'Scab' Print Shop NowUsingJapsIn War rWith'Typos'
Big Donnelley Firm Train ing Nipponese To Displace
 American Workers

Printing trades unions, which have been trying to organize the hard-boiled R. R. Donnelley plant in Chicago for many years, were up in arms this week over new Donnelley '::union-busting'' scheme the use of ''relocated'' Japanese to freeze out bona fide uniOnists'
 Donnelley's, which has force O1 4,5OO men and women, is the larg' est non-union printing plant in the world. It prints ''Time'', Life Readers Digest'' and other pub lications.
 For nearly 30 years, up to the pas sage of the Wagner Act, it main tained a vast blacklist" to keel union members out of its plant. Ever after enactment of the law, 1t con- tinued anti-union tactics. A few weeks ago National Labor Relations Board examiner found the company guilty of using labor spies and other means to discourage unionism. He urged the board to issue a "cease and desist" order against the manage ment.
 In a desperate new effort to offset the inroads of unionism, the Don nelley firm has now resorted to re- cruiting of Japanese, with the gov ernment's help, the International Typ ographical Union charged this week
 ''Now when the campaign to or. ganize the Donnelley workers has progressed to the point where sue. cess is within sight, the government (yOur government) rushes rein. forcements into the non-union Don. nelley camp," protested the unions organ, the Typographical Jour. nall"
 Believe 1t or not, the Donnelley concern has been 'allocated' several hundred relocated Japs who will be iniltrated into Donnelley production departments and trained to displace American workmen and women"
 SpOkesmen for the War ReIoca. ton Authority in Washington de. nied the agency ''aIlocates" the Japanese to anyone but they said that when an employer seeks Japa. nese from relocation" centers for jobs, the W. R. A. facilitates such hiring.
 However, Nicholas Di Pietro, chairman of the organizing cam. paign of the printing trades unions at Chicago, declared that whether allOcated or not, some of them are in Donnelley's already.''
 Di Pietro added that despite all the anti-union moves of the company steady advances have been made il organizing Donnelleys employees land the time will come when our banner will fly over that plant"
 The union would make faster head way, he said, were it not for the 'in- tolerable delays" of the National War Labor Board which for 1e months has held up a decision on a dispute between the union and Don nelley's.

TheStory Behind 'Bomb-By-Bomb' : Attack Of Naziis
Great Recording By George Hicks Gets National
 Attention

HOLLYWOOD-That bOmb-by- bomb account of a Nazi air attack on a convoy off the invasion coast gave radio listeners the first thrill of l944-style war reporting. It was the matter-of-fact voice of George Hicks: s'Flares are coming down. :. Here's very heavy ack-ack. :" Then the battle talked for itself for what seemed nearly a minute. "WeH," Hicks came in, ''that's the first time we shot our gun. Right over our heads. .o
 Cant report any hits," he ad- mitted. Then he told us: Something burning is falling down from the sky and circling down :. may be a hit plane. D Gunhre and explosions drowned him out Suddenly Hicks cried: 'Here we go. :. They got one They got one! Just off our port side in the sea. :"
 He wound up with: Tt is now 10 past l2. 1 will now return you to the United States"
 Some of the Blue network men in Hollywood were annoyed because Hicks wasn't air-credited as a Blue correspondent Also because the rival CBS was first to get his 15-minute report on the air
 However, Hicks is one of l2 an- nouncers in the European Theatre ] of Operations. Whichever one gets the breaks on a spot description, the result is credited to the Com bined American network. This pool protects NEG, CBS, Blue. Mutual. Their men will be drawn in rota- ton to keep the radio reporting force in the ETO at 12-man strength.
 If you didn't catch it on the air, you'll hear a reasonable facsimile sooner or later in the movies. Studio sound experts at once recognized that here was gospel for real battle sound effects. Every Hollywood studio has acquired transcription of the first Hicks report for reference.
 How it's done: Hicks, talking cas- ually off the French coast about what he saw from a destroyer tower that night wasn't piping his remarks di- rectly into a broadcast station. He was making a record on the spot. Naturally he wasn't carting around a turntable with a spinning slab or virgin wax on 1t either.
 Field announcers in the ETO carry a wire recorder as standard equipment. The sound-recording

Shortage Studied
 BySurvey Of WIPE.

The War Production Board went out recently to find what Mrs. Ameri- can Housewife needed most and couldn't purchase in the stores.
 Among the most severely short items, with only enough around to meet a third or less of the demand, are the old wash boiler, alarm clocks, window screening, garbage cans and wash tubs
 In this class also are radio tubes, can openers, extension cords for cleo trical appliances and double boilers.

Shorten and smoother the road to victory by buying War Bonds.
The Southern Jewish weekly. [volume] (Jacksonville, Fla.) 1939-1992, 1944-09-01

Our mood during this Holy Day
season will be multiform. There
will be rejoicing for the achieve
ments of our armed forces, ov-
erWhelming relief that termina-
ton of war is not too far distant
as we'll as grief for the sons and
husbands who will not return.
There will be the pleasurable
thought of Europe freed from
tyranny as well as mourning for
our brethren who will enjoy the
fruit of victory. There will be
hopeful yearning for society to be
free, prosperous, and congenial as
we'll as the not undeserved anxiety
that the world will not be wiser
for all its sacrifice. Joy and sor-
row, confidence and frailty,
strength and faltering will abide
together.
1t cannot be otherwise. It should
not be otherwise. We cannot lose
sight of our victories or of the
pain with which they were achiev-
ed or of the reservations which
alone will justify the pain and
make the victories worthwhile.
Rosh Hashonah will find us giving
thanks to God for turning back
the tide that almost enslaved the
democratic world. It also will find
US searching our souls, Christening
our spirits, purifying our hearts
in the attempt to channel the tide
for the victory that is complete
and cumulative of the God to whom
we pray.
May the year that is to come
continue in greater measure the
joys and the triumphs that 57O4
initiated. May our sadness and
anxiety be dispelled as light and
peace cover the earth.

THE MOOD OF HOLY DAYS
WILL BE MTUTTFORM
BY RABBI LEONARD ]. MERVIS
Temple Bethel, Pensacola. Florida

AS l contemplate these words
Of greeting in anticipation of the
New Year, the war in Europe
races toward a decision. Perhaps
when we assemble on the Day of
Memorial, the European chapter
OF the world catastrophe will have
ended. Perhaps by Rosh Hashonah
we shall not see, but we shall
know the fate of the Third Reich
If this be true we shall have
more than usual cause for pray
er and thanksgiving. Even if on
the High Holy Days Germany
continues to give battle, all of us
will be grateful that in the year
that as past there have occurred
the decisive events that will &C.
casion the downfall of Hitlerism,
the liberation of Europe, and the
eclipse of the Rising Sun.
The Southern Jewish weekly. [volume] (Jacksonville, Fla.) 1939-1992, 1944-09-01
Sen. Claude Pepper
Sends Greetings

All of us look with joy to the
coming victory of freedom over
tyranny. But to the Jews, the
worst victims of Hitler's vicious
persecution, the victory will bring
immeasurable joy. It must be the
task of us all when we have won
the war to set up such strong
International organization and
world opinion that never again
shall gangster nations be able to
curse the earth as have the dicta-
tors of recent years. We must in
the future recognize that perse-
cution of men anywhere endang-
ers the liberty of men everywhere.
Only by universal recognition of
the dignity of man can we have
the security of man.
To the Jewish people therefore,
I bring not only words of consola-
ton, but of encouragement. I
bring also words of challenge. We
must not again fail to assure Sc
curity and peace to all men every
where.

SukOS Falls On
October 2 9

The Biblical Feast of Sukos
(Booths) will be celebrated for
eight days, October End to 9th
and in Orthodox synagogueS for
nine days.
The festival is of ancient origin
but in its modern form combines
many ideas. The most character
istic feature is the injunction that
every Israelite should dwell in
booths for eight days.
Today the festival is observed
as a thanksgiving-day and har-
vest feast. While many families
erect booths for the period, it Isl
also customary to place them on
the premises of the synagogue,
where reception is held after the
services.
Details concerning the observ-
ance in the local synagogues may
be obtained from the rabbis in
your city.
