Communication OF
Sentence Is Won

Albany, N. Y. QLNS).-Gov. Charles
sentence of Carl Gilmore, Negro team
ster of BinghamtOn, n. Y, to the 2
years he has served on charge of
assault.
Gilmore, member of Local 695,
International Brotherhood of Team
sters, was jailed in August 1910, ac-
cused of assaulting a Strikebreaker.
He was charged with assault in the
third degree a misdemeanor, but when
the indictment was drawn, it was for
assault in the second degree, a felony,
which is far more serious.
Convicted Gilmore was fined $1,000
and sentenced to an Aindeterminate
term of 9 to 10 years in Jail. On ap-
peal the Appellate Division of the
State Supreme Court declared that the
sentence was excessive and unreasOn-
able" and reduced the prison term to
3 to 10 years, and wiped out the fine,
suggesting that application for eXecu-
tive clemency be made.
| The Governors action came after
he met a joint AFL-CIO delegation
| led by Rev. Laurence T. HOsie, chair
man of the Workers Defense League.
Others who met with the Governor to
urge GilmOre's release were Nathaniel
Minkoff, secretary-treasurer of the
N. Y. Dress Joint Board, ILGWU; ;
Samuel Baron, assistant manager, N.

overtime has to be computed at an
hourly rate.
For over year at least, all over
time was computed on piece and one
half basis for the overtime hours or
day, and we believe it is contrary to
law to change it now. We still hope
our firm will not be stubborn on this
point. 1t does not confirm with their
past ways of dealing and if other
costs of manufacture have increased,
we hope they will bear in mind our
many increased expenses too.
Another thing that is hard to under
stand is why Il few casters are not
willing to make things as easy as they
possibly can for those who serve them
in carrying-out finished ware. A little
more cooperation along this line would
be appreciated.

We are all familiar with the phrase

TO leave us Woefully unprepared for

pitied.
Now these is another theory abroad
in the land. 1t is that of the ''musts
and the must nots' instead of being a
diyisive theory, however, this is a
closely coordinated and correlated eX-
preston of thought which may be
translated into positive action.
We must put fist things first. We
must devote all our energies to the one
task of winning The war, that we may
return to the ordered ways of peace
We must not be sidetracIled from this
goal by personal ambition, group inter
estS or individual bias.
We must save in all things - in
money, time, material resources, and
health - that we may be fit to assume
our fun obligation as citizens. We
must not Squander anything but our
spirit of friendIiness and cooperation

We must keep still. Some day try

Springs, Md, an electric crane opera
tor and president of Electric Crane
Operators Union No. 251, International

In answer to a question from Philip
Pearl. AFL commentator and director

big reaSonS"-hiS sons in the service
that make him anxious TO win the war
speedily. Five are in the Coast Guard
and one in the Army. Asked about the
spirit and production record of the
men working with him, Fincham said:
They are working long hours, most
of them seven days IL week, and they
are working hard. All of us know how
important it is to produce guns and
torpedoes for the Navy and we are
pushing them out as fast as we can

OAR President
Warns u. s. Must
Preserve Peace

Mrs. William H. Pouch, president
general of the Daughters of the
American Revolution, warned yes
terday that the United States must
not rely on peace pacts and inter-
national police forces" to provide
security after the war in a state
ment prepared for independence
Day.
America must be ready and pre-
pared to preserve peace by armed
force" the OAR head asserted. The
United States Navy and the United
States Army Air Force, together
with an army adequate to protect
| the Western Hemisphere, must be
maintained until war-minded gener-
ations of Axis nations have passed
away, Mrs. Pouch contended.
Must Continue Navy.
There can be no permanent
peace, even though the war lords be
brought to justice. as long as chill
dren of aggressive nations, stepped
| in the creed of hate thy neighbor,
are permitted to grow up into teach
ers of the doctrine Of blood and
terror" she declared.
The OAR head emphasized that
she was not advocating isolationism
in any sense. America will cooper
ate with all peace-loving nations. :"
she said. She will stand by her
Allies, but she must be ready to
prove that Americans can protect
themselves.
Daughters of the American Revo-
luton, always championing the
cause of adequate national defense,
took the stand at the war projects
meeting at Cincinnati in April,
/ that the United States must never
again scrap its Navy or tear down
its great armaments for defense" :"
Mrs. Pouch pointed out.
Must Preserve Peace.
Eve reaffirm that stand on this
Fourth of July. We must look to
our own protection in the future as
we'll as to that of our Allies. We
must rely upon that strength and
power to preserve the peace which
we expect to win, and which shall
be won.
"The women of this country can
20 to the stores with their ration
books and find the meat and other
necessities gone. They can be told
their gasoline coupons are not good
for ordinary driving. They can live
in cold rooms to conserve fuel.
But when word comes that their
boys have been killed in action, they
want to be sure that the supreme
sacrifice has not been made in vain.
They cannot rely upon prom
ises, nor upon international police
forces. They can only pray for
assurance that freedom and liberty
will be preserved, by American force
If necessary, and Americans must
be prepared to use that force.
IF we had been a little more
'militaristic for peace in the past
what happened at Pearl Harbor
might never have occurred. If we
adopt a policy of preparedness for
peace in the future, we will have
better chance of preserving the
peace, won at such great COST
