GLUTTONs FOR PUNISHMENT

~ savers and sef-proclamed liberals" recently

two big wars at one time were not enough.
Some members of the group, with others, have

HOW ABOUT WAR BONDS?

THE LAST word will not have been said about
wisdom of buying war bonds until common
is reached in the public mind that
the most substantial investments to be found any
where are Government bonds. The loosest-wag-
ging- tongues must admit that the Government OF
the United States is 100 per cent safe, sound and
substantial and that it's securities could not col
lapse until everything else went to the bow-wows.
This means that war bonds are better than cur
rency or gold or silver - because they are in fact
United States money, and they draw small
amount of interest for all purchasers Of bonds.

LOW WAGE SCALES AND HEALTH

JUSTICE FOR VETERANS

Under The ruling of Jesse Freidin, general
- counsel for the NWLB, veterans returning
from this war will be entitled to their old Jobs at
the level of pay to which they would have been
entitled if there had been no break in their length
of service with the company. Each is therefore
to receive any increase which his job would have
carried with it during his absence. That makes
sense Surely il would not have been fair to re-
quire a veteran to forfeit wage increases granted
to fellow workers who were not called to the
service.

SEABEES BATTLE STORM
TO FREE LIBERTY SHIP

Washington, ID. C. QLNS)-In a
45-hour battle against wind, rain, and
sea, Navy Seabees unloaded 1,150
tons of cargo from a heavily-laden
Liberty ship to refloat the vessel
which had been trapped in reef
studded New Guinea bay, the Navy
Departments Industrial Incentive Di-
vision says.
The Seabees, members of Special
(Stevedore) Battalion, were pressed
into service when the freighter ran
aground so miles from their advanced
base. Transported aboard second
Liberty ship and accompanied by a
LMCs Landing Craft Medium),
which were to be used as lighters, the
Seabees reached the grounded vessel
at nightfall.
Despite torrential rains and high
winds which lashed the sea and sent
the LMC's pitching and crashing
against the side of the beached vessel,
the Seabee stevedores went to work.
While the sea threatened to pound the
ship to pieces on the coral reefs, Sea-
bees unloaded cargo over the side into
the bounding LMC's. These craft
ferried the cargo across the heavy
seas to the rescue ship, where it was
unloaded by other Seabees.
With practically no sleep or food
during the entire period, the Seabees
discharged 300 tons of material, 6OC
tons of fuel and 250 tons of water
before the ship fioated free.
The Seabees' work was not finished
however, the unloading process was
reversed and the cargo was reloaded
and restowed aboard the freighter
before the latter was able to con-
tinue its journey.

Pefonites Riot
In Buenos Aires

BUENOS AIRES, Oct. II (UP)
Striking labor followers of Col.
Juan d. Peron shut down all
transportation and business in the
suburbs Of Buenos Aires today in
a riotous demonstration for the
release of the deposed Argentine
Strongman.
Buenos Aires itself was quiet
this morning, but all reports indi-
Gated that police outside the
capital were giving the Peron fol-
lowers a free hand.
The rioters burned street cars
and buses, closed down the main
suburban meat packing plants and
effectively sabotaged the South
ern Railway suburban system by
cutting the signal and telegraph
lines.
The outbreak came at critical
moment in the Argentine political
impasse when leaders of the new
military triumvirate were strug-
Cling to form a civilian cabinet
over the opposition of the Peron-
istas and the powerful Socialist
party-itself vigorous opponent
of Peron.
