overlooked in appraising strikes the proximate cause
of which is always decision to stop working on the
part of employees But the act of employer which
provokes the decision to stop working may be no less

Smith Committee BackingDrive To Clip Workers
Virginian Employs Pressure Tactics To Force O.P.A.
 To Weaken Rent Control

PrOfit-hungry landlords have launched another drive to high pressure the Office of Price Admin istration into breaking down its rent control program.
 The opening gun is to be fired by a special House committee, headed by Congressman Howard w. Smith, re- actionary Virginian and large prop erty owner.
 Smith has called hearings and de- ciares he intends to "rake OPA of- fficlals over the coals."
 The object is to get the OPA to repeal or modify regulations to per- init landlords to demand Security deposits" from tenants-in other words, to demand prepayment of rent in excess of OPA ceilings.
 The OPA declares it was com pelled to outlaw this practice because 1t was being used as a means of evad- ing rent ceilings and was theatening the success of the control program.
 If OPA were to submit to the de- mands of the Smith committee, it would result in the payment over a

The Sheet Metal Workers this week crushed an attempt by "com- pany union" to stage a comeback on the Maine Central.
 The dummy" union was busted from that craft, as well as three others, several years ago. Recently it claimed it had won back a majority and induced the National Mediation Board to hold an election. When the votes were counted, the dummy" was swamped by an overwhelming ma jority.

No-Strike Pledge Held Superior To
 Act Of Congress
War Labor Board Contends Smith, Connally Law Doesn't Legalize
 Walkouts

The War Labor Board this week took the unusual position that labOr's voluntary 'nO-strike' pledge is of greater force than an act of Congress prescribing procedure that must be followed before a strike may be legally called.
 The finding was in connection with a decree penalizing local unions of the Brotherhood of Carpenters at seven Midwest plants They had called strikes last August to enforce de- mands on employers.
 While acting favorably on a number of the unions demands, the board denied the mainten- ance of membership and check-off of dues for six months. At the end of the probationary period, the board, said, the unions may come back and petition for reinstatement of these rights.
 Industry members of the Board joined in the finding, but labor mem bers vigorously dissented, contending the majority read into the law some thing that was not there.
 The August strikes were called after 30 days notice to the National Labor Relations Board, as required by the Smith Connally Act. The walkouts were authorized and directed by international officers of the Car

 The War Labor Board, however, contended that the Smith-Connally Act "did not place the stamp of ap- proval upon, strikes in wartime" It simply permits workers to go through all the preliminaries leading to a strike vote, after which they are left hanging in the air, the Board said.

Attorney General
 Stresses Great Need
By Francis Riddle

United States Attorney General
 There are many troublesome sit nations in our democratic society which our laws cannot reach. Too often we try to force a veXatiOus social problem to solution by means of legislation. Prejudice and intolerance, for example, can no more be legislated against than any other form of human weak ness. We can prosecute the dis seminators of libelous or seditious literature or the inciters to mob violence, but no law and no pun ishment can repair the warped mind either of those who commit such acts or are responsive to such ideas.
 Often education and example will achieve what laws cannot accomplish and to perform that service the Amer ican Labor Movement is exceptionally well fitted An opportunity unparal- 1eled in history is now presented to serve the cause of democracy in this country. It is an opportunity which labor can seize and exploit, at the same time doing much to disprove. the claim of some that labor is incapable of rising to its full social responsl- Eility.
 All but the most stubborn op- timist will admit that the war has emphasized racial strife. Popula- tions have become mixed along un- familiar lines as they have been uprOoted and compressed into Overcrowded war centers, and ecO- homie barriers which through long usage had acquired a rigid in- viOlability have been forced open. Many ancient prejudices have smOIdered anew and at times they have burst into violent flame. We cannot ignore this intolerance nor the consequences it holds for our future security.
 American trade unions can do more to thwart evil consequences of this nature than any other group in our so- ciety. It is the working men and women of the country who are in daily bodily contact with the issue Of intolerance. They meet it at the level where distrust, resentment, and vlo- 1ence foment It Is within their power tt stamp out the fire before 1t spreads. By passive inaction they only help to fan it into full flame.
 If within their own ranks and organizations, American unionists will take the lead in opening the door of opportunity to all workers regardless of color or creed, they will do much to remove the arti- ficial barriers that are erected against Negroes, Jews, and other minorities who are denied their rightful privileges.
 A cloak of union protection around the shoulders of all honest workers regardless of their religion or their racial antecedents will strengthen the very foundations of tolerance in our country.
 The working community is the base of our social and economic structure. Ii it decrees that intolerance must go, the rest of our society can do little other than to acquiesce. No law or other measure of force can be so sue cessful in destroying this evil seed as the moral determination of the American working man.
 This is a challenge which the labor movement can face with the double assurance that it is worthy and that it can be victorious.

Slightly Exaggerated

SAN DIEGO, Calif.-When Pvt. Melvin D. Miller, member of Local 1296, United Bro. of Carpenters & Joiners (A.F.LD, came back to town recently he created something of a commotion. Eighteen months ago Miller was reported killed in action. Going around to see his former union buddies, he assured them that the report was somewhat exaggerated.

short period of $4OO,OOO,OOO above maximum rents, OPA officials said.
 They denied that security deposits" are necessary to protect landlords against damage done by war workers.
 "This is a scurrilous attack against the patriotic war worker who has up- rooted himself and his family to make an essential contribution to the war effort" an OPA official said.
 ''Such a statement comes with poor grace from landlords who are attempting to exploit the emerg- ency by evading the rent control laws and keeping essential war workers from moving to critical war jobs by charging prohibitive security depOsits'!"

and a woman companion, Miss Fun
ice Morris, 35, of Elkton, injured

Col. Henry S. Barrett, State Com

has issued directive in which he
states emphatically that "The Air
Raid Warning Sirens or Systems will
not be sounded for any demonstra-
ton" on vi Day. "V-1 Day. is only
the first phase of our final victory,
inasmuch as we will still have the
Japs to finish off. Sirens, therefore,
will continue to be used solely for aid
raid warnings and fire signals as
heretofore.
Col. Barrett says "To many of us,
this occasion whenever it happens
at what time nobody knows-will be
very solemn occasion, and my per-
sonal opinion is that instead of SO
much jollification at this time we
should offer up prayer of thanks to
Almighty God for our deliverance
from the first enemy"
Chiefs of Fire Services and Senior
Wardens will please take note of this
directive. 1t will be great tempta-
ton to use the sirens for celebration,
but this must not be done.

MEALS FOR SCHOOL CHILDREN

At this season when school days
place additional burdens upon young
and growing bodies DR.. R. H. Riley,
Director of Health, considers an ade-
quate diet especially important. He
cites a recent statement of the Nu-
tritionist of the State Department Of
Health concerning the need for whole
some and well balanced meals.
Maryland schools are open and
parents must again plan suitable
meals to help keep their children in
good physical condition.
"An adequate breakfast should be
included to give the youngstere a
start in the morning A bowl of whole
grain cereal with milk, piece of
fruit or glass of fruit juice, a cup of
cocoa or milk, and an egg at least
four times week will provide one
third of his daily food requirements.
A child not provided with breakfast
at home will probably eat his packed
lunch on the way to school, or spend
lunch money for inadequate foods.
MANY children buy lunches at
school when available. School author
tiles are now more interested in pro-
viding an adequate lunch for a nomi-
nal cost and are beginning to look up
on the school lunch program as an
educational feature of the health pro-
gram. A packed lunch carried in a
box or basket can also be nutritious.
Soup, cocoa or milk can be carried in
a thermos bottle and tomatoes, cell
cry, carrot strips, or turnip strips
can be wrapped in wax paper. Using
whole wheat bread, or one slice of
whole wheat and one of enriched
bread, a delicious variety of sand
wickes can be made with peanut but
ter, ground vegetables, eggs, cheese
meat or fish filings.
after school a youngster who is
hungry-and most of them are
should be given piece of fruit or a
sandwich and milk.
Supper is usually the main meal
of the day. 1t should include: a meat
or substitute, as soybeans, peas,
cheese. eggs, chicken or fish; two
vegetables, one potato and one green
or yellow; whole grain bread with
butter or enriched margarine; and
dessert, as good old fashioned rice
pudding or molasses gingerbread.
