Hard and cruel have been the lives of
young ones in war-torn countries. Children
like these-3O million of them are hungry,
homeless, nearly naked. Deaths from ex-
posture are often as many as deaths from
starvation. tuberculosis and typhus run
rampant among them.
Never will their brave hearts forget the
horrors of war. Never will their grateful
hearts forget your gift of the clothing they so
sorely need clothing which now hangs un-
used in your closet or reposes forgotten in
your attic.

America must help clothe about 125 mill

Some of that clothing must be yours as
much as you can spare.

On TheScene
 In Washington
By Travis K. Hedrick

WASHINCTON-Our American freedom of the press is jewel each of us ought to cherish and know more about. It is frequently abused by those who enjoy it, and others use the phrase loosely to cloak &C., tivities that should land them in the nearest jail.
 However the freedom of the press is now being attacked by Rep. John Rankin CD. Miss.) in his effort to have the House cite a reporter for the New York Newspaper PM for contempt
 The reporter, Albert Deutsch, wrote splendid series of stories ex- posing conditions in the U. s. Vet erans Administration and veterans hospitals. He got his material from interviews, and correspondence, with many doctors in and out of the Vet erans Administration. This list of doctors includes some of the highest professional standing" Deutsch said.
 Rankin, who is chairman of the Veterans committee of the House. was irked at the revelations, and eager for the scalps of the talka- tive government doctors, he de- handed that Deutsch give the names of his informants. This was properly refused by Deutsch. No newspaperman worthy of the name would do so under any circum- stances.
 So Rankin got his committee to hold Deutsch for contempt and is pressing for House action to make the case stick.
 PMS Managing Editor, John P. Lewis termed the Rankin action Gan application of the Mississippi lynch law to the American press. What it means is that no public emplOye may dare talk to a report er-much less give him informa- tion-withOut running the danger of reprisals and investigation by the Rankin gestapO. If this lynch ing is upheld, it will erect a barrier to prevent free press from per- forming its function of exposing and correcting corruption or mis- management of government
 Pres. Milton Murray of the Ameri- can Newspaper Guild, a PM scribe termed the Deutsch- Rankin case a challenge to the rights of news papermen."
 American newspapers and news papermen will fight this newest Ran kin outburst to the last ditch. They will guard their interests here with mutual concern, but there is another side to newspapermen here that is not so good.
 PRESS GALLERIES
 With hundreds of Negro news papers over the nation, and with Negro newspaper reporters almost universally accepted, they are barred from the press galleries in the U. s. Capitol.
 One of them, Harry McAlpin of the Atlanta Daily World, is &C., credited to the White House, but so far McAlpin has had no luck in

however, is to again file his bid and, when turned down by the standing committee of cOrrespOn- dents (elected by newspapermen covering Congress) he proposes to file suit against them for violation of the Sherman antitrust act.
 Johnson will contend that the standing committee is conspiring to keep news from a large group of newspapers in restraint of trade.
 The committee is headed /by Sam Bell of the New YorkHeraId- Tribune and includes John Cutter of the United Press, William Knighton of the Baltimore Sun, Elizabeth May Craig of the Portland Press, and Bukley Griffin of the Boston TraveIer.

 "JOB-SEEKINC boys and girls who leave home should carry proof of their age with tn em,'' Miriam Thurman, New England child labor consultant of the ChiIdren's Bureau, U. s. Department of La Dor, warned today. Otherwise, many of these youngsters may find themselves away from home, with limited funds, and losing out on job opportunities because without proof of age they cannot get a work permit or employment cer- tifcate.
 STATE Director William J. Fitz- gerald of the War Manpower Com mission today announced that the Ia offices of the United States En- ployment Service had 22,67l job openings on order from Connecti- cut employers as of May list. This was drop of four per cent as conn., pared with those on April 1st.
 Seven offices in the state, the director said, reported increases in the number of openings on order. The largest proportional increase occurred in Norwalk with a rise of 60 per cent; Meriden, up $ per cent and Stamford, 50 per cent higher. Some II offices reported declines in the number of job openings for that period.

 THE STORY was about lack of rubber for false bOsoms, and the Louisville (Ky.) Times, headed it ''Built-in Bosom Business Sag ging," with mandate line reading, ''WMC's Edict Hurts Morale on All Fronts" Soon after the paper hit the street, a woman called Manag- ing Editor A. Y. Aronson and com plained the head was ''Obscene. g ''The word is robust, madam," he corrected gently.
 STRIKE losses during the war have been only l/lO of l per cent of time put in by the nations work CTS, yet newspapers, instead of lauding labor for that showing, have denounced unions because the observance of their no-strike pledge wasn't 100 per cent perfect.
 Secretary-Treasurer C. eorg e Meany of the A. F. of L. this week struck back at the press smears by challenging the newspapers to cite an equally good record anywhere else on the home front.
 ''Is there anyone who would say price control has been 100 per cent effective?" he demanded. ''Is there anyone with gall enough to claim we handled our manpower prob lem 100 per cent effectively? Have we been 100 per cent perfect in our effort to eliminate the black market?
 ''Has the promise to keep pro- fits out of war been carried out 100 per cent? I dare say that a fair comparison would make la- bor's record stand up mighty well.'

BY ROBERT MCCLELLAN

With the return of discharged

greater numbers the jokers in the
laws concerning them become in
creaslngly more serious.
Three veterans are laid off by
an industrial plant. because of
unions seniority rules, despite the
fact that section eight of the Sc
lective Service Act guarantees
them their job for one year.
The unions willingness TO date
the seniority back to Pearl Har-
bor Day or the entrance of a
veteran into the service seems
qualified by the demand that he
serve the six months proba iionary
period on the job before he gets
any seniority.
