Description

The original release sheet reads: 1. LABOR-MANAGEMENT SEEK AGREEMENT: WASHINGTON, D.C. - Representatives of both industry and labor continue in conference as they seek to iron out industrial strife. William Green, AFL head, says labor must respect the employers' rights while at the same time retain the privilege to strike. Eric Johnston, head of the United States Chamber of Commerce, in a plea for unity, calls for both groups to meet more often around the council table and not in newspaper headlines. 2. BERLIN PREPARES FOR WINTER: The capital of Germany presents a desolate sight as the people clean up debris the best they can and lay in firewood for what is expected to be a cold and hungry winter. 3. ARMY UNVEILS "LITTLE DAVID": The largest caliber mortar ever built, the "Little David" is capable of hurling a two-ton explosive eight miles with surprising accuracy. Designed for the Jap invasion it was perfected too late for use in combat. 4.

More than forty thousand of them take their last gobble and their last strut. Boy, the cranberry sauce. 6.

Six trains carrying combat equipment start a tour of the country as the V-Bond is queen is crowned in Washington. (LOCAL – CANADA) PRESIDENT OF CHILE IN CANADA.
