Look Who's
Talking

president Roosevelt has dealt
boldly and dramatically with
domestic problems. Recognizing
the failure of our society, as
organized, to adapt itself to new
conditions and to meet the i'm
perative needs of human beings,
he has effectively grappled with
the problem and has not hesi-
tated to break with tradition and
to alter fundamentally the en-
tire structure of our economic
order ;.
Few would seek to undo the
great social reforms he has
effected.
1--WE are entitled to expect a
like approach to the problem of
peace We have a duty to
urge upon our President that ne
dedicate to this great task his
outstanding qualities of leader
ship"
Who said this? Believe it or
not, it was JOHN FOSTER
DULLES, GOV. DEWEY'S FOR
EIGN RELATIONS ADVISER,
speaking before the Commission
to Study the Bases of Just and
Durable Peace in 194l.

delegates, voted 1872 to 375 to
continue the pledge. Voting
was according to the size OF
the locals, some delegates hav-
ing several votes.
The convention heard a state
ment from the director of the
production division of the Army
Service Forces lauding the "out-
standing contribution" of labor
in increasing production OF ur-
gently needed tires.
Outstanding Contribution
Labor has made an outstand-
ing contribution" Gen. Hugh I.
Minton of the ASF told the dele
gates, to the recent increase in
truck tire production. August
production was approximately
IA per cent above July, and
September production is con-
tinuing to show Improvement.
This quick response was call
ed bv Minton a splendid start in
meeting the urgently required
needs. Even with this, though,
Minton said that peak produc-
tion through the end of 1914
will not be able to meet Army
requests.
A thirty hour week for in
dustry after the war was urged
bv the delegates as a means OF
spreading employment.

the terms of the directive order
into effect. When the company's
decision became known to the
company employees, they again
walked out of the plant on
September IL.
When the walkout persisted,
Chairman VIM. Davis of the
NLRB wrote a letter to the
President who in turn requested
Secretary of War Stimson to
take over the plant. Actual TAX
ing over of the Sandusky plant
occurred this morning when Off
GERS of the war department
formally took charge of the
plant.
Asks Work Resumption
Col. Riebe Immediately issued
a statement to the Sandusky
newspaper requesting the men
to resume production. Wendell
Strong, President of Local 80,
UAW-CIO Immediately called a
meeting for this evening at
which time he said the men
would undoubtedly vote to re-
turn to work Immediately.
Long Dispute
The dispute between the COM
pany and Local $40, UAW-CIO
had its origin on August "a,
1943 when the dispute involving
maintenance of membership,
seniority and grievance clauses
and a rule regarding working
hours was certified to the NLRB
by the Secretary of Labor.
On March 18 of this year and
April /, the Regional War Labor
Board issued directives deter
mining the issues in dispute. The
company petitioned the NLRB
in Washington for a review of
the decisions which were upheld
by the Board in a directive of
July IL. The company refused
to accept the directive as modi-
fled by the NLRB.
When the company refused to
accept the orders and conform,
the UAW-CIO under Regional
Director Gosser of Toledo asked
the board to enforce its orders.

That Man Is
In Aqain

Novelist Louis Bromfield,
prophet of doom who predicted
famine for America, is still ped
ding the same kind of tripe-
enough to relieve any possible
shortage in that humble fare.
Obstinately, Americans didn't
starve in February as he told
them they would in a Readers
Digest article.
But they should have, Is
Bromfield's current thesis. And
you get the idea he's sorry they
didn't.
His prediction of catastrophe
was pinned on what he said was
the Administrations blundering
agricultural policies.
The only reason he didn't
guess right, says Bromfield in a
recent newspaper column, was
that the Administration was
lucky.
Oddly enough the Administra-
ton was lucky in 1912, also.
And although B o m field
writes further of government
blundering and that flood and
drought are raising their ugly
heads" this year, it looks as if
the Administration is going to
be '1ucky" again in 1914.
Official forecasts are for the
biggest wheat crop ever harvest
ed, near-record yields of corn,
oats, small grains, rice, peas,
beans, other vegetables, tobacco.
What a tremendous run of
luck!
It's the kind of luck that
doesn't just happen. You get it
only when you plan and work
for it as the government has
done.
We have an idea that, after
watching a master chess player
defeat an opponent by a series
of well-planned, skilfull moves,
Bromfield would walk up to
him and congratulate him-on
his luck.

rulings of the National Labor
Relations Board.

ence and intimidate workers.

4. They cause EMPLOYEES

many such supervisory en-

Call Upon BiddIe
Strongly condemning the ac-
tions of the corporations and
their officers and agents, the
UAW called upon the NLRB to

the Cleveland plants, and re-
quested the Attorney General to
institute grand jury investiga-

pirate action to be taken in the
event that the facts sustained

Women Press
WPB For More
Low-Cos+ Clothes

WASHINGTON, Sept. % -
OPA) - Housewives who have
been unable to buy decent
quality inexpensive house
dresses, or durable school cloth
ing for children, had their case
presented to Acting WPB Chair
man ]. A. Krug by spokesmen
for eight powerful women's or
CARNATIONS on September %.
Aroused especially by reports
that back o-school clothing was
simply off the store counters in
many communities, the women
urged Krug to take steps to
force reluctant textile manufac-
turers to stop producing luxury
textiles entirely, until the pres
ent shortage of low-cost goods
ends. AT least, this would give
the textile mills no excuse to
claim manpower shortages.
The complete supply Of all
standard fabrics should be al
located for production of urg-
ently-needed items, such as
house dresses, children's clothes
and work clothes, until the pres
ent shortage is relieved, Krug
was told.
The delegation was asked by
the WPB acting head whether
they would like to meet directly
with the Textile Industry Ad-
visory Committee. The women
told Krug they would welcome
the chance to tell the manufac-
turers the same thing they had
reported TO the WPB chief.

spectator.
To Continue Drive
Richard Gosser and union
officials indicated that the drive
for registrations was just begin
ming and that each day hundreds
of workers would go to the
Board of Elections during their
lunch hour to qualify them
selves for the fall elections. He
said, 1--WE didn't make the rules
that everybody would have to
come to the Board TO register.
The Board made the rules and
we are complying with them.
We asked the Board last year
and again this year to provide
us with places where we could
register our own people, but
we were turned down"
Police officials asked Mr.. Cos
ser to make arrangements to
have the entire 200 block on
Superior st. from Madison to
Jefferson reserved for parking
so the workers could park their
cars and register He indicated
that he would comply with their
request.
More than $50 men and wom-
er were registered on Tuesday
and Wednesday of this week
with every indication that this
number would be stepped up
daily until the Oct. 8 deadline
is reached.
Accuse Republicans
PAC officials are accusing
the Republicans of doing every
thing in their power to hold reg
istrations down. "The Republi-
cans are worried about a large
registration and vote" said
Chairman Clayton Rusch, they
seem to realize that when the
workers turn out in large num-
bers it doesn't do their cause
any good"
Mr.. Rusch again urged all
workers to register and pointed
to the efforts of the Republican
members of the Board to dis
courage them. Both he and
Mr.. GosSer said that the regis
trations would continue in in
creasing number until October 9
and warned the Board of Elec-
tionS to handle the situation as
speedily as possible.

ana director OI the Il. L. QuFOnC
and GIN totaled S315, ,280.
But there is more to the GM-
DUPONT story than cold cash.
There is conclusive evidence
that these corporations, who
heartily endorse Dewey have
been links in a continual anti
labor campaign.
The DUPONT company's record
is fairly clean. But since many
of its members direct GINS ac-
tivities, they bear equal respon-
sibility. The LaFollette Inves-
tigating Committee in 1887 un-
masked GINS anti-labor pro-
gram, revealing that between
1888 and 1886 GIN spent ONE
MILLION DOLLARS for indus
trial spies. Tear gas expense
during that period totaled close
to $4,000 while the National
Metal Trades Association, pro-
fessional labor breaking group,
rendered services worth $4,000.
Campaign Oratory
Dewey's statement that the
worlds raw materials should
be made available to all nations
is strictly campaign oratory
since DUPONT, one of his chief
hackers, is a principal defend
ant in an antitrust suit filed by
the government last January.
The suit was filed against the
Imperial Chemical Industries,
Ltd, the DUPONT company and
Lammott dupont in order to
dissolve an international chem
ical cartel.
The government suit further
charged that disruption of joint
operations between dupont and
&c, Farben-Industrie, Germany's
top chemical combination, was
smoothed over by duPont's as
surance that it intended to use
its good offices to have IG Far
bon participation restored.
Strange promises for Dewey
exponent to make to Americas
enemy!
While duPont's money talks,
he remains quietly behind the
scene. He makes no public
speeches, issues no bombastic
statements, but as the COPS
largest contributor there is no
doubt that his opinions are
strongly respected. Through
marital relationships, he has
built up personal representation
in all COP conclaves. Sen.
Clayton Buck of Delaware and
Republican National Committee
man, Harold Smith both mar
ried duPonts. In addition, Della
wares Republican National
Committeewoman, Mrs. Frank
Tallman, is the mother of one of
duPonts trusted employees. The
GIN tie is cemented by the Sc
lection of Arthur E. Summer
field, head of GINS Chevrolet
agency in Flint, as a Michigan
COP committeeman.
NAM Outlet
The COP dominated National
Association of Manufacturers is
secondary outlet for the du-
Pont political philosophy. And
since so many of the MANS
functions have been branded as
anti-labor Congressional
committee stated that it's Ma
tional Industrial Information
Bureau was organized to fore
stall union organization"-du-
Pont can hardly escape the anti
labor tag.
But his "anti' fooling doesn't
stop here. He's anti" tax and
"anti" government-minded too.
Speaking before the NAM in
1912, he said:
1--WE will win the war by re-
ducing taxes on corporations,
high income brackets and in
creasing taxes on lower in
comes, by removing unions from
any power to tell industry how
to produce by destroying any
and all government agencies
that stand in the way of free
enterprise"

Quartet Presents
Superb Program
1t the Library
BY ALICE EvERSMAN.

The Budapest String Quartet
placed but two works oY, its program
at the Library of Congress last night,
the major portion of the concert
time being given to Beethoven's
Quartet in A Minor, Op. 1872" The
second program in the Beethoven
string quartet series. played under
the auspices Of the Gertrude Clarke
Whittall Foundation, it stood as one
of the finest this famous group of
musicians has presented. Great unity
of thought, superb realization of the
spiritual qualities of the music and
purely musical conception of
splendid refinement marked this
concert as something special among
the many the Budapest players
have given.
The A minor quartet was COM
panioned by the first opus 18, thus
carrying out the program plan of
joining the first and last essays OF
the master In this form together.
The interest is heightened by this
arrangement for the pathway OF
development In structural mastery
and intellectual power Of the COM
poser can be followed easily.
The buoyant manner in which the
Quartet in F Major, Op. 18, No. /"
was played made its popularity at
its first hearings understandable.
At the same time, it remains a
marvel of what can be done with
ca fin, xrr,4 H.
notes Of theme, Beethoven's genius
and imagination have fiourished in
all their magnitude. The lovely
adagio, said to have been inspired
by the death scene of Romeo and
Juliet, was played with so feathery
a lightness and an underlying depth
of passion as to have the potency
OF the spoken word, while the
sparkling scherzo and blithe finale
employed the instruments in re-
markably balanced interplay.
Yet, with all its charm and ex-
uberance. the F. major quartet pales
beside the grandeur of that in A
minor, opus 1872. Written after a
severe illness, the Song of Thanks
giving" slow movement is supposedly
an indication that the work was in
the nature of a description of the
composers sickness and recovery
A theory, however, is unnecessary,
for the paean quality of the music
speaks for itself. The Budapest
artists surpassed themselves in the
Interpretation of this movement, the
organlike tones of the cello offsetting
the pure, ethereal color of the vio-
Inns. The sublimity and mystic
significance of this adagio and the
soaring joyousness of the closing
measures were depicted with COM
plete appreciation of their beauty by
the exalted mood of the performers.
The same program will be re-
peated tonight.
