METzCAR BACK
FROM BUSINESS
VISIT OUTSIDE
Official Comments on En-
ployee Election, New
Wage-Hour Setup

L. H. Metzgar, General Superin-
tendent of the Alaska Juneau Gold
Mining Company, returned to Ju-
neau yesterday afternoon on the
Princess Norah after a business trip
to San Francisco. Mrs. Metzgar, who
accompanied him Outside, is stav-
ing over in San Francisco, and Mr..
Metzgar says he may rejoin her in
the south for the holidays.
Commenting on the forthcoming
election among company employees
for the purpose of determining a
bargaining agency, Mr.. Metzgar
said "the company does not want
to take any part except to see that
the law is observed, and it makes
no difference which group might be
selected as the bargaining unit or
agency, but we hope that all the
company's employees will vote at
the election, which is to be held
December g."
ut is the policy of the company
to get along with its employees so
far as humanity possible without any
friction" he said, land we should
like to see avoided all source of fric-
ton among the employees them
selves or groups of employees. We
believe that if all the employees will
vote at the coming election and
express their choice, there will be
less cause for complaint by any
group or union or set of employees
than if a small vote is cast. If all
employees do not vote, there is like
ly to arise the claim that if all had
voted, the result would have been
otherwise"
With reference to the company's
policy under the wages and hours
bill which went into effect ON Oc-
tober "a, the official said:
1T has been brought to my atten-
ton that few complaints have
been made that in some instances
the paycheck at the first payday
under the new law was a little lower
than the previous paycheck, other
things being equal The reason for
that is that the new law went into
effect on October "a, which was
Monday. The hours under the new
law must be regulated by weeks, and

NO PEACE IN

Adopts Re
port of Committee, No
Recommendations

PITTSBURGH, Pa, Nov. IS
The CLIO convention today adopted
its peace committees report which
did not recommend any new steps
to deal with the breach with the
AFL.
The CLIO delegates to the conven-
ton adopted the report unanimous
ly, by a standing vote.
The report was read by Phillip
Murray, Vice-Chairman of the con-
vention, who declared there could
be mo compromise in the CLOS
fundamental purpose and aim in
organizing workers into powerful
industrial unions, nor obligations
to fully protect the rights and
interests of all its members af-
filiated in the organization"
Van Bittner, Region Director of
the Steel Workers Organizing Com
mittee, opposed the move to table
the report which was made by
Haywood Broun, to permit of adj
ditional debate declaring: While I
want and desire honorable peace
in labor unity in the United States
that is not the paramount ques-
ton before this convention. The
paramount question is establishing
the CLIO of organizing unorganized
workers in this country"
Broun withdrew his motion after
Murray said: THE resolution I read
opens wide the door of labor unity
and does not deny the Presidents
desire for peace in the labor
ranks"

BERLIN, Nov. 15.-United States
Ambassador Hugh R. Wilson said
this afternoon he had cancelled
his planned visit to England and
will leave tomorrow for the United
States as a result of urgent sum-
mons to Washington.
The Ambassador did not disclose
the purpose of the summons but
informed circles took it for granted
he has been called to Washington
to go over the entire German sit
uation with special emphasis on
the anti-Jewish wave of the past
week.
Wilson is prepared to leave to-
morrow and sail from LIE Havre
Thursday on the U. S. liner Man

The summons home came in the
midst of the German press attack
on Great Britain for inhuman
manhunt against the Arabs in
Palestine, evident in evaporation
of the British criticism in Ger
many's drive on the Jews.
