of gas for pleasure purposes. There
will be complete details as to the af-

the place and dates-Camp Mount

and the time, May 6-7-8
The cost will be about So, which
includes not only sleeping accom-
modations and meals, but the sound
movie that will be a feature this
year.

Waterfowl regulations for 1943
have not been released, but indica-
tlons are they will be more lenient
than last year. With any kind of
breeding season in the northland
they will need to be, else our bird
population might become greater
than can be supported through the
winter by our marshes and water
ways.
This brings up the question of
shells, which has been the main
topic wherever wildfowlers gather.
There now is no actual ruling that
will permit the production of new
shells, but We are guessing that
there will be reasonable releases of
II and l6 gauge shells in sizes 4 and
8 when the open season rolls around.

Dear jim:
| have your letter of the 1st instant,
which came in today, concerning the
United States Government setting up
potteries in japanese concentration
camps throughout the country / am
looking into this matter Immediately
and shall let you know as soon as |
get the facts on the situation.
l sincerely appreciate your calling
this matter to my attention and / will
do everything possibly can to remedy
the situation because | think it is GER
tainly a most ridiculous thing that we
should train japanese in our concen-
tratiOn camps in the use of our modern
methods of manufacturing pottery in
this country. AS everyone knows, of
course, the japanese have been our
ruinOus competition in the field of
dinnerware and pottery generally for
years, and now, to spend the taXpay
ers' money in training the Japanese i'm
our own methods of making pottery,
seems to me stupid beyond belief.

edy the situation.

Expert To Advise
u. S. Commission

Montreal-Appointme of David H.
BlellOch of the staff of the Interna-
tional Labor Office as advisor to the
joint United States-Bolivia commission
which will investigate labor conditions
in the Bolivian tin mines was an
nounced here by Edward J. Phelan,
Acting Director of the LILO.
Mr. Blelloch was appointed by the
LILO. at the request of both the United
States and Bolivian Governments, Mr..
Phelan said.
Announcement Of the establishment
of the joint commission was made in
Washington and La Paz, Bolivia. The
commissions United States members
have already left for La Paz, and Mr..
Blelloch will join the commission in
the Bolivian capital.
Mr. Phean said the International
Labor Office was "very gratified" to
be able to make Mr.. BlellOch's serv-
ices available as advisor to the COM
mission.
"The worldwide experience gathered
by the International Labor Office on
working and living conditions will thus
be at the disposal of the commission"
he said.
"The creation of the commission" he
added, may, / hope, be taken as
heralding the acceptance of new
approach to the solution of a problem
which is of equally vital Importance to
both countries concurring in the
establishment of the commission"
Commenting on the fact that EN-
plOyers' and workers representatives
have been appointed as members of the
commission along with representatives
of the Government agencies concerned,
Mr.. Phelan said: 1T is encouraging to
see that in establishing the commission
the governments have been guided by
the ILO.'s tripartite principle of
government-employer worker repre-
sentation. This is an example that may
well be followed in the future"
Task of the commission will be TO
investigate labor conditions in the
Bolivian tin mines, and to submit pro-
pOSals for their, Improvement, thus as
suring the steady flow of ore. Produc-
ton in the mines was seriously cur
tailed recently by strikes which re-
ceived international attention.

I+'s An American
Army
pv IeUVTIJ VAVI OR
BY RUTH TAYLOR

What makes an American Army
American?
1t is selection. The boys come from
all ranks of life, from farm and fac
tory, from village and city, from the
work bench and the class room. There
is no question of class, no bar of ma
tional origin of the names they bear,
no dispute as to their religion. They
are chosen because they are physically
fit and mentally able to do Il hard job
because they are tough enough to
take it-and to hand it out.
1t is leadership. With only small
standing army, war found us with too
few men trained to lead. But that
never stopped an American army. The
boys in the ranks We're culled by their
officers and if they showed any quail
tiles of leadership, they were pushed
into officers training camps there to
earn their ratings. Gossip mongers to
the contrary, practically none of our
officers were selected because of their
friends" Most have come up from the
ranks through sheer ability and hard
work. Our leaders know the men they
are leading because in the ranks are
men they know, WHO come from the
same kind of homes, were taught in
the same kind of schools the same be-
liefs in democracy The men obey be-
cause they know why" The officers
lead because they know chow"
1t is devotion. In our ranks are men
whose ancestors crossed the seas gen
erations ago-and those who came in
the last immigration those whose only
language seems To be American slang,
cent, and those who still have "A for
eign accent those who are Americans
by birth, and those who are Americans
by choice But there is common bond
which ties them together-a bond of
devotion 10 Il flag which stands for 4
devotion to the free land that is
America.
1t is consecraton. Alike the men
who are Americans are cOnSecrated to
an ideal set forth in the Decla ration of
to be self evident, that all men are
created equal" in the Farewell ad-
dress of George Washington, "Citizens
by birth or choice " the indepen-
dence and liberty you posses are the
work of joint councils, and joint eff
forts-of common dangers, sufferings
and successes" in the Gettysburg Ad-
dress of Lincoln, Government of the
people. by the people and for the
people and finally in the message of
President Roosevelt, I'm the future
days, which we seek to make secure,
we look forward TO world founded
upon four essential freedoms"
Selection, leadership, devotion and
conservation - that is what makes an
American army American. That is
what will carry anirAmerican Army on
to victory!

SdfetY Contest

Washington, d. G.. ULNS).-SnaEe
bite and poison ivy cases involving loss
of time are listed among potential
causes of accidents occurring in ship
yards in preparing for the Victory
Shipbuilding Safety Contest, Jointly
sponsored by the Maritime Commits
sion, Navy Department and National
Safety Council.
And it is quite reasonable to include
snake bite and poison ivy among pos
sible accidents Both dangers prevail
along rivers. Even in the northwest
rattlerS and moccasins still haunt the
lowlands near Duluth where three
yards are located.
The contest is open to all yards
engaged in the construction and repair
of government, passenger and cargo
vessels, besides smaller craft and har-
Dor equipment. Each ship or boat yard,
will compete as Il unit. They will be
classified as to size on the basis OF
man hours of exposure reported for
January and will be revised every
other month until June.
Major awards will be presented to
the yards having the lowest average
accident frequency rate. All contest
ants, excepting major award winners,
will share in reduction awards if they
show 5 per cent or more Improvement.
All group winners will be eligible for
the Admiral Land safety trophy,
grand award conferred by a ma jority
vote of five judges for the most out
standing safety work covering aver
age decrease in frequency of all in
jurieS in comparison with group aver
age rates for the contest year: i'm

ton and activities; other factors con-
tributing to results.

candidates for shipyard jobs.
Cards Ruled Out
Trial Examiner Robert n. Denham
said, however, that he would not let
the cards be made basis for a con-
trOverSy, as it might be extended, con-
ceivably to cover $4,000 workers.
Denham also denied President John
p. Frey of the AFL Metal Trades De-
partment the right to testify out of
turn in the hearing. Frey asked to
take the stand before the NLRB com
pleted it's case in order to meet other
engagements in the East.
Frey, while in San Francisco few
days earlier, declared that the NLRB

than a half million AFL unionists TO
drop their wartime pledge against
work stoppages.
End OF Negotiations Seen
Other statements have been made
here by AFL leaders to the effect that
the AFL's nO-Strike pledge was made
in good faith in the agreement with
the ship stabiliZation committee and
that now the NLRB may, i'm effect, de-
clare the agreement null and void.
One spokesman said "a labor board
election would take from six months
to year. During that time it would
be illegal for the employer to hear and
negotiate grievances. We forfeited the
right to strike on the agreement that
problems would be negotiated. But if
we cannot negotiate, we feel that the
nostrike pledge must be withdrawn
