NOT A FARSIGHTED ATTITUDE

Will all businesses be ready to return to peacetime activi-
ties with the same good will they had before the war? We
doubt it.
Too often, these days, when a customer asks a clerk for an
article, he is met with a curt, There's a war on" A bit of
courtesy and a simple explanation of shortages would go a long
way toward making the customer feel better. He'll remember
sharp words later.
Most of us are long on customers and short on labor and
goods these days. But, granting that, we should all think of
tomorrow" Good times or bad, plentiful goods or shortages,
cooperation and courtesy have always meant much in the sue
cess of a business. Humility and patience are better than the
arrogance that one sometimes encounters these days.

Christmas Shopping Season
Here for Overseas Mailing

The Christmas shopping season il
here - even though the weather il
still warm.
Mailing of gifts for army and navy
personnel overseas must begin by
Sept. Is, if many of the men anc
women in u armed services are
not to be disappointed.
Christmas gifts may be mailed by
parcel post to army men and women
overseas only between Sept. IS and
Oct. Is. After the last date, such
parcels may not be mailed unless a
written request from the soldier for
the article is presented with each
parcel. No soldier should have to
ask for a Christmas gift; so gifts
must be mailed on time. The navy
also urges that gifts be mailed be-
tween Sept. Is and Oct. Is.
Reasons for the early mailing date
are: The vast distances that the
parcels must travel to reach our
men at war fronts and stations the
world over; frequent transfers of
thousands of men from location
to another, which means forwarding
of the mail and consumes additional
time; the necessity for giving pre-
ference to reinforcements, arms, mu-
nitions and medicine and food in
allotment of shipping space, which
mean that the shipments of
gifts must wait. And it is most ur-
gent that gifts be delivered to the
men in time for Christmas to keep
heir spirit high.

The Christmas season comes early this year for hundreds OF
Valley county fathers, mothers, wives and sweethearts If our
young men on the farflung battle fronts are to have the fullest
measure possible of the season, we must mail our gifts to them
during the next month. And the earlier the better. Even With
early mailing, we know of cases where some of our men on
combat fronts had a cherries Yuletide last year because of
congested mails. This year, more than ever, we must do our
Christmas shopping early. 1t must be done in time to catch the

Some Meat Values
Cut to Points

Rejecting an improvement IL civ
ilian meat supplies, the ration cost
of most lamb and bacon cuts, sir
loin steak, and rib roasts has been
reduced from n to two points for
September. In addition, several
variety meats also have lower point
values. Creamery butter increased
two points to IL points per pound.
Country butter, however, has been
assigned a value of six points per
pound. The purchasing power of
meats-fats stamps in September will
be a little larger than in August
because the decrease in meat point
values more than cancels the high
er ration cost of creamery butter.

So that credit for the bonds they purchase
through the Payroll Savings Plan may be
allocated to the states and counties in
which they live, and their bonds delivered
with the least possible delay, the Great
Northern Railway became an agency for
the Treasury Department for issuing
Series sc" bonds. More than $4,000 of
these bonds are issued every month at
the Company's offices at St. Paul. The
Great Northern is not reimbursed in any
way for this expense.
Through the Federal Reserve banking
system, every bond issued by the Great
Northern is credited to the quotas as
signed to the state and county in which
the employee makes his home.

The Third Wa Loan-starting Septem-

ourselves at the same time.
The Treasury Department has made it
clear that if the Third Wa Loan is to be
a success, common everyday citizens must
put a lot more money into Wa Bonds
than heretofore.
The quota assigned for the people of the

is the largest amount of money any Gov
eminent has ever asked of its citizens.
And the money can't be raised unless
eVerybody-rot just the other fellow

In every community where there are en-

LABOR DAY STATEMENT
OF SECRETARY OF
FRANCES PERKINS

American working men and work
ing women, by the millions, are toll
ing around the clock today that the
men fighting the good fight for their
country may have the weapons and
materials needed to overcome the pow
ers of evil which have so violated the
dignity of man and human liberty in
many parts of the world.
They are laboring in factory, on as
sembly line, in shipyards, arsenals,
mines and on the farms to maintain
a production record that never has
been equalled in the worlds history.
They are determined that that record
shall be set at higher and higher lev
els. They are determined to do their
full share in the job of winning the
war and winning a good peace.
Their determination is identical
with the resolve of all the people of
the United States and that is why we
are overcoming the Axis powers on
all fronts and why complete and
sweeping victory must ultimately
come to the United Nations, bringing
with it new measure of liberty and
opportunity for which all people long.
American working people dedicate
themselves anew to that cause on this
Labor Day of 1943. They have
pledged themselves to win the battle
of production by turning out in ever
increasing numbers the tools of war
for our soldiers, sailors and marines,
our medical corps, our fiiers and our
allies. They promise, to the enslaved
workers of Axis dominated lands, that
this production will help to break
their shackles and that another Labor
Day will find millions of them once
again enjoying the blessings of free
dom such as is the heritage of Ameri-
can working men and women and for
which our people can be so thankful
today.

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1943.
WAR PRODUCTION UNION JOB

WAX PRODUCTION UNION JOB
War production is not increasing
fast enough, the American Federation
of Labor warns, pointing out that be-
cause our military advance is far
ahead of schedule, the production pro-
gram has to be stepped up. This job
is up to organized labor, as 85 per
cent of war workers are under union
agreement. On the railroads, the per-
centage is virtually 100 per cent.
Munitions output must increase 40
per cent by next winter, even though
employment gains of only 10 to Is per
cent can be expected, the AFL saws.
1t emphasizes the obvious fact that we
must increase productivity and cites
the production lag in July as proof of
the urgency of the problem.
Management, unions and the War
Production Board" the AFL declares.
must get at the causes of this lag
and correct them. Some of the causes
are: Inefficient management in air
plane plants, shipyards, other plants;
production change-over to make more
long range bombers; manpower short
ages; bad distribution of materials
with leaks of scarce metals to non
essential industries; faulty handling
of the program of the War Production
Board; contracts cancelled because of
changing war needs, causing time
consuming change-over in production
plants"

ARMY SIZE LIMITATION

Paul V. McNutt, head of the War
Manpower Commission, says that the
general drafting of pre-Pearl Harbor
fathers after October l cannot be
avoided.
Commissioner McNutt is likely to
get jolt when Congress reconvenes.
Strong congressional opposition to
draft of pre-Pearl Harbor fathers is
manifest and bitter fight over the
issue looms. Legislation to prevent
such draft has been offered and may
be approved.
Though McNutt's order for the
fathers draft was issued more to
force fathers from non-essential work
into war industries than to force them
into the Army, the order again puts
Army limitation to the fore.
McNutt says there is an extreme
and critical shortage of labor in SIS
areas. AS result, vital war produc-
tion and transportation are tagging.
A page l story from the New York
Times illustrates the situation.

age is threatening the movements of
huge quantities of military and lend
