He declared this was no time to
make such an important decision as
the "emotions which are aroused dur
ing a war are not those on which a
seasoned, long-range judgment can
safely be based" Considerations of
national defense do not require de-
cision now, he said, since "it is evil
dent that at the conclusion of the
greatest war in history no immedi-
ate threat will confront the United
States"
In conclusion Angel pointed out
that millions of men in the armed
forces do have the opportunity to par
ticipate in this debate, men who have
borne the greatest burden of this war.
A democratic decision cannot be
reached without them" He urged
that any bills for postwar conscrip-
tion be tabled until after the termi-
nation of hostilities.

Delay Advocated
On Draft Bills

Washington, D. c. (ILNS).-Pas-

Postwar Military Policy, by Ernest
Angel, New York attorney, on behalf
of the American Civil Liberties Union
Angel is a member Of the unions
board of directors, chairman of the
Committee on Conscientious Directors
and an American Legionnaire.
Angel made points to the com.
mittee. He said it was obvious that
any form of compulsory service vic.
lates personal liberties and that "only
the gravest considerations can justify
the report to such general compul
sion as universal military training il

SHIP REPAIR NEEDS
CALLED "SERIOUS'

Washington, d. c. (ILNS) .-Reite-
rating the Navy's warning that West
Coast ship repair yards have been
steadily losing men at a rate which
is becoming Serious" Director v.
D. Chapline attributes the shortage
of skilled labor to the fact "the men
we need do not understand how seri-
Gus the situation is"
Directing his remarks to Pacific
Coast workers, the only group to be
given high priority draft deferment,
and to other skilled workers needed in
West Coast yards, Chapline said:
"For the past two months japanese
airplanes have swarmed in on our
fleet at Okinawa. Most of the planes
were shot down, but not all. In one
day alone IL of our ships were hit.
Not every day is that bad, but every
day is bad.
when the fires have been put out,
the dead buried and the wounded
cared for on the damaged ship, she
must be withdrawn. She must be re-
paired, sometimes rebuilt. Until that
is done, the ship is lost to the fleet,
it's guns are not there to meet the
next flock Of suicide divers dropping
through the clouds, when every gun
is needed.
"Those ships have to get back to
the fleet, and they have to get back
quickly" Admiral Chapline said. He
emphasized that war requirements for
highly skilled crafts electricians,
sheetmetal workers and machinists)
are growing at this critical stage of
the war-nOt lessening.

Cargo Handling By Seabees'
Battalion Makes History

Washington, d. C. (ILNS).-A
scpecial battalion of 1900 Seabees,
handling the biggest assault job of any
of the Seabees Specials, are making
cargo handling history on bloody Oki-
nawa. The battalion, made up of 2
divisions Of nine 80-men teams, suf-
fered Ia casualties in the early days
of the assault.
Unloading continued around the
clock on L-day, despite persistent Jap
hammering at American shipping.
On L-plus-1, cranes, bulldozers
and a number of flood-light trailers
were on the beaches. When the dis
charge of assault cargo was complet-
ed, the Seabees-with characteristic
nterprise-turned to evacuation and
construction work. They even helped
on the installation of anti-aircraft gun
emplacements, until the second eche-
Ion of supply ships arrived week
later.
The Seabee specialists, who have
been overseas 20 months, were lauded
for their work by one APA captain
veteran of 6 invasions and many
garrison supplying trips. He called
their work at Okinawa "the finest
have ever witnessed"

Farm Wages Reach
A Record High

Washington, D. c. (ILNS).-The u.
S. Department of Agriculture has re-
ported continuation of the upward
trend in farm wage rates to a new
record. All wage categories were high
er than 2 months ago. Monthly rates
averaged $3.50 with board and $931O
without board. Daily wages were 1885
with board and $4.16 without board.
These are all record highs, except for
wages per day with board, which were
exceeded slightly in October, 1914.
June l far wage rates were about
double those paid 3 years ago. On
June 1, 1912 wages per month aver
aged $41.5O with board and $5O.4O
without board Daily wages aver
aged $1.83 with board and $2.10 with
out board
Farm employment en- June 1, 1915,
at 10,994,000 persons, was seasonally
higher than on May 1, but was 291 900
or about 21s percent less than on June
/, 1914. Except in the northeast, total
farm employment was below year
ago throughout the entire U. S. The
largest percentage decreases occurred
in the East, South, Central and the
Pacific regions, where total farm en-
ployment dropped more than q per-
cent.

HOLIDAYS ON WAY BACK

The movement for restoration OF
holidays for federal government EN-.
ployes has gained momentum ano
three is a feeling in Washington that
President Truman will restore the
July A, Labor Day and Thanksgiving
holidays. Before this is printed, his
decision may have been announced.
International Labor News Service
and this paper have repeatedly point
ed out that government workers ef-
ficiency would undoubtedly increase
by restoration of the holidays and the
nation thereby would be the gamer.
The government is encouraging vaca-
tions for war workers; the argument
recently made by Chairman Krug of
the War Production Board for grant
ing vacations applies with equal force
to holidays. AS the Government Stand
ard, official organ of the American
Federation of Government Employees
remarks:
Everyone needs rest of two weeks
or more at some time during the year,
but there is equal need for breaks in
continuous labor on other occasions.
Holidays have come down to US from
the most ancient times; popular wis
dom established them in Greece and
Rome and indeed in every country that
has recorded history"

Women War Workers
To Be Rewarded

Washington, D. C. (ILNS) Fifty
women war workers, the majority of
them members Of AFL and CIO af-
filiates, have been invited to become
WACs for day and half at Aber-
deem Proving Ground, Maryland, as a
reward for faithful attendance and
high production records at SO small
war plants in Pennsylvania, Delaware,
Maryland and Virginia.
The women, selected on their rec
ords by Co-workers, all have rela-
tives in the Armed Forces, husbands,
brothers, fathers, fiancees or cousins.
The number of relatives in uniform
counted in the eligibility scores.
All Of the women are from small
war plants producing small parts for
will see how component parts fit to-
gether to make the big guns, tanks,
and armed might that blast the
enemy. Living at WAC quarters, the
war workers will witness the firing
of heavy and light artillery, will visit
a mythical theater of operations and
a BOBBY trapped model farm.
This is the first time a trip to a
military installation has been ar
ranged for women war workers,
though both Army and Navy have ar
ranged tours for groups of men on
several occasions.

Eat Crow, Mr.. Pegler

(From The Railway Clerk

our people, whose history is in so
many ways like that of the Poles, to
join with us in supplicating the all
merciful God to comfort Poland in her
sorrow and to avert the further evils
with which she is now threatened"
Granted that the Catholic hostility
to Communism dictated the sharp
wording Of the resolution, it is hard
to see how it misstates the plight Of
Poland under Russian control. But
while some of Soviet Russia's record
amply justifies the phrases, "cruel
and ruthless oppressor," the resolu-
tion would have lost no force if it had
been omitted.
The rest of the resolution states
what is happening in Poland, as far
as the rest of the world can Judge.
Certainly she is being threatened with
dismemberment, certainly the other
injustices listed in the resolution are
taking place. If they are not, Russia
has only herself to blame for having
the world think the indictment is
true. She refuses to throw Poland open,
to let newspaper men, representatives
of the Polish government and fighting
Polish Army in exile, and representa-
tives of other nations in to see what is
actually taking place. If she has moth
ing to conceal, why all the secrecy?
This column abhors the thought of
war with Russia 1t does not believe for
an instant that the United States or
any other nation has the remotest in
tention of fighting Russia. But it be-
lieves the truth should be told about
Poland, as it should be told about 9TH
er nations, including the United States.
This is not fomenting war; this is serv-
ing the cause of truth, which, in the
words of Thomas Brooks, 'is mighty
and will prevail"

COMMENT ON WORLD EVENTS

Cardinal Joseph MacRory and other
members of the Irish Catholic hier-
archy meeting in Dublin recently
adopted vigorously worded resolu-
tion on the position Of Poland, as they
see it. This column, at the risk of be-
ing charged by the newspaper PM and
others with fomenting war with Rus
sia, is going to make some remarks
on the resolution.
First for the resolution, which said:
"We, the Cardinal Primate, Arch
bishops and Bishops of Ireland assem-
bled at a general meeting at Maynooth
College, offer once more to the Polish
nation our deep sympathy in the un-
paralleled trials and sufferings that
she underwent during the war and
which the cessation of hostilities has
done nothing to mitigate. Although
she was the first to throw down the
gauntlet to aggression and although
the western nations joined in the con-
flict to preserve her freedom and in
dependence, yet the end of the war in
Europe finds her still crushed beneath
the heel of a cruel and ruthless op-
pressor.
"Her territories are threatened with
dismemberment, her people are being
denied the fundamental democratic
right of freedom to choose their own
government, political and religious
persecution is rampant. Should these
injustices be perpetuated, should the
western nations fail to stand firm to
their pledged word and to the demo
cratic principles of which they made
such ample profession during the war
then a sure and lasting peace becomes
impossible and the hopes and longings
which now fill the hearts of men are
certain to be frustrated.
1--WE solemnly protest against the
injustices to which one of the Oldest
and most gallant of the nations OF
Europe is being subjected and we ask

as we find ourselves engaged in is re-
pulsive to every concept of civilization
and American life.
However, Japan set the tempo OF
this war way back on Dec. Z, 1941
That was the way she wanted it, anc
that's the way she's getting it. She
slaughtered 5000 of our people on that
memorable morning, and we'll never
let her forget it.
Just as Hitler and his German bar.
barians determined to annihilate Brit
ain and France, so he got it back ten.
fold and perished.
international law and decency mean
nothing to Germany and Japan; they
are incapable of understanding mod
ern civilization; they have a gangster
complex
We Americans, as has been demon
strated, can treat them as humans
right up to the limit, and let them
make all the rules, and turn around
and beat their pants off.
AS for Japan, it is not up to US to
modify Japan's rules in order that she
can save her face. 1t is not up to us
to tell her when to quit. If she wants
to have anything left when we get
through with her, all she need do is
to say so.
Like the American workingman-
who up to now is not regimented-
she can stop this war at any minute.

Temporary Houses On Move

Seattle, Wash. (ILNS).-Vancouv-

lumber, will be accomplished in shift
ing the housing, although the cost is
about the same as that of new con-
struction. The buildings involved in
the move are directly managed FPHA

Union Workers To Buy
Two Billions In Bonds

Washington, D .C.-Members of or
ganized labor will purchase more than
half of the nations four billion-dollar
E-Bond quota during the 7th War
Loan Drive, Treasury officials esti-
mated.
It was pointed out that workers are
regularly buying half-billion dol
lars worth of war bonds month
through payroll allotment plans, which
would make full billion before the
drive ends on June 80.
However, the trade unions are en-
couraging their members to double and
triple their bond purchases during the
drive so that total subscriptions Of at
least two billion dollars in War Bonds
by workers are expected.
