Everyone is being urged to think
about postwar planning and to do as
much of it as possible.
And a good deal of postwar plan
ning talk is bunk.
Only a very few can do any
large scale postwar planning, be
cause only a few know enough
about the factors involved and no
body knows all of them.
Domestic postwar planning depends
opon a lot of things.
Among these are: Do we have in
flation or not? Do we have depression
or prosperity? What new materials
shall we have and what will be the
patent restrictions?
What new methods shall we have
attd how will they be controlled?
Will world cartels be out the window
or in the parlor?
Will new devices be in mass pro
dnction in six months, or in two
ymn?

them? What will go into export
and what will be available for
home folks?
That leads to international ques
tions.
Will Russia dominate the continent
of Europe, economically, after the
war? Will Britain gain or lose in eco
nomic might and prestige? Will
P'ranee be a vassalage, or a real na
tion again? Will there be a Poland?
Or & Czecho Slovakia? And, with or
without power to buy?
What will Latin America, with her
new, large and growing trade balance,
want from us? All of these questions
affect postwar planning.
What sort of a Germany will exist
after the war?
How much of our own economy will
continue to be a war economy?
In other words, how much of our
productive ability will go on producing
army and navy commodities?
What encouragements, restraints, or
false moves, will there be from our
own government, in the transition
stage
What will labor think and do, or
fail to do?
Brother, when you talk postwar
planning, you are talking about the
biggest riddle of our time.
And yet, if there is no effort to
plan, the muddle may well lead to the
wildest chaos and heart-break.
It could be hand grenades

apples for. sale on the street

the tax load and what will be the load
of money required for veterans, in one

What percentage of spendable

The economy of the world will be
changed—nothing less.
Maybe you'll wear the same kind of
clothes, but youH pay with different
money—money of a new and perhaps
lower worth.
International airports will be almost
as numerous as local way stations.
A new world will be in the quick
making. But YOU can do some plan

bilize your own affairs, to save money
in war bonds, so that you can parry

UNION LABEL BROADCAST
Washington, D. C.—An interesting
and educational talk on the "Union
Label—Emblem of American Stand
ards," will be broadcast by I. M. Orn

Union Label Tirades Department over
the Mutual net work from coast to
coast on July 6 from 11:15 to 11:30

Your Bonds Now Buy More
Washington, D. C.—A year ago
when a group of workers decided to
buy enough bonds to finance the pur
chase of a heavy bomber, they had to
raise $500,000. Today, the same bomb
er can be purchased for half that
amount, the War Department reports
Why Because both plants and
workers have developed an efficiency
of operation traceable to experience
and because costs have gone down as
production went up.
So the same union war workers who
have led all other groups in bond pur
chases are partly responsible for the
increased purchasing power of those
bonds. The suggestions for improving
and speeding production that war
workers have made have done much
to lower those costs.
Be More Careful to Preven^
Accidents July 4, Council Urges
"Put victory first on the Fourth!"
The National Safety Council thus
appeals to every citizen to enlist in
a nation-wide campaign to reduce the
huge annual Fourth of July holiday

E and Puthoff Sts.
One hundred and thirty other na
tional organizations have joined with
the council in a united effort to pre
vent an avalanche of holiday accidents
that would waste manpower, material
and time needed to bafic up America's
fighting often in the crucial invasion
period.
The campaign is designed to help
public officials, traffic officers and
safety leaders in their efforts to curb
the annual jamboree of carelessness
which marks the July 4 holiday period.
"Gas or no gas," said Col. John
Stilw&H, president of the council,
"traffic deaths are going up through
out the country, and we may as well
face the fact that unless drivers and
pedestrians use more care, the Fourth
of July accident toll will skyrocket.
"Holidays traffic will be heavy, be
yond a doubt. Thousands of wartime
factories will be running full blast,
and hundred of thousands of war
workers will be going to and from
their jobs. To this essential traffic
must be added the holiday travel
which while lighter than in pre-war
days, perhaps still will present added
public hazard.
"The least we can do on the home
front to help our boys on the battle
front is to prevent accidents that de
lay victory and increase the battle
toll."
AFL MEMBERS PROUD
OF THEIR WORK
Washington, D. C.—All America
was thrilled by the spectacular bomb
ing of Japan by long-range Super
fortresses, but no one got as big a
kick out of the news as the thousands
of AFL workers who make these
giiants of the air.
In Boeing plants at Seattle, Wichita
and other sections of the country
where the Superfortresses are in pro
duction, AFL workers pledged them
selves to increase output of the
world's biggest, newest and most pow
erful bombing plane.
Millions of words were printed in
the newspapers in praise of the great
Superfortresses, but few mentioned
the fact that the skill and genius of
union workers made them possible.
One of the few exceptions was Un
der Secretary of War Robert P. Pat
terson, who said:
"The bombing of the islands of
Japan by our new Superfortresses, the
B-29, is just a beginning. We will
strike at the heart of Japan again and
again. The Superfortresses are a prod
uct of American labor and industrial
genius and are a very tangible exam
ple of the partnership existing be
tween those laboring on the home
front and the armed forces in the ac
tive theaters of war."
VOTE FOR REAFFILIATION
GROWS IN ITU POLL
Newark, N. J.—Latest tabulation of
returns in the referendum held by the
International Typographical Union on
the question of re affiliation with the
American Federation of Labor shows
a majority of 5,612 votes in favor of
such action.

the Referendum Committee, an
nounced that as of May 26 the vote
stood:

Mr. Herrmann declared the major

as new returns come in and he prew

the AFL fold in a short time.
Women Found Getting Pay
Equal to Men's In Union Jobs
Halifax, N. S. (ILNS).—The em
ployment for women committee of the
local women's Council has reported to
the annual meeting of the council that
women in union jobs and doing the
same work as men, are receiving thfr
same wages as men, but that women
doing the same work, as men but un
der non-union conditions, are being
paid "considerably less than the men"
they are working with.
sr &<
This information was gleaned in
survey made by the special committer
during the past year. The survey wa|
limited to Halifax and suburbs and
included full time and part time worlc v 1 ajL
in and out of war industries.
