Garfield

Anyone who has read recent re-
ports from the Washington scene
understands well that the 18th
Congress, unless stopped by a la
Dor movement which is united
within it's own ranks, and with the
progressive minded people of this
nation, is out to do a Job" on
practically all of the New Deal
legislation passed during the past
few years.
Leaders of the UE and of every
CLIO union attempted to arouse our
membership to take a greater in
terest and more active part in the
recent election campaign. The
results prove that u warming
did not strike home with SUI
ficient effect. We are now reaping
the reward for inactivity, and lack
of interest in one of the most i'm
portant of our democratic insti-
tutions . the ballot box. We can
and must make amends for our
election failures. The course of
action needed has been clearly,
and effectively presented by the
General Executive Board of the
UE-CIO, in recommendations
made, which appeared in the UE
NEWS of December 18th, and JAM
uary End. They deserve your care
full re-reading and further study.
More than that, the suggestions
outlined therein must be made the
basis for speedy, and intensive
legislative activity on the part of
every Local Union, and of every
union man and women.
This activity must be more
thorough than ever before. 1t must
develop interest on the part of
EVERY MEMBER, because the
future welfare, security, and life
of every member is involved.
Plans we're made at Sundays Dis
trict Souncil No. Z conference to
see that this District carries
through with the recommendations
of our national General Executive
Board. Here i'm Dayton we must
see to it that our share of the load
is carried. Every Local Union will
be given instructions to establish,
or re-establish its Public Affairs
Committee, and to place on it some
of the most active and devoted
union members. Plans will soon be
worked out for a broad conference,
which will develop a deeper un-
derstanding, and full conscious
ness of the really serious situation
in which we are.
The forces of reaction, typified
by the present NAM Chairman,
Mr.. Crawford, hope to put the
clock back" They would not hest
tate one moment to do it the
Hitler way if they thought they
could get away with it. Upon the
shoulders of Americas workers
and all of its patriotic, liberty
loving people, rests the full weight
of responsibility to protect our
democratic way of life during this
period of emergency and to lay
the basis for its full bloom into a
more abundant life once this war
is successfully concluded.
President Roosevelt, In his fight
ing speech to Congress, has gone
on record for that kind of o flu
ture. He will need every bit Of our
help this year. To fail him will
mean a drastic lowering Of living

sion on food as it relates to virtually
every phase of life.
The speaker warned against
specialization in terms of a single
trend. The nutrition we are going
to have depends on a lot of things,
she said. And the way it develops
will depend on what we do
Citing statistics to show that food
production in this country was not
sufficient for good nutrition last
year, Miss Van Horn said that
central authority and a lot of pro-
tective measures will be needed if
we are to have good nutrition in
the next 10 years"
Predictions on housing were made
by Mrs. Hoffman, who said that the
war Is rapidly changing our ideas
of what we want.
The simple, small house provided
for war workers has made many a
woman envious, she said. Nor will
the young people now going to war
be willing to return to the old
fashioned dwelling, she continued.
They will be looking for the small,
inexpensive fabricated house which
they can run with one hand" she
predicted.
The house we shall live in will
be the house of the plain people
small, compact but expansible, with
all the basic needs of good housing
safety, sanitation, light, air, space,
privacy, comforts. conveniences,
cleanliness, playground, quiet beauty.

II a plan is to be made for the

1t should be developed now so that
1t Will be in readiness when the
doctors anG nurses now in military
service return home after the war
DR.. Martha M. Eliot declared yes
terday.
Associate chief of the Children's
Bureau, DR.. Eliot was one of three
speakers to address the Voteless
District League of Women Voters
in a panel discussion on Goals for
Security in Postwar America" at
the YWCA. Mrs. Helen Duey Hoff-
man. executive director of the Wash
ington Housing Association. dis
cussed postwar housing, and Miss
Edith Van Horn, executive secretary
OF the American Home Economics
Association, spoke on nutrition and
food.
Contending that the Nation did
not have enough doctors even in
peacetime, Dr. Eliot said some pro-
vision should be made so that they
could go to the places where they
are most needed. There are vast
areas in this country which are
inadequately covered by health pro-
tectlve services, she declared.
Pointing out that more than
10000 doctors will come home after
the war, DR.. Eliot said many would
resume private practice but that
number of the younger doctors won't
know where to turn.
A public health program should
provide some salary for these doc
tors so their services can be used to
the public advantage, she asserted.
obviously, we must also think
OF the proper workshops-that is,
hospitals, clinics and medical and
health centers," she continued. In
such workshops doctors should be
given the opportunity to keep
abreast Of new developments in
medicine"
Formulating a plan would in
volve methods of financing, distri-
button and administration among
otherS, Dr. Eliot pointed out. "As a
matter of fact" she said, we would
probably use variety Of methods"
She also emphasized that whether
program for extension of medical
services is carried out will de-
pend on whether or not the people
want it.
Discussing opportunities in public
health being opened up to women
during wartime. Dr. Eliot said that
in one State alone six or seven
women have been appointed as
county health officers.
Miss Van Horn declared that the
influence of women on nutrition is
more proportionate than in any
other field as she opened a discus
