JAP NAVY UNITS: Bombers Also Smash Kiska
Installations Six Times On Monday.
WASHINGTON, June 29 (U. P.). ~The navy today reported a bombing atfack on a small concentration of light Japanese naval units in the central Solomons and continued aerial blows agaist Kiska in the Aleutians. The navy’s war bulletin did not specify the types of vessels in the enemy force, but a naval spokesman said it probably included a destroyer, some patrol craft and perhaps motor torpedo boats. American airmen attacked the concentration at night and results could not be observed. Meanwhile, American fliers smashed at the enemy’s positions in the Kiska area eight more times. Six of the raids were made on Sun- 5 day and hits were scored on the ; main camp area. Kiska Raided

Older Workers Aid Production
BOSTON, June 29 (U. P.).—Dr. Ross A. McFarland, Harvard psychologist, said today that prejudices against older workers in industry were not well founded and that industry had reported great returns from. the labor of older men and women. Writing in the Harvard business review, Dr. McFarland said that industry has been forced by the war to use an increasing number of older workers, but that it “has turned out to be:a bargain.” He added that older workers’ contribution to production, both in quality and quantity, was far
greater than usually believed.

IN COAL STRIKES
Observers Say Department Proceeds Cautiously
Under New Law.
WASHINGTON, June 29 (U. P.). «Federal agents were believed today to be investigating the continuing coal strikes and other walkouts which have occurred since the federal anti-strike law was enacted. A justice department official said investigations would be started whenever strikes occur. It could not be determined definitely that inquiries were under way in connection with the coal strikes and stoppages at a Detroit Chrysler plant which was quickly ended and the Best Foods Corp., Bayonne, N. J, plant, but justice department policy forbids discussion of investigations that are under way.
No Criminal Penalty
Officials of the department apparently still were uncertain how they will proceed in enforcing the new law. : The brief Chrysler strike and Best Foods stoppage apparently violated the act, but there are no criminal penalties for such violations. The law requires union representatives to give notice of a labor dispute. Employees must continue working for 30 days pending a strike ballot under supervision of the national labor relations board. Hence a strike can begin only after a favorable vote taken 30 days after notice has been given. In an illegal walkout, the strikers or strike leaders would be liable only for civil damages.
Mine Boss Named
The coal stoppages would fall within another provision of the act, forbidding strikes in plants or mines seized by the government. That provision sets a maximum penalty of $5000 fine and one year’s imprisonment for inducing, encouraging or conspiring with any person to interrupt production in a seized plant. Meanwhile, Coal Administrator Harold L. Ickes announced the appointment of Carl E. Newton, Cleveland, president of the Chesapeake & Ohio railroad, to supervise government operation of the mines. Ickes told a house committee earlier that lack of a sound solution of the coal dispute probably would compel him to take a stronger grip on the mines for an indefinite period.
GUARD ASSIGNED T0 VICTORY SHOW
A formal guard mount with 100 soldiers participating has been added to the program of the July 4 fireworks show at Victory field Sunday night. The soldiers will demonstrate the precision method of changing the guard. It will be executed in cadence to music furnished by the military band of Stout field. The 11th district of the American Legion, which is sponsoring the program for the benefit of Army
Emergency Relief, plans to increase
the program. Gates will open at 6:30 p. m. The show will start at 8:30 p. m. Box, seats will go on sale Thursday at downtown drug stores. They will be reserved at $1, tax included. Fifty-five cent general admission tickets will not be sold in advance. Children under 12 years of age and service men in uniform will be admitted for 35 cents.

brought new skills and new hungers. Now that they want the modern world, and have begun to learn how to handle its tools, it is going to be very hard to stop them. Even more impressive thar the industrial and economic reconstruction of Turkey, going on in the middle of the war, is the social and educational revolution which has taken place. n o n
Western Dress
IN TURKEY every official proudly and exclusively wears western dress. The fez has been legally abolished as one of the symbols of the change. The few veiled women one encounters already seem an anachronism. Under the leadership of Ataturk and the determined, capable men who succeeded him, the Turks have literally and figuratively abolished the veils of the ancient east. They have stripped them from the faces of their people ‘and the light that has replaced them is there, one feels, to stay.
And this revolution in age-old | | lar nowhere in the world. Even |
custom was brought about with-
hysteria. It was achieved without attacking any other country. ” ” ”
Talked to Leaders
BESIDES SEEING Turkey's soldiers, I talked at very considerable length to the leaders of the country’s government, the men who were watching Europe with the fearful anxiety of men who did not know when, or even if, they were going to be plunged into a war to save their country. That is a terrible anxiety to live under. But not a single man in Turkey gave me the slightest hint that there would be anything other than bitter, determined, savage resistance to any threat which jeopardized their peace and safety. ” 2 ”
Prepared to Trade
THE TURKS would like to deal with us. They are prepared to trade goods. They produce, in
14 GROUPS APPEAL FOR RIOT ACTION
out badges or uniforms or mass |
WASHINGTON, June 29 (U. P.). —Fourteen national organizations have appealed jointly to President Roosevelt for three-fold action to guard against a recurrence of recent race riots. Among the indorsers of the proposal are the Congress of Industrial Organizations, the United Automobile Workers of America, the National Lawyers guild and the National Association for Advancement of Colored People. The president was urged to take three steps: 1. Explain by radio the underlying causes of the riots and emphasize the government's policy against racial discrimination. 2. Direct the justice department to summon federal grand juries in
riot areas to fix responsibility for the riots. 3. Sponsor legislation outlawing violence by civilians against the armed forces or minority groups in war work.
JAP AKYAB BASE BOMBED
NEW DELHI, June 29 (U. P.).— British Wellington ‘bombers droppad a “good weight” of bombs on Akyab, naval and air base, where a considerable number of Japanese troops
are stationed, in daylight raids yes-
Turkey, nearly one quarter of the world’s supply of chrome. Their tobacco and their cotton are badly needed by other countries. The Turks are our friends. They both like and admire us. They do not fear us, nor do they envy us. Their neutrality, however, is honestly administered. They refused, for example, to allow me to come to their country in the United States army plane which took me around the world, and I had
to change at Cairo into a Pan- | | wretched
American Airways plane. - But underneath this neutral correctness, there was a cordiality no one could mistake. When the axis radio during my visit complained of my presence in Turkey, I told the newspapermen that the answer was simple; “Invite Hitler to send to Turkey, as a representative of Germany: his opposiion candidate. The remark, I found afterward, caused much quiet amusement among the Turkish government officials. In the last war, Turkey was on the German side. The Ottoman empire, out of the ruins of which this new republic grew, was popu-
the word “Turk” was an evil word. 5 "
Phenomenal THE CHANGE has been so
quick that many of us have missed |
it. For something less than two decades the phenomenal struggle of Ataturk and his friends, has channeled the energies and ambitions ot their people into new
ways of living. Like the Arabs of the Middle East, like the peoples who live around the borders of China or on the islands of the southwest Pacific, like the Indians, they had no experience with self-govern-ment until a generation ago. . They had almost no education, standards of public health and sanitation, and a long history of exploitation and poverty and misery. : In a few brief years they have completely transformed their habits of life, their ancient customs and their ways of thinking.
