More Fuses, Wiring
TO Become Available

Homeowners may soon be able to
obtain more electric fuses and cleo
trio wiring devices, L. A. Welch,
director of the War Production
Boards regional ONCE said today.
Restrictions on the use OF copper
and copper base alloy in renewable
electric fuses and wiring devices
have now been removed. he said.
In recent months steel has been
used in the manufacture OF these
products, but production OF cleo
trio fuses has been seriously cur
tailed by the additional screw ma
chine time required to process steel
and by the difficulty in obtaining
deliveries OF steel rod, Welch said.
Furthermore, It was found that
steel would corrode after a few
weeks and electric devices would
become imperative.
The return to copper and copper
base alloys will result in a consid-
cradle saving in man-hours, increas-
ed production, and more satisfac-
tory products. Control over distr-
bytion of the products remains I'M
changed, and non-renewable fuses
are still subject to the restrictions
on the use OF copper and copper
base alloy.

whelming torrent of bombs, bullets, guns,
tanks, planes, ships, and shells.
That's why we're asking you. in this one
month of April alone, to lend Uncle Sam l3
billions of dollars-by buying War Bonds.
I3 billions of extra dollars--over and above
any buying that you'd be doing anyway
A lot Of money
OF course, Is billion dollars is a lot of
money. It'll take sweat and tears to raise it.
It'll mean going ,cithout now. But also--it
will mean savings now-to buy later. It'll
mean giving up everything you can't square
with your conscience, so that we, US, our
children, can have a better, more decent
place to live in when this war is won.
The drive is on
So during this month of April, If SOMEONE
calls on you TO ask you 10 buy War Bonds
in this 2ND WAR LOAN DRIVE, will yon
buy to the limit-and then buy more?
Better yet, will you 60 to your Bank, Post
Office, or wherever you're used to buying
your Bonds-and buy NOW? Will you lend
extra money this month? Money that can
hasten the day of Victory? Money that can
help TO save American lives.
Money buys MONEY!
Remember, what you're really buying with
your money is still more money. For after
all, these Bonds are money! Money plus!

a MERICA - Let's be frank about it -.
~ SO far, many of us back home have
~ been fighting this war from an easy
chair. Many of us have bought War Bonds
out of extra cash, out OF money We didn't
miss too much. We haven't been really
tough with ourselves.
But this war is hard. downto.reality
war. And many Of our boys are dying in il
We've got TO buy MORE
So your government asks you to buy
Bonds and more Bonds-io get really tough
with yourself. We're asking you to give up
the frills and "extras."
We know how human il is not to make
sacrifices until the crisis drives us TO il. In
England they felt the same way until the
bombs started falling.
Bombs are such persuasive things. But
just as persuasive ought TO be the spirit OF
our brothers, sons, husbands.
n YOU could see
Look at il this way-suppOse you had
magic carpet that could take you TO Africa
and New Guinea. Suppose you could hear
the groan of American boys wounded, and
American boys dying. -. Say now, how
many Bonds would you buy?
Thut kind Of war
THEY are dying. And they will keep on
dying until we drown the enemy in an over.

America"
Says u. S. Must Preserve Peace
Green emphatically opposed Il ma
tional service act, urged labor repre-
sentation at the peace tible and de-
clared that America must abandon iSo-
sponsibility in preserving world peace.
The AFL chief promised that labor
would make a survey of the war man
power situation to promote better utii-
ization of workers because labor was
opposed to the enactment of forciblo
measures to compel free American
workers to do things against their
will
Discussing the place of the United
States in world affairs, Green de-
clared:
"rhe war has taught us that Amer
lea cannot isolate herself from the
rest of the world We know that our
peaceful intentions are not enough.
America must Join with other nations
of good will to preserve peace through
out the civilized world
Prepared To Aid Free Enterprise
That is why he added. labor de
mands place at the peace table to
see to it that the will of the people is
not thwarted by professional and inter
national diplomats"
Green discussed postwar domestic
problems and said that organized labor
was prepared to help in expansion of
the free enterprise system and eX-
pressed the hope that business leaders
would also be prepared.
The free enterprise SYSTEM he de-
clared, faces Il life or death test in
the postwar period. business leaders
must be prepared to move boldly and
swiftly. They must be prepared To re-
convert their plants almost overnight.
They mist face the risk and reSpon-
Sibility of investing the npcC ssary
funds or the people will lose confidence
in them. We dare not and must not
offer our returning soldiers bread
