SYNTHETIC UPROAR

DRAFT deferment Of Government workers re-
~ Gently excited Washington papers and some
Others into verbal spasm. They certainly gave
the suffering welin real workout.
Even the President had to come to the defense
of one man the papers chose as a special target.
In long letter, he explained, convincingly, why
the man Of more value in his Government
position than he would be in the armed forces.
Now the uproar has largely subsded. 1t was
"a synthetic that didn't work. The public remained
calm.
Large numbers of Government workers, in
Washington and in every state, have been drafted,
many right out the War and Navy Departments.
Here and there may be individuals who have been
protected undeservedly from the draft but by and
large there has been no favoritism of this sort
1t is safe to say that virtually all the Govern
ment workers are giving their country more valu-
able service in their Civil Service jobs than they
could give it in uniform.
The whole episode is strongly suggestive of
the press and radio uproar over 'absenteeism' in
war plants cents worth of cause for a million
dollars worth of effect.
However heartily this country may take to
synthetic beefsteaks and automobile tires, it re-
tains reassuring capacity to reject anti-labor
bunkum.

WORKERS PRAISED FOR BIG
ROLE IN AFRICA VICTORY

Washington, ID. G. GLNS). - Men
and women in American industries
We're given Il big share of credit for
victories in North Africa in message
from Cen Dwight ID. Eisenhower, sent
from his North Africa headquarters
and addressed to the working men and
women of the United States. He said
in the message:
Our fighting men, standing shoulder
to shoulder with our gallant Allies, the
British and French, have driven the
enemy out of North Africa. In this vic
tory the munitions made by American
industry, labor and management, play
ed very important role. There is
glory for us all in this achievement
The War Department, in making
public the message, said Gen. Eisen-
hover had reported that many man
agement and labor organizations in the
United States had sent congratulatOry
messages to his North African head
quarters.

FREEZING INJUSTICE
THE MONTH of April recorded unprecedented
and cataclysmic events in the field Of labor.

'I'f1E MONTH OF April recorded unprecedented
and catacysmic events in the field Of labor.
On April 8 the President issued a sweeping
executive order. The line must be held, he said
against price increases and against wage IN
creases. The National War Labor Board was made
subordinate to the Economic Sterilization Direc-
tor The chairman Of the War ManpoWer Com
mission was directed to make observance of the
executive order the condition of placing workers
or permitting workers to accept jobs.
In the confusion that followed it was not ceal
whether the Board would continue to correct IN
equities, whether pending claims were to be de-
cded, whether wage increases which would not
increase prices could still be granted.
Before these questions clarified the chair
man of the War Manpower Commission issued q
regulation forbidding employers in essential ac-
tivites to hire workers previously employed IN
essential activities and pay them higher wages
unless under the terms of wage stablllzatlor
agreement. Workers forbidden to accept
employment except in accord with the Presidents
now order Penalties of fine or Imprisonment were
fixed for violations by either employers or work
erS The only escape for workers IN essential
activities apparently was to take a vacation from
work for thirty days
President Roosevelts wage-freeze order, fol
lowed by Mr.. McNutts job-treeZe decree, created
widespread confusion and resentment. The Amerl-
can Federation Of Labor Immediately asked fOl
notifications. In view Of the many sacrifices
workers are willingly making, such arbitrary ac
ton seemed calculated to do the war effort more
harm than good.
1t is not necessary to freeze the machinery OF
fair distribution in order to prevent initiation. II
is simple justice that distribution of the returns
from the Joint work Of labor and management
should be equitable. Workers today are producing
more than ever before; their share must increase
proportonately.
Wage increases in excess of adjustments tC
meet increased wartime living costs could be paio
in war bonds, as labor has proposed. Wage IN
creases granted by the War Labor Board and ap-
proved by the Economic Sterilization Director
which neceSSitate price increases are so few IL
number as to have appreciabe nfationaly
effect
TO freeze workers in Jobs at wages not adjust
ed to the steadily rising cost of living is tanta-
mount to freezing the machinery Of justice.

THE FUTURE OF SOCIAL SECURITY

tREFORE MANY days go by, the American Fed
II Grafton of Labor will have introduced in the
Congress of the United States new bill liberal
|izing the Social Security program In the main,
the federation will ask for a national system of
employment security. The present system is a
|federal-state system. The federation has spent
months of research in this field and has reached
the conclusion that the best social insurance serv
ice to the members of the federation and to all
wage earners will be given under national sys-
TEN of employment security The national system
will insure uniformity of payments and uniformity
of policies. In addition the federation is prepared
to recommend a widening of coverage for many
workers now outside the social insurance program,
and also seek to widen benefits to include dis
Liability insurance, health insurance, and possibly
one or two other types of benefits The federation
lis taking progressive stand 1t is claiming lead
Iership in this field it should since it represents
the principal beneficaries of social insurance.
The federations bill is a good bill. 1t is in line
with what the workers are standing for in Eng
land under the Bevelidge plan, and it is close to
the evolution of social security in this country.
Every wage Garner should study this bill and give
lit full support. There is crisis in the social Sc
Icurity camp. Only the workers pick up this
program and carry it on to needed changes and a
secure future.

NO CHAINS ON OUR PRESS

lTHE FUNDAMENTAL guarantee of all our
freedoms is the freedom Of expression through
speech and press, and this we must safeguard at
Jail COSTS Without freedom of expression we have
mo assurance that we are hearing the facts and
information which should guide us in our choice
Iof policies and representatives.
Private ownership of the press, so that each
publication is free to gather and interpret the
news and publish It's conclusions with due OBJ
servance of those rules which safeguard the rights
of individuals, has been the traditional practice in
|the United States Essential to the effectiveness
of free press is freedom of access to the truth.
A free press is invaluable to our nation in
maintaining the freedom of discussion on new
issues and the developments, both international
and domestic, which lie ahead of u.s. Questions are
ARISING daily that virtually concern us as people
and as individuals. We have discovered that Amer
leans cannot live apart from the rest of the world
but must share with all peoples the RESPONSE
bility for our common destinies In the future our
national political problems will be concerned with
international relations as well as domestic mat
ters. The final Judge of policies in both fields is
the will of the voting public of our nation. The
extension of the responsibility of the voters in
lcreases the Importance of the services of a free
press.
1t is commonly understood that our State De-
partment has arranged series of international
conferences to consider matters that need mme-
diate action. These conferences will deal with
)non-mlitary subjects. Deliberations of such con-
|ferences should be reported to the people of
America. We should be informed of the work and
results of these conferences from as many points
lof view as our free press affords.
We urgently insist that the bulWark of human
|freedom-a free press-be zealously maintained
|durnng these days of stress. Other rights have
been invaded and restricted by the necessities of
lwar but the only restriction upon free press
and free speech that should be tolerated is re-
|strcton in respect to military matters involving
the conduct of the war.

LABOR MANAGEMENT WORK
TOGETHER in RED CROSS DRIVE,

Washington, ID. C.-Among reports
to National Red Cross headquarters on
local campaigns in the Red Cross War
Fund was the following tribute to Ia
Dor and management cooperation, re-
ceived in a letter from William G.
Roderick, chairman of the Akron Red
Cross Chapter:
''The adoption of the labor-manage-
ment plan in the larger industries
created such Il feeling of unity in the
entire community that it has made it
impossible for us . to measure in
dollars the value to the Red Cross of
having full and complete cooperation
of both organized labor and manage
ment. 1t is difficult for us to express
adequately our appreciation to the
leaders of the labor unions, or to the
officials of the companies who made
this War Fund success. Without the
full cooperation of both, we were help
less With that cooperation we are
exceedingly proud of the record that
they have made for this chapter"
Both CIO and AFL unions partici-
pated in the campaign. Presidents Of
each local union named labor repre-
sentatives and initiated plans with
management for labor management
committees which carried on sOlicita-
ton in every factory department and
shift.

PEOPE NOT SO DENSE

SINCE THE United Nations victory in Tunisia
- a number Of high Government officials have
thought it necessary to blast at what they assert
is public belief that the war is won.
They are setting up a straw man to knock 1t
down More than that, they are insulting the in
teigencc Of the American people.
Why is ii that some people in high places il
Washington can't get over the idea that this is /;
nation Of children?
OF course the victory in Tunisia has eated the
people. 1t should. But there is no evidence what
ever that anybody thinks it more than the first
victory Of many others that must be won before
the Axis is licked
The American people are lot tougher minded
than some Of their would-be leaders think. They
don't need to be told that one victory in Africa
hasn't which must be in Europe
And they don't need to be continually told that
they must be prepared for heavier and heavier
casualty lists, either They know that - better
than anybody else. Who's fighting this war
anyway?

PAY RISE OF $4,000 VOTED
TO THE l. &. G. BY SENATE

WaShingtOn.-The Senate voted to
increase the salary of Interstate Com
merce Commission members from $1O,-
600 to $4,000 year.
Senator Mckelar protested that
ANY one getting $4,000 a year should
be satisfied at this critical period,
but withheld his objection when Sena-
tor Wheeler declared that the l. G. G.
was bearing "the greatest burden ever
imposed on any commission in the his
tory of the, United States" and that,
as result of Federal pay increases,
some /. c. c. employees were receiving
more than the commissioners.
The action was on an amendment by
Senator Wheeler to the Independent
Offices Appropriations Bill.

TWO NOTABLE STRUCTURES

Is TIlERE built out of the long story of the
past, some special Towering of the humanties,
some slightly larger outpouring of compassion, in
our Jewish unions than is found elsewhere?
Whether that may be or may not be, it is
worth noting and noting well that in London
there is fine building which houses club for
British merchant seamen, donated by the Inter
national Ladies' Garment Workers. A tablet on the
facade states modestly, Erected by the lLGWU.'
Somewhere near Chungling, China, struc-
ture soon will arise, to bear tablet with SINH
arly inscription. The money, up to 100000, has
been made and accepted. David Dubinsky made
the offer Nine. Chang kai-Shek accepted.
