10 Have
Place in Ceremonies
Al Monument June 9

Plans for the ceremony honoring
Washington's Papertrooper Brigade
at Washington Monument at pm.
June 9 are moving forward rapidly,
and arrangements for a parade from
the Grant Memorial at the Capitol
end of the Mall to the Monument
are near completion.
Occupying an honor place in the
parade will be the so top Paper
troopers who are to be presented
with so pairs of pedigreed and reg
istered racing pigeons, the gift of
the Congress of American Pigeon
Fanciers.
All PapertrooperS reaching Super
trooper rank by bringing their col
lections to 1000 pounds or more up
to the collection of June l will be
given place in the parade also, di-
rectly back of the so leaders.
Emblems to Be Presented.
At the Monument Grounds eXer-
cises will be held in the Sylvan The
ater, where Tom Cathcart of the
United States victory wastepaper
campaign, who originated the Pa
pertrooper plan for the War Pro-
duction Board, will present the new
War Production Board Distinguished
Service emblem and campaign bars
to those who have brought in 1000
pounds or more The medallion is
presented for a record of 1000
pounds, and a campaign bar is add
ed for each additional 1000 pounds.
Signal officers from the Army and
Navy will describe the part pigeons
play in work of the Signal Corps,
and after short explanation more
than 500 racing pigeons will be re-
leased to fly to other cities bearing
messages from Washington's school
children to the school children in
other cities. At about the same
time others will be released in Rich
mond to fly here with letters of
commentator to the top SO Paper
| troopers. These will be flown in
duplicate, so that if pigeon should
fail to arrive a second will provide
the message.
Many other features will be in
cluded in the program, the details
of which will be announced later.
Summer Drive Planned.
In the meantime, all Paperuroop-
ers are to be given an opportunity
to sign a pledge to continue COL
lecting throughout the summer. The
pledges will be pasted together to
make long roll which will figure
prominently in the Papertroopers
Day festivities. Pledge forms will be
furnished to all schools this week
Last weeks collections which to-
tailed 306,4 ,480 pounds, brought the
grand total of the present drive to
1888 ,489 pounds. The months to-
tai to date is LOTT ITO pounds and
makes it probable that May will be
the heaviest month of the entire
program. March stands first so far
with 1,226,14 pounds.
Collections will be made from all
schools this week, those normally
picked up on Wednesday being
picked up either Tuesday or Thurs

Instead of using the traditional

sionally mere clerks who know lit
tie about their employers real pro-
duction problems and needs.
All over this country newspapers,
labor leaders, and congressional in
vestigating committees have re-
vealed the waste of labor in our war
plants. The most recent case was
the charge of Senator Mead Of New
York, concerning wholesale loafing
at the Norfolk shipyards. But not
once has there been a single esti-
nation of the claimed manpower
needs of a single employer.
Labor draft legislation will be in
effective because it makes no pro-
vision for solving our real labor
supply problems.
These problems are:
Poor and inadequate housing and
transportation; low and discrimi-
natory wages, color and religious
discrimination; inefficient training
and supervision of new workers
deliberate waste of labor; high
health and other qualifications the
workers must meet; failure to ap-
ply corrective measures for absen-
teeism and turnover after careful
study Of the problems.

THE LABOR DRAFT AND FEp(
By George F. McCray

A bill passed by the house of rep
resentatives to draft American la
Dor is now waiting for action by the
senate. The bill provides for fines
and Imprisonment for men between
the ages of 18 and 45 who refuse to
accept essential war work at the di-
rection of their draft boards. The
labor draft bill was ordered by Mr..
Roosevelt and delivered to him
manly by anti-labor, anti-Negri
and generally unprogressive ele-
ments in the country. The bill was
passed by the house over the bitter
opposition of the CIO and AFL. The
draft labor groups had the support
of people, including two Negro con-
gressmen, who really ought to know
better.
The unprogressive and reaction
airy group in Washington has been
strengthened tremendously. 1t has
moved from one triumph after an
other. First, it was the recreation
of the ill-famed Dies committee, re-
fusal to increase social security
taxes, then there was the establish
ment of a business dominated State
department, and now the blocking
of Henry Wallace in one breath
while drafting labor in the next. At

the way things look now it will take
a miracle to get through congress
legislation to create permanent
FEPC.
Yet, without permanent FEPC
labor draft legislation will be a mon
strous joke. In effect congress will
be saying to employers and the
whole country: eve are ready to
send to jail the worker who harms
the war by refusing to work where
we say he is needed, but even though
you, as an employer actually re-
sponsible for production, would fail
to turn out production because of
your prejudices.agai the workers
we send to you, nobody, not even
the congress Of the United States
will touch a single hair in your
heads"
Without a permanent FEPC the
white worker could be punished for
refusing to work with Negroes, but
the employer would not be punished
for refusing to hire Negroes. More
over, the worker would be compelled
to accept the employer under what
ever conditions offered, but the en-
ployer is not even required to ex-
plain why the worker is unaccept-
able to him.
Of course the CIO and the AFL,
are the railroad brotherhoods are
bitterly opposed to the labor draft,
They know any draft law which
congress is likely to pass at this
time will not solve our real labor
supply problems. They even doubt
that President Roosevelt and con-
gressional leaders really understand
the manpower situation. And that
goes for the army and navy who
have absolutely no way Of their own
of determining the manpower needs
Of the country.
Somebody, presumably Mr.. Nc
Mutt of the War Manpower commits

Lone Ranger Loses Out as Pupils
Pick Nesbit as Radio Fuvorite

A teacher said it was remarkable
how the children responded to sug-
gestions made in class discussion
groups to improve their taste in
radio. In a few weeks, she said, it
was noticeable that Kate Smith was
being deserted for opera and Kay
Kyser for Leopold Stokowsky.
One 15-year-old girl said that
when she was little she liked the
Lone Ranger, but now that she was
in ninth grade she realized there
were much more important things
to listen to.
One of the teachers asked if the
soap operas were not developing a
sentimental Nation, -one that could
be easily swayed by the emotional
ism OF demagoguess.
"Do They Ever End?"
Mrs. Frances Wilder. Columbia
Broadcasting System "consultant on
daytime Serials" defended them
They help women do their house
work, she said. One woman had
written in that she had done her
ironing tor 10 years to a single serial
Miriam Sondler, one of the school
children, asked, Mrs. Wilder, do
those soap operas intend to ever
come to an end?"
The answer was lost in laughter.
The other children were William
Edlowitz, Archie Beard, David Rich
wine, Alice Bedrosian, Dorothy
Quade, Helen Potts, Charles Red
mond, Charles Gott, Frea Motsinger,
Frances Chuck, Wilbur Crosen,
Gloria Woody, Irving Lee, Frank
Hollis, Rebecca Smith, Monroe Le-

Kate Smith and the Lone Ranger
are No. l and 2 radio favorites with
the public according to a recent in
dustry survey, but not with sample
of -Washington's ninth-grade school
children who testified last night at a
discussion group in the Interior De-
partment radio studio.
The Overwhelming favorite of these
II children from Jefferson Junior
High School in Southwest was John
Nesbit, who tells scientific and his
torical stories on Sundays between
songs by John Charles Thomas.
That pleased the ring of school
principals, teachers and parent
teacher association members who
questioned the children at this meet
ing under the sponsorship of new
organization known as the Associa-
tion for Education by Radio.
Listen as They Study.
But they were visibly disturbed to
learn that many of the school chill
dren are in the habit of listening te
the radio while they are studying.
Maybe it's case of their being
both eye-minded and ear-minded,
said one teacher hopefully. Maybe
some of them can do both at the
same time"
Eleven children testified they lis
tened to the radio four hours a day
except on Sundays. Then they lis
tened longer.
Eleven held up their hands when
asked if they liked the movies better
than radio, but all of them said they
spent more time with the radio than
at the movies.
Parents said they would rather moi
have their children listening to mys-
terry dramas, horror stories and pop
ular music on the radio.
One Mother Likes Them.
Il like mystery dramas myself,
said one mother, "but I wish they
were on only after IL o'clock when
the children are in bed"
