Philadelphia, Pa. (ILNS)- Yielding
to pressure from Mayor Wilson, the
Philadelphia Rapid Transit Co. has
announced that in September it will
replace large number of one-man
trolley cars with cars requiring both

TWENTY THOUSAND
Union Aluminium Workers
Win Pay Boost

Pittsburghh, Pa.-After negotia-
tions with representatives of A. +.
of L. unions, the Aluminium Company
of America granted another general
increase in wages of three cents an
hour to 10000 hourly paid employees
of the company in its six plants. The
agreement becomes effective Septem-
Der Is.
The new rates constitute five per
cent pay increase. 1t is the second
increase made by the company within
ten months, and will make the hourly
rate II per cent higher than in 1929,
company officials said.
The wage increase followed a
months negotiations between the
Aluminium Company and the repre-
sentatives of the National Council of
Aluminium Workers, an A. F. of L.
affiliate.
l. w. Wilson, vice president of the
Aluminium Company, had informed the
National Council of Aluminium Work
ers that:
Eve are ready to discuss matters
of mutual interest to the company and
to those of our employees who are
members of any such local union, with
such committees of those unions or
your council as those employees may
designate as their representative or
representatives.

New York, N. William Green,
president of the American Federation
of Labor, presented an A. F. of L.
charter to the American Newspaper
Guild at meeting in the Hotel
Biltmore here The charter was re
Gently granted by the executive
council of the American Federation
of Labor
In welcoming news written into the
organized labor movement, Mr. Green
pointed out that the newspaper pub
fishers are highly organized. He did
not criticise them for this. But, he
added, mo newspaper owner or group
of owners has any right to claim the
fright to organize and at the same
time deny that right to men and
women who work for wages and
salaries"
Declaring that the time had passed,
when men and women of talent could
obtain justified recompense without
jorgani2ing with their fellow men, he
said the officers and members of the
guild did not seek to interfere with
freedom of the press or with the
exercise of the rights of editorial
writer's. Nor was there a disposition
on the part of the American Fedora
| ton of Labor ''to interfere with the
policies of the newspapers of
America"
What the A. F. of L. did pledge
itself to do, he went on, was to use its
power to bring about better stand
ard of life and of living" for the
newspaper writer's now embraced in
it's ranks.
Majority VS.. Minority Rule
/ In the course of his talk Mr.. Green
told the news writer's that the current
family dispute" in trade union ranks
was not one of craft versus industrial
unions, as many persons had, unfor-
tunately, been led to believe, but one
of democracy-whether the unions
affiliated with the American Fedora
tion of Labor should abide by the ma
ljority decision on organizational
policy taken at it's 1885 convention in
Atlantic City to be applied until the
next convention.
"The trouble is" he said, "a minor
Iity has organized to put into effect
a decision that was lost at the Allan
tic City convention. The overshadow-
ling principle at stake is that of demo-
cratic rule, the will of the majority.
In these days we are fighting against
1 Fascism, demanding that the majority
shall prevail. How can we do that in
national affairs if we are willing to
accept minority control in an organi-
zation like the A. F. Of L.? 1t is a
question Of practicing what you

ordinator's letters.
Business Improves; Millions Are Idle
1T seems incredible, but it is true
nevertheless" the letter continued,
"that in spite of the upswing in all
lines of business and the increase in
the volume of prodution and of re-
ported corporate earnings to a point
now close to the 1929 level millions
of able-bodied citizens still seek in
vain for gainful employment.
Local communities, whether di-
rectly affected by this condition or
not, cannot escape the pernicious in
fuence of a situation in which, in
| addition to those actually jobless,
there are three million other workers
exclusive of the stats of old-time
government departments and agen-
cies, who have nothing to cling to but
| the payroll of the federal govern
ment."
Asking whether this can be called
recovery" as many business leaders
claim, the co-ordinator adds: will it
lead to economic stability and that
] volume of sustained consuming power
! in the market upon which industry is
dependent for profitable operation
/ Private Enterprise Must Provide Jobs
Major Berry expressed the view that
any practical program looking toward
economic stability and security must
provide for return of the unemployed
to gainful occupation in private en-
/ terprise. "Otherwise,' he said, they
must be sheltered, fed and clothed
with public funds. There is no alter
native. AS long as this direct drain
on the federal treasury continues, bal
ancing the budget seems to be for
lorn hope"
The same forces as were response
bic for the collapse in 1929 are now
dominant in this country. Under the
gulSe OF recovery these FORCES are
working to create the same conditions
of maldistribution and unwise use Of
the national income as that preceding
1929. If permitted to continue un,
checked inevitably they must plunge
US again into crisis in which the
fundamental principles of democracy
may be renounced."
Officers Of Rotary Clubs through
out the nation have been written te
by Co-ordinator Berry in behalf o.
the industry council to stimulate s
widened discussion of vital industria
problems which affect the public
interest.

Washington, D. ca vigorous in
dictment of the industrial policy of
American employers which imposes
continued unemployment and desti-
tuition upon millions of our people and
untold suffering upon them and their
families was made here by George L..
Berry, President Roosevelt's co-ordi-
nator for industrial cooperation and
chairman of the Council for Indus
trial Progress, in an appeal to busi-
ness leaders to unite with the coun-
ell to end unemployment and solve
the problems inextricably connected
with it.
Declaring that the unemployment
crisis which began with the depres-
sion in 1929 was caused by the NAL.
distribution of the national income,
Mr.. Berry pointed out that the same
forces which brought about the 1929
crash are now dominant in industry
and are applying policies inevitably
resulting in the unjust wealth distri-
button which precipitated that catas-
trophe.
False Recovery
In a general approach to the jobless
army question, Major Berry asked
local Chambers of Commerce
throughout the country to join with
the Council for Industrial Progress
in considering the problems of un-
employment, federal relief, labor
conditions, and the mal-distribution
and unwise use of the national in
come.
Letters sent by Major Berry to more
than 1000 officials of commerce bod
les emphasized the danger of false
evaluation of recovery" and urged
widespread discussion of industrial
affairs.
THE situation is a challenge to the
intelligence, patriotism and leadership
of the American people" Major Berry
declared 1T transcends in Importance

it as a subject meriting the earnest
consideration of your chamber at an

The co-ordinator identified the coun-
Gil as "the joint instrument of capi-
tai, management and labor for the
determination of fact, for composing
divergent views, and for co-ordinated
action, to the end that united industry
may become an effective guiding in
fiuence in the economic life of the
nation for promotion of the general
welfare"
The problems which concern the
council, it was pointed out, cast "the
shadow of uncertainty on the future

were urged to give them earnest
thought and discussion. Offers of as.

himself since he knew his life
would be forfeited by the escape
of the prisoners entrusted to his
