Three Years of War

throughout three anguished years,
and will continue to fulfill it stead
tasty until the war is won.
They have fought and bled and
died.
They have worked and sacrificed.
They have consented to the sus-
pension of many of their cherished
freedoms.
They have pledged "to each other
our lives, our fortunes and our sacred
honor" as their fathers did before
them, in the nation cause, knowing
it to be JUST cause which must
prevail whatever evil forces are ar
rayed against it,
America has the UNITY of pur-
pose and loyalty which the winning
of this war requires.
America has the FAITH to win
this war.
America CHERISHES the things
for which this war is being fought.
THREE long and hard years of the
i terrible conflict have now gone by.
The fourth year may not be the
end of it.
But whatever the time or cost,
whatever the grief and tears, what.
ever the burden and sacrifice,
America will FINISH the task upon
which it was compelled-against it's
will and it's peaceful instincts-to
embark three years ago in the flame
and smoke and pain and death of
Pearl Harbor.
That is what all Americans have
in their minds on this third ami
versary of war.
Let them have one other thing in
their minds.
The American lives being sacri-
feed in this war, the American ener
gies and loyalties being devoted to
it, the American wealth and re-
sources being expended in it, must
buy something more than victory.
Let these things buy permanent
condition of American life in which
those who have achieved the victory
will be REVERED and in which the
peaceful and free way of life they
will have restored will be our assured
and lasting attainment.

THE war has now lasted three
l. years, and is going into it's fourth
year with little prospect of victori-
Gus conclusion before another ami
versary, and is thus a very LONG
war.
1t has cost 536,950 American
casualties, nearly the equivalent of
the total prewar population of San
Francisco, and is thus very
TRAGIC war.
It has transformed the peaceful
youth of America into vast and
superb military force, and has thus
caused not merely an interruption
in our normal national life but a
diversion from our RIGHTFUL way
of life.
It has converted our tremendous
productive facilities into great
arsenal of war and destruction, when
they were once such prolific source
of useful and beneficial goods of
peace, and is thus a most EXPEN-
SIVE war in terms of national prog
ress and prosperity.
It has turned almost our entire
national income into expenditures
for war and taxes for war, while
borrowing against the incomes and
resources of many future genera
tions, and is thus most BURDEN.
SOME war.
A LII of these things were long fore
n seen, and often warned against,
as the inevitable consequences of
war.
That is why thoughtful and patri-
otto Americans tried so very hard to
keep America OUT of war, and up
to the very day of Pearl Harbor
three years ago worked and pleaded
and prayed for peace.
After Pearl Harbor, of course,
there was no division of opinion
among the American people about
what had happened or what had to
be done.
That tragic day, dawning in
infamy and melting in the American
people a great wrath that will not
subside until a victory is won upon
which peace can rest again, left all
Americans with single duty.
They have fulfilled that duty

OUR SOLDIERS
(From: Electrical Workers JournaD

(From: Electrical Workers JournaD
In a democracy, civilians left at
home may accurately and frankly
speak of the men at the front as "our"
soldiers. With II 100000 in the armed
forces there is no family in the United
States untouched by the costs of COM
bat.
1t is for this reason that there
should be no division of idea or senti-
ment between the soldiers at the front
and the soldiers at home. Persons who
undertake to widen the gap between
the two arms Of the population are
performing a disservice to the public.
Our soldiers are still our boys. They
are performing proudly as the sons of
free men should perform. They have
good manners, and they are not mill
tarists. 1t is this kind of army that a
democracy should produce and the
United States may well be proud of
the Army that it has created.

Tobin May Be Senator

Joining forces in demonstration
of united labor political belief, CIO
and AFL leaders formed single COM
mittee to call upon Governor Henry
F. Schricker of Indiana to urge ap-
pointment of Daniel Tobin, president
of the international Brotherhood of
Teamsters (AFL) to the U. S. Senate
seat vacated by death of Senator Van
Nuys.
The CIO members of the 26-man
committee were headed by Raymond
S. McKeough, midwest regional di-
rector of the CIO Political Action
Committee, and Powers Hapgood, C1O
regional director.
The unified support for Tobin came
as a surprise to Indiana politicians
who had been skeptical Of efforts to
achieve a joint labor political action
program for the 1914 elections.
Governor Schricker, although inn
pressed by the representations in be-
half of Tobin, gave the appointment
to Samuel D. Jackson. Current report
is that Shricker intends to run for the
Senate seat himself when his term
expires.

AFL COUNCIL URGES FOOD
FOR EUROPEAN CHILDREN

Miami, Fla.-The AFL Executive
Council called upon the United Ma
tions to permit the sending of food
to the starving children of friendly
nations of Europe now occupied by
the Nazis. The Councils declaration
follows:
"The American Federation of La
Dor is deeply concerned over the fate
of the starving children in Nazi oc-
cupied countries of Europe. The fu-
ture depends upon the children. If
they are allowed to perish or become
subnormal civilization will suffer ire
parable loss.
Experience in Greece and France
has shown that they can be saved
without aiding the enemy We are
strongly of the opinion that food
should be sent to them Immediately.
To give courage and strength to our
friends who are fighting for us would
shorten rather than prolong the war.
Strategy and humanity unite their
pleas that these children be saved
"The inhumanity of starving the
children of those who fight valiantly
for us and whose help we shall urgent
ly need in reconstruction days ahead
cries aloud for immediate action. We
send food through the blockade for
prisoners of war and for British and
American civilian internees in German
held territory, yet we deny the Nor
wegian, Polish, Dutch and Belgian
officer fighting with the Allied Forces
the right to use his own money with
which to purchase and send food to
his starving wife and children at
home. This is not in accord with
Anglo American justice and fair play.
1t is just as right to send food through
| the blockade to the families of our
Allies as to our own and we respect
fully urge upon our Government i'm

Joint AFL-CIO Report EX-
poses Inadequacy of
BIS Figures

Washington, d. C.-Labor's war on
the Little Steel Formula" wage
freeze was opened with heavy bar
rage of facts and figures fired jointly
by the AFL and CIO, showing that
the cost of living has increased at
least 43.5 per cent since Pearl Harbor.
This conclusion, described as "high-
ly conservative" directly challenged
the findings of the Bureau of Labor
Statistics that living costs have risen
only 23.4 per cent in that period.
In 78page mimeographed report
to the Presidential Committee Investi-
eating the Cost of Living, AFL Secre-
ary-Treasurer George Meany and R.
J. Thomas of the CIO charged:
"The BIS Cost of Living Index is
unreliable as basis for wage adjust
ments during the war period. Sole re-
lance upon it will result in continued
serious injustice to wage earners and
lower -salaried workers"
The Little Steel Formula, present
Government guide to wage-price ad
justments, is based on the theory that
the cost of living increased Is per cent
between Jan. 1, 1941, and May, 1912.
It, therefore, permits wage increases
of Is per cent over Jan. /, 1941, levels.
If the cost Of living report submitted
by the labor members of the Presi-
dents committee is upheld, there will
be ample and obvious justification for
immediate revision of the formula.
In their attack on the BIS index,
Meany and Thomas declared that its
failure to reflect accurately the real
extent of the wartime increases in liv-
ing costs is due to these factors:
lit includes among it's key items,
those foods over which Government
price control and subsidy programs
have been concentrated. Thus, the
price Of sugar, which has been rigor-
! ously held down, becomes the guide
for the category of sweets, whereas
other items like molasses, candy and
jellies, the price of which has mounted
much more rapidly, are mostly ig-
nored.
PIT does not take into account
"the disappearance of cheaper con-
sumption items" from store shelves
and the substitution of higher priced
lines.
3--It almost completely neglects
the effect Of quality deterioration on
the home budget.
1T is based on returns from only
81 of the largest cities, which are not
typical of prices increases in crowded
war production areas.
Breakdown Of the cost of living fig
ures as contrastcd with the BIS fig
ures shows that where the labor
reports finds 74.2 increase in food
costs, the BIS reported only 40.2 per
cent. In clothing, the labor members
found 1872 per cent boost, while the
