by playing together" ad-
vises the home kit leafet, "When the
Siren Sounds" Among play supplies
suggested for a home shelter ROOM
are children's toys, books, games, puz-
zles, playing cards, modelling clay, bean
bags, chalk and pencils, and a portable
battery radio.

FRIDAY, MARCH 6, 1912.
ISSUE STILL ALIVE

A $300,000,000 Observation-Disclosures
sored program to increase unemploy-
ment compensation payments to work
ers deprived of jobs by conversion of
plants to war production has been re-
jected by the House of Representatives
Ways and Means Committee. The pro-
gram was backed by all branches of
organized labor.
The committee decision kills the bill
for the present, anyway, but it hasn't
killed the issue of adequate unemploy
ment benefits for workers made idle
by wartime changes. That issue is still
alive and will have to be met, whatever
members of the House of Represent
atives think.
The bill was win -the-war measure,
as it provided for the training of work
ers for war jobs while they were wait
ing unemployment. Congress has done
everything possible to help factory
owners and management change from
a peacetime basis to a war basis. 1t
should be equally ready to aid the
workers to make the same change.

Draft Boards Instructed
To Defer Essential Labor

Washington, D. C.-Local selective
service draft boards were again re-
minded that workers are just as essen
tial to the winning of the war as front
line troops.
Selective Service Director Lewis B.
Hershey told the boards to give every
consideration" to workers in classify
ing new draft registrants. Appren-
tices who have served year or more
in trades essential to war production
should be deferred wherever possible,
Hershey said.

CZECH LEADER URGES
ALL-OUT WAR EFFORT

New York City (ILNS) Warning
that "things are going to be very bad"
in the next six months, Jan Masaryk,
Czechoslovakian leader, declared here
that every person working for the
cause of the United Nations must "go
120 per cent"
Masaryk, Vice-Prime Minister and
Minister of Foreign Affairs of the
Czechoslovak Government in Exile,
said that the next nine months would
be extremely important and "that
we've got to produce now"
While expressing his strong conf
dence in victory, he advised Americans
not to think the japanese and Ger
mans are going to crack up.

BAD PLAN

Fay w. Hunter, chief of the Farm
Placement Section of the u S. Employ
ment Service, is quoted as saying at
Chicago that it may become necessary
to draft school children from the sew
enth grade up to meet the farm labor
shortage.
This seems foolish talk, especially
in view of the recommendations just
made by four federal agencies, includ-
ing the very U. S. Employment Service
for which Hunter works. The recon-
mendations, made in the form of a
Statement of national policy" are de-
signed to prevent the exploitation of
children on farms in the name of the
war emergency Children under 16
should be employed only in case of
dire necessity and then only after the
U. S. Employment Service had found
it impossible to provide an adequate
farm labor supply, it was urged.
Most children in the seventh grade,
mentioned by Hunter as a starting
point for recruiting farm workers, are
we'll under 16.
The emergency is not so acute that
young children need to be drafted for
farm labor. Citizens who have the best
interest of their nation at heart will

Nathan Strau Assails
Foes OF Slum Clearance

Washington, D. C.-With parting
blast at foes of slum clearance and
low-cost housing, Nathan Straus re-
signed as U. S. Housing administrator.
"The ownership and operation of
slums," Straus told President Roose-
welt "is still one of the largest and
most profitable industries in America.
This industry has decreed that the
successful USHA public housing pro-
gram must stop; it has decided that
the hour to strike is now. 1t is deter
mined to end the USHA programmed
because it is a failure but because it
is success"

"These people are desperate" he
said. "They are extremely well pre-
pared. Hitler in his heart of hearts
realizes, whatever Goebbels tells him,
that with most of the world against
him he cannot win. The Japanese
know they cannot do this thing if they
don't do it quickly. So they are going
to do their worst in the next few
months"
Terming the war the most important
struggle in the history Of humanity,
Masaryk said:
at is my considered opinion that
this is the very last chance that Provi-
dence has given us to straighten our
house. If we don't, we will go back
to mechanized dark ages"

Nor does it count the vast numbers
engaged in selling defense bonds and
stamps as volunteers.
This is a peoples war. 1t will be-
come more so day by day.
If you've escaped so far, don't get
the idea that you will continue to
escape!
But who wants to? Nobody who is

If you've not found service you

organization and organized effort, a

Union Executives Plan
Labor Red Cross Rally

New York City-The executives OF
all organized labor groups and union
local teams are planning rally to be
known as Labor's Red Cross Moblllza-
ton, to be held early in March at Web
ster Hall. The program will portray
labor's contribution to the war in in
dustry and civilian defense, and the
importance of the Red Cross to civilian
and military life.

N. Y. Factory Employment
Off, Except In War Plants

Albany, N. Y. (ILNS).-The num-
ber of persons employed in New YORK
state factories dropped 1.5 per cent
between the middle of December ana
the middle of January, Industrial Com
missioner Frieda S. Miller reports.
Total weekly payrolls rose 2.2 per cent
during the month. AS in December,
increases in both employment and pay
rolls were reported by most firms IN
defense industries while decreases, due
partly to seasonal factors, were noted
in most industries producing goods
for civilian consumption.

WARS Unsuitable demand for more
wv and more production brings in
creasing exploitation of German la
Dor. More work for less pay is the
Nazis' aim, reflected in the latest de-
velopment in their wage policy, in
tended to reduce the wage total while
at the same time increasing the amount
of work done.
1t is hoped to secure this end by a
complicated system, subtly worked out,
of new regulations, the International
Federation of Trade Unions says. In
this connection a well known electro
technical works in southern Germany
is particularly exemplary" according
to the Nazis. Wage scales are adjusted
to production. Each worker is as
signed to one of seven activity groups.
For women and young workers there
exist three special wage groups each.

ance and behavior in the workshop are

class is first of all possible at the ear

ever, only at six monthly stages.
Reduction to lower wage level is
not linked with any individuals time
limit and can happen from one week
to another.

The individuals performance is cal.
culated from the state of profits of the
business. The estimate of the value OF
the work, in true Nazi fashion, is left
almost entirely and exclusively to the
employer. Even if no technical justi
fication exists for any kind of wage
reduction, ''bad behavior" alone car
wipe out in eight days the fruit o.
six months intensive work.

lated that they drive every worker per

The first plastic rowboat to be made

There will be no more Lucite or SIM
