COUNTY KITCHENS
Are TIN Mines
FOR WAR ITEMS

Women of Silver Bow county can
mine" tin sufficient for 1853 torpedoes
this year.
These figures we're compiled by J. A.
Stewart, vic president Of the American
Can Company, on the basis Of canned
foods consumed by civilians in the coun-
ty during 1943. On the basis of last
years consumption, civilians will open
4.3O9.764 cans of food this year, he said.
According to a table recently issued by
Washington, $4,000 cans provide tin suf-
ficient for n torpedo.
Meanwhile, the armed forces con-
sumed approximately three billion cans
of foods during 1913 and needs for the
current year are expected to rise to
three and a quarter billion cans, Mr..
Stewart said. He pointed out that with
a greatly increased number of the armed
forces in overseas duty, more canned
foods will be needed because the can
has proved the most practical container
for the shipment of foods abroad.

SEPT. MUNITIONS
OUTPUT MISSES
GOAL 4 PER CENT

WASHINGTON-Munitions production
in September missed the first-of-the-
month goal by four per cent, WPB re-
ports. Valued at $5,3 OO,O OO, 900, output
for the month was two per cent below
the monthly average for the year.
Though production in a few critical
~categories, such as heavy artillery ammu-
milton and heavy-heayy trucks, increased,
so tremendous are present requirements
that, even after being tailored to con-
form to feasible production programs,
schedules in most instances run ahead Of
output.
Ammunition and miscellaneous equip
ment were the only ~categories to show
an increase over August. Ammunition
production was up 8 per cent from
August, though still / per cent below
schedule. Other equipment and sup
plies ran a per cent ahead Of August
production and l per cent above schedule.
Aircraft output was down s per cent,
both from August production and Sep
TENDER schedules. Ship production was
8 per cent below August output and 6
per cent behind schedule. Guns and fire
control were down 9 per cent from
August and II per cent below schedule.
Combat and motor vehicles were down
4 per cent from August, 9 per cent from
September schedules. There was no
change in production of communication
and electronic equipment, though output
fell S per cent below schedule.
Production of ordnance and vehicles
failed to show an increase for the first
time in several months, WPB said, Be
cause Of sharply increased schedules,
though output of heavy artillery ammu-
milton, including naval. was up 16 per
cent, it still missed schedule by two per
cent.
The heavy field artillery program met
or exceeded first-of-the-month goals,
hitting a stride that must be maintained
if requirements for the remainder of the
year are to be met.
Deliveries Of heavy-heavy trucks in
creased nearly 400 to 1850, but failed by
$50 to meet the irst-of-the-month
schedule, which had been sharply low
cred for feasibility reasons, WPB said.
Future production must double to reach
the level called for in stated require
ments.

power as well as flood control and i'm
proved navigation.
While he did not name the envisioned
projects specifically, Roosevelt said they
would probably center around the most

DETAILED PLAN
TO GOVERN
REHIRE OF VETERANS

union
proposals to guarantee unemployment
rights of war veterans and safeguard
Jobs of civilian workers, as contained
in a plan advanced by the United Elec-
trical Radio & Machine Workers (CIO)
to the General Motors Corporation, were
announced by the UE November Is.
The plan, which deals specifically with
knotty problems involved in rehire Of
veterans, is founded on a concept of
full civilian production and employment
and calls for joint cooperation and con-
sultation between union and company on
reconversion plans.
Under the UE plan, employees on mill
tary leave who return with physical
handicaps acquired in service may be
placed and retained on any job they are
capable Of doing, or may be trained to
do, without regard to seniority.
While all employees on military leave
from the company will be given prefer
ence in hiring, with accrued seniority,
veterans not previously employed by the
company who apply within so days after
discharge shall upon employment acquire
seniority equal to their total months OF
military service, or from Jan. l, 1871.
The unions proposal calls for estab-
iishment Of a veterans committee to
deal with problems moi covered in the
agreement, and secondly, the setting up
of an assistance fund by the company
to grant wage advances equal to the
amount received by veterans under the
G. I. act, for setting up his home in the
community.

1T was made" he said, with the un-
derstanding that every grievance which
arose which could not be adjusted
locally would be promptly considered and
acted upon by one of the several federal
agencies dealing with industrial prob
lens.
IF the record of the agencies was as
satisfactory as labor's no-strike pledge,
some of the resentment which led to
temporary stoppages Of employment
would not have developed"
FOresees Direct Dealings
Frey concluded with the assertion that
with the end of the war there will prob
ably be less dependence upon civilian
federal agencies and more upon direct
collective bargaining with employers"
CHICAGO-Mor Than $50 delegates
to the seventh constitutional convention
Of the Congress Of Industrial Organiza-
tions were in their seats when the first
session opened last Monday.
Besides reports from Pres. Philip Mlr-
ray on the organizations progress in the
past year, delegates have before them
decisions on several issues which may
shape the future course Of this wing Of
the labor movement.
Fresh from victories in congressional
election fights from California to New
Jersey, and proud of their getting-Out-
the-vote achievements for President
Roosevelt, delegates are expected to focus
attention on the future Of CLOS political
action committee.
Funds Again Available
After election day, the funds frozen
by the CLIO PAC after the big-party con-
ventions, because of smith-C onnally act
restrictions, were again available, and no
matter what the decision on the future
role of the organization built up during
the political campaign, disposition of
these funds will be an important ques-
ton.
Problems Of r~econversion to peacetime
production will also take up IN import
ant part of the deliberations. With most
of its largest unions almost entirely in
war production ndustries-aircraft and
tanks, ships, steel, rubber, and electrical
questions of planning for full employ
ment and full production are paramount

PROBE DISMISSAL
OF RAINEY

AUSTIN, Texas-(FP)-Texas Univer-
sity students have returned to class
under protest" while four h~igh-ranking
American educational associations are
investigating the circumstances of Pres.
Homer p. Rainey's dismissal.
The American Association Of Univer-
sity Professors, which recommended the
reinstatement of three University pro-
fessors dismissed for their liberal views
in 1912, urged Gov. Coke Stevenson to
appoint regents of "judicious tempera-
ment7 to replace three who recently re-
signed. Rainey was ousted by the board
for his strong defense Of academic free
dom. o
DR.. Ralph E. Himstead, general secre-
tary of the Association, also stated in
his wire that the board Of regents was
apparently guilty of serious departures
from good academic practice and viola
lions of principles of intellectual freedom
generally observed by boards of trustees
of accredited colleges and universities.
Other interested educational groups
are the Southern Association of Colleges
and Secondary Schools, Phi Beta Kappa,
and the American Association Of Uni
versities. The first two are expected to
send representatives to Austin, with
possible suspension Of the University
from affiliation, if charges Of interior
ence with free inquiry and teaching
are upheld. The American Association
of Universities, while not yet directly
involved, will probably initiate an inves-
tigation. Texas University is one of the
four southern colleges recognized by the
association, which ranks as the highest
educational group in the country.
Labor groups, including the Texas
Federation of Labor and the National
Maritime Union (CIO), have protested
the regents high-handed action and
sent messages of support to the stu
dents.
Stevenson, who is expected to an
nounce requirements on the board Of re-
gents within a week, has indicated that
he will exert no pressure for reinstate-
ment of Rainey. The Texas students.
however, will be satisfied with no less
than a new set of regents and the re-
turn of Rainey. Malcolm wallace, dyna-
mic president of the Students associa-
ton, said at a campus mass meeting
that the students could stay out on
strike, if necessary, until hell freezes
over"

NAVY SETS new
GOALS FOR
ROCKET OUTPUT

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS the in
creasingly vital role of rockets as a
weapon of war, the Navy department has
announced that when its new rocket
program reaches peak production, it is
expected to approximate $500, OOO, 600 per
month"; figure equalling the total
monthly procurement of all Naval m
munition at the present time.
Rocket installations of Navy assault
craft have been used with spectacular
success in amphibious operations against
the Japs. Air-borne rockets have blasted
the Germans in the landings or the
coast of France. Navy combat planes
equipped with rockets nave blasted
enemy installations, surface ships, and
even submarines. On all fronts the Axis
is being showered, at a mounting tempo,
with a blazing rain Of deadly rockets, the
Navy reports.
Rear Admiral Daniel E. Barley, COM
mander of the Amphibious Force Of the
Seventh Fleet, in describing the powerful
aid rendered by rocket fire-power in
establishing beachheads, said rockets are
particularly effective in the crucial
phase Of the operation after naval guns
and planes have bombarded the shore
and the first wave of assault troops are
going in. Fired from multiple deck
tubes on certain types of landing craft,
the rockets spread destruction and panic
among enemy machine-gunners waiting
for our men as they hit the beach.
Marine aviators launched the first air
borne rocket attack against the Japs at
Rabaul last March. one of their first
targets was a 45O-foot cargo ship.
In a later raid on the Jap stronghold
of Palau by American car%rier-based
planes, a Navy torpedo squadron-using
a combined rocket and skip-bombing at
tack-accounted for five of the IS Jap
ships destroyed in the action.
Earlier in the year, in the Atlantic,
two Navy Avenger torpedo bombers, with
batteries of rockets tucked underneath
their wings, surprised a Nazi submarine
On the surface, and with rockets, depth
bombs and machine guns, crossed that
raider off the list.
The many plants helping to produce
rockets, launching %mechanisms and parts
are engaged on of the most critical
jobs in this war, the Navy reports. Maxi
mum production, achieved in the short
est possible time, will result in faster
progress on the war fronts and the a
ing of many lives.

THANKSGIVING

origin in the same feeling of gratitude.
The custom Of observing Thanksgiving in the United
originated with the New England c%olonists. The
turkey has become not only the national emblem of
thanksgiving in America but has spread throughout the
world.
While it is customarily believed that the turkey is a
American bird, some people deny this and say that
it originally came from South America. Be that as it may,
whether there is a shortage for the civilian people of the
United States or not, we are all only too willing to go
without if the boys in the armed forces overseas or at
home can have their regular turkey Thanksgiving dinner
