A WARNING
BY RUTH TAYLOR

For the past two months / have
spent the greater part of my time
travelling and listening. I've heard
such incredible tommyrot talked in
club car after club car, that I've risen
in rebellion at last! 1t is time that
some of the stuff and nonsense put
forth by unwilling Nazi agents be de-
bunked and brought out in the open,
so here are some of the stories l have
heard.
Labor is blacilmailing industry for
higher wages, and sabotaging the war
effort for it's personal gain, caring
nothing about our soldiers being with
out weapons" Who are these soldiers
but the sons and brothers of men who
work? Where are our younger labor
has been the official record of Labor
on productions?
"Capital is storing away great
profits from war contracts won at the
expense of the workers." Our tax laws
are no respecters of industry-and the
Treasury agents, like the Royal
Mounted Police, get their lawbreakers.
The sons of the rich fight shoulder to
shoulder with the sons of the poor in
this war.
"The Irish are SO busy fighting Eng
land, they won't fight Germany" Have
yOu read the list of heroes recently ?
U did hear one complaint. An Irish
friend of mine said they didn't have
a good choir any more-for five hun
dred boys from his small parish had
gone to war;
"The Jews are lodging army duty"
How the Selective Service cou d effect
this, they neglect to Say-but the real
answer to this lie can be read in any
casualty list. (Remember when you
read that only 4h of all Americans
are Jews)
THE Negroes are putting pressure
on the government for social equality"
What the Negroes want is the right
to fight and die as Americans for the
country that is theirs, too.
agrees with you) won't cooperate in
the war effort" Disagreement is not
disunity. You can't force Il free people
to think alike, but they are all ready
to fight alike for freedom.
"Our government is bureaucratic,
its officials parasites" Would YOU
rather have an autOcratic govern
Went? AS for the parasite charge, if
you have been i'm Washington recently,
you won't be able to imagine anyone
without Il keen desire to serve living
there on government pay!
These are only a few of the things
/ heard. You can add to the list. Stop
them dead with the truth when you
hear them-and let them stop with
you. They are enemy sabotage on the
home front-and we can all fight there.

NO TEASING. PLEASE
by LUCIA MALLORY

| A visitor was at little BettyS home.
and the threcyear-oId brought in her
sailor suit to show the lady. Her
brother was sitting on his fathers lap,
on the other side of the room.
The visitor duly admired and praiS-
ed the suit Betty liked SO WELL and
Betty was quite happy. Then Daddy
said THAI isn't Betty's suit, it be-
longs to Brother"
The visitor said ooh, is it Brothers
suit, Bettyy' The children were only Il
year and Il halfapart in age and
either might have worn it, but Betty
shook her head with Il troubled look
on her face.
Her older sister answered, at is
Betty's suit but Daddy likes to tease
/ her"
As little Betty left the room, the
visitor suggested that teasing was un-
wise. 1T spoils ii child's disposition,
she said
"Do you really think so?'' replied
the father. ~ have never found any
harm i'm it, and like to see how cute
she is when she says 1t is hers, and
sticks to 1t when she Is contradicted."
Yes, it is cute now, but when she
expressing her opinion to you, it will
not seem so cute" said the visitor. II
have seen parents tease their children
and encourage them to make deter
mined and often saucy rctOrtS, when
small, and then punish them for the
years older, not realizing that they
themselves were to blame for this bad
habit the Child had acquired"
Yes" said the older daughter, who
had been listening, "and besides that
ii makes a child angry, and then later
getting angry. | know that from my
own experience"
'When | was n child said the Wis
itor, my parents did not tease me-
but friends did, in order to hear me
argue. They thought IT was cute Of
me t0 refuse to be Swayed from my
convictions that dog spelled dog and
not cat and that cat was the only
proper way to spell cat. They did not
know that they were developing the
trait of argumentativenesS to Il higher
degree than was good for me, and that
against that tendency for Il long time
In order to overcome" It,"
"Well, who would suppose that n
little fun could do so much harm !!
exclaimed the father but when | stop
to think about It, | can see that with
out doubt You are right" And looking
lhoughtfully at his elder daughter he
said, II won't tease you any more
Anna" Then with n wry smile at the
visitor. he added, 'if | can remember! !!
"Naturnlly, | don't want to make
life harder for any of my children,
them sometimes. IL may be that som,
of the misbehavior of my boys is the
result of something that was unin
tcntonally done To them in the past
I'll have To think this over. Being Il
father Is pretty big job, isn't it,
Indeed it is" said the visitor.
Mothers and fathers are doing ON,
of the most important jobs that there
are to be done, yet often they thini
they have very small place in this
tragic world. 1t Is their work not
merely TO guard the lives entrusted t,
their care from all kinds of danger
both outside and inside the home, but
To teach their boys and girls how I,
meet dangers successfully for them
selves. For this to be done, confidence
in the teacher Is absolutely necessary
so the NO TEASING sign needs tC
be put up in every heart and home.

to manage both war production ana
the civilian economy. II voiced crti-
cism of the part larger corporations
are playing in the handling of war
contracts and was sharply critical of
the way the armed services managed
war procurement in 1919.
False Premises" Seen
In opposing compulsory service leg
islation. the committee said advocates
of such legislation argue that eStab-
liShment of the manpower agency
under Paul V. McNutt clears the way
for compulsory control over war
jobs
1T is said" the report continued,
chat we must face Immediately the
need for shifting large numbers of
workers from non-eSSential civilian
jobs into essential war jobs and that
workers are already proving reluctant
to make the shift. They must be given
Il prod if we are 10 hasten the eXpan-
sion of war industries required to meet
1913 goals
This argument is based on Il series
of false premises Those who are ad-
vocating this application of II strait
jacket are living in the past. Where
freeze orders and other attempts at
compulsion have been attempted they
have aggravated matters which needed
Il weil-rounded grasp of the problem
and not the employment of force
COmpuisiOn Aid TO Incompetent
The committee further said of ia
Dor draft proposals:
''tompulSion permits the use of
a big stick by those incompetent to
gain voluntary support for Il program
which commands respect and conf
dence. The drift in the direction
Of compulSion is an accompaniment of
the drift i'm the direction of control
over our war effort by ii limited mum
Der OF large corporations, many of
which are reluctant TO accept the cen
tralized direction without which the
overall job cannot he done.
They would not themselves expect
Ia run their own businesses without
such centralized control, but they fail
To understand that ii Is equally i'm.
portant in II modern war that it be ap-
piled to them by their government" ."
War Effort Held Endangered
Labor's stand for full use of the
facilities of small business and indus
try was backed by the committee in
declaring that crnterng plants in too
few cities imperilS the war program.
"LaZincSS and bureaucracy rather
than ineiicicncy' have prevented the
best use of small manufacturers
plants, the committee charged. OF the
results of this failure, the committee
said:
IF the drift now going on In our
war production program continues un-
abated, we can expect Il small number
of large American communities to
have gathered up the great majority
of all war workers. :. This commit
tee can readily forcsrc that IN annual

 One formation runs through Honshu, the main Japanese Is- land, and Bonin in the Marianas and Truck through Rabaul. An other is Kyushu, Ryuku, Formosa and the Philippines and Dutch New Guinea.
 Inside these lines Allied sea- craft are liable almost at any time to meet Japanese submarines and land-based planes which could somewhat restore her fleet to balance.
 The Allies list four more ships sunk or damaged today, bringing the total to 200, more than the Japanese had at the time of Pear Harbor.
