 The union needs you and you need the union so what are you holding back for? Join up now and don't put it off until tomorrow. We have a lot of jobs for our union men that are on the lay off list, but we have no jobs for nOn-uniOn men that are laid off!
 While walking around the yard at the change of shifts 1t was brought to my attention that the canvas that was used as a wind break for the boys working on the WHEELER" had been taken down. I started to do a little asking of questions on what had happened, and how the boys lost the wind break, and the answer was that An derson was afraid his boys would get the T. B. from lack of sunlight and good old north wind. We'll Eel lows If Anderson looks at your faces now he will see you are al- ready loosing that pale look, and your cheeks are getting rosy again.
 I have heard a lot of the boys complain because the column known as Brickbats and Bouquets has been discontinued but the ones that complain the most are the ones that wrote the brickbats and when ever anything was said about a bad one your publishers always had to take the blame. Now is the time to give the brickbats out, right straight to the man you want to have them! By word of mouth, and not in the Sub.
 have been crane operator in the plant for nearly five years, and have been in every crane from Siberia to the Victory Yard. To- night I was called to do some work with the five-ton crane in bay No. 2, and when I went in the cab 1 thought was going in pig pen. That crane is the dirtiest crane have even been in. don't know who runs it regularly, but whoever he is, he should buy himself pair of hip boots!
 On Monday September II at 12:15 D. m. the "USS Diovon" slid down the ways and took her first bath in the Thames. Today the ways she left stand empty, and no hope of another keel being laid in her place. Think what that means to the workers here at the Boat Go. Think what that means to the wives and children of the men that have been building boats on these ways for the past few years!
 These men or large proportion of them are gone never to return. Some have no jobs to go to and are forced to live on what they re- ceive from the couple of pennies that have been deducted from their pay checks, for just such a time as this. Only six more boats on the ways and as fast as these go over into the Thames more men will be laid off. This is one of the the things that war does to the home front.
 A big rush, and prices go sky high on everything you wear, and then war ends and prices stay up but jobs are lacking. Men go broke trying to live on high priced food with no income.
 We read the papers all about the postwar jobs. Sure we will have postwar jobs, after we have spent all we have and go in the bread line long enough to bring down our wages. In other words starve us to the point where we will be willing to work for what capital wants to pay us.
 Why do these things have to hap pen? Because the working man never seems to get smart enough to hold his run with capitalists. The

l. tax revenue has increased in the
last 10 years from $35, 100000 a year
to $100,000,000.
The Legislature should face it's
duty to the go per cent of the popula-
tion who live in the cities.
In view of mounting revenues,
appropriation of S16,000,000 for
municipalities will not seriously
handicap postwar plans.

reconUersion program, its credit tUitt

For the state today is free of debt,
while Detroit and other cities have
reached their borrowing limit.
The cities look to Gov. Kelly for
a definite and clear solution to the
problem, and his wholehearted aid in
persuading the Legislature to act.
And il should be Dubious that
more nuisance taxes are not the

More Nuisance Taxes?

A S LONG as Michigan's treasury
"A bulges, it is inconceivable that
the Legislature would consider new
taxes to help municipalities.
BY June 80, there will be a cash
surplus of $80,000,000; it may even
reach S9O,0O0,0OO.
Yet the request of the cities for
S16,000,000 year from the state has
been frustrated at every turn.
GOV. KELLY acknowledges the
VI justice of the plea by the cities
Because he wants to create a surplus
for postwar purposes, particularly
for aid to war widows and to return
ing veterans, he is loath to part with
even a small slice of the pyramiding
balance in the treasury.
Of the present surplus, S50,000,-
900 already has been earmarked for
this postwar fund.
In proposing new taxes, such as
levies against cigarets and new
markups on whisky, Gov. Kelly was
not making a specific recommends
ton as part of administration policy.
He merely mentioned neD taxes

day at Madison Square Garden in
The first championship match OF
1945 with the 126-pound king from
Hartford, Conn, a 3 to 1 favor
lite to turn back the challenge Of
Phil Ter1anova, former N. B. A.
titlist.
Promoter Mike Jacobs expects
to draw $4,000 fans and a $50, 600
gate for what may be Pops last
appearance before re-enterlng the
armed service. Although he holds
medical discharge from the Navy.
the champ was re-examined and
accepted for service recently.
Pep, recognized by New York,
Connecticut and Pennsylvania as
feather ruler. is given the unoffi-
cial nod over Sal Bartolo, the N.
B. A. kingpin, because he holds
two decisions over the boy who
knocked the crown of Terranova' S
head.
Only defeat by Sammy Angott
mars Pops record in Sc pro con-
tests but Terranova dubbed over
three rounds with stablemates
with confidence as he sped through
Winnie LasaIva and Vic Costa at
Manager Bobby Gleason's gym.

injury resulting from being struck
by a hit-and-run driver when he
was eight years old, thumped out

of an upset in reports that Pops

of whom he outpointed in 10
rounds, were not too impressive
He has never before met Terra

Hartford today to end his training
work.
