In those instances where tile paper Is at fault. It will reprint that part of the advertisement in which the ty pographieal mistake occurs. ':xh Before we break into hn.ahs for Oie enlightened patriotism of the United Auto Winkers, because of tile pay concessions they have voted, let's consider tie- record. Exactly what is it that is to be given up and what docs the U.A.W. prop sc to ft tain. What is the background against which the proffer was made? The union is willing that its luenihers should work 40 hours a week for the regular pay scale. If, in the effort to keep our national plant and equipment producing to capacity, this basic week must include Sundays or holidays, the union will not require six days' pay for five days' work. That is concession Number One. But if overtime actually is worked, the agreement does net waive penalty stales, ordinarily at time and a half. Rather, it is left that pay for all work over 10 hours a week shall be in government bonds. 40-ho- Stripped of all extraneities, this means that the union will contract that its members shall purchase government bonds with everything they earn through overtime work on war production. That is a fine, patriotic gesture, worthy of emulation by anybody whose income is above the subsistei.ee level. For it the delegates representing 513,000 workers deserve congratulations, when and if the plan becomes effective. To the extent that the treasury exjccts to have difficulty in marketing enough bonds to finance this war, the U.A.W. proposal is valuable. But only to that extent. For the effectuation of the plan is not going to save the United States a single dollar in the purchase of the materiel of war. Exactly as many billions will be borrowed, to pay for the war, whether the bonds are bought by the U.A.W. membership with their overtime pay or by willing subscribers who know how badly their dollars are needed, and dont object to an interest rate rather liberal in these days. These concessions have to be considered in the light of two things. First that they are conditioned upon acceptance of a nine-poiprogram which, sound and enlightened for the most part, is economically unworkable in at least one detail. The union demands both price control and wage increases. That wont work. Second, the fact that the whole problem of overtime pay is one of cost, we can produce under the present pay scales. The men will work Sundays, holidays and nights at a price. So it isnt a matter of production primarily. The d trouble is that even this rich nation is going to be by the size of the bill we are contracting in order s to supply the entire world with food and weapons. The relatively small income waived by men whose normal shift includes Sundays, or an occasional holiday, doesnt scratch the surface of the real problem. Give credit to the U.A.W. for a fine gesture. But lets look this gift horse in the mouth and see if he will prove worth his keep after we get him into the barn if we do. nt hard-presse- anti-axi- JH A R R YiT P vj nA tv 12 Female saint (abbr.).

GUINEA PIG GAS RATION It hasnt been announced yet, but the State of Maine probably will be used as a guinea pig to test the rationing of gasoline. Frank Bane of the Office of Price Administration recently con- ferred with the Maine Congressional delegation, and subsequent-- 1 ly sent a proposal to Augusta for approval of the Governor and Executive Council. The proposal would set up gas Maine on May 1, one rationing month earlier than in other eastern states, to non the wrinkles out of the system. Maine was cho.xen as the guinea pig because of its isolated position. It is the only state which has only one other state contiguous to it New' Hampshire.

April 16 When the Japanese delivered their infamous blow on Dec. 7, contractors who were building naval stations on Wuke and Guam had about-140employes on the two jobs, largely workmen recruited from the western U. S. Only a few of these workmen were killed or injured. The majority presumably were transferred to Japan as prisoners of war. About half of these workmen were young and single, but t h e others were family men with dependents living in the United States For ber, January and February, the employers paid the wages of these men to their families.
