factory Almost employing 80000 persons immediately there were reports of violence at this factory owned and operated by the only big industrialist who never has had a union The basis of the battle in the Ford plant between strikers and management was a matter of 10 cents an hour more or less to bring the Ford wages until recently higher than in competing auto factories up to the r level General As the Ford strike brewed and broke 400000 woikers in the industry John L Lewis’ personal C I O union stopped work pending negotiation of a new wage contract to take the place of one which had expired This newest strike brought from President Roosevelt the "hope" that this walkout would not be of long enough duration to endanger the national defense But the government which had put Dr Dykstra in charge of a labor mediation board and which had and othdumped the er strikes in the lap of this new seemed to the public organization to be making little progress in getting the full manpower of the U S to work on national defense It was being plainly said in Wash ington that unless there was some immediate amelioration of the labor problem some form of national defense labor law would find favor with the President To millions of hours of work lost in January February and March April started out even worse with more violence more men idle and defense work still more disrupted Though plane

battle were estimated at 40000 who had been in the battle of Cher-eand who had escaped from there to fight again at Asmara They were now said to be trapped with their backs to the sea and the British navy blocking retreat In Ethiopia the British forces were striking inland toward Addis Ababa capital of the country on the heels of the retreating army of the duke of Aosta The duke’s original forces at Addis Ababa were estimated at 40000 men This army was being added to by small garrisons who were withdrawing toward the capital and other parts of Ethiopia and it was expected that when the battle of Ethiopia finally was staged the total of Fascist troops would be around 60000 The fall of Asmara was accomplished with little fighting the British army being met by a delegation which was carrying a white was on the threshold of war or if the nation was bluffing it was willing to carry the bluff to the verge of actual hostilities Nazi reconnaissance planes flew over a key city of southern Serbia and there was a brief air raid alarm This was considered a good intimation that the Nazis meant business and that the 75000 soldiers amassed on the eastern frontier would be increased and would be the nucleus of an attacking force It was interesting that most of the press attacks on the Jugoslavian situation in Berlin were directed at British Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden whose series of visits to the southern Balkans and Turkey and Greece were followed by Jugoslavia's firm decision to stand by Britain and Greece even at the cost of bloodless revolution The Berlin papers referred to Eden in the most caustic terms and it was apparent that even as Berlin blamed Eden for the Jugoslavian situation so Eden would be getting credit for it in Britain The crucial point nj the Jugoslavian situation was whether the Serbs and Croats would get together and flag Even while the British were claimachieve a united front Macek the leader of the Croats was still in ing to have 100000 Fascists
