Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1944-10-30

THE political poster printed above this
i editorial is one Of many circulated
throughout the country by the Red radi-
cal Political Action Committee of the
CIO.
1t urges that 'for full employment
after the war" American workers should
register and vote.
Since the Political Action Committee
is. supporting the fourth term campaign
Of President Roosevelt, it implies that in
order to have 'full employment" after
the war, the workers should vote for
Roosevelt.
But what is a better gauge of the
ability of the Roosevelt administration
to provide full employment after the war
than its failure to provide adequate en-
ployment BEFORE the war?
TN HIS speech Of Sept. % before the
l. Transfers Union, President Roosevelt
said he "got quite laugh" out Of the
paragraph in the Republican platform
referring to the problems of labor and
employment -
American workers see NOTHING TO
LAUGH ABOUT in the long period of
unemployment that prevailed under the
Roosevelt administration until the war
brought an end to it.
American workers remember that
period as the ROOSEVELT DEPRES-
SION.
In fact, one American worker-Mr
Job w. Brinton Of San Francisco, a men,
Der of the international Machinists
Union-has written a searching and
challenging pamphlet about it under the
title:
WAS it Iaughable? (the Roosevelt
Depression.)"
TN THE year 1889, says the pamphlet,
1 these were the leading headlines in
American newspapers:
Dead From Starvation" "COl-
lapses From Lack of Food" Under
Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1944-10-30

of hunger and want in its San Francisco
News in 1899:
"A 44-year-Old mother and two chill
dren were found yesterday searching in
the Albany garbage dump, gnawing
hungriIy on anything they could find"
"The following is United Press re-
port from Cleveland in 1889:
"'SOcial workers barred the doors
against thousands of relief clients clamOr-
ing for food today"
"The San Francisco Chronicle gives
additional evidence . from its news
columns in 1899:
"'AlOng Market street walked pretty
girl yesterday :. without sound this
slender girl slid TO the sidewalk there
was nothing the matter with her except
something the doctor put down in the
books as maInutrition.'
HTHE International News Service ..
Il tells of mother killing her six
children in 1899, quoting her:
81 have suffered lot and do not
want my children to suffer with me any
longer"
In summary, says the pamphlet:
lie AHeICdH TcueIdilOl OI LdOI
in 1886, after Roosevelt had been in office
four years, put unemployment at nine
million.
-Four years later, in 1910, when
Roosevelt had been president eight years,
the American Federation of Labor put
employment at ten million.
"And the president of the Go, in
1910, at the national capital said that :. d.
the number one problem of America is
still the problem of nine to ten million
men and women who are still without
Jobs"
This is the kind of full employment"
Roosevelt GAVE us before the war.
Is it the kind of "full employment"
the American people want him to be in
a position to give them AGAIN after.

Am HrOnic Coincidence
VICE PRESIDENT WALLACE

VICE PRESIDENT WALLACE
' came to Detroit last week
heralded as Americas No. l friend
of the working man.
His speech at Olympia Friday
night had been arranged and spon-
sored by r. J. Thomas and other
executives of the JAW CLIO. Thus it
is fair to assume that the Olympia
audience was composed largely of
working men and women.
MI. Wallace was in his usual
widely touted role as the patron saint
of American labor. He praised De
troit factory workers fulsomely,
which was understandable and fair
enough.
But, as their true and disinter-
ested friend, he would have been
more convincing had he besought
them even mildly, to cut out strikes
and work stoppages during the re-
mainder of the war.
VICE PRESIDENT WALLACE
' knows Detroit is the JAW CLIO
capital of the nation. He knows how
woefully our war production has
been hampered and retarded by
strikes in vital war plants.
He must know that most of these
strikes have been in direct defiance
of War Labor Board orders and War
Labor Board rules which were APP
proved by himself and President
Roosevelt
Why did he not mention these
Crippling strikes Friday night?
Why did he not admonish Detroit
workers TO renounce them2

VICTORY GARDENS.

VICTORY GARDENS. T h e
Hamilton Victory Garden Committee
was instrumental in arranging f O r
over 200 Victory Gardens. The late
ness of spring caused many persons
to give up their hopes for garden.
Many people are still planting and
they may be happy they had garden.
The committee headed by Ernest Nell
son deserves a lot of credit for it's un-
firing efforts.
FARM LABOR NEEDED. :. Last
year many industries and other places
of business assisted materially in aid
ing the farmers by advising their en-
ployees that the farmers needed addi-
tional help. The need is great again
this year and the Chamber has been
asked to request the employers to
call this need to the attention of their
employees who might be interested in
helping out when they are not working
at their regular jobs. The County
Agricultural Agents office will serve
as the clearinghouse.

WAR CHEST FUND

Bob Hope, who travelled more than
$4,000 miles to entertain service men
and women and who has made exten-
sive tours in the combat zones for
USO-Camp Shows, will turn over all
royalties from the sale Of his forth
coming book, 81 Never Left Home, y
to the National War Fund, Winthrop
w. Aldrich, President of the Fund,
announced today.
The National War Fund, which sup
ported by 10000 Community War
Funds throughout the country, fl
nances USO and USO-Camp Shows,
War Prisoners Aid, United Seamens'
Service, and sixteen other agencies
working for assistance to our Allies.
The National War Fund is very
grateful to Mr.. Hope for his generous
transfer of royalties to the fund, Mr..
Aldrich said, particularly SO because
this comes on top of the great contri-
buttons he has made to the work of
USO-Camp Shows by his tours to the
battle areas to entertain our men and
women there.
Mr.. Aldrich also stated that Mr..
Hope expresses through his book an
appeal to the people of this nation,
which is in line with the appeal being
made for the National War Fund on
behalf of it's nineteen member war re-
lated agencies.

Excessive cultivation burns up or

Ohio farmers who do not receive 27
cents or more for nest-run eggs should
contact dealers who hold government
buying certificates.
Sales quotas for dairy products in
Ohio cities with more than $4,000 pop
ulation have been increased for the
month of June, and this increase may
help the discouraging marketing sit
uation which developed in late May.
All restrictions on the farm slaugh-
ter Of any kind of livestock have been
removed and no slaughter permits now
are required. If farmers sell meats on
the ration list, the specified points
must be collected for OPA.
The War Production Board has al
located 80 per cent more potash for
fertilizer in the 10-month period end
ing April l, 1945, than was available
in those months of 1943-44, but the
increased supply is not expected to
meet all demands for this plant food.
The 10,450 farmers cooperatives
which reported for the commodity
marketing year 1942-43 did gross
business of $3.50, 100000. The organi-
cations which sold farm commodities
reported a business volume of So, 1870,
! 100000 and the cooperatives dealing
in supplies sold $6OO,000,00O worth in
/ the year.
Ohio will get in June, 165 cars OF
oats, nearly 100000 bushels of
wheat, eight cars of peas, and 2,675
tons of oil meals through allotments
of livestock feeds made by federal
agencies. Only 100000 bushels of the
wheat will be sold direct to farmers
and feeders, the rest is available to
| Ohio elevators and to feed mixers ir
this state. The oil meals are sole
through feed dealers but are supposed
to be sold unmixed.
