Germans Threaten
Italian Troops With
Surrender or Death
BY the Associated Press

BY tne Associated PreSS.
ON THE SWISS S-ITALIAN
FRONTIER, Oct. Italian soldiers
who have taken to the hills of the
Como area to organize guerrilla
warfare have been notified by their
former Nazi commanders that they
have until tomorrow to surrender or
else face death.
Newspapers of the area, where
partisan activity has been increas-
ing sharply, published a German
order announcing that all who re-
ported to the nearest German au-
thorities by october 2 would be
treated like other Italian soldiers
who have voluntarily put down
their arms and who were not shot
nor militarily punished"
Presumably these men, like other
disarmed Italian troops, would be
sent to forced labor in Germany.
All who do not surrender by tomor-
row will face firing squads "or other
very severe penalties" the order de-
clared.
Romans Resist.
Meantime. dispatch to the Ga
zette de Lausanne said that i'll Rome
Italian resistance to the Germans
still continues. The dispatch quoted
diplomat just out of Italy who said
at night so many incidents have oc-
CURED that Nazi soldiers are re-
manning in their barracks.
Working youths, the dispatch said,
are giving an astonishing" example
of resistance and many l5-year- old
boys have fallen under the rifles of
the German troops.
The greatest insubordination of
the Italians. the dispatch continued,
is shown in the north where Ital-
ans appear to have forgotten their
sufferings" and have given them
selves Fundamentally to guerrilla
warfare, in keeping with their ira
ditions"
In localities where there are no
German occupation troops. it was
said, there had been no effort to re-
establish the Fascist party and 10y

Nazis Conscript Labor.
Meanwhile. the Germans yester-
day ccnscripted all men between l3
and 33 in Is Central Italian prov
inces for forced labor in Germany,
according to reports reaching here.
A Chiasso dispatch to La Suisse
in Geneva said it was expected the
mobilization order would be ex-
tended to all azi-occupied prov
inces. There are estimated to be
between 100000 and 5000 900 men
within the age group in all Italy.
In addition, Nazi military COM
manders throughout the occupied
areas posted orders that the fol-

The UAW-C CLOS
Complete Social
Security
For america

Editors Note: This is the
| first of a series of articles COM
piled from the UAW Social
Security Program. Other articles
aoiu folloW.
The necessity of winning a
total war has already proved to
the people of this country that we
have the resources, we have the
manpower, we have the ability to
produce far beyond our peacetime
standards. If we can fully utilize
our productive resources for the
purpose of destroying the Axis
enemy, with proper planning we
can also produce to eliminate the
evils of unemployment, sickness
and insecurity in times of peace.
The UAW-CIO proposes this
Social Security Program, after a
thorough study, as a reasonable
and desirable wartime measure
which will insure to every man,
woman and child in America,
whether he is a worker, farmer or
self-employed and to their depend
ents, security against unemploy-
ment ,old age, sickness and in
jury.
The Desirability OF Extending
Social Security During The War
There is an attempt being made
in some quarters to repeal or emas-
culate social security legislation on
the preteXt that it is an unneces-
sary luxury which should be dis
pensed with during the war. The
Vandenberg amendment to the 1912
tax bill, to prevent the tax for Old
Age and Survivors insurance from
being increased from 29o to 4fc
was one such successful attempt.
However, a study of the problems
involved supports the conclusion
that the Social Security program
should be strengthened and ex-
tended as means of furthering
the war effort. Some of the more
obvious reasons are:
a. The establishment now of an
adequate social security program

Point Ration Coupons
Offer New
Standard of VoIues

Very soon now that red-white-
and-blue War Ration Book No. 2
will be the latest addition to our
war library. In effect it supplies
us with new measure of values.
Every time a rationed article is
purchased, both actual cash and
one or more red or blue coupons
will have to be used.
Coupons in the book have four
different values :. one, two, five
and eight points. If you'll get out
your pencil and a piece of paper,
you'll see that those four figures
can be added up to everything be-
tween one and 16 with the excep-
tion of four or IL, and that four
or IL and numbers larger than Is
can be made by using 2-point cou-
pons, or 2-point and two 1-point
coupons. Twelve is made possible
by combining an 8-point and two
2-point coupons, or two 5-points
and a 2-point. Sixteen or more
points can be figured using two g.
points plus whatever smaller val
ue is needed.
Office of Price Administration
that it will be wiser to use the
large point coupons whenever pos
sible and to save the smaller value
ones for use toward the end of the
rationing period. In other words,
if three rationed items are pur-
chased, valued respectively at l.
point, 2-points and 5-points, use a
single 8-point coupon instead of a
one, two and five. Then when the
end of the ration period ap-
proaches and you want something
valued at one or two, you won't
find yourself left with only cou-
pons valued at five or eight.

NEWARK, N. ITO meet a
problem that is growing here as it
is in many other war production

Travelling difficulties for war
workers have already impaired Job
