Addresses Women
At Luncheon

Destruction OF organized labor
after the war will in turn mean the
destruction of our present form of
government, Wayne l.. Morse, public
member of the War Labor Board,
told a luncheon meeting OF the
Woman's National Democratic Club
yesterday.
Trade unionists, like agriculture
alists, small businessmen and pro-
fessional men, are conservative
human beings and want the same
things from life, an education for
their children and security in their
old age for themselves he said.
"They will be a protection from
the fascist and communistic philoso-
plies which will challenge the
United States after the war"
Speaking on THE War Labor
Boards Contribution to Freedom of
Labor" Mr.. Morse explained that
the War Labor Board was neither
a board of mediation nor a COM
promise, but was judicial board.
In its capacity as a judicial board
he remarked that in 10 per cent of
the cases which had come before the
board 1t had unanimous decision
and that in the other 80 per cent
the decisions had been split $3.50.
LAS the only organization in the
Government in which both labor
and industry have voting voice. it
is possible to place the responsibility
OF the decisions on the board itself,
which is as it should be in a true
democratic system he said.
On the subject of the union main
tenance program which came be-
fore the board. he said that where
the workers were given their choice
of joining the unions or resigning
there had been complaints from
neither the employers nor the
unions. THE decision of the board
and it's program for carrying it out
have produced harmony and has
made for security on all sides"
The speaker was introduced by
Mrs. Izetta Jewel Miller Those at
the speakers table included: Mrs.
South Trimble. jr, second vice presi-
dent Of the club, who presided: Mrs.
D. c. Goodwin, Mrs. B. Y. Martin,
Mrs. Kittel Hydrick. Miss Elaine
Exton and Mrs. Leslie Fife.
Mrs. Trimble reminded all men,
bers of the dinner Thursday at TOO
pm. at which Frank P. Graham,
president of the University OF North
Carolina and public member of the
War Labor Board, will be the
speaker.

a story which, when pieced together
reveals that the usual program OF
summer pleasures is in full swing,
plus wider than ever variety of

mer colonists might have been mis-
led into expecting a dull season.
Judging from the accounts of
activities in the Berkshire Hills, the
White Mountains, Lake Placid,
Spring Lake, Saranac, Narragansett
and other regions, and on Cape Cod,
perhaps the makeshifts neceSsitated
by the restrictions imposed by war
time conditions are even adding a
dash of spice to the fun of being
free from housekeeping cares back
home.
Just plain, old-fashioned vacation
loafing, however, has been curtailed
to point comparable with Wash
ington's beef supply-there isn't any
to be had.
Mrs. Dwight W. Morrow widow of
the former Senator from New Jersey,

Penobscot Bay.
Mrs. Morrow was accompanied by
her grandchildren. Elisabeth and

row will have other members of her
family with her for vacations.

mainder of the summer are Col

Landing Craft
For SiciHon Role

An infantry landing craft which
carried its contingent safely to the
beach after the principal members
OF its crew had been wounded, has
been given the Presidential Unit
Citation for services beyond the
high standards expected of our
forces"
The ship was speeding toward
Sicilian port during the invasion
when a bullet struck the engineer
who fell forward, jamming the con-
trolls at full speed ahead. The
helmsman was struck at the same
time, leaving the tiller unnamed.
The winchman assigned to drop an
anchor used to pull the ship off
the beach also was struck and as
a result the craft swung broadside
to the sands when it grounded.
For the next four days, while
their vessel was stranded, the crew
manned their guns and silenced
several enemy positions. The ship
finally was refloated and repaired
and has been returned to duty.
