W. Brown of the Machinists as- serted. "Who, after all, achieved the record breaking output that he cites, except the workers in the mines, mills, factories, on the rail- roads, and other fields of endeavor?
 "If. as contended, some lines of civilian goods are tagging behind, the cause arises from other factors, such as shortages of materials, not any failure of the workers to do their part"
 AS for SmalIs declaration that a longer work-week may be neces- sary, Brown stressed that labor doesn't object to working overtime if the supply of needed workers be- comes exhausted"
 'In such a situation, organized labor will meet its responsibility to society,"" he said. "We oppose overtime only when workers are idle, looking for jobs"
 Small's report, incidentally, cited many significant figures. It dis closed that such items as radios, electric ranges, electric irons and electric vacuum cleaners are now being produced at rate of 40 to 65 per cent above pre-war levels. Most other "durableS," except auto- mobiles, are being turned out faster than the pre-War rate.
 Output appears to be low in some fields, he said, only because the demand now is still greater than the supply.
 Small disclosed that particularly spectacular production increases in August occurred in building sup plies. In that one month, output of plumbing fixtures and "other criti- cal building materials" 1eaped 20 to 35 per cent over July.
 "This record of achievement has probably never been sur passed in the history of building materials production over com parable period of time," Small said.
 "The record is a tribute to the cooperation of workers and building material producers with the gov ernment's program for rapid ex- pansion of building supplies"

Letters to inc Editor
(Cont1nued from Page Fourl

(Contmued from Page Fonr) punished, by mortal men, for the breaking of a natural law, it is assumed that everyone else is liv- ing according to these higher laws! Archbishop Stepinac, in a Yugo- slavian court only few hundred miles away from Nuremberg, was outrageously convicted for sup posed collaboration with the NaziS. His record proved him to be man of outstanding character. There is little doubt that this Yugoslav- ian court had Russian pressure ap- piled to it, being a puppet govern ment, when convicting Stepinac without a fair trial.
 Thus it seems that the U. N. may have overreached, insofar as the majority of mankind have not as yet reached the level of the ideal set forth in the precedent. while Russia is resorting to barbarian. Between these two extremes lies an elusive peace.

Over g Billion Rode U. $. Transit Lines in '45

New York City-More than g and a quarter billion people rode on the nations transit lines during 1945, according to the annual sum- mary made by the American Tran sit Association. This represented a record, exceeding even the peak wartime record achieved In 1914.
 The association, which had anti cipated a gradual slackening in passenger volume following the war, attributes the new record to the rapid shift which most indus tries were able to make from war to peacetime production, as we'll as to reduced passenger automobile registration.

Furthermore, labor productivity is now generally higher than be- fore the war" he asserted.
 Many industries are 'scraping the ceiling" of manpower and mate riaIS, he added. Some of them may have to expand the work-week be- yond 40 hours to attain further pro- duction, Small told newsmen.
 His report was particularly cheering to organized labor be- cause it provided refutatiOn of recent propaganda campaign to the effect that productivity of workers has gone down.
