In a recent*address at th§^7t*merican Federation of Labor convention in Boston, Atherton did not pull any punches. In fact he brought his blows right up from the floor, all jolting haymakers against strikes and strikers. The Labor crowd—that is, some of them—did not like the plain spoken utterances of the Legion head. But Atherton scored, a big hit with the general public - this nation. His denunciation of strikes as treasonable was a two-fisted truth which American people in general will subscribe to. Atherton went on to say that if it is treason for a soldier to reifuse to use his gun, then too, it would be treason for a man who is fortunate enough to be on the home front to do anything that keeps that .soldier from getting that gun. Citing a recent .strike of Pacific Electric trainmen. Ether- ton declared that he did not know why the trainmen went on a strike and that the public doesn’t^ know either, but “we'' lost more planes and ships in those few days the strike was on than the enemy .knocked down in that weejc.” Atherton frankly admitted that he was wiHing to con cede that the trainmen’s demands might be justified but he said, “an arbitration court has rendered a deci.sipp.’V “Maybe it was wrong,” he continued, “I don’t «0#. ; That isn’t the-point. When the umpire calls a marv^w, hf^’a^but The umpire may be wrong but the man is still oiA. That’s the ^ American system.” tv ; ' \ Atherton scored again when he'sai^'that 1,855 strikes,, which occured during the first six months Of tliis year, in volved 1,974,000 workers despite “no-strike” assurances and "^despite “What I think is the wish and desire of loyal union wprkers.” Asserting that a more certain road to victory could be traveled by the elimination of profiteering and racketeering Atherton added that the “Right way to fix prices is to fix every price from peanuts to pig iron.” .

CONGRESSMAN JOHNSON IS MAD Congre.ssman Johnson of Illino.s, is not afraid to speak out in the meeting. .And it happened this way. Some of our senators who just returned from that globe-circling inspec tion of battle fronts are displeased over the fact that we are making great sacrifices to supply about 70 per cent dif all Allied oil, while the Briti.sh have oil refineries and unlimited quantities o’f oil in the near East which could easily be ship ped. . Says The Charlotte Observer: “Iraq and Iran,-British and Dutch-controlled, produce over 120 million barrels of oil annually, and as the manager of the Anglo-Persian Oil company told one of our senators, could produce 60 per cent more. With the drain on our oil reserves, will we awaken when this war'ends to find ourselves dependent on the British Empire for* oil? No wonder those senators wished to reveal what they learned from that trtxr behind closed dooiB.” But to get back to Congrejisman Johnson. He told his colleagues last week that they “sat supinely by and watched while the people you represent are being taken for the damne dest financial sled ride the world has ever known.” “While this Congress idles,” he said, “our Capitol has become the international headquarters oif the ‘order of the empty satchel,’ where delegates a.^emble in answer to the urging of .starry-eyed ‘globats’ who course the world making lush and ridiculous promises of American goods and Ameri can money, while here at home our people are forced to give up and pay for hundreds of e.ssentialS such as farm machin ery, fooil. gasoline, clothing, and even crude rubber, that thes.e articles may be -given to non-combatants . . .” . (4.)ngre.ssnian Jphnson also pointed out that England’s war budget for this year is 21 billions of dollars, while ours is approximately 120 billions of dollar.s. And, .says The Charlotte Ob.server: “At a time like this"^ it would be con sidered ‘unpatriotic’ and mo.st ‘un-American’ to say that Con- gre.s.sman Johiusyn is right.

One Job Wdl Don* Begots Another T HERE’S no satitfaction In all the world like the feeling of having done a job well — of being able to see the rciuUt of your work. This ie one thing that all producers of useful things have in common.' And those of us whose job it production—whether of goods on farms and in factories, 05 of services in stores and banks and util'ties —can best see the rpsults of our work in the high standard of living which we have helped to create in America. For this standard is built 00 our ability tp produce more per person than any other 0 nation on earth. And the people of every country, who are looking bopefuITy to us tot food and weapons, can count on America because it has this great productive might. After the war is over? Many people are talking about a richer life for all of us then. And* they’re rightl For tbAt richer life will be brougM about, not by promieee, but by hard work on the part of America’s producers. And they—tbpee who grow and make and do things—can* do this post-war job better if they work together and understand each other. Generd Electric Co., Eehenectodg, N. T.
