 Organized labor needs no special urging to continue working on the production lines. The amazing o,1an- titles of tanks, guns, planes and ships produced by American workers is eloquent testimony that labor knows why we are in this fight. Labor is also aware of the tremendous task that lies ahead. It has hot shirked its responsibilities up to now, and it will not do so i'll the future.
 ''SO far as labor is concerned victory in the Pacific will not mean that the job has been completed. The war will have been won, but the peace will still have to be won. And in this hour of partial victory labor is dedicated not only to work for total victory in the war, but to strive for just and lasting peace. Only as this is attained can it be truly said that our loved ones have not died in vain.'

Executive Council
 :. Warns Of Danger
WASHINGTON. D q.

WASHINGTON, ID. C. - Warning that further delay may result in widespread un- employment before the year is out, the AFL Executive Council this week urged the government to speed up re- conversion now.
 The call for action marked the opening of the councils Spring session in the nations capital which was tensely awaiting off, cial announcement of VIE Day.
 SUBSTANTIAL CUTS
 Smashing military victories in Europe already have brought about substantial cuts in war production, the executive council pointed out, and may mean that the war pro- ductiOn program will be slashed in half within a few months.
 "Under these circumstances" the council declared, Git is imperative that large-scale recOnversion pro- gram be undertaken at once. American industry must be given enough advance notice of cancel latiOn of war contracts so that it can proceed without unnecessary delay to put into effect plans for peacetime production which will provide jobs for displaced war workers and returning servicemen. Unless the recOnversion process is expedited, mass unemployment will grip America in 1945 and purchas- ing power will be reduced to such low point that expansion of post war production will be blocked" The council called upon. President , Truman to offset the shrinking of purchasing power by prevailing upon Congress to adopt legislation extend ing more adequate compensation bene- fits to displaced war workers. The council reminded the President that he himself had sponsored such legis- lation as Senator.
 In a further step to bolster the national economy, the council warned the National War Labor Board that the time is overdue to adjust wage rates to make up for the loss of over time pay which American workers will suffer when war production is c,lt.
 In the same statement, the council declared that events have justified the AFL's opposition to compulsory labor legislation. Despite defeat of such proposals in Congress, war production reached record heights in March, the council emphasized. Furthermore, nlanpower shortages have been eased throughout the country and several cities have been taken off the critical list. v~E
 HELP FOR WAR WORKERS
 ssMost important of all," the council said, voluntary labor in America has succeeded in backing up the victory drive on the fighting fronts with amazing success. Our armed forces have not lacked ma- terials or equipment. In fact, the overwhelming superiority of their PAOVCO tAC uCNAcAVO factor in winning the war in Europe and in turning the tide against Japan."
 AFL President William Green announced that the entire member ship of the Executive Council has : been invited to White House con- ference with President Truman.
 He said the council will consider at its current meeting recommendations to be submitted to the United Nations Conference at San Francisco on the creation of an international organiza- tion to safeguard world peace
 The council will also take up for ratification the charter of labor man. agement cooperation recently drawn up by organized labor and the United States Chamber of Commerce.

Silver Spring Hospital
Will Be A "G-P' Memorial
Spacious Site For Building Is Chosen = Facing
One OF Montgomery County's Scenic Parks

2ed Legislation authorizing the
County Commissioners TO pay $40,-
900 for site for the hospital out
Of the existing zoe suburban tax
on the Silver Spring area.
The remainder Of the cost Of the
site will be paid from the hospitals
treasury.
According to the association the
proposed hospital will be a modern,
fireproof structure. An architect
will be engaged shortly, but the
start Of actual construction will
necessarily have to be determined
by the availability of standard con-
struction materials. II is not pro-
posed to erect wartime hospital,
but rather, TO erect an enduring
memorial of great usefulness to all
Of Montgomery County.
II is proposed TO finance this
memorial as far as may be practi-
cal from the gifts Of the people.
The project is estimated to cost
around 100000. A program to
raise the necessary funds will be
developed little later when,
again, it will not interfere with
the financing Of the War effort.

Agricultural End Of
Bill Of Rights Ready

Local COmmttee-U. S. Guarantees Repayment

The agricultural end of the CT
Bill of Rights is "ready for bust
ness" in Frederick Montgomery
and Washington Counties, Virgil
o. Dolly, County Supervisor for the
Farm Security Administration said
today. He explained that the CT
Bill does not provide for loans by
the Government itself, but ar
ranges that Uncle Sam guarantee
the repayment of a portion of a
loan made to a veteran through
banks and other regular sources of
credit.
Mr.. Dolly outlined the process
of securing the loan step by step:
/. The veteran secures from the
Veterans Administration a certi-
fication of eligibility for the guar
antee. He is eligible if he served 80
days, was not dishonorably dis
charged and has not already used
his guarantee. Forms for this pur-
pose can be secured through the
Farm Security Administration or
the lending agency.
2. If he wants advice and speci-
fic information on technical farm
keting, ct Get. the veteran goes to
the office of County Agricultural
Agent, o. w. Anderson and his
Veterans Advisory Committee.
3. The veteran picks out his
farm, or if he is seeking a loan
for equipment or livestock, locates
the property he wishes to pur-
chase.

Fred L. Lutes, Chairman of the
Montgomery County Seventh War
Loan Drive today stressed the inn
portance of the sale of Series E
War Bonds in the County. The
County's quota in this Drive for
this type of security is $1y875, 900

Federal Reserve Bank shows sales
to date of only $2S6,877. in this
category. The same report shows
sales of all types of bonds to indi-
viduals at $493, 473. Since the
County's overall quota is $780,.
600, this represents only about
1870 of the overall quota.
MANY people," said Mt. Lutes,
apparently have lost sight of the
fact that the War Is not over; that
the expense of conducting a war
against japan will require enor-
nous amounts of money"
