prove that either labor or management
is not doing it's share.
''It is no longer necessary to say
again and again. he declared, "that
labor and management have pulled
together in cooperative effort to win
the war. History will record that they
have done their full share. No word of
mine will add to this unvarniShed
truth. Anyone who may take eXcep-
tiOn to these statements is thinking
of isolated cases and not of the main
stream of events. Now, however, we
are thinking in terms not only of our
present obligations and loyalty, but
also of our future obligations and OBJ
jectives."
'Difficult Challenge" Seen
The Cancellation Service head add
ed:
'UnquestiOnably the wars demands
on manpower have settled upon labor
added responsibilities which it must
continue to bear. New sources of
strength, skill, cooperation, ingenuity,
and organized effort have been tapped
to meet our present problems and more
will be necessary to meet future Obli-
cations. This will be no easy task. 1t
will be the most difficult challenge ever
presented to the men and women who
toll.
whatever problems there are, our
certain knowledge is this: we can meet
them only as we face them frankly,
openly, honestly, and in the spirit of
cooperation between labor and man
agement which is now the foundation
stone of our present productive sue
cess"
Cancellation Record Cited
The speaker went on to stress the
common stake of all in the economic
success of the nation and pointed out
that eve shall continue to have prob
lens of human relations which must
be ironed out on the domestic front
as we'll as in the courts of interna-
tional relationship" He urged "leader-
ship of high order to usher in the
day of peace after the war.
Definite and successful methods of
meeting labor relations problems have
been learned through conciliation and
conference table methods, Steelman
said. He continued:
For 30 years the L. S. Cancellation
Service has been helping labor and
management groups find satisfactory
solutions to their problems through
peaceful, voluntary procedures. In the
past year we were able to settle over
9,4OO labor disputes involving 100000
workers.
Most Disputes Settled
''In addition to settling labor dis
putes last year, the service completed
115 technical surveys and handed
down 731 arbitration awards. OF all
the disputes brought to the service in
the threatened strike and controversy
stage, we were able to settle more than
95 per cent Of the cases without any
interruption of work Whatsoever"

NUTRITION AND LABOR

vegetables should be cooked in as little

for these kitchen commandments. 1t
so happens that some of the vitaminS
contained in the vegetables are com

Rough treatment, such as prolonged
cooking and exposure to dir, changes
them and destroys those wonderful
properties which help in building the

much water removes them. When much
water is available, the vitamins leave
the vegetable matter and become dis
solved in the water. When the water is
thrown out, as is customary with such
cooks, the sink gets the vitamins and
the family gets what is left, which
isn't much. In exposing vegetables to
air we also help bring the vitamins in

1t is precisely for these reasons that
too much stirring is not desirable ll

and therefore speed up the process OF

is also for these reasons that scientific
cooking demands boiling vegetables for
a short time in covered containers and
without stirring. 1t is for similar rea-
