that all it's Washington lobbyists knew the same bare handful of liberal Congressmen and Senators. To remedy this, Murray has set up CIO legislative committee which meets weekly to discuss all vital legislative issues.
 The committee has 15 members and each of them has been as signed to about 30 different Sen ators and Congressmen. It is their job to pressure them on vital is sues. Each member is financed by an international CIO union, includ- ing the powerful steel workers, auto workers, rubber workers, textile workers and Hillman's own Amal- gamated Clothing Workers.
 Another important change made by Murray was to order the estab- lishment of a legislative news ser vice to be sent each week to around 5000 legislative representatives in each CIO local union throughout the country. Thus the CIO will be able to put the heat on legislators from thousands of communities on very short notice.

VOTING FIGURES

Final tabulations of last November's vote for President show 48025,684 votes cast, or about one and hree-quarters millions less than the number cast in 1940 Since the population increased between 940 and 1914 the percentage of adult citizens voting in 1944 must have been somewhat less than the percent age in 1940, which has been estimated as high 66. The for this decline probably is that many citizens lost their votes by moving-some into the armed services others into industrial away from their customary places of registration No knows how many service people lost their votes, either be- of defective State laws because of the un- avodable circumstances of war.

initey stymied" the VILE and is holding up wage de- csons affecting textile workers and employees of the meat t-packing industry The effect of such nterven of a second hand panel" In to that objection, might be said that concessions granted with regard to their raising effects would "styme OPA activities and if, carried too far, that agency into a second-rate control agency.
 The fact is of course that VILE and the OPA must work in close cooperation to stable prices The WLB has been allowed a great deal of leeway to authorize wage adjustments which increase pro- duction costs and put pressure price ceilings Obviously there is a limit to the amount of such wage concessions that the employer agree to make with out raising his selling prices The practice of differ entatng between increase in basic rates of pay which are subject to limitation under the Little Steel formula and other types of wage concessions that increase earnings often serves convenient device for getting around the limitations of the formula. When special adjustments such pay for vacations and holidays wage reclassfcations and other conces- sions not calling for general wage increases are authorized, inevitably those adjustments become matter of to OPA
 Tn opinion it is entirely reasonable to request
 the effect of requested fringe adjustments on prices and found out whether Director Vinson considers them consonant with his obligation to maintain stable price level MT Murray barking up the wrong tree Judge Vinson is the right man in the right place" administrator who is serving his country with zeal and fahfuness. and the country knows it. With the Nations confidence, MT Vinson is finding his strength increasingly potent.

SIDNEY'S PAC

Meanwhile, Hillman's PAC, re- maining in New York, will work on the following program: Killing the poll tax; lowering voting age from 2l to IS; urging more workers to register for elections, and finally, charting the movements of migra- tory war workers during the recon version period ahead, so that when the next Congressional election comes around CIO members who have been working in war plants and have returned to their old homes will be able to register and vote.
 Actually, although nothing has been said about it publicly, Mur- ray strongly favors bringing the PAC headquarters to Washington. However, Hillman, eager to main tain his own autonomy and re- luctant to move to Washington himself, has now won his point on keeping the PAC headquarters in New York.

The Gestapo in America
(NeW York Tines)

(New York Times)
 Facts belatedly made public by the Army author-
 es and reported for this newspaper by Russell Porter indicate that fanatical Naz agents created reign of terror in German prisoner camps in this country between September 1943 and April 1914 Six prisoners who proved "dsloyal" to the Hitler regime were killed Two other driven to suicide On our soil, in the presence of our own armed guards, NaZ "courts" were set up and Naz sentences carried out These outrages might have been prevented if the authorities had realized that capturing Naz gangsters well of the-m mill soldiers They have now learned that gangsters may be found in any German military unit and that capture and internment does not humanize them These creatures have supposedly been segregated and their activities halted
 This ugly episode has moral for the rest of us well for those whose duty it is to guard German prisoners The completely indoctrinated Nazi is not be converted when the German armies cut to ribbons and Germany itself occupied by the Allies He will understand that he was unsuccessful but not that he was wrong. Not all such individuals can be convicted of crimes for which they can be kept out of circulation after peace has been Many in Germany itself will have to be turned loose, free of any restraints except such imposed by the occupying armies on all inhabitants There will be difficult police problem while such sanity as remains in German is reasserting itself and while new gen. eration is being educated for civilized existence. And this is another reason why compromise with the Nazs is a vain and menacing dream. They will have to be polced in Germany they are in prison camps In small conspracies as in large ones they prove their unfitness for life in civilized world

Therefore, wise persons will make the most of every moment. BUSINESS AFFAIRS - Severe weather following heavy storms will cause serious losses for farmers in various parts of the country, but 1 agriculturists and stock breeders have fortunate forecast for the spring. Grain will be produced in great quantities and will be of special value to European war victims who require aid despite efforts at self-support.
 NATIONAL ISSUES - Midwinter epidemics among children may cause need for extra nurses: hospi- tals will be overcrowded. This month and next special attention will be focused on the nations supreme asset, it's growing boys and girls.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS = Turkey comes under planetary di- rectlon which seems to presage many difficulties. Tension in for elgn relations ma ycause anxiety put there is a fortunate aspect for the Allies. Changes among leading statesmen are prognosticated
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of business and domestic upheavals which will ulti- mately be fortunate. Journalists and musicians will prosper.
 Children born on this day prob- ably will be clever and charming These Aquarians will gain much through friends whom they win easily.

HOROSCOPE "The stars incline
 but do not compel"
SUNDAY, FEBRUARY Il

SUNDAY, FEBRUARY II
 This is not an important day in planetary direction but a benefic aspect is read as presaging good news regarding the war.
 HEART AND HOME-Women of the past who led men to observ- ance of religious obligations will now be initiated by women of the present. Laxity in churchgoing and indulgence in Sunday recreations will be recognized as harmful to the home and the nation.
 BUSINESS AIRS-Americans are to prove even more resourceful and successful in business than they were before war emergencies developed super foresight and sa- gacity. The stars presage amazing wealth for the United States but warn that it must be made and used wisely lest it become a de- stroying force.
 NATIONAL ISSUES Prison reforms will be advocated this year with a persistence that will bring about intelligent treatment of law breakers. Psychologists and psychia- trists will contribute. to the suc- cess of scientific methods of re- storing criminals to normal life interests.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS - Beginning this month and ending in July, favorable planetary in fluences will affect China, where there will be trend toward unity of purpose. A new consciousness among opposing political and mili- tary factions of the power which derives from harmony will con- tribute much to defeat of Japan 1 by the United Nations.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of in teresting experiences. Many will travel over great distances.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be artistic and idealistic. They have the promise of success, for they will have rare mental powers.

 The other day Verdi got unique . letter from three South African soldiers who had been prisoners of of the German Army. had escaped and were hidden in an Italian vil- lage for 13 months in occupied Italy.
 Finally, when they were ready to make their break for freedom, they promised to let the Italian villagers know whether they had safely passed the German lines And the means of letting them know was through The Voice of America" Verdi got the letter from the three South Africans and now has broadcast the news back to Italy that they are safe.

CIO REvAMPs LOBBY

It is considered a hush- hush secret but one thing Sidney Hill man cleared before he returned to London for the War Labor Con- ference was showdown regard ing CIO lobbying in Washington. Hillman and CIO President Phil Murray had a knock down drag out discussion regarding what their future operations would be. Hill man has been chief boss of the Political Action Committee and has functioned from New York, while Murray ran the CIO headuuarters. and it's lobbying organization in Washington. There has been some talk that the PAC and Hillman would move to Washington in order to correlate the two.
 In the end, however, this was vetoed. Hillman and his PAC will stick to New York and concentrate their efforts on a national cam paign aimed to increase labor rep resentation in the next Congress at the 1946 election.
 Murray meanwhile will continue to concentrate on the present Con- gress and pending legislation be- fore it.
 During his conference with Hill man, Murray pointed out that one CIO lobbying weakness has been

CHRISTMAS SHOPPING HINT

With Christmas approaching on the gallop the problem OF
what to get who for a present must soon be wrestled with if it
has not already entangled you in it's perpleXities.
Of course, it is one thing to finally decide what to get
your wife or your husband, or the youngsters or Aunt Minnie,
but it is something else again to obtain it. In fact, it takes
a real rugged i~ndividualist in these days of short supplies and
abundant customers to plunge into the swirlng tide of Christ
mas shoppers and try to find it.
Wouldn't it be swell if you could do all your shopping at
one time, in one place without being pushed or crowded, and
where you could get gifts that would be real bargains, gifts
that would be greatly appreciated and would have not only
a lasting but an everlasting value?
Well, believe it or not, it can be done. What better gift
can you give anyone than those attractive items Uncle Sam
has for sale? They sell as low as $18.75 and there isn't a
better buy anywhere at any price.
If you happen to be in doubt what to ask for they're known
as Victory Bonds.

POINT SYSTEM

Where there is so much smoke there must be some fire
Charges are becoming more frequent that certain servicemen,
because of their connections with influential officials, are be-
ing shipped home and released ahead of others having many
more discharge points to their credit. With the exception of
genuine emergency cases the army and navy discharge point
system should be applied impartialy to all servicemen.
Nothing can be more disrupting to the morale of the men in
uniform who have served long periods overseas to discover that
favoritism is enabling others to get home while they wait for
weeks on end for transportation back to the States. There is
no reason to believe that this is being done on a large scale
but if it is being done even in a few cases it is too much. Our
fighting men are entitled to a square deal and they should
get it.
