900 casualties IN one day.
Thursday the marines at the GEN.
ter of the Two line attacked north
ward toward the airport in the CEN
ter of the island. They breasted
heavy fire from small arms, mortars,
and automatic weapons.
JAP INFILTRATION
Coupled with repeated counterat-
tackS during the night were inces-
SAINT Japanese attempts to infiltrate
the American positions. Nim1tz SAID
that on the line across the island
the marines successfully resisted
the pressure" of the counterattackS.
On the. southern end of the island,
marine forces at noon began an
assault on the face of Mt. Suribachi,
from the heights of which the jap
anese were shelling the American
held strip across Two.
U. S. warships standing off Two
maintained a steady, invasion-long
bombardment Of the Japanese posi-
tions. Naval planes defieo rain and
other unfavorable weather condi-
tions to support the marines with
heavy bombing, strafing. and rocket
attacks.
A force of japanese bombers and
fighters attacked the ships off the
island at sunset Wednesday. Nimitz

by Senators Warren R. Austin, tR)
Vermont, and Miuard E. Tydings
Cd. Maryland. which were ten
tatively added Wednesday.
The Austin amendment would
make penalty provisions of the Sec
ond war powers act-sl0,000 fine OF
one year in jail-apply to any per-
son who violates regulations under
the proposed new manpower law.
The Tydings amendment would
make selective service act penalties
$1,000 fine or five years i'm
prisonment-apply to any person not
acceptable for combat service who
quits a farm job, for which defer
ment has been granted, without ap-
proval of the local draft board.
HOW PENALTIES APPLY
Thomas said the Tydings amend
ment penalties would apply to en-
ployes, while those of the Austin
amendment would effect only en-
ployerS.
The committee approved a new
Tydings farm labor deferment am
endment offered by Senator Millard
E. Tydings, CD, Maryland. 1t would
forbid local draft boards to con-
slider the armed forces manpower
needs in gauging the essentially of
a farm worker.
1t was offered in protest against
a selective service ruling last month
which farm state senators said
violated the existing Tydings am
endment to the selective service act
The original amendment provides
for deferment or irreplacable farm
labor engaged in full time produc-
ton of essential crops.
FARM LABOR
Under the new amendment local
boards in considering farm labor
cases would have to base their de-
examinations solely on whether the
worker is producing essential farm
crops and whether a suitable re-
placement can be found.
Meanwhile, Senator Harley M
Kilgore, (D), West Virginia, assert
ed that the committees substitute
is superior to the house-approved
work or fight bill because it would
cover all manpower while the house
measure would apply only to men
18 to As.
The substitute also meets PreSi-
dent Roosevelt's request for total
mobilization of the nations human
resources, Kilgore said.

sorry ARBITRATION for the i'm
partial adjudication of labor disputes
without interruption of productive
enterprise has been made major OBJ
jective by the Veterans of Foreign
Wars, an organization composed en-
tirely of American veterans with
wartime overseas service.
Returning veterans have special
interest in the maintenance of indus
trial peace in the United States, as
national Commander Joseph M.
Stack of the Veterans of Foreign
Wars asserts.
They are coming home to begin
the reconstruction of their lives,
their homes and families.
They have the promise of the
country of restoration of former en-
ployment, and of preference in new
employment.
Instead, thousands of them have
come home to find their old jobs
wiped out by strikes and their oppor-
tunities for new jobs destroyed by
strikes.
WHAT are these promises
w WORTH to the American vet
eran, Commander Stack pointedly
asks the nation to consider, if the job
to which he expected to return or
which he hoped to obtain no longer
EXISTS?
"UnlesS current strikes are set
tied or stopped Immediately, and
threatened work Stoppages fore
stalled" he anxiously and urgently
warns, "the readjustn1ent provisions
of the CT Bill of Rights lUill become
mere WORDS ON PAPER"
A decent job, place to live,
chance to establish his family in a
wholesome American environment
these are the NECESSITIES of the
returning veteran.
