president’s
fact-finding
board set up to adjust a wage dis
pute in the railroad industry rec
ommended that approximately 350,-
000 members of the "big five” oper
ating brotherhoods receive an in
crease of ?44 per cent. The bro
therhoods had asked for a 30 per
cent increase for these men. For
800,000 other employes the board
recommended an Increase averaging
1344 per cent. The increases were
termed by the board as temporary
pending a re-examination of eco

roads accepted the proposals. The
unions rejected them.

Th? pre ident, speaking by radio,
said "The choice we have to make
is this: Shall we make our full sac
rifices now, produce to the limit,
and deliver our products today and
every day to the battlefronts of the
entire world? Or shall we remain
satisfied with our present rate of
armament output, postponing the
day of real sacrifice — as did the
French — until it is toe late?
"T h e first," the president said, “ is
the choice of realism
realism in
terms of three shifts a d: y: the full
est use of every vital mz hine every
minute of every day and every
night; . . . staying on <he job and
getting things made, ar. 1 entrusting

ive bar
gaining . . . The second choice is
the approach of the blin:’ . . . for
them there is still ‘plenty of time’ . .
And their tombstones would bear
the legend ‘Too late’ . . . ”
In a statement issued regarding
civilian defense week November 11-
16, the president said "Each „And
every citizen as a civilian must jdo
his share for defense . . We must
halt the waste and unnecessary use
of critical materials required for de
fense. W e must werk longer hours
. . . And each of us must be trained
in some task that is essential to our
total defense . . . ”
LEND-LEASE AID
T h » president arranged a $1.000,-
000/' 0 loan to Russia under the
lend- lease act. The loan carries no
interest. Repayment — partly in
materials — will s f '- t five years af
ter the war ends and <s to be com
pleted in 10 years from that time
Observing the 24th anniv-'-ary of
the soviet revoluticn. the p— tdent
telf graphed the soviet gcvrnr’ ent,
“ I am confident that the sacrii
and sufferings of those who hav
the c-urage to struggle against ag
gression will not have been in vain.”
The navy authorized construction
of 50 escort vessels for transfer tc
Great Britain under the lend-lease
act at a cost o f $300,000.000. The
state department announced a lend-
lease agreement with Cuba involving
an undisclosed amount of U. S de
fense supplies for that country and
supplies of sugar, tobacco and man
ganese in return.
OTHER FOREIGN R ELATIO N S
State Secretary Hull announced
the U. S. transmitted to Finland a
peace offer from the soviet union
with the advice that Finland must
give evidence of willingness to dis
continue military operations against
Russia if Finland wishes to keep U.
S. friendship. Mr. Hull also an
nounced that if Germany does not
now pay $2,967,000 damages for the
sinking of the Robin Moor, the
claim would be grr ped with other
pending cases f ; r adjustment after

SHIPS ATTAC KE D
The navy announced the U. S. S.
Salinas, navy oil tanker, reached
port safely and without 1 m s of life
despite serious damage from a tor
pedo the night of October 29-30
while in a convoy near Iceland. The
navy revised its list of casualties on
the destroyer Reuben James to show
two known dead and 98 missing and
given up for dead. The vessel was
torpedoed while conveying near Ice
land. There were 45 survivors.
N AV Y STRENGTHENED
The president transferred the en
tire coast guard to the navy depart
ment and asked congress for an ad
ditional $449,820,000 for the navy.
The coast guard transfer gave the
navy 230 patrol and auxiliary ves
sels and a large number of in-shore
and port craft.
SHIPS B U ILD IN G
The navy reported that during
the first 10 months of 1941, keels
were laid for 115 new combatant
ships, 34 ships were launched and
25 ships were commissioned. The
raritim e commission reported the
first three Liberty cargo ships will
be delivered the week of November
18. The commission has so far
aunched 148 new ships and deliver
ed 118 as result of its long-range
and emergency programs.
ARM Y PROGRESS
The war department reported the
-ate of delivery of critical arma
ment and ammunition to the army
by June, 1942, will be 360 times the
rate during May, 1940—when $1.000,-
000 worth was delivered. The rate,
the department said, increased 40
times by June of this year, 60 times
•y September, and 80 times by Oc
her.
The army also announced in-
-r ase in the rate of training of mo-
’ or maintenance officers by four
Himes, battalion commanders and
communications officers by 100 per
cent, and aircraft warning service
men by 900 per cent. The army al
so reported the rate of accidents in
military flying during the past year
remained unchanged despite great
ly increased training and tactical
flying and use of new and faster
ships.
FUEL C OORDINATOR
The president appointed Interior
Secretary Ickes to coordinate the
information regarding solid fuels
(coal, ccke, woojl, etc.) as well as
oil end to m:.ke recommendations
tc the suuply priorities and alloca
tions board as to production, stor
age, transportation, marketing and
other phases of the relationship of
fuels to the defense program. The
SPAB refused priority assistance for
construction of a pipeline from east
Texas to Bayonne, N. J., and said
its action “constituted a final dis-
approval." Mr. Ickes announced 15
U. S. oil tankers were released from
British service during October and
25 more will be released this month.
POWER
The president asked congress for
$30,000.000.000 for additional power
facilities in the Bonneville power
system because “ a critical power
shortage in this area is now immi
nent.” The OPM postponed from
November 10 to November 17 the
planned 30 per cent power curtail
ment for non-defense industries in
six southern states.
PRICES
Price Administrator Henderson
asked heating and cooking stove
manufacturers not to increase prices
above October 24 levels and radio
and radio-phonograph manufactur
ers not to increase prices above Oc
tober 1 levels. He said price pro
grams are being formulated for
both industries. The house passed
and sent to the senate a bill which
would freeze apartment, house and
hotel rents in the District of Co
lumbia as they were cn January 1,
1941.
M ATE RIALS
Lessing J. Rcsenwald, chief of the
OPM bureau of industrial conser
vation. announced the government
will soon begin a series of contin
uous campaigns to seek out unneed
ed household rubber, iron, alumi
num. paper, steel, copper (which
OPM said this week was more
scarce than any other needed ma
