CONTINUED from Page One)

It is the intention of Wilmington
occupancy for another 18 months,
according to the Legionnaires' ar
gunents. A $4,5o0,000 hospital
has been authorized at Salisbury,
but that also will require months
for completion.
Legion members to bring this need
and solution to the attention Of
the proper authorities and to work
for execution of an order placing
Fort Fisher hospital under the Vet
erans' administration. The hospital
at Fort Fisher is the best-built
Army hospital on the eastern sea-
board, having brick construction
throughout, air-conditioning in, por-
lions and clinics. It is only par
tialy-occupied, and is at present on
a surplus basis with the Fourth
Service command at Atlanta, Ga.
The Legion will seek support
from the Chamber of Commerce
and city and county organizations
to push this measure now, it was
said.

ship of women in trade unions,
soaring from 500, 900 to more than
100000 as a direct result of the

Urging the same pay scales for
women as men, she told the Bos-

that most unions have pressed for
equal pay rights and large unions
in the "women-employing indus
tries now have hundreds of con-

Women, like men, work because

possibilities of the women wage

In Three Months For Three Centuries

The liquidation of feudaism in the Balkans and in other areas
liberated from the Nazis is a fact whose political and social implications
great landed estates which for centuries formed the backbone of a class
economy r rapidly being dissolved and the land distributed to the
peasants Up to now we have had no detailed information about what
is happening in those East Prusian territories occupied by the Russians.
But it is logical to assume that the Junker estates, those traditional
breeding grounds for Prussian militarim, will also be demolished. In
other words, an economic process which normally would have taken
events. Those who have thought that the old social order could some
how be rescued out of the general destruction of the war should watch
this development with profound attention. Just how the feudal system
will be iquidated is of secondary Importance in comparison to the his
toric fact. Perhaps it will be necessary after the war to apply different
regulations to the distribution of land from those now being put into
effect. Perhaps the complicated problems inherent in any agrarian
reform will demand the formulation of new economic solutions; in
some countries it may lead to collectivization, in others to the creation
of small farms But no matter what the final pattern may be, the i'm
porGant thing to note at this moment is that a revolution is in progress
which, in some countries at least, is wiping out in three months the
social injustices of three centunes-The Nation.
