men on this front to seek to accom-
plish such feat.
Nazis Have Had Four Setbacks.
The German command has had
four major objective setbacks:
/. Failure to take Moscow.
2. Failure to capture Stalingrad.
8. Failure to hold the Caucasus
and her oil.
4. Failure to storm Leningrad or
to starve it out.
Can Hitler fail again in Russia?
The Soviets, who are always real
lists, realize that Hitler can fail again
and possibly again. They don't rest
on the rhetoric of the presumption.
Great victories, they know, are
often made of many failures.
Taganrog May Be Key Point.
The open manner in which Hitler
is building up the central front
worries some of the thinkers. There's
a possibility of trick. He may also
be building up that strong sector of
the Taganrog line.
IT Hitler goes for the Caucasus
again he has to have Rostov, and
Taganrog isn't far away. If he
wants the Donbas back, Taganroe
would be place to strike from.
The Taganrog line must be
watched.
There have been some funny 60
lngs on up around the Leningrad
front recently and they may or may
not indicate a German push in this
direction.

NEW YORK, June 16.-W With a
large part of the German army
camped just beyond Moscow's front
yard-and ready to strike if you
believe in signs-you'd think the lit
tie people of the big old city would
be getting slightly excited as the
tension tightens.
Well, they aren't.
The Ivan Ivanoviches and the
Sonia Ivanovas of Moscow are pay
ing about as much attention to the
Wehrmacht on the central front
as they would be to we'll charged
but well controlled samovar.
A samovar needs watching. Just
keep it under watchful eye and con-
troll ard nothing much is going to
happen to any one or anything
except the samovar.
For weeks the citizens of Moscow
and the land between Moscow and
such Russian cities as Briansk, Orel,
Svesk, Kursk, Smolensk and Velikie
Luki have known that lot is going
on.

are well aware that as the flooded
Russian roads dried the Germans

The little people-the apartment

the navy, has had its say to the
sailors.
Know Hitler Is Desperate.
The Red army-more than any
other army in the world-has felt
the weight of German push. 1t
has been told that this summer the
weight may be greater than ever
before, that more tanks may come,
that more dive bombers may be
used, and that even gas may be
employed.
The little people know Hitler is
desperate Twice he has driven
deeply into the lands of their an
cestors when the warm weather
came. And twice when the cold
weather arrived the Red army has
pushed him back
This summer there is a strange
deliberateness to Hitler's p la n S.
They almost seem too apparent. He
seems to be building solidly for the
central or western front.
There is much speculation that
he may try to break through south

then turn northward and try to get
behind the capital.

union charged were fired for join
ing or assisting the CLIO "in con-
certed activities for the purpose OF
collective bargaining or other
mutual aid Or protection"
The company charged, however,
that Williams and Lloyd were dis
charged On April Is, 1912, because
they had protested against the en-
ployment of a Negro as crane
operator and had threatened to call
strike in the plant.
In upholding the c0naany's con-
tention on this point, the trial
examiner ruled:
CAS- found above, the reason
these employees Civilians and
Lloyd protested to the respondent
and discussed going on strike was
because the respondent has as
signed a colored employee to the
position of crane operator.
NOT PROTECTED
Although Section of the Act
protects employees concerted acti-
vities which have the purpose of
collective bargaining or other mu-
tual aid or protection such pro-
lection does not extend to con-
certed activities directed to other
purposes. The protest of Williams
and Lloyd if successful, would have
resulted in racial discrimination
rather than in collective bargain
ing or other mutual all or pro-
lection The undersigned is per-
| suaded and finds that their strike
designs were not of such nature
as to come within the meaning
and protection of the Act.
"Since Williams and Lloyd,s
conduct was OF type for which
the Act affords no protection, the
respondent was within its rights
in exercising disciplinary measures
against these employees for their
conduct"
Testimony before the examiner
had indicated that Williams and
Lloyd had protested to manage
ment when Otey Tucker, colored
employee, had been assigned to
-. work as a crane operator in the
| place of white worker discharged
the previous day for intoxication
Although the two men testified
that they had opposed fuckers
employment solely because they
wanted to make overtime by leav-
ing the crane idle, the examiner
ruled against them after it was
pointed out that Lloyd Williams
had attempted to have another
White man assigned to the crane.
NEGRO WORKER HIT
On April 2, 1y4., AsDy Wright
another white crane operator, was
laid off for 10 days for striking
the Negro crane operator when
he was sent to relieve him on the
machine. The strike threat develop
ed after the Wright Tucker Incl
dent. Following his dismissal on
April 16,1942, Lloyd was allowed
to resume employment on April
26. The company, refused, how
ever, to reinstate Williams.
Although the examiner ruled
against Williams and Lloyd in
the case involving the strike
threat, he found, from other in
cidents and testimony, that the
company had discouraged member
ship in the United Steelworkers
OF America and had Disseminated
against Williams because of other
union activities.
The parties may take exception
to the ruling within Is days and
the Board will then issue its de-
clsion and order in the case.
