John Laughlin left Wednesday evening for visit of undetermined length at Tenakee Springs. With enjoyment of the spring baths he hopes to relieve his arthritic pains this year, as he did on his last visit there five years ago.

A Good Appointment

Officials of the Greater Toledo War
Chest are to be congratulated for their
Choice of Thomas Burke, vice president
of Local IL, UAW-CIO, as chairman of
this years CIO War Chest Drive.
Due to the growing demands upon the
War Chest, more funds will be necessary
to carry on the work of the organization
this year than ever before. This need will
be met by the CIO in giving to the Chest
In accordance with the desires of the ma
honal and state CI0.
MIR. Burke will bring to his work fine
spirit of humanitarianism and deep un-
derstanding of the problems of those who
are to be benefited by the Chest. His
ability to organize and coordinate the
CLOS share in the drive will be an asset
both to the Chest and the CIO, and guaran-
tees that this years campaign will find the
CIO making its quota and perhaps even
oversubscribing it.
When the War Chest Fund Drive be-
gins in a few weeks, the Toledo CIO, un-
der the able leadership of Thomas Burke,
viii give its share.

One of the first actions of Congress
when it reassembles next month will be to
consider ways and means of raising addl-
SonaI revenue for the prosecution of the
war.
Advance notices indicate that a ma
tional sales tax will be proposed by Con-
gress and that ii will have the blessing
and backing of the big business interests.
That Labor will oppose sales tax is a
foregone conclusion, for Labor has always
opposed and still opposes such tax under
any condition. This opposition will be even
more drastic i'm view of the action of Con-
gress in the early days of the present ses-
sion in destroying the $4,000 per year in
come limitation while wages were frozen
by executive order.
Many arguments, some of them of most
eloquent nature, will be advanced by the
proponents Of the sales tax; but no argu-
ment, regardless how persuasive it might
be, can alter the fact that a national sales
tax bears most heavily on those least able
to bear it.
This war must go on to the end, and it
requires vast sums of money to finance it;
but taxation now as always must be equit-
ably distributed so that everyone pays in
proportion to his ability to meet the tax.
Taxation which proves hardship and in
justice to considerable section of our
population defeats its purpose and causes
resentment and bitterness.
Let's finance the war; but by all means
let it be on the basis of each paying ac-
cording to his means and not as an escape
for those who have the means to pay.

ments involving no great principle, after they
have been agreed to by the Union and manage
ment.
LEADERSHIP ON THE SPOT
AS result of the War Labor Boards lack OF
speed to settle cases, Union leadership all over
the country has been put in a position where it
the blame on the War Labor Board. Spontaneous
walkouts sitdowns, slowdowns, and other forms
of worker protest beyond the control of Union
leadership, result from the Boards delay in set
Ting cases. and creates additional difficulties.
Thanks to the War Labor Board and its pro-
cedure, which require briefs, conciliation, arbi
tration and host of other tme-consuming work
for the Union leadership, those who work in of
ficial capacity in organized labor must be COM
bination of Philadelphia lawyer and Supsrman
MUST BE CORRECTED
There isn't Union official in the country who
doesn't welcome the Presidents efforts and wish
him success in getting some speed into the War
Labor Board. The evils which have grown out
of tn Board must be corrected and soon, if trou-
bles which have been occasional are to be pre-
vented from growing into regular occurrences.
We must have more speed in cases and very
soon.
Lest there be any doubt about the workers, it
may be safely stated that they have patientY
borne the long delays which have grown out h.
their cases, a patience which should not be ps~-.
to too great a test simply because they have not
engaged in widespread work stoppages. When this
war is over, there will be time enough to talk
about the War Labor Board and what the work.

they ask for is a more rapid clearing of their
cases.

world, are not going to come home and repeat the
same dreary drama which their fathers went
through following the last war.
Don't let anyone make you believe that the
millions of people who are now working long hours
at hard work producing the materials of war are
going to ever again rest content to sit idly at home
grumbling in powerless unemployment.
Regardless of whether we realize it or not, this
war is changing the thinking of the masses of the
American people. 1t has awakened them as they
have never before been awakened. 1t has force
fully brought home to them many of the things
which they had been told before, but which needed
the present war to illustrate.
War speeds up social changes, and this war of
worldwide proportions is changing the world
faster than it has ever been changed before.
NO DREAM
l certainly do not share the view of those who
doubt that the workers will have great voice in
forming the postwar and drawing up the post
war program for America. No program, regard.
less how well intentioned it might be can succeed
unless it takes the workers and their welfare into
full consideration. Labor will be in there after the
war with strong voice and the demand that IN
be given the right to work and live in decency
security.
Labor is going to demand employment as it has
never demanded it before. 1t is going to insist
that employment be more profitable, not only to
the workers, but to the employers by means of
unemployment benefits which will give the unem-
ployed decent standard of living
WORRY
One of the things which seems to worry some
of the business and political leaders of the coun-
try, is the fear that if unemployment benefits are
increased it will be an incentive to the lazy and in
competent. This is ridiculous, for system of en-
ployment could be perfected in peacetime which
would be fully as effective as the system now be-
ing used to step up production.
Obviously, the unemployed not problem
during these days of war, nor need they be in the
postwar days, unless for reasons yet to be dis
closed, those who control the system so will it.
Upon settlement of the problem of employment
and unemployment lies to considerable degree
the answer to the peace of the postwar world.

supposedly responsible for de-
creased production just isn't
there. In only one plant is there
a real shortage of manpower,
Boeing's, in Seattle.
Hershey's move was seized up
on by the Costello committee.
Representative John NJ. Costello
3D., CALI summoned Hershey
before him. for a one-man hear
ing in Los Angeles, and made
the papers by declaring, "lf
there are sufficient grounds to
warrant further deferment of
aircraft workers, then this should
not be done at the expense of
fathers =. >"
OF course, it might occur to
some that workers, just like
other men, become fathers. But
a new authority on the home
thinks fathers are predominantly
small business men. We allude to
Senator Burton X. Wheeler 3D.,
Mont.). To many he is dis
rupter and defeatist. To the Chi
cago Tribune, though, he is the
"outspoken critic of any move
that would break up families"
And, wiring Chairman Paul V.
McNutt of tho War Manpower
Commission Aug. 5, Wheeler said
the proposed draft of fathers
would make it increasingly diff
ficult for manv small business
men to carry on"
WHAT ABOUT PRODUCTION!
What about production? One
thing is sure. The procurement
agencies, the Army and Navy,
whose high chiefs have done most
moaning about complacency,
with the accent placed on COM
placency of the workers, are
themselves along with War
Mobilizer James F. Byrnes-most
guilty of complacency and of al
lowing complacency on the part
of certain manufacturers.
The Truman Committee report
on Curtiss- Wright, which Incl
dentally came out after condi-
tions were largely corrected and
paralyzed the management and
discouraged workers, thus low
ering production, failed to pin
enough responsibility on the
Army, Capital critics say,
What is completely overlooked,
particularly by Office of War
Mobilization Director James +.
Byrnes and Bernard Baruch and
others who are making study

they've said on t for the record,

power problem is that it's not a
manpower problem.

Some Old Story

information that the anti-DeAngel0
bloc in the City Council is active again,
plotting the removal of the safety director,
is no surprise. Chances are that the De-
Angelo haters never quit plotting against
him since the last election.
Looking for reasons why Mr.. De-
Angelo should be signalled out for removal
at each municipal election should not prove
too difficult. Suffice it to say that De-
Angeles enemies would be his friends II
he would '1isten to reason" and stay
hitched.
AS safety director of Toledo, Edward
DeAngelo has given the city the best ad-
ministration of its police and fire depart
ments which it has experienced In many
wears. moreover, he has kept Toledo well
TO the front in the matter of efficient law
enforcement during these war days when
a manpOwer shortage has hit the police de-
partment along with many other lines of
city service.
Reports that City Manager Schoon-
maker will go if the anti-DeAngelO coun-
cilmen win the majority in the next Coun-
Gil is very likely true, and the only reason
MIR. SchOOnmaker is slated for removal is
because he must be eliminated in order to
get to the safety director.
1t must be perfectly apparent, even to
those who are politically innocent, that
there is more at stake in the attempts to
rid the city administration of Safety Dl-
rector DeAngelO than mere job which
MIR. DeAngelo could very well get along
without and till manage to live. The stakes
are higher than few thousand dollars
year.
And who would want to control the
safety director and for what purpose?
That is question which most TOledoans
can anwer for themselves. Those who
give the wrong answer could hold con-
yention in the nearest telephone booth.

also have the problem of how
they live, how far they have to
travel to work, what kind of
place they have for their families
to live in, whether there's hos
pital nearby, and schools.
Now that there ar. so many
women workers. you have the
problem of who takes care of
their children, of where and how
they do their shopping, of how
they get laundry done. One rea-
son Boeing's has more than 100
per cent turnover because the
management rejected an inplant
shopping scheme proposed by la
Dor end VINO. The management
was afraid it would offend the
local merchants-who have more
business than they have goods
anyway. No attempt by the man
agement there to solve the child
care problem, either.
