BACK THE ATTACK

THE FOURTH WAR LOAN DRIVE opened
this week The u. s. Treasury announces
that il must raise II billion dollars through War
Bond sales.
Organized labor from the first has given its
wholchearted support to War Bond campaigns.
Our members from the beginning have pledged
themselves to invest q portion Oi their earnings
in War Bonds. They have done a fine job OF
keeping up that buying campaign.
The Fourth War Loan Drive is not aimed at
disturbing those purchases nor to Increase the
percentage of such investments. This drive rs
aimed at surplus funds, cash which is not at
work, money which cannot purchase .unaValI-
able goods. Money which you VIII want liquld
when the war is over and production of con
sumer goods is resumed
This drive will concern itself with individuals
and what they can Scrape together for extra
bond during the drive and with the surplus
funds and reserves of corporations and unions.
It's up to us--We, the People! We furnish
the manpOwer for the lighting fronts. We fur
niSh the weapons OF war. We are asked to
furnish a little of the money to make the
weapons OF war.
Not through donations! Not through per
S0nal Sacriiice No, by appeal to be thrifty,
to provide Il cushion Of savings for the postwar
period 90 make the safest investment in the
world which yields % per cent return in 10
years.
Secretary Morgenthau is really saying -
turn your idle dollars into fighting dollars. The
local unions OF the National Brotherhood Of
Operative POttcrS should rc-eXamine their re-
serves for the purpose of War Bond purchases.
Every member Of the Brotherhood should check
their personal reserves for reinvcStment pur
poses. There is only one guide, your own con
science.
General Dwight ID. Eisenhower, who will
lead the invasion Of Western Europe, stated on
December 27 that the war can be won in 1914.
"Thc only thing needed is for every man and
woman. all the way from the front line to the
remotest hamlet, to do his or her full duty"
he said.
DO YOUR DUTY. BUY THAT EXTRA
BOND. BACK TIE ATTACK.

SOMETHING is WRONG

SUNDAY NIGHT radio guy says "A reporters
- report to the nation" which might be some
thing like this:
Residents Of the District of Columbia since
1878 have been governed entirely and absolutely
by committees of the Congress- of the United
States. About the same situation if your town
was governed by men elected from the other AZ
states.
Sen. Pat McCaren, Of Nevada, thinks citizens
Of the District should have some degree of self
government and has introduced bill for that
purpose but ne seems to believe said citizens are
not sufficiently interested in the matter.
He ovcrlooks the fact that other similar bills
have been paladed in Congress in the past 40
years, with acton-and none eXpected-and
District citizens perhaps feel ''Why get excited
when it don't mean anythng?"
The thing to keep in mind, it seems to us, is
that in Amclica-the home of the tree-our gov
omment is based on self government, and that if
any segment Of our population has not that priv
ilege something is ScreWY.
And that is all from Washington at this time,
as another radio guy says.

LIFE WITH UNCLE

HEItt"S some more about that "hgh authority
Many officials Of the Army, Navy and Marine
Corps, as we'll rs production experts in other wal
agencies, have expressed their pleasure at the all
out effort of labor and especially organized labor
in producing War materials.
AS a matter Of fact so much has been pro
duced that some plants have been closing down
leaving their workers unemployed.
But over the last weekend an unnamed Off
Cial, now said to be Gen George Marshall, made q
crack not complimentary to labor, and, boy, oh
boy
1t was Just what the daily papers and radio
commentators had been waiting for 1t was right
up their alley, and they went to town.
The press services kept the wires hot, and the
country Just about exploded. Even an anonymous
dig AT organized labor was good enough to bring
out the big type.
It's about washed out now, but we're still
wondering how the high source" knows so well
and so quickly what is pleasing to Adolf and Herr
mann. He must have private line.

Stain.
1t was believed that the United
States and Britain would approve
any agreement reached between
Poland and the Soviet Union on
boundaries between those two ad-
joining countries but that they
were conce ned about Russian pro-
posals that Poland be given areas
in Germany to compensate for Rus
sian demands for the Polish Ukraine
and White Russia.
This country and Britain were
said to feel that the western boun-
daries of Poland were something
to be decided at the peace confer
ence and not in advance OF the
conclusion of hostilities.
Some sources expressed the opin-
ion that Russia's demands on Po-
land might well prove a test OF
United Nations solidarity In adj

Legally, officials here felt Rus
sia might have a claim TO the areas
involved. The Curzon line was es-
tablished after World War l by a

Poles moved into the Ukraine and

The shattering bombardment of
Brunswick in a follow through of
the American attack on the same
target Tuesday, kindled fires Wis
sible $50 miles through dense clouds
which sent up a column of smoke
more than three miles high.
FEINT ADDS DAMAGE
Light Mosquito bombers struck
at Berlin and Magdeburg in diver

man fighter strength, and no de-
fense planes arrived over Bruns-
wick during the attack.
The British raiding fleet, how
ever, ran into stiff fighter opposi-
ton on the way in, man. of the
German planes launching rockets
in a frantic effort to break up
the RAF formations.
Brunswick was covered by broken
clouds, and pathfinders ringed the
target area with incendiary mark
ers before the bombardment be-
gan. The first bombs crashed on the
city at ITO pm, unusually early,
in order that the raiders could be
we'll on the way home before the

BLAST ENTIRE CITY
Hundreds of the RATS four-en-
gined heayyweights blasted and
scared Brunswick from end to end
in an assault obviously designed to
erase the city of some 100000 per-
sons and its Messerschmitt aircraft
plant.
While American bombers concen-
trated their entire weight of bombs
on the Messerschmitt factory and
probably destroyed all but one plan.
in their record precision attack
Tuesday, the British night raiders
sought to blot ont Brunswick,
housing, communications, ware
houses, and subsidiary industries,
as well as to complete the destruc-
ton of the plane works.
The big night bombers again

miles to the west, while Mosquitoes
went on to hit the Nazi capital and
Magdeburg, 80 miles southwest of

Thirty-eight bombers were lost

Sixty American bombers were lost
