Undoubtedly if war comes, there wvill be many questions bearing upon labor's participation. For instane, the question of hours. It certainly is true that the United States could not proseeute a war on an eight-hour day basis, but it would probably have to have a 24-hour day of three shifts. Kindred problems would arise. For example there would be the problem of war time private construction. The gove/nment would probably find that it wuld have to forbid the building of nonwar building projects.

The Glory of Common Men

· · O· ·

So long as the English tongue survives, the word Dunkerque will be spoken with reverence. For in that harbor, in such a hell as never blazed on earth before, at the end of a lost battle, the rags and blemishes that have hidden the soul of democracy fell away. There, beaten but unconquered, in shining splendor, she faced the enemy.

They sent away the wounded first. Men died so that others could escape. It was not so simple a thing as courage, which the Nazis had in plenty. It was not so simple a thing as discipline, which can be hammered into men by a drill sergeant. It was not the result of careful planning, for there could have been little. It was the common man of the free countries, rising in all his glory out of mill, office, factory, mine, farm and ship, applying to war the lessons learned when he went down the shaft to bring out trapped comrades, when he hurled the lifeboat throughj the surf, when he endured poverty and hard work for his children's sake.

This shining thing in the souls of free men Hitler cannot command, or attain, or conquer. He has crushed it, where he could from German hearts.

It is the great tradition of democracy. It is the future. It is victory.
