COMPLETE CONTROL
Military authorities appear deter
mined to take over every function of
government of our nation but seem to
have struck a snag in the Military
Affairs Committee of the House,
which has turned down their demand
for a labor draft.

brass hats—seem to believe that mis
takes can be covered up by extending
their jurisdiction, by demanding more
power over our people. They want
complete authority to do as they
please with everything and every
body. And that is the Hitlerian, Prus
sian system we want nothing to do
with.
The American people—the workers
and industrialists have supplied
military authorities with all the men
they can use, with all the planes,
tanks, guns and ammunition they can
use, but we have not yet reached the
point where we can believe the Mili
tary (with a capital M) is the goal of
success. This government was not
founded on militarism, as is Germany,
and military brass hats seem to be
the same all over the world.
The people of America don't forget
what happened at Pearl Harbor. The
Japanese there stole a march not on
the American people but on our mili
tary experts. More than 3,000 people
and millions of dollars in equipment
were destroyed there on December 7,
1941, which enabled the enemy to con
quer the Pacific area. And the cam
paign in Italy is no monument to the
ingenuity of our military experts.
We are now giving them all the
money they can use, all the men they
can train, and all the ammunition
they can burn. Let 'em show us some
results before they demand that the
entire nation be placed in their
charge.

Representative Hamilton Fish of
New York introduced the resolution,
which may explain why it got scant
mention. For years, a bitter campaign
has been conducted by many news
papers and radio writers and com
mentators against Fish and they don't
want him to have credit for anything
that is likely to meet with popular
approval, such as his resolution on
feeding Europe. Incidentally, it may
be mentioned that despite all efforts
to defeat Fish, the people of his dis
trict have continued to reelect him
with great regularity, by substantial
majorities.
Approval of Representative Fish's
resolution completed Congress ap
proval of feeding Europe's hungry,
providing it can be done without aid
ing the Germans. Under the direction
of Herbert Hoover, this was done in
World War 1 and there seems no rea
son why it can't be done now.
Commenting on passage of his reso
lution, Representative Fish told the
House, "we must not let the matter
rest here. I hope the women of Amer
ica will write to the Secretary of
State and to the President urging him
to use their influence to start feeding
the children of Europe before it is
too late."
"Even now," he added, "millions of
his entire cabinet and also on telling
us what to think now and afterward.
Fortunately, however, -we have in
this country outstanding citizens who
realize that the daily newspapers and
industrial tycoons have not always
been omnipotent in their advice and
have not always led us in the right
path. The memorable year 1929 is still
remembered, and what happened then
will always be a monument to the
dumbness of the (at that time) rulers
of our nation.
The New York conference of offi
cials of labor, industry and govern
ment a few weeks ago was attended
by men and women who realize here
is a job to be done when the war ends,
and they contributed to a program
which will help the people not only of
this country but all over the world to
get enough to eat and keep a roof
over their heads.
Countries across the Atlantic, no
table Britain, also—even in the midst
of Nazi bombs—are looking in the
same direction, and it is to be hoped
that a world-wide plan for the better
ment of all peoples will emerge not
after Hitler is destroyed but will be
in working order immediately when
needed. It took us a year to convert to
war production, but we just can't af
ford a year of idleness in getting back
on our feet. Our people will need
work then as much as our fighting
forces need war materials now.

COMMENT ON WORLD EVENTS
NOT
much publicity was given in
the daily press to the recent
unanimous passage by the House of
Representatives of a resolution urg
ing the State Department to use its
influence to relax the blockade to per
mit sending of food to the hungry
women and children of German-occu
pied nations.
THE BUTLER COUNTY PRESS
European children will be crippled for
life, and if food is not forthcoming
soon, the future destiny of these oc
cupied nations will be ghastly beyond
words."
Fish said that in the last war Her
bert Hoover fed 7,000,000 Belgians
without a pound of food reaching the
German. This led Rep. Edith Nourse
Rogers of Massachusetts to remark:
"Why not ask former President
Hoover to feed the hungry children
again? He did a good job then."
The Fish resolution asks that the
Secretary of State work out a plan
for distributing food in the war-rav
aged countries with the help of Great
Britain, Switzerland and Sweden. Bel
gian, Norway, Poland and other na
tions have the money to pay for the
food and have specifically requested
such help, the resolution says.
In line with- the resolution, Dr.
Howard E. Kershner, chairman of the
Temporary Council on Food for Eu
rope's Children, 70 Fifth Avenue,
New York City, has appealed to Presi
dent Roosevelt to "star the mercy
ships before it is too late."
Dr. Kershner, who was until re
cently director of Quaker Relief in
Europe, declared it was important to
get food to the children of occupied
Europe before the invasion because
the ensuing military operations would
destroy all means of communication
and make it impossible to get food to
the children for some time.
The American Federation of Labor
Executive council, at its January
meeting, asked help for the children
and said that it was "strongly of the
opinion food should be sent immedi
ately."

EXECUTIVE COUNCIL
HOLDS MEETING
Philadelphia. The Executive
Council of the American Federation
of Labor will hold its Spring meeting
here at the Adelphia Hotel beginning

The Council decided to come to this

Organization is in session here and
several of the top AFL officials are
seiving as advisers at the ILO con
ference.
Furthermore it is expected that the
Executive Council may take advant
age of the opportunity to act immedi
ately in support of some of the major
recommendations of the ILO meeting
on the establishment of conditions
making for wold security and lifting
of labor standards.
The Executive Council will devote
most of its two-week session to the
consideration of policies designed to
help America and the United Nations
win the war in the shortest possible
time.
It is also expected that the Council
will seek to strengthen and implement
the non-partisan policy of the Federa
tion in the coming national campaign.
