Fleet Massinq
Blows at Allied
SEQ Route Looms

LONDON, March 6 @ -
Wide speculation over the pos.
sibility that the Germans were
planning a major attack on AL
lied supply lines to Russia was
stirred today by publication Of
dispatches to two London news
papers-which failed to state the
source of their information -
that a powerful concentration Of
German fighting ships was being
assembled in the Trondheim
area of Norway.
Stories in the Evening Stand
ard and the Daily Telegraph
said the 35,000-ton battleship
Tirpitz, queen of Hitler's war
fleet, the aircraft carrier Graf
Zeppelin, the 26, 000-ton Scharn-
horst. at least two cruisers Of the
Hyper class and q number q
fast destroyers were in the COM
centration.
The prospect that the Germans
might attempt to break out Of
their Fjord hideaway suggested
the possibility Of an even greater
Allied ship hunt than the one
which ended the Bismarclk's e.

So|ons Frown
on Politics
Deery Injection
Of 4th Term Issue
BY JACK BELL

WASHINGTON, March 8 -
R)-A suggestion by Senator
Guffy (D-Pa) that no tradition
bars fourth term for President
Roosevelt if the American peo-
pie want to keep him in office
aroused from both Democratic
and Republican Senators today
the protest that this is no time to
talk politics.
Guffey told the Senate yester-
day in a prepared speech re-
viewing Mr.. Roosevelt's accom-
plishments during 10 years in
the White House that the Amer
lean people Judge our Presi-
dents by what they do and what
they are, keep them and get rid
of them to suit ourselves, not to
suit the convenience or party
ambition or politics as usual"
Senator Brooks (R-IlD told
reporters he interpreted Cuff
fey's statement that there is mo
American tradition which says
a good president cannot serve
four terms in the White House"
as further evidence that some
Democrats were trying to inject
politics into the war effort.
THE New Dealers are con.
stantly injecting politics into the
war situation and blaming the
other fellow for doing it," he
declared.
Senator Lucas (D-IlD, a long
time supporter of the Presidents
policies, said he thought it was
no time for either emocrats or
Republicans to be talking about
politics. The Republicans are
Just as active in politics as the
Democrats, he asserted.

Postwar Planning

Frederick {. Crawford, president of
the National Association of Manufacturers,
and other officers of that organization met
last week in Cincinnati to take part in the
Southern Ohio Postwar Conference.
Despite the fact that NAM leaders gave
conflicting statements on postwar oppOr-
tunities and planning, they all agreed that
free enterprise" should be retained.
In recent weeks, the NAM has shown
marked interest in postwar conditions and
is becoming more active in getting its
views across to the public. Very definitely,
the NAM indicates its intention of playing
an important part in the country's post
war situation, and is leaving no stones un-
turned to insure its position.
Labor would do well to copy the con
Germ and activity shown by this group of
self-seeking industriaIists and busy itself
Immediately in preparating for the post
war era.
This is the time to quit talking and be-
gin acting. Now is the time to organize
and plan for the part we intend TO play in
peacetime.
Since this war is very likely TO end
quickly, we should begin TO prepare with
this eventuality in mind, and not be
caught short by sudden unexpected ces-
sation of hOstilities.

A Light Downs

Defeat of the presidential veto of the
Smith. .ConnalIy. Harness anti.strike bill be-
comes clearer in the light of what is going
on in Washington.
Assured defeat of the price rOlI-back
subsidies gives significance to the anti
strike bill, for it indicates that Congress is
less concerned with preventing strikes than
ii is in protecting profiteers.
Combine the War Labor Boards func-
ton with the action of Congress in defeat
ing the price rOll-back subsidies, and its
overriding of the Presidents veto and it
becomes as clear as day that the only pur-
nose which Congress had in mind was to
nrotect a selfish minority from the just
wrath of the workers of the country.
The stage is now all set. ExOrbitant
prices will remain The II per cent little
steel formula" will also remain. Prices
NAV even be increased, for il is evident
that the next step in the planned cam
paign of the profiteeers is to render the
Office of Price Administration pOwerless.
When the OPA has been left hanging
on the ropes and prices begin to rise, the
workers will demand increased wages. Re-
fusal of the War Labor Board to grant in
creases in wage rates will cause dissatis
faction and perhaps strikes, and that is
when the Smith COnnally bill will be used
to beat the workers into line.
Perhaps the workers of the country
will now realize the devious methods used
by those who control a puppet Congress to
get control of the country during time
when the majority of the people are pre-
occupied with the war. Perhaps the work
ers will now understand the forces at work
behind the scenes in Washington and will
do something about it. Perhaps.
As matters now stand, the outlook on
the economic front for Labor is dark, and
the storm isn't half over.

curing of price rollbacks to the Nav 15 1912
level in order that the price structure and wage
level of the workers will be more nearly in eoui-
lbrium
Despite the fact that the business interests of
the country have sought to delay and defeat our
desires, the fact still remains that unless we do
secure the things to which we are in all Justice
entitled, then the imbalance will persist and give
rise to increasing uneasiness and unrest among
the workers.
Efforts of big Business interests to de-
feat and sabotage the OPA, eliminating with the
defeat of the subsidy plan to finance the price
rolbacks, serves but to increase the nsistance of
labor that this problem of initiation be dealt with
promptly or the results of its defeat will lie
squarely on those who seek to gain the advantage
during these critical days.
INITIATION EVIDENT
1t doesn't require any great economic knowl-
edge to see through the efforts to wipe out OPA.
Once this highly important branch of the war
time government service has been completely
nulllfled, 1T will become an easy task for those
who stand to gain the most to begin the nfla-
tionary trend upward.
But those who reap the benefits of initiation
will also reap the results, for initiation once
started is difficult to control, and its beginning
large scale, would, in the long run, create
conditions which of labor do not want to see
Initiation would defeat the purpose of the WLB
and almost force it to adjust it's formula outside
the Is per cent figure which it now uses as its
guide in granting wage increases Moreover, it
would undoubtedly lead to labor disorders and
unrest, the scope of which is unpredictable.
1t is to our interest to use all our influence to
prevent the destruction of the Office of Price
Administration, for if this occurs the workers
shall be the victims of rampant initiation
| would like to have many Of our members
as possible sign the petitions now being circulated
in all shops addressed to Congress and ask
ing that the prices be rolled back to the May Is
level Please sign these petitions at your earliest
possible convenience in order that we may begin
our campaign in earnest to stabilize wages and
prices

CIO leaders regret the decision of the
Board of Elections TO discontinue the Mon
day night registrations, although they
understand the boards position and do not
blame il for eliminating the accommoda-
tiOn.
Only 2S6 persons have taken advantage
of the Monday evening registration hours,
which is somewhat of a commentary in
view of the passage of the Smith Con-
nally anti-strike bill, and the assured de-
feat Of subsidy payments to finance price
roll-backs.
We do not pretend to be able to under
stand why more people did not register
during the past four weeks; We only hope
that registrations will continue and will
increase as election nears, and that the
workers will realize the Importance of
maintaining their right to vote in elections
which are Of vital concern TO them.

Congress on Vacation

Several congressman have expressed
the view that the contemplated two-month
congressional vacation is not to he con-
strued as an attempt to injure the Presi-
dent.
We can imagine Mr.. ROOsevelts re-
action. In fact, his reaction is probably the
same as ours.
So far as we are concerned, congress
can take vacation until the next election
and never be missed They have already
done enough damage to last for many
months, and can begin the 1914 congress
sional campaign right now.
