Beer was a required article
of diet on ships sailing from
Europe to the New World in
Colonial days. Old records de-
scribing Martin Frobisher’s ex-
plorations of North America
reveal that the sailors’ fare in-
cluded a substantial ration of
beer. The Mayflower carried
40 casks of ale, and histories of
the colonization of Georgia
show that each settler received
a ration of three pints of beer
a day on the voyage across the
Atlantic. The beer was not on-
ly a substitute for water, which
often went bad on the long voy-
ages, but it also provided diet-
ary elements otherwise lacking
in ship fare.
Mr. and Mrs. William Besser of
Tulsa, Okla., had 25 reasons for not
getting along together—18 were his
children and 7 were hers by a former
marriage. She took hers and went
to Shawnee to live; his remained with
him on the farm near Tuisa.
Among those to whom legend
has attributed the invention of
beer is Osiris, Egyptian god of
agriculture. Egyptologists be-
lieve that before becoming dei-
fied, Osiris was a kinglet in the
Nile delta. “He taught men
how to make out of barley a
fermented drink,” wrote one
chronicler. Today the brewing
industry provides a market for
more than one fourth of all the
barley raised in the United
States.”

makes postponement of the
campaign advisable now.
“The full co-operation of the
workers of America” Mr. Green
said, “is vital to the success of
our national defense program
and the American Federation
of Labor has a tradition to up-
hold of unfailing loyalty where
the welfare of our nation is at
stake.
“Though every effort is be-
ing made in emergency activ-
ities to maintain the levels of
life and work which have been
established by the wage earn-
ers of the United States, the
representatives of the Amer-
ican Federation of Labor were
among the first to pledge full
support to our nation when the
call was sounded. Support of
this position by every constit-
uent branch of the American
Federation of Labor is expect-
ed and, I am confident, will be
forthcoming.” ।
The interview followed an ad-
dress by President Green to the
convention here of the Amer-
ican Federation of Teachers.
Mr. Green called on the teach-
ers to “make clear to the nation
that you are an American in-
stitution.”
“The impression, rightfully
or wrongfully has gone abroad”
he told the convention, “that
your union has been controlled
in the past by those who have
been flirting, at least, with an
economic philosophy contrary

Organized labor is ready to
sacrifice immediate achieve-
ment of its 30-hour week goal
in the interest of national de-
fense, President William Green
of the American Federation of
Labor declared in an interview
here.
Mr. Green also pledged that
the Federation would do its ut-
most to avoid strikes wherever
possible, especially in the de-
fense industries.
He emphasized, however, that
the Federation would tolerate
no reduction in wages and
would insist on overtime pay
for all hours in excess of eight
each day. After the national
emergency is over, he declared,
the AFL will resume its 30-
hour week campaign, but the

creased industrial production

to the ideals of the United
States. ‘The membership of
the labor movement cannot flirt
with any ‘ism’ other than Am-
ericanism.”
Mr. Green said he was not
referring to the present lead-
ership of the union. He urged
that the Communist Party and
the German-American Bund be
outlawed and barred from the
ballot. He cited the fact that
Communists were not permitted
representation in central labor
bodies or in State Federations
of Labor.
Dr. George S. Counts, Presi-
dent of the American Federa-
tion of Teachers, backed up Mr.
Green’s position. He declared
democracy “must assert itself
as a positive and aggressive so-
cial faith, prepared to battle
with every form of totalitarian-
ism for the loyalties of men.”
The “crowning responsibil-
ity” of the teaching profession,
Dr. Counts said, “is to assist
and guide the young in fashion-
ing a great vision of the future
of our country—the vision of
guarding here in North Amer-
ica the human gains of the cen-
turies during a possible age of
darkness.”

Washington, D. C. (AFLWN
S).—Propaganda that the
Wage-Hour Act hampers na-
tional defense production was
shattered by Colonel Philip B.
Fleming, administrator of the
act. He revealed that out of
the thousands of employers en-
gaged in defense work, only
four have complained that they
were having trouble operating
under the law.
On investigation not a single
complaint was found to stand
up. One of the manufacturers
who protested—a maker of
tools, dies and jigs—grumbled
that there wasn’t enough skilled
labor in his community and
asked that he be given the right
to work his employes more than
the 42-hour limit fixed in the
law, without paying them over-
time rates.
Wage - Hour investigators
looked into his case. They
found that the town was full
of skilled mechanics available
for jobs, but that the manufac-
turer wanted them to work for
40 per cent less than the pre-
vailing scale.
“No wonder he found a
shortage,” said Fleming.
All evidence gathered so far,
he added, confirms the report
he made recently to President
Roosevelt that not the slightest
need exists to relax the Wage-
Hour law for the sake of na-
tional defense.
Those who claim the law
should be crippled were assail-
ed by Fleming as “enemies of
labor, posing as patriots.”
Every country of Europe that
tried lengthening of working
hours to'build up armaments
found that “after a certain
point production declines rath-
er than increases,” he pointed
out.
“The requirement for time
and one-half pay after 42 hours
will tend to keep the work-week
down to where it is most effi-
cient,” Fleming contended.
“And more important, it should
