“We Are Americans First and Trade Unionists Second” _____ WILLIAM GREEN, PRES. A. F. OF L. [ FOURTH OF JULY, 1943 DON'T FORGET THE UNION LABEL, SHOP CARD AND SERVICE BUTTON THAT OLD FOURTH-OF-JULY SPIRIT! I. M. ORNBURN, Secretary-Treasurer Union Label Trades Department American Federation of Labor When Americans are aroused, that old-fashioned Fourth-of-July spiirt always flares up. It is a combination of courage, genius, and energy. It is this undying spirit in man that caused our forefathers, in 1776, to create a new form of government by the people in the Western Hemisphere. It is the same courageous determination to win that now inspires our brave fighters on land, in the air, and on the sea to carry freedom to all peoples in the world. Our recent victories on many battlefields are just a sample of what is to come. They are a tribute to our fighting men, who have no superiors, and to the loyal men and women throughout our nation who are whole heartedly backing them up. It is this American courage that will prevent the Axis dictators from overrunning the earth and enslaving men and women everywhere. It is the same stimulative spirit of the Fourth of July that gives the courage to our inventive genius to make better types of guns, planes, ships and tanks that will finally overcome our treacherous foe. This undaunted spirit combines the brain and energy of American workers to produce the critical materials necessary in fighting a modern war. They are making essential munitions in such unprecedented volume of pro duction that our armed forces can completely annihilate the Axis powers. All Americans are ready and willing to make any sacrifices necessary for victory. A peaceful people have been transformed into a fighting force millions strong, backed on the home front by men and women in field and factory, in science and invention, who insure the final disposal of Nazi and Fascist tyranny. By their glorious achievements in a great coordinated super-effort Americans and their allies of the other United Nations will speed the day of ultimate victory, in order that not one single life may be sacrificed uselessly, nor one body maimed in vain. Through the united effort of all these human forces plus material resources the Axis enemies of freedom will receive a blow that will wipe1 them off the face of the earth forever. In the words of the Star Spangled Banner: “THEN CONQUER WE MUST. FOR OUR CAUSE IT IS JUST AND THIS BE OUR MOTTO: IN GOD IS OUR TRUST.” clniou Foremost Pasteurized Farm FRESH MILK FOREMOST DAIRIES, IMG.

TRTON ST Combining the war budgets of all the nations now at war, it cost about one million dollars to kill a man. War Production Goals Are Higer For Next Year —V— DETROIT—Rumors that we have reached a breathing spell in our war production program — that workers ought to start thinking about peace time jobs and business men about peace time production—were spiked in a speech here before the Economic Club by Charles E. Wilson, executive vice chairman of the War Production Board, as having the “familiar ring” of enemy propaganda. Listing “some plain hard facts,” Wilson declared: “Our production was good in the first quarter of 1943. This spring our total production of muni tions was more than double the pro duction for the spring of 1942. But in that quarter we completed only 19 per cent of the scheduled munitions output for this year. Over four-fifths of the 1943 munitions job has to be scheduled for the last three quarters of this year. But our schedule for next winter calls for 50 per cent more munitions per month than we are producing now. Does that sound like tapering off?
