WE
the Women
BY RUTH MILLETT

The war has done for the teach
ers of one midwestern state what
they never were able to do for
themselves: 1t has freed them of
all the strings attached to their
jobs.
The state superintendent of pub
lie instruction has announced that
he hasn't seen a teaching contract
this year which specified that a
teacher must not smoke, dance, or
go out of town on week-ends. Such
clauses in teaching contracts in
that state used to be commoplane.
But the war-born scarcity of
teachers has put such fear into the
hearts CT even the most dictatorial
school board members that they
don't dare try to make applicants
sign contracts interfering with
their personal liberty.
All a teacher does now is PROM
ise to teach-and that Is exactly
as it should be. .s
There is no reason in the world
why a community should try to
tell teacher, any more than IT
would try to tell bank clerk, that
he can't smoke or dance.
WIN PERSONAL FREEDOM -. 49,
And because he has been hired to
teach history is no reason why the
community should expect him to
stay in town over week-ends SO that
he can take on a Sunday School
class and be seen at prayer meet
ing.
The teaching profession in the
past has lost lot of good teachers
just because they were indepen-
dent enough to resent having the
town tell them how to lead their
personal lives.
But the war has won personal
freedom for teachers-and If they
are smart enough to stick together
they can keep that freedom after
the war is over.

FOLLOW IN THIS WAR?

tanning what has been termed neutral.
1t has been a spectacular performance,
and the act continues. She may continue
to be able to hold out, but observers see
the pendulum staying put soon on one
swing or the other. The flying man on
the trapeZe has been outclaSsed; the
juggler surpassed while Germany and
the allies watch from the grandstands.
Literally the Turks have been under
pressure from the allies after there was
evidence of the Ottomans growing cool
in that direction and as Germany boast
ed, in a guarded manner of holding the
whip hand.
The squeeze came in withholding of
lend-lease by the United States and Brit
aims halting the flow of supplies to the
much bewildered nation.
A few days ago announcement was
made in Washington and in London that
the bars were being lifted, indicating that
once more there was a "pro-allied'
swing. But this did not last long. Now
Britain has cracked down, even harder
and with the new turn in events comes
some severe charges from London i'm
pugning the entire Turkish policy.
The most recent pronOuncement by
Turkish officials anent hesitancy in de-
claring war on Germany is their disin-
clination to be placed at war with Bull
garia, that nation being the only axis
country bordering on Turkey. Further
more, it was pointed out that they must
wait Russia's approval of declaration
inasmuch as the Muscovites still maintain
relations with the Bulgars. Another eX'
cuse, and which has considerable weight
was that she is not armed adequately to
wage war.
To this last named point, Britain
hardly can take issue since the delayed
invasion from the west waits on Just
that thing-adequate arms tc press on to
Berlin after overcoming Germany super
defended invasion coast.
Stating the matter as a fact, turkish
chiefs aver that Britain's shipments nave

LET it be known that the Turks have
boosted their original call for materlel.
AS to the status of lend-lease, Ankara
appears silent But there is little doubt
that this supply has been dwlndllng,
otherwise there would not have been
announcement of an increase IN recent
weeks.
Turkey also must step pretty much
tn Russia's tune. When Stain finishes
noIishing off the Germans and his whole
program of progress" is revealed, 1T can
be depended upon that he will have his
gateway from the Black Sea through the
Bosphorus and the Dardanelles. Ana
that would seem quite largely matter

SAN FRANCISCO, March 4. CUP)
Liquidation of the assets of the
S50000,000 state-seized Pacific
States Savings and Loan company
was halted at least temporarily
Saturday by state district court
of appeals ruling that such liquida-
ton by the California Building and
Loan commissioner is not justified.
Reversing a 1941 decision by Su-
perior Court Judge James G.. Con-
Ian of San Francisco, the appellate
court in a 81 decision announced
late yesterday held that the state
had been justified in seizing the
property five years ago today, but
that impairment of Pacific states
assets had not been sufficiently
proved to warrant liquidation. .
The court die not Immediately
remand the case to the lower courts
for retrial, although that action re-
mained possibility.

Termination Of contracts for certain
types of trainer planes long in use by
our army should be of considerable in
terest to Germany and Japan, for it un-
doubtedly means that the army now
foresees the of its air training period.
1t means that we have enough training
planes to prepare all the army fllerS
deemed necessary to do the job before
them This training program began in
tensively several years before we got into
the war, and it advanced as rapidly as
facilities and equipment could be provid
ed. Many of those who entered the
earlier pilot schools have died on dis
tant battlefronts. Those who have sur
vived are veterans of type of combat
in which death never is out of calling
distance.
But we have made progress. Our train
ing program has gained faster than our
manufacturing. Despite losses in the
flaming air battles, we have increased
the numbers of both planes and pilots.
Only the war department knows how
many of each we have, but it must be
enough. Otherwise, there would be no
cease and desist orders.
And if we have enough, it seems logi-
cal that we are about to use them for
the task before us. That is the only
reason for assembling such numbers and
quantities of personnel and materiel.
1t seems probable that change in the
seasons is all that is needed to unleash
our might against Germany and Japan.
This Germany has been able to guess for
some time, but Hitler has not known that
we believe we have enough pilots in
sight to blast him from the earth. The
army's announcement may be a very
small straw in the gales of war, but it
casts very dark shadow across Japan
and Germany.
Wherever American troops are located,
the Red Cross is there helping the wound
ed and operating canteens, recreation
centers and rest stations, assisting in the
hospitals and serving as guide, counselor
and friend of the soldiers.-General Mar

As We See It

 TYPICAL OF progress being made by unions without fanfare oF publicity is a report put out this week by President Fred w. Baer of the A. F. of L. Fire Fighters Union.
 So far this year, Baer said, the union has chartered locals in "A more fire departments; won a civil service law for firemen in Missis- sippi forced the reinstatement in the Milwaukee fire department of a war veteran who came back with medical disabilities, and rolled up many other gains.
 THE compositor on the Hinton (W. Va.) Daily NesUs had a sense of humor when correcting head- line:
 MISS LILLY IS MARRIED MISS LILLY IS MARRIED
 EMPLOYERS can't hide behind state anti-labor laws to deprive workers of rights guaranteed them under the Wagner Act.
 That bad news for sweatshoppers came this week from the National Labor Relations Board. Chairman H. A. Mills, supported by the Oth- CT two members of the board, held that the Wagner law is supreme in the field of labor relations and can't be Overridden by restrictive state statutes
 The boards significant decision was handed down in a case involv- ing the Eppinger & Russell Com pany, corporation processing for est products, with plants through out the East, including Jackson vile, Florida.
 As an alibi for refusing to deal with union that had been offici- ally certified as representing a majority of the company's Jack sonville employees, the management fell back on the fact that the un- ions business agent was not i- censed under provisions of vicious Florida anti-union law, passed by the last legislature.
 This refusal was branded by the board as an outright violation of the Wagner Act, and the company was ordered to bargain collectively with the union, regardless of the terms of the Florida law.
 "Any such state law must yield before the paramount authority of Congress expressed in a valid and applicable Federal law (the Wag- ner Act)," the board declared. eff the company's contention were ac- cepted, the result would be a nullification of the boards certi- fication. Such an interpretation would be contrary to the plain language of the Wagner Act and the many decisions of the courts cOnstruing it.''
