Con we DO Business"
With Post-Wo Europe?

We are not of those people who believe that war problems will end
when the Axis is finally destroyed. On the contrary, we re convinced
that new problems will then arise that will test the unity of what is now
called the United Nations"
Britain, as Mr.. Churchill frankly declares, will not consent to the
liquidation of her empire. But what will the natives of Brhans far
flung domain think and do about a return of British rule? How en-
Enthusiastically will the. orientals welcome the return of the Dutch? And,
more important perhaps, what will China think when the British return?
Russian influence and prestige will be enhanced throughout Europe,
and especially in that vast section of Slav occupied territory known as
Middle Europe. And how will the British and the Americans view an
expansion of Communism?
Will the United Nations be able to remain united after the diSap-
pearance of the common danger that has united the Soviet Union with
tremendously if victory finds it half Capitalist and half Communist?
Can a capitalist America continue to "do business with a Com
munist Europe?
We don't belcv it. The reason w doubt is because the essence of
capitalism is competition and profit, while within the limits of the Soviet
sphere the central theme will be planning and service. There is a con-
tradicion there that hints at new aignments as well as new conflicts,
and ways of life with which a capitalist economy can neither compete
nor unite.
What we see as a possibility strengthens our conviction that the
best thing for America to do NOW would be to scrap its own profit
economy and institute a system of production for use. We emphasize
the NOW" because we are speaking to the American people and be-
cause we hope that the change from a system of competition and profit
to one of cooperation will be made democratically-and also because
we believe that unless it is done denocratcally NOW the change will
be forced upon us in a few years under circumstances which will find
individuals less free than they are today.
A Socialist America could deal with a totalitarian Europe if that
happens to become necessary. Or, it could refrain from dealing com
merciaIly with the rest of the world for quite a long time without
lowering the standard of American material well-being; which is some
thing that a capitalist economy could not do
Already, within a single generation, we have suffered from two
wars because the world has refused to scrap a economy that no longer
serves human needs. Why not prepare for the peace we are hoping
70 have by putting our own house in order while the war is still being

IBANEZ RETALIATES
TO PROVIDERS
CRITICISM

Washington, ID. G. - Bernardo
Ibanez, general secretary of the
Chilean Confederation of Labor, in
a letter to friends in this country,
charged that Communist leader
Earl Browder was guilty of a
shameful lie" in attempting to
link him with Fascist forces in
South America.
Ibanez, who came to this country
recently as the guest of the AFL
and CLIO, said in his letter:
II have been a humble but con-
sistent anti-Fascist fighter from the
time Fascism and Nazism first APP
peared in the world as a reaction
airy and anti-labor menace. I shall
continue to remain anti-Nazi, as |
have always been, before June %,
1941, and after, while / have the
strength to fight for social progress
and human freedom. Mr.. BroWder
is surely not the person to give me
lessons in this respect"

An Old Scare Story Is Revived
Social Security Funds Are Being Invested in Government
Bonds. mad That's the Safest q. 0. u in the World

From time to time, newspapers in various parts of the country en-
deavor to scare their readers by repeating the old yarn about the way
the government is using social security funds to meet ordinary expenses
The latest to come to I'LL attention is an editorial in the Times
of Beatrice, Neb. The editor says:
Instead of creating an honest reserve of these paid-in funds for
some future showdown, the government has been spending the money
IN current expenses and placing in the reserve fund a series of Gus"
BY weird calculations which no ordinary person can hope to follow,
the editor reaches the conclusion that there is IAN overall 800 per cent
loss"
1t woul be most unfortunate if any considerate number of people
were to accept that statement at its face value, for it is entirely err
roneous.
We don't know what the editor had in mind when he wrote about an
honest reserve" but we take it for granted he would agree that any
surplus in the social security fund should be invested, mad not piled
up in the Treasury vaults in the form of currency and gold and silver.
He would also probably agree that the surplus should be invested in
the best securities available.
Well, that is exactly what has happened. The social security surplus
is used to buy a special kind of government bond. It pays 3 per cent
Such a bond would command a premium on the open market, but it is
sold to social security at par. That means that social security is getting
the best security available at a remarkable favorable price.
Of course, these bonds are Il. Q. US" but they're Uncle Sans Il.
0. US" Every bond he has issued since the Constitution was adopted
was Just an Il. 0. U"-that is, is was a promise that it would be re-
deemed at face value by Uncle Sam on a given date
Uncle Sam has never run OUT such a promise. He has always
redeemed his T. 0. US" With the help of God, he always will Social
security investments are as sound is our government, and our govern
ment is just about the soundest thing in the world.
We are all interested in social security. Therefore, anything that
diSturbs our faith in that great institution is worthy of the most serious
consideration. LABOR has given such consideration to social security

NAZIS STRIP
P~ROTECTORAT OF.
ART TREASURES
WASHINGTON

WASHINGTON. - A German
language newspaper published in
Prague contained in its issue of
March 20, as reported to the Owl,
the following revealing admission
of depredations wrought by the Ma
zis on churches and museums in the
"Protectorate."
Whoever visits st. Vitus cathed-
raj these days will hardly recog-
nize it. Plastics on the walls have
been taken down, and the silver
embossed coffin of st. Nepomuk
has been removed. Hardly any pre-
cious works of art are there any
longer. They have been replaced by
copies which are SO good they fit IN
perfectly. AS in Prague, similar
measures have been taken else
where in the country. 1t is notable
that and art galleries
have not been closed, but what is

ALLIED GENERAL
PRAISES JUGOSLAV
PARTISANS

WASHINGTON. - According to
a BIC broadcast on April 20, the
Chief of the British-American mis-
sion at Marshal Tito'S headquarters,
General Mclean, reported that the
Allies had delivered thousands of
tons of war materials to the Jugo-
slav partiSans during the past
months. Gen. Mclean in his report
claimed that the Jugoslav Peoples
Army of Liberation, under the lead
ership of Marshal Tito, had grown
into a large, we'll disciplined force,
and that the whole Jugoslav front
has been united through the spirit
of brotherhood.
The second edition of New Jul
goslavia" published the full text
of General McLean's declaration
which, according to reports reach
ing the Owl, is as follows:
The complete agreement reach
ed at Teheran shows how vain are
German hopes that by Allied dis
unity they would be saved from
final destruction. In the last few
months the Allies had sent thou

Why Abolish the Poll I ox?'

why should labor everywhere be concerned in the fight to abolish
he poll tax in eight Southern States? The poll tax bars ten million
people from taking part in their government But how does that hurt
he people of the other forty States?
The truth is, the poll tax doesn't just bar the Southern people from
sharing our democracy. 1t also keeps the rest of the American people
from having a fair share, too.
Take your own Congressman. 1t takes less than 9,4O0 votes to elect
he average pol-tax Congressman and $4,000 to elect a non-poH-tax
Congressman, which means that one pol-tax vote is worth more than
five non-polLtax votes
AS a rule, not more than 3 per cent of the people of a poll tax State
oe. The fact that poll tax congressman and Senators are not elected
~ the majority Of the people of their state means they do not serve the
majority of any of us.
These are days OF government rules and regulations. Our govern
nent now decides how much your wife pays for the pork chops you eat
or supper. It's Congress that makes the rules. Therefore, the people
must elect Congressman who will serve them fairly.
Poll tax repeal will mean that the locomotive fireman in Alabama,
ne textile worker in South Carolina, the printer in Virginia can vote
chat means he a elect a man who will be responsible to the working
oeope. Such anti-labor leaders IS the outhors of the Smith-Connally
