man ticket I'm the November nati0hitl
election.
Although Chairman Sidney Hillman
of PAC has stated publicly several
times that PAC itself will not spend Il
penny on the national election drive
but would cease expenditures after the
primary campaign and party conven-
tions Labors editorial charges that
pAC plans to have two funds of 81
million each.
After criticizing the use of n broad
trade-iinon measurement of candidates
for office by PAC, the editorial dis
missed that rs Il minor issue and add
ed that what concerns us at the mo
ment Is Mr. Hillman's proposal to
raise great 'slush funds to carry the
coiiiiDp titciioii.
-. If Mr.. Hillman or anyone else,
imagines that II proposal To raise SG
million To control II presidential cleo
tion will not cause the most serious
reperclssions from one end Of this
country to the other, he simply does
not know the American people. In
evitably Mr.. IIillman's program Will
strengthen the hands of organized
labor's foes and Increase the demand
for more rigid regulation of labor
unions.
If only the cIO We're affected by
such hostile reaction, we might shrug
our shoulders and say 'it's none of our
business Unfortunately, while the
great ma ajority of trade unlonists have
no interest in or sympathy for Mr..
IIilman's grandiose plan, the entire
labor movement Is likely to feel the
sting of popular disapproval -.
Labor seriously questions II Mr..
Hilman's tactics will aid the Roose-
velt-Truman ticket, II is much more
likely to iniure IL. But whatever the
effect may be on the presidential cam
paign, Labor fears the consequences
may be- most disturbing To the regular
labor movement Therefore il seems
advisable to repudlate Mr.. Hillman's
unprecedented program M the very

SUNGLASSES


Most people don't need sunglasses,
Consumers Union points out, except
where the light is exceptionally bril-
liant, as at the beach. Normal eyes
light changes. However, good sun
glasses are not apt to harm the eyes.
For comfort choose dull shade
like gray or drab green, Gu advises.
And test the glasses carefully for opti-
cal defects if you are going to use
them for more than occasional sun
bathing. First, check the surface for
cracks or chips. Then, hold them at
arms length and look at brightly
cOlOred object with straight lines, such
as building. If the lines look wavy
bent, disconnected, larger or smaller
through the glasses, or If the image
seems to jump when YOU move the
glasses up and down, reject them. Such
glasses may strain your eyes.
Price has little to do with quality,
Gu found I'm tests Of 27 brands. You
can get good glasses for as little as
25c and you may find serious defects
in glasses coting as much as $5.

CAR POOLING A MUST TO
GET GAS

From now on the government means
business when it says to pool cars. AS
of Aug. 1, OPA has ordered all local
ration boards to refuse full supple
mental gas rations for home-to-work
driving to automobile owners who have
not formed full car club.
Instead, boards will issue only
enough gas for 30 days to drivers who
do not have full ride sharing arrange
ments, and during that 30-day period
they will be expected to recruit their
car clubs to full strength. Three riders
plus the driver must sign the applica-
tion before OPA will give the full 3
month gas ration

War Much Nearer End

Senator kilgore introduced the
War Mobilization and Postwar Ad-
justment Bill =. 1898, March -. 194i.
He re-introduced the bill In per-
fected form May 4, 1914. and was
joined I'm Its sponsorship by Senators
Thomas of Utah, Johnson of Colorado,
Hill of Alabama, Downey of Califor-
MIA, Truman of Missouri, Wallgren of
Washington, Wagner of New York, La
Toilette of Wisconsin, and Pepper of
Florida. A companion bill III. Il. DIG,
was introduced In the House of Repre-
sentatives June 23, by Representative
Celler of New York.
"rhe successful assault by British
and American forces from the West
and South, and the SCATTERING blows
by the Russian forces from the East,
have brought the war In Europe In the
summer OF 1914 much nearer to It's
end. Already Germany Is being torn
with internal dissention, We are ask
ing of our fighting forces a full meas
ure of sacrifice until our troops march
VIGOROUSLY through the streets of Ber-
lin and Tokyo
but the collapse of Germany today
would find Us totally unprepared for
the problems facing us. We cannot
evade our legislative responsibility to
find answers to the immediate prob
lens of war mobilization and postwar
adjustment.

hensive reconversion legislation now

have been issued
These conditions will pose prob
lens of unprecedented magnitude for
which traditional solutions are made
qnate. To convert to full production
and employment in peace, we must find
Is million more jobs than were avail
able In 1889. We must produce at least
60 to 10 per cent more than we pro-
duced in 1899.
"If we plan only for pre-war levels
of production, we shall fail. If we do
not plan for full employment, any
other plans we make will be SWEPT
away in the tide of unemployment and
depression
Adequate Planning Necessary
"These problems, to a limited but
increasing extent, are already pressing
for solution The armed services are
now dscharglng 10 thousand men each
month. Our war production program is
constantly being revised.
Refusal to recognize the effects of
changing demands for war material
may seriously affect war production
itself If cutbacks are not planned, ex-
hOrtations and conpulsions will be of
little use. Only adequate planning for
continuous full production and employ
ment will prevent scramble by both
management and labor To protect them
selves against unpredictable cutbacks.
Our reconversion plans, however,
must be flexible enough to shift readily
with military strategy. The only solu-
tiOn for avoiding conflict between work
ing for victory and preparing for peace
Is orderly planning both for full war
production and for expanding civilian
production.
The plans Of federal and state
agencies, of individual persons and
companies, wait and depend upon com
prehensive Congressional action. Con
gress has passed the q. |. Bill OF
Rights and the Contract Settlement
Act, dealing with specific aspects OF
reconversion. Many members recog-
nized the need for comprehensive legis-
lation and urged that il be passed be-
fore the recent recess. 1t was pointed
out that II piecemeal approach could
not keep pace with the march of
events.
