As Appeal 10 Allies
For Softer Demands
BY the Associated Press.

by tHe Associated PreSS.
An article by German Propa-
ganda Minister Paul Joseph Goeb-
bells declaring that Germany and
her enemies both want peace and
calm" has been interpreted by the
United States ONCE of War Infor-
nation as IAN implicit appeal to
the United States and Britain to
soften their demands for uncondi-
tional surrender"
The article appeared in this week 4
issue of the German magazine Das
Reich. AS broadcast in summary
by the Berlin radio in the English
language for consumption in the
United States and Britain, the ar
ticle appeared to be another form
of Nazi propaganda against Boil
shevism and new attempt to drive
wedge between the British Amer
ican Allies and the Soviet Union.
In this account, recorded by the
Associated Press, Goebbels was
quoted directly as saying. "All want
peace and calm except Bolshevism
which wants continued unrest ano
chaos"
Meanwhile. an Associated Press
dispatch from Madrid said Das

Gen. Lewis Defends
Allowance Ban Here

The order Withdrawing ration and
lquarter allowances from enlisted
men assigned to duty in the District
for whom GC>rnment accommoda-
tions are available was defended by
Maj. Gen. John T. Lewis, command
ing offlcer of the Washington Mill
tary District, in letter to Chairman
Reynolds of the Senate Military AZ
fairs Committee.
In view of the large number OF
officers in Washington. the general
wrote. it is impossible to provide
Government housing for them. He
expressed his belief. however. that
because rental allowances seldom
meet the actual cost in wartime
there are very few officers who
would not welcome the opportunity
to move into public quarters"
The letter stated that ration and
quarter allowances can only be paid
when Government facilities are not
available, and, in the case of en-
listed men on duty here, such facil-
tiles have now become available.
The Senator was told that, when
married enlisted men have been re-
moved from the communication status.
the order will not prejudice their
right to dependency allowances.
The letter also pointed out that
enlisted men who have been living
with their wives or relatives have
the option of receiving 81 cents a
day in lieu of mess.
The general closed the letter by
offering to look into any hardship
cases the Senator may bring to the
War Departments attention.

WLB Decision Frees
AFL Union 10 Solicit
Members From clio
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The War Labor Board announced
one of its strangest decisions yes
terday. 1t involved neither wages.
hours, working conditions. nor any,
thing else normally In a labor con-
tract.
The decision instructed Chairman
William H. Davis to advise the
American Federation of Labor at
Milwaukee that the CIO Farm
Equipment Workers had "repudiated
and violated the commitments made
to the board and to the AFL' that
the rival unions would not raid each
others memberships or jurisdictions
In plants of the International Har-
vester Co.
Mr.. Davis letter said that in
March, 1912, the CIO union and the
AFL agreed that for the duration
OF their contracts with the COM
pany each would accept the then
certified union as exclusive bargain
ing agent of the employees in the
respective plants of the company
covered by the National Labor Re-
lations Board certifcation.
THE War Labor Board accepted
and acted on these representations
in granting to the unions mainte-
nance of membership clauses for
the duration of their contracts with
the company.
THE board holds that the AFI,
has thereby been released from the
commitments made in March, 1912.
and that it is no longer bound to re-
frain from soliciting or accepting
AS members employees of the COM
pany at the plants for which the
Farm Equipment Workers has been
certified, and that it is free from
any obligation to refrain from seek
Ing rights of representation at any
Of such plants
The AFL issued simultaneously a
statement saying:
The AFL regrets that this dis
turblng situation has arisen. but it
is determined to pursue an active
and intensive organizing campaign
among the workers at the Interna-
sional Harvester plants, as author
lzed by the National War Labor
