So when Gallants ask you TO

War is the most wasteful and
costly extravaganza on earth
1t burns up costly powder to
burst bombs and Shatter mech
anical equipment produced with
rare skill by master craftsmen.
II eradicates the most valu-
able commodity in the world
human lives and limbs .
leaving in their place colossal,
economic loss.
All this loss of life and ma

PLEASE. ONE MORE BOND
America, flushed with recent

Gathers her martial might for
the final blow!
Gathers the strength that will
beat the weary foe.

more Bond is sold,
One more blue star will never

To us the war is very far

We kick about the gas-it makes
us mad
That we can't fill our tanks!
And yet the lad
Who's fighting in mud that's
halfway to his knees,
Is not complaining that he's
overseas!
Somehow he knows he has a
job to do.
He knows he's going to stick
until it's done!
For him, perhaps, the war mas
just begun!
Don't let him down! You see,
he wants to live!
And he may die unless you
want to give!

the fact that the pressure of war needs
is bound 10 become heavier, instead of
lighter, in the coming months. Every
American must realize this
The new regulations Will permit
American workers to be informed ac-
curately where and how they can
make their maximum contribution, on
voluntary basis, to war production.
The system of priority referrals pro-
yides the machinery through which
public employment offices in cOopera-

ties can keep the workers 50 informed
This system involves no force and no

Therefore, ] urge every interna-

of unions affiliated with the American
Federation Of Labor To work with To-
cal representatives of the War Man

plete until Berlin and Tokyo also fai
before our advancing troops.
Big Task Still Ahead
THE Z million members Of the Amer
lean Federation Of Labor know that
the roads to Berlin and Tokyo arc
long and beset with many difficulties
Because Of that knowledge, they have
resolved voluntarily to work harder
than ever before and 10 bear whatever
sacrifices are necessary to make the
war effort on the home front keep pace
with the nations new and impending
military offensives.
In this spirit, the federation ac-
cepts the program Of priority job re-
ferrals and employment ceilings just
announced by the War Manpower
Commission
Let me emphasize, first Of all, that
this program is not new and that il
represents no basic departure from
the voluntary system which has -eil-
abled American workers to surpass all
others in production output.

This emergency manpower pro-
gram, developed by the Mana cement
Labor Committee of the War Man
power Commission, has for some time

WOMEN

Women war workers are answering
| the Navy's call for increased produc
ton of 1O0-octane gasoline by invad
ing another masculine field of labor
according to Petroleum Administrator
Iickes. These women war workers are
working as common labOrers, shovel
ing dirt, sweeping up materials, carry
ing lumber, digging bitches, unloading
brick and cement, handling pipe fit
tings and smaller pipe, and distribut-
| ing supplies in an effort to complete
new 100 octane gasoline plants ahead
of schedule.
Many of these women are married
their husbands or are filling the place
of a man i'm the military service. They
are receiving the same pay as men for
comparable work. More than 10000
women are now engaged in operation
and maintenance of the petroleum in
dustry as well as Office and laboratory
jobs, and also i'm production, refining
and marketing these women are prov
ing satisfactory workers.
Women who never before have voted
are being sought by both Republican
and Democratic parties alike. The
consensus is that women will swing
the pendulum in the 1914 elections. The
Republicans are counting particularly
ON housewives while the Democrats
look for large numbers of votes in the
vast ranks of women war workers and
young women just reaching voting age
Many mems votes will be lost
through battle casualties and through
diSlOcatiOn of war workers failing to
register in their new communities In
many ways women of both parties are
thinking alike. Leaders of both groups
express nope for sound plan To in
sure peace.
