thousands of conquered peoples
- Poles, Czechs, Danes, Slavs
Just how many is not known,
but recent reports say that more
than a thousand YugoslavS were
slaughtered by the Nazis follow
ing an outbreak of typhus in one
of their labor camps.
In addition, every available
Norwegian is being pressed into
service on Notifications. A Nor
Wegian recently from Oslo told
me that one of the capitals big
gest department stores had just
shut down to release manpower
for war work. And a recent
Quisling decree makes all wo-
men under 40 and men under
SIS liable to CONSUMPTION for work
of national importance"
BOOTLEG" SPORTS
Probably in no other occupied
country have the Nazis met such
solid organized non-cooperation
from the very start. Sticking to-
gether through their highly or
gained unions - business, pro-
fessional and labor - NorWeg-
ians have forced the Nazis to
give in time and time again. For
example, year ago 700 teach
ers were dismissed for refusing
to teach Nazi doctrine. They had
to be recalled in November for
lack of teachers to replace them.
This organization extends even
to sports. For three years Nor
ways 100000 sportsmen have
refused to participate in Nazi
organized sports. They've held
their own contests on the OF.
Only last month the Gestapo
swooped down on "illegal" ma
tional ski championships and
arrested IS skiiers including the
famed Olympic champion Rund
brothers.
But as elsewhere in occupied
Europe, the ability to resist is
determined by ability to eat,
Just last December the Nazis
strengthened their grip on ra-
tons by forcing Norwegian
workers to turn in their ration
cards at factories. The worker
quitting without permission loses
his card.
There is little extra food in
Norway. To date mo one has
starved, but meat is non-exist-
ant. Last fall Oslo slaughter
houses were turning out a saus-
age of minced whale meat and
horse meat mixed with fish. But
even that is gone now. Butter
is so scarce that 1000 people
stood in line all night in Trond-
helm recently in front of store

Fears Exploded
Teek 8 Marks
Clarity Situation

Fears of "ersatz" clothing for
men, for the coming season at
least, are entirely groundless
according TO CASTOR Teck of
Teck g. Marks who returned
from the mems wear market
week held recently in Chicago.
"While it is true that govern
ment restrictions on styles and
materials do not make available
the wide range of pre-war days,
it was heartening TO see the
ample selection of mems cloth
ing and furnishings displayed in
the Chicago show rooms of 200
of the country's leading mems
wear manufacturers and to
learn that the quality of these
goods was still high. American
men and boys can still be we'll
dressed with good-looking and
good-wearing clothes"
An interesting sidelight on
how u. S. merchants are cooper
ating with the war effort to
eliminate unnecessary travelling
and "good-t m e" conventions
was exemplified by this Market
Week in Chicago according TO
Teck. More than 1000 progress
sive Midwest mems wear mer-
chants made the trip TO Chicago
to see over 200 leading lines of
merchandise. This relieved over
200 sales forces from the neces-
sity of making frequent jour-
neys over a large territory and
decreased the load on our trans
portation system. The Market
Week was strictly business
gathering, says Mr.. Teck with
all frills and convention atmos-
phere eliminated. The net re-
suit was to make available to
everybody better selection of
mems clothing.

PEOPLE GROW WEAKER
Norwegians have always said
that as long as IL ey had salt
herring and potatoes they'd new
err starve. But since last Novem-
Der it is illegal to sell herring to
Norwegians.
AS the food situation becomes
worse, active sabotage grows
less feasible. Moreover the Ger
mans have used the system of
making the Norwegians them
selves guard strategic railroads
and factories. They forfeit their
lives if any sabotage is commit
ed on their beats.
If violent sabotage is small,
passive sabotage is great. Work

gan of the underground. 1t is

GERMANS FRIGHTENED
When Storm Trooper died
recently his wife advertised

Ever since she's been getting
scores of letters daily, Your
husband has not arrived yet"
They're signed "Jesus."
No one, least of all the Nor
wegians themselves, think their
liberation will be easy to come
by. The Germans have an esti-
mated 100000 troops in Nor
way. Their defenses are strong.
Yet all Norway feels it. Seven
teen Nazis being sent to Norway
were reported to have jumped
off the train at the Swedish bor-
der recently. And rumor says
that IA Germans were shot try
ing to escape at Christiansand.
The handwriting is literally on
the wall in Norway. Chalked,
painted, scratched, patriotic and
anti-Nazi messages keep appear
ing on houses and factories.

Letter to the
Editor

EDITORS NOTE: The following
letter was called to our attention,
and we are Of the opinion that here
is a condition in a plant that is
definitely affecting the morale and
production of war workers. When
the wives and mothers of our
workers KNOW that conditions in
a plant are demoralizing, then it is
up to Management to do something
about it. Following is a letter from
a Go members wife, which we
think is very interesting:
Tuesday, Feb. 20, 1913
Dear Mr.. Arthur L. Garfield,
UE Representative,
Dayton, o.
Dear MIR. Garfield:
wonder if there is anything you
could do to help the GIN Ordnance
plant workers here in Dayton. The
lunches that are served them from
the wagons that go through the
plant are very bad.
My husband says the "hot dogs"
and the weinies are about 3" in
length and are hard as stone. The
coffee tastes like it has sawdust
in it and looks like mud.
Now Delco Products, Plant z has
cafeteria service for their men, so
why can't you do something, 50 our
men can have the same service or
better.
The food service now is impos-
sible. Also, 1t is impossible for us
wives to pack lunches on a 2k lbs.
meat ration, and ! cannot see how
men are going to keep their
strength, IL their food is cut to
nothing.
know personally that the lady
IN charge of the food service at
Plant 8, has gone to the foreman
or head man who has the contract,
and this Is his answer. "They take
what they get and like 1t, or else"

This legislature might better

Senator Ross does not express
the desire of Dayton's working
people in this bill. The workers
of Dayton ask that this legislature
stop hindering our war work. We
ask you to help us produce for
victory, help us win this war
Help us maintain the strength and
morale of our home front just as
we all want our fighters in the
front lines to have their strength

the sentiments, the requests
