Communism In Germany

General Eisenhower's second monthly report
to the War Department reveals new evidence
of Russas intention to run things its own
way wherever it's influence extends. German
communists with support of the Russians
dominate politics in Berlin, but without the
support of the German people at large. News
papers in Berlin under Russian sIrveil-
lance and censorship because their offices
were moved within the Russian occupation
zone a few days before the Americans moved
in The Communist paper has twice as much
newsprint as all three other papers combined
The Berlin radio is under Russian rule and
has never been used by other than Russian
broadcasters since the occupation started.

eral Eisenhower adds, are Extremely cor.

many, but it is no stretch of the imagination
to assume this is due to the easy course OF
the Russians and the cooperation Of German
communists.
The people Of Germany are too busy tying
to get their feet on the ground to pay much
attention to political trends. Obviously if there
is no change the secret purpose Of the Rus.
sians to wit, to create communist govern
ment in the nation, when rule is restored to
the Germans, will be successful by means Of
their quiet but apparently efficient activities.
Fraternization with the population, banned by
British and American leaders, has been en-
couraged by Russia, and seems to be turning
German eyes to Moscow.
If the general population Of Germany is not
going along with the communists there is no
reason to think converts are not being made
The communists are jealous proselyters.

Troops Replacing Wacs

When women were first enlisted in the Army
the purpose was to train them to do much
of the work of non-combat troops so that the
men might 60 to the front. 1t was not intended
to send them out of the country-not at first.
But the conflict grew so hot and the Wacs
proved so efficient it was not long before they
were scattered pretty well throughout war
zones.
Now the role is being reversed. Troops are
being trained to replace Wacs entitled to re-
turn from overseas service. In the Pacific
area 700 Wacs are to come home as soon as
transportation can be provided from the Phil
ippines. Several hundred others are already
back
The first Wacs landed in Australia in April.
1914, and since have moved northward behind
the ground forces until several are now in
Tokyo. Robert Trumbull, writing in the New
York Times, notes:
''The Wacs became such a vital part OF
Army administration that many sections were
unable to function without them. Therefore the
Wacs in the Southwest Pacific have been on
constant move as General Douglas Mac.
Arthurs troops pushed 'up the line through
New Guinea, Biak, Morotai and the Philip
pines, and now Japan
s'Many Army sections in which Wacs filled
important Jobs are now closed. The censorship
section is an example. There are now no
Wacs in Australia or New Guinea. but few
remain in Biak and Leyte. The bulk Of the
Womens Army Corps in this theatre is now
concentrated in Manila.
The Wacs have lived and worked on the
Pacific islands under the same rough condi.
tons as their male fellow soldiers-except for
combat-and the compilations Of the high-point
girls show the same effects of the tropical
sun and the constant taking Of atabrine pills
to prevent malaria.
There are sun wrinkles around their eyes
and their legs are as yellow as sulphur from
the atabrine
They are used to living in tents without
floors and to bathing out of helmets Some
times their tents leak in the tropical rains
one lieutenant woke up here in Manila one
to find that she had not stitch OF
dry clothes-but they still manage to look
pretty and reasonably fresh in the worlds
toughest climate for women"
It is expected the last Of them will not be
homewardbound until some time in April. May
be it will not be so hard on the men who
replace them, especially as time hangs heavy
for occupation forces and those assigned to
Wac jobs at least will have something to do
for definite number of hours daily, if only
calls at a telephone switchboard.

Editorial Comment
NITRATES

The Germans have ample facilities for pro-
ducing synthetic nitrates at very little cost,
and they should be required to supply the
United States with reasonable quantity OF
these nitrates in lieu of cash indemnify pay
ments. During the war American farmers
produced under difficulties great quantities
OF food and feedstuffs which went to other
nations to support the war effort. and here is
an opportunity to reward them to some ex.
tent by providing them with cheaper nitrates.

ated by the American Federation OF
Labor in these parts. The writer
thinks this is worthy cause which
should be enthusiastically supported.
If we hope to protect our present
wage rates and living standards at
the conclusion of the war, we can best
do so at the present time by organiz-
ing the unorganized and protecting
them and ourselves from wage reduc-
tons which all the unorganized will
be exposed to at the end of hostilities.
Vice President Hull explained IN
detail how the economical processes
operated at the conclusion of World
War /, when vicious program OF
wage reductions was inaugurated by
the enemies Of labor i'm a gigantic
campaign known as Back to Nor
malcy." We are very much IN dis
agreement with any program mott
waited by a backward thought and we
are determined to retain the ad-
vances made during the past few
years, and desire the presence of
each member at our next regular
meeting when we will vote upon the
question of donating $500 to the
A. r. of l.. organizing campaign in

Plans for the reopenng of our

next meeting. We think we have a
good case and can convince the War

familiar with the procedure necessary
in such instances and are qualified to
prosecute our case and protect our

Teamwork Drund Huiled
AT California Premiere

Los Angeles, Calif.-American Fed
Grafton of Labor officers of interna-
tional, state, and local unions were
members of the committee of 100
Californians representing the leader
ship of the state in labor, manage
ment and government who saw the
California premiere of the MIRA in
dustrial drama "The Forgotten Fac
tor" presented in the Biltmore Thea
ter, Los Angeles, Wednesday night.
Fresh from highly successful show
ings in many industrial centers in the
East, including a National Theater
performance in Washington, d. c.,
sponsored by President William Green
of the AFL, George M. Harrison,
grand president, Brotherhood of Rail-
way Clerks; the Hon. Harry S. Tru-
man; Admiral Leahy, General John
j. Pershing and other national lead
ers, "The Forgotten Factor" has
been acclaimed as gripping presen-
tation Of an answering force in the
industrial conflicts of today.
Two thousand union and manage
ment officials in aircraft, shipbuild-
ing, steel, oil and rubber, AFL, CIO,
and Railway Brotherhoods, and heads
in education, banking and the movie
industry were deeply stirred as they
watched the struggle in American in
dustry unfold before their eyes.
Answer to Division
"This isn't a play, it's real!' was
the exclamation of one union man.
81 have this battle every day in my
union between those who are out for
the good of the union and those who
are out only for themselves. The
Forgotten Factor shows men how to
be loyal to their union and to each
other"
After seeing how the labor-hating
executive in the play got his ideas on
the union leader in his plant COM
pletely changed, Los Angeles busi-
ness man remarked, 'There's hardly
man among us seeing this play who
could fail to recognize himself once" "
Whereupon the president Of ship
yard replied, "Once!-Why, saw
myself fifty times tonight" This was
The potters herald. [volume] (East Liverpool, Ohio) 1899-1982, 1945-02-22

how "The Forgotten Factor" quickly
brought new understanding of each
others problems to the labor and
management men present. The new
factor of trust and honest teamwork
which it brought into the lives of peo-
pie is described by Rear Admiral
Richard E. Byrd as "the decisive fac
tor" in the building of new world.
"'The Forgotten Factor gives new
hope and shows how postwar indus
try can be saved from the tragedy Of
class warfare and bloodshed," was
the comment of labor writer.
Headed by Governor Earl Warren
of California and Mayor Fletcher

guished Committee of Invitation in

plies to the total number in attend

local character, using no hotel facili-
ties and making use of only city or
