“We’re pressed for space this
week,” the editor said, “so try
to make it short and to the point,”

It?s THAT time of year again —
the season of friendship, Christ-
mas cards and Christmas bells;
greetings to friends old and new;
the time for turkey, dressing, and
plum pudding; it’s also the time
when many of us take a long hard
look at the year just past, at its
victories and defeats, and we
look to the new year with the hope
of better things to come,

Even as we experience the joy
of family get-togethers and gay
festivities, we cannot forget our

responsibilities to those like us
around the world — the people
of Vietnam, napalm-burned, tor-
tured, homes and villages des-
troyed; the people of Rhodesia,
groaning under the oppressive,
illegal government of Ian Smith,
and likewise the people of South
Africa facing even more reac-
tionary legislation under the fas-
cist Verwoerd government,

And closer to home, the mighty
freedom movement in the U.S,A,,
as they brace themselves for
greater struggles in the coming
year; and even closer than that,
the plight of our own Indians
and Eskimos, :

Not for any of these people
the carefree, happy joys of the
holiday season, And we must
renew our determination to work
harder to ensure peace in the
world, for without peace there
will be nothing, In the words
of writer Peter Eden, “Peace
will never break out, it is an art
each one of us has to cultivate,”

On that note, we will close our
column for 1965, with warm gree-
tings to all our readers and
friends, Let’s all strive harder
for a truly peaceful world in 1966,

Our ‘prosperity’ is based
mainly on war, says Hoffa

DETROIT — “People are living
in a fool’s paradise if they think
they’ve got real prosperity — it
is based on three wars: World
War I, World War II, and now
the one we are in,” said James
R, Hoffa, International President
of the Teamsters before 2,000
member of his Local 299,

“We can’t continue killing men
as we are, When it ends there
will be an economic crisis which

will make 1929 look like nothing
and all the built-in- safety devices
won’t save us,” Hoffa declared,

Hoffa called for peacetime
prosperity, the need for an early
retirement program for all work-
ers of*55 years of age and said
that with rising automation inthe
next decade the work week would
have to be shortened to 34-32
hours a week at double the pay-
cheque,

He said that every strike now
has to be won by national action,
because employers shut down a
shop in one place and shift the
work to one of their plants in
another town, thus starving out
the strikers,

He said the Teamsters look up-
on all strikes from a national
viewpoint. He cited examples of
a Pittsburgh gasoline strike,
where the owners shut down and
Hoffa, to prevent the defeat of
the strike, called in the national
chain owners and told them they’d
shut it all down if they didn’t
settle, The strike was settled
in a few hours,

Hoffa said, “in industrial Am-
erica, this is a true tactic that
must be used if we are to win,

the same owner operates his
business in other areas and
makes up his losses there for
what he doesn’t make in the struck
plant or operation,”

Hoffa told newsmen that the
American economy is 50 percent
or more based on a war econ-
omy.

Hoffa’s remarks about U,S.
‘prosperity’ being based ona war
economy closely parallel sim-
ilar statements made recently by
Harry Bridges, Longshoremen’s
leader, When increased war
shipments to Vietnam opened up 4
few hundred jobs on the water-
front, Bridges described this as
“blood money.”

tentions of Hoffa and Bridges,
the AFL—CIO convention in San
Francisco last week voted to
back President Johnson’s posi-
tion in Vietnam, But a rider
was added: that efforts should
be maintained to open up nego-
tiations.

After days of wrangling, this
compromise was brought down
as an attempt to reconcile the
ultra-right position on Vietnam
taken by AFL—CIO president
George Meany and a more moder-
ate view held by other labor
leaders like Walter Reuther and
Emil Mazey of the UAW,
