aliSm' as the chief contributing factor; rather would I assert that team work" has been our most valuable asset toward greatness. And I would further assert that teamwork, both national and inter ally, has put on on the road to Vic tory in the war.
 It is on the basis of this belief that want to appeal to my fellow workers at the 6. B. to refuse to stand down, and leave all the post war planning and reconverslon study to be done by only half the players of the war winning team of U. S. A., either locally or nation ally.
 All Americans and all groups of Americans have a definite stake in our reconverSion and postwar periods, and if any sizeable and in fluential group, such as the Labor group, is not asked to, nor is asking for the right to contribute to the accumulation of knowledge neces- Sary before formulating plans, then it is entirely possible that this one sided planning may just weigh the difference between success and failure of any plans adopted.
 Labor has a stake, very big stage, in the standard of living in the years ahead, locally as well as nationally. I do not believe that a reconversion and postwar committee such as we have in the New London area, with only man. ufacturing and business interests on it can possibly represent the true feelings of the people in this area For instance, when our fel- lows, who used to be employed in the New London area industries come home and find that we al- lowed talk of turning this district back into a vacation land, by the New London committee, to go un- answered. while they were away, they certainly will be justified in figuring we let them down.
 Our own local DoUghboys and Gobs have their dreams of home. Surely New London is in all their

1t was the willing cooperation of these two elements in American life that gave us that "oomph" that put us on the road to victory. believe that the Labor Manage ment or tRne Worker-Capital team work used for war is the best set- up for the reconversion and post war planning ahead.
 Therefore believe that as a numerically strong labor group in this area we ought to be interested in and represented on the New London Reconversion and Post War Planning Committee.

dreams. They dream, perchance, of a reasonable amount of job se- curity, that some day will enable them to own that little 24 footer, or maybe even skiff and outboard motor. Could it be that the typi- cal boy of this area dreams of the day when he will push the nose of some craft of his very own out in to the waters of the Thames River and enjoy the award in play years for his years of hard fighting? An award that he so richly deserves.
 Such dreams can only come true for our local boys if they can find jobs around here. A vacation land will not provide these jobs, and people do not vacation in an indus trial area. Yet, lido not want to emphasize any isoated item under consideration by the committee for New London because even ap- peasement on this vacation land issue would still leave the commit tee unbalanced unless they change their policy of only considering the businessman's angle of every post war or reconversion idea.
 Other post war and reconverSion groups, notably the San Francisco Work Pile Plan, have invited la bor to sit in on their planning, and expressions of opinion as to the value of such a procedure are coming through every day.
 Many great business minds, out standing among them Bernard Ba- ruch and Eric Johnson (Chamber of Commerce), are of the opinion that the reconverSion period and post war years need carry no de- pression menace if we plan wisely, but they emphasize that we must plan wisely.
 would say in the light of our war experience that the essence of the wisest plan is that attitude that gets teamwork.
 Many men high in the industrial field have voiced the hope that the closer relationship of our war time period between Labor and Management, will be carried on into peace times. Responsible La bor representatives are expressing the hope that the lesson of wartime unity, which gave us such mirac- ulous results on the production line, will merge into peace time unity that will insure for our re- turning warriors saner, better U. S. A. than we eve had before. If in every community in this country, the local committee is short changed on Labor's interest and cooperation on post war and reconversion, then we surely can- not expect a smooth running or ganization for the very big job ahead.
