J~urisdidionaI Strikes
End Lauded by Harding
S p o k for Contractors
Group Says Investors May
Now Go Ahead Without Fear"

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The end
ing of work stoppages resulting from
jurisdictional disputes among the
building trades under the terms of
an understanding reached between
the Executive Council of the Build
ing and Construction Trades Depart
ment of the American Federation of
Labor and the Associated General
Contractors of America was applaud
ed here by Edward j. Harding, man
aging director of the contractors, on
his return from Atlantic City, where
the agreement was finalized.
The understanding, Mr.. Harding
said, was "a cooperative achievement
outstanding in the history of the
labor relations movement in the con-
s~truction industry" The understand
ing was also, according to Mr.. Hard
ing, the elimination of long con-
tinued efforts to this end and one of
the detectives of a four-point pro-
gram adopted at the annual conven-
ton of the contractors in San Fran
cisco last month.
Suspensions of work due to iuris-
d%ictional disputes" MI. Harding de-
clared, "ended with the Atlantic City
understanding that such demands
will be adjudicated by the impartial
president of the Building and Con-
struction Trades Department and
that work shall proceed pending such
Montana labor news., 1939-08-31

Also restored to the bill was a
$4,000, 900 item for the Commodity
Credit Corporation. This item was
deleted by the House and Secretary
of Agriculture Henry Wallace
warned that its omission from the
bill would cause farm prices to sink
to mid-depression bottoms.
AS the question of restoring the
$1l9,000,0 900 item to the bill came to
a roll call vote, economy-howlers
who succeeded during the session in
wrecking relief were discreetly silent
and the amendment carried 81 to 7.
Among the main advocates of
Economy who voted for the bill
were Sens. Burke ID, Neb.), Harri-
son ID, Miss, Bailey Cd, N. c.,
Vandenberg (R., Mich.), and Austin
(R., VT. Sen. Taft (R., Ohio,
presidential aspirant, voted against
the measure as did Sens. Bridges (R.,
N. H and Lodge ID, Mass.).
Observers were amused to note
Vandenberg's vote for the $119,000,-
900 farm aid item as well as his vote
for all of the amendments to the
relief act, They acquired significance
in view of Taft's opposing votes and
in view of the fact that Taft is re-
garded as Vandenberg's chief rival
for the Republican presidential
nomination.
It was also noted that in debate
Vandenberg argued against the
$119, 900, 900 item and challenged
Wallace's criticism of the House ac-
ton. Apparently he failed to con-
vince even himself in the debate
however, for his vote was recorded
for the increase.
Montana labor news., 1939-08-31

proposal that no other amendments
would be proposed under suspension
of the rules if the rules were sus-
pended to permit a vote on the Muir
ray amendment. Sen. Smith d.,
S. c., the oldest member of the
Senate and the object of Pres.
Roosevelt's opposition in the last
election, made a speech refighting
the war between the states and
announced, 81 object"
Amendments restoring the pre-
vailing wage and barring reductions
in the security wages through the
application of a cost of living
formula inserted into the relief act
by the southern bloc, were offered
by Sen. McCarran ID, New. They
failed to obtain the necessary two
thirds majority.
On the Murray amendment, the
roll call vote was 38 yeas and 81
noes. The McCarran prevailing
wage amendment lost by a roll call
vote of 40 yeas and 81 noes while
the McCarran wage cut amendment
lost on a roll call vote of 46 yeas
and 81 noes.
This last desperate fight on the
needed changes in the relief act
came in the Senate as Congress
rushed towards adjournment. Pend
ing in the Senate was the third and
last deficiency appropriation bill of
the session.
Pared down in the House from
$3.50, OOO, 900 to $4,000, 900, the Sen
ate quickly restored the bill to ap-
proximately the full amount re-
quested. Without debate it gave the
wage-hours division the additional
$4,000, 900 requested and eliminated
by the House committee.
Montana labor news., 1939-08-31
Ati Changes Die
As Senate Refuses
Consideration

for
improvements in the drastic 1910
relief act faded here as the Senate,
in three successive roll call votes,
rejected amendments designed to re-
store the prevailing wages, prevent
cuts in the security wage, and tighten
the burden of the l8-months layoff
provision.
Though each of the propositions
received a majority vote, supporters
of the legislation were unable to Sc
cure the two-thirds vote necessary
to suspend the rules and permit their
attachment to the pending deficiency
bill.
Coming closest to passage was an
amendment offered by Sen. Murray
ID, Mont.), providing that prefer
ence in WPA employment be given
those on certified lists for three
months and tightening the require
ment that those on WPA rolls 10
months or more be dismissed.
Previously approved by the Sen
ate, the provision apparently would
have been adopted had senators been
assured that once the rules were
suspended to permit adoption of the
Murray amendment, other amend
ments to which they objected would
not be put forward.
Sen. Schwellenbach 3D., WASH
sought to give such assurances by
requesting unanimous consent to a
