pavanjem Luceove rubrike posto
da Sc Il Moi pise "spornim po-

vom 'Here the Gavel Fell'' ali

pisana malo slikovitijim jezikom

ismejavale razne vladine agencije

gresman) j njihovo labavo ruko-

Pored toga sto je rubrika isme-

Izvestaj E. I. du Pont de Ne
mours kompanije otkriva da su
ii "trgcvci smrti' profitirali, "a
april, mai juni owe godine, $14.-
816,186. To je cist profit, to je
ostalo nakon sto je kompaniia

panija imala "a ista tri meseca
prosle godine.
citajuci tai izvestaj mi smo Sc

rezultat prvog svetskog rata da

AUG. la, STH ANNIVERSARY
OF SOCIAL SECURITY LAW

Washington, d. C.-August Ia is
the eighth anniversary of the signing
of the Social Security Act, a law
passed by an Overwhelming majority
of both parties in both House and Sen
ate. On this same date, August IA,
1941, the Atlantic Charter, the fifth
plank of which pledged 'the fullest
collaboration between all nations in
the economic field with the object of
securing for all improved labor stand
ards, economic advancement and So
cial security" was promulgated by
President Roosevelt and Winston
Churchill
American labor is specially inter
ested in this anniversary because it
falls so near the date Of the introduc-
tion of the Wagner Murray -DingelI
Bill in Congress - labor's bill -
which would expand and improve the
social security program. The anniver-
sary will be marked by radio pro-
grams, news releases, special articles,
and speeches throughout the country
by Government and labor leaders.

Damn Congress Sparingly
(From the Trades Unionist,
Washington, ID. Co.

One of our most popular pastimes
seems to be blaming Congress for all
our ills, and some of its critics are un-
questionably sincere.
Congress, you must remember, is
you voters who elected each member
to his seat. You are responsible for his
actions in our national legislature. If
he is wrong you are wrong. And if
you made a mistake when you voted
for him you can correct it in the next
election.
But to blame Congress in a whole
sale manner, as is done by some citi-
zens and many newspapers, ridiculing
it for actions which may or may not
be just right, is to weaken our demo-
cratic form of government.
Congress is US, and we alone are
responsible. We can't abolish Con-
gress without running our govern
ment. We can criticize one of it's mem
bers, but we should not believe that
Congress as a whole is at fault.
The average member of Congress is
conscientious in his endeavors to serve
his country and his state. Being,
usually, only an average American, he
occasionally makes mistake, just
like you and US.
However, this Congress of ours is
the bulwark of our democratic form
of government. If you will do your
part and vote intelligently for candi-
dates eager to carry on the work of
your government we have little to
fear from dictators.

from under the dictatorship and
opened the way to a transient regime,
preparatory to peace and a complete
overhauling of the political, economic
and social structure of the country.
