The attempts of capital the na- ton over to diScredit and put the shameful brand of slave-labOr up- on American free labor in the SMITH BILL and the National Service Act back fires at the latest Office of War Information disclos- WreS
 Through surveys on labor dis Dutes in War Plants, contrary to statements released at studied in- tervals by Secretary Stimson, 1t has been discovered that Labor Is 90 and 10 1OO% pure.
 It was no doubt diSconcerting to the boards of directors of our lead- ing War Industries when the owl bulletins were announced See how their scores compare to Labor's honor roll percentage. It has been revealed that improper safety of workers. has caused the casualties of War Workers Nationwide to mount to 30,00O above our total First Front casualties since the be- ginning of the war. It is no wonder chat capital has decided in Its inner eanctorum that labor should be drafted, when the figures compiled have proven beyond doubt that it is less risk to the individual to face the open fire and fierce onslaught of our enemies than subject him. self to the tender mercles of War Arrangements.
 To expect workers to approach a hazardous job without the inStalla- ton of proper safety devices is equal to asking our troops to at- tack a well-armed enemy without ammunition. And yet free labor in spite of the savage toll taken in its ranks has not halted in It's ef- forts to exceed itself in War Pro- auction. The figures on American Labor's output for the last year prove this, just as the figures can- not lie on Industries negligence.
 This Union is well aware that the Electric Boat Company has or ganized a safety committee that IS functioning throughout the yards. but in seeking a closer co-opera- tion we are asking all workers in every department in the yards to observe the Safety Rules, and to be alert to unsafe working conditions and report them immediately to the Union Executive Committee. The lives and limbs of fellow workers who have made the su- preme sacrifice so far will not have been sacrificed in vain, if we as- sure the workers that these pre- ventahle accidents will not happen again.
 Let's make the year 1944 Ban- ner year for safety at the E. B. Company with score of 1OO% for management and 100% for Labor.

Anti-Semitism is in the news
these days. Thirty persons, most
of them active anti-Semites, are
under Federal indictment on
charges of melting mutiny among
the armed forces of the United
States and conspiring with the
Nazis. Anti-Semitic violence, in
some cases masked as Juvenile
delinquency" has spread from
Boston to New York, to Chicago,
and most recently to Providence,

Those who are active in fight

press for the indictments also de-

To get the material for these

in the field were interviewed. A
mong the questions raised was
naturally: Why is it necessary to
have five or more groups? Couldn't
the work be done better by a
single organization? Is there
ANYTHING so distinctive about the
approach of any of them that sep

These groups are generally
started when some one person be-
comes concerned enough to give
up time and energy trying to get
others concerned. One of the old
est organizations in the field is
the Friends of Democracy which
was started in 1887 by Reverend
l.. M. Birkhead. In 1885, on
vacation trip to Germany, ne
learned of the anti-Semitic pro-
paganda network which the Nazls
were building up throughout the
world. At Nuremberg he discov-
cred many of the details of the
organization headed by Julius
Streicher, editor of the vile Nazl
sheet Der Stuermer, and with its
tentacles reaching out into the
United States.
When Birkhead returned to his
native American Middle West he
began to recognize in speeches
and local papers phrases and
themes stemming from Nazi
sources. In 1887 he started the
Friends of Democracy to combat
this propaganda and the next year
his new organization met it's first
major challenge. Gerald B. Win.
rod, sometimes known as 1.-THE
Jayhawk Nazi," was running for
the Senate in Kansas.
After carefully analysing Win
rods publications from 1884 on,
Birkhead published pamphlet
entitled Keep Fascism Out of
Kansas" Winrod lost the cleo
ton and has blamed the Friends
of Democracy and Birkhead for
his defeat.
Ever since then the Friends of
Democracy have been going after
hate mongers. They published
and distributed big pamphlet
entitled Father Coughlin Self
Condemned" which Coughlin
blamed for forcing him off the
radio. Joseph McWilliams, now

charges ranging from sedition

The Sources of Anti-Semitism
According to Birkhead, the
three main sources of anti-Semit-
ism in the United States are
"the obstructionist newspapers,
the isolationist Congressman and
subversive groups" The obstruct-
ionist press, he stated, involves
the Observation-Disclosures news

News, the Chicago Tribune and

RESTAURANTS AT
ANCHORAGE ARE
OPENED TODAY

According to advices received to-
day by Wage Sterilization Director
Charles T. Battin, restaurant work
ers at Anchorage returned to work
this morning. a
The walkout, which closed all food
handling establishments in the
westward city last Friday at mid
night, resulted from a War Labor
Board ruling cutting the pay scale
of hundreds of restaurant personnel
Although the workers have re-
turned to their jobs, Roy E. jack
son, War Labor Board attorney at
Anchorage, wired that the en-
ployees are appealing the decision
of the Alaska War Labor Board to
the 18th Regional Board in Seattle.
The reopening of the restaurants
was the result Of a meeting of two
disinterested citizens with two
members of the Culinary Workers
Union and two of the employers.

CULBERT50N BACK
FROM WESTWARD
FISHERIES AREA

According to Fisheries Manage
ment Supervisor j. Steele gilbert
son, back from months field trip
to the Westward, the only bright
spot in the pink salmon district
fishery in Alaska this season is in
the Prince William Sound area,
where canneries are operating at
capacity.
Even in this district, Culbertson
stated, the pink run didn't de-
velop until after July 81. Because
of this late run, an extension to
the fishing season was granted and
will close this evening at o'clock.
The season was originally to have
closed last Saturday.
An average season, with an es-
timated count of a million cases,
was reported at the close of the
season in the Bristol Bay area,
and, according to Culbertson, Nu-
Shagak and Ugashik Rivers both
had very good runs, with fair sea-
sons tabulated for Egegik and
KNchak.
The Cook Inlet run is reported
good, with the upper Inlet sched-
uled to have closed yesterday, while
the season in the lower Inlet re-
mains open until August IL.

II LOSE LIVES,
CLIPPER CRASH

HAV A N A, Aug. o. Seventeen
passengers are dead or missing as
the result of the crash of a Pan
American flying boat that broke in
TWO and sank yesterday in an at
tempted take-off in rough waters
Of Nipe Bay, on the northeastern
coast of Cuba.
Nine passengers and the crew
of five are safe.
Survivors who were flown here
from Antilla, scene of the acct
dent, then to Miami, said they felt
certain all those missing were trap
ped in the clipper when it went
down. Six bodies have been re-
covered.
william Smallwood, San Juan
auto dealer, said the swells in the
bay we're as big as the the four
engined clipper, that flew pioneer
yrans-Pacific flights to China in
1895. When it roared over the
water for yesterdays take-off, he
said that lust as we were ready to
leave the water, we hit high
swell that tore the bottom out Of
the ship. We must have been
going 80 or 80 miles an hour"
Smallwood praised the crewmen,
and declared they were perfect in
their actions and were responsible
for saving the lives of those who
did get out"

The problems of peace, pushed to
the fore by war successes abroad
found political echoes at home in
the selection of Rep. j. w. Fulbright
as Democratic nominee for Senator
from Arkansas.
Fulbright, freshman Congress
man, gained a measure of fame
when the House approved his reso-
luton recommending the United
States take part in a postwar or
ganization strong enough ito main
tain just and lasting peace"
He came out far ahead of Gov.

mary for the seat now held by
Hattie Caraway who lost out in the
first primary. Adkins has conceded
his defeat.
Peace problems also were being
emphasized in the New York polit-
ical picture with both Senator Wag-
ner, New Deal stalwart renominated
by the Democrats, and Thomas
Curran, Republican nominee, speak
ing out.
Wagner said: I'VE must prepare
now to win the peace by organizing
our great resources for postwar
prosperity"
Said Curran: 1T will be my mis-
sion day and night that every bit
of energy l have be devoted to aid
in bringing about great and last
