Turks Reported
Defiant Of NdziS

WASHINGTON, Feb. : (INS)
Prime Minister Churchill today
is understood TO have reported to
President Roosevelt that Turkey
has lost its fear of Germany.
Authoritative sources said that
Churchill gathered this definite
impression from his conference
with President Ismet Inonu.
Churchill is understood TO have
sent a report to the President on
his talks with the Turkish lead
ers almost Immediately after he
returned 10 Cairo from Turkey.
AS a result of the Churchill
Inonu talks, the view prevails in
authoritative quarters that Turkey
still wishes to maintain neutrality
in the world conflict, but IS de-
termined to fight if Hitler at
tempts TO move through Turkish
territory in a drive into the Near
East.
There also is a strong belief in
official and diplomatic quarters
that Turkey will now fight even
liz the Germans should attempt 10
bypass that country with a sea-
borne invasion of Syria.

NO PITCHED BATTLE YET
He described the present sea
and air activities around the Solo,
mons as "feelerS," and said that
mo really pitched battle has de-
veloped yet"
Discussing his visit TO Guadal-
canal, Knox said that he was sur
prised at the small portion of the
island involved as the theater of
Operations. He said it comprised
only pa per cent of the area, with
the Americans occupying 2 per
cent and the Japanese half Of !
per cent.
He said that substantially all
organized resistance" by Japanese
ground forces on the island had
been cleaned up.
There are just small pockets
of resistance surrounded by
American troops" he continued.
"Some OF them are surrendering
and n number gave themselves
up while we were there"
MANY JAPS SURRENDER
lie said that the number of
voluntary surrenders by Japanese,
who heretofore have been re-
ported as fanatical fight to the
death" men, has been greater
than ever before.
Those surrounded by Amer
lean troops are In a hopeless
position" he continued "They
can't get any ammunition or
supplies and their food is prob
ably all exhausted
When a reporter told Knox that
the Australians feel that he is
more optimistic than the situation
in the South Pacific warrants,
Knox grinned and Remarked:
"Sorry to disappOint them.

the situation on GuadalcanaI is

JAP CLAIMS DENIED

claims that in the first two days
of the battle two United States

sunk and another battleship and a

"The Japanese claims OF
$ United States losses are grossly
S exaggerated and their own losses

levels of American decency;
(4) A truly stabilized national war
economy must be secured through the

firm taxation policy calculated to raise
the funds necessary for victory out OF
the luxury living levels reflected in
corporate profits and high income
brackets and not out of the food budg-

Eliminate Steel Formula

RESOLVED ID That it has become
necessary to eliminate the so-called
Little Steel formula which, particularly
in view of the rise in the cost of living
and the added burdens on the workers,
is no longer in accord with reality.
The working men and women of Amer
lea must be permitted, through the
sound and stable processes of collec-
tive bargaining, to secure wage adjust
nents to levels necessary to maintain
their morale, health and efficiency and
to meet the special needs imposed on
them in this war period;
(2) The sound and tested processes
of collective bargaining must be
freed to secure the elimination Of
inequalities and inequities in wage

PEOPLES Demands Unnief

(2) It is an unfortunate fact that the
peoples demands for sound and inte-
grated economic sterilization program
have not been made effective. Spe-
cial interests and pressures have oper-
ated, particularly in the halls of Con-
gress, to prevent effective steps on each
of the important aspects OF such q
program. The results thus far have
created serious dangers Of disunity
within the nation and a broad weaken
ing of the home front. On the one hand
wages have been subjected to severe
limitations; on the other hand Con-
gress has refused to enact tax bill
calculated to curb war profits and to
call upon the corporations and those
of high incomes to make their proper
contribution to the cost Of the war,
and has sabotaged the Administra-
TONS agricultural program. Congress
has taken every opportunity to impede
and prevent effective action to control
prices, and even today Is threatening
10 bar the use of funds essential for
subsidies to assure some measure OF
price control. The rollback Of prices
has not been fulfilled. Excessive prices
and profits coupled with the freezing
Of wages have created the conditions
for imitation and have resulted in severe
strains upon the food and clothing
budgets of workers, with consequent
threats to their efficiency in war pro-
duction. In order that genuine stabili-
cation of our economy be accomplished
and initiation be avoided, which 10

Pledge Not
To Strike

WHEREAS, ~ The working men
and women of this nation desire above
anything else to exert all their effort
and energy toward achieving maxi
mum production of war materials;
(2) A strike or stoppage Of work
must necessarily interfere with this
effort for about production and to
that extent actually assists our enc
mics and endangers the lives Of
those men and women on the battle
fronts fighting the Axis armies;
~ The CLIO at the outset of this
war gave its no-strike pledge which
1t has religiously maintained;
(4) We must recognize that the en-
emies of our war effort are constantly
seeking to provoke labor into engaging
in strikes, such as through the enact
ment of the Smith, onnally Act, and
that there are employers who for their
own personal profit may endeavor to
take advantage of our war situation
and attempt to exploit labor regard

Go Urges
Death for Little
Steel Formula

WHEREAS % The CLIO has
throughout the war emergency led the
nation in recognition Of the necessity
for a thoroughly stabilized home front
economy to assure maintenance OF
morale, national unity and maximum
war production for victory in the war.
Labor has rallied behind President
Roosevelt in his demand originally
enunciated in April, 1912, for national
economic sterilization through the ap-
plication of his seven-point program.
Labor has vigorously pointed out the
absolute necessity for firm action on
all fronts if sound sterilization is to
be naturalization which would re-
suit in equal and impartial stabiliza-
ton of all aspects of our war economy,
including prices, profits, salaries and
wages. Such program obviously re-
auires effective control OF prices, a
sound tax system to curb high incomes
and swollen corporate profits, and a
sound wage sterilization program
which would assure to workers levels
Of payment calculated to promote pro-
duction, preserve health and working
efficiency and assure the highest ma
tional morale.

Intensive Political Drive

These considerations impelled the
Executive Board of CIO on July 7th
to establish a Political Action Com.
mittee to take the initiative in launch
ing a broad and intensive campaign
of political education in its deepest
and most practical sense. The rank
and file of labor throughout the ma
ton is alive to the fact that the vital
problems which they face are possible
of solution only through their organ
lied participation in the political life
of the nation. The CLIO Political Ac-
ton Committee through its national
Office, its regional directors and reg
ional committees, has set itself the
task of giving stimulus, direction,
guidance and organized expression to
this growing political awareness of
labor.
1t will not be the policy of the CLIO
in connection with the 1914 elections
to build labor's political organization
in the form of third party, but to
abstain from and discourage any move
