LABOR FOR VICTORY"
GETS WOMEN'S OSCAR

New York City.-The National
Broadcasting ompany announced
that Labor For Victory" which is
conducted on alternate Sundays by
the AFL and CIO, has been placed on
list of recommended programs" by
the Committee on Better Radio Lis
tening of the San Francisco Bay
Branch Of the American Association
of University Women.
Labor is naturally pleased by this
endorsement from discriminating lis
teners. We suggest that central labor
unions which would like to have these
programs continued over their local
NBC stations write to these stations
and say so. If Labor for Victory is
not carried by your local NBC sta
ton, the Central Labor Unions should
prevail upon the station to put it on.

YANKS SURVIVAL
CHANCES BETTER

Washington, D. C. (ILNS) An
American soldier wounded in this war
has nearly twice as good chance to
survive as he did in the first World
War, the War Department reports.
A report of the Surgeon General
covering the period through Nov. 30,
1943, says that only 81 per cent Of
American wounded have died in this
war compared to 6.1 per cent in the
last war Improvement also is shown
in the general health of the American
soldier
Despite extensive operations in the
tropics which has increased the pro-
portion of overseas men requiring
hospital care for disease, the average
annual death rate overseas has been
0.5 per 900 men, or one man in 1000,
as against rate of 1913 per 1000
men during the last war.
In continental United States, the
report states, the death rate of sol
diers from disease is 0.6 per 1000
yearly as compared with rate in the
last war of 1916 per 1000 annually,
including deaths from the influenza
epidemic, and AZ per 1000 excluding
such deaths.

general tendency to let-down, with
man shortage as an excuse. Perhaps
juvenile delinquency is one of them.
1t is reasonable to say that if we
sickness and accidents, then we ought
to be hearing 100 times more protest
ing against the causes of sickness and
accidents than we hear about strikes.
But is it more dramatic to shout
about the evils of strikes. 1t gets more
and bigger headlines and it serves the
purposes of those who don't like
unions.
But it doesn't help turn out produc-
tion for war
We ought to have mass instruction
in how to keep we'll, how to know the
simple things to do in minor illnesses
that still cause lost time. We ought to
have more emphasis on accident pre-
vention. We have lot, but not
enough.
The Red Cross teaches thousands
upon thousands what to do after acci-
dents have happened. 1t could well
center heavier fire on what to do BE-
FORE they happen.
Labor itself should join more
whole-heartedly in crusade for
health and safety.
1t would be well to follow DR.. Steel
mans statement through 1943 and as
far as possible into 1914. How do we
stand today?
Here we have big field opened to
us. And it is an important field.
With fewer and fewer doctors and
nurses left among US, it is vital that
we know more and more how to dc
without them, up to the capacity of
the professional person.
Any such statement brings forth
howls of pain from some quarters, but
what of it?
That we keep our wheels of produc-
tion turning at top speed is more i'm.
portant than the petty yelps of selfish
persons.
Thanks to DR.. Steelman for point.

THE
CHERRY TREE
Where with our Little Hatchet We tell
J the truth about many things. sometimes
profoundly, sometimes aippantly, some
times recklessly.

There's an interesting and very i'm
portant statement in an article writ
ten by DIR. John R. Steelman in re-
cent issue Of Home Quarterly, a
Methodist publication. 1t is surprising
that unions haven't taken the facts
and spread them far and wide.
DIR. Steelman says that data avail
able for the first part of 1943 esti-
mates that 100 times more man days
were lost that month through sickness
and accidents than through strikes.
He points out that since Pearl Har-
Dor the man hours lost in the United
States through strikes have been less
than one-tenth of one per cent.
That, he declares is just that much
too much, whereupon he brings forth
th e statement relative to losses
through sickness and accidents.
We cannot discount the zone hun
dred times as many" and still have
far too much loss through sickness
and accidents. The fact is that there
isn't single cause of lost work time
that couldn't be reduced by intelligent
effort.
There probably isn't community
of any size that couldn't reduce its
sickness rate by intelligent commun-
ity health work.
Community sanitation is seldom
1000 good. Perhaps we had better
say it is never 1000 good
Nothing is SO precious at this hour
as good healthy man power.
Even the lack of man power for
municipal work is not sufficient ex-
cuse for some of the manifestations OF
bad community health work.
Our mind must not wander from
cleanliness Disease turks in filth. II
S easy to say that filth cannot be re-
moved because men have gone to war
Filth can be removed if authorities
are determined that it shall be done
