GERMAN TROOPS, GEsTAPO
STILL SLAY HELPLESS

Tha. protests through the department
of state and United States military
sources to the cold-blooded Staying of
captured Allied troops and helpless citi-
zens of the still occupied areas by Nazi
soldiers and the hated Gestapo is so much
time wasted is proved in additional un-
believable atrocities.
Only in the last few days has it been
announced with complete proof that
wholesale slaughter of helpless men and
women still is going on. In a single Bel
gian town where the Germans made their
Inflated re-invasion and where now they
are in full retreat back to the Siegfried
line, nearly the entire population was
murdered on the pretext that it was in
payment for retreating German officer
being shot at from ambush.
While not nearly so horrible as the
wanton and hellish act in wiping the vii
lage of Lidice off the map, this recent
slaughter shows clearly that there is only
one way to treat the Nazis and that is to
consider them as worse than barbarians
and act accordingly.
No matter to what extent punishment
may be meted out in the end for all the
guilty who can be found, nothing ever can
make full accounting for the butchering
of band of captured American soldiers
shortly after the re- invasion of Belgium
started.
The punishment must be visited upon

THOMAS PREDICTS
COALITION PARTY
(Christian Science Monitor)

Norman Thomas's recent comment that
the Socialist Party is through as politi-
cal factor in the United States, but will
continue as an educational factor calls
attention to the practical disappearance
of the minor parties in the 1914 Presl-
Dental election. None of them received
more than comparative handful of
votes Perhaps the most crushing blow
to the Thomas adherents was to have the
Socialist-Labor candidate poll heavier
vote in New York State.
Mr.. Thomas, however, nothing daunt-
ed, predicts that third party will be or
ganized as coalition of labor groups,
small farmers, Socialists, ProgreSslves IN
Wisconsin, and the remnants OF the
Farmer-Labor Party in Minnesota and
the Dakotas. American history is against
Mr. Thomas. A dozen minor parties
have arisen since the Civil War, but none
mas lasted
Socialists and many political laborites
followed the elder La Toilette in 1924,
and the Progressive Party carried one
\ state-Wisconsin The movement was
not revived.
The Progressive Party of 1912, with
Theodore Roosevelt at its head, also was
only a one-campaign effort. In reality,
it was no. a third party but merely one
section Of the divided Republican Party.
The split paralleled the action of the
Democrats in 1860. In each instance
minority party won-and incidenta ly
elected a grea. war resident-Lincoln
in the frs instance and Wilson in the
second.
It is true that the Republican Party
itself originally was made up of minor
ps-abolutionists, Know Nothings,
Free Sellers, German immigrants, and
Wings Mr. Thomas prophesies the coall-
tion cf divergent interests in his future
third party, but it might be pointed out
that groups as far apart as the poles IN
their political thinking today actually
make up the major political parties. The
conservative, ruralite Southerners lined
up with radicals. Northern Negroes, and
big city bosses behind President Roose-
velt -e
Possibly so long as labor interests be-
lieve they can gain their ends by sup
porting one of the major par.ies-as the
c. l. O.'s Political Action Committee did
with the Democrats-no third party OF
workers is likely to arise in the United
States Indeed, practically all the larger
bocs and groups feel the same way.

JOURNEY IN

From under cloudy skies one au-
tumn day
We came upon a lane of sunlight
clear
AS sudden silver flung across our
way,
And laughed to see the shadows dis
appear.
The day grew deeper still, became
well
Whose hidden depth the heart could
scarcely plumb,
The Ginning voice of evening was
a bell
Whose song we could not echo, be-
ing dumb.
Rain did not fall. We paused with
listening ears
For oVertOncS OF storm or distant
thunder,
Night offered us, instead of au-
tumn's tears.
A shower Of stars to dazzle us with
wonder.

Veterans coming to the City Hall can receive assistance and aid in obtaining employment, education, insurance loans, muStering-out-pay, apprentice training, vocational training, disqualification, pensions, service pins, service-connected dis abilities, death gratuities, back pay, housing, and counseling in family affairs.
 Any veterans from New London, Groton, Lyme, Old Lyme, East Lyme, Waterford, or Salem can ap- ply at the Center for help. MT. Morgan said that so far he has granted 733 interviews and that real assistance was given in each case. MT. Morgan stated that in many cases veterans are ignorant of the benefits due them and there fore it is very much worth their while to pay visit to the center before taking up civilian life again. He said, we must make 1t possible for our returning veterans to re- ceive the proper guidance which will help so much to readjust them raoidly as self-reliant citizens"
 Organized labor is taking an ac- tive part in seeing that veterans whose sacrifices have been so great are rewarded for the great service they have rendered the country. Locally, the American Federation of Labor will do all in its power to see that veterans get the help thev deserve.

Church Paper Calls For Increase in Pay

Another leading church publica- ton, the Pittsburgh Catholic" has come out in support of organized labor's drive to preserve take-home earnings as hours are reduced from 48 to 40 a week.
 An editorial in the paper pointed out that the cut in hours has brought 30 per cent slash in the earnings of many workers, and that this must be made up by higher hourly rates to avert an economic breakdown.
 Every day that wartime prices are exacted while take-home wages are reduced means that purchasing power is being drained away, the economic cycle is not being kept in balance and the inevitable collapse is being brought nearer" the paper said.
 "Only stupidity, or selfishness, or both, will postpone the restoration of take home wages to the level that will assure a just and there fore prosperous industrial system" :"
