DO YOU MEASURE UP?

THE FOURTH war Loan Drive IL iii iui
swing And now is a good time to address
a word to the individual whose principal motive
in buying bonds is the attainment OF future
financial security and regular income from
interest payments on the bonds The trouble
with this type of bond buyer is that when fur-
ther purchases become inc0nvenlent and no
longer fit his "investment program, ne TENDS
to keep his pocket buttoned He claims that ne
has done his share. The time is long past Tor
this line of thinking.
Bonds today must be bought by individuals
in prodigious quantities. Patriotism, not per-
sopal profit should compel their purchase. AS a
matter of fact, if we mean what we say in glow
ing tributes to freedom and our proiessed Will
ineness to make sacrifices to win the war, we
should be glad to buy bonds regardless OF inter
est enticements.
Unless bond buying in the last analysis, IS
wholly dictated by the urge to cast our lot SO
far as possible with the men at the front, we can
lay no claim to being patriotic. Real patriots
care not whit for personal security or pr0lt
when their nation is in peril.
The Fourth War Loan Campaign is an OPP
pOrtunity to turn over a new leaf. Buy bonds
for the sake of your c0untry-and forget your
self If you do this, you can justly call yourself
a true American.

COMMENT ON WORLD
EVENTS

Our Army and Navy ana OCnef HSnt-
ing forces provide us with a typical
cross section of American life, drawn
from all sections of our citizenry.
The daily press and radio commen-
tators continue their propaganda de-
signed to lead us to believe the per-
sonnel of our armed forces is alien TO
and divorced from labor.
In other" words, when a union mech
anic puts ON uniform he forgets he
was once Il worker.
1t is not difficult for us here to see
behind this anti-labor campaign, but
the worker in uniform on foreign soil
does not get the full story. He sees
only what our fascist propaganda
writer's want him to read.
There was the Rickenbacker Incl
dent, when the World War air hero's
name appeared in every paper in the
country But did you read anything
about Capt. William Cherry and Johu
Barteck, both members of AFL unions,
who also were on that raft?
And there was Billy Miller, who
Just recently in Italy captured Is men
and a German lieutenant and brought
them to our lines Miller is member
of Bakers Union 145 in Peoria, Ill.
These men and thousands like them
were union mechanics, and they have
not forgotten that their union bro
theirs ON the job here are working with
them.
And, in spite of the campaign to dis
credit organized labor, these men will
be union mechanics when they return.
They don't believe everything they
read in the papers. Nobody could.
The Washington, d. G.. Post is an
advocate of labor draft but it Is
honest enough to admit that one argu-
ment for such draft hasn't a leg to
stand on That is the argument that
a labor draft - called by it's friends
national service legislation prevents
wartime strikes.
The Post cites British experience to
show the unsoundness of the argument
and incidentally, it points out that an
occasional strike may not be all evil.
'SOme Americans" says the Post,
Twill be surprised to learn that the
number of strikes occurring in Great
Britain in 1943 reached an all-timc
high for the twentieth century. AL
though more than half these strikes
were so-called 'quickies is, un-
authorized work stoppages that lasted
two days or less-the amount of time
lost from all strikes added up to 1,SOO,-
600 man-days for the year, the worst
record since 1897. And that despite the
fact that the British worker is sub
.ject to compulsory national service
laws"
The Post goes ON to say that British
strike figures clearly Indicate that
national service legislation lis not a
| sure-fire panecea for the strike evil,
as many Americans seem to think y
Then it adds:
''The British governments eXtraor-
| binary powers to deal with strikes,
coupled with the support of organized
labor, have prevented serious work
| stOppageS in essential war industries
| such as have occurred here But the
British have not discovered any cure
for the occasional strikes that are
spontaneous explosions of pent-up irri
tation generated by the stress and
strain of war. Strikes of this kind pro
vide means of blowing off steam and
relieving pressures that, given no out
| let would constitute a more dangerous
threat to the war production program.

Fine Points in Bndqe

East had the J, with at least a sim

Just what occurred. South over
ruffed the spade Q with the K, and
then laid down the spade A, hop
ing he could catch the J But he
could not, as East had a guard for
It. That made the ] certain trick.
Now the declarer's sole chance
for his contract was that the club
finesse would work. When 1t failed,
his cause was doomed, as he had
no way to avoid the loss OF q
heart for the fourth trick by the
defenders.
If West had not sacrificed his
spade @, right under the guns OF
the higher honors, the declarer
would have made his contract.
OF course, South might have
eliminated the hostile trumps i'm
mediately after getting the lead
with the diamond K-but he did
not He gave West a chance to
beat him.
