Don't snicker," groaned swann, "this is serious. We magicians are face to face with a crisis and a good many stunts may be out for the du- ration unless Donald Nelson finds 1t won't hurt the war effort to let us maintain our equipment"
 Specifically, Swann and his fellow prestidigitators are concerned about clothing regulations. They do not mind the loss of cuffs.
 Costume Essential
 "What chilled us to the marrow" said Swan, twas the clear indica~ ton that we no longer could have special Things and special inner and outer pockets in jacket and trousers. Without those, most of us might as well work in our shorts"
 So saying, Swann absent-mind- edly--or so 1t seemed-drew a haH1d@ full of cards from behind my ear.

LABOR HAS SHOWN 1T CAN WIN THE SCRAP

Labor HAS SHOWN III CAN WIN The SCRAP
A MERICA'S UNIONS have done more than any
other group to build the national scrap pile
Here are just few examples of what has already
been accomplished by labor organizations:
The Railroad Brotherhoods have combed the
railway properties to find rail and scrap material
and have forwarded the results of their surveys to
the WPB Labor Production Division.
The Brotherhoods' searches turned up 15O
old locomotives in 2 railroad roundhOuseS and
backshops; Brotherhood officials said the idle
engines had been there as long as 10 years. In
another roundhouse they located more than 73, 125
tons of iron rails which not being used. They
also reported stretches of track no longer in use,
and forgotten carloads of rail
In Seattle, AFL Teamsters, on their own time
manned more than 1000 trucks to collect $500
tons of scrap on March 13 of this year. In July,
collect 10 tons of rubber. In Seattle last August
250 Teamsters outside of working hours drove 25O
dump trucks to collect scrap metal and rubber
throughout the city.
More than 500 C1O members, led by the Trans
port Workers Union, spent all of one September
day collecting scrap in New Orleans. Members of
the United SteelWorkers of America, who are
most directly affected by the shortage, went even
further. USA locals made survey of their plants
and yards to see what scrap metal was lying
around and in several instances uncovered large
amounts which were Immediately listed for sal
wage
The USA members did not stop with this. They
even removed the brass pin sections from the old
union buttons and forwarded them to their ma
tional office for scrap collection.
In Cumberland, Nd AFL and ClO members
joined with civic groups in collecting more than
a million pounds of scrap which were. sent to the
nations steel mills while the $4,000 in proceeds
from the scrap sale were turned over to the USO
and the American Red Cross.

THEY MUST BE ORGANIZED

SPEAKERS AT American Federation of Labor
~ department conventions in Toronto, empha-
sized that millions Of additional women will be
needed in industry, as more and more men
go into the armed forces. Already great numbers
of women are serving in industries hitherto vr-
tuay closed to them.
This large-Scae movement of women into in
dustry presents a challenge to the labor move
ment which it will ignore at its peril If the mil
lions of women workers are not organized and
educated in the principles of unionism, trouble is
certain.
AS |. M. Ornburn, secretary treasurer of the
AF,L Union Label Trades Department said re-
Gently:
Imagine what an appalling condition of en-
ployment will exist if these women do not join
labor unions and are exploited by unfair employers
who are always ready to take advantage of work
erS by reducing their wages, increasing their
hours, and ignoring healthful and favorable work
ing conditions"

LABOR DRAFT NOT NEEDED

PAUL V. McNUTT, boss Of the War ManpoWer
Commission, says a draft Of labor is inevitable
Frances Perkins, Secretary Of Labor says it is not.
McNutt'S statement reflects the growing
propaganda put out by some Government officials
for RECOMMENDATION Of labor and the entire populace
in the interests Of the War program They seem al
most to think thai until the Government is given
the Fascist-like power to put worker in any place
it sees fit, the war effort is doomed to failure.
Secretary Perkins believes that short cuts in
production, constant upgrading Of new workers
under skilled supervision, the inhltratiOn Of in
creasng numbers Of women in light war industry
and the apprenticeship and plant replacement
training programs will obviate the necessity for
drastic legislation to regulate the placing of work
erS in war industry.
Controls such as proposed by McNutt would
place tremendous strain ON democracy and demo-
cratic processes. Labor hopes there will be no
necessity for them. 1t believes that the present
system Of placing workers in Jobs can fill the need
for war workers. if given the chance under intelli-
gent direction

BUY BONDS AND HELP AMERICA

ONE DUTY WHICH all citizens have in common
~ is to buy bonds. Those who have more income
should buy the larger bonds, while those who have
less should buy the smaller ones. Those who have
least can buy savings stamps and accumulate them
until they can be exchanged for small bond.
Why this obligation? First, because this is a
war to maintain that personal freedom which has
made America a land Of opportunity. This is some
thing that every citizen, from the highest
to the lowliest Secondly, if the huge amounts Of
war bonds necessary to finance this war are pur-
chased by individuals and held by them we shall
have erected the surest possible barrier against in
fiation through war financing
If we as individual citizens do not buy these
bonds the government will be forced to call upon
banks which will accept them as bank deposits
emitting the Treasury to draw upon these banks
by check for payment to war contractors. Business
in this country is financed by credits or bank
deposits. If this is not controlled within sound
limits, whatever else we may do to control lnf1a-
tion will be in vain. Every billion which the gov
ernment secures by depositing bonds with COM
mercial banks means an increase in paper credits,
form Of printing press money.
There are employed now at gainful work in
the United States approximately 4OOOO,OOO per-
sons with incomes under $1,000 who will receive
about S75 billion in income. Let each Wage-ealner
in this group set about Systematically saving in
addition to arranging with his employer to invest
a fixed proportion OF his wages in savings stamps
or bonds This will mean actual sacrifice. But these
sacrifices will help to finance free institutions for
the future and will keep our finances sound for
peacetme needs.
Price control is only a limited area of imitation
control Unless our monetary and fiscal policies
are also geared to the same purpose we shall not
be able to control initiation. Remember, Il primary
step is to get bonds into the possession Of indi-
vidua citizens who will hold them as investments.
Let each member Of organized labor do his full
part

SAFETY FOR THE WORKER

SAFETY FOR THE Worker is a useful pamphlet
~ published by the u. S. Office of Education pre-
pared in collaboration with the Division of Labor
standards, u. S. Department of Labor and in
tended primarily for students in vocational schools
and defense training classes. 1t is illustrated with
graphic pen and ink drawings. 1t describes the
principal sources of hazards in industries and
workshops, and how safety training, safety de-
vices, and safety consciousness can work together
to do away with accidents.
If every war industry worker and every union
plant safety committee, individually and coec-
lively, followed and insisted upon the simple safe
ty rules here set forth there would be many fewer
accidents. Much precious time would be saved,
many units of work and pounds of scarce materials
salvaged, and the most valuable asset Of all =
skilled manpoWer - would be preserved for the
task in hand
The pamphlet can be ordered from the Super
intendent Of Documents, Washington, ID. c., at a
discount of 25 per cent on orders of 100 more.
The cost per copy is cents The public vocational
schools and training classes may obtain copies
free from the Office Of Education, Washington.

WHEN LIEUT.. Gen. Ben Lear addressed the

he stated that American war casualties might con-

used the statement, he would probably do so "ofl

COMMENT ON WORLD
EVENTS

America = notorious throughout the
world for profligate spending of human
lives in automobile traflic--is at last
reducing the death toll
August traffic fatalities We're down
to 2,310, the lowest figure for any
August since 1926, the earliest year for
which national monthly totals are
available, says the National Safety
Council.
If this cut in deaths is not world
news, what is it? The discouraging
thing about it is that the decrease
came not because American motorists
voluntarily drove much more slowly
and carefully to save lives, but prim-
arily because they were forced to re-
duce speed and their driving mileage
by wartime restrictions.
Recognition of the necessity for more
careful driving undoubtedly played a
part in the reduction of the death toll
factor.
To cite figures, the traffic toll came
down a record-breaking 40 per cent in
August from the same month q year
ago, the National Safety Council re-
ports This represented a saving of
/ $50 lives from the all-time August
nigh of $3.50 traffic deaths recorded
last year.
The traffic toll for the first months
of this year dropped 21 per cent from
the same period last year-a saving of
1920 lives. The S-month total for this
years was 10, $50 against "a 10 for last
year.
The sharp downward trend in traffic
fatalities is general throughout the ma
state reported an increase in August
for the S-month period
Even the heavy reduction in the gas
rationed Eastern SeabOard states was
eQualled or exceeded in other parts of
the country.
Records of almost 400 reporting
cities show that fatalities in cities of
10000 or more population dropped Off
36 per cent in August from the same
month a year ago, the safety council
says.
The urban (city) traffic toll in most
earlier months this year had not fallen
so rapidly as the national toll. This
has been attributed to sharper curtail-
ments of long distance travel in rural
areas, plus the building up of centers
of war production activity in predomi-
nately urban areas.
Cities showed an average reduction
of II per cent for the first months
of the year. Rural fatalities fell off
approximately One-fourth.

War has brought ''birth-celar" to
Europe. A famous European maternity
hospital, the one at RigShospitalet,
Copenhagen, sent Il doctor to Finland
in August, according to the National
Tidende, in order to study maternity
hospitals under war conditions. As a
result an underground, bOmb-prOot
maternity hospital is expected soon to
be con tructe d at RigShoSpitalet
Hitherto only the mortuary was kept
underground.
