than anything the United States knows.
1t sounds like the English Beveridge
plan, which Is still due for debate, and
like its American counterpart, the Wag-
ner Murray-Dingell bill which is prom
ised rough shedding in Congress.
They agreed after determined oppo-
sition from the representatives of en-
ployers, to push an almost universal
public health program which would
leave no family without medical care,
whether or not 1t could pay.
They agreed to minimum living
standard in which the size of the pay
check means nothing, currencies and
prices varying too much between China's
rice fields and Upper Park avenue. But
wherever the workman lives the dele
gates agreed he must have an adequate
roof and three meals a day.
They agreed he should not starve
whether he was sick. out of employment
because of depression or partially dis
abled-and if he dies, his wife and child
shall not starve.
That is the program. More problems
than split between industrial and non
industrial nations stand between them
and its implementation.

much to gain from the Australian
proposal.
The industrial nations. England Bel
gium, the Netherlands, France, the
United States, had to consider what
their national treasures would cover.
All but the United States will have
tremendous war damage expenses to
pay. If any nation is to guarantee full
employment, in an international treaty,
it must be prepared to vote large sums
of public money for public works for
some years.
The Australians, backed by an almost
invisible bloc of nations, fought through
and lost to the American delegation,
which was always backed by, or backing,
the British.
But the Americans made one conces-
sion. In the final proposal they agreed
ILO should call emergency conferences
among the Al nations whenever great
areas of unemployment threaten the
well-being of any of them.
Presumably, if a surplus of wheat hits
the Balkans, as 1t did when Hitler first
shared them into this war,Sthe ILO can

NEW YORK-That economic twi-
light through which the New Deal
groped-the problem of keeping a pay
check in every bread winners pocket
is now the fog through which the
United Nations are feeling their way
for the whole world.
The problem precipitated bitter run
ming battle throughout the international
labor conference recently concluded at
Philadelphia, and is continuing now in
private conversations among govern
ments. 1t may result in another con-
ference this year, called to discuss just
one subject: Full employment for the
world
AT the ILO meet the Al nations
broke up into two camps, just about as
the United States did in 1888 when
the farmers couldn't buy from the fac
tories and couldn't sell to the factory
hands. And every one did without.
On a world scale the farms" become
the nations which live by selling raw
materials and the factories" become
the industrial nations, such as Great
Britain and the United States.
The no battle was spearheaded by
Evening star., 1944-06-04

the very able Australian Minister OF
Supply, J. A. Beasley, who demanded a
full employment pledge over everything
else.
He felt that the industrial nations
should prepare public works programs
and tax measures which would give
living wage to every bread winner who
failed to get job in private enterprise.
He argued the program would keep
industrial workers in money with which
to buy The factories would have to
seek raw materials to process. Those
purchases would keep Australias sheep
herder Chile's miner, Brazils wheat
farmer in money and they in turn
would buy from the industrial nations.
The more complicated economies
such as Great Britain and the United
States-agreed in principle, but they
would not sign on the dotted line
They felt that many problems must
be ironed out first, in other conferences
Sterilization of currencies, world trade
agreements, tariff reductions, the gold
standard, transportation.
The conference split, in prevote con-
versations, on that principle. Such ma
tions as China, India. the African
colonies, Latin America. Mexico. had

where people live close to starvation,
such as China and India
None of the decisions of ILO at Phila-
delphia are binding on the home gov
ernments, in the manner the Versailles
treaty was binding
The ILO is actually a debating society.
The delegates meet to air opinions. First
they talk to their home governments to
see how far they can go. They arrive at
the conference to compromise on the
principles of world program.
That compromise is taken back to the
home governments, which, naturally,
could shelve the program. But public
opinion is still big stick One third of
the conferees were leaders of trade
unions.
They carry back the news, foster pub
lie opinion at home and shortly the home
governments are under real pressure.
So, it's important that at this 26th con-
ference-the ILO was born in 1919, after
the Versailles treaty-the delegates
agreed to do what they could about the
Atlantic Charter promise of freedom
from want.
They agreed to move for q world wide
social security system more generous

Final Standings
Baseball Practice Monday Night -


 The call is out for all diamond candidates to report to the Base gym Monday evening at 1730. It is expected that a large turnout will be on hand for the initial look-see by the Bradley baseball mentors. A nucleus is to be formed out of which the nine to represent Brad ley Field in the baseball wars this summer will be chosen.
 Games have already been sched- uled with New London Submarine Base, Camp Endicott, Westover Field, Sampson Naval Training Station, Fort Devens and Suffolk AAF.
 It is tentatively planned to open the home season here on the Base with the Naval Advance Base De- pot, Davisville, Rhode Island, on Tuesday, May twenty-third. This will be a hard test for the Bradley ites due to the fact that the Naval

Red was a good teacher, too, having pitched in the majors himself, coached the St. Louis Cardinals and managed sev- eral Pacific Coast League teams. But somehow Tom never learned how to control his fast one. It al- ways oroke early and sailed neck high-or higher-over the plate.

New Soviet Fighter,
|Yak-3, Lighter Due
To Lack Of Gadeets
BY JAMES ALDRIDGE.

ny JANkLS AAD0xOOEs
tNorth American Newspaper Alliance)
MOSCOW, Aug. 15.-For the first
time Pravda has published pic
ture Of the Soviet new fighter plane,
the "Yak-3."
This Is the lightest fighter plane
in. the world. According to descrip-
tions 1t is lighter than the British
Spitflre and even lighter than the
Japanese Zero.
As first reported, 1t is designed to
meet the Focke-Wulf 100. spoke
to the pilot Of q French Normandy
regiment about this plane. This
regiment has a number OF Yaks and
the French pilot said 1t was the
best plane flying today. These boys
have been very critical in the past
of the planes they have flown. He
said 1t is faster and tougher and
higher-fiying than the Focke- -Wulf
and also more maneuverable.
To get the speed for the new Yak,
the designer did what no designer
is doing these days. He eliminated
all the automatic electric equipment
for boosting speed and the auxil-
iary attachments that modern
planes have. This means that in
stead of q lot of switches in the
cockpit the Yak-3 has a lot of
levers. The pilot does the work him
self. He hasn't got electric motors
to do 1t for him.
This has simplified the instru-
Evening star., 1944-08-15

ment panel tremendously. While
most modern Ohited States, Brit
ish and German fighters are an in
creasing conglomeration of instru-
ments and switches, the Yak-3 has
reduced them to about the same
number as the primary trainer.
BY tightening his machine and
cutting down the wingspread, the
designer, Yakovlev, has gotten more
power out Of his big engine. So
this has made the rate Of climb
