Attention Called On
Packing Xmas Packages

George A. Zettler, postmaster of
the Hamilton postoffice, as remind
er to persons mailing Christmas pack
ages to overseas addresses, states
"notice has been received from points
of embarkation that some packages
arriving there are already in such
bad condition that they cannot be for
warded to the addresses, or they must
be rewrapped, because of carelessness
on the part Of the sender"
"To avoid disappointment" Mr..
Zettler urged senders to see that the
packages are well packed within the
box so that there is no space for the
articles to slide, wrap the packages
well and make sure that the correct
address appears on the parcel. Care
lessness causes delay, or in some
cases, makes it impossible for the
Christmas packages to be delivered
at all.
Gifts overseas may be sent without
written request until October Is.

gency unemployment benefits amount
ing to 80 percent of full-time earn
ings. We want reconversion to lead
to full employment with national
income of at least $150,000, ,000, 900.
We remember the 100000 unem-
ployed in 1882, with the national in
come at $55, 400 100000 Nor did that
unemployment drop below 100000
until the need for war production
finally brought about a scarcity of
workers. The total national income
of $88,6OO, 100000 in 1889 rose this
year to national income Of $780,
00O,00O,0O0, with unemployment at
last below 100000
Only the progress of our armies
in Europe belatedly forced Congress
to consider plans for reconversion.
Congress considered, but passed
measures that are woefully made
quate. There must be a realization that
full employment and ample incomes
for wage-earners are essential be-
cause it is upon the purchasing pow
er of workers, as consumers, that in
dustries are dependent for prosperity
in peacetime. We must begin to put
this fact into effect by raising the
wage rates before we go into recon-
version.

OPA CURBS LANDLORDS
ON SECURITY DEPOSIT

Washington, D. C. (ILNS).-The
Office Of Price Administration moved
to halt the practice of landlords ask
ing new tenants to put up heavy
sum of cash and of holding to cash
already collected as security de-
posit" against failure to pay rent or
damage to the property.
Some landlord demand $1O0 to 5000
as security deposits" for low rent
houses, OPA said, In one housing unit
for war workers, the deposit was
enough to help finance construction.
Under revised regulations, land
lord may not request or keep "se-
curity deposit" unless it was his prac-
tice to do so at the time of the maxi
mum rent date. He may ask for per-
mission to collect deposit to protect
movable objects, such as keys or ice
trays, but this may not exceed $40.
The practice of requiring advance
payment of months or years rent
is also discontinued by the OPA rul-
ing.

AN EDITORIAL
By William Green,
President, American Federation of
Labor
{ (Reprinted from the current American
Federationist)

Our great military successes in
Europe during the past few weeks

when the nation will no longer need

that period of reconversion be man.
aged and where do we expect it to
lead? Decision on these two matters
will determine what our soldiers shall
return to and the sort Of lives all of
our citizens shall live for at least
the next two decades.
Having in mind the suffering and
the losses that would follow mass
unemployment, the American FEEDER
alton of Labor asked for an answer
to these basic questions early last
Spring. Now huge change-over lies
ahead Of us. 1t will mean dislocation
for at least half of our work force
while half of our production facilities
are made ready for civilian produc-
ton. The time needed for reconver-
sion might be a few weeks, a few
months or two years.
Wage-earners must have current in
comes to keep up normal living. State
unemployment compensation laws are
not designed to take care of such an
emergency. They do not cover all the
people that are laid off; nor would
they provide benefits until workers
could get jobs again. They certainly
would provide only most meagerly
for subsistence needs.
Meanwhile, when industries got un-
der way and were ready to sell new
supplies of refrigerators, automobiles
radios, ct cetera, would the market
be such that they would immediately
cut plans for production and lay off
workers? That is why the American
Federation of Labor asked for emer-

O.S. OIL. INDORSES
ROOSEVELT

Columbus.-Th Ohio State Fed
GRAFTON of Labor, by convention ac-
tion, is on record as urging the re-
election of President Roosevelt for
a fourth term.
The Endorsement, in the form of a
resolution lauding his friendship to
labor, came on the afternoon Of the
third day of the sixtieth annual meet
ing, and followed two hours of dis
cussion.
A standing vote on the question
was estimated as 4-to-1 in favor of
the resolution.
Opponents of the approval of the
president contended that it was a
breach of the AFL's non-partisan po-
sition, while supporters of the in
dorsement cited the sensational gains
Of labor during Mr.. Roosevelt's ad-
ministration.
Proponents also pointed out that
more than half of the State FEEDER
ations of Labor in the nation have
already acknowledged the friendship
of the president by approving his
candidacy, and predictions were made
that other state bodies will follow
suit as annual conventions are held
later this fall.
The delegates unanimously adopt
ed resolution calling for the de-
feat of Sen. Robert A. Taft this fall.
The convention, which began Sep
tember IS, came to close September
21, and both President Michael j. Ly-
den and Secretary Treasurer Phil
Hannah regarded the sessions as
highly successful and productive of
the best possible results. Seven hun.
dred delegates and 400 visitors were
in attendance flcm all parts of the
state.

in Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland,
the District of Columbia and the nine

Over 1000 War Prisoners
Now Cutting Pulpw00d

Boston, (ILNS).-More than 1000
war prisoners are now cutting pulp
wood, Thomas F. Lynch, of the print
ing and publishing division, War Pro-
duction Board, told the 59th conven-
tion of the Massachusetts State Fed
Grafton of Labor.
"The woods labor shortage is due
largely to unattractive wages in war
time," Lynch said. "The war pris-
oners are producing about four-fifths
of cord per day per man. The pris-
oner camps are of the same type as
those in which the American military
are housed, something that cannot be
said for many logging camps.

Zion Church

The celebration of the eightieth
sbirthday' of Zion Baptist Church,
which begins today, is an occasion
which should be of interest to the
whole religious community of Wash
lngton. 1t was in the early autumn
of 1864, while the War Between the
States still was raging, that little
group of free Negro men and women
met in this city and organized the
original congregation under the
leadership of William Walker, a
gifted preacher of the Holy Word.
Nine persons-Harriet Bland Betsy
Branson, Henry Conway, Maria
Dixon, Nelson Elliott, Jane Gwynn,
Andrew Jackson, Susan Landon and
Hannah Matthews-deserve remem-
brance as charter members But
the names of George Jackson, Isaac
johnson, John Shipper, Susan
Thompson, Ann M. Walker and
Letitia Williams also should be pre-
served as having been those of their
aiders and helpers.
AL Of the pioneer sponsors of Zion
Church we're natives of the neigh
borhood Of Fredericksburg, Virginia.
Many of them had been baptized
before they made the journey to
Washington. The zeal and enthu-
siasm of the primitive Christians of
old time wss in their hearts, but,
naturally, they could not know the
destiny OF the work they launched.
Their earliest place OF assembly was

had insisted on leaving this difficult
and important task to an eight-man
board and an administrator who
would have been little more than q
clerk. This promised to result in a
dispersal Of responsibility and an
absence Of authority which could
have led only to more OF the con-
fusion which seems to be the domi-
nant characteristic of the congress
sional program for rehabilitation.
The compromise plan Is much
better. It gets away from the
dangers that might be present In
one-man administration of this job,
and, in providing for a three-man
board, 1t preserves opportunity for
the prompt and decisive action
which soon will become necessary.
It will be essential, of course, to
select able men to serve on the
board, assuming final adoption Of
the compromise plan, and 1t is
regrettable that Mr.. Clayton has
removed himself from the field Of
prospective appointees. But he has
made his decision on this point, and
he apparently intends it to be final.
What remains is for both the House
and the Senate to act promptly on
the report Of the conference COM
mittee. If their proposal is not the
best plan that could be devised, 1t at
least appears to be the best that can
obtain the approval of Congress.

mans for selfish and corrupt ends may
crafty their ambitions for office and
wallow in political spoils, municipal,
State and national.
Could any pipe dream work out more
fantastic and impossible results?
OF course. the President and Con-
gress, in the exercise of the exclusive
legislative power of Congress, could at
any moment put stop to the career of
crime OF the Districts conspiring one or
two Senators and two or three Repre-
sentatives. Congress might not be in a
position to prevent the powerful and
malignant one-fourth colored population
from mastering politically the three
fourths population of weakling whites,
but without the corrupt connivance Of
Congress the conspirators would at this
point be brought to an abrupt halt, ut
terly powerless to carry out their devil
ish schemes. How could they wallow in
the spoils Of Office when the President
and Congress would control every office?
How could they threaten the stability
Of the Republic when they would COM
mand neither soldiers nor militia nor
police force, and when at their first
revolutionary gesture they could be ar
rested and Jailed by the solitary police
man on the block?
Participation In Congress by q few
Representatives Of the District would
not affect the despotic control Of the
District by Congress; and to picture a
grating, corrupt, disloyal and malignant
government of the District is to accuse
a future Congress and future President
Of this dishonesty and Of this treason.
The real danger to the Republic is
that by failure of the Nation to grant
representation in accordance with our
amendment, the District shall become,
with one or two millions Of people, an
area inhabited by incurable political
aliens, taught to belittle and despise the
vital principles upon which the Republic
Is founded: an area possibly for the
intensive and extensive cultivation of

fort and happiness, the building Of
staunch character, we can and should
place our sincere faith.
We also need to put our faith In
that power that has blessed and pre-
served us q Nation. Our fathers
taught us to show due respect to the
laws Of nature and to natures God.
On behalf Of the people. they ap-
pealed to Him as the Supreme Judge
for the rectitude Of their intentions.
Back Of all that was outward in their
hopes and plans was their faith in
Gods power. Truly we need to
exercise that faith today. When we
have won the war, we then must
make peace secure. What wisdom
we shall need? What unselfish in
terest In the liberated peoples of the
enslaved nations? What tender love
toward those who have lost loved ones
in battle? What sympathy for those
who have returned home forever to
bear the scars of the conflict? Our
need for God seems to be increasing
with the passing years with all their
surprising and tragic events. Doubt
1t not. God is able to supply all
our needs out OF His riches in glory
through Christ Jesus our Lord.
\
One hundred years ago, in 1874,
Samuel F. B. Morse, the inventor
tapped out the message over his
curious instruments, What Hath God
Wrought" 1t marked the first send
ing OF a telegram. 1t pointed the
way for the telephone, the radio,
radar and many other uses of
electricity.
AS always the skeptics were there.
What achievements has skepticism to
offer this needy world? But Morse
by faith and works was reaching
forth into the unseen, and his faith
was rewarded.
A mother tells me her son has
written her from the battle-ground in

are wrought by prayer than this
world dreams of-for SO the whole
round earth in every way is bound
oy gold chains about the feet of God :"

Recently one Of our nationally.
known commercial broadcasters said,
"The call for faith Is greater than
the call to arms" 1t Is remarkable
how much Of religious terminology
Is being used in common speech today.
And 1t is sublimely true that all
the might Of our armed forces, our
men, women, with their equipment
Of planes, tanks, ships and guns, are
but the tools of this invisible power
that we call faith. Without faith we
could not hope to win this World
War. As the nation responds to
the call for faith, so shall hope rise
with the assurance Of q glorious
victory.
Our Nation has responded to the
call for arms. 1t Is pouring out its
treasure without stint. 1t Is Offering
the flower Of its manhood and wom-
anhood to perish, If need be. that the
Ideals for which 1t contends shall be
upheld. But victory by arms is
not enough. 1t also must be the
victory Of a cause that Is Just and
right, and such we believe our cause
to be.
Our Nation likewise nobly can re-
spond to the call for faith. It has
ever before 1t the shining example
Of our forefathers who put their
faith into the fundamental prin-
ciples upon which the Nation was
founded. So today we unitedly put
our faith In truths and principles
which we think are essential to the
worlds future peace and happiness.
The issue with our enemies is clearly
drawn: Whether the vicious prin-
ciples upon which they have been
acting shall prevail or whether the
principles to which we are committed
shall survive.
We also need to put our faith in
persons. With us the people count
for everything. Our Constitution
begins with the words, I'VE, the
people" Our American idea is that
the people belong to God, who Gre
ated them and made them to be
happy and free, and that their Gov
ernment is not by compulsion but by
consent. In all the many things that
serve for the enlightenment, the COM
