HALF DONE

We Day in Europe signifying the end of
hostilities in which millions of our soldiers
were involved, gives us feeling of satisfac-
ton in the belief and hope that it spells the
end of a system which knew no bounds of
mercy or pity
Our satisfaction is not complete, however,
and cannot be complete until we have dealt
with the remaining link of the Axis chain
Japan. We recognize that our task is but half
completed
With this thought in mind, that vicious
enemy still remains to be ground into the
humiliation of unconditional surrender we
must stick with out task and redouble our
efforts so that the victory may be won quickly
and at the sacrifice of as few American lives
as possible.
PEOPLE SERIOUS
l have looked at our people in the shops
and war industries of Toledo and find them
serious and determined to continue to produce
the things which are still necessary to deliver
the Knockout punch to the nation which COM
mitted crime (which shall live in infamy"
as President Roosevelt SO ably expressed it.
We will not rest content until those who
have used aggression and their military might
as an instrument of national policy have been
given the answer to their challenge. They must
be defeated so deciSively that they will never
again be able to endanger the civilized world
with their sword-rattling and overbearing,
armed bullying tactics
While we are still working for military
victory, we should work for the real peace
which we hope will come to us after this war;
Peace, like wars, must be prepared for and
won by making effort in unity to gain the
things which we know the people must have
We must plan now for the peace which is
to come and make every effort to do every
thing in our power to see that justice prevails
Peace as we have known it has been false
peace in which the people of all countries of
the world sat and waited for the war which
they knew was surely coming.
We want no more uncertain peace, but
security for the people of all countries To this
end we must bend our efforts now and after
the war.

FIGHT For Peace

We Day, signifying the victorious end
of the war in Europe has come and gone
leaving us acutely aware that the war is
not over and that many lives and re-
sources must still be sacrificed to the god
of war before we can attempt to fashion
a world of peace.
Our joy In victory over the vicious
and brutal PHILOSOPHERS of Hitler and Mus
solini is short-lived in the realization that
our remaining military opponents are
even more bloodthirsty than the Nazis
and that they will not easily give up the
conquest upon which they set out.
With this knowledge we must dedi-
cate ourselves anew to the tasks which
remain before U.S. until at last we shall
have defeated those who have plunged the
whole world into blooshed and disaster
and set back progress incalculable years.
Nor must our efforts to defeat the
principles which have activated Hitler,
Mussolini and the japanese end with the
military defeat of Japan, for we must
discover and wipe out the forces of Fas-
cism no matter where we find them or
what their nationality. Our fight for peace
will not end with Japan.
The peace for which we long, the
peace for which we fight and sacrifice will
not be won until we have eliminated the
causes which produced the elements from
which this war was fashioned. We must
60 on, we must work and fight, but never
lost sight of the ultimate goal of lasting
peace based upon justice, for unless this
be our goal, We Day and victory over
Japan will be hollow victories mocking
the dead who have given their all in the
cause of unattainable principles.

The PR Argument

Every two years, or ever since the
PR system first was adopted by the citi-
zens of Toledo, the argument has waxed
hot over this poorly understood system of
electing city councilmen.
In brief, the Political Action Commit
tee objects to the PR for three reasons: 1.
Each citizens vote is not equal. 2. The sys-
tenn is not widely understood. 3. 1t brings
about rule of the majority by minorities.
Those who favor the PR system say
that there is nothing complicated about it,
that anyone can understand it and that
those who cannot are lacking in intel
ligence.
Based on the arguments advanced by
those who favor the PR system any other
system of voting is inferior to their sys-
tenn, yet, it is fact that this system has
not been used in this country in state or
national election and has been repealed
by many communities where the system
formerly was in use.
We recognize that there are many
people in this city who are sincere in their
belief in the PR system and believe that
it does have some good points. On the
other hand, it is our conviction that any
system of electing public officials which
is not easily understandable by the pub
lie defeats its purpose and leads to politi-
cal indifference.
Proof of the increasing apathy of
Toledo voters under the PR system of
voting is found in the increasingly small
er vote cast at each municipal election,
trend which set in before the war and
continued until 1943, when, through the
efforts of the Political Action Committee
and In the face of the prediction which
had been made that it would be small
election, the largest number of voters.
since 1885 cast their ballots.
This years election will again see a
large number of citizens exercise their
vote, not because of the PR system, but in
spite of it, and because they are going to
confirm or repudiate the belief of those
who favor PR. If the present system of
electing city councilmen is defeated, and
we believe it will be, 1t will be because
citizens do not want a method of voting
which they do not readily understand.

he said, declaring that this movement
was part OF the democratic front
throughout the world and would become
a nor and nor important factor in
the defeat OF Japanese fascism.
The leagues program for Japan does
not call for the overthrow Of the en-
peror, since the people are not yet pre-
pard for such action. Its program for
destroying the power of the miItarists

cut the ground from under the institu-

News of The Silver Bow
Trades & Labor Council

A rather meager number of delegates
showed up for the meeting Of the Silver
Bow Trades & Labor Council last Tues
day night but there were some sub
stantial alibis offered in the offing. The
double convention of the State Culinary
Alliance, which includes the Bartenders',
Cooks and Walters, and Women's Pro-
tective organizations, n the annual
convention of the Montana State FEEDER
alton Of Labor stole some Of the mem
bers of the council.
It was announced through Mrs. Alice
Merrett, business agent of the Butte
Laundry and Dye Workers that the union
had recently received a favorable deci-
sion from the War Labor Board in Wash
ington which settled all the disputes in
volved and gave the union two signed
contracts. The organization will submit
copies of these contracts to the Silver
Bow Trades & Labor Council in the
near future. The Trades & Labor Coun-
Gil was pleased to receive the news.
sss
Secretary Waters was instructed to
send greeting kilograms to the State
Federation Of Labor Convention and also
to the convention of Culinary Workers in
Billings.
Some time back the Trades Council
decided to hold its regular session just
twice a month instead Of weekly, during
the summer months. This schedule was
to terminate August 81. However, a
motion was made and carried to con-
tinue the twice a month schedule
through September, so that the next
