Fact Sheet Confirms What Organized Labor Has
 Contended For Years

For the greater part of this war the army has conducted ''Orienta- tion'' courses for its fighting men all over the world.
 ''Orientation" is $lO word but it describes lecture and discussion classes put on for the 'C.I.'s" so as to keep them fully informed on military problems, international re- lations and the home front.
 As guide for officers who run the classes the War Department publishes "Orientation Fact Sheets" Last year labor carried stories on several o1 them, signed by General George C Marshall, chief of staff, which gave an unusually fair picture of labor achievements on the war production front.
 FASCISM. EXPLORED
 Normally they are 'srestricted'' and not available to civilians, but this week George Seldes, editor of the little paper, s'In Fact" re. printed one of the latest of the army's ''fact sheets,'' which went thoroughly into the question of Fascism-hOw it starts, who fnan. oes it, what it does to a nation.
 This fact sheet" is particularly significant because, though written by militarists, it confirms in every re- spect what organized labor has been saying for years about the dangers of Fascism at home and abroad, and warns that it can happen here" if the people are not on guard.
 "Fascism is government by the few and for the few" the document points out. Tt came to power in Germany Italy and Japan at time of social and economic unrest. A small group of men, supported in secret by power ful financial and military interests convinced enough insecure people that Fascism would give them the things they wanted"
 SMASHED LABOR UNIONS
 The pamphlet goes on to point out that the Fascists made glowing prom ises to everyone in order to get into power, but fulfilled only those they gave to the industrialists and fnan- ciers who "paid the freight" To re- deem their promises to the latter, the Fascists smashed both trade unions and small business competitors.
 Deprived of their unions, the working people could be driven to work longer and harder for less and less money, SO that those who subsidized and ran Fascism could grow richer," the fact sheet made it clear.
 Fascism is not exclusively foreign product It can arise here, the army said. As evidence of this, the docu-

HOLLYWOOD-Somebodyo ought to write song called ''The Movie Machine Broke Down. and sing it to producers who insist people only want ''entertainment.'' Here's the incident that was reported back to the army's special services division at Washington:
 At an African base the projection machine broke down in the first reel of movie show for GIs. Sgt. Spots wood Foster figured the repair joo would take 1Ia hours and suggested that the audience be dismissed.
 Several men said they'd like to stay and watch the job. Foster obliged by moving the protector onto a plat form before he went to work. From time to time he wrote on a black board what he was doing. When the job was done the audience was intact. Hardly man had stirred. Moral "Men at Work" might be good plot formula, too.
 More Movie Going: Now is no tlme to expect any soul searching by Hollywood as to correctness of approach to the public's heart. Business is better than ever.
 "U. s. Bite for Last Year Sets Record" headlined Daily Variety in reporting that 1914 admission taxes tota1ed $312,767, ,286.
 Only eight months of l944 were at the new admission tax rate, but they averaged $4,5OO,OOO a month more than had been anticipated from 20 per cent tax. Or-as MT. Morgenthau undoubtedly sees it-$9 million a month less than he hoped for from the proposed 30 per cent tax.
 Theaters did all right for them selves, too. They probably took unto themselves close to $o million a month more than before.

Another Drive On
 Unions Is A Fiizzle

LOS ANGELES-Another attempt of the "Women of the Pacific" one of the Pacific Coasts many anti-1abor organizations, to drum up interest for state law barring union shop" con- tracts in California has Topped.
 Last January the organization be- gan drive for signatures to petitions to get the measure before the state legislature under California's initiative and referendum statute. When the deadline was reached a week ago, it had fallen far short of the number of signatures required.
 In a previous effort, the Women of the Pacific and collaborating groups got enough signatures to place a similar proposition on the ballot, but 1t was defeated last fall by a 2-to-1 majority.

Two Important
 Points Settled

The United States Supreme Court has just ruled that an employer cannot forbid em- ployes to solicit union mem- bership on company premises during nOn-wOrk hours, and in a companion case upheld the right of union organizers to distribute labor literature on an employers property de- spite a company prohibition against such activity.
 Both cases were decided by an 8-l vote with Justice Reed de- livering the single opinion cover ing them and Justice Roberts dissenting.
 FOUR DISCHARGED
 The solicitation case grew out of the discharge of four employees of the Republic Aviation Corp, air craft manufacturer, on Long Island. One had flOuted company rule designed to prevent soliciting of any sort, and the other three were wearing union buttons during the progress of a drive to organize the plant. The National Labor Re- lations Board held that the dis missals interfered with the work ers' right to organize, in violation of the Wagner Act and this ruling was affirmed by the Second Circuit Court of Appeals.
 The literature distribution case de- veloped at the plant of Le Tourneau Co.,, machinery manufacturer, near Toccoa, Ga, where two employees were suspended for violating the com pany rule Here, too, the Labor Re lations, Board said the Wagner Act guarantees were violated but the board lost in the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals.
 The Supreme Court said ssthe Wagner Act did not undertake the impossible task of specifying in precise and unmistakable language each incident which constitutes an unfair labor practice. On the con- trary, that act left to the board the work of applying the acts general prohibitory language in the light of the infinite combinations of events which might be charged as viOlative of it's terms.''
 On this premise the court decided that 1t was a proper exercise of authority for the board to hold that the action complained of violated the act

ment cited Americas record of "mob sadism, 1ynchings, vigilantism, terror and suppression of civil liberties" <" upon which Fascists gangs, such as Black Legions and Silver Shirts, could thrive.
 EXPLOITS SOCIAL PROBLEMS
 Above all, the pamphlet emphasized that whenever free governments any where fail to solve their basic eco- homie and social problems there is always the danger that native brand of Fascism will arise to exploit the situation and the people"
 American Fascists will not call themselves such, the army warned. They would ''work under the guise of 'super-patriotism' and super Americanism','' and they would sspit religious, racial and economic groups against each other in order to break down national unity g That, said the army, is the Hitler divide and conquer technique.'
 "The only way to prevent Fascism from getting a hold in America is by making our democracy work and by active cooperation to preserve world peace and security" the fact sheet stressed.
 ''Lots of things can happen in- side of people when they are un- employed or hungry.

 "Only by democratically solving the economic problems of our day can there be any certainty that Fascism won't happen here. That is our job as citizens.''

 Our Right To Picket


 PORTLAND, Ore. = Right of peaceful picketing for the purpose of unionizing employees was upheld by Circuit Judge Martin w. Hawkins, dismissing suit against the Central Labor Council and the Metal Trades Council.
 The Oregon law known as the little NorrisLeGuardia act" the judge said, permits peaceful picketing even where there is no direct dispute between employer and employe.
 The injunction suit was brought by the Peters Co. after the metal coun- cil began picketing its plant on March s, 1914, to win closed shop agree ment.
