sterilization, stopping war profietering
and holding down high costs of food.
The failure of Congress to do these
things has kept us from total mobiliza-
ton. The President made consideration
of the fifth point-National Service
legislation-contingent upon the first
four being enacted. Nevertheless, anti
labor spokesman and purveyers of dis
unity have seen fit to ignore the first
four points and make much ado over
the National Service proposal.
Il have the highest respect for our
military leaders in their proper fields
but their advice is open to question in
the matter Of civilian mobilization. 1t
is unfortunate that they are now press
ing for civilian CONSUMPTION.
THE record shows that we are vim
ming the war on the Drawn, skill and
loyalty of American workers. Strikes
and threatened strikes have been magni-
fled out of all proportion. Meanwhile,
costs of living have steadily increased
and scandalous war profits have been
concealed or minimized. This has been
a clear injustice to labor. Undue empha-
sis on civilian CONSUMPTION at this time
reflects on the integrity and loyalty of
American workers. Consumption of labor
without CONSUMPTION Of property would
be one-sided and oppressive.
"a number of improvements in man
power and production can still be made.
These include: giving more orders to
small plants, better use of men in war
plants, providing proper community ia
cilities in war production centers, and
orderly transfer of labor from shutdown
to expanding plants. None of these are
provided for in the Acknowledgement
bill which at present is the only Nation
al Service bill before Congress.
1T is my firm belief that if Congress
genuinely enacts the first four points.
the fifth point-Ciyilian Consumption
will be unnecessary"
