The German communique told
of the staggering military and

words:
"In the southeast sector of the
eastern front, cur troops are
disengaging themselves toward
the Prut and Siret Rivers. After
parts of Romanian troops had
ceased to fight, many enemy

Moscow reported that Roman

troops that Germans machine
gunned them for retreating and
that they, the Romanians, in
turn, killed their Nazi military
masters.

a state prison on a 10 to Is

Der 1880 and was released in
March l943. Being in prison Is
not concealment Under the law,
George ruled.
CONTACT BAY CITY
Despite this decision, Theut
telephoned Bay City authorities
and asked for cooperation in
connection with a 1929 kidnap-
ing alleged against the suspect.
He was told that the man held
here had been named in connec-
ton with the kidnapping at the
time, but the case has long since
been abandoned.
Throughout his two-day in
generation as a suspect, the AZ
year-old Detroit war plant
worker has stolidly maintained
his innocence of any former
gang connections, or any GRIM
inal associations since his re-
lease from prison.
He admitted knowing "Pret-
ty Boy" Floyd and William Mil
Ter, top-notch gangsters later
killed by the law, but said claims
that he was gang member re-
suited from mistaken identity.
One of Miller's henchmen, had
similar appearance to his (the
suspect's), he claimed.
INFORMANT RELEASED
In the meantime, Lawrence
Castor, IS, whose fearful confess
sion of past gang association i'm
plicated the 42-year-old suspect,
has been released from the pro-
lection of Jail bars at his own
request.
Wednesday he confronted Of
ficials with allegations that his
life had been threatened by the
42-year-old friend whose arrest
he sought. Constant fear and
sleepless nights, Castor said,
had forced his confession that
he had participated in several
gang crimes However, he
claimed that on one occasion he
did so at the point of gun in
Miller's hands, and at other
times was not aware crime
was being committed.
FULL REPORT
Kaltenbach said that parole
authorities will be given a full
report of the alleged threats
against Castor's life, and other
violations Of his specific parole,
including marriage to or associ-
alton with a woman, and owner
ship of a car without permits
sion.
Both Theut and Kaltenbach
express dissatisfaction with the
outcome of the case and admit
that they will continue to probe
its background in an effort to
uproot an efficient gang which
has specialized in safe burglar
les in South Macomb.
Included in Castor's allega-
tions was a tale that he had
heard the jailed suspect discuss
recent burglary cases, but Cas-
tor was far from specific and
the suspect cited the accusa-
tons as crazy.
In preparing to close the case
as far as Macomb County is con-
cerned, Theut remarked:
Under the statute of limita-
tons cited by the Port Huron
prosecutor, the man we are hold
ing could readily admit a long
list of crimes more than six
years old and nothing could be
done about it,"

establish the principle of the guaranteed an
nual wage in industry, which Pres. Philip
Murray is advancing as one of the major
demands Of the United Steelworkers.
The annual wage would give real mean
ing to the freedom from want and fear for
which we are fighting. 1t would relieve the
present discrimination against labor as the
only substantial class of people who have
no postwar guarantees.
Thanks to enormous war profits and the
generosity of Congress, industry has ample
funds from which to pay guaranteed annual
wage.
Furthermore, nothing would do more to
promote greater economic stability and
prosperity than the establishment of such q
principle.
1t would provide an incentive to every
employer to maintain more continuous pro-
duction. 1t would give industrial workers
steady purchasing power the year around.
This would mean steader and more
assured demand for the products Of farm
and industry, and greater prosperity for busi-
ness and professional people in every farm
ing and industrial community.

We all need to eat 365 days in year. But
how many industrial workers can count on
steady pay throughout the year?
The morale of countless war workers Is
seriously affected by worry over the future,
after war orders will have been completed.
And our servicemen are doing plenty of wor-
rying too
What about layoffs, short time, unemploy-
ment, and uncertain pay to meet the very
certain and steady needs of their families?
Business has taken precautions to assure
steady flow of dividends the year around.
1t has set aside huge reserves of undis-
tributed profits for this purpose and Con-
gress has assured 1t tax refunds and other
benefits which i'm effect guarantee normal
profits for at least two years after the war
Farmers too have postwar guarantees,
through a federal law which assures a mimi
mum return of 900 Of parity for two years.

will return to industry are the only sub
stantial group that have sno postwar guar

l. whom the modern Miss Red
Riding Hood should beware, &C
cording to reliable authorities
among the younger generation.
The big, bad wolf who huffs and
puffs gets few dates nowadays, and
still less does the wolf who acts
like a grandma.
But the modern wolf has quite
q range of other DISCUSSES and
techniques.
He may try TO sweep his victim
off her feet by his vigor and
audacity, or he may snuggle up
to her sympathy with signs and
tales of woe.
He may be the strong, silent
type or he may tell the story Of
his life at the drop Of an eyelid.
He may say he hates women, or
he may be a wheedler and fiatterer
with quite n line.
The wolf-call may be a whistle, q
yoo-hoo, a Groom or a cry. In fact,
there Is no limit TO the types Of
approach which may be used,
though the objective Is always the
same.
Right now, however q different
breed of wolves are prowling
around the American home.
II they want to keep the wolf

wolves who prowl around our
doors, seeking to devour our sus-
tenance, here are some samples:
There is the landlord lobby that
complains Of the "hardships" Of
rent control-and asks that It be
relaxed n little here or there.
There are the food corporations
and the big business farm

SOME MORE OF STEAMING
UP CLASS DIVISIONS

Reports from Washington tell of the
Initiating of a move for the start OF
new veterans organization to comprise
this world war fighters and along the
line of the American Legion. New
Yorker is the prime mover.
The reason the report comes from
Washington is that the movement has
the backing and it appears, the active
assistance of Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt.
Thus far the new organization has not
been named, but that will be minor
affair.
Recently Mrs. Roosevelt rendered some
sort of reception at the White House to
chosen few, with the organizer as spe-
cial guest 1t is said at least one general
was there. At that reception the First
Lady. after the dinner or supper or what
ever the repast might have been called,
called upon the New Yorker, and as re-
ported she said, Charles, why don't you
tell these people your story Which he
proceeded to do
1t seems the new organization has no
definite program outlined, or at least. II
so it has not been deemed the right time
yet to spring it. There is hlgh-soundlng
preamble, however, which reads: CONT

1t is unfortunate that anyone Just at
this time, as the so-called soldiers CT
bill is before Congress, should undertake
to set up this sort of organization, much
less that Mrs Roosevelt should sponsor
it.
The American Legion has opened its
doors to present war veterans and as an
organization should be able to meet and
vanquish any threat to peace. The en-
bryo outfit leans wholly to the New Deals
global internationalism as far as its tenets
have been disclosed.

can Legion member must meet The

All individual petitions for in

workers under the wage stabiliza-

Los Angeles. state wage board rep

He also said that the exemption
from Sterilization regulations which
permitted employers of seasonal
farm workers 10 increase wages for
a maximum of 90 days a year, has
been cancelled.
However. tie state board at

they have been delegated the au-

board for the purpose Of establish
ing the basis for a specific wage
ceiling for casual. common farm
labor working at SEASONAL jobs such
as transplanting, wedding, thinning
and harvesting field and truck

ENFORCEABLE PART OF HOT
CARGO LAW SHOULD BE KEPT
CLOS Angeles Times)

Though Superior Judge Wilson has
ruled, probably correctly, that any por-
tions of the ''hot cargo" law which inter-
fere with peaceful picketing are invalid,
the portions which are not invalid should
be enforced vigorously. The judge has
issued preliminary injunction against
intimidation. conspiracy to injure, un-
lawful restraint of trade and coercion,
and so long as it is in force it should be
made to stick.
Because parts of the act may be in
valid does not mean that the whole act
is so. The hot cargo law is the plain
intent of the people of California, pass
ed by a two-thirds majority of the Legis-
lature and ratified at the polls in refer
endum. The people of California cannot,
of course. enforce any regulation held by
the United States Supreme Court to be
contrary to the national Constitution,
nor do they wish to do so. But so far as
regulation is permitted they want it
done.
That peaceful picketing seldom stays
peaceful is a fact of experience. Peace
full picketing per Sc is not forbidden, but
when picketing oversteps the line it can
be stopped. And it may be pointed out
that while slanderous accusations may
not perhaps be enjoined. the right of free
speech does not relieve the speaker from
civil liability; untrue written statements
which tend to promote breach OF the
peace may be prosecuted as criminal. If
any banners or placardS carried by pick
cts are inflammatory their bearers can
be proceeded against; and so can they
be for inflammatOry utteranceS.
The intent of the hot cargo act is to
preserve peace in employment relations
and the authorities charged with the pro-
lection of the public peace do less than
their duty if they fail to enforce it to the
limits of legal possibility. No hands are
tied when peaceful picketing degener-
ates into riot

BREAK FOR The DOG

(Riverside Daily Press
Pasadena and San Mateo recently
adopted ordinances waving license fees
for lifetime of all dogs hOnorably dis
charged from service in the armed forces.
The San Male0 ordinance reads: THE
license collector is hereby authorized and
directed to provide such dogs with suit
able license tags without charge there
for"
We are wondering what provision has
been made for the owners of such dogs,
if they chance to be servicemen. The
Riverside policy has been to grant free
licenses for house-to-house sellers of
merchandise only to such veterans as
make their residence in the city. GER
tificate of disability from the health Of
ficer is also required. The city is able
to maintain this policy because it oper-

and San Mateo dog owners, however, is
what will the dog catcher do when the
