see the two groups welded together
who view such unity as threat tt
their own aspirations, who from {
selfish point of view prefer the divi
sion in two camps.
But in continuing to permit such 6
division the only economic group
which profits therefrom is the very
same group which has made the or
ganization of unions a necessity-the
Big Biz-Big Industry hierarchy and
their satellites. By being divided, the
entire labor movement is weakened
many fold; is in constant and expen-
sive internal conflict when all it's en-
ergies should be directed toward OBJ
J tanning an increasingly higher stan
dard of living for American workers.
Let us hope that the "Teamsters"
plea is the opening kickoff on the
international level for removal of fun

major executive councils and their
subordinate unions, that American la
Dor may once again present a united

"The Germans concentrated on
small ships after Hitler came to
power, but their fleet never was q

main object was to prevent enemy
aid from arriving overseas. Had
Germany had an adequate fleet, we
might not have been able to get
men and supplies across the Atlantic
as we did.
1T is safe to assume that If Ger

The least We can do Is make capital
of our advantage by maintaining q
