Each day brings new promises of all the things we are go ing to do for our returning veterans. How many recall the same kind of promises were made the veterans o f the 'First World War? History is but repeating ifeielf today and many there are of the returning soldiers today that will not realize one tenth of the promises made. Those who left factory jobs, open shop then, return today to find that the CIO is doing the hiring and the bring. If there is a disability, however slight, the veteran will have a hard time establishing himself where union labor is entrenched. The New Deal-has a lot of promises as long as the moral law, but few will be able to benefit by the pledge due to some trick wording in the fine print. 'We heard of a veteran a few days ago that made application under the New Deal. He was informed that he could not qualify. Any bank would’ have so informed him. If he could meet government requirements for a loan he could get it from a bank. The New Deal promise was absolutely misleading in this case and to others in like po­ sition. It might be well for some organization to so,advise our returning men that all that “ glitters is not gold.” The Orange Daily News, Hon. Justin Cramer, publisher, hands out some sound advice editoriallyon this subject and we think it worthy of reprint. “ The'prospects of returning veterans for re-employment have been the subject of a good deal of conversation. We Americans are a queer people,, indeed. When these boys were called from our mijflSEHo defend the honor and integrity of our county on foreign soil, we made all kinds of promises. We swore by the eternal that when they returned they should, as a matter of course, have their old jobs back, if they wanted them. ' “Well, these men are coming back today by the thousands What is being done to*provide them with jobs? Most employ­ ers, with a high sense of gratitude and. duty, are placing veter­ ans in their old positions, fitsome^nstances unfortunately, the service men are getting^hothifig more substantial than promises. ' . . . “ A case in point recently brought to our attention is that of a'returning California veteran, who also’ served in World War I. He was told that he might have his old job back—but in the company’s plant in an Eastern city. Since this veteran has been a resident of California for seventeen years with a home and his family in this state, he might as well have been told he could have his job back in Timbuctoo. “ In industry, let us have a look at the automobile, business in its attitude toward this problem. Over 200,000 veterans are classified as coming from that industry alone. The automotive companies accept the interpretation of Major General Hershey, that the Selective Service Act morally guarantees old jobs back to the veterans. ' “ This industry was hopeful of j offering veterans many more than 200,000 jobs they perviously.held but the AFL and CIO challenge that suggestion. They . insist that priority be given to employees now on the job. This means that the 1,400,- 000 persons working for the industry during the war—many as war workers—will have legal claims to the 1,100,000 jobs ex­ pected to be available. Only' veterans who worked in the in dustry before the war will have much of a chance for the jobs. That doesn’t strike us as being exactly an honorable way of discharging our obligations to the young men who risked their lives so that this nation might endure. “ The Automotive Workers (C. I. O.) realizing that about 80 percent of all veterans will have no legal claim to these jobs after the war, presented its challenge to the War Production Board. The answer was a 10-page confidential memo declar­ ing that the plan.of the industry to hire veterans “might tend to increase labor turnover, .undermine the seniority system and otherwise disturb labor relations.” “ Obviously, management is not responsible for this situa­ tion. In fact one of the largest of theise companies has propos­ ed that veterans, not previously employed in an automotive plant, may be hired regardless of the seniority of other em­ ployees hired after May 1, 1940, the- effective date of the re- employment rights provided by the Selective Service Law. “ As a direct result of WPB policy we find that for the week ending April 28 nearly 29,000 veterans who were able to work, and who had applied for jobs, were receiving unemploy­ ment doles under the' G. I* Bill of Rights. Since. Y_E day that number has no doubt increased very materially. •“ The nation owes an immeasurable debt of gratitude to its service men and women. This cannot be repaid by idle plati­ tudes and the dodging of responsibility. If Congress meant what it said in passing the Selective Service Act i t *■ should .set itself to the task of seeing that the letter and spirit of the Act are carried out. If this is not done, there remains but one ave­ nue open1 to returning service men, and that lies in organization of a strong militant force that will aggressively demand its in- inalienable right—The Righat To Work.” Gov. Lausche gets about the worst political breaks of any governor o f the state in recent years. The Good­ year strike o f rubber employes, Ak­ ron has been on for .more than three weeks. The New Deal is handling the situation with gloves for 15,000 employees aye a lot o f votes. Gov. Lausche stuck in as the boys say and probably had good intentions for a labor dispute is not a state matter. He ordered, the draft boards in Sum­ mit county to reclassify all strikers of draft age and send them* to the army. This angered the draft boards that have to live in the city and the boards refused to take such action. This created trouble in the ranks o f of the union at the Firestone plant and 17,000 more men joined in the strike to support the Goodyear em­ ployees. Other rubber workers in the city quit their jobs, most all of them making tires for airplanes, trucks and automobiles. Each day the strike is on some 240,000 tires are not being made. The strike is a New Deal weapon against industry, war or peaee time. The Governor will learn some of these days to keep his fin­ gers out of other people’s trouble. anykind. From another letter we found two reference! about food when this one time farm boy said; " a dried pellet called hash dropped into a tin o f water drugged with chlorine is called White House hash and dehy­ drate foods', Roosevelt hay.’ We are told by press dispatches that Congress is going to investigate the loans o f EUiott^Roosevelt, with Pres­ idential approval o f his father, So far the New Dealers controlling the Committee have done nothing. The .Hartford loan^of $200,000 on almost worthless broadcasting stock, had a meaning all its own. Now, another cush loan turns up but for only $50,- 000. This loan was from Maxwell Bilfolsky, Newark, N. J., industrialist, He settled with Elliott for a reported $28,800. Mr, Bilofsky says he is a Republican (probably looking -for an insider to land government con­ tracts.) We only mention this fearing ome o f New Deal readers might not bo able to find such news in the Dem­ ocratic press. A traveling salesman stopped here Tuesday evening enroute to Cincinna­ ti. He had spent a day and night in Akron. He did not have a full meal any of the time he was in that city. vVith thousands of strikers walking the streets and many with families Having more money than red tokens, are eating down town. For that rea­ son the hotels and restaurants are un­ able to feed . the traveling public. He made the statement that he had to go to a grocery and make small pur­ chases to get something to eat in' his hotel room. He says everywhere he went the general public was open­ ly damning the OPA and the New Deal for starving Americans and yet shipping food all over the world. Aiong the food line Robert R. Wil­ liams, executive 'vice president of the Ohio State Restaurant Association, issued a statement this week predict­ ing 20 percent of the restaurants in Ohio will . be forced to dose within ‘two or three weeks” . Since the OPA reduced the sugar and meat rations the only .places th a t' cun keep open are those who purchase from ’ the olackmarket if there is meat or fowl on the table or counter many days in the month. Ninety percent of the chicken on the average restaurant or hotel menu today is from the “ black market”. A New York paper last week told of Elliott having been in the city .. ..-.a little time. The public generally t.u., had the belief Elliott was an of­ ficer in the U. S. Army. If your son has not been home fo r a number of months just remember somebody has to remain on the job at the front even though the Roosevelt favorite son was doing the big city with hia actress wife (No, 8). Congress can take up the income tax returns o f the entire Roosevelt family and 'give it to the public without censorship just as if Elliott was president o f the U. S, Steel Corporation. Eliott evidently has a new way o f securing finance and some of the rest o f us would like to get in on the “ know how” . FOR SALE—CHEAP—MY POW­ ER LAWN MOWER.

Taylor Street, Dayton, 2, Ohio, Must comply with WMC regulations, We have been checking numerous city papers to , see. what restaurants and bakeries are being forced to .close under OPA. It is alarming what we have discovered. A Springfield paper gives .a list o f bakeries tha t' will be closed from one to two weeks each month due to the sugar and lard shortening. Mjany restaurants in Cincinnati are closing two days each week instead of only one. Scores of small restaurants have already gone out o f business and there is much second equipment going on the mar­ ket where a year ago there was a real shortage. Wte learn of one wholesale grocery concern that could not make delivery trips out of town this week due to the “ enormous shortage of items” on each order. Canned goods are said to be practically exhausted. A Columbus grocer stopped in town one day last week and walked into one b f oUr leading groceries. He .took one glance at the shelves and re­ marked, “ You have more goods on your shelves than I can find on my own and my two neighboring competi- tidrs and how do you do it ? " This same grocery had closed down his meat department because he could not get enough meat to sell at a profit to operate his refrigerating plant. Kenneth W.
