SOCIALIST CANDIDATE
JAILED 2 YEARS ON
DRAFT CHARGE

Kansas City, Kans. (ILNS).-Ar-
thur Goodwin Billings, 33, Socialist
party candidate for Senator from
Kansas and former professor of eco
nomics at the University Of Texas,
has been sentenced to years in pri-
son for failing to register and refus-
ing to submit to induction in the arm
ed forces. He pleaded guilty.
The 2-year sentence was imposed
on Billings, despite the fact he had
been held in Fort Leavenworth dis
ciplinary barracks for 21 months pend
ing hearing of his case before the
Supreme Court. The court upheld his
contention that he should have been
tried as civilian rather than a SOL
dier inasmuch as he had not yet
taken the oath.
After Billings had pleaded guilty,
Judge J. Foster Syms asked him if
he would go into Army now.
mo sir: under no circumstances"
Billings replied.
"Then you will serve 2 more years
in prison." the judge said.

ALIEN SHIP JUMPERS
MUST TAKE SEA JOBS
OR FACE DEPORTATION

Washington, D. c. (ILNS). Alien
seamen who deserted Allied mer-
chant ships at American ports to seek
shore jobs are being arrested by the
U. s. immigration and Naturalization
Service and have the choice of re-
turning to ships of their own nation
ality or facing deportation proceed
ings.
About 5000 alien seamen, accord
ing to War Shipping Administration
estimates, have Jumped ship" since
the beginning of the war, and most
OF them have found industrial jobs.
In cases where alien seamen have
married American citizens and ac-
quired homes and children, VISA has
made special arrangements to provide
for the mems families so that they
may return to vessels of their ma
tionality for which crews are urgent
ly needed.

Log of the Trip
The AFL group started out from
Washington aboard Navy bus, usu-
ally used to transport inductees, at
P. M. for the amphibious base at Solo
mons Island in the Chesapeake. After
dinner, the group was conducted
through various schools where crews
and officers Of landing craft are given
a ten-week course before qualifying
for active service.
In the recreation hall, the AFL
guests heard young sailor describe
his experiences as member Of fire.
fighting outfit during the invasion of
Africa, Sicily and Italy. He told a
narrowing story Of struggling to put
out blaze aboard an ammunition ship
off Sicily. The fight took seventy-two
hours and every moment the members
of the fire-fighting squad had to face
the fact that the whole ship might
blow up. But they saved it. This young
man had been member Of the Inter-
national Association of Fire Fighters
in civilian life and his talk proved es-
pecially interesting to two members
of the AFL party-President Fred
Baer and Secretary Treasurer George
Richardson Of that union.
It was cold and raining when the
group went aboard the Lei No. 398 at
9 P. M. for the overnight trip to Lit
tie Creek, Virginia. However the wat
ers Of the bay remained calm and ev-
eryone slept well. No cases of sea-
sickness were reported.
It was still cold and raining at 5:30
a. m. the next morning when the or
der came to ''hit the deck" After q
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1944-10-20

hurried breakfast, the group put on
foul weather gear provided by the
skipper of the ship and started out
on an inspection tour of Camp Brad
ford, eight miles away, where the
Navy trains men for LISTS Landing
Ship, Tank.
Fortunately, the rain lifted soon al
though the skies remained cloudy dur-
ing the entire day. The first stop was
at a night vision school where the
sailors are taught how to keep alert
on watch and how to detect even the
shadows Of ships on the horizon.

FACING

With PHILIP PEARL

Braving stormy weather and in
clement skies, more than score of
AFL Representatives became "ship-
mates" of the U. S. Navy last week
aboard an Lei Landing Craft, Infan-
try) which cruises up and down Ches-
apeake Bay on an inspection trip of
three amphibious training bases.
The tour was undertaken by invi-
tation Of the Incentive Division of the
Navy to the American Federation of
Labor. One of the AFL guests, John
E. Rooney, President of the Operative
Plasterers' International Association,
came all the way from Cleveland to
get aboard
On the ship, the AFL representa-
tives lived the life of Navy personnel,
eating the same G. I. rations and
sleeping in the same hunks regularly
assigned to troops aboard landing
craft.
AS one who participated, we can
truthfully report that the AFL group
enjoyed every minute Of the trip even
getting up at $3.50 a. m. But perhaps
the most popular feature of the ex-
cursion was the opportunity to fire
the ships 20 millimeter anti-aircraft
guns at target. The best shots were

PRIEST CHALLENGES
ENEMIES OF LABOR

New York City-Efforts of s.capi-
talists and Communist" propagandists
to create rift between our fighting
men and trade unions were denounced
by Rev. John ]. Monaghan at special
Labor Day mass in ST. Patrick's Ca
thedral.
IN sowing confusion, Father Mon
Afghan said, the "demagogues" hope to
profit, and he added:
The trade unions are the safest
Repositories Of the soldiers faith Of :
better world to work in. Pensions
should not be a substitute for wages
nor are anti-labor business men safe

MEMBERSHIP NEARS
7-MILLION MARK

Washington, D. C.-Membership of
the American Federation of Labor now
stands at the highest point in it's six
ty-four year history, AFL Secretary
Treasurer George Meany announced.
The total dues-paid membership of
the Federation as of August 81, the
close of the AFL's fiscal year, was
6,806,913. This represents a net gain
of 242,772 over the August figure Of
1943, when the total was 6,564,141.
Mr.. Meany emphasized that the
membership figure does not include
more than 100000 AFL members
now serving in the armed forces.
"The rate of increase in member
ship has declined from the 1941-1943
period during which remarkable or
ganization gains were scored as the
scope of war industry was expanded"
Mr.. Meany declared. Nevertheless,
the growth of the Federation has been
steady and gratifying. We hope and
expect that our total membership will
top the seven million mark by the
time our annual convention opens in
New Orleans on November 2O."
Detailed membership figures, Civ
ing the dues-paid totals of each offil-
lated national and international union,
will be included in Mr.. Meany's finan-
cial report to the convention, which is
an official and audited document avail
able to public inspection.

Through the Maze

Emerging from the thick gloom Of
this room, the labor representatives
were put through a maze filled with
many devices designed to trip up and
confound the unwary. A dim light was
provided for the guests but the sail
ors have to learn to negotiate this OBJ
stacle course in pitch dark.
The next stop was a TYPICAL class
room where Navy officer explained
with the aid Of ship models how an
amphibious invasion attack on a beach
is organized and operated.

Returning to Little Creek, the party
was conducted aboard an LIST and an
Ism Landing Ship, Medium). Some
of the oldsters on the trip were puff
fling bit from climbing up steep ship
ladders when they got back to dry
land.
Our Lei looked and felt like home
when we went oboard at II A. M. for
the return trip. After hearty lunch
con, the guests took part in various
deck activities eliminating in shoot
ing at floating target 400 yards off.
When the target was hauled back on
board, it was riddled with holes.
AS a final surprise, the Lei ran
right up on the shore at Cove Point,
Md. threw over it's landing ramps and
the guests walked dryshod to the
beach where Navy bus was awaiting
for the ride back to Washington. Be-
fore departing, the AFL representa-
tives joined in rousing cheer for the
skipper, the crew and Lieut.. Siefert
who conducted the trip for the Inven-
tive Division.
Among those not previously men,
toned who made the trip were Presi-
dent William G. Doherty, Of the Ma
tional Letter Carriers Association;

head and in the Casino sector.
CA German radio commentator
heard by the United Press in New
York reported that the 5th Army
was shifting troops and equipment
to the Anzio beachhead in great
numbers and predicted that major
Allied attack would be launched on
that front within the next few days.
("The massing of troops and war
material in the Anzio beachhead
point to the fact that the Anglo
Americans intend to transform the
hitherto isolated beachhead into
front No. l." the commentator said.
"a new breakthrough attempt from
the Anzio beachhead toward the
east, and at the same time in the
direction of Rome, is expected.")
Small Seal eAttacks
German infantrymen attempted
two small-scale attacks against
American and British positions
southwest of Cisterna yesterday, but
both were repulsed by artillery and
rifle fire. A Nazi tank also was
knocked out by anti-tank fire in the
area south of Aprilia.
On the main Fifth Army front,
Allied artillery laid down heavy
barrage on German tanks hidden
in the rubble near the continental
Hotel In Casino, while Nazi gun
ners raked Allied positions inside
the town with shellfire and mortars.
German snipers were reported ac-
tive in and around the town
throughout the day, and one Nazi
patrol thrust across the Rapido
river south of Casino, only to run
into heavy shellf1re that drove 1t
back to the west bank.
Bitter skirmishing and artillery
exchanges also occurred in the hills
north of Casino, but only minor
patrol clashes were reported in the
lower Garigliano Valley to the west.
Similar Conditions
Similar conditions prevailed on
the British 9Th Army front along
the Adriatic.
Large formations Of American
Flying Fortresses and Liberators

southeast of Imphal The commu-
nique said British troops had gone
into action against the enemy in
that sector and were attacking jap
anese units entrenched on a COM
manding hill position.
At the southern end of the in
vasion line, strong japanese forces
were repulsed with heavy losses in
an attempt to drive up the Tiddim-
Imphal road. 1t was indicated that
the Japanese in this area still were
being contained about IS miles
short of the Indo-Burna border,
although a number of raiding par
ties were reported stabbing at Brit
ish rear positions along the high
way, possibly inside India.
Meanwhile, Lt.-Gen. Joseph W.
Stilwell's American-trained Chinese
forces continued their steady prog
ress southwark through the Mo-
gazing valley in fighting described
by American liaison officers as the
fiercest of the Burma campaign.
While Stilwens main force bat
tered at Japanese strongpoints near
the northern entrance of the Mo-
gazing valley, other Chinest vet
eranst swung wide behind the en-
envy lines to seize the village of Le-
ban, IA miles inside the valley,
trapping two enemy battalions-
possibly 1000 or more men.
The surprise thrust placed the
Chinese within 30 miles of Kamaing
and only SO miles from the inpor-
tant railhead of Mogaung. Observ-
ers believed part of the trapped
Japanese force might be able to es-
cape through the jungles, but it wos
believed that they would be unable
to salvage their MISUNDERSTANDING
number of big 5O-minimeter
HoWitzers.
Allied air-borne troops who cut
the main Mandalay- Myitkyina rail-
way in central Burma last week
were disclosed to have attacked and
damaged Japanese headquarters

gaung.

The plan was a modified form Of a
