The Klamath Basin district
council of the Lumber and Saw

gone on record favoring the set
tlement of all labor disputes by
arbitration for the duration of
the war, it was disclosed Friday.
A resolution passed at the
council's last meeting specified
"all disputes that cannot be set
tied by negotiations" between
the parties involved. It recom
mended that all affiliated local
unions be bound by tho decisions
of the arbitration tribunal pro
viding the operators will agree
to do the same.
"No new laws are necessary
to prevent strikes, ' tho resolu
tion read.
It was further resolved that:
"It is not necessary that organ
ized labor givs up any of the
rights guaranteed to it under the
bill of rights of the constitution
of the United States. Or a n y
other rights that it is Justly en
titled to. But it is the duty of
organized labor to see that these
rights are preserved, to tho end

anese naval command admitted
Thursday that flva of its "special
type" submarines failed to re
turn from the December 7 attack

submersibles, one of which was
captured by United States forces
in the attack on Hawaii while
another was destroyed. The
pocket submarines, electrically
powered, have a range of 200
miles.)
The Japanese also admitted the
loss of 20 planes in that attack

craft carrier which on December
8 had been reported sunk "now
Is believed to have escaped to a

The naval communique ac
knowledged no loss or (terns'"-
surface craft in the "historic en
gagement" with which the new
war in the Pacific was launched.
The Japanese said their "spe

trated deeply into Pearl harbor
and sank at least one battleship
of the Arizona class and In addi
tion inflicted heavy losses on
enemy ships."
In more recent action, three
"enemy" submarines have been
sunk in the Pacific while one

Utah class and another of an
unidentified class.
Two heavy cruisers and one
oil tanker also were listed as
sunk.
The Japanese high command
declared that seven United
States vessels had been damaged
beyond repair, listing them as
three battleships of California,
Maryland and Nevada classes
and two light cruisers and two
destroyers.
A total of 490 American planes
were machine-gunned and set
afire on the ground and 14
planes were shot down and many

Helping U. S. in Small Ways
Women's Immediate War Role
By RUTH MILLETT
The immediate Job facing us
women is clear. It's up to us
to help our country In every
small, unspectacular way we
can. The big Jobs, tho exciting
Jobs, the dangerous Jobs aren't
for us not yet anyway.
We must work at such tasks
as bucking the high cost of liv
ing, encouraging our men to
tuke on any tough assignment
that Is necessary whether it is
going into one of the country's
armed forces or working long,
hard hours at some necessary Job
and being practical rather than
sentimental in our attitudes to
ward the fight wo ore now in.
Of course, there's also knitting
for us, and bandage-rolling
and a hundred other small, but
necessary tasks that women con
squeeze into their days.
But as women, wo won't really
get Into this war to the extent
to which our men get in It, un
less it lasts so long that man
power has to bo strengthened by
woman power.
Men's whole lives will be de
voted to tho actual winning of
the war. Only part of our ef
forts will bo directed toward
that end.
With the rest of our time, let's
turn our thoughts toward tho
future. How are we going to
make sure that this world war
la the last, that the children play
ing around us will inherit a
world In which good sense and
decency make war a fantastic
rather than logical solution of
the disagreements between nations?
After the last war all we did
to insure peace was to talk about
It in our own little groups. A
talk on peace and then tea and
those delicious cookies that
matched the table decorations.
Well, you don't get peace by
tulklng about it at tea parties.
That is ono thing we've learned.
So let's spend whutcver timo is
ours now in educating ourselves
in tho matter of national and
world affairs.
And th. n let's throw off with
ono united shrug the old notion
that women who get into public
life arc sure to make fools of
themselves. Let's roll up our
sleeves and pitch in to help run
tho affairs that are bigger than
wo are and that change the
whole course of our lives.
We're educated and we're
smnrt. We'vo Just been lazy and
irresponsible in the past. But
we don't have to be in the fu
ture. WOMEN MUST TAKE
INTEREST IN PEACE
If wo take a responsible part
In the affairs of our country
while It is at war and our men
have less time than wo for clear
headed, unemotional thinking
We'll be in a' good, position to
havo a say when a world peace
is drawn up, and in all the years
after, when peace has to be main
tained. If we don't try to help solve
the problems of the world, we
deserve whatever we and our
children get. And it may not be
to our liking.
'Sneak Play' at Christmas
Leads to Better Grooming

NEA Service Staff Writer
Inducing masculine members
of the home to adopt new groom

lem but it's, not imsoluablc. It
Just takes tact and pcrsoverencc.
A good way to begin would be
to present each man In your fam
ily with a set of toilet prepara
tions nt Christmas. The stores
aro filled with emphatically for
mcn packages containing tho
things a man's bath needs very
virllo-f ragranccd after - shaving
lotion and tulc as well as soap.
This is a perfectly innocuous
beauty present, and no man will
think it sissy.
Men cannot tulk about "beau
ty." But I suspect they appreci
ate a refreshing odor more than
many would admit their good
shaving creams are certainly
tempting, freshly perfumed
Once the head of the house
not to mention your sons start
using after-shaving lotion and
tulc, you can mako a suggestion
or two about scalp tonic.
USE SUBTLE SUGGESTION
A wce!:ly shampc is one
thing, but wotting the hair every
time It's combed is quite another.
It dries hair and scalp, is likely
to contrlbuto to dandruff. So try
to got your husband to substitute
scalp tonic, massaging it in brisk

crease the prospect of his losing
his hair eventually, too. Put a
bottlo of tonic right Vicxt to the

ho'll use it.
If he doesn't, you can make
your little speech but care
fully about care of the hair.

As Unregistered
German Agent
WASHINGTON, Dec. 19 (AP)
Laura Ingalls, noted woman
filer, was arraigned Thursday on
a charge of failure to register as
a foreign agent In connection
with alleged activities on behalf
of the German government.

States commissioner, fixed Miss
Ingalls' bond at $7500 and post
poned the arraignment hearing
until December 26 after she
asked time to consult an attor
ney.
The flier said she had no
money and a government offi
cial said she would ,be taken to
the District ol Columbia jail.
Miss Ingalls told the commis
sioner that sita had been arrest
ed yesterday by federal bureau
of investigation agents and held
in a small room without sleep.
She said that they had declined
to answer her questions, or let
her speak to anyone and had
taken away her money.
The government's complaint
charged that since August 1 Miss
Ingalls had "acted, engaged to
act, aiyl agreed to act as an agent
and representative for, and re
ceived compensation from and
was under the direction of, the
government of the : German
relch" and therefore was requir
ed to register as a foreign agent
with the state department, .
