The news from the far east continues to be bad, with converging Japanese columns in southern China less than 100 miles apart at Kweilin and Liuchow. The gallant little Fourteenth United States Army Air Force has lost all its advanced bases except for Nanning, China, and Kweiyang, and has suffered the heartbreaking experience, of being forced to destroy the airfields it and its many Chinese friends had built with so much toil. With an air of dignified senility the executive council of the American Federation of Labor has declined the invitation issued by Great Britain's Trade Union Congress to a world labor conference in February, which will discuss labor's role in the peace.
