SEND COPIES TO
THE ARMED FORCES!

Washington, D. CT is vitally
important that those serving in the
armed forces be advised of the truth
regarding labor's war record and it's
policies with regard to postwar jobs
and veterans legislation.
For this reason we are anxious that
copies of AFL President William
Green's radio address entitled Labor
Fights For The Serviceman" get into
the hands of as many servicemen as
possible.
This address has been printed in
handy pamphlet form and can be en-
closed in letters to those serving in
the armed forces here or overseas.
The American Federation of Labor
urges every one of its members who
has a relative or friend in uniform to
send him copy of this pamphlet.
Copies can be obtained free of charge
by writing to the American Fedora
tion of Labor, Washington, D. C.
Affiliated organizations w h C h
would like to send these pamphlets to
their members now in the ar m e d
forces can also obtain free copies in
the same way.

WHAT NEXT?

Details of revolutionary new sys-
tenn Of vacuum power braking which
has equipped more than 100000
American and Allied military vehicles
since Pearl Harbor have been revealed
by Malcolm P. Ferguson, vice-presi-
dent of the Bendix Aviation Corp.
Known as the "Hydrovac," the new
unit, which combines all the elements
of vacuum power braking into a
single self-contained assembly, will
be available for early postwar appli-
cation on passenger cars, trucks,
buses and all other vehicles that can
be equipped with automatically actu-
ated brakes, Ferguson said.

J CHERRY TREE
Where with eur Little Hatehet We tell
the truth about many things. sometimes
profoundly, Sometimes Aippantly, some
times rscklsssly. f.

A great deal has been written about
the volatile Latins. Very few ever
think of Americans as volatile, but
they can give the Latins cards,
spades and little casino.
That's how it is.
We now are going through some of
our volatile monkey shines about
Russia.
Ever since the war started there
has been lot Of "off ag'in, on ag'in''
business about our relations with
Russia-Soviet Russia, to be exect
Just now we have been having some
jitters because Mr.. Stain has seen fit
to extend official recognition to Ba-
doglio and Vittorio Emmenuele, the
little shadow of king.
Our government has been having a
lot of dealings with Badoglio, but just
the same it doesn't see fit to extend
Official recognition" to the Badoglio
regime.
If you think that's funny, you don't
know diplomacy.
| But about Russia. We get all fud-
died up because there is so very much
befuddlement about the whole war re-
lationship.
We don't have any clear group OF
free democracies fighting clear
group of relationships.
We have both kinds on both sides
That's not as confusing, really, as
it seems. For one side clearly stands
for one thing, while the other side
stands for the other thing.
One side stands for freedom; the
other side stands for dictatorship
Stain, who made deal with Hitler
to gain time for arming and training
Topped to our side and has fought
like ton of wild cats.
He doesn't have any high sounding
principles to cling to, so he makes
whatever deal seems opportune at the
moment. Tomorrow he may kick Ba.
doglio in the pants.
Stain makes a lot of fuss about
our delay in establishing what is
humorously called the second front
1t is said he is impatient with us
and so signs on with Badoglio.
1t has been said here before and il
may as well be said again that we
HAVE established second front ane
one hell of hot one at that.
Some folks can't seem to see sec
ond front unless it's on the ground

used not only to divide support of or
ganized labor; it is something which
can be used to weaken organized la
boris influence; and something to use
as an example of what they believe
to be labor's arrogance.
Officials of this fly-by-night society,
representing for the most part organi-
cations of employees supervised by
their employers can make big noise
infriendly newspapers. But when you
get right down to hardrock, no one
knows anything about their back
ground nor does anyone know any
thing about. their ability or their
claims to represent members of the
independent unions.
1t is true that there are independent
unions which are doing a pretty good
job for their members. And it is also
true that there are some independent
unions which are unions in no sense
of the word; they are merely stooge
organizations of the bosses; members
Of these groups have no control of the
activities of their so-called union. AS,
for instance, the union Of transit en-
ployes in Baltimore, supervised and
controlled by officers Of the company.
Just what influence, therefore,
should the officials of the Mechanics
Educational Society have as repre-
sentatives of working people?
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1944-03-31

No land forces could have wreaked
that damage in five years.
True enough, ground attack Will
follow, but why try to say we are
doing nothing meanwhile, when that
air front is devastating the Reich!
Russia plays her cards as suits
Stain.
Stalin's praise of Britain and the
United States rises and falls as suits
his own special purposes. Why is that
so hard for so many to understand?
AS a matter of fact, it is difficult
to see how the Soviet dictatorship and
the democracies can stick very close
together, except in the desperation of
war.
Stain has shown more than once
his readiness to lambaste Britain and
the United States when they weren't
keeping to his schedule as he thought
they ought to.

have been agreed upon by Roosevelt,
Churchill and Stain were being
ditched by Stain.
These nations must stick together
in this great war.
But as we fight on we may as well
give thought now and then to this:
Does Stalins conduct Of today cast
some sort of shadown down the road
to indicate what we may find when
the peace is reached?
Are these nations to be partners in
and after the peace-or is yet another
holocaust being brewed in the heat of
the current climatic conflict ?-CMW.

COMMENT ON WORLD EVENTS
BY LEFT

end of the war in Europe. The econo-
mist and social welfare expert, who
is also a member of the First Cham
Der of the Swedish Riksdag, recently
returned from one of his frequent
trips to the United States, where he
had attended the publication fis work
"An American Dilemma-The Negro
Problem and Modern Democracy"
published by Harper & Brothers in
New York under the auspices of the
Carnegie Foundation.
The speaker said that he expected
shortages of goods in certain lines
and production in others. A gen
eral depression may be prevented by
the temporary abundance of buying
power, he stated, but from within one
half to three years the situation may
ripen into crisis.
The American economic trend will
have serious consequences for the
whole world, Professor Myrdal de-
clared, adding that in the United
States foreign trade is not expected
to play an important part in main
tanning employment.
For the balance of world econ
omy," the speaker continued, "it is
calamitous that international trade is
held to be so relatively unimportant
Efforts have been made through inter-
national organizations to build up a
defense against this world danger, but
from what l have seen of these nego-
tiations, l am not too confident that
they will bring results"
He admitted, in conclusion, that
postwar planning is very much simp-
Ter and easier in Sweden but warned
against over-optimism, since Sweden
is SO dependent upon the rest of the
world.

AN ARMY OFFICER gets front
n page headlines with his theory
that, after all, we did not do so badly
at Pearl Harbor on December Z, 1941.
This armchair str a t e gist has
proved with his pencil that using the
percentage system we came out pref
ty well. We inflicted, he says about as
much damage to the Jap sneakers as
could be expected under the circum-
stances.
The more than 5000 beaded at
Pearl Harbor would, we are sure, be
considerably comforted if they could
read his diagnosis of that deplorable
affair. The millions of dollars worth
of ships, planes and material de-
stroyed by the Jap surprise attack
was only what should be expected, ac-
cording to this military expert.
However, perhaps this official has
the gift of hindsight. If he can con-
vince anyone that his theories are
correct he ought to be valuable Dip
lomat, or something. He waited more
than two years to reach his astound-
ing conclusion, which is on a par with
that famous Kokio raid, whereby we
lost 16 bombers and made the Japs
almost angry.
Americans have heard all sort OF
predictions about the future of this
country after the war. Some OF the
prophets have painted dark picture,
others have been optimistic. Now
comes a Swedish economist who IS
rather pessimistic, but what he says
is of interest.
Speaking before the Swedish So
ciety of Economists in Stockholm,
Prof. Gunnar Myrdal said that he
feared a very hectic economic devel-
upment in the United States after the

PROFITABLE WAR GRAFT

A subcommittee of the Military AT
fairs Committee of the House of Rep
resentatives has d overed thai
numerous firms" are engaged in hir.
ing workmen at about going rates
and then renting them out to war con-
tractors at profits ranging up to 25C
percent.
And, the committee adds, it must
have been done with the knowledge of
Army and Navy officials, who ap-
proved the bills submitted by these
contractors working on a cost-plus-
fXed-fee basis.
We would of course go even further
than the committee and say that this
dirty business must have been done
with the connivance of military Off
cials. Otherwise it just couldn't hap
pen. We happen to know that in the
Washington, D. c., area union me-
chanics are in continuous battle per-
suading the powers that be to pay
the prevailing union scale of wages
on defense projects.
And, it occurs to us, if Congress
were to enact labor draft law it
would be duck soup for these labor
rent profteers. They could then really
go to town and with the help of leni-
ent military supervision control the
labor market and collect huge sums.
Why this vicious practice has been
allowed to even get started is mys-
terry, and we can't understand why
Mr.. Pegler has not discovered it and
sounded off in his usual manner He
is adept at finding labor's shortcom-
ings, but perhaps he is not so good
when labor is shortchanged.
