AT I 0 N Heroic Stalingrad! Stalingrad, Oh, Stalingrad! Fighting the great est battle of all time. When history records the hap penings of the Global war, Stalingrad will rank in the annals of the human race above Balaklava, Get- tysburg and Verdun for heroism in defense of hum an rights. With its magnificant buildings of brick, concrete and stone crumbling under the bombing fire of the greatest war machine of the ages, its peo ple (men, women and children) still fight in defense of home and homeland. The world will little note or long remember what we did by lend lease in arms, ammunition, tanks and planes; but it will never forget what they did there. The brave men and women, living and dead, have consecrated our common cause far above our poor powers to add or detract. It is, therefore, for us to become more strongly dedicated to the unfinished work which they have so nobly advanced. —00— When Winter Comes The housing situation, always acute here, is be coming much more acute as winter approaches. Lo cal capital has met the situation with all its means as shown by a survey printed on the front page of this issue of the Herald. We have heard of 1000 government houses; we have heard again of 200 houses, and Madam Ru mor circulated a few days ago that a contract man had a contract for 1000 basements. But so far, af ter several months, not one house has been built to house permanently or take care of the several thou sand workers now here. The work of defense in this area is being hampered. Scores of house hunt ers appear and leave. Not an empty house can be found within 30 miles and under the present tire set- up these workers cannot commute. This community is willing to go beyond its finan cial limitations but, even if more liberal priorities are granted, it cannot supply the demand. We have pace, water facilities, sewerage will soon be com- pleted. and with some concessions in wiring and ( lectrical supplies the government housing authori- ties could soon set up suitable living quarters for the hundreds who would stay here and work. They al so could provide better sanitary and healthy condi tions for women and children who, under modern day labor conditions, seem persistent in accompany ing the head of the family to public works projects. Husbands want their families and wives and child- ren want Daddy besides it is the great American policy to preserve and protect the family unit. al: Jo.
