Washington, D. C.—APL President
William Green hailed the election re
sults not only as a mandate for Pres
ident Roosevelt but for basic issues in
which labor is vitally interested.
Isolationism, he declared, was over
whelmingly rejected by the American
people, while such goals as quick vic
tory and jobs for all in the post-war
period were "endorsed by acclama
tion."
To win these goals, Mr. Green called
upon all Americans, regardless of
party affiliations, to wash out cam
paign antagonisms and unite for vic
tory in the war and in the peace.
Particularly gratifying, Mr. Green
declared, were the results of most
Congressional contests, which showed
that most of the candidates endorsed
b|r the AFL in accord with its non
partisan political policy triumphed.
Another big break for labor came
when the voters of California by an
indicated two to one majority defeated
the proposed State Constitutional
amendment banning the union shop.
(As this edition went to press, no
conclusive returns on the fate of sim
ilar proposals in Florida and Arkansas
were available).
The text of Mr. Green's comment
on the elections, phoned from his
home in Ohio where he went to vote,
follows:
"The results of the election consti
tute a mandate not only for the
President and his party but for cer
tain basic issues.
"The American people in this elec
tion have overwhelmingly rejected
isolationism. That should be clear
to everyone and it is the best possi
ble augury for the establishment of
lasting peace based upon international
cooperation.
"Both major tickets promised to
drive forward to victory in this war in
the shortest possible time and to press
for a program of economic security,
with jobs for all, in the post-war
period. These: major goals, therefore,
have been endorsed by acclamation.
"To attain them, however, it is vital
that both sides forget and forgive the
bitterness engendered by the political
campaign and that all Americans
march forward united as never before
toward prompt victory and enduring
peace.

Green Hails Vote Results
As Triumph For Labor
AFL-Endorsed Candidates Win In Most Congressional
Contests
"It is still too early to judge defi
nitely the outcome of contests in Con
gress but the returns now in show
that an overwhelmingly large number
of candidates endorsed by the Ameri
can Federation of Labor, in accord
ance with its non-partisan political
policy have won."
It was understood that Steelman
has before him proposals to take in
dustrial relations jobs in several ba
sic industries, as well as teaching of
fers from two large universities.
.During his tenure, Steelman trans
formed the conciliation service from
an industrial relations "fire depart
ment" which was customarily called to
settle a strike to an agency which has
devoted most of its time to settling
disputes before they reach the strike
stage.
Approximately 90 per cent of all
wartime labor disputes which came
before the Government were settled
by the conciliation service.

cretary of Labor Frances Perkins
praised Steelman for stressing "the
development and promotion of good
industrial relations between labor and
management."
"A larger and larger part of the
work of the service," Miss Perkins
said, "has been advisory and preven

as compared to the use of the service
only for handling a str»k*» after the

President Asks Draft
Boards To Push Job Of
Finding Work for Veterans
Washington, D. C. (ILNS.—Presi
dent Roosevelt has called upon the
nation's 6,500 local draft boards to
do everything possible "to assist the
veteran in obtaining reemployment on
discharge from the armed forces."
He praised the boards for meeting
the military drafts "while aiding in
dustry and agriculture to meet un
paralleled demands for war produc
tion." He described reemployment of
the veterans as "another important
task which must be discharged with
equal efficiency by the Selective Serv
ice System."
In a companion statement, Selective
Service Director Lewis B. Hershey
urged the boards to consider providing
"psychological as- well as* economic
aid" to veterans.
"The veteran returning ffoiw mili
tary service to. civilian life requires
not only aid to obtain a jab, but also
assistance for general readjustment,"
Hershey said.
"His habits and processes of
thought aa well as of action have been
radically changed by service in« the
armed forces. He must be assisted in
picking up the threads of his civilian
life, where he dropped them when he
went to war, and weave th* pattern of
