LAST CALL TO PATRIOTS! ☆ 'jftr ☆ Nsvn before in their hictory have the American people shown their patriotism as they did in the 7 great War Loan Drives. Now the war is over.

We are get ting Our men into ships and trains and bringing them ham and that costs money.

IS THIS MAN WORTH RECONVERTING? JLoday he is still a soldier. Yesterday he was a kid in school. What will he be to morrow? That depends on us, the folks back home. He fought "over there" and that is where he kept the fighting, right up to Victory Day. He has done his job. Now he deserves a chance to finish his education. Our Victory Bonds will help him. The Government is willing to bet on him, when he goes into business, and lend him some money. Our Victory Bonds will help finance the loan. He dug a foxhole in the dirt and lived in it. Now it is our turn to dig down, and show him by our Victory Bond purchases that we want him to have a chance to reconvert for peace. A Victory Bond is the I world’s smartest invest ment.

Morgan Street Phone 740-J SHELBY, NORTH CAROLINA Dewey Pleads For Rule Of Reason ITHACA, N. Y.—Governor Dew ey called on Labor and manage ment to substitute a rule of rea ■on in employe-management con troversies for the old rule of tooth and claw, and demanded that both ■ides recognize in all disputes that the interest «f the public was par amount. He did not suggest legis lation or machinery to solve the labor-industry difficulties. Speaking at a convocation called to dedicate and formally open the New York School of Industrial and Labor Relations at Cornell univer sity, which is supported by State funds, Mr. Dewey urged recogni tion of the fundamental proposi tion that “no one piece of our economy can be happy or prosper ous if it attempts tA profit at the expense of the rest.’* In his address, Governor Dewey declared that one of the best fea tures of the new school was that no one in labor, management or government regarded it as a cure all even though it was a trail biasing effort. Explaining the purposes and as pirations of the school, Governor Dewey said: “Recurrent outbreaks of strikes underline the fact that labor re lations are never static and that no formula can be devised within the democratic framework which will wholly wipe out disputes. Nor does anyone who values our way of life wish to end the continuing effort by both labor and manage ment to advance their own inter ests. * But the old rule of the tooth and daw' is out of date and should come to an end. “We are growing up. We must now attain the age of reason. One of the things of which I have been proudest during my three years in Albany is our splendid record in the relationship between Capital and Labor tai the State of Nevr York. COURT UPHOLDS RYAN AGAINST CIO RAIDERS New York City.—Joseph P. Ry an, president of the International Longshoremen's Association, won the second and presumably final tound of a court action brought by “insurgent” longshoremen to force a formal hearing on internal union affairs before liny new dock contract is Signed with the New York Shipping Association. In a unanimous decision the Ap pellate Division of the Supreme Court reversed an injunction is sued October 26 by Judge Carroll G. Walter which ordered Mr. Ryan not to sign a contract until a hear ing was held. The Appellate Court ruled that John Berg, cochairman of the “insurgent” group in whose name the action was filed, had “failed to establish any right to the relief granted." Louis Waldman, attorney for Mr. Ryan, said the decision had cleared the way “for arbitration without any strings,” while Mr. Ryan said it would “hearten every longshoreman and member of the ILA.” Mr. Ryan charged that the insurgents were the “fifth column for the pro-Communists in the CIO who are trying to create trouble on our waterfront.” AFL ALUMINUM WORKERS GET HALF MILLION RAISE Louisville, Ky., Local Union No. 19388, Aluminum Workers of America has completed negotia tions for a new contract, raising the minimum, or starting pay from 6G cents an hour to 81 cents min imum.

Rosen blatt, President of the Palestine Foundation Fund on his return fiom a six week tour of Palestine.
