WALLAGE CE CALLS FOR INDUSTRIAL PEAGE

NEW YORK, May 1 (U.P.) —Vice | President Henry A. Wallace asserted last night that the American people have a right to demand that labor and management settle their dife ferences “with promptness and good will.’ “There is as great patriotism in working overtime to settle a defense contract or strike as mn working overtime to rivet the wmg of a fighting plane,” he told the New York Young Democratic Club. Describing modern war as | the nightmare of a deadly disease,’ Mr. Wallace went on to say that | “much as we hate the choice, the | | issue of slavery or war may be forced upon us as it has been forced |on others.” “When we win the war,” he said, “as I am confident we can by pro-| ducing to the Ihmit, we shall be! confronted with the problem of the! peace. Twenty-five years ago we won the war and lost the peace, | because we were not ready to do| {our part in fighting against human | | suffering and poverty.” | He urged vastly increased pro- | {duction effort to “make such a! record as will convince the Nazi |
