President Roosevelt, declaring a
strike at the North American Avia
tion plant in Inglewood, Calif., was
impeding the defense program order
ed the Army to operate the plant
after workers rejected Mediation
Board terms for settlement. Two
days after taking over, the Army
reported "100 per cent efficiency"
with all employees returned to work.
The President said plants which
might be forced to place under Fed
eral control will be returned to pri
vate management as soon as poss
ible.
The House voted for an ammend-
ment to the 1942 Army appropria
tion bill to prohibit the payment of
funds to any individual or company
failing within 10 days to abide by
Mediation Board recommendations
for settlement of disputes. The Sen
ate approved a declaration that
strikes or lockouts in defense indus
tries are "contrary to sound public
policy."
The Mediation Board announced
settlement of three labor disputes,
including the dispute of the soft
coal industry. The U. S. Conciliation
Service announced settlement of 34
additional disputes.

The Senate approved a bill to de
fer men who reach their 28th birth
day by July 1 of this year, except

FOREIGN AFFAIRS
The State Department announced
sinking of the American freighter
Robin Moor in the south Atlantic by
a German submarine. Announcing
the rescue of only 11 of 46 persons
forced to abandon the ship, Under
Secretary Wells told the press that
international law requires precau
tions must be taken for the safety
of passengers and crew before a
ship is sunk.
SHIPS
The OPM granted full priority for
materials necessary in the building
of 289 merchant ships for U. S. and
Great Britain and the 312 special
lease-lend vessels.
OPM Production Director Btggers,
speaking at uebec, said "almost
every ship now being built in our
rapidly expanding yards is ahead of
schedule.” The Maritime Commis
sion directed the Southern Pacific
Company to deliver for national de
fense purposes its entire fleet of 10
vessels 166,600 tons), formerly used
in coastwise trade.
LEASE-LEND AID
President Roosevelt reported to
Congress that $75,202,425 of war ma
terials have been transferred to the
democracies since the enactment of
the lease-lend law and $4.277.412.879
has been allocated for further aid
out of the $7,000,000,000 provided by
Congress, He said that work has
started on agreements with foreign
governments on the terms and con
ditions of the aid they receive.
CIVILIAN DEFENSE
Civilian Defense Director La-
Guardia stated orginization of med
ical groups, auxiliary police and fire
units, sanitation, and first aid squads
are the necessary basis for adequate
home defense. He said panic Is to be
avoided under all circumstances and
it will be necessary to educate the
public to the absolute necessity of
obeying Instructions.
Mr. LaGuardia said firemen and
Policemen from 40 Eastern cities will
be trained in combating poison gas
and incendiary and high explosive
bombs in 17, two-week courses at
Edgewood Arsenal. Md., under the
direction of the Army Chemical
Warfare Service. Trainees will re
turn home and instruct fellow
townsmen.
OPM announced it will soon begin
a nation-wide campaign to collect
scrap aluminum from civilians. A
test drive in Richmond. Va, and at
Madison, Wise., it was said, produced
enough of the metal to build 16 pur
suit planes or two and one-half
bombers.
OIL
Defense Petrolelum Coordinator
Ickes told a press conference that
curbs on petralieum consumption
along the Atlantic coast appear in
evitable but the degree of restriction
would depend on public cooperation
in conserving oil and gasoline. He
said the American Automobile Asso
ciation has pledged a campaign to
cut down consumption of gasoline
by motorists by slower driving, eli
mination of hasty "getaways” in
traffic, and proper engine adjust
ments. He said Bureau of Standards
tests showed a car which gets 18
miles to the gallon at 30 m. p. h.
will get only 8.6 miles to the gallon
at 80.
POWER
The Federal Power Commission
reported "many areas of the country
are now . . . facing power shortages
. . . unless orders are placed immed
iately for large amounts of addition
al capacity for 1943, serious short
ages will develop . . . ”
OPM Director General Knudsen
announced OPM has formally ap
proved the St. Laurence Waterway
and Power Project "as part of the
all-out defense effort.” The Presi
dent allotted $200,000 for construc
tion of a cooperative transmission
system to carry power from the Pen
sacola Dam to 15 REA cooperatives
In Kansas. Arkansas. Missouri, and
Oklahoma to provide for develop
ment of zinc deposits for defense.
COAL
The Office of the Bituminous Coal
Consumers' Council announced a
campaign—endorsed by defense con
sumer. price and transportation of
ficials—to promote buying and stor
ing of next winter's coal this sum
mer to lighten the load that move
ment of crops and defense materials
will place upoin the transport sys
tem beginning next fall. The Office
warnedconsumers against "panicky”
buying at high prices and said the
supply of bituminous coal is ample
for all needs.
PRICES
Administrator Henderson, of the
Office of Price Administration and
Civilian Supply, arranged with the
industries concerned to prevent un
justified price increases in coffee,
plywood, paper board, crude oil. gas
oline and automobiles. Mr. Hender
son told certain auto firms to with
draw recently announced price rises
because they “are inconsistent with
the favorable earning position of
the industry.”
PRIORITIES
OPM placed borax and boric acid,
aluminum scrap, zinc, copper, and
synthetic rubber under full priority
control. OPACS announced pro
grams to allocate sufficient quanti
ties of these materials for essential
civilian needs.
Vice President Wallace, speaking
in Washington, said the democratic
way is for each citizen to put off
non-essential purchases until after
the emergency so that more raw
material will be available for de
fense.
DEFENSE HOUSING
Defense Housing Coordinator
Palmer announced there have been
completed 14.293 defense dwelling
units in 55 localities of 26 States and
territories. Speaking to the Confer
ence for National Housing Inven
tory. Mr. Palmer said it may be nec
essary to ask Congress for an ad
ditional $500,000,000 to construct
125.000 homes in defense areas in
addition to the 97.000 already con
tracted for.
