Congress At It Again

The Tolan Committee, which has
been the main government agency
for getting the views of Labor on
the badly needed all-out war
mobilization before the Govern
ment and the public, is under Sc
we're attack.
AS expected, the defeatist Goa
lition in Congress would like to
let this Tolan Committee die out.
This is what every member can
do:
Write to these men, protesting
the adjustment of the Tolan Com
mittee.
/. The decision as to whether
the Tolan Committee is to keep
going or not is up to:
a. Hon. Sam Rayburn, Speaker,
House of Representatives,
Washington, D. G.
b. Hon. John McC ormack, Ma
jority Leader, House of Rep
resentatives.
C. Hon. Joseph w. Martin, Jr.
Minority Leader, House of
Representatives. (McC ormack
and Martin are both from
Massachusetts,; so it is especi-
ally important that UE action
from that state be organized
effectively
2. Without waiting for a mem
bership meeting, individual Off
GERS should wire these men at
once.
3. At the first opportunity, the
stewards should try to get as many
individual letters, wires and post
cards from members as possible.
4. It would help a lot to contact
local Democratic and Republican
leaders, asking them to write their
party's representative in Washing
ton for assistance on this matter.
