"A LIFE, DRESSMAkERS'
UNION ASKS MEMBERS

New York City ULNS).-Dressmak-
ers' Union Local 22 is answering the
call of the Army and Navy for 2OO,-
600 blood donors.
Local %, the 25OOO member affiliate
of the International Ladies' Garment
Workers Union, has asked the Blood
Donors Service of the New York Chap
ter of the American Red Cross to set
aside Saturday, Feb. 81, as the first
i'm series of Local 30 Blood Donor
Days
Thousands of dressmakers are being
urged to Give Il pint and save "A life"
says Charles $. Zimmerman, manager
of Local % and a vice-president of the
ILGWU.
Zimmerman said that the union has
just been informed by the Red Cross
that the Army and Navy's ban on
blood contributions by Negroes had
been rescinded.
The blood donations, Zimmerman de
clared, are in line with the policy of
full support for Americas war effort
enunciated by the executive board of
the union.
Responding to that declaration the
union has set for itself the purchase Of
50 100000 in defense bonds, which is
10 per cent of the S25,OOOOO0 goal set
for the entire membership of the In
ternational Ladies' Garment Workers
Union by President David Dubinsky

COMMENT ON WORLD
EVENTS

Hitler, MuSSOllni and Stain have
frequently attacked and derided de-
mocracy in the United States for it's
failure to stop mob violence and for
unjust treatment of, and discrimina-
ton against, minority races.
Undoubtedly the dictatOrs and their
spokesmen will seize avidly upon the
recent horrible lynching at Sikeston,
Missouri as proof of their contention
that democracy is decadent system
which fosters lawlessness against the
Negroes and others.
| The SikeStOn episode is not q thing
to be lightly passed over by the ma
| ton. 1t may be the fOrerunner of SINH
lar things to cOme-thingS that will
disgrace the nation as much as did
the outbreaks of mob violence and de-
nial of civil rights during the first
World War and in the years immedi-
ately following.
Mob Murder" is the fitting term
used by the Washington, d. c., Post
in commenting ON the Missouri lynch
ing. The Post denounces the occur
renee in strong language, but language
none too strong for the subject. 1t
points out probable implications of the
act and sounds a warning to the ma
ton that it can't afford to ignore.
THE state of Missouri has now to
answer for as sickening display of
mob violence as has occurred in a
long time," says the Post, recalling
that mob of several hundred persons
forced the Sikeston JAIL dragged out
a critically wounded prisoner and
| lynched him with revolving fiendish-
ness.
1T was, the Past continues, "an act
on par with the diabOlical murders
perpetrated by Nazi and japanese
gangsters in their more ruthless mo-
mentS. Prompt prosecution of the lead
ers and members of the mob has been
promised by the Governor but retribu-
| tom, however severe, will not make up
for the mob's despicable action or for
its lawless challenge. AS a nation we
are now committed to wiping out SINH
| lar mass laWieSsnesS abroad. That it
should appear in our midst is depress-
| ing proof that mob murder can be a
universal phenomenon
Then the Post goes on to warn of
the future, saying:
Fortunately, recent instances of it
| al.
Last year there were but four lynch
| ings throughout the country. That was
| four too many, but the record is a
decided Improvement over that of a
few years back.
"Penologists, however, have already
noted that with the war has come a
mounting disregard for the law and
consequently Il rising incidence of do
nestle crime. 1t is disturbing mani
festation and one which, when trans
lated into mob action, may lead to
savage incidents not unlike that at
| SikeStOn.
Drastic law enforcement will help
prevent lynchings in some instance
but the only truly effective preventive
is community refusal to countenancc
these sporadic outbreaks of mass bar.

SMEAR" CHARGE REFUTED

Il1lS PAPER last week plllored the VlnsOn Com
mittee report linking increase Of trade unior
assets with profits made by corporations on de-
Tense contracts as another "smear labor attempt
The editorial mentioned the purpose of unior
funds and the reasons for their increase and sale
that it was up to labor and its spokesmen to dis
prove the profiteering charge by ''presenting the
facts in their true light"
President William Green Of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor has done exactly that in smash
ing refutation of the committees charge. He pre-
sents facts and figures to show beyond doubt
that the committee majority engaged in despic
able attack on labor-an attack unj Justified, "con

very little water is used. Although
most closed units can be raised to
permit removal ana cleaning of the
drip pan or reflector, you should be
guided by the manufacturer recon-
mendations in that regard.
After each use, and as soon as the
oven has cooled, all spilled food
should be removed and the lining
wiped with damp cloth. To clean
the oven, first take out the heating
units if they are readily removable
(your instruction book will tell you).
Then wash the lining with soap and
water, using a mild abrasive il NEG
essary. Keep the oven dry and do
not use it for storing food.
An electric range requires little
maintenance. However, it is good in
suranee to have it checked once
year by competent serviceman who
will make certain that the heating
units and thermostats are working
satisfactorily, that the vents are
clean, that the wiring is in perfect
condition and that the range is level.

TIME passes quickly, and find
l. that it was about year ago that
! told you what to look for when
buying an electric range and how to
manage it TO obtain the best results.
Today, war needs prevent the manu-
facture OF any more new ranges for
general sale until peace comes again.
Also, because Of the critical mate
rials involved, repair and replace
ment parts for existing units may
become increasingly difficult to OBJ
tain. Accordingly, If you are the
fortunate owner of an electric range,
! want TO give you some suggestions
for keeping it in top operating con-
dition.
Wash the outside enameled surface
OF your range, when cool, with
warm soapy water each week-im-
mediately wipe off all fruit juices
and other acids. Do not Dosh the
heating units. Unless it is extremely
dirty, you need not use soap and
water on the bright metal trim-i1
it is chromium, merely rub with a
clean dry cloth, using no polish or
abrasive of any kind; if it is nickel
rs on older ranges, use a good metal
polish.
Avoid letting spilled food dry or
harden on your range-wipe it of
at once. Should it fall on open-type
surface units, allow it to burn off
do not use a stiff brush or sharp
instrument to remove it. Closed sur.
face units may be cleaned with steel
wool or other abrasive, provided

it lies primarily in cooking it at
low temperature. Remember the
need for low temperature in egg
cookery, whether they are to be
boiled, souffled or meringues. a
high temperature causes the egg
whites to become tough and leath-
cry and to shrink. To cook an
omelet therefore, the skillet should
be hot when the eggs are poured
in but the heat beneath it should
be kept low as the omelet and the
oven should be only moderate

The omelet should be served as

The special appeal of salads

If they are to be kept longer in
an automatic refrigerator, they
should be placed in a covered jar

moisture in the cold dry air.
If creamed soup must stand
after being made, place it in a
double boiler over hot water. 1t is

 The International Red Cross, all ready has representatives in Shang- hai, Tokyo and Hong Kong, and presently is angling for a delegate ir the Philippines. The Manila out look, according to Red Cross sources here, is good, since Japan has granted requests for delegates in the Far East.
 American, Canadian and British Red Cross are pooling resources and working comparatively in China, Ja- pau and the Philippines, while Aus tralia's Red Cross will ship supplies to the South Pacific and the Neither lands East Indies.
 NO WORD FROM
 DELEGATE IN SINGAPORE
 There has been no word from the International Red Cross delegate in Singapore, however, and as far as 1t is known here, no extra provisions have been made for the care of AL lied prisoners there.
 Prisoners in China have good prospects of supplementing their slim camp fare. A substantial quantity of medical supplies and 2000 tons of grain were stored in Hong Kong before the city's fall and in Shanghai were 50000 bags of cracked wheat. This grain was saved from confiscation and has been released for distribution to im- prisoned Allied troops.
 If the Japs abide by the Geneva Conventions rules for the treatment of war prisoners, Americans in their clutches should be fairly well of, as the Convention is very specific on such factors as degree of confine- ment. food, medical treatment, pay for labor recreation, and the recep- tion by prisoners of parcels contain ing food, books, medicines and simi- lar items.
 All information concerning pris- oners is transmitted through the International Red Cross Commit tee, which is composed entirely of Swiss citizens, or through neutral power appointed to protect belliger- ents' interests in enemy territory.
