the magazine said, and while in
some cases they are not increasing
as rapidly as a short time ago, in
others they have taken a squirt.
within the past fortnight hot
and cold rolled sheet backlogs have
increased appreciably and better ac-
tivity is noted in narrow strip
Steel said that despite cuts in
small arms contracts and in ma

Davis Charts 8::Point
bor-Management
Postwar Policy
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press,
DETROIT, Mar. 13.-Assertine
that he favored minimum of gov
ernmental interference in the prob.
lens of labor relations, Chairman
Davis of the War Labor Board saic
today that he believed management
and labor advantageously could be-
gin now a careful study of the scope
of collective bargaining in its non
wage aspects.
Addressing meeting of the Eco
nomic Club of Detroit, he said:
There is no doubt in my mind
that one of the greatest impedi-
mentS to collective bargaining be-
tween management and workers is
fear in the minds and hearts of
both sides"
Eight Suggestions Made.
Mr.. Davis offered eight general
suggestions to help speed victory in
the war at the same time build up
sound industrial relations for the
postwar period" He summarized
them as follows:
"1. Live up to your contracts and
make them work.
%. Install arbitration as the final
stage in your contracts grievance
procedure.
50 If you already have grievance
machinery, be sure you utilize it in
all disputes.
a. If your contract is about to
terminate, extend it until you have
negotiated a new one or until the
regional board has rendered its de-
cision.
IS. Employers should not cause
dissension in their plants by chal-
lenging the right of duly certified
union to represent their employees in
collective bargaining
Leave Raids to Navy.
IS. The same holds for unions
and their raiding tactics, of course.
Let's leave the raiding to
the Navy's task forces. which seem
to be quite expert at it.
a. When negotiating new con-
tracts, or revising old contracts,
make sincere effort to negotiate
q settlement.
"8. Above all, employers should
impress upon their foremen, super
intendents and other supervisors
that you don't build tanks or guns
or anything else by fomenting
quarrels with your employees; that
Evening star., 1944-03-13

the way to get better labor rela-
tions is to treat the employees like
human beings. And, of course, that
goes for the employees side, too. - :
Labor leaders must not play politics
by manufacturing grievances in the
plants"
With a few noisy exceptions
leaders of industry and labor during
the war have settled their differ
ences at the conference table or
through the WLB. Let us hope
they will substitute the conference
table for the picket line or lockout
after the war;" Mr.. Davis con-
cluded.

The War On
Many Fronts
BY LOUIS r. KEEMLE
UNITED Press War Editor

Allied Forces, striking with stead
lily growing power, maintained the
pressure against Germany by land
and air fro mthe east and west TO-
day.
The about air offensive, now en-
tering the second month Of its new,
intensified form, was at Its peak.
AS American heavy bombers struck
in force into western Germany and
northern France in daylight to fol-
low up last nights British attacks
on Railway targets In France and
industrial detectives in western Ger
many, London estimated that APP
proximately $500 tons Of bombs
were dropped on enemy territory IN
the last 40 hours.
Within that period, American
heavy bornbers and fighters, about
$500 strong, plastered Berlin with
about $500 tons Of bombs during
daylight Wednesday. They were
followed by an Raj night attack
In which 1890 tons Of bombs were
dumped on Frankfurt, the heaviest
air assault ever made on single
target. Yesterday, the Americans
made another 1,50o-plane assault on
important targets in northwestern
Germany.
The dwindling German Luftwaffe,
hard hit In the air and on the
ground, avoided combat until yes
terday, when 1t made several fierce
but scattered attempts to fight off
the attackers. The Americans shot
down 81 German planes and lost SO,
neither figure comparing in size to
losses in earlier attacks in which
the Germans put up stronger re-
siStance.
On the Russian front, the first
Ukrainian army scored an import
ant victory by smashing Is to 80
miles through the German lines be-
tween Tarnopol and Proskurov, on
the northwestern sector Of the
Ukraine front along the old Polish
border.

Skilled Repalrmen Trained to Fire Every Type They
Repair; General Drewry Relates Experiences

Springfield, Mass, March "A -
Army Ordnance troops in this wal
must know how to operate and fire
every type Of weapon they repair on
the battlefield.
Brigadier General Guy H. Drewry
district chief, commanding the
Springfield Ordnance District, said
today that this large order was
made necessary by the very fluid
nature of modern war and recent
Ordnance battle experiences.
''On one occasion" he said, dur
ing a threatened tank break
through by the enemy in Tunisia
a formidable array of self-propelled
artillery, medium and light tanks
and other battle tools, entirely
manned by Ordnance personnel
was thrown into the most likely
avenue Of enemy approach IN q

knowledge gained in the invasion
of North Africa, Sicily and Italy Is

Ordnance troops in England, who
will open a second front" in Eu-
rope.
Among the first Ordnance units
to reach the beach will be collection
and evacuation units. These units
will collect both allied and enemy
weapons and get them into central
collection points where they may be
repaired or salvaged.
The quicker this material Is
brought to these points, the quicker
can part of it be put back in opera
ton and placed in the hands OF
combat troops. In many instances
one piece of badly damaged equip
ment can be placed back in opera
ton bu utilizing assemblies from
one or more items Of equipment OF
the same type which have also been
damaged severely. The quick return
Of such material to combat is par
ticularly important during the ini-
tial phases of an invasion, due to
the limited amount of equipment
which will be ashore as replace
ments during this opening phaes.

Strongest Stand

The Germans had been making
their strongest stand there for two
weeks. Although neither Tarnapol
nor Proskurov had been taken, the
position Of the Germans still cling
ing to q stretch Of the Lwow- Odessa
railway southeast Of Proskurov was
precarious and they were In danger
Of being pocketed unless they moved
fast.
In the center, Russian advance
columns had driven nearly three
quarters OF the way across Bessa-

river. Germa nefforts to make a
stand there were offset by the rapid
approach Of the Russians, to Balti,
