plOyed workers had received in
 war plants before being laid
 off.
 For example, in Atlanta men who had previously earned $1.10 an hour were being offered only 57 cents, and women who had been paid 95 cents were offered a mere 46 cents.
 What made their plight even worse, the survey disclosed, was that, besides taking nearly a 50 per cent cut in hourly rates they had to suffer a further loss in "take-home" pay because the new jobs were on a 40-hour week, whereas previous ones were on 48-hour schedules, with time and a half rates for overtime. The re- suit is 8 disastrous collapse in their purchasing power.

Union Man
 Defeats X-BOss

MT. John DeFanti's famous bowl ing match was held Friday night at Pete Scuris' Alleys. Needless to say John came through with fly ing colors, with an average of 112 for six games. When the dead ducks were counted Johnny had a margin of 56.
 John DeFanti's 132 to 102 on the first string set a hard to beat score, Although Big Mike Bychowski fought hard to overcome Johnnie's lead, the first string really settled his hash.
 Mike took his defeat gracefully and he set 'em up not only for Johnny but a gang of E. B. boys who came to eagerly watch the match. The IBEW can really say that JOHN DIDN'T LET THEM DOWN.
 There were over a hundred spec tators from the E. B. from the Su- perintendent down to the smaller fry and Union buddies of Johns.

Graduates Hear
Call TO Make
Lives Worthwhile

Combine purpose, obedience,
work enthusiasm, and responsibility
to spell power" Elwood Bailey ad-
vised Central Union High school
graduates at commencement exer-
ciseS in Ell Centro Thursday night,

create a successful life"
The speaker, manager of the San

out that no life could be happy, sue
cessful, and worthwhile without a
l, purpose or aim. He explained that
ali must learn obedience sometime
in life. Nothing is gained without
work, he declared, and without en-
thusiasm there is no hope of ac-
complishment. All must carry re-
sponsibilities which come their way
or be useless member of any COM
munity.
The war was injected into the
commencement program when only
"a of the SO graduates were pres
ent to receive their diplomas from
Roy H. Womack, president of the
school board of trustees, the other
four serving their country in the
armed forces.
One of the highlights of the pro-
gram was Miss Elinor Doyle's pres
entation CT a $100 scholarship to
Etelka Knietz for her work in Miss
Doyle's commercial class Miss Doyle
presented the $100 as personal,

La Toilette Sees
Imperialism as
impending Danger

WASHINGTON. June l. (UP)-
Sen Robert M. La Toilette CPD Wis.
accuses the Big Three Allies of fol-
lowing path toward a short truce
instead of permanent peace.
In his first major senate speech
on foreign policy during the war,
La Toilette severely criticized the
world security organization program
as it now is being drafted at San
Francisco.
unless we change our direction
soon," he said, I'VE shall find that
our fantastic expenditure of men,
money and materials has bought us
only a short and uneasy peace-not
the enduring peace we seek"
La Toilette accused Russia of
| flouting the Atlantic Charter and
| the Yalta agreement.
1MPERIALISTIC TONE
Her present demands and her
methods seem more in accord with
the old imperialistic purposes and
methods of the Czarist regime than
with those of the early days of her
revolution" he said.
He dealt similarly with Great
Britain.
And he protested against United
States acquiescence and failure to
use its tremendous bargaining pow
er to combat imperialism.
Il am no more prepared to COM
init the United States to enforcing
British rule over India, Burma or
Malta than I am to commit nv
country to enforcing Russian domi-
nation over Poland, Romania or
Austria" he said.
La Toilette proposed six amend
ments to the world security charter
now being drafted at San Francisco
because I do not believe that in
its present form it is sufficiently
practical"
OLD STYLE SET-UP
He described the Dumbarton Oaks
agreement, which provided the
foundation for the San Francisco
conference, as "a gilded facade for
the old-Style military alliance built
exclusively on force or the threat
OF force.' r
In other words" he said, "it is
the type of alliance which great
European powers have employed all
through history without ever pre-
venting war"
La Toilette said he feared that
the possibilities and purposes of the
San Francisco conference have been
"oversold" to the American people
and possibly to other peoples of the
world.
For weeks sustained mislead-
ing propaganda has been carried on
to put over the fantastic idea that
the future peace and security of the
world depended solely on the out
come of this conference" he said.
WORK STILL REMAINS
Conceding that the work of the
conference is important, he said
the equally important task of writ
ing a just and honorable peace still
remains to be done after the secur-
ity organization is agreed upon.
ANY enduring peace must ulti-
mately depend upon the decisions
as to what finally happens in Po-
land, Italy, Greece, Burma, Malay,
the Philippines and with other areas
liberated from the yoke Of Axis tyr
amy" he said. "It also depends
upon what is done with conquered
Germany and Japan"
