WENDELL WILLKIE
SCORES POLL TAX

Washington, d. G. (1LNS) Poll
taxes are detrimental to the interests
Of all, Wendell L. Willkie said in a
message made public here.
The National Committee to Abolish
the Poll Tax announced this message
from Willkie to conference of the
committees delegates backing moves
in Congress to abolish the poll tax as
a voting requirement in eight south
ern states.
Efforts to deny improperly to any
citizen his constitutional right to
votes, whether by poll tax or by dem
ocratic white primary, must be re-
sisted and opposed by every Ameri-
can," Willkie said
"Any measure which deprives any
group of citizens in our country from
exercising the inherent rights as set
forth in the Constitution is inimical
to the interests of all citizens"

THIS CHRISTMAS
(From the Motorman. Conductor and
Motor Coach Operator)

It's Christmas time again our
third war Christmas, and SO much has
happened during the past year to
bring the realities of war home to the
American people that to say the usual
Merry Christmas" this time seems
sort of out of place. Too many homes
have been blighted, too many blue
stars in the windows have turned to
gold. Too many of our boys this
Christmas season will be crouching in
fox-holes or fighting for their lives on
some rocky slope or in some jungle
swamp.
For those of our members whose
homes have not been afflicted, we
pray that your good fortune will con-
tinue; for those of our families who
have lost loved son or brother or
husband, we pray that at this holy
season, He will Tighten your suffer
ing and bring you the peace that
''passeth all understanding"

FIVE FREEDOMS FOR WHO?

The president of the National AS
sociation of Manufacturers says only
a man in jail can enjoy the Four
Freedoms, with the state doing
everything for him. According to him
the only way to get away from fear
and want is by industry's plan for a
better" America:
(D The highest attainable stand
ard of living; (2) the fullest degree
of economic security; CD the maxi
mum opportunity for productive and
remunerative employment; (4l the
most impartial economic justice; and
(5) the greatest degree Of economic
freedom.
AS far as working people are con-
cerned these five planks in the plat
form of the NAM represent FIVE free
doms they have never had from the
NAM or it's members They of course
are highly desirable detectives, but
labor would prefer to have the gov
ernment guarantee them than for the
NAM to talk about them.
Or perhaps they are five freedoms
for manufacturers?

FREE ENTERPRISE"

A Senate committee started out to
investigate the Brewster aeronautical
plants, not to find out, as you might
have supposed, to learn why they were
not producing airplanes, but to find
something which could be used
against labor-organize labor
Well, the committee learned that
there was labor trouble, but they also
learned it was caused by mismanage-
ment, lack Of materials, poor super
vision, and politics among officials.
But the committee also learned that
this firm is one of the group which
raised S65,000 to slip bill through
Congress relieving such firms of mil
lions in taxes.

MERRY CHRISTINA
A MERRY CHRISTMAS

The American Federation of Labor
extends its sincere wishes for Merry
Christmas and Happy New Year to
all of its members and friends.
We gratefully acknowledge the tire
mendous accomplishments of the
members of the American Federation
fo Labor on the war production lines
and their generous response to all
calls for the purchase of war bonds
and for donations to war relief ac-
tivities.
In this connection, we believe that
the following message from Vice
President Matthew Woll head of the
Labor League for Human Rights, is
particularly appropriate:
Christmas is more than a holiday
1t is an attitude stronger than cir
cumstance, and therefore an attitude
that manifests itself even in the face
of the brutal realities of war.
Goodwill to men can be a we'll
meaning platitude, or call to action.
1t has been call to action for the six
and one-half million members of the
American Federation of Labor, who
this year gave more than $30000,000
for relief of the needy and the unfor-
tunate at home and abroad, through
the Labor League for Human Rights.
"This goodwill has been demon
strated in the warm garments sent to
clothe the homeless children of Lon
don, in the food ships bearing bread
and milk to the starving people of
Greece, in the medicines sent to help
fight epidemics in China and Yugosla-
vain all the vital aid sent by Amer
ican labor to those who are fighting
side by side with us to win this war.
1t has been shown in the added COM
forts sent to Army camps and to
servicemen on the fighting fronts, and
in innumerable community welfare
projects established with the aid of
organized labor
"And because the working people of

America have borne a heavy burden
in this second year of war, their con-
tributions have special significance.
Where others have given out of their
surplus, labor has voluntarily and
generously shared its diminishing real
wage.
"The members of the American
Federation of Labor have manifested
the true Christmas spirit, the spirit
embodied in that great utterance, 1T
is more blessed to give than receive :"

More Bad News For Hitler
and Japs - U. S. Navy
Doubled In Size In 1913

Washington, d. c.. American
workers have doubled the combatant
fleet of the United States Navy in less
than II months, Secretary of the
Navy Frank Knox has announced.
This mammoth construction per-
formance was disclosed with the com
pletion on November "a of the 419th
fighting ship in 1943.
The Navy had only 419 combatant
vessels when the year opened and the
aircraft carrier Wasp, which was,
completed on November "a, was the
419th new ship to be completed by
American workers this year. This did
not take battle losses into account.
Secretary Knox said that two weeks
new construction were all that is re-
quired to make good the 81 warships
lost since January l.
More than 40 aircraft carriers of
all types, including merchant vessel
conversions, have been completed this
year. The Navy had placed particular
emphasis on construction of aircraft
carriers and destroyer escort vessels.
A goal of 260 destroyer escort vessels
were set for the year and over 90 per
cent had been completed on November
25. The Secretary said the goal
would be surpassed before the end of
the year
On April 9, 1943, Secretary Knox
predicted that the number of COM
Blatant vessels in the fleet would be
more than doubled by the end of the
year. Through the efforts of workers
in shipyards and in plants making
component parts this goal was
achieved in less than II months.
Secretary Knox said that despite
the huge gains in ship production dur
ing 1943, schedules for 1914 will be
even heavier and that workers will be
called upon to break the impressive
record they have established this year
