Ohio Workers
Receive $6l,5O9.31
In Back Wages

Columbus, O. - Back wages
amounting to SCI, ,509.31 were
paid to 1926 central and north
ern Ohio workers in April un-
der requirements Of the Fair
Labor Standards Act, William f.

has announced.
The amount represents the diff
ference between what the work
ers were paid since October 1898
and what was due them under
the law. Restitution was paid
voluntarily without the necessity
of legal action in all but one
case.

Here are some suggestions
that will help you sweeten your
days of sugar rationing:
Dried fruits contain plenty of
natural sugar. Dried apricots
and dried peaches make good
snacks just as they come; cook
ed, they make desserts that don't
need much sugar.
When you stew fruits, add the
sugar toward the end of the
cooking period. 1t takes less to
sweeten them that way. Adding
a pinch of salt, too, will help
bring out the sweet taste.
Serve salads with canned or
fresh fruits as desserts instead
of cakes, pies or puddings.
Make your gelatin desserts with
fruit juices for sweetening.
Above all, don't waste sugar
by putting too much in your cof-
fee cup, leaving some undissolv-
ed in the bottom. Try using less
on your cereal, too. You NAV
find you like it just as well.

Unemployment


War means that whole indus
tries and thousands of plants
must change from civilian to war
production. Many plants must
close down to retool and others
to search for war contracts. Mil
lions of workers find themselves
caught by these dislocations.
Shall thew seek other Jobs in war
production or stand by until
their employers get going again?
For many there is no choice.
The rent must be paid, the fami-
ly fed and colthed, fuel purchas-
ed. These dislocations are not
confined to one industry or one
locality. They extend from coast
to coast in all kinds Of indus
tries, from refrigerators and
stoves to hairpins and toys; to
all kinds of occupations, from the
salesman to the speciality retail
er, to the stove mounter and the
metal polisher.
Employers organizations took
the lead in developing opposi-
tion to the administrations emer-
gency proposal on the ground
that it was an attempt to feder-
alize unemployment compensation
They. are joined by a number of
governors and state administra-
tors of unemployment compensa-
ton, who declared that their
states could meet the problem.
By defeating the emergency ap-
preparation they have accepted
an essential and ominous respon-
sibility.
The provisions which the fed
eral government proposed to make
possibIe-supplementary aid by
the federal government-would
have increased state benefits by
20 per cent and would have made
possible the payment of benefits
to every eligible individual for
twenty-six weeks.
The importance of this provis-
ion for flat duration is evident
since under variable provisions
in two states rs per cent of the
workers have been cut off from
benefits before they found new
jobs. The proportion Of those
who exhaust benefits does not
fall below 28 per cent even un-
der the uniform provisions of
other states.
The benefits paid under state
laws are not large enough to
meet the living expenses of A
merican families. To prevent ac-
emulation of debt, hunger and
want on the part of the victims
of the changeover, proper pro-
vision must be made to maintain
these workers until the plants are
ready to use their services to help
win the war. Any other policy
breeds discomfort and a feeling
of injustice.
A similar job crisis will mark
the end of the war. Existing pro-
visions will not be adequate to
care fo rthe victims. The effec-
tive and lasting way to be rea-
dy to meet the problem is to
write into our Social Security
Act provisions to tide workers
over the various emergencies
that will befall them. The time
is past when American workers
can be turned out to face starva-
tion.-American Federationist.

1912 Auto Dies
ToBeScrapped
For War Metal

Because of shortage of
nickle steel, $60,000,000 worth of
1912 model automobile dies will
have to be scrapped as salvage,
it has been announced by George
Weymouth, chief of the WPB
industrial salvage section.
"The Automobile Council for
War Production has been in
formed that this huge inventory
of dies will have to be moved"
Weymouth said. "The difficult
tax problems involved will be
worked out by the council and
the WPB regional office"
He said that a lag in the sal
wage drive had caused the shut
down of 10 more blast furnaces,
representing a loss of 100000
tons a day in the production of
steel.
Under the order, dies for re-
placement parts for 1912 cars,
now on the streets, will not be
scrapped.
Weymouth addressed 600 De-
troit industrial executives at a
meeting called by the Detroit in
dustrial salvage committee.

PERFUMED WINDS

Perfumes float in each zepher at dusk.
Sweet pungent mnts of the evening air
Clover and rose and violet and musk
Perfumes distilled with mmortalles rare.
Waiting through daylight to whisper of heaven
Like loved hands caressingy gentle in dreams,
Ladened with sweetness of altar the leaven;
The herald of twilight on valleys and streams
Winds coming softly, with perfumed breath,
Sway STOPPING grasses in verdant fields
Touching the cheek as fairy wings, or death
No haste. Yet sacred and final it steals.
WEAKNESS slips away with Gods evening shades
When this balsam tent-like houses the SOUL
Winds hurry on leaving sweet curtains of haze,
And perfumes bewitching DER calm senses roll.

Hunting Season To
Open November 20

A later hunting season for
1912 was established by the Ohio
Conservation and Natural Re-
sources Commission, last week
when it tentatively adopted reg
ulations governing game and fur
bearing animals. While the reg
ulations will not be officially
adopted until the May meeting
of the Commission, it is expected
that the rabbit and bird season
will begin on November 20 in
stead of November Is.
One reason for the setting
back of the opening of hunting
season is that the later date, if
weather conditions are normal,
will aid in the reaction of tular
emia, since colder weather is
said to be a factor in the elm
ination of the disease.
The commission changed all
of the hours affecting hunting
and trapping to conform to the
Eastern war time. Under the
tentative regulations set up the
rabbit season will extend until
January and the bird season
until December 5. The squirrel
season was left as it was last
year with the state divided in
two sections.

The daily monitor leader. [volume] (Mount Clemens, Mich.) 1942-19??, 1942-11-19
BY PETER EDISON

Joe Curran, two-fisted presi-
dent of the National Maritime
Union, has just recently repeat
ed his charges that ships carry
ing war supplies rom u. E. east
coast ports to the battle fronts
were being lost because they
were badly loaded, and that
brings up a few bits of back
ground on this situation which
are not too we'll known, but
should be.
Curran first made these char
ges last April. He printed them
in his unions newspaper, The
Pilot, and he came down to
Washington from New York and
spread them before the House of
Representatives Committee on
Merchant Marine and Fisheries.
At that time he listed eight ships
which he charged had been
loaded badly, and there Is no
evidence that there have been
other cases Of the kind since
then.
Proof on the eight cases Is diff
ficult to establish. All eight Of
the ships Curran listed did run
into trouble after they left u.
S. ports. One was torpedoed and
one has been given up for lost.
Several ran into storms. One
had mechanical breakdown. One
went aground. Two did have to
come back to port and be re-
loaded.
But when it comes to pinning
dawn all these disasters to the
one cause of bad loading, not
even the insurance companies
can definitely fix the blame.
Giving Curran the benefit Of
a doubt and admitting all his
charges are true, you should
take into consideration that
these are eight cases out of per-
haps thousands.
So you begin to look else

There are a lot of TECHNICAL

claim of Curran that the east
coast should have a government
acknowledgement Maritime In

iency. the claim of the east coast
that its longshoremen load more
cargo per man hour by working
larger sling loads, and the coun-
ter claim that the east coast now
operates on only a basic one
shift, eight-hour day. making
the time of ship turn around in
east coast ports much longer
than on the west coast.
When the War Shipping Adj
ministration first took over the
supreme command of ship load
ing there was some belief that
the government should step into
this situation. Now official poll
cy seems to be to let the situa-
ton alone till after the war.
