Suggestion System
TO OufIast War
by sILER FREEMAN

The suggestion system, used
almost 100 per cent in the war
plants, is expected 10 survive
and be carried on after the
war. Not that it is exactly
novelty in the larger plants. 1t
has been used for many years.
but has never been so widely
developed as during this war.
General Motors alone gets AT
least 10000 suggestions a month
and uses better than 20 per
cent OF them. Most of them
are concerned with production,
mainly 10 speed IT up. because
that is where the emphasis has
been. About one-thlrd of the
ideas suggested by workers
have 10 do with safety and
working conditions, 10 improve
both.
They are mainly practical,
rather than patentible ideas,
that go into the suggestion
boxes.

duced since the end of the last
fiscal year from Sl.0lS,901 900 on
Sept. 30, 1913, TO about S750,000.-
900 as a result of Cut-backs Of
certain army and navy contracts
and voluntary price reductions.
The present backlog, he said.
is the equivalent OF about 10
months production. However.
Breech pointed out that he looked
for further extensive cut-backs OF
government contracts before the
end of summer. He said he hoped
these cut-backs come as soon as
possible, because that will be an
indication that the invasion has
been success
Breech said he was concerned
about the lack OF planning for
reconversion TO civilian produce

ELLINGTON PLAYS FOR
WOUNDED AT HOSPITAL

CAMBRIDGE, Ohio, Sept. g.
Announcement was made today by
the Public Relations Officer at
Fletcher General Hospital, Cam
bridge, Ohio, that Duke Ellington
and his band will appear at the
hospital on Monday, September II,

Palace Theater, Columbus, Ohio.
He will appear in the Red Cross
theater at the hospital and will
bring his complete stage show with
him. The appearance of Duke Ell
lington at the hospital is the second

top flight bands arranged by Geo.
A. Delis, District Manager of the
Constant Theater chain. Mr.. Delis
learned that the wounded soldiers
at Fletcher had been missing out

victory means that upon the vic
tor lies the twin burden of max
ing and keeping the peace,
The victor not only has the
task of cleaning up the rubble
of war, but of building anew
To this task the victor must ap-
ply the same selfless devotion to
a cause that he applied in war.
To this end he must drive
through obstacles = once max
ing sure what end he is after.
He must not be swayed by per-
sonal inclination nor prejudices,
not any more than in time of
war must he be won from his
course by the wishes of indi-
viduals.
The responsibility of victory
means that the victor must be
above revenge. Hatred cannot
solve the problems of peace. A
way must be found for nations
to live together in amity. The
victor must act with justice, not
swayed by maudlin sympathy
nor by personal prejudice-but
clearly, coolly, fairly and with
an eye to the future.

Hunting Safe+y
TO Be Stressed

GRAND RAPIDS, Sept. 30
Expressing belief that hunting
accidents can be prevented by
education in the use of fire
arms, Harry r. Gaines, exec
utive secretary of the Mich
igan United Conservation Clubs
declared today that the l944
Conservation Week, October
1-8, would stress hunting safety
every club in our organiza-
ton is planning to carry on an
extensive s fe ty campaign,
Gaines said. 1--WE believe that
education rather than legislation
is the solution to Michigan's
hunting accident problem. Sta
tistics show that 1t isn't the in
experienced hunter alone who
causes accidents and we feel
that it is our job to show even
the old timers how hunting ac-
cidents are caused and how
they may be prevented.
Last fall there were 1872
hunting accidents in Michigan.
OF these 20 were fatal. There
isn't any reason why, by serious
effort, we can't at least cut
this toll in half"
Conservation clubs will dis
tribute hunting accident posters
and leaflets telling how guns
should be properly handled;
will show motion pictures de-
signed to teach proper handling
of firearms and will conduct
hunters schools"
With the opening of the 1914
Conservation Week, member
clubs of the MUCC will again
distribute poster stamps, sale of
which supports the organiza-
tons educational program, The
stamps depict in natural color
various outstanding spots of
scenic beauty in the state and
are used extensively to adver-
tise Michigan.

Commufofor And

Tied For Lead

Toledo Steel Products in clean
ing the Toledo Pressed Steel
team on Wednesday night put
the Products into a tie for first
place with the Standard Com
mutator five. Commutator could
have held undisputed league
leadership in the Local IL Ma
tional League, but they two
were beaten two games by the
up-and-coming Mather Spring
boys.
In the Mather Spring Stand
ard Commutator series, c. Am
borski, John Grant, Roy O'Dell,
j. Hall, A. Konekoski, G.. Baer
and H. MalkoWski landed in the
200 class.
Joe Pinski's big 622 was the
main reason why his team, the
Bingham Stamping won two
from Gordon Mfg. Frank Molik
of the Gordon's came up with
two games over the 200 mark,
but they were not enough to
overcome the Pinski handicap.
Steel Products took the Press
ed Steel five to the cleaners for
three games and are now resid-
ing in a tie for first place with
the Commutator team.
DeVilbiss rolled without op-
position. Ransom and Randolph
was unable to show Wednesday
night, but will be back in the
game next week.

Hamburg Ceilings
Here and There

SAN FRANCISCO LPA)-
OPA ceiling prices came to
Alaska just at the time they
were most desperately needed
by servicemen and civilian war
workers, the American Labor
Citizen" San Francisco AFL
weekly, revealed last week.
Prices of restaurant and tav-
ern items, ranging from food to
beer, were exorbitant before
OPA moved in, the Labor Citi-
zen" learned in an interview
with a young Californian on
furlough from the coast artillery
in Alaska.
II laughed my fool head off
the first time l went into a
restaurant after OPA hit Sitka,
the artillery man told the paper.
II looked at the menu and was
it a sight. You run your eyes
down the prices and you see
Hamburger 15c. Between the
Hamburger and the 15c was the
old price scratched out. Behind
the ink blur you could still see
the soc. Two dollar steaks came
down to 85c and so on. The first
night l saw this felt so happy
| didn't eat anything but went
next door into the bar and or
dered a bottle of beer. | threw
down a quarter and half. The
bartender gave me very dirty
look, picked up the quarter and
almost hit me in the eye with a
nickel in change"
OPA officials in Washington
were particularly interested in
the Labor Citizen" interview
with the serviceman because
labor representatives in OPA
had originally advocated the
listing of restaurant and tavern
prices over the country.
An OPA official representing
a trade union was responsible
for the OPA putting on the bot
tom of the poster of ceiling
prices a special line reading,
"Erasures or changes of prices
are unlawful" That single line
of type had much to do with re-
ducing the cost of hamburger
by more than 3006 for service
men in Alaska, OPA officials
admit.

Margarine AS Good
A Food AS Butter.
Govt Experts Say

WASHINGTON (LPA) - Or.
ganlzed labor and consumer
groups throughout the country
have sent representatives to ap-
pear before Congressional com
mittees for the past 10 years to
argue that workers are taking a
gyping at the hands of big dairy
interests who are trying to keep
eleomargarine off the market
when butter is too expensive for
workers to buy.
Scientists appeared before the
Senate Agriculture committee
two months ago to prove that
there was little or no difference
between the nutritional value of
butter and margarine.
Government experts advised
workers last week to buy Vita
min A fortified margarine in
stead of butter.
Oleomargarine has $3.50 cal
ories; butter 1925.
Oleomargarine has 868o fat;
butter 81%.
Vitamin A fortified marga-
rine, according to Dept. of Agri-
culture experts and consumers
organizations, is more valuable
for infants and adults and is
much more easy to obtain. The
margarine costs two red ration
points while butter requires 20.
The margarine costs up to 25c
a pound but butter is usually
priced at soc.

Early requests for deer hunt
