pletion was hurried by Johnson in or
der that bids for $23S, 000, 900 in naval
construction might be opened July 26
on the basis Of the code rates of pay,
the 32-hour week was established for
naval jobs, and sc hours for other
work, Labor had insisted on a 30
hour week, since the Recovery Act
public works section, which provided
this money for the navy, required the
30-hour week wherever feasible"
The shipbuilding companies insisted
IN a 40-hour week with wage rates of
80 cents an hour in the South and 40
cents in the North. Johnson felt OBJ
liged to tell the bosses that, in view
of the fact that they were being hand
ed orders to the extent of $685. 00,-
900 of real money, they were showing
poor spirit.
Safeguarding of the wage rates of
skilled workers is a problem still left
open by the Administration. Presi-
dent Roosevelt gives assurance that
there will be equitable REIMBURSEMENT
of rates that have been above the old
minimum rates. But the rayon weav-
ing code, on which hearings began
July %, provided merely, on this point
that there should be no reduction of
weekly earnings because weekly hours
are reduced by the code, and that
"Wage differentials between the var
ious classes Of employees who, prior to
the effective date, received pay in
excess of the above minimum rate $12
and $13 a week shall not be de-
creased"
That means that a man who earn
ed $13 a week in a Northern mill
where the minimum was So a week,
might continue to get only $13 after
the code took effect-in other words,
he would get the minimum wage, for
all the code was represented as boost
ing the buying power of all workers.
A worker who had been getting $15
a week might continue at that rate.
Formerly 81 above the minimum, he
would now be only So above the mini
mum.

RECOVERY ACT.

WASHINGTON.-A succinct and clear explanation
the American Federation of Labor is organizing in mass
production industries throughout the United States was
made in statement by William Green, president of the
Federation.
Pointing out that the federal labor union has been an
integral part of the A. F. of L. organization plan for many

on this form is necessary in order that
hundreds of thousands of workers may
now realize the benefits of collective
bargaining, the free exercise Of which,
without interference from employers,
is guaranteed by the labor section of
the National Industrial Recovery
Act.
Text of Statement.
Following is the text of Mr.. Green's
statement:
"The American Federation of Labor
is pursuing its traditional policy in or
ganizing the workers in the automo-
bile, rubber, steel and miscellaneous
industries. The establishment of fed
eral labor unions in mass production
industries means that the American
Federation of Labor itself will repre-
sent these federal labor unions as they
are directly chartered by the parent
organization.
Federal Labor Union Principle.
Federal labor unions have been
formed by the American Federation
of Labor for many years. Through
this form of organization the workers
who do not come under the jurisdiction
of national and international unions
already formed become identified with
the organized labor movement.
"The American Federation of Labor
represents these federal labor unions
just the same as national and interna-
tional unions represent local organi-
cations directly chartered by them.
Through these federal labor unions the
workers in mass production industries
may become organized, may engage in
collective bargaining and may be rep
resented by men of their own choos-
ing, as provided for in the Industrial
Recovery Act.
Plant Organization Approved.
GAS a matter Of convenience and
practicability federal labor unions
will be established at different plants
if conditions seem to make it neces-
sary so that the workers may conven-
iently conduct their business affairs.
an considering industrial codes APP
plicable to these mass production in
dustries the workers will be represent
ed by the American Federation of La
Dor and will be given the benefit of
such expert, technical and trained
service the American Federation of
Labor can supply.
"There is no way by which these
workers may engage in collective bar
gaining except through the establish
ment Of federal labor unions affiliated
with the American Federation of La
Dor.
Represented by A. F. of L.
"The officers and members of these
federal unions will be free to choose
American Federation Of Labor rep
resentatives to speak for them and to
represent them in wage negotiations
at hearings where questions affecting
their interests are considered under
the authority of the Industrial Recov-
cry Act.
"In following such a plan of organi-
cation the American Federation OF
Labor is not in any way departing
from the form of organization and the
traditional policy which it has pur-
sued from the beginning.
"This policy is the only one by which
the workers can become organized and
enjoy the benefits of collective bar
gaining as provided for in Section z
of the Industrial Recovery Act"
