The strain.of service has done it and they are unaware of what has taken place within them. Mostly those around them at home are similarity unaware. That's where the rub comes. eminent psychiatrist points out that something of the same na ture has happened to great numbers of civilians. Many have been sent far from home they have been under the long strain of steady rush work they have accumulated worries. They, too, off key. 3BSSSai^E?§g^^SS^^SKaK?®^!SS^^ 1 "•& XLhc $riesmef$nmro~ PAUL A. SICK FUNERAL HOME i DAY AND NIGHT SERVICE 422 N.

In some cases solution will come easily in other not so easily. We have two main types of home comers, those who come back through what are known as administrative channels, the other- through medical channels. The medical cases are cared for in service hospitals. Already the psychi atric facilities are over-taxed. But there are among those who look well and seemingly are well, a per centage of men and women who are somewhat out of tune, or off key, mentally. we have two major groups, each with a greater or less degree of men tal mal-adjustment. Nothing like it has ever happened before. Unions, being organized bodies, with facilities for reaching large num bers of individuals, can help meet the needs of the time in this very iai portant field. If you ask a good doctor what's to be done he probably will say that, for the great masses of people the things to be done are few and sim ple. But they are extremely important. First in order is that vague thing called "understanding". To use more than just that one word, let us call it patience, tolerance, and a very high and keen regard for the wishes of others. The returnee is not to be regarded as either a freak or a hero. If he doesn't want to talk, let him remain quiet. If he wants to be alone, at least appear to permit him to be alone. Let HIM be the guide to YOUR conduct. That's a pretty safe rule for the average civilian to follow. And it goes for the returning worker just as it does the returning service man, or woman. One doctor tells the returnee likes to find his own quarters as they were. Familiar things seem to have great importance. It would be a good idea for unions to have talks by psychiatric authori- ,v£5^ .- J-, WJfWMyMJM/MWP&w IBank lona ^HAMILTON. OHIO. oomammra uuK^niBnu nw QUALITY COALS & COKE DUERSCH COAL CO.

We are told that it is possible for us to have a considerable volume of permanent mental unbalance unless the situation is handled with some degree of intelligence. That makes it important for all of us. Where men are injured so that the injury is visible, there is another kind of situation, in the sense that it re quires more tact and more self con trol on the jp&rt of the home folks.

OFFICIAL HOLDS SMALL BUSINESS VITAL TO JOBS AFTER THE WAR Washington, D. C. (ILNS).—Wayne Taylor, Undersecretary of Commerce championed small business as vital to postwar employment, in speaking at the opening session of a series an management aid for small business in the Department of Commerce auditor ium. "We must have a thriving small business population if we are to reach our postwar employment goal," Taylor said. "It is estimated that 3 million returning service men and women will go into business and agriculture for themselves at the close of the war. "To obsorb the additional workers we must expand business from 30 to 45 percent in the years immediately after the war as compared with the 1940 level." Taylor recognized that uncertain ties and difficulties of the reconver sion period lie ahead and he pledged full cooperation of the Department of Commerce in aiding the proprietors of small business. At the present time he said, the Department is issuing pamphlets to help those launching in to small business and is anxious for personal conferences with those con templating such ventures. vsia^ YOUR PERSONAL GOAL- -AT LEAST ONE EXTRA $100 BONDI ^IZfAf s i 1 Call 47 or 160 Vhen You Are Ready To: FILL Your BIN With Gootf COAL or COKE Now I# ®ie Time *, AFL PLEDGES MILLION DOLLARS INWARRONDS New Orleans.—In ft nation-wide radio broadcast/ AFL President Wil* liam Green pledged that the 7,000,000 members of the American Federation of Labor will buy a $1,000,000 worth of war bonds during, the current sixth war loan drive. Mr. Green spoke at a tally of con vention delegates and union repre sentatives at the Hotel Roosevelt. He said: "The 7,000,000 members of the American Federation of Labor, repre sented here by their union leaders, responded to their country's urgent call by pledging to invest every pos sible dollar of their earnings and sav ings in war bonds during the sixth war loan drive which opens tonight. 'Our loyal American workers have given their sons to fight in the cause of freedom they have given their toil and their genius, and many have given their lives too, while serving as sol diers in the army of production on the home front. It is unthinkable that they should hold back their dollars, especially now when every ounce of extra effort and every last penny of idle money is vitally needed to deal Hitler the final, crushing blow. "Most workers do not have large sums left over their weekly wages after paying household expenses in these days of high living costs. But remember—every bit we remit is a hit against Hitler. Let that be la bor's slogan in this drive. "Already the small individual amounts regularly invested in war bonds by the men and women of labor under the payroll allotment plan have mounted uf to the staggering total of $14,000,000,000. So don't think your purchases, modest as they may be, do not count. A millionaire may be able to make a large and spectacular bond investment. But there aren't many millionaires. The small baby bonds purchased by millions of workers add up to much more important money than the few big investors can muster. "Just think of it. If each and every member of the American Federation of Labor will buy at least one $100 bond during this drive, the total would be $7,000,000. But let us set our sights higher than that. Let's aim at a $1, 000,000,000 quota for the AFL. We can and must reach it. "So let the word go out from this mass meeting in New Orleans, where the 6th annual convention of the American Federation of Labor is in progress, that labor will proudly do its part and make its full contribution toward the defeat and destruction xf Hitler." Printers Union Rejects Three Proposals Indianapolis (ILNS).—Members of e I n e n a i o n a y o a ical Union rejected almost 2 to 1 a proposal to confer strike-calling pow ers on the executive council and to pool all the financial resources'of the union in a defense fund, final official returns in a recent referendum vote show. Jack Gill, secretary-treasurer of the ITU, announced the final vote was 17,500 for the proposal and 30,474 against. By a vote of 17,223 to 30,442, the printers turned down Proposal No. which would have increased the sal aries of the vice-presidents. Proposal No. 3, which provided that the second vice-president should make his resi dence in Indianapolis, was disapprov ed by a vote of 22,172 for and 25, 531 against.
