is shocking, the association declares
in a plain-speaking report.
Anyone who has followed the news
in recent years knows there must be
at least some basis for the associa-
tion's charges. Time and time again
the press has reported instances of
Army court martial sentences which
have been reduced by one reviewing
body after another-open admission
that the original sentence was not JUS
titled. Congress would do well to make
a searching investigation and act with
decision, if the need is revealed.

words to say about lawyers at various

stated in the beginning, they have

the thanks of all persons interested

lean flag.

All Set For Occupation
OF Japan, G. rs Eager
For News About Jobs
By George Richardson
Special AFLWNS Correspondent


Guam.-America' vast land and
sea forces in the Pacific are ready to
undertake the tremendous job of oc-
cupying the japanese home islands.
Overjoyed by the end of the war, the
men in the armed forces and their
leaders do not hesitate to accord Am
erican labor large share of credit
for the quick victory.
They know now that superiority OF
American fighting equipment in the
air and afloat was the key factor in
breaking down Japan's resistance anc
they appreciate the fact that Ameri-
can workers back home produced the
goods.
Especially is this feeling true with
regard to the atomic bomb, which
proved to be the victory clincher. The
War Departments official acknowl-
edgement of labor's vital role in the
production of this terribly destructive
weapon helped to swing the tide of
G. l. opinion in favor of labor
The attitude of the men in uniform
out here was summed up by Gen
Robert C. Richardson, Commanding
the United States Army Forces in the
Middle Pacific Area, who told us at
Honolulu:
$50 far as l know, the Army has
never been short of supplies because
of labor's activities. In fact, we have
been the constant beneficiary of the
hard working war-minded Americans
working on the assembly lines, on the
docks, in the mines and on merchant
ships. Supplies and equipment go tc
troops in the field because labor and

the Army play on the same team. l
am satisfied that the total efforts OF
labor can be called one Of the bright
spots of the war"
The fighting men out here realize
that most of them are due for long
spell of occupation duty before getting
back home Nevertheless, as we rep
resentatives of the labor press continue
the tour of the Pacific arranged for
us by the War and Navy Departments,
all the G. rs we talk to seem to have
one question uppermost in their minds.
It's this:
whats the chances of me getting
good job when | get back home 7"
Naturally, we suppose the govern
ment, labor and private industry in
America are trying to provide the
specific answers to that question right
now. All we can tell Uncle Sans sol
diers and sailors is that their pros
poets basically depend on the attain
ment of full employment in America
as soon as reconversion is completed.
And we have to keep on repeating to
them that the stories they've heard
about swollen pay envelopes for war
workers are lot of bunk.
One final report to the parents of
the boys serving out here-they're in
good spirits and in good health. Uncle
Sam is taking care of them as though
they were his own kids-and they are.
| might add that he's also taking good
care Of the labor press representatives
on this trip. We're having wonder
full time.

Labor Day Salute
By REAR ADMIRAL G. HI.
WOODWARD, USN

Chief of Industrial Incentive Division
On this Labor Day, the U. S. Navy
salutes with extra pride the men anc
women of Americas shipyards, ar
senals and factories whose production
has brought about the victory fo1
which we all have been laboring. That
salute rings from our fighting men all
over the world-from deep inside con-
quered territories, from distant atolls
from beachheads still Uttered with
tragic wreckage from all of those
thousands who daily were thankful
for the devotion and skill of those
working for them back on the home
front.
American labor in the past year
has written an epic of accomplish
ment into history. 1t was the might
of Americas production lines, provid-
ing our fighting men with the tools
to do the job, that brought Germany
down to defeat. That same might
drove home to the Japs the hopeless
ness of continued resistance.
But behind the astronomical vol
ume of ships, planes, weapons and
supplies and the gigantic sum total
of this accomplishment, has been the
contribution Of each individual. The
courage and patience and quiet
strength of every worker in every
plant are the simple things which
made up this miracle that led to vic
tory. There is no better time than on
this Labor Day to relay to labor the
Navy's all-out thanks for this out
standing production achievement.

LABOR DAY MESSAGE
BY George Meany

Secretary Treasurer of the A F. of L.
For the first time in years, the
working people of our nation are
marking a Labor Day under condi-
tions of peace. In May the arrogant
men who had taken NaZi Germany
down the path to aggressive warfare
were forced to surrender and last
month the japanese warlords emulated
their erstwhile Axis partners. Thus
the most destructive war in the worlds s
history has come to an end--victory
| for democratic America and our allies,
total defeat for those who thought we
were soft and planned to enslave the
world. We give thanks to the Almighty
for giving us the strength to subdue
the enemies Of all humanity.
We rejoice that victory has come
and we salute the brave men Of all the
armed services-the Army and the
Navy, the Marine Corps and the Coast
Guard-for their mighty contribution
to that historic achievement. We also
salute the millions of patriotic Ameri-
can men and women who worked so
hard for weary months and years on
the home front and whose overwhelm-
ing production of ships and planes and
bombs and the many thousands of
other items vital in modern warfare
provided our men in uniform with the
tools which they needed to hammer
the Nazis and Japs to their knees.
On this Labor Day of 1945 we are
already confronted with the grave
problem Of finding jobs for millions
of discharged war workers as well as
for those who have already been re-
leased from the armed services. But
as the days pass, this problem will
become even more serious, for the de-
mobilization Of the Army and Navy
| has scarcely begun.
America must provide employment
for all who want and need jobs. We
believe in our economic system, which
enabled us to attain victory over foes
who had enjoyed long headstart in
preparation for war. We believe that

JUST AS LABOR PREDICTED

Labor and industry in the last
months have protested against Army
Navy resistance to planning for re.
conversion or even talking about it
Cutbacks Sc e,med called for several
months ago to permit gradual resump-
tion of civilian production, for allo-
cation of more materials for retooline
and manufacture. The sudden cancel
lation of virtually all war contracts
is sudden shock to the nations aeon
omy, particularly when manufacture
ers have not had fair chance to pre-
pare for peace while the war was on.
AS result, the reconversion period
will in all probability last longer and
unemployment will be more prolong-
ed, just as labor predicted.
Now that the damage has been done,
the sound course is for labor and in
dustry to keep cool heads, fight any
fear psychology, cooperate in every
way possible for early resumption of
peace time production and otherwise
refrain from rocking the boat" For
tunately, there are indications that
this course is being followed. which
brightens the outlook for the morths

WHAT NEXT?

A new lightweight container, pro-
vided with very efficient insulator,
will make it possible to ship foods
cross-country on the slowest freight
train without any refrigeration what
soever. The food will be frozen to
about 140 degrees F., then packed in
the container and sealed. When the
container is opened after the cross
country journey, the temperature of
the food will still be below zero.

COMMENT ON WORLD EVENTS

With the defeat of the Japanese En-
pire and the occupation of the home
islands by American and Allied troops,
the Bureau of Mines has made public
two large-scale maps of Japan proper
showing the location Of the important
mines and metallurgical plants, oil re-
fineries, synthetic oil plants, and
chemical works which fall to the Unit
ed Nations as prizes of war.
From the oil fields of Hokkaido,
the northernmost Of Japan's larger
islands, to the industrialized area
around what was Nagasaki on Kyushu,
the big southern island, the bureaus
maps reveal at a glance the magni-
tude of the network of mines and
plants that helped Nippon to fight a
long war.
Despite Japan's secretiveness fol-
many years and the virtual blackout
of enemy information since Pearl Har-
Dor, the Bureau of Mines was able to
collect columinous information about
Japan's mines and mineral resources

Ickes disclosed.

ming the future.
The information gathered by the
bureau reveals that Japan proper con
tains a great variety of minerals, but
the country is not adequately self suf
ficient in any class to support the
vast industrial state that had beer
established before and during the
war, according to DR.. R. R. Sayers
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1945-08-31

our economic system can function
smoothly and effectively in peace as
well as in war.
Not only do we say that there must
be jobs for all who are able and will
ing to work but we intend to tell how
this goal can be reached. Short hours
and high pay are the key to full en-
ployment in America. Our technology
cal advances even before the war had
been so extensive that we could turn
out untold quantities of almost any
industrial product in short time; the
application of new production methods
developed during the war will great
ly increase the productivity of the in
dividual wage-earner. A short work
week therefore becomes imperative.
But unless the worker can earn suf-
ficient pay even in reduced work
week, prosperity will be impossible
of attainment. The people of our coun-
try are the champion consumers of all
times. Given the wherewithal, they will
buy what our manufacturers produce
and our merchants offer for sale. The
American domestic market is the
greatest market in the world-but it
takes purchasing power in the pockets
of the people, most of whom are de-
pendent upon wages, to make the
wheels go round.
The need is for larger share for
labor of the fruits of our wonderfully
efficient industry, so that our vaunted
American standard of living may be
enjoyed not only by the few but by all
who are willing to exert themselves
earnestly and efficiently. We of the
American Federation of Labor believe
in the profit motive because we be-
lieve in free enterprise, and there cam
not be the one without the other. But
whenNwe proclaim our allegiance to
free enterprise, as opposed to COM
munism, socialism or fascism, we mean
free enterprise as it ought to be and
as we intend to have it be-a system
under which the profit motive is not
reserved to the owners of industry.
Labor, which produces our wealth, is
entitled to it's full and fair share of
that wealth.
On this peacetime Labor Day let us
all solemnly resolve to strengthen
trade union organization during the
coming year. 1t is only through or
ganization that we who work for our
livelihood can make our voices heard
for the preservation of the peace we
have won and for the attainment of
better, fuller, more secure lives for
ourselves and our families under de-
mocracy. We face difficult days, but
we can solve the problems of peace
if we stand united and fight with
vigor for prosperity with peace. The
millions of brave young men who will
be returning to civilian life during the
weeks and months ahead look to us of
organized labor to lead the fight for
the kind of America for which they
fought and for which thousands of
their buddies gave their lives.

director of the bureau. Even with the
addition of minerals from Korea, Man
churia, Formosa, and the Mandate Is
lands, Japan still was dependent upon
other countries to keep it's industrial
machine working.
Japan's development as modern in
dustrial state has taken place in the
last II years, and the results have
been startling. The first modern iron
blast furnace was blown in at Yawata,
on Kyushu, in the year 1901; the first
modern zinc distillation plant in 1914;
and the first aluminium plant in 1884.
Although the charge has often been
made that the Japanese are imitators
and not originators, this is not borne
out by the facts. In the first adoption
of Western civilization, they naturally
would use all of the machinery and
methods found successful, but they
have their fair share of scientists and
inventors. These include DIR. T. Tanabe,
who developed stainless silver; DR.. T.
Mishima, special magnetic alloy made
of nickel and aluminium; Hironaka,
super heat heavy oil diesel engine for
small vessels, automobiles and air.
craft; DR.. Jokichi Takamin, the dis
coverer of adrenaline; DR.. Nishina,
physicist who discovered that the
strength of cosmic rays changes ac-
cording to temperature variations and
! longitude; and Masaru Mihara, who
invented a radio beacon that register
visually on radio compass in planes.
If the japanese had been allowed to
exploit fully the resources of the over
run countries and to harness the avail
able manpower, they could have been
on the road to world domination, DR..
