Rereading Radical Ideas Prompts Debate On Progress
The speaker contends that what was once dismissed as mad talk is actually sound. They argue that progress abolished slavery established public schooling and created juvenile courts, recasting controversial opinions as legitimate reforms.
Revision of Bill Is Recommended
The House military committee recommended a drastic revision of the Senate approved plant seizure bill. It would defer men reaching 28 by July 1 from the draft if not in the Army and empower the President to reopen strike bound defense plants. The measure would make forced labor in defense plants or threats to deter workers punishable as sabotage with penalties up to a $5,000 fine and five years imprisonment.
