STANDARD FOX VOTING
II know that In many places the
Negroes outnumber the white peo-
pie and that is one explanation for
not giving them the right to vote.
There can be and should be a
standard of literacy and education
required for voting, ard I think
you will find that the Negroes will
not vote as a group any more than
other minority groups do in this
country.
Perhaps one of the solutions
will be to move the Negroes into
places where there are only a few
and thus prevent the lack of bal
ance.
Mrs. Roosevelt pointed out that
this idea had been suggested, but
had been bitterly opposed by some
southern states
She said that as she had lived
in Georgia and Florida for periods
of time. she felt that she could
understand the south's problem.

''These are steps in the right direc-
ton toward fulfilling our obligations
toward the men who are risking their
lives to defend US and our freedom.
Another step which | feel that every
American Federation of Labor union
should take is to make it possible for
servicemen, when they return home
after the war is won, to become men,
bers of our unions without being re-
quired to pay the regular initiation
fee. In this way we can assure the
servicemen that their opportunities to
obtain jobs when the war ends are
not going to be adversely affected by
their service in the armed forces.
"By such action organized labor can
cement better relations between the
soldiers of production and the fight
ing soldiers who, together, constitute
an unbeatable team in the winning of
the war and in the winning Of the
peace"

PLANE OUTPUT AGAIN
HITS new PEAK

Washington, D. C.-Aircraft pro-
duction in March set an all-time
monthly record both in weight and
number of planes, G. E. Wilson, chair
man of the Aircraft Production Board,
announced. For the first time number
of planes turned out in month ex-
ceeded the 5000 mark, with total of
9,118 planes of all types. Also for the
first time production topped the 100,-
100000 pound mark in terms of air
frame weight. The March total of
103 100000 pounds was more than
nine per cent above February, the
previous high.
Wilson congratulated aircra t
workers for producing more bombers,
more fighters, and more transports in
March than in any previous month. He
said all companies had made up their
production schedules and some had, in
notable instances, exceeded them on
strategically required ships.
"In the case of the four motor
bombers alone, which is, of course,
one of the most important items in
the whole list, the production was ac-
tually exceeded from the scheduled
amounts by approximately five per
cent" he said "The whole production
schedule for the month was exceeded
by approximately one and half per
cent" This, he explained, was in num-
bers of planes.
Output per man, Wilson pointed out,
is substantially more now than in the
beginning of the aircraft production.
Improved production rates he attri-
buted to tn efact that aircraft COM
panies are becoming more and more
familiar with the types of planes they
are manufacturing and are getting
the benefit of the results of the pro-
gram of standardization followed for
a long period.
In line with recent strategic empha-
sis, Wilson pointed out, 86.5 per cent
of the total number of aircraft pro-
duced were tactical types, represent
ing bombers, fighters and transports.
1t was not anticipated, he said, that
the March record would be matched
in April, chiefly because of almost
total discontinuance in production of
certain types of planes, particularly
trainer-types. Total airframe weight
planned for the April production
schedule would, however, be as high
as that for March.
One of the limiting production fac
tors in the months ahead is the de-
cision of the military authorities to
change aircraft models. Thus the Boe-
ing Aircraft Company, manned by
AFL workers., announced that several
| of it's plants would be converted from
Flying Fortress production to the new,
semi-secret super-Fortress.

New York City.-The American
Federation of Labor made public it's
postwar program program de-
signed to Danish war forever, to pro-
mote world prosperity and social jus
tice, to perpetuate the Four Freedoms
and to safeguard American democracy
by postwar measures fair to every
citizen.
The detailed and specific report,
drafted by the AFL Post War Com
mittee and approved by special
committee of the Executive Council,
was released on the eve of dramatic
National Postwar Forum here under
AFL auspices with leaders in the
Government, industry, agriculture and
education participating.
First and foremost, the epochal re-
port declared categorically that "War
is the enemy" 1t said
| "The American Federation of Labor
believes that war among the nations
waged by modern engines of death
and destruction is the supreme enemy
of the well-being of the common peo-
pie of the world. We recognize that
our own movement of organized labor
"a movement which is the product
of the long struggle of workers for
economic and social democracy-has
no future or promise in world liv-
ing under the threat and burden OF
the war-system. We consider that the
elimination Of war as an instrument
of national policy is a condition essen
tial to the perpetuation and the fur
ther development of our democratic
way of life"
Lasting peace must rest on social
justice accorded equally to all peoples
the report emphasized The only safe
ty from war, it continued, is through
tt e international organization Of
peace. Victory in this war is not
enough. The United Nations must be
prepared to use whatever means are
necessary-including policing and the
use of armed forces-to prevent the
outbreak of future wars, the report
held.
The program for the establishment
of lasting peace need not involve thu
creation of world government, tn,
report said, but requires the accept
ance of definite obligations by the ma
tions of the world to work together
under agreed conditions and within
limits set by them. The basic princi
J Piles should be those outlined in th
Atlantic Charter and other pronounce
ments of the United Nations, the re
port recommended.
Specific steps should now be takel
to insure the speedy realization O
plans for the prevention of war as Sc
forth in the Four Nation declaration
and the Connally Resolution on post
war policy adopted by the U. S. Sen
ate, the AFL urged. The report recon
