in nearby countries. Even in the
Balkans and destroyed Berlin, liv-
ing standards which we think de-
plorable are so far superior to
those of USSR that Russian sol
diers are deserting by the thou
sand, refusing to return to the
poverty and degradation of their
homeland. The Soviet has already
succeeded in bringing the people
of Hungary to poverty, and in its
puppet states of Rumania, Bull
garia, Lithuania, Estonia and Lat
via, living standards are far lower
today than when the Russian con-
troll first began.
In contrast to this Russian
policy, the American people want
to see the highest possible level of
living for the people of Europe.
This should be basic in our for
eign policy. The mistake has been
that, up to Secretary Byrnes'
Stuttgart speech, we have failed
to play this trump card, and failed
to make this policy clear to Eu-
rope. The United States has in the
past been maneuvred into the posi- /.
tion of being the instrument for
the Soviet policy of reducing Eu-
pore to poverty.

Rent Ceilings Placed
On IL Urban Areas

Washington (FP) = OPA an
nounced that II rental areas in
cluding two state capitals and four
college towns would Immediately
be brought under rent control for
the first time.
Housing shortages in these
areas have caused rents to go up
and many requests for rent con-
troll had been received from local
organizations, OPA said. Returned
war industry workers to their pre-
war homes, return of veterans and
veteran influx into colleges were
given as causes for the acute
shortages in these places.
Rent ceilings in the following
areas will be based on Jan. /, 1916
rents: Mt. Vernon, H.; Muscatine,
Iowa; New Iberia, La; Franklin
County, Mo-; Butte, Mont;
Gloversville and Olean, n. Y;
Portsmouth, O.; Huntsville, Tex;
Montpelier, VT. and Sheboygan,

Rents will be based on July l,
1915 in: Auburn, Ind; Charles
City, Ia.; Delaware County, o.;
Wooster, o.; and Indiana County,
Penna.

Comment On World Events

Freedom for millions of peo-
pie, security for the United States
and lasting peace for the world are
at stake in the policies now being
developed for Europe. The United
States is very gravely concerned
with the kind of political adjust
ments that are to be made there.
We have seen the Nazis force two
thirds Of the continent under their
new economy and impose Pan Ger
man domination over the conquer
ed people.
The history Of our owu continent
convinces US that peace and pros
perity come from cooperation and
federation, with control in the
hands Of the citizens. Our govern
ment has therefore consistently
proposed that the construction
features of the Yalta agreement be
carried out to provide governments
freely chosen by the people in Po-
land and the Balkans, to establish
freedom OF trade through the
great European arteries Of COM
merce and to assure Independent
governments in Germany and Aus
tira.
Aggression under another dicta-
torship whatever it's name is not
the way to assure human welfare
in Europe. There have been sue
cessions of empires beginning with
Rome, and always the end was the
same. Our hope now lies in estab-
fishing freedom for all. Meanwhile
Soviet Russia, land that never
had freedom, is attempting to
force the Communist slave system
upon the whole of eastern Europe,
to close its gatways of trade and
cut off its intercourse with the
outside world, so that the govern
ments and economic life of the
people there may be completely
dominated by Moscow. The USSR
is also seeking to control Germany
and Austria.
The facts behind these devel-
opments are vital to American
workers if they are to understand
Sovite Russia's drive for expansion
and to see the meaning Of Soviet
proposals in the Paris Peace Con-
ference and in the United Nations.
Behind the Soviet foreign policy
lies basic Russian objective: To
reduce the living standards of Eu-
rope to the medieval levels now
prevailing in USSR. This is neces-
sary to make the Stain regime Sc
cure. Twenty-Five years Of COM
munism has reduced the Russians
to poverty. Stain has to prevent |
his own people from seeing the i'm
measuraby higher living standards

Trdinmen Plan Publicity
To Combat "Propdgdndd"

Miami Beach, Fla. (FP)-Vic-
Ens of a torrent of propaganda
mich helped break their nation
wide strike last May, delegates to
the Brotherhood Of Railroad Train
men (unaffiliated) convention here
adopted a streamlined 11-point
public relations program to spread
the truth about their union.
"The vicious and unfair treat
ment labor is receiving from the
daily press and from the radio is
proof enough that broad action to
promote understanding of our
problems and good public relations
must be taken promptly" the
adopted report said.
"Throughout these times our
sacrifices have been many not
enough pay for tough work, sud-
den death and injury, harsh and
unjust working rules which should
have been changed many years
ago. We know this, but how many
others do! -.
"Labor's destiny is at the cross
roads. If we sit supinely by and let
the newspapers, radio, demagogues
and labor -baiters fill the public
ear without raising our voice in
reply, we are leaving the door wide
open for the destruction of our
free trade unions.
"The National Association of
Manufacturers and the American
Association of Railroads and all
the other enemies of labor are get
ting THEIR story across. The pity
it is that some of our enemies
ven fall for their insidious prop
uganda"
The program, designed to keep
both the membership and the
public informed, calls for:
A weekly tabloid newspaper
which will carry no advertise
ments.
An information service to be set
up at grand lodge headquarters in
Cleveland which will get out:
press releases for newspapers and
magazines, clipsheets for news
paper and magazine editors,
phamplets, reports, fact sheets for
radio commentators and column
lists, mimeographed releases to
each subordinate lodge issued fire.

"You look at this subject like a

percentage. One per cent is practi-
cally proverty, don't you see?"
Fifty thousand isn't poverty"
Little Luther insisted. "And be-
sides, you put only 500 thousand
dollars into the company. That's so
per cent profit in one year not
l per cent"
"Stop it, Lutherl Stop it," Mr..
Dilworth screamed. "You sound
like those reds in my plant"
"And besides your profits" Lit
tie Luther continued, 'you drew
down 10000 dollars salary. Who'd
pay you that much if you didn't
run the company yourself ?"
"I'll wash your mouth OUT" Mr..
Dilworth yelled.
"And besides the l cent paid
stockholders out of every l dollar
sales, 5 cents was plowed back
into the company. That made your
stock worth how many more thou
sand of dollars ?"
Luther, I've made decision.
I'll give you that so cent raise"
"The heck you WILL" said Little
Luther. "After looking over your
situation, I've talked myself into
holding out for a dollar raise"

Finds Curtain
Of Fear CIoukS
Cotton Kingdom
BY MARION WALTERS

columbus, Ga. (FP) = In the
shadow of Pine Mountain and only
few short miles from Warn
Springs, Ca, where the late Presi
dent Roosevelt conceived anc
brought to the downtrodden of the
Torld his famous four freedoms
there lives today a people whose
lives are obsessed by fear.
They are the some 14,000 work
ers in Columbus huge cotton mills
a little empire of its own ruled by
a group whose dictatorial powers
become cunning and far-reaching
when their realm is threatened.
Many efforts have been made to
organize and bring freedom to
these $4,000 workers. But to date
these attempts have served only
to tighten the fear that grips their
very lives. Now they are afraid of
their jobs, afraid of their bosses,
afraid even to be seen talking with
union organizers.
Their fear is that their names
will appear on the dread blacklist,
a secret roll that contains the
names of those textile workers
who dared to break away and ex-
ercise their right to join labor
organization. Once a textile work
er's name is written there he
might just as we'll build himself a
cart and start peddling apples. His
mill days are over.
In Columbus the drive to organ
ize southern workers is meeting
it's toughest opposition. Here are
located scme of the nations larg-
est cotton mills. And here can be
found some of the richest mill
owners, who naturally will brook
800 interference with their setup.
w. C. Bradley, for instance
owns the huge Eagle-Phenix Mills,
the Columbus Manufacturing Co.
and the Gate City Cotton Mills. In
cidently he also owns the Colum-
DuS Ddflk U IIuSI w., 10 ulIcC-
tor in the huge Citizens & South
ern Bank chain, own the Columbus
Iron Works, is a director of Coca
Cola, of the Central of Georgia
railroad, the Southern Mutual In
surance Co., owns a wholesale
grocery, a fertilizer plant and cot
ton warehouse, to mention only a
few of his holdings in this town of
less than $4,000 population.
w. C. Anderson owns the Bibb
Manufacturing Co. plant, one of
the worlds largest, and the Ander-
on mills in Columbus, to say no.
thing of other huge mills in Macon
and other Georgia towns. There
are some of the men who are
fighting the legalized right of
every worker to join union of his
choice.

NAM Fears War
May Kill Profits

New York (FP) - Profit-con-
scious members of the National
Association of Manufacturers are
worried about the possibilities of
war with Russia. 1t may cost
them too much.
According to a recent NAM
bulletin, eff war with Russia
should come, the consensus among
Washington officials is that ma
tional service-which industry sue
cessfully opposed during the last
war-will have to be imposed i'm
mediately.
"This in turn would necessitate
the conscription of all the produc-
tive and transportation resources
of the nation, and the elimination
of the profit system-at least for
the time being 1t would be politi-
cally impossible, these government
leaders agree, to force labor to
work in plants that are operated
on a profit basis.
Sew military leaders believe
Russia could be defeated by atomic
bombs alone. They believe invas-
ion and occupation would be neces-
sary, at a terrific expenditure of
lives and material. One top Off
cial estimated that the cost of. a
war with Russia would increase
the national debt by 500 to 1000
billion dollars"
War is OK, but watch that pro-
fit system, seems to be the NAM
slogan.

Preacher Leads
AIIis-ChuImerS
Picket Line

Norwood, o. (FP) = Meet the
Rev. Ray Sturch of the Methodist
Pilgrim church, a minister and a
fighting union member, who mar
ries union brothers and sisters
in the plant, breaches their fun
erals and every day "leads his peo-
pie to battle" on the Allis-Chal-
mers picketline.
Sturch is a rowing preacher and
home missionary to parishes which
don't have enough money to sup
port a minister, so he works in
the Allis- Chalmers plant for his
bread and butter. He's been a
member of Local 765, United Elec-
trical Radio & Machine Workers
for two year, is chief steward and
a member of the negotiating COM
mittee and was delegate to the
recent UE convention in Milwau-
kee.
interviewed on the picketline,
Stauch, a thin, sandy haired man
with bright eyes, said he was in
terested in labor because at is
the greatest movement in the
world working from a humanitar-
ian standpoint. Certainly the soul
and body are SO closely combined
that you can't properly care for
one without the other. This union
is seeing to it that masses of hui
manity have the right to live with
out being servants of the few who
are more fortunate"
Sturch doesn't believe in vio-
lence but last winter he came to
the conclusion that a strike could
not be avoided at Allis-Chalmers.
For 2la years the union tried to
get a contract without striking, he
said, but the company was just
determined to beat them down.
"Any man has right to fight for
self preservation" the union
preacher said. "With us at Allis-
Chalmers it's either fight or die"
Sturch is interested in politics
as in everything else that con-
Germs the welfare of his people. He
used to be a registered Republican.
Right now he feels that the ma
tion is in great need of a third
party to serve the true interests of
the people, but until that time he
figures the Democratic party is
better for America than the COP.
Like most ministers, Sturch is op-
posed to war and for that reason
he's very concerned right now
about U. S. foreign policy. "The
reason why we're not getting
along with the Russians any better
is we're not trying" he suspects.
The recent UE convention was
his first union convention and he
every minute of the ses-
sions, voting on every issue. He
thought the conventions was "a
lesson in true democracy" but he
chad no use for the backbiters try
ing to undermine the officers
who've led the people so far and
so splendidly."
