NOT HELPING A BIT N a national broadcast last night Rep. J. W. Ditter, Penn- | svivania Republican, said: “Since the emergency defense program was launched | bv the President, American industry has been sabotaged ! by the most extensive and all-embracing wave of labor dis- | putes and strikes in its entire history.” | The statement just isn't true. Dr. Ditter said many things, some of which are true. But that one reckless exaggeration was enough, in our opinion, to discredit his whole gpeech in the minds of thoughtful listeners, and to nullify | anv contribution he might have made toward solving the country’s industrial problems. |

In a national broadcast night before last Senator Abe Murdock, Utah Democrat, said: : moueh the “Ofticial Government figures reveal that the pronts of big industrial corporations are now soaring to fantastic heights . . . it is healthy human nature that American workers should desire to participate in these fantastic profits. At the same time the cost of living 1s rapidly rising | _. . American workers must receive higher wages to meet | increasing living costs.” | Senator Murdock, we think, fell into the same error as
this in Turkey was Mustafa
Rep. Ditter.
The cost of living is not rapidly rising—not | tent

protested by the Nazi Government, Who helped Hitler then and where stood this Administration? With the first issue of this column, March 15. 1833, and continuously ever since, it has fairly shrieked of the menace of Hitlerism, of the ease and stark and overwhelming necessity of British and French interference, of our own utter defenselessness and of our immediate need for instant and wholesale modern rearmament regardless of cost. Nothing was done.
