FOR TEXTILE WORKERS

Washington, ID. G. GLNS). - The
War Production is reported studying
orders which would require textile
mills to maintain Il mandatory 4S-hOur
week for all employees.
A decline in textile output since the
mid-1942 peak has been Il source of
concern to WLB for some time The
present annual production rate is
/, 1,5OO,OO0,OO0 yards less than the 1912
high point.
Military demand has not decreased
and serious civilian shortages in some
textile categories have been reported.
Recent surveys Indicate an esti-
mated shortage of $1,000 to 10000
workers in the textile industry if pro-
duction is to be increased to meet
minimum needs. Institution of Il man
datory 4S-hour week in the industry
would in part make up for the labor
shortages, some WPB officials believe
The surveys showed that the aver
age work in the textile industry is +
hours, though some mills are operat-
ing 4S-hour schedules.

service legislation has been i'm effect.
1. The government should adopt Il
clear and understandable labor rela
tiOnS policy for the duration, written
into law and administered by a single
central agency, instead of the multiple
bureaus now handling labor matters.
The report cites figures to show the
huge production of war material and
says manpower shortages are still Il
problem. Blame for this is laid at the
door of industry, which, the report
says. has boarded labor reserves.
Recognition must be given to the
difficulty of labor'S present position, >
the report adds, Its traditional aims,
such as higher wages, better working
conditions and shorter hours. run
counter to war needs, and for the most
part labor has given up voluntarily its
principal weapons for enforcing its
rights Many critics of labor have not
done as much.'
The report also points TO huge
profits industry has been collecting
and says that some war contractors
had profits before taxes 100 times
their pre-war levels.

Have We Kept

BY RUTH TAYLOR

In this war, as in all theological con
ficts, each participant has talked
much of its past Each nation has
boasted of its culture and of the high

has Dragged of the accomplishments
of its forebearerS. But no one seems
to have remembered that the culture
of each, the civilization of each. is no
greater than that displayed by the
generation coming up.
If we of the present generation &c
not reteach the lessons of the past, so
that the next generation may profit
by them: if we do not add to the cul-
ture we have received so that thi
coming generation can in turn build on
it, then of what avail is the past?
No nation, no group is entitled to be
