ILO POINTS THE WAY
By George Meany

international cooperation must work
in the direction of achieving full en-
ployment of the human resources of
all nations at decent wages and under
decent working conditions. A con-
stant war against need and privation
must be waged on an international
basis in order to eliminate the eco
nomic incentive that dictators have
used in the past to induce nations to
seek to acquire the possessions of
other nations by force.
Workers and employers, as well as
government, must have voice in all
discussions leading to a solution of
economic problems that are likely to
cause dissension between nations.
Freedom of expression and assemb-
lage for all peoples everywhere must
be prime objective of all nations
who desire lasting peace.
The International Labor Organiza-
ton, formed after the last war and
still in existence, provides the struc-
ture which can be revitalized and en-
larged to do these things in the in
terest of world peace When the VIC
torious powers sit down to lay the
groundwork for the future, the ideals
and principles of the international
Labor Organization should be en-
bodied in any plans which are for
mulated.

New Brunswick Free OF
AFL Strikes In War Years

Fredericton, N. B. (ILNS).-At the
1914 convention of the New Bruins
wick Federation of Labor, composed
of AFL locals and district councils in
the province, it was stressed that not
one of the international unions in the
province had gone on strike during
the more than 5 years the war has
been in progress. There have been
numerous cessations of work by nom
AFL unions in the province since the
beginning of the war. 1t was re-
ported that 524 new members had
been added to AFL unions in New
Brunswick since the 1943 convention
This was one of the most pleasing
phases of the 26th annual report of
G. R. Melvin, secretary treasurer of
the NBFL the last 26 years.
One Of the resolutions passed ad-
vocated compulsory physical examina-
tions periodically for employees OF
public eating places, the cost to be
borne by the employers. This was ir
keeping with preventive and correc-
tive measures against the spread Of
venereal diseases.

CORNELL'S LABOR SCHOOL

Labor, employers and the public
will undoubtedly watch with interest
the development of the School of In
dustrial and Labor Relations at Cor
nell, the state university of New York
The school is the first of it's kind.
1t is predicted that if the expert
ment meets with its anticipated sue
cess other states, especially the big
industrial ones, will follow New York IS
lead and establish similar schools.
Purpose of the school, as outlined
in the act creating it, is the teaching
of the history of industrial practices
of employers and employees, the his
tory and principles of sound industrial
relations, the rights and obligations
of employers and employees, the de-
velopment of labor law, and all other
phases of employer-employe relations
tending to promote the public inter
est.

COMMENT ON WORLD EVENTS

tration camp. Repeated Imprisonment
in these camps failed to break him.
Leuschner has now been disposed
of by linking him with the generals
plot as one of the staunchest anti
Nazis fighting inside Germany. He
has thus been added to the evergrow
ing list of thousands of anti-Nazis
in Germany who gave their lives for
the defense Of democracy.
The Neue Volkszeitung points to
these names as repudiating the often
repeated and utterly untrue state
ment that there are no democratic
Germans fighting against the Nazis
inside Germany; list that includes
many former Social Democratic men,
bers of the Reichstag and leaders of
the Weimar Republic; DR.. Rudolf Hill
ferding, former finance minister, who
was murdered by the Nazis in Paris
after the fall of France; the leader
of the German miners union, Fritz
Husemann, who was killed in con-
centration camp; Adolf Biedermann,
Reichstag member from Hamburg,
whom the Nazis killed in Germany
throwing him off railroad train;
the Social Democratic leader of the
Nuremberg underground, Johannes
Wild who was decapitated for treason;
| Prussian Reichstag member Ernst
Heilmann, who also was assissinated
in a concentration camp; Reichstag
member from Baden, Ludwig Marum,
who also was killed in concentration
camp; DR.. Rudolf Breitscheld, leader
of the Social Democratic faction of
the Reichstag and delegate of the
Weimar Republic to the League of
Nations.
When Hitler announced recently that
if he were to perish he would let
everybody go with him, he now-the
Neue Volkszeitung says-turned his
wrath against those who were heroic
enough to prepare for the democratic
rebirth of Germany. Hundreds ol
thousands of victims in Germany tes.
tify to the fact that there is another
Germany, whose fight prompted Hit.

and costliest machinery of politica
terror the world has ever seen.

A PLAN FOR
ARMISTICE DAY
(From the New York Times)

(From the New York Times)
In this war there are likely to be
two armistice days, one when the last
German army surrenders and one
when the japanese lay down their
arms. There are two ways to cele-
brate the first of these occasions,
which will be bought, as the second
one will be, by wounds, death and sor-
row.
One way is to riot in the streets,
throwing confetti, breaking windows
and getting drunk. The other way is to
observe few minutes of silence, to
attend meetings in the churches, to
express with dignity and sobriety the
relief we will feel because one costly
phase of the great war is over.
There will be no call for a childish
and barbaric joy. Too many will have
fallen. Too many will still be in dam
ger. The kind of celebration we or our
fathers had in November, 1918, would
be an affront to those who are in deep
grief and those in anxiety for their
loved ones.
A popular emotion cannot be re-
pressed, even though some of it's ex-
pressions may be later repented. 1t
can, however, be diverted into fitting
observances. 1t is not too soon for
public officials, churches, schools and
civic organizations to make plans for
Armistice Day No. /. 1t can be made
a day of commemoration and dedica-
tion if the right leadership is exerted
soon enough.

The fact that there are many anti
Nazi Germans, who will lead in build
ing a new and democratic Germany,
if given an opportunity, is sometimes
almost forgotten or ignored by many
of the experts" now busily engaged
in telling the world what should be
done with Germany after the war.
The Neue Volszeitung of New York,
Oldest anti-Nazi German language
newspaper published in the United
States, presents information on the
leaders of German anti-Nazis which
should be given wide circulation, in
the interests of fair play and the
building of a just peace.
Publishing special issue in honor
of Wilhelm Leuschner, who recently
was hanged by the Nazis together with
the Lordmayor of Leipzig, Karl Goer-
deler, the Neue Valkzeitung pointed
out that he was one of the foremost
leaders of the anti-Nazi underground
in Germany. He was Social Demo
crat, Minister of Interior of the State
of Hessen from 1927-1933, in which
capacity he fought the oncoming Nizi
tide with every means at his dis
posal.
In fact, when Hitler was appointed
chancellor, Wilhelm Leuschner pre-.
pared for an armed defense of de-
mocracy in his state, mobilizing the
Hessian State police and the repub
lican workers organizations; however
to avoid war in Germany, the aget
Hessian prime minister counteractet
Leuschner's order.

gle against the Nazi regime. Whel
representing the German trade unions
prior to their oppression by H. tier, a
