The 20-year-old member of an

ceived fleet appointment to the

one OF his officers. He will study two

Books DESTROYED

Leipzig in Germany was a center
of Nazi war industry as well as a
crossroads for eight different trans
portation systems of strategic i'm
portance. 1t therefore was a
legitimate target for the Allied air
forces. To have spared it would
have meant to sacrifice hundreds,
perhaps thousands of American as
well as British and Russian lives.
The logical military decision was
taken not in retaliation for enemy
blasting of London, Warsaw, Rotter-
dam and other cities. Rather, it
was reached on purely expedient
grounds. In twenty-five minutes on
December 3, 1943, fifteen hundred
tons of bombs were dropped on the
heart of the ancient town of the
lime trees"
The December issue of the Bulletin
of the American Association for the
Advancement of Science discusses
the result in terms of the destruction
of books and of facilities for publish
ing them. "In no other country" it
is explained, "has there been such
concentration of the production
and selling of the works of scholars
as in Leipzig" The area known as
Book City contained about five
hundred and fifty publishers, three
hundred and twenty booksellers and
more than one hundred and fifty
concerns doing both publishing and
selling. From Swiss reports, it
appears that about 80 per cent" OF
that portion of the town was de-
stroyed, including not only books
and manuscripts but also types,
prints, stereotype plates, printing
presses and printing stocks of all
kinds" The University Library,
founded in 1543 and containing in
excess of a million volumes and the
Deutsch Bucherei, a depositary of
all German language books published
since 1918, we're within the danger
zone and may have been wrecked.

papers. Many more of these orders may
be expected.
The maintenance of membership plan
is a compromise between labor organiz-
ers and union leaders seeking the closed
shop and employers and employees who
do not wish a closed shop. One rea-
son advanced in support of the policy of
forcing the maintenance of member
ship plan upon employers and employees
who are hostile to it is that organized
labor, having voluntarily given up the
strike as a weapon for the duration Of
the war, is entitled to this form of union
protection.
The plan is not entirely new. 1t goes
back q score Of years Further, the
maintenance Of membership plan has
been written into contracts between
employers and unions under voluntary
negotiation-that is, without the issue
of an order by the WLB. Such con-
tracts, it is estimated, cover about D.
100000 employees.
Briefly, the maintenance of member
ship plan provides that members OF a
union must keep themselves in good
standing-by the payment of dues. In
many instances 1t compels the employ
ers to collect the dues. 1t does not OF
itself demand that every employe be-
come q member of the union-but 1t
is an aid in that direction.
The orders have an escape" clause
under which members of union have
is days in which to withdraw from the
union before the plan goes into effect.
Also at the conclusion Of contract
with the employer, II members Of the
union are not satisfied, they again have
Is days In which to withdraw from the
union, before the new contract goes
into effect
A recent survey made by the Depart
ment of Labor showed that of $4,000
employees in 81 plants having the main
tenance of membership plan, only 395
took advantage of the escape clause, at
the conclusion of their contracts and
before the beginning of new ones. This
indicates a withdrawal of only one-half
of per cent of the employees.
Obviously the maintenance Of men,
bership plan-now covering probably
4,000,00 workers-is gaining ground
fast
