AeEOOKHAG
AND

By Ellen Hagedorn

There is nothing we look
forward to with more eager
ness each day, than the arrival
of the mailman. There is
nothing that leaves us as de-
jected as to see him saunter
nonchalantly by.
Does that happen to you, too?
Most of us are pleased to re-
ceive mail, but are rather lax
in our own correspondence.
This little verse, sent to me
Il blush to admit by a friend,
may help to send you hustling
for paper and pen.
"A little line from a friend
of mine
Is welcome now and then.
I count on you, as friend most
true,
I know you'll write = but
when?"

He said it was possible that,
''by a narrow construction of the

THE entire situation, he add

Labor Day Message From
President Harry S. Truman

THE FOURTH Labor Day the affords opportunity
to tribute the achievements of American labor the

The skill energy of American workers have played a

Despite stresses and strains in general we have sue

cornerstone in international efforts bring about world recovery
and prosperity lasting American labor has never
Wavered its of bipartisan effort to win

Our goal to continue to increase production and
standard of living
Equally important improve the fairness of the dis
tribuion of the fruits of our labor.
Our American life is the best of life in the world
But and improve Some workers their actual
earnings reduced despite by the rising tide OF
faton We to this dislocaton We must
curb initiation before it leads to economic disaster
Some workers lack the protection of decent minimum
We must relieve such injustice increase the minimum wage
level from 40 cents hour least IS cents hour
Too workers lack the protection of adequate social
security and national health insurance program We must
vide this security for them.
All American workers lack the services which should and
with adequate staff and adequate funds This situation must be
remedied
Finally there present the statute books law which
unfairly restricts labor unions and their members should be
pealed

/ The program that labor has es-
poused is one of progress and
betterment. It is dedicated to the
ideal of human rights and well
fare; to the cooperation of the
various economic groups in our
country for the good of all.
In almost every aspect of our
community and national life we
may find, if we want to see them,
the great contributions which the
vital force of labor have made to
the general welfare. No other
segment of our society has contri-
buted more.
The vital force of labor is re-
sponsible for our high standard
of living. 1t has brought us ever
closer to the realization of our
traditional ideals of economic and
political democracy.
! These are the real measure of
our industrial spirit, the ingre-
dents of which our great vital
force as Nation is compounded
They have been achieved through
the democratic process of free
collective bargaining, the means
by which workers won a full
partnership in our free, competi-
tive economy.
But the fact remains that the
passage of State and Federal le-
gislation restricting labor's hard
won rights, and striking at the
very foundation of free collective
bargaining. leaves the future
welfare of the workers on dan
gerous quicksands.
The anti-labor forces, having
gained the upperhand, are press
ing their advantage. An attempt
has been made to reduce labor's
voice in the Government to a
whisper. The u. S. Department of
Labor's appropriations have been
cut and important manpower and
industrial relations fun C on S
taken away.
Nothing has been done effec-
lively to curb initiation. Social
security benefits have not been
increased to meet the cost of
living or extended to workers not
now covered.
If the industrial spirit is the
vital force of our Nation, the
workers cannot help but ques-
ton and doubt the present course
which these anti-labor forces
have charted for the Nation be-
cause it cannot strengthen that
vital force, but only weaken it.
Labor Day is the logical time
for pulling ourselves up short,
replotting our course and point
ing ourselves once more in the
direction of freedom - free in
stitutions, free collective bar
gaining and a free, competitive
economy.

From MOROAN PHILLIPS,
Secretary, British Labor Party
Once again, upon the occasion
of Labor Day, the British Labor
Party sends a message of warm
friendship and fraternal greet
ings to our American trade
union comrades.
The American peoples Of
fer of economic aid to Europe
and their decision to participate,
by the side of the European dem
ocracies, in defense of spiritual,
economic and political freedom,
have infused fresh hope into the
War-devastated countries free to
make their choice; and we deeply
appreciate the vision, generos-
ity and far r-sightedness shown by
the people of the United States.
We look forward to an ever
closer cooperation and under
standing between the labor
of our two countries,
believing that in the triumph
of our ideals lies the surest
guarantee for the healing and
pacification of the nktions.

sponsibilities of the future. And
they will find some serious losses
to be repaired, as we'll as impor'
tant gains to be counted,
Labor Day was founded sc
years ago as labor's own holi-
day. But, its founder, Peter j.
Mcguire, had a broader purpose
in mind for he hoped Labor Day
would eventually become "an oc-
casion devoted to the industrial
spirit, the great vital force of
every nation"
Labor Day Is now national
holiday, observed generally by
all of the people. 1t is time de-
voted to the industrial spirit, as
Mcguire had hoped, because it is
a day on which tribute is paid
to the workers for the contribu-
tions they have made to the
strength, prosperity, and well-be-
ing of our country.
No greater tribute could be
paid TO the workers of the Uni
ted States than to give them the
credit that is due them for the
part they have played in creating
the industrial spirit which helped
win two World Wars and, at the
conclusion of World War II,
placed US in a position of lead
ership for the establishment of
world peace
1T is NOTEWORTHY that labor

advocate international coopera-
ton and support the European

CLAIMS RUSSIANS
 COULD TAKE MANY
 ALASKA AIRFIELDS

! SEATTLE, May 26-tPL- Between planes in Seattle last night, National Commander Ray Brannaman of the Veterans of Foreign Wars com mented on U. s. defenses in Alaska. Brannaman was enroute to Denver after inspecting installations at Anchorage, Fairbanks, Nome, Se- ward, Homer, Naknek and Kodiak.
 He said Russia could take over many airfields Tn Alaska at any time. Army strategy now-because of lethargy on the part of Congress and the compiacency of the Ameri- can people seems to be to let the Russians effect successful landings and then try to bomb them out"
 He added If there is an invasion of Alaska by Russia the U. s. might well wish it had diverted some of the millions Icing sent to Europe to the defense of our northern iron tier"
