American Civil Liberties Union will
support an appeal by American Fed
Grafton of Labor attorneys to the U.
S. Supreme Court against the Ala
bama "Anti-labor Law" (the Brad

assessments, together with an item
lied list Of all disbursements, with
names of recipients and purposes
therefore," as we'll as lists Of THEN

The ACLU will also oppose anothe,
section of the law which makes II
illegal for any executive, admins
trative, professional, or supervisory
employee" to be member Of unior
which admits ordinary employees tt
membership, as an unreasonable re
striction upon labor's right to or

WE'RE PROUD OF
THESE HEROES
Young Teamster Awarded DSC

Young IeamSter Awarded DSC
Washington, D. C.-"For disting-
uished heroism displayed when under
heavy enemy. fire." 20-year old Sgt.
William E. Dreher, Jr., Cleveland,

Gently awarded the Distinguished Ser
vice Cross, Army's second highest
medal, on a battlefield in France.
Sgt, Dreher, then Private First
Class, was a member of Ranger bat
talon which was one of the first as
sault waves to hit the Normandy
beach on D-Day. He won his medal
on the following day, June 7, at St.
Pierre du Mont. France. Advancing at
the head Of a column into this village,
he met point blank machinegun fire
from the Nazis and, without a mo-
ment's hesitation, coolly continued
forward and destroyed the gun.
Then, continuing his advance into
the village, Dreher suddenly found
himself subject to a barrage Of enc
my mortar and small arms fire. Rath-
er than surrender, he engaged in the
uneven fight, killing two enemy rifle
men and standing his ground until
the Nazis, evidently thinking them
selves overpowered, withdrew.

Eleven Per Cent Increase In Month "Wonderful"
Says WPB Chief

Washington, D. c. Describing
November as a wonderful month
for critical munitions production,
Hiland G. Batcheller, acting chair
man of the War Production Board,
revealed that the Is critical programs
spurted II per cent ahead of October
levels.
Stating that 1--WE are now making
tremendous progress" Batcheller eau
toned that the programs still call
for tremendous" increases which can
only be achieved by use of 'sall our
resources in manpower and facilities. y
To illustrate, he stated that it has
just been decided to construct posi-
bly, 40 million dollars to SO million
dollars worth of new tire-making
plants, some of them "from the ground
up" to create additional tire-making
capacity capable of producing mil
lion more tires year.
Going over the critical programs
one by one, he stated that miracle
of production" has been accomplished
in boosting production of B-29 Super.
fortresses 80 per cent between June
and November, but indicated that
present volume must be roughly
doubled before expanding schedules
can be satisfied.
In November, 80 per cent more

and made truly democratic and repre-
sentative of all the workers"
The uncertain and changing politi-
cal situation in Italy, according to Col.
Smith, has caused delay on the part
of the Italian government in enacting
legislation to recognize and develop
the labor offices established by the
Allied Military government to pro-
vide the necessary functions of the
state in labor relations, public en-
ployment service, and labor standards.
The Italian Government and the Ital-
ian Ministry of Industry, Commerce
and Labor are committed to the adop-
ton of these services as functions of
the state, as in Great Britain and the
United States and legislation is now
pending in this field. A national COM
mission has also been appointed for
the improvement of the social security
structure.
Col. Smith promised:
"As part of Allied Commission, we
shall continue to do our best to advise,
aid and support in every way posi-
BILE the hopes and ambitions of the
working man. We know from ex-
perience throughout the world that
the best guarantee of freedom is a
strong, intelligent working group of
independent thinkers. We are anxi-
Gus to see healthy labor movement
in Italy-not only for the welfare of
the working man but for the part it
will play in the economic reconstruc-
tion of the country"

STRIKES NOSE DIVE
DOWN TO NEW LOW

Washington, D. C.-Time lost by
strikes has taken nose-dive, the De-
partment of Labor revealed.
During October, the last month for
which figures are available, man-days
lost from work stoppage amounted to
100000, or mere 9/100 of l per cent
of time put in by the nations work
ers.
That's decline of 322,534 man
days below losses from strikes for the
corresponding month a year ago, the
department said.
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1944-12-29

in October to bring the total 8 per
cent above schedule for the month.
Most dramatic gain cited by
Batcheller was the 262 per cent rise
in Navy rocket production over June.
November production was per cent
above October levels, per cent ahead
of schedule, he said. But production
must continue to expand from the
present Is million dollars a month
rate to rate of Is million dollars
month, he said.
Batcheller, WPB chief of opera
tions, conducted the press conference
in the absence of WPB Chairman J.
A. King, who is on the West Coast
inspecting war plant installations.
In October, critical programs show
ed per cent increase over Sep
tember, Batcheller pointed out.
The critical production situation
prompted the recent announcement
by War Mobilization Director James
F. Byrnes that Selective Service
would resume the induction of mer
in the 26-through-37 age bracket who
quit war jobs or were engaged in non
essential activities.
Batcheller said he had "great
hopes" of making use of plants where
war contracts have run out to make
critical items. He said it was prefer
able to use the manpower in the plan
where it is "organized into a team
to moving it to other plants.

Meets The War

Mrs. America, don't throw away
the back cover of your old "a" ra-
fion book if you are planning to
continue using your jalopy. Re-
newals for the new "a" gasoline
ration will start on Friday, August
25. You may get your application
from your local board or any serv-
ice station. Then attach your tire
inspection record and the back
cover of your old "a" book and
mail it to your board. It's as simple
as that
There's been a rumor going
around that there's to be holiday
but it isn't sugar, says OPA. If
you are in the home canning for
resale business, you may secure up
to 250 pounds per family unit, but
you must follow the same rules as
any other dealers.
If you are feeling blue after
paying your bills on the first of the
month, just remember you have
made so points. On September l,
five more blue stamps worth ten
points each will become valid for
an indefinite period. You will then
be able to spend stamps G5, H5,

The points you can save by buy
ing ration-free beef and lamb will
enable you to treat that hungry
breakfast crowd to ham and eggs.
Ham has gone back on the ration
list, because of the seasonal decline
in pork production and more pur-
chases by the army and the navy.
Cuts from pork loin also now re-
quire red points. Point values
range from four to eight points a
pound for various cuts of loin
roasts and chops and from two to
eleven points a pound for ham.
The popular boneless slices of ham
are nine points a pound, while a
whole or half ham is five.

And here's some good news for
meat-lovers. Utility grades of beef

These lower grades are just as

do require more cooking. Since
utility beef has less fat, it should
be cooked slowly and with some
moisture to draw out its rich flavor.

Nov, as the Allies push n0rthWard in Italy, we learn that Leghorn straws don't come from Legh0rn at all, but from small area near Florence,
 We also discover that the hat people though they view the war largely ID terms Of straws and bu1 braid and buDtal 6bers, still are taking what is known as the long view. The publication Hat Life" for ln' stance, states that "the things the hat trade wants most lie at the end of the long road " Japan itseIf" To which we outside the trade can say Amen,

Men of St. Dominic's

Some motion pictures are good boXoffice and good entertainment not particularly by virtue of any particular virtue, but be- cause of the appeal of certain stars or other qualities of the play presented. Going My Way" however, is an example of a good play with a good moral, senii- mental, but not tiresomely so, well di- rected, simple and wholesome. You might say it has come our way at a time when just such a fine wholesome play is most welcome; an antidote for the ear splitting and horrific scenes of war that confront you every time movies are at- tended
 1t has clicked with one and all. 1t is good, clean entertainment. It has humor and pathoS, and the episodes concerned with the almost defunct st. Dominic's are carefully done in the movie script. The priests are real figures from life. Everyone that attends the picture has known a Father O'Malley. a Father O'Dowd and, bless him, a Father FitZ- Gibbon. They are real persons which gives the picture it's value, and brings the highest praise from the most sophis- ticated and caustic reviewers.
 In passing it may be said Going My Way" is a presentation which deserves the most favorable comment, and happily it iy intelligent as well as nice entertain meDt for young and old. There is pleasure in the acting of the Well-liked Bing Crosby as Father O'Malley; many a chuckle in the chuckles of Father ODoWd; and delight not soon to be forgotten in the surer performance of Barry Fitzgerald, formerly of the unequalled Abbey Players, as Father FitzGibbOn.
