Green Appeals For
Memorial Day Service

Washington, D. C.-AFL President
William Green appealed to all workers
to observe Memorial Day by continu-
ing steadfastly on the job.
He suggested that memorial serv-
ices be held in the shops and factories
for the members Of the armed forces
who have given their lives in defense
of democracy and for the members OF
the army Of production who were
killed in industrial accidents during
the war production drive.
"I officially call upon all our mem
bers to participate in exercises on an
interfaith and interracial basis" Mr.
Green said. Through such action we
will demonstrate to all classes Of peo.
pie that the spirit Of our fallen heroes
still lives"

FRIDAY, MAY IL, 1916
LABOR STAND JUSTIFIED

The American Federation of Labor
executive council did a bang-up job
in showing that events have fully
justified the wisdom of the fedora
tion's opposition to a draft of labor
In a concise statement, much to the
point, the council emphasizes the fact
that defeat of the draft legislation has
not injured the war production pro-
gram and that, on the contrary, pro-
since rejection of the measure in Con-
gress.
"Nor has the absence of compul-
sorry labor controls resulted in more
manpower shortages, as many official
authorities predicted" the council
says.
Today" the council declares as a
clincher, "we hear no more talk of
the need of forced labor"
Administration spokesmen, "brass
hats" Communists, misnamed Glib
erals" and others who so vociferous-
ly chorused demands for compulsory
manpower legislation have been pret-
ty quiet since it's congressional de-
mise. When the bill was defeated,
they gloomily foresaw all sorts of dire
things happening, but they soon con-
cluded the issue was no longer moot
and since then they have been sing
ing mighty low on the subject. For
which the nation has cause to be
thankful.

CONSTRUCTIVE NAVY JOB

Did your Navy son have his educa-
tion interrupted when he was called
off to war? If SO, the Navy is doing
what it can to help him catch up with
his schooling. With more and more
emphasis being placed on the need
for educated workers in the postwar
period, this Navy education job is all
to the good
Night schools and correspondence
courses, started two years ago by the
Navy, are proving popular with Navy
men. On Midway one-third of the
men are attending night school. The
Pearl Harbor night schools has had
as many as 5000 students.
An estimated s to 10 thousand men
have received diplomas since joining
the Navy due to off-duty classes and
courses taken through
the United States Armed Forces In
stitute at Madison, Wis. Still others
have made a good start on college
work

Increasing Cutbacks
Bring Unemployment

Washington, D. C.-Reports of an
increasing number of cutbacks and
layoffs in many parts of the nation
provided a preview of widespread job
lessness facing workers after the war
unless drastic steps are taken by the
government to head off such develop
ments.
News dispatches from Portland,
Greg, disclosed that 10000 persons
are walking the streets looking for
jobs and that by the years end the
$4,000 now employed in shipyards
there would shrink to 25,000.
In San Francisco layoffs have be-
come so numerous that the "Amer-
lean Labor Citizen" organ of the Bay
Cities Metal Trades Council, declared
"the manpower shortage bugaboo in
the bay area has turned into an un-
employment specter."

The present increase in the flow of

putes which might have developed into
wars.
Special emphasis is placed on the
constructive work of the international

The AFL recalls that the lilo adopted
many conventions or agreements set

on such matters as hours of work,
child labor, workmen's compensation,
night work, industrial poisoning, etc.
"There have been 887 notifications
of lilo conventions by member ma
tions," the federation says. Adoption
of these standards has led to great
improvements in working and living
conditions throughout the world"

is a forward step but until Virginia
abolishes the poll tax as require

AFL Union Triumphs
In Buffalo Election

Buffalo-A resounding victory was
scored by the AFL Amalgamated As
sociation of Street, Electric Railway
and Motor Coach Employees in an
NLRB election to determine the collec-
tive bargaining agent for transit en-
ployes in Buffalo, Niagara Falls and
Lockport.
The vote was 942 for the AFL union
to 7O8 for the CIO Transport Workers
Union.
The victory climaxed hotly con-
tested organization and election cam
paign in which CIO agents were ac-
cused of reprehensible tactics.

problems that can hardly be exagge-
rated. Civilian and public service re-
quirements, superimposed on Allied
military needs, have already created
conditions with which the occupation
authorities are apparently unable to
cope. What will happen in the course
of the next few months is anybody's
guess.
1t is under these circumstances sur
prising, to say the least, to find the
army authorities in American-con-
quered Germany and particularly their
civilian branch-the Allied Military
Governments i'll prepared for the
chaos and emergencies that follow in
the footsteps Of military conquest.
Poorly stated and thinly spread over
thousands Of densely populated square
miles, it seems miracle that hand
full of men can keep order in the face
of an apathetic and often hostile peo-
pie.
The only explanation this column
can offer is that German docility, for
once, is working in favor of the AL
lies. Violent outbreaks have been
avoided so far. A report in the New
York Times tells of one army major,
one lieutenant and one warrant Of
ficer in charge of territory of 200
square miles with SO towns and viii
lagos, and displaced persons centers.
There are about $4,000 liberated for
eign workers and prisoners of war in
each center.
The unreadiness on the part OF the
AMG to handle administrative occu-
patton problems that could be fore
seen many months ago BODIES i'll for
the future. 1t seems rather late now
to scurry around for trained person
mel. Nor will hastily established AMG
training centers with intensive two
weeks courses for haphazardly chosen
soldier boys furnish the answer. At
ter that, they are on their own and
supposed to deal with people with
whose ways of thinking and living,
not to mention language, most of them
are unfamiliar.
Why has this situation been permit
ted to arise? This writer, in common
with others, has been pleading in vain
for the establishment of an efficiently
manned occupation authority, compe-
tent to deal with just such situations
as have arisen and are bound to arise
in parts still under the heel Of German
force; that staffs of American men
and women, acquainted with condi-
tions in Europe and speaking foreign
languages, be put in charge OF occu-
pied territory under the supervision
of the military; that they, by applying
their knowledge and experience, weed
out undesirables and replace Nazi-ap-
pointed officials with persons OF prov
en- loyalty to the democratic cause.
1t is pertinent to ask, what has the
United States with it's millions of cit
liens of German descent to offer for
the administration of Germany and
the political reeducation of the Ger
man people? Nothing so far, | fear.
We talk a great deal and get hotly
indignant, but are somewhat reluctant
to put the abundant human material
in our midst to good use. 1t is to be
hoped that the Truman Administra-
tion will give attention to an issue
which is an important factor in the
realization of the long range peace
plans of the United Nations Confer
ence at San Francisco.

Sure proof of labor's productivity
on the home front is the record of ton
mage unloaded during March at Cal
cutta, India, one of the largest foreign
ports for American shipping in the
world. In that month, at the same
time that supplies were flowing to the
European front for the furious fight
ing there, Calcutta received the big
gest tonnage of American supplies
sent since the arrival of American
troops in the India Burma theater, the
total long ton cargo unloaded having
been 80 percent more than for the
previous peak month of December.
Pressed by the urgency of the supply
situation, veteran American port units
in Calcutta have attained peak eff
cheney in unloading ships and distrib-
uting cargoes. Supplies arriving there
by ship are often rolling down the
Burma Road to Ledo within "a hours
after the vessel has docked.
During this record month of March,
port units established new high for
the unloading of Liberty ship, dis
charging the cargo of one vessel in "A
hours. The normal turnaround time
for American cargo ships in Calcutta
is now to 3 " days and is the best for
United States ship in any foreign
port.
Long before the ships arrive, details
of the cargoes aboard are received by
air mail. Plans for the unloading pro-
cedure are drawn up. BY the time the
vessels reach the docks, the required
number of trucks, barges and tugs is
on hand and waiting to haul away the
freight.
Men board the ships even before
they tie up and by the time the YES
sells are secured to the dockside all
deck cargoes have been loosened and
