ALL SWEDISH LABOR REGISTERS

New York City.-Mail advices from
Sweden give details of a nationwide
registration of all labor in Sweden,
in mid-January, to secure information
which would make possible a rapid
and effective mobilization of the ma
tons labor reserves in time of emer-
gency. All men between Is and 65
years of age not liable to military
service, and all women between Is and
go, had to register, and fill out uues-
tionnaires. A similar muster of woman
labor was made shortly after the out
break of the war, but this was volun-
tary, while the recent registration was
compulsory both for men and women.

POSTWAR PLANNING

MAKING PLANS now to cope with conditions
'A which will arise after this war is ended seems
only sensible to most of us, but it is meeting with
ridcule and opposition from the big interests and
some Congressman and senators. Since President
legislators have decided to take it out of his hands
and name a committee of their own for that pur-
pose.
If our big boys can only promise to look after
postwar conditions well as they helped us pre-
pare for this war, it is time for working people
and others like Vice President Wallace to look
ahead little and lay the groundwork for the
debacle are surely headed for. If we are fight
ing for democracy, let's have little of it our
selves, in spite of what some of leading dailies
say about it.

AMAZING CASE

pLENTY OF queer things have happened in this
war, but nothing queerer than the following
Within the last few days, the President of the
United States has issued drastic order freezing
wages and most farm prices.
The President acted on the theory that if a
worker were permitted to get something more for
his labors we might be plunged into a disastrous
spiral of imitation"
few days later President Roosevelts Depart
ment of Justice announced with good deal of
pride, that Is leading New York retail dry goods
associations had been fined $4,000 each because
they had agreed among themselves that they
would not pay the increased prices for advertising
that the New York Times was endeavorng to
put over on them
1t must be remembered that the Times is a
gold mine," one of the most valuable newspaper
properties in the world, and that those who now
control it got their holdings through Inheritance
We find it difficult to reconcile the two policies
of the administration which we have mentioned
If a small increase in the workingman's wages may
cause initiation, and perhaps lose the war; why will
not stupcndous increase in the revenues of the
New York "Times" produce similar, or even a
more disastrous result?

COMMENT ON WORLD
EVENTS

! Denmark voted overwhelmingly for
democracy in the recent parliamentary
elections. Even the Germans know this
is true, though they are loath to admit
it.
With only 10 days notice of the
elections, with hardly any chance for
electioneering other than distribution
of leaflet saying "Vote," the four
large Danish democratic parties never
theless acquired 365,OOO more votes
than they had in 1889. About 80 per
cent of the electorate went to the
polls, the largest vote cast in Danish
history. The Danish Social-DemO-
cratic (or Labor) party polled 1894, 1886
votes, the Left-Wing Liberals 175,O25,
the Liberals 6,463, the Conservatives
421 1,O51.
| The Nazis, in spite of an apparent
advance of $4,000 votes, in reality lost
about 5000 In 1899 the Danish Nazis
polled 81 ,O32, and the German minority
in Slesvig voted 15,O16 for their own
Nazi candidates. This time the German
minority had been ordered over to the
Danish Nazis, who, despite this gift
of $4,000 votes only increased by 49,
600, making in all 46,04S.
The purely Danish Nazis are there
fore only about 1 per cent of the votes
cast, which was 1,966,O1S. The total
Danish electorate consists of 2,146,324
qualified voters, out of population of
nearly 100000.
X X X
The Danish democratic press and
the Danish leading educators and
that was perfectly clear to the people
that the election had only one single
issue: democracy. Characteristic was
a statement by Professor Brondsted in
the "Politiken" that anyone who re-
| Trained from voting would assist the
enemies of democracy. Previously a
passive attitude was permissible, but
now now.
The "Berlingske Tidende' empha-
sized that the voters should not judge
and choose among the democratic
parties because the elections concerned
the actual foundation of national life.
The same paper also stressed that the
election while expressing Danish ma
tiOnal sovereignty would also show
Danish adherence to northern ideals
and cooperation.
AS the NaziS made an attempt to
claim that the "V's" put up in occu-
pied countries were really their vic
tory signs, so they have tried to claim,
in brOadcasts, that the enormous Dan
ish vote meant that the Danes were
not against the ScaveniuS Government.
Undoubtedly they We're engineered into
permitting the elections by the argu-
ment that the result could be thus
interpreted, but they were outmanouv
cred by the unanimous declarations of
all major parties that faith in democ-
racy, not faith in the government, was
at issue.
That the Germans anticipated some
trick was evident in their statement
that the Danish elections were per-
mitted as a sign of Germanys purely
protective interest" for Denmark,
whose constitution and sovereignty
would be guaranteed if 'the people and
the Government will adopt suitable
attitude"
1t is to be suspected that the over
whelming Danish rush to the polls to
vote for democracy will hardly be con-
sidered suitable, whatever face Ger
man propaganda may try to put on it
in public.

Grade labelling is an issue that will
get as much kicking around as any IN
recent times.
Because whale of lot of money
is involved.
There will be many times when the
truth will be obscured by a furious
fanfare of manufactured fOrensics.
Everyone knows how it is.
Skilled propagandists beat the
bushes, gather in bell wethers and the
bell wethers go to town.
This is all perfectly fair enough.
Lots of us have done it.
But there is this definition to get
straight when thinking about what's
ahead:
Propaganda with truth is one thing;
propaganda of Misrepresentation, or
near,truth, is something else.
X X X
Why should grade labelling be such
a mighty issue?
If YOU have ever bought can of
anything because of the brand name
thereon, then you are an example of
the why"
The United States has been the
breeding ground of the private brand
name-the highly advertised trade
mark or patented device.
Into the promotion of these brands
have gone millions of dollars. The best
promoters and advertising agencies in
the world have laid out and conducted
campaign after campaign.
Examples: Del Monte; Havoline;
Chipso; Corona; Lux; Maxwell
House; White House; White Rose;
Sultana; etc.
A great many of these brand names
are worth fortunes, because, over the
years enormous numbers of consumers
have learned to buy those brands.
Consumers generally buy by brand
names for one of two reasOnS-quality
or price.
The owners of valuable brand names
do not want to see those values washed
And that is the great fear that is in
so many hearts.
1t is assumed that under grade
labelling can of peas marked Grade
Al would be of the same quality, re-
gardless of who the packer might be.
And that assumption is right. So,
the government grade stamp would
become the buying guide.
Some commentators were surprised
when Mr.. John Hartford, of the A. &
L. didn't show up in Washington to
lend his support to grade labelling. Per-
haps Mr. Hartford favors grade label
ing. However, he may have desire
not to have his own Ann Page brand
name coupled with a government grade
mark. We do not know that, but it
could be.
We can all be sure that grade label
ing will come, if it comes, only after
u tough battle of confusion.
We shall have the argument that
grade labelling will increase the grip of
an onrushing socialistic society
Perhaps there is something to that
argument. A great many Americans do
not relish the thought of an increasing
total of state power And it does have
its dangers.
Well, here is suggestion of one
way in which government enforced
grade labelling could be averted-or
could have been, had it been done
sooner:
Let the great associations and insti
tutiOns-the trade associations of can
ners and other professors and manu-
facturers - set up their own central
authority to apply and enforce non
governmental grade labelling. In other
words, let industry set up and enforce
it's own standards, leaving nothing for
government to do about it except say
amen"
Baseball found a way to clean up.
Business could do it just as effectively.
If it is too late it is the fault of
business and of no ono nlSn -C\INN

LONDON, June 5.-The pursuit of
speed records over the Atlantic is
discouraged by the RAF Transport
Command. 1t is, indeed, disciple
nary offense for flying personnel
delivering new aircraft to Britain or
Africa to attempt to beat previous
best flying times. The captains
of bombers crossing the Atlantic
have their flight plans regulating the
routes, zones, attitudes and engine
speeds for each mission designed in
accordance with weather forecasts to
obtain maximum safety, comfort and
fuel economy, as we'll as to avoid
unnecessary wear and tear Periodi-
cally, however. with unusually favor
able conditions for the flight plans,
notable trans-ocean crossings are
made.
For instance, a new NeWfound-
land-to- Britain record of six hours
and u minutes recently was set by
Capt G. r. Buxton, o. B. E, So,
British Overseas AirWays Corp.
pilot, who has made "A North At
lantic crossings for the RAF Trans
port Command. Capt. Buxton MAIN
tanned an average ground speed of
300 m. p. h. in clipping eight min
utes from the old record, set only
a few days previously by fellow
pilot for the Transport Command.
Capt. w. S. May.
Sets New Record.
Capt, May. flying a Liberator with
maximum all-up load of about S.
600 pounds and aided by tailwind
sometimes approaching 100 knots,
made a landfall-t to -landfall cross
ing from Newfoundland (2,200
statute niles in six hours and 20
minutes.
Capt May flew on to an airfield
inside Britain. registering only seven
hours 40 minutes from take to
landing. He thus reduced by 81
minutes the previous test take-off- :
to-landing- field Atlantic flight of
eight hours, one minute, accom-
plished IA months ago by a pilot
officer of the Royal Australian Air
Force in a Hudson twin-engine
bomber. Capt. May few practically
the whole course in dense cloud at
about 10000 feet, and found that
he could not get over it even at
$4,000 feet

ly made is that of Capt, S. T. B.
