A Message to
Every American

The following paragraphs are
taken from a booklet that has been
issued by Newman jeffrey. chief
of the Labor Division of the Office
of Civilian Defense. They show the
importance of keeping your mouth
shut during this war.
Just before dawn, six weeks
from today, United States war and
troop ships will slide over the
horizon unseen and approach a
certain enemy island. AS dawn
breaks, our warships will begin an
intense bombardment while our
troops race for the shore in inva-
sion barges. Simultaneously, roar
ing down on the island, United
States paratroop planes will arrive
overhead, the sky will blossom
with 'chutes and 10 minutes later
our men vii have surprised the
enemy's airfield. Six houre later
our invading forces will be mop
ping up, and not too many days
later you'll be smiling as you read
in the headlines of a United States
victory.
But will you? Is that what you'll
be reading? Or will the enemy's
bits and pieces" system have done
its job? You see last Tuesday
evening, on a bus, the wife of a
shipping clerk in an Iowa drug
house remarked to a friend: Were
staying home tonight-Al's tired.
He shipped 80 cases of quinine to
the Army today
And last night, IN a restaurant,
a friend of a friend of a soldier
said to her girl friend: Helen
found out why Earl hasn't written
lately. He's all right-its just that
his arms been swollen from inocu-
lations. Don't know why he got
'en, though-he was inoculated
before, when he first joined the
paratroops"
And in a lot of other places a
lot of other people-as Americans
have-talked about their
jobs, their friends, and what they
were doing. And a few of their
remarks were heard by the enemy.
Many more were not overheard
the enemy isn't everywhere, does
not hear everything. But some
were heard by enemy agents and
sy~mpathizers whose instructions
are: Keep your eyes and ears
open. Mingle with people. Report
everything you hear-don't try to
its value yourself. Leave
that to those who are higher than
YOU"
The moral is, KEEP YOUR
CLOSED"

Defeat the French Bill

ANY reader of the Dayton Union News during the past
two months has read of the fight that Labor is making
against the French Bill (SB 1881 that is in the process of
hearing in the Ohio House of Representatives.
That bill is one of the most vicious attacks that has
ever been launched against the working man and
woman. The details of this bill have been printed time
and again in the columns of this paper u.
The thing that we aOant particularly to point out to the
membership of the CIO is the fact that such bills are being
introduced in every legislative body in the nation. The failure
of the CLIO members to cote during the last election bears q
great part of the blame.
There are also some motives that bear careful analysis
in the ranks of our representatives in government. Mr..
important profession but it has a sinister bearing on his
recent activities.
In introducing his Bill, Mr.. French admits that he
has never worked in industry. He admits that in the
county from which he was elected, (Delaware) that
there are no industrial plants, and no Unions. He says
that he has never been an employer.
Those are the reasons that Mr.. French offers as his quail
f~icdtions to be a logical man to introduce a bill to regulate
Labor! Silly -. isn't it?
CIO members can do something to help repair the dam
sentatipes and protest the passage of this BILL The names Of
these Representatives appear each issue of this paper. WILL
YOU BE ONE TO WRITE?

WOMEN'S
DOINGS

In the course OF a survey made
last week 1T was discovered that 8
out OF 10 grocery stores were not
observing OPA price ceilings on
! fresh produce. Some stores were
charging double to triple the legal
ceiling price for green beans, onions
and cabbage. OPA began check
up and expose which led to the
opinion that housewives are not
aware OF legal ceiling prices that
they should pay and were not re-
porting violations.
AS a result, 100 volunteer price
assistants and the district price
panel Of OPA conducted a check
up Of prices charged for vegetables
and fresh produce. The maximum
flat prices for this week can be
found on this page. Watch your
chart each week and check your
grocer. Only through reporting
overcharging to the ration board can
these vlolators be checked. thus
rendering this anti-infationary
measure effective.

mess and Professional Womens
Clubs, who surveyed the feminine
employment fields OF lawyers, ac-
countants, librarians, teachers, Sec
retarieS, and other professional
fields, says that the most lucrative
is the medical profession in New
Mexico. More women doctors make
over $4,000 a year there than in
any other state.
Teachers, are for the most part,
the lowest paid OF the professionals
considered. Secretaries lead the
field for high pay in the clerical
line, but stenographers and book
keepers are fairly close.
Newer fields OF employment in
which women have become engaged
primarily since the beginning OF
the war we're not considered in

Turkey Sought
So Yanks Will
Have For Xmas

American fighting men all over
the world are going to have turkey
for Thanksgiving, Christmas, and
New Years Day. They may be a
long way from home but Uncle Sam
is determined to make certain that
every fighting man asea or on
shore-in the vanguard OF the march
on Berlin-or Toxic, or sailing
the seven seas, will have taste
OF home on the days he has been
accustomed to celebrate with good
eating with the folks back in the
States"
The War Food Administr to-
day called upon the American tur-
key industry to provide approx
mately 10 million pounds Of turkey
meat in August and September for
shipment to American armed forces
overseas. The turkey will supply
the main course Of Thanksgiving,
Christmas, and New Years Day
dinners on every battlefront where
soldiers. sailors. Marines, Coast
Guardsmen and airmen are fight
ing.
The request, VIA officials said,
also carries an appeal to professors,
packers. hotel and restaurant OPP
orators, and consumers TO forego
selling, serving, or eating turkey
for a few weeks during the early
season until this urgent require
ment for American military forces
is met.
1t is the "early bird" officials ex-
planned, which is needed to fulfill
this request. Shipments must be
made so as to assure arrival OF the
turkeys for the holiday dinners
they are destined TO grace. This will
make il necessary for producers to
market them in ample time for pro-
cessing Professors are expected to
have 2 million pounds ready for
delivery between September and
Is, another million pounds be-
tween September IS and 80, and
the remaining 6 million pounds as
soon thereafter as possible.

AKA Fights
For Child
c are BIZ

Children OF thousands OF Negro
women war workers would be cared
for in day nurseries or after school
programs II the Alpha Kappa Al
pha National Non-Partisan Council
on Public Affairs is successful In
having inserted in the $40 900, 10000
War Area Child Care Act-Sll30,
an amendment 10 compel states to
provide equally for Negro and
white children. the Council stated
this week.
The Child Care Act has passed
the Senate and awaits Congress re-
turn from recess TO be acted upon
in the House. The Alpha Kappa
Alpha has opposed the act in its
present form, favoring the present
plan whereby child care in war
areas is administered through Fed
erai Works Agency and Lanham
Act Funds directly to the commun-
ity in need. The plan Of Sll30 would
be 10 turn funds over 10 three
agencies-the United States De-
partment OF Education, the Chill
drens Bureau, and the Federal Sc
curity Administration. whose rec
ords on the distribution Of public
funds is very bad The state control
under Sll30 OF the money would
result in a mere pittance being
granted for the care Of Negro chill
dren in some areas. In other areas
no provisions would be made for
Negro children, the AKA Council
maintained The policy OF the Fed
eral Works Agency has a we'll estao-
lished policy OF non-discrimination.
The AKA Council has the sup
port of the Children's Bureau OF
the U. S. Department OF Labor for
its proposed amendment to provide
for equal distribution OF the funds
regardless OF race, color, creed, or
national origin.
Quite simply we have two alter
natives, states Mrs. Thomasina
Walker Johnson, legislative repre-
sentative OF the AKA Council on
Public Affairs. Either the money
must continue to come from the
Lanham Act Fund under the FWA,
or we must without fail have in
serted the DISCRIMINATION
amendment. Sll30 is too important
a measure to be allowed to pass in
its present form. The health and
well-being Of uncountcd .umbers
OF Negro children depend upon its
fair administration. as does the full
utilization OF Negro womanpower."
