The Proposed Labor Draft

is now being put into military
service.
The American people know very
well that there is not only another
answer but a BETTER answer.
That answer is to have the Amer.
lean war production front get de-
terminedly AT the vital job of turn
ing out munitions and implements
of war and STAYING everlastingly
at it.
None of the strikes in lUor indus
tries, or in any industries eUen re-
moteiy affecting rUar production, are
justifuble or excusoble.
It is conceivable that workers in
war industries may indeed have
grievances and inequities.
But the very last thing these
workers should do as remedy is to
WALK OFF THE JOB.
THE federal government has set
l. up plenty of machinery for the
remedy of labor management griev-
ances and adjustment OF lnequltleS.
Let war workers with grievances
take them to these government
agencies, and in the meantime STAY
ON THE JOB.
Let the war workers remember
that if what Gen. Somervell cites as
the ultimate answer comes to pass
a program of universal labor con-
scription-they won't be walking out
on their vital jobs any more, what
ever their personal desires or reasons
in the matter might be.
Gen. Somervell is probably right
that if the American nation cannot
devise any OTHER method of sup
plying our fighting men-who are
largely conscripted for military serv-
ice-it will have to take ultimate
recourse to labor CONSUMPTION.

The news is good so you can

wrong-dead wrong. Now, more
than any other time. is when
you need to donate blood and

The reason is. when the news
is good and we're winning the
war, it's then that you've GOT
TO give blood and buy bonds
because we're going to lose
blood with each inch Of ground
we get. and we're using more

THE war manpower situation in
i the United States has apparently
fallen into such tangle of confusion
and cross purposes that only drastic
measures will restore a rate of pro-
duction sufficient to sustain the war
effort.
1t. Gen. Somervell, commanding
general of the U. S. Army service
forces, says that munitions and the
implements of war are not being
produced in our factories as fast as
they are being used up on the battle
fields.
On the other hand, we are haDing
a continuous succession of strikes or
other Instructions and Interruptions
of war production in these Uery in
dustries.
This simply does not MAKE
SENSE.
CEN. SOMERVELL says we are
" short at least three hundred
thousand workers in war industries
in the critical category-the kind in
which curtailment of production
means an actual lack of sufficient
fighting material at the front.
If this is true-and all evidence
from the combat theaters supports it
we are not only PROLONGING
the war unnecessarily and with
greater loss of American lives as the
harsh penalty, but we are actually
running unnecessary risk of
LOSING the war.
Gen. Somervell says that if the
American nation is unable to find
any OTHER answer to this problem
it will have to undertake program
of universal service which, more
bluntly, would be LABOR DRAFT

ton under compulsion exactly as it

DERHAPS l am particularly aware
L of this because, as an attorney
specializing in juvenile court cases, /
daily see young boys and girls be-
wilderedly enmeshed with the law
because they actually did not realize
when they committed the acts
which were responsible for their
arrest that they were breaking the
law.

Often adults who Contribute do
so through sheer lack of knowledge.
Further, there is wide spre a d
ignorance of the penalties and con-
sequences involved. And there is
decided proneness on the part of
offenders and their parents to believe
that the authorities who merely are
carrying out their Offices according
to law, are, instead, giving vent to
personal prejudice.
Many cry out, and thoroughly be-
=heve, that they are being picked

The answer is: EDUCATION.
Education in understanding of
the law has been sadly neglected in
the United States.

need.
The child, even after he has come
in contact with the law, remains in
ignorance of it, learning by trial and
error, by guess, and by curbstone
hearSay.
Some years ago the California
state bar decided to discard the old
axiom, Ignorance Of the law excuses
-nouone,3 lin its application to chill
dren, and substituted the more en-
Gghtened phrase that ito know the
law is to respect It,"
The legal profession thus under
took the responsibility of bringing
the law to the child instead of the
child to the law.
THE bar made available to prin-
i cipals of the public school sys-
tenn attorney speakers particularly
qualified to address boys and girls on
their responsibilities and rights
under the law.
This was based on premise that
just as doctors and dentists spread
information throughout the schools
in the sphere of preventive medicine,
thus terrifying youth against disease,
so is it the lawyers responsibility, as
his particular contribution to society,
to prevent crime by fortifying youth
against it with a program Of en-
lightenment about the law.
However, this service has not
been made use of to even fraction
of the extent it has deserved.
Further, in my opinion, a simple
course in the laws affecting minors
is an absolutely ESSENTIAL part of
the school curricula.
IF youth has right to learn
reading, writing, and arithmetic, and
other subjects as part of his equip
ment with which to face the world,
if youth is to be taught health rules
and an appreciation of the arts as
part of his life equipment-then cer--
tainly youth has right to a simple
knowledge of the law as it affects
him.
He has right to know what he
may or may not do under the law.
And not only should this be
part Of the curriculum for youth, but
every adult school should have at
least one course for the enlighten-
ment Of adults as to the laws which
affect their children.

JUVENILE delinquency is term
y on every ones lips these days.
Every one seems to have his
theory as to its causes, prevention,
and cure.
Blamed most often are the broken
home, poor environment, parental
neglect, wrong companionship, lack
of proper housing, inadequate recre-
ational facilities, absence of religious
and moral training, maladjustment
in school, and physical and mental
handicaps.
1t is true that all these factors
are very much to blame.
In my opinion, however, one of
the more serious causes responsible
for the breaking of the law by
minors which thus far has received
very little attention is IGNORANCE
OF THE LAW-ignorance of the
law as it affects minors.
BY this, | do not mean ignorance
of the law on the part of minors
alone, BUT ON THE PART OF
ADULTS, PARENTS, TEACHERS,
THE COMMUNITY AT LARGE.

favor the suggestion. of Miss

I doubt il any one would
question that promiscuous pub

lax morals. but this might we'll
be more than Offset by the re-
suits Of another factor men,
toned in your editorial, that
women are more apt to drink
prudently in the presence Of
men than IL they are alone.
Based on Miss Hutzels ex-
perience with the baser element
Of society she has raised a good
question. The question is, do
we want more uninhibited
drinking and more DRINKS per
square foot at the cost of try
ing TO save some OF the way
ward element?
Segregation doesn't get to the
root of the problem.
You couldn't temper the banal
characteristics of some people
if.you confined their drinking TO
church socials.
And why should we have dou-
bic standards, one for men and
one for women? Why shouldn't
women be allowed the same
privileges as men?
This idea, besides being an
other step towards regimenta-
ton. is bigoted.
There are steps our law en-

which are far less altruistic.
