THE Detroit Board of Education
Il has acted with wisdom in select
ing Arthur Dondineau as the new
superintendent of schools.
No public official deals more
directly with the future of Detroit
than the school superintendent. Our
mothers and fathers may feel sense
of deep qualification that the board
chose a man who has played a dis
tinguished part in ottr- public school
system since 1921.

timely death of Supt. Warren E.

~ appealing address at the Japa-

But the speech will have been in
vain if the request that 1T conveyed
does not receive a full-hearted re-

In his supreme hour of triumph
the conqueror of Nippon had fore
most in his own thoughts the suffer
ings and the sacrifices of the men in

TOR those who return to us manned
Il or disabled there is nothing that
the people of America are not
anxious to do.
The Veterans Administration ex-
lists as the special custodian of their
welfare.
But the greater number of those
who have served abroad have fortu-
nately not been casualties, or have
not been incapacitated for civil pur-,
suits: and they desire and they de-
serve the fullest opportunities to live
usefully and self -reliantly among
their fellow countrymen.
AS they arrive back in their home
towns they will want, most of all,
EMPLOYMENT.
And it is the paramount duty of
Congress to make certain that oppor
tunities for employment are not de-
MED to them NOR CURTAILED IN
ANY WAY.
CONGRESS has passed some legis-
~ lation to restore or to establish
the veterans to their rightful places
in our social system.
But Congress has not done its full
duty.
The existing legislation is defec-
tive-so defective that veterans re-
turning to their former jobs, under
a supposed guarantee in the law, are
compelled to compete with nonvet-
Grams and, by interpretations of the
word seniority" the veterans may
be pushed aside.

Public DUTY No. L

InlS, as Feuerdl Judge ADruzZo
has ruled in a Brooklyn test case, was
not the intention of Congress.
But Judge Abruzzo's decision,
unless Congress improves the law,
may be reversed in some higher-and
more politically subservient-federal
court.
Congress can prevent that out
come, and Congress must do so.
Shortly before the congressional
recess, Rep. Knutson of Minnesota
introduced a bill, sponsored by the
Veterans of Foreign Wars, which
would give veterans employment
seniority ratings based upon their
days served in the armed forces.
That bill will benefit the men who
were called away from jobs.
It is fact, however, that the
Knutson bill>will assist only about
one fourth of the veterans.
1T CANNOT help the millions of
Il lads who were not employed
mainly because of their youth-be-
fore the war.
These young men will now want
to begin their life work.
There is no good reason why jobs
should not be available FOR ALL
OF THEM.
The country needs their work as
much as they need to work.
It will not be sufficient for Con.
gress and the states merely to main
tain employment services to help
these veterans find jobs.
Ii IS eUen more necessary for
Congress and the Legislature to as
sure that they DiH not be shut out OF
jobs by arbitrary union rufes or con.
tracts, or by equally arbitrary de-
cisions of labor boards.
The veteran going back to his old
Job should by all means have top
rating in seniority.
That is his unquestionable right.
VETERANS seeking their first jobs
' should have something equivalent
in the way of preference over other
novices and of equality or better with
previously employed nonveterans in
the pursuit of employment.
There is no time to waste.
The soldiers and sailors are re-
turning now in everincreasing num-
bers.

as Gen. Macarthur solemnly said.

PAUL
MALLON
Behind
The News

w foolishness is starting up
again.
Nevada's Senator McCarran
has introduced a bill and Cali
MAS Downey is promoting IL, TO
reduce the federal payroll sit
ters' work-week TO 80 hours
5 hours a day, 6 days a week
a sort of WPA without shovels.
Mr.. Truman reduced ii from
as to 40 hours at the wars end,
and now the New Dealing sena-
tors are trying to drop II TO
80, with the usual hour or so
for lunch, no doubt, and 30
days vacation with pay and 30
days sick leave (usable for
headaches or whims.)
This would make a federal
Job so nice, you would hardly
have 10 go TO work at all.
Behind this proposal is the
overmanned condition of the
federal pay roll.
In war, anyone could get
Job doing anything or nothing
here-and did.
Stenogs who did not know
how TO put paper in a type
writer, drew their salaries and
got away with it, through help
of associates who did know how
to work.
Now there is little to do. yet
no one wants to give up the
soft jobs.
They want to keep all the
war employees on the pay roll,
and share the work by reduc-
ing the work week, all at the
expense of the workingman in
this country who pays taxes, TO
support more people than are
needed 10 run the government.
IT is plainly evident. and con-
L ceded by all, this nation
would be at its best for all the
people if every man was en-
ployed in full production of his
energy and talents.
In this world of financial fic-
tions. only production is real
wealth. We saw this so clearly
in the war.
We won because we mar
shaled our productivity beyond
that of any other nation and
fully supplied the victory of
every Allied nation.
They could not do the Job.
Their productivity was insult
ficient to meet the task.
With prices, money, federal
debts and all financial factors
running toward initiation, the
ability of an individual to pro-
duoe, is the main guarantee OF
a safe place for him.
Economically also. his work
generates more work for more
people.
He produces an auto, and per-
maps lOU men get a living from
that auto. dealer, salesman,
mechanic, shipping clerk, rail-
road agent, gasoline filling sta
ton proprietor, etc. If he did
not produce that auto, the 100
would suffer.
If 1000 men did not produce
autos, 100000 would fail of their
livelihood.
Now inject into the system a
reduction of the work week. Cut
ii from 4S to 40, then 80, per-
haps 20, 10 or one, and you cut
the h cart muscles of your
system.
