That's a matter of opinion, -

WHAT is
PATRIOTISM?
By RUTH TAYLOR

Our fellow workers in Canada
answered this question in their oiliclal
journal when they said "Patriotism is
shown, not in what you say about your
country, but in how you care for 1t. III
is most apparent in men who care for
their country by caring for The men
they work with: The men they wor"
for: The tools they use; The weapons
they produce.
Patriotism is caring for the men you
work Within not slackening on your
share of the job in working for the
good of all. not of Il few, discrlmInat-
ing against none because of class,
creed or color. 1t is that unity of pur-
pose and action that has made the
trade uRion-but the men you work
with are not just the men in your own
trade or your own Shop-they are all
the workers. whether they be of hand
or brain. in factories, Offices, or on
farms. 1t is the union of all workers
that makes united nation. Patriotism
| is caring for the men YOU work with.
Patriotism is caring for the men you
work for-and in war this means our
fighting men on land. on sea, and III
the air 1t means standing behind them,
hour after hour, day after day, that
there may be no let up in the steady
flow of the goods that keeps them fight
ing for us and for all we hold dear.
There are no abSenteeS except the
dead on battletields where bullets call
and roll" Il WoTker-poet wrote. Pa
triotism is caring for the men you
work for
Patriotism is caring for the tools
you use in being careful and not
waSteful. in saving, in eliminating
waste 1t means taking great care of
your finest tool, yourself, and in keep
ing yourself fit for the job ahead, that
you may give your best at all times.
1t means that your must not waste
your energies of mind on the diviSivc
by paths of the propagandiSts, that
you must be always ready, alert and
on the job Patriotism is caring for the
tools you use.
Patriotism is caring for the weapons
| "
that are your own safeguard. The
more you produce in the war effort,
the quicker can you return to making
those things which will improve the
standard of living for your own family.
The more you produce for the war eff
fort, the Surer will be your children's
future. The more you produce the
more of your own boys - your sons,
your brothers, your fellow workers
will return to live as free men in Il
free world. Patriotism is caring for
the weapons you produce
Patriotism is not Il phrase. 1t is ac-
ton. Patriotism is caring for Il high
principle more than Il person. kt is the
application of the ideals of unioniSm
among workers, to national life. Pa
trOtiSm is Il challenge to men who
care. Are you Il patriot!

Recently the admiral issued state

Quoting successful campaigns to reduce

the same time Admiral Woodward
urged labor editors to conduct indus

dents which, he said. cost the United
States more lives in the first year Of
this war than the Navy, Marine Corp;
and Coast Guard lost in battle"
Benefits OF Safety Stressed
In a recent issue of IL labor paper
appeared story about the admiral's
praise of the labor press and his re-
quest for an anti-accident campaign.
In the same issue the paper also car
ried Il story on industrial safety, which
read in part:
"A moment of careleSsneSs or fool

in which frequently more than one
person is involved, as result of which
gun, plane or tank or some fighting
material or equipment is delayed.

Williams said. She has noted distinct

At our next meeting on Tuesday,
June 18th we elect officers for the next

to be present to take part in this very
important matter. If YOU want officers
that suit you, YOU must come out and
elect them, not let others do it, and
then YOU spend the next six months
in the shops and the street corners
condemning the local and its officers
for any action taken which does not
meet with your approval. 1t is not only
your right but your duty to be part
of, not critic of our organization.

had voluntarily subscribed over 13 per
cent of their pay for war bonds.
This is "3 per cent more than the
government is asking from its citi-
ZenS,' the minority opinion stated, and
"shOws, without doubt, that workers
are highly paid and not suffering from
maladjustment otherwise, they would
not be able to over-subscribe their
bond quota"
The opinion was brought to the at

that the members of the board unani-
