S5OO,OOO STRIKE LOSS

Baltimore, Nd. ILNS).-Now an
employer is using the War Labor Dis
putes Act, official name of the Smith
Connally anti-strike law, to sue la
Dor union for 100000 for alleged
strike losses.
The James Gibbons Co. of Relay,
Md, contractors engaged in work on
highways and airports, filed the suit
against an American Federation Of
Labor union, charging a strike Of en-
ployes had interfered with essential

5 MILLION IDLE SEEN
BY END OF 1916

Watertown, N. Y. (ILNS) .-Unem-
ployed workers are likely to reach a
total of 100000 before the end of
1915 because of the slowness of re-
conversion, if Germany is defeated
this year," John Cornell, editor and
co-publisher of the Paper Mill News,
told the Empire State Technical As
sociation of the pulp and paper in
dustry here.
Cornell added that general business
in 1945 would decline 25 per cent from
this years level because of $25,O00,-
100000 cut in war expenditures. He
went on:
Moreover, in spite of the national
debt, higher costs and strong back
log of consumer demand, which will
result in higher prices in the immedi-
ate postwar period, there is no like
lihood of postwar imitation in this
country"

Texas Labor Case To Be
Reargued In Supreme Court

Washington, d. C. (ILNS).-The
Supreme Court has ordered reargu-
ment in the fall of the case in which
R. j. Thomas, president of the United
Automobile Workers, CIO, challenges
the constitutionality of the Texas law
requiring registration OF labor organ
izers before they solicit members.
Thomas was arrested in Texas for
making speech in which he asked a
man in the audience named O'Sullivan
to join the CIO. Thomas had gone to
Texas especially to test the constitu-
tionality of the law.
The court suggested that the De-
partment of Justice file brief in the
case clarifying the implications and
applicability of the Texas law, and
specified questions on which it de-
sired comment.

their viciousness will react in his
favor.
Apparently, and we get this idea
from reading those same daily news
papers, it's perfectly all right for
newspapers, influenced of course by
the wishes of their biggest advertisers,
to hammer FDR and blame him for
every catastrophe from Pearl Harbor
to the weather, but it is net all right
for a labor group to spend money for
a counter purpose.
Every intelligent voter in this coun-
try knows that money means votes in
a national political campaign. The
amounts contributed to both major
parties in past campaigns is an indi-
cation that Big Business knows how
to win elections. But our newspapers
seem to believe that only the wealthy
big shots should enjoy the privilege of
using money for this purpose.
The AFL policy of hands off is, we
believe, the best in the long run. But
at the same time, we can see no vio-
lation of law if labor organization
follows the same program as the U.
S. Chamber of Commerce and puts
its finances behind its favorite candi-
date.
What's sauce for the goose may
choke the gander, but who made the
rules, anyway?

A LABOR LADY RETIRES

Miss Mary Anderson, for 25 years
chief of the Women's Bureau of the
u. S. Department of Labor, is retir-
ing, and will receive a civil service
annuity, probably the first high labor
government executive to enjoy this
benefit bestowed on federal employees
through the efforts of organized labor.
Miss Anderson leaves behind her a
record of achievement of which she
and organized labor can well be proud.
Her bureau has accomplished recogni-
tion for women in industry, has
achieved the goal of equality in condi-
tions and pay for working women, and
has practically freed them from ex-
ploitation in many trades, and has
seen them now employed in industries
undreamed of when she assumed her
Office in 1918.
Mary Anderson came here from
Sweden when about years of age.
She later found employment in shoe
factories and became interested in la
Dor organization with the Boot and
Shoe Workers Union. Her sincerity
and outstanding intelligence earned
her appointment to head the U. S.
Women's Bureau, and she can now re-
tire with the satisfaction of knowing
that her job was well done.
Miss Anderson is succeeded by an
other woman who has earned recog-
milton for her good works for women
in industry-Frieda S. Miller. Miss
Miller in one lifetime has accom-
plished more than one mortal usually
expects. In New York State she ad-
vanced step by step from the bottom
and reached the top. Her recent job
of advisor to our State Department in
London equipped her as natural for
the successor of Miss Anderson, with
many years ahead of her to serve the
the cause of working women.
Women workers can consider them
selves fortunate in having two such
leaders to lead through the maze of
industrialism, to point out the pitfalls
and bring measurable justice to all of
them.

EISENHOWER THANKS
ALL AFL WORKERS

Washington, D. C.-In response to
a cablegram informing Gen. Dwight
D. Eisenhower that all AFL workers
were on the job throughout the coun-
try following D-Day and were deter
mined to back up the armed forces to
the limit, President William Green re-
ceived the following cabled reply from

u. S. Maritime Commission has au-
thoi'ized the naming of a Liberty ship
for the late E. G. Hall, president OF
the Minnesota State Federation of
Labor for 80 years.
The dedication was made possible
by bond purchases totaling $2,800,00O
made by unions affiliated with the
Minnesota State Federation in the
Fourth War Loan. To qualify for the
dedication of a Liberty ship to labor
leader, the sponsoring unions must
buy at least $2,OO0,OOO worth of

CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS

Some of our daily newspapers and
many of our leading politicians are
concerned with the intention of the
CIO Campaign Committees plan to
use money in the coming presidential
election. They are particularly irked
because of the CIO has declared for
rejection of FDR for fourth term.
They insist something should be done
about it.
These same newspapers have no
hestitancy in declaring their opposi-
tion to reelection of FDR, and some of
them go entirely overheard in their
nasty digs to defeat him. Every day,
day after day, their stats of special
writers and cartoonists villify FDR
without, apparently, realizing that

COMMENT ON WORLD EVENTS

TN speech to Americans in London
i Lord Lyttelton so far forgot him
self as to declare that the United
States Government provoked Japan
into the war, which of course was fol-
lowed by a declaration by Hitler. This
little British big shot was blaming the
u. S. for saving England from fas-
cism.
Our daily newspapers, of of which
gave big headlines to his unfortunate
remarks, have discreetly refrained
from editorially commenting on them.
Lytellton is a big shot, with many
friends among our own big shots, who
spend much money for space in our
newspapers.
Every American, however, knows
that Japan attacked Pearl Harbor
without provocation, without justifi-
cation and with little assurance of
ultimate victory. This little British
lord can't erase the obloquy of that
sneak attack, even if he is disap-
pointed because German and Japan
will be compelled to surrender uncon-
ditionally. He and his fascist sympa-
thizers can confer with Hess, who flew
to England to confer with them-and
failed.
We hear a lot about labor strikes
holding up war production and COM
placency on the part of American civil
ians but such speeches as his and
subversive columns by our newspaper
and radio commentators do more
harm to civilian and army morale
than anything working people might
do. He and people like him should
keep in mind the fact that Hitler
would still be a paperhanger without
their support.
A committee of physicians has re-
ported adversely on the treatment ad-
vocated by Sister Kenny, Australian
muse, for infantile paralysis. They find
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1944-07-07

it without merit, and, from past ex-
perience that is the end of it in this
country. Without support from the
American Medical Association it is
blacklisted.
Sister Kenny was nurse in a re-
mote Australian colony; found her
self confronted with a poliomyelitis
epidemic without benefit of physi-
clans; evolved a treatment which
saved the lives of many patients; and
then came over here by invitation to
demonstrate. And she did demonstrate
at least to the satisfaction of the pa
tents.
But Sister Kenny's treatment plays
down the Importance of physicians in
the treatment of infantile paralysis,
and this of course is objectionable.
She is mere nurse, and important
discoveries in the medical field are still
the undisputed domain of members of
the ANA. She overstepped and has
been slapped down. She will probably
go back to Australia and continue to
save lives of the victims there while
ours succumb.
When you read in daily papers
about the alleged arrogance of Amer
ican trade unions, just keep in mind
that jurisdictional disputes are not
confined to unions, or even bar asso-
cations Even the medics think about
ethics.
Thousands of American workers
have discovered how they can per-
sonally bag some Zeros. And they do
it right in their own plants! They
resolve that on their job there shall
be no unnecessary absenteeism, no ac-
cidents, no unnecessary spoilage, no
letdown in the quality of their work.
That's mighty important string of
Zeroes-just as vital to victory as
planes knocked down on the war front.

world safeties and world fears.

world safeties and world fears.
You can be sure that what Japan
already has got is just sample of
'the shape of things to come"
And of course, the BIO isn't the
limit. Bigger ones will come.
But, let it stand at the B-29-the
battleship of the air, the super
fortress.
Project the B-29 into peace times.
We can reach any ''bad boy in the
world. We can by then, if need be,
send a fleet of thousand-a thousand
battleships-to drop their lethal eggs.
That's prospective destruction for
those who will not walk in the paths
Of peace.
If fear of punishment is what
makes good boys out of bad boys,
we've got the answer. 1t is WE who
have that answer.
Used in the ways of peace, we have
the pattern of the plane of tomorrow,
to carry its great loads of people here
and there and to carry enormous loads
of freight to better the lots of all
peoples.
Many thing that never went into
commerce will go into the air-borne
commerce of the postwar time.
The B-29 is a truly revolutionizing
instrument
Those who would look forward must
do so with such things in mind.
Many things new will come out of
this war, but of them all perhaps none
will so change the ways of peoples as
the BIG.
1t "fies through the air with the
greatest of ease" and with an enorm-
Gus weight that can be either the
weight of destruction or the freight
of happiness.
1t looks from here as if other ma
tions can have it either way they
want it.
If we should end this war with ma
tions wanting still more wars, then
the B-29 can be sent on parade to let
the great bulk of its shape and the
great spread of it's wings and the tre-
mendous bulk of it's weapons have its
educating effect upon them.
Here are the guns that can bark
around the world, wherever the need
may arise.
Up to this time the B-29 doesn't
seem to have created much excite
ment
1t may be that its effect is so tre-
menduus that it takes time to "sink
in" on the consciousness of people.
But, ladies and gentlemen, wake up
to the immense significance of this
new super-ship of the air.
1t is much more than merely what
meets the eye. 1t is what sinks into
the minds of men like the Japanese
and the Germans and all others who
may have sinister designs on the
peace Of the world.
We alone possess that weapon to-
day. Others may make like ships, but
when they do we shall again be long
leap ahead.
We are masters of the air-or war
or for peace. WE have no ulterior mo-
tives, no evil designs.
The B-29, magnificent plane, is as
as the first armor clad bat
tleship perhaps more so. Watch it.
