Declaring that if we win military battles without applying democratic principles to our problems at home we lose the peace, even if we win the war, Sterling w. Nudge, direc- tor of training and industrial rela- tions for the Socony-V Vacuum Co.,, New York, last night addressed the Industrial Foreman's meeting at the Women's Club, on the need for achieving democracy on the home front, in factory and office as well as fighting for 1t on the battle field.
 MT. Nudge pointed out that des- bite the shortage of skilled help in such industries as the brass mills. the picture is not too discouraging one for various reasons. He cited the hexibility of the human being who can be adjusted and trained along lines not previously familiar to him, and how the training of today for industrial work is done on a cooperative basis with the fore man and the worker laboring to- gether, planning together and each aiming toward the same goal.
 Secy. Arthur L. Purinton, an- nounced at the meeting that the annual ladies' night would be held on December g and would feature Dr. James Ellwenwood with a talk on "A Man and His Job." The war training classes at LeavenWorth High school are still open, the secre- tary said.
