Hope for passage Of legislation
during the next session Of Congress
making the WAC and WAVES per-
manent parts Of the Army and Navy
was expressed yesterday by 1t. Col
Mary Louise Milligan, Deputy Di-
rector Of the WAC.
Col. Milligan addressed meeting
Of the District Daughters Of the
American Revolution National De-
fense Committee, In the absence Of
Col. Mary A. Hallaren, Director OF
the WAC, who could not attend.
The fact that the Army and Navy
have gone ahead and included the
womens services In their future
plans Is gratifying" Col. Milligan
declared. 1T will Just take passage
Of the legislation itself to give the
60 sign for setting the new program
In action" she said.
The deputy director outlined the
history Of the WAC from its begin
ming a. an emergency auxiliary to
its present position as part Of the
AUS. She particularly cited the
Army's increased recognition Of the
value Of the WAC. In 1912 she
pointed out the Army considered
only four types Of jobs open to
WACs as compared with the present
estimate Of about 400.
While awaiting the outcome Of
Congressional action. on its future
the WAC, with . nucleus Of about
5000 women Is making plans for
further expansion, experimental
utilization OF personnel to md par
ticular types of work for which
women are best adapted and other
moves which will assure women Of a
definite career In the peacetime
Army, Col. Millisan declared.
The program also included q talk
by CApt. Margaret e. McEnerney
Of the WAC Public Information

toned at the Universal Military
Training Experimental Unit at

Capt. McEnerney lauded the work

that we haven't been so weak at
sea since the days Of John Paul
Jones.
And the Air Force will outdo both
the other departments Of defense
in self beIttlement. We will learn
that, If war comes. we will be sitting
as helpless here at home as we were
in the Philippines when the Japan
ese air feet came over the day after
Pearl Harbor.
We must have two billion dollars
worth Of universal military training
annually. We must make Alaska i'm
pregnable. Etc, etc., etc.
May All Be True.
These things may all be true, al
though it Is certain that Congress
will look with a fishy eye at some
of the proposed appropriations.
There Is always q good deal
of mystery for most Of us sur
rounding the details Of armed pre-
paredness. It Is hard for us to be-
lieve we are as weak as our profess
sional defenders picture us, but we
take comfort from predictions from
the same sources that the war they
wish to prepare for cannot come
for several years. The preparation
is for the long pull ahead, not for
this year or next year.
About one essential phase Of pre-
paredness, however, we hear singu-
larly little. That is the power re-
quired for war production.
Long before we got into the last
war, President Roosevelt saw the
need for greatly increasing our elec-
trio power potential. He not only
pressed for all possible expansion
of IVA and for completion Of such
projects as Grand Coulee, but sought
to persuade the private power COM
panies to increase their facilities in
every way. He had one memorable
conversation on the subject with
Wendell Willkie, then head Of the
Commonwealth e. Southern Co.
But any final evaluation of our
astonishing total war production
reveals that it would not have been
possible without the power generated
by the public projects.
Power Need Increases.
It was generally anticipated that
the end of the war would see q
falling OF in the need for power.

Taft Act Hit as Hearings
On Chicago Strike Close

CHICAGO, Jan. 8 R.-A con-
gressional investigation of the Chi
cago newspaper printers strike
ended yesterday with the observa-
ton by Representative Owens, Re-
publican, of Illinois that testimony
included vigorous" attacks on the
Taft-Hartley Act.
Representative Owens, chairman
OF the subcommittee which con-
Quoted the inquiry into the six
week-old deadlock between the
AFL International Typographical
Unions Local 16 and the Chicago
Newspaper Publishers Association,
said at the close: .
"We1l have to reread the evidence
before we make our report to the
House Labor Committee. However,
1t is apparent. there has been quite
a vigorous attack on the (Taft-
Hartley law by the head of the
1TU, and the publishers have said
that If 1t were not for the law
they would have been able to enter
into contract with the union"
At yesterdays session, Joseph
Rhoden, a member of Local 16s
Scale Committee, declared the
union has made every human
effort to get along under very trying
conditions Of the Taft-Hartley law"
The witness said 225 other en-
ployers had agreed to the TITUS
conditions of employment, and de-
clared "a compromise could have
been worked out" with Chicago
publishers.
There is something else behind
the attitude of the (Chicago) pub
lishers," Mr.. Rhoden said. IF they
had been motivated by a desire to
preserve their traditional friendli-
ness and cooperation, there would
not have been a strike today"
Mr.. Owens said the subcommittee
would investigate relations between
the ITU and Detroit publishers
next. but that no date has yet been
set. Well probably go to Wash
ington Tuesday and visit Detroit
later" he said.

In the name Of sheer prepared
ness it would seem to be obvious
that now is the time to take up In
earnest the further projects pro-
posed by Mr.. Roosevelt as iva be-
gan to demonstrate its usefulness
similar projects in the Missouri, the
Columbia. the Arkansas and other
valleys.
The annual report Of the Tennes-
sec Valley Authority. just made pub
lie, reveals what great thing the
people Of this country did for them
selves when they undertook the
development Of that immense half
tanned region. They discovered the
way to become truly prepared for
any threat to our democratic life
the way to become strong as a ma
tion. The question now Is whether
they will make use Of what they
have learned.
To quote from the report:
"The purpose Of this unified de-
velopment Is to increase the secur-
ity, well-being and prosperity OF the
people Of the valley by developing
their basic resources and making
them not only more productive in
the present but in perpetuity. This
will strengthen the region and
thereby add to the strength and
security OF the Nation. Many factors
are at work in bringing about in
creased prosperity and income in the
Valley, and among these are the
development Of basic resources of
soil, water, forests and minerals
under the program that has been
carried forward during the past IA
years through the partnership OF
the Federal Government and the
people of the Valley"

Of any action which might save the

that the Kremlin has not yet de-

Taft Act Violations
Charged Against lTU
by Commercial Firms
" N. A,sssioisd Pro-,

NEW YORK, Jan. 3.-The Ma.
tional Labor Relations Board yes
terday issued complaint against
the AFL International Topographic
cal Union and fiye Of It's locals In
New York, Detroit, Chicago and
Pittsburgh, charging violations Of
the Taft-Hartley Act In negotia-
tions with some 500 commercial
printing firms.
A hearing was set for February
4 at NLRB Offices here. The &C.
ton, based on the complaint Of
five employer associations Of print
ers, was announced by John J. Car
mody, acting NLRB regional direc-
tor.
Three Charges Made.
The complaint embraces these
accusations:
I. That the locals refused to bar
gain In good faith, insisting on .
contract that would maintain their
closed shops, outlawed by the Taft
Hartley Act.
2. That the ITU and Its locals
restrained and coerced" employees
in job-printing houses by insisting
on q closed shop, thus infringing
on employees unhampered collec-
tive bargaining rights.
3. That the ITU and the locals
attempted to force these employers
to discriminate against non-ITU
printers.
Mr.. Carmody said the union would
have 10 days to answer the COM
plant.
Should the charges be sustained
by a trial examiner, Mr.. Carmody
said, the NLRB could order the
union and its locals to bargain col
lectively with the complaining en-
ployer associations. The board Is
not empowered to take punitive ac-
ton.
File Complaints.
The complaints were made by
these groups representing CONNER
cial printers:

Research Finds That
Cancer Is Induced BY
Some Industry
Processes

STON (LPA) - Indus
trial workers are being exposed
to more and more substances
that are known to produce can
Ger, and researchers and indus
try had better move quickly to
meet these new hazards, the
American Public Health Asso-
citation was told last week.
New findings by researchers
at the National Cancer Insti-
tute, federally-supported agency,
are turning the attention of can
Ger experts to the whole ques-
ton of how many cases of can
Ger can be traced directly to
work involving cancer-including
compounds.
Most dangerous are industries
using radioactive substances,
h ig h = temperature distillation
and fractionation petroleum, and
the industries developing new
synthetic chemicals.
Known cancer-inducing COM
pounds, according to the Ma
tional Cancer Institute, include
arsenicals and coal tar products,
metallic compounds such as
cromates and nickel carbonyl
and chemicals such as benol,
SCOT tar, paraffin oil, creosote,
and dye intermediates.
And, the doctors at the Insti-
tute warn amy industrial de-
velopments using atomic energy
to crack oil and coal in the pro-
duction of liquid fuel will prob
ably furnish new cancer hazards
for workers coming into contact
with the processes.
While the Institute has just
set up a study of environment
tai cancer at Georgetown Uni
versity in Washington, d. c.,
there are already some safety
measures that can be put, into
effect, according to Institute of
ficials.
