The second issue of the Office of
War Information's overseas maga-
zine Victory appeared today and
simultaneously it was disclosed that
the first issue of the tiny, one-ounce
propaganda magazine U. S. A. was
off the press.
U. S. A. is printed on lightweight
paper and is much smaller than the
ordinary pocket-size digest maga-
zine, to save cargo space in shipment
overseas. Nevertheless, its 64 pages
contain condensations of 10 articles
digested from regular American
magazines, condensation of Robert
Trumbull's book, The Raft" and a
16-page picture section of this
country at war.
Like Victory, U. S. A. is printed in
about a dozen foreign languages to
compete with Axis periodicals in
neutral nations and to tell this
countrys story to the Allies.
The first issue of Victory was crit

Murray Denounces
Failure 10 Uphold
Sterilization Policy
Call for CIO Session
Hits Price Concessions -,
Job-Freeze Order
BY the Associated Press.


President Philip Murray today
called an extraordinary meeting of
the CIO executive board for May
IA with the declaration that there
has been "a complete failure" on
the part of Government agencies
and Congress to carry out the sta
bilization policy enunciated by Pres
ident Roosevelt.
His call for the meeting in Cleve-
land said Sterilization Director
James F. Byrnes, OPA Admins
traitor Prentiss Brown and Food
Administrator Chester c. Davis were
responsible for repeated concessions
to certain elements by further in
creases in prices" for the refusal of
the War Labor Board to adjust wage
inequalities and for arbitrary
freezing of men to jobs without re-
lationship to needs of war produc-
tion.
Calls Morale Imperiled.
Further, these administrative
agencies in seeking to hide their
own failures issue arbitrary direc-
tives against labor which can only
result in undermining the morale
and efficiency of workers with a
devastating impact upon war pro-
duction," the call continued.
Congress has also demonstrated
complete disregard for the war
effort by rejecting President Roose-
velt's proposal for incentive pay
ments to farmers to increase food
production, denying appropriations
to the Farm Security Administra-
iton to thwart the effort of small
farmers and repeating President
Roosevelt's limitation upon net an
nual salaries, after taxes, to $25 900.
Wants Plan Carried Out.
"A grave responsibility is thereby
imposed upon the CIO to mobilize
its membership and the entire Ma
ton to either carry out the directive
of President Roosevelt's executive
order to roll back prices to the Sep
tember IS, 1912, level, or make the
necessary wage adjustments to meet
the increased cost of living and to
stop and change the present pol
icies of the administrative agencies
and Congress. which can only result
in inviting initiation and undermine

N. M. u. Gun Crews

Some amazing stories have come out OF
Washington from time to time, but none
more astounding than the one report
ing that the Maritime Commission Is
training merchant seamen to serve as
members of gun crews. True, Joseph
Curran, proc Communist Aead>of the sea-
mems union, had proposed that his men
be substituted for Navy crews on the
anti-aircraft, anti-sumbarine guns. But
it takes two to make bargain, and how
could one have guessed that the MARI
time Commission would have given a
second thought to such an idea? 1t Is
not necessary to emphasize the Com
munist angle to find ample grounds on
which to condemn such an experiment..
Most merchant Seamen are neither Com
munists nor proc Communists, though
their leadership followed the Moscow line
as faithfully when it was pro-Nazi as
they do now that it is anti-Nazi.
Suppose for the sake of argument,
without conceding, that men whose liveli-
hoods depend entirely upon the whim OF
pro-C Communist leaders can be trusted
through thick and thin at such vital
posts as the defense guns on merchant
vessels. Why, for the negative reason
that they aren't potential enemies, should
we substitute them for trained Navy per-
sonnet? Why should we put at the guns
where the highest discipline is essential,
men who are not subject to the same
code that governs Navy men? Why
when the Maritime Commission is plead
ing for enough volunteers to man our
expanding cargo-transport fleet, should
we divert men from that service to DO
what the Navy has the draft power to
provide men to do?
BY what logic do we propose to mlngle
civilian sailors, whose minimum at-Sea
pay scale starts at $185 month plus
$4,000 free insurance, with Navy sailors
whose pay begins at $50 month and no
free insurance?
