Of all the peoples who suffered suf-fered from 1814 to 1918, none bled and died for their country more than the Serbs. Exactly one third of the population was lost in those four bloody years. And the most significant thing1 about their decision last week was the fact Ciat the Serbian people chose war, remembering: 1914 and knowing: that exactly the same fate awaited them again. y 'I NEPOTISM CHAMPION" Senator Dennis Chavez was hitting- closer to home than most people realized vhen, during- the lend-lease debate, he asserted that passage of the aid-Britain measure meas-ure would bankrupt the treasury. If anyone has reason to grow excited about the possibility of a depleted treasury. It the Junior senator from New Mexico, who has more relatives on the public payroll than any man in congress. This Is saying a lot because there are several mighty effective nepotists nepo-tists there. It would take a corps of census cen-sus tabulators to enumerate all the members of the Chavez clan who have public Jobs in Washington Wash-ington and New Mexico, but here's a bird's-eye view of the most important: Uennis Chavex Jr., son, secretary secre-tary to his father $3,900 Dave Chavez, brother, New Mexico district judge $6,000 Barbara Sena, sister, teacher in a state school in New Mexico $1,800 Raymond Esplnosa, brother-in-law, chief of a new alien investigating investi-gating unit n the Justice Department De-partment $6,500 GUberto E pi no a, brother of Raymond, also on the Justice Department De-partment payroll as Assistant U.

LABOR SABOTAGE Most tragic thing about the present chaotic labor situation is the black eye which a minority of labor is giving to their coworkers co-workers all over the country. In the majority of, plants and shipyards, ship-yards, men are working without interruption. But in certain key plants, so vital to the national defense that they could not have been picked by accident, a small minority have bogged down production. Sometimes this happens through strikes, sometimes through slow-ing-up and sabotage so delitrrate that behind it must lurk a definite def-inite attempt by Communists to hold back national defense. The Navy, for instance, lias reports re-ports of workmen repairing warships war-ships who sleep regularly in the turrets, thn collect a full day's pay. Navy yards have had especial espe-cial trouble with welders. At the Boeing airplane plant In Seattle, a slow-up system is now under Federal investigation.

It finally has turned its sabotage suspicions over to the eagle eye of J. Edgar Hoover. Next to hurting defense plans, most tragic result of this slow-up strategy is the effect upon the new draft army. When the men in the camps hear of civilian w.o r k m e n getting shake-down wages for slow-up tactics, compared com-pared with their meager army pay, it doesn't make for good morale. EMPLOYER OBSTRUCTION While labor has been "hitting the headlines for defens'e obstruc tion, less publicized but equally obstructive has been the attitude of certain business elements, among them the shipbuilders, who dickered endlessly with the TJ. S. Maritime Commission regarding the construction of 200 desperately desper-ately needed cargo vessels. This program was adopted in January, but to date the Commission Commis-sion has not been able to complete com-plete negotiations, for quite all the 200 ships. The Bethlchem-Fairfield Shipyard, Ship-yard, Inc., of Baltimore, for instance, in-stance, battled the Commission for two months over a fat fee. . The ' Commission proposed " a $110,000 base fee per ship, to be reduced to $60,000 if not delivered by a certain deadline, or increased to $140,000 if produced ahead of time. But Bethlehem rejected the penalty clause, vigorously insisting insist-ing on a fixed fee regardless of when the ships were produced. For weeks, while the shipping crisis daily grew more critical, the controversy raged. Finally, on March 18.. the company backed down and accepted the Commission's Commis-sion's terms. Under them Bethlehem-Fair-fiold stands to collect-a' total fee of $5,500,000 on the 50 ships assigned as-signed it. In addition, it also garnered gar-nered a $7,838,000 government contract for thirteen ways and other construction paraphernalia. Meanwhile, two precious months went by and not a lick was turned turn-ed on these frantically needed cargo vessels.

A panoramic portrait of Utah issues in bookform this week with the publication by Hastings House, New York City, of the Utah Guide of the WPA Guide series. The book may be termed to have two divisions; the first dealing with essays on many topics of interest to Utahns, and the second dealing with tours written to interest and inform the person traveling the state's highways. A fair, impartial, and compre hensive survey of the Mormon church and the Mormons gives the book the flavor of Utah since the day Brigham Young entered the Great Salt Lake Valley up until today. The guide deals, how ever, not with this one phase or with this one period, but with the land from the earliest age known to science, carrying the reader smoothly through the first step when traces of mankind left their imprint, on through the period when Utah was inhabited only by Indians up and through Mormon civilization to the present time. Seventeen tours cover the state exhaustively in a manner calcu lated not only to interest the visiting tourist, but to interest the person who reads purely for the love of good and lively read? ing. Each tour gives a complete coverage of Its section and is de'-signed de'-signed to supply accurate information infor-mation and interesting detail on that region it covers. Primarily written to Interest the person with a car, the book will doubtless be in wide demand by readers of all ki nds as well as by scholars and students, and institutions insti-tutions of learning where the guide will be used as a solid base for research on Utah. The guide, as stated in the foreword, was writ ten with a threefold goal in mind complete coverage, accuracy, and readibillty and this goal has been achieved within the bounds exacted by the limitations and complexity of the work.
