Red Cross Offers Pointers on
Christmas Gifts for Gls Abroad

Other items suggested to fill out
the girls GI's package are cleansing
tissues, soap leaves, coat hangers,
clothesline and pins Gravel type),
and flashlight.
A good choice for the pipe-smoking
man (besides, of course, pipe) would
be moisture proof tobacco pouch.
Tobacco and cigarettes usually are
obtainable, or are supplied by the
Red Cross.
Whether your gift box is for a man
or woman, few simple rules apply:
1t should contain nothing that you
would not want if you were travelling
or camping.
Candy, gum or salted peanuts
should be sent in alright tins.
Fruit cake should not be sent to the
tropics, and for other areas it should
be packed in an alright tin.
Your package may enclose simple
greeting, and the outside may bear a
"Do not open until Christmas" label.

Washington, d. C.-What to pack
in Christmas boxes for shipment to
service men and women in foreign
countries is suggested in list drawn
up by Red Cross workers who have
been overseas with troops and who
have learned what is most useful and
most welcome.
Books head the list of "best buys"
in Christmas gifts, preferably pocket
editions. Mysteries and adventure
stories are most popular. A windproof
cigarette lighter would be a good
choice, Red Cross workers advise,
since this item often is lost or be-
comes worn out.
Mailing dates for Christmas pack
ages for overseas delivery are Sep
tember 15 to October Is. Size must
be no more than Is inches in length,
or SO inches in length and girth COM
bined. When ready to mail, the pack
age should weigh no more than five
pounds.
Durable shower slippers-canvas is
suggested highly useful. Writ
ing portfolio and fountain pen would
be welcome, and both should be of a
simple type. A pocket size folder
enclosing one or more snapshots of
the family is suggested.
If something on grander scale is
desired, waterproof, shockproof
watch is practical if the CT doesn't
own one. Red Cross workers say an
item that will go over big is dog
tag chain Of silver or other non-tar-
nishable metal. They also suggest an
unbreakable mirror Of a size large
enough to be useful. A pocket comb
could be tucked into any box.
Pocket-size games, sheet music,
playing cards, harmonica or ocarina
would contribute to the soldiers off
duty entertainment.
For the girl in service, personal
gadgets are good only if they are
practical. Her favorite cosmetics are
a good gift if packed in unbreakable,
leak-proof containers. Rouge, lip
stick, powder, nail polish and polish
remover, and a small quantity of her
favorite perfume are on the Red Cross
list.
CT Jane could probably use a pair
Of soft bedroom slippers and simple
housecoat, which should be seersucker
if she is in the tropics. Bobby pins,
a sewing kit or toilet kit might go
into her package. Hose should be en-
cased in cellophane to resist insects.
For the Pacific islands and Australia
bathing suit and cap are suggested.
Any undergarments, such as slips or
panties, sent to that theater should
be of cotton, since ants eat rayon.

NO SUBSTITUTE
FOR JOB, LYDEN
TELLS LEGIONNAlRES

-"There is no substitute
for a job" Michael ]. Lyden, presi-
dent Of the Ohio State Federation Of
Labor, told the war conference of the
American Legion, department of
Ohio, at Memorial hall, here Aug
ust 21.
He told the Legionnaires that the
Federation Of Labor was deeply con-
cerned with rehabilitation plans, and
said that labor intended to cooperate
with their organization in all en-
deavors for the benefit of veterans.
Labor wants free enterprise" Ly-
den told the Legionnaires, "but labor
insists that our productive system be
committed to the progressive raising
of the national income and the main
tenance of full employment.
"Such a system is necessarily op-
posed to all monopolistic tendencies
toward restriction. We want free en-
terprise, but we also want an economy
which will provide ample support of
health, educational, recreational and
similar public services so essential to
the welfare of the working people in
our industrial society.
Finally, we want a program of
economic enterprise which will not be
repressive, but will support the free
exercise of civil and political liber-

AFL BACKS BILL FOR
SAFE DISPOSAL OF
u. S. PROPERTY

Washington, D. C.-The American
Federation of Labor endorsed the
Johnson-C Colmer Bill providing for the
orderly disposal of surplus govern
ment property during the postwar
period and preventing any dumping
of such supplies as would dislocate
established business and impair en-
ployment opportunities.
However, the Federation urged that
the bill be amended to obtain admin
istration of the disposal program by
a board made up Of public, labor, in
dustry and farm representatives, in
stead of single administrator.
All of these groups have vital in
terests at stake in the way surplus
government property is released and
therefore should have a voice in the
administration of the program, the
AFL pointed out.
In statement sent to the Senate
Military Affairs subcommittee which
is considering the proposed legisla-
ton, AFL President William Green
said:
at is obvious that, with a posi-
bility that billions of dollars worth of
governmental plant facilities, equip
ment and products will remain undis-
posed of at the end of the war, some
means must be provided, through the
government, of making the necessary
disposal Of these properties. Such
disposal must, of course, seek to OBJ
tain the highest possible return for
the government, the most effective
use of plant facilities, and the ad-
vancement of our economy generally,
but must avoid dislocations of estab-
lished businesses and impairment of
employment opportunities.
at cannot be denied that the dis
tribution of surplus goods and the
granting of the use of government
plant facilities to private enterprise
can and should be done only with the
exercise of great care that the inter-
ests of all who might be affected
thereby are protected-the worker, in
his employment opportunities; the
farmer, in making available to him
agricultural implements, togeth n
with an adequate market for his pro-
duce; and finally the public, in that
the entire domestic economy is main
tained at level which permits full
production and use of plant facilities
and full employment opportunities,
together with the highest possible re-
! turn to the government for the dis
posed of property. It is important,
then, that extreme care and caution
be utilized in the disposition of sur
plus materials, goods and plant IA
cilities, and that in such disposition
the interests Of those directly af-
fected be consulted"
