iMillctt when three boys about
10 years old returned his missing

Your experience is something

thing Southern Pacific needs.
To be able to ronair or rphnllrl
railroad equipment is today a
skill of greater importance than
ever. Because S. P. must keep
the war trains rolling ... the
railroad must bring the jeeps
and tanks and guns and troops
to the West Coast ports ot em
barkation. At S. P, there is a
find opening for you ... a vital
job, a good-paying job. You'll
bo working with folks you'll
like , . .and with first-class
equipment. Railroad pass prlvi
leges. Medical services. A fine
pension plan. Join the Southern
Pacific family ... get back
into railroading whore your
skill and experience are really
appreciated. You are urgently
needed. Liberal ago limits.

MOSCOW, Jan. 8 (iP) An edi
torial in Pravda, citing the man
ner in which American news
papers commented on the Pope s
Christmas message, asserted yes
t c r d a y that "the reactionary
American press" serves as
friends and protectors of Hitler
ites." .
The pope's message was
aimed to distract the minds of
believers from the vital question
of war and peace." said the com
munist party newspaper. "The
New York World-Telegram of
fered an article about 'the claims
of the Pope for a fair peace' and
the 'guarantee of equal rights to
defeated nations and vanquishers-'
"The Washington Evening
Star attempted to prove 'no per
manent distinction- should be
made between conquerors and
conquered.' These newspapers,
as well as the New York Sun,
swore that Pope Pius XII is a
determined protector of de
mocracy. "It democracy means support
of a fascist regime (which is
mentioned with indignation by
many American and British
newspapers) tnc fope is a demo
crat."
(Lee W ood, executive editor
of the World-Telegram, com
mented: "Pravda's outbursts,
which are becoming more com
mon and irresponsible of late, do
not merit any comment; to take
notice of them would only dig
nify this irresponsible thinking."
(Keats Speed, executive editor
of the New York Sun, declared:
"I think the best answer to
Pravda's article is the one Brig.-
Gen. McAuliffe made.
(Brie.-Gen. Anthony C. McAu
liffe had reDlied "Nuts!" to a
German demand that his be
sieged troops in the Bastogne
area surrender.)

UNI LAW ILLEGAL
WASHINGTON, Jan. 8 (JP)
Texas legislation requiring paid
lahnr union organizers to reE-
! ister with the secretary of state
before soliciting for members
was today declared unconstitu
tional by the supreme court.
Justice Rutledge delivered the
court's 5-4 opinion. Justice Rob
erts wrote a dissenting opinion
in which Chief Justice Stone
and Justices Reed and Frank
furter concurred.
R. J. Thomas, Detroit, a CIO
vice president and president of
the United Automobile Work
ers, challenged the validity of
the statute.
He appealed after being ad
judged in contempt of court for
violating a Texas court's order
which enjoined him from sol
iciting for union members with
out registering with the secre
tary of state and obtaining an
organizer's card. The state court
sentenced him to three days'
imprisonment and fined him
?100.
