PETROLEUM REFINERIES
EMPLOY 10000 WOMEN

Washington, ID. c. - About 10000
women are employed in all types of
work in petroleum refinericS in the
United States, and many more will be
hired before the war is over, Deputy
Petroleum Administrator for War
Ralph X. Davis declared.
Urging L. $. retinerieS to keep up
their production of petroleum prod
uctS by hiring women to Supplant the
men who are called to the armed
forces, Mr.. Davies said:
"EXpcrience has shown that women
can do and are doing excellent worl,
in relinerieS throughout the country.
Despite the fact that the petroleum
industry is losing many skilled work
crS to the draft and to other types of
employment, it is essential that there
shall be no reduction in the processing
of petroleum products because of lack
of manpower. A number of refineries
already are employing women in all
parts of their plants, and the results
have been gratifying. AS the war con-
tinueS, more and more plants will find
it necessary to train women to tasks
that have heretofore been considered
possible only for men to do"

CONFESSION OF ERROR?

'EHE WAR Departments announcement that

have to return many to civilian life to- maintain

The question arises, why were the miners in

LABOR'S NEXT GREAT ADVANCE

WHAT WILL the postwar world be like? That's
w the question you hear these days from labor
leaders all across America and Canada. They know
it will depend upon the thousands OF new union
members and the way they live and work for the
union
The gains in wages and the improvements IN
conditions have drawn men and women INTO the
unions by the thousands. They like what they get
through the unions, and rightly So The unions
stand for a fair distribution of the wealth and
work of the country without exploitation. They
fight for a square deal and square meal tor every
man and his family.
We have raised wages and bettered conditions
but are faced with the truth that these gains have
not won the deep personal loyalty OF many mem
bers. SO often the meetings that may mean fur
ther increases in pay are the only ones really well
attended. There is an Indifference and apathy
restlessnesS and a desire for something more that
is holding up the full effectiveness Of the unions.
That "something more" which we must offer now
will determine the future Of the whole labor move
ment. 1t must be something that will free. the
heart and mind Of every worker and rouse and in
spire him to give his very best for the union.
This next advance must be to answer the moral
and personal problems Of our people as well as the
material problems if we are to free them to give
their best in labOr'S fight for a new world. We
hope to launch new schemes OF cooperative nSur-
ance but we must also insure against conflict be-
tween husbands and wives and between unions.
To step up abors offensive for Moral Re-Arma-
ment is the next great advance IN our progress
We must be able to change MEN and their MO
TlVES as well us wages and conditions.
The new type Of union meeting will be a place
where men and women can find an answer to their
home worries as well as the problems in the shop.
How can there be any enthusiasm to pitch into
abor's battle for new world if your mind is kept
busy meeting arguments with your wife over
money-or the things you don't want to tell? how
you give your best to the union if YOU are
thinking up excuses to give your Wife?it may be
your fault. The way you live. Even if your wife isl
60 per cent wrong and you can put right your
40 per cent.
We are now at the place where every Worker

Labor's highest destiny is to restore human

Legislation to prevent such draft has been Of

Though McNutt's order for the fathers draft
was issued more to force fathers from non-essen

into the Army, the order again put Army limita-
tion to the fore.

COMMENT ON WORLD
EVENTS

Four years after the beginning of the
war, Poland is still suffering ma
tional martyrdom unmatched in mod
ern times. Poles s. Gentiles and Jews
|alike-have been the victims of Nazi
massacre and bitterest persecution.
The food situation alone tells the story.
1t is little short of disastrous for the
Poles, victims of the Nazi theory of
the master race which is also ap-
piled to the distribution of rationed
foodStuffS.
"The meager ratiOnS allowed Poles
by the invaders are not sufficient for
the barest subsistence, says the Polish
Labor Group, with headquarters in
New York. In the actual distribution of
their thesis that the master race"
must eat first, says the labor group,
which tells how the food is allotted. {.
Poles may receive food only in pro-
portion to the productivity and utility
of Polish labor as it affects the Ger
man masters.
In accordance with these principles,
the first to receive the rationed foods
available in the stores are member of
the Wehrmacht German military
fOrceS); members of the NaZi Party
second preference; next come civilian
officials of the German occupation and
administrative apparatus and Germans
from the Reich. Following these in
order of preference are the Volks-
deutSche.
Only after the members of the
master race" are fed, comes the turn
of the Untermenschen (SubhumanS), as
the Poles are designated by the Nazis.
First among these are the Polish
workers employed in German war fac
tories; after them come the workers
of all other factories at the very last,
whatever is left is doled out to the
Polish civilian population, Gentiles and
then Jews.
Employment of prisoners of war on
American railroads, either as main
tenance workers or in any other capac-
ity, was sharply condemned by the
Railway Labor Executives Associa-
ton in Washington, ID. c., speaking in
behalf of all standard railroad labor
organizations.
A resolution adopted at a recent
meeting of the heads of the various
organizations, took cogniZance of pub
liShed suggestions for the use of war
prisoners on railroads and called upon
the President and all government
agencies to disavow any such plans.
The statement pointed out that the en-
ployment of prisoners of war on work
directly connected with war operations
was explicitly prohibited by the Cen
eva convention and added:
'The use of prisoners of war on the
railroads constitutes threat to our
war effort by inviting sabotage of the
most dangerous character"
Our citizens cannot give to the world
1) freedom of speech and expression,
GU freedom of every person to wor-
ship God in his own way, (3) freedom
from want, and (D freedom from fear.
The whole conception of giving or in
fuSing the -Four Freedoms universally
is prepoSterouS. 1t is not idealiSm. 1t
is sheer political buncombe, and is so
recognized abroad.-Ilenry j. Taylor,
