Business is Urged to Take
100000 Off Relief Rolls

Silver Bay, n. Y. (ILNS)-Assist
ant Secretary Of Commerce Ernest
G. Draper proposed here that the
nations business associations unite
to permanent jobs by September,

Draper, addressing the goth annual
conference on industrial relations, de-
clared the time was ripe for "hard,
unremitting work" by industry to
cure the evils of unemployment.
why could not every single busi-
ness association, large and small, ma
tional and local, bind itself together
through inter-related committees with
the sole purpose Of taking off the
relief rolls into jobs of more or less
permanent nature 100000 persons

MEAT CUTTERS
Form Unions in Richmond

By A. F. Of l. News Services.
Richmond, Va. - Organization of
packing house workers in the Rich
mond area is progressing rapidly, ac-
cording to statement issued here by
Walter Hegeman, international rep
resentative of the Almalgamated
Meat Cutters and Butcher Workmen.
Two new local unions have been es-
tablished, both now doing nicely un-
der their own officers, Local No. 351
consists of both men and women,
white, who work in the packing in
dustry. Local No. 432 consists exclu-
sively of Negroes, employed in the va
rious packing plants.
A unique arrangement has been eff
fected, in that both locals send dele
gates TO each others meetings and,
of course, to the Central Trades and
Labor Council. Then, too, a joint ex-
ecutive board, composed of representa-
tives of both locals, meets each month
to promote understanding and the
mutual progress of all concerned. A
Special Central Trades and Labor
Council for Negroes is held as prob
able. due to widespread organization
of colored locals, it is stated.
Currently, the organizing campaign
of the meat cutters and butcher work
men is not being confined to packing
houses alone, but is extending to
wholesale houses and markets, with
gratifying results reported.

Board Claiming Exclusive Jurisdiction Labor Matters
Affecting Interstate Commerce, Says Contract Be
tween Electrical Workers and Pennsylvania Company
Is Void and Orders Collective Bargaining Election.

Washington, d. C. (ILNS)-In
decision more far-reaching than any
it has made before, the National La
Dor Relations Board claims exclusive
jurisdiction over all labor matters
affecting interstate commerce, and
holds that federal judge of the dis
trict court has no right to issue de-
cree in such case.
This is the outcome-to date-of
the contest between the international
Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, an
affiliate of the A. F. of L. and the

Brotherhood Recognized
Evidence taken before the boards
examiner states that this local was
not organized until May %, when it
held its first meeting. On May 27, the
company signed contract recognizing
the brotherhood as the sole bargaining
agency, and
Further agrees to employ only
members of the brotherhood or those
who have made proper arrangements
for becoming members within q days
after being employed"
And in the event that an employe

The state is divided into zones; and
the bottom rate is SO cents an hour

A.F.OF [.
Favored By Ohio Teachers

Cleveland.-OhioS State Federation
of Teachers delegates to the 2lst an
nual convention of the American Fed
Grafton of Teachers, voted SO to "a in
opposing a referendum on CIO affil-
iation, according to Michael ]. Eek,
executive secretary of the Ohio group
with headquarters here.
The convention of the American
Federation of Teachers, an American
Federation Of Labor affiliate, was held
at Madison, Wisconsin, August %
to 81.
By vote of 285 to 227, the conven-
ton favored the taking of referen-
dunn on the CIO affiliation question,
but not earlier than February, 1898.
The referendum resolution also gave
the national executive council disco
tion to postpone the referendum in
definitely.
The referendum was proposed by Gu
adherents after it became evident IN
debate on the question of the floor
of the convention that they would be
beaten on a clear-cut ClO affillatlon
amendment to the Teachers Union
constitution.
An assessment of $1.00 was levied
on the 25,0O0 members of the AFT,
by the convention for promoting or
ganization work throughout the coun-
try.
In that connection, an intensive or
panization drive is to be conducted IN
Ohio during the next few months II
which it is hoped that the membership
Of the Federation of Teachers will be
doubled and the number of local un-
ions increased accordingly.

US. HOUSING BILL
Will Provide Homes For
100000

Washington, d. C.-The tremen-
dous benefits which will result from
the administration of the federal
housing bill passed by congress just
before adjournment were succinctly
appraised in brief statement by the
research staff of the American FEEDER
alton of Labor.
In addition to providing adequate
housing for large number of low
income groups, the abolition of thou
sands Of slum dwellings,, and the ex-
penditure of hundreds Of millions of
dollars for direct labor on construc-
ton sites, the statement estimated
that around $240,000,000 will be ex-
pended for materials during the adj
ministration of the housing program.
S500,000,O00 For Loans to Housing
Agencies
"The Wagner-Steegall low rent
housing bill makes available to the
United States Housing Authority dur
ing the next three years capital
fund Of 100000, ,ooo,' the statement
said "This fund will be used for loans
to local housing authorities to aid
them in the construction of projects.
These loans are limited to 80 per cent
of the cost of the projects, and, hence,
will form the federal share in the
financing of projects valued at over
$3.50 100000"

Judge Upholds Contract

SO much for the inter-union dispute.
But the company took the case to the
federal district court Of western
Pennsylvania, and the Judge issued
a decree, requiring the company to
perform its contract Of May 27 with
the brotherhood. OF this, the board
states:
"This decree is no bar to the IN
stant (present) proceeding under the
national labor relations act or to the
making of an order by the board under
the terms of that act, that the respon-
dent shall cease and desist from dis
eliminating against the employees be-
cause they decline to join the brother
hood This act embodies a public
policy of national concern and the
supreme law Of the land on the subject
matter covered by it, It empowers
the board to prevent any unfair labor
practice affecting commerce and eX-
pressly provides that this power shall
be exclusive and that jurisdiction in
the circuit court Of appeals to review
the boards orders is likewise 'exclu
sive'"
Union Head Scores Board
President Dan W. Tracy, of the
IBEW scored the board bitterly for
its decision.
"It is a dastardly decision Tracy
said. 1T affects the validity Of con-
tracts made for the improvement of
workingmen. It affects the power Of
federal court which | understand
to be superior to the labor board.
1T is our understanding that the
law is to protect the workingman, and
we're not going to take this lying
down"
1t is almost certain that the case
will be carried to the supreme court.

The Waterbury Democrat., 1937-02-09


 motor vehicle department states to- day that carelessness on the part of pedestrians was responsible in good part for the increase in fatalities.
 Last year Waterbury had one auto death in January. New Haven had four fatalities last month to lead the state, while Hamden had three to rank second. Several cities and towns had two fatalities.
 Official Statement
 Connecticut got away to 8 sad start in the Traffic Safety Com paign for 1887. January reported an increase of five traffic deaths, according to the Motor Vehicle De- partment bulletin, which comments as follows:
 Coming on the heels of the splendid showing made for 1886, when Connecticut practically led the country in traffic fatality de- crease the January increase is sad dening to those interested in creat- ing more security for all kinds ot traffic on our streets and highways.
 Twenty-four of the traffic fatal ities were pedestrians. In the ma jority of the accidents, at least, the pedestrian seemed to be at fault according to facts reported. Of course, when pedestrians are killed the department is able to secure but one side of the case - the story of the operator of the car that struck the unfortunate foot traveller.
 However, pedestrians do, consist ently, display too little considera- ton for their own welfare; walking along highways in storms with their heads bowed to the winds and pay ing no attention to vehicular traffic; crossing streets between intersections when surfaces are made slippery by inclment weather and actually step ping out from between parked cars into the path of vehicles in motion as well as crossing thorughfares against signal lights.
 Yet Connecticut must shoulder the onus of bad traffic fatality month because adults will not safeguard themselves. Only one child pedes- trian was killed and that fatality was the fault of the car operator who was careless.
 The bulk of pedestrian fatalities were caused during dark" hours, when natural light had faded and operators had the additional hazard of abbreviated visual distance. Waterbury recorded clean slate for January as regards traffic fatal ities. New Britain had four, all pe- destrians; Hartford had two pedes-
