The President not only ignored the

did not extend to the two Virginia
Senators the common courtesy Of
discussing with them the appoint

any capable man who was not delib-

us by himself completely ignoring us

us in our State and among our COL

Little Change In N. Y.
Factory Jobs And Pay

Albany, N. Y. (ILNS).-Both fac
tory employment and payrolls in New
York state showed very little net
change from the middle of June to
the middle of July, Industrial Com
missioner Frieda S. Miller reports. A
net decline of only 0.3 per cent in en-
ployment was accompanied by very
slight increase of 0.01 per cent in to-
tai payrolls. The different industries
that constitute the total of manufac-
turing in the state showed varied
changes but large gains in some
tended to offset the losses at most
others. The largest gains resulted
from seasonal expansion at canning
and preserving plants and the start
of fall production at New York City
mems clothing and shoe firms.

Annexation Planned

Middletown, Ohio.-Steps to effect
a settlement of controversy over
the proposed annexation by Middle

Township were taken this week by
Butler County commissioners, who
took the proposal under advisement

Commissioners sent letters to Mid
dletown city commission, Lemon
Township trustees and Lemon Town
ship School Board suggesting the par
ties concerned consider readjustment
of the boundary lines of the territory
proposed for annexation.

LabOrs Stake In Public Housing Held Three Fold-JObs
Better Homes, And Sound Economy Under Which
Labor May Protect And Extend It's Gains

families in healthful surroundings,
and at rents one can afford,
Vinton said the third concern Of
labor is the general well-being of the
nation as a whole. without a
healthy and prosperous economy, re-
distribution of wealth is meaningless,
nor, as we have learned during the
last decade, can wage standards be
maintained" he declared.
Better Homes for Workers
"Public housing serves to increase
the national income and adds con-
stantly to the improvement of physi-
cal standards and the total wealth of
the nation" he continued.
sLow-income workers today cannot
afford to live in decent home. In
the Housing Act, Congress recognized
this and provided subsidy to make
it possible for low-income families to
live in decent homes. In addition to
providing such homes, the Housing
Act requires the elimination of slums."
In conclusion, Vinton said:
81 say, and l say it with the deep
est conviction, that the future of pub
lie housing in America depends ir
large part on labor. l say this be-
cause housing is so integral a part
of all those principles for which labor
stands"

up in opposition thereto. Our forces
are intact, harmony, understanding
and goodwill prevail within our ranks,
and the spirit and morale of our in

new heights.
GAS we appraise the spirit, courage

forced to the inevitable conclusion
that they will stand immovable in
defense of the economic philosophy
and the principles and policies of the
American Federation of Labor.
"Our ffty-ninth annual convention
will be the largest ever held. More
delegates will be in attendance, and
a larger number of visitors will be
present. The economic, social and
| industrial problems which we have
faced during the past year will be
considered and acted upon by the
delegates in attendance at the con-
vention. Definite plans for the ex-

will be formulated at this convention.

BETHLEHEM STEEL
APPEALS ORDER

New York (ILNS) e. G. Grace,
president of the Bethlehem Steel
Company, announces that his COM
pany has asked the United States
Court of Appeals at Washington to
set aside the ruling of the n. L. r. B.,
that his concern disestablish "com-
pany y-dominated" employee represen-
tation plans.
Grace charged that the C. o.,
whose Steel Workers Organizing
Committee filed the original protest
with the N. L. R. B., instigated the
action Sin deliberate attempt to de-
stroy the collective bargaining organ
izations of the employees at our plants,
which have existed for over 20
years. :"
eve believe that under the act,
neither the Labor Board nor the C.

Boston, Mass. (ILNS) .-"In the
development of public housing in
America, labor has played a signif-
cant role" Warren Jay Vinton, chief
economist and planning officer of the
United States Housing Authority,
told the Massachusetts Federation of
Labor, at it's annual meeting here.
"Without the vision and the real
istic approach, which characterized
labor's participation in the early
stages of the public housing program,
we would today still be talking and
writing about housing instead of
building homes for workers families" I"
Vinton said.
John Carroll Praised
John Carroll, as chairman of the
State Board of Housing and as an
active member of the Boston Housing
Authority, was praised by Vinton as
"an outstanding example of the abil-
| ity of labor to provide leadership in
community affairs"
Mr.. Vinton asked the federation to
step-up and extend it's activities in
relation to public housing and pointed
out that there was necessity for such
action.
Labor Decisive Factor
"When / said that labor played a
significant role in the development of
public housing in America, | meant
that labor not only contributed to the
housing movement but was decisive
factor" Vinton declared.
He stated that it was labor's pro
posals for a public housing program
that helped crystalline the experiences
of the early efforts in the housing
program. ''In the resolution passed
at the annual convention of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor, held in At.
lantic City in October, 1885, we saw
the first outlines of the present pro.
gram" Vinton said, and 'it was my
privilege to work in close collabora
tion with your committee at that time
and also to help further at the Tampa
convention in 1886.
"The present program of the U. S
III. A., program which is completely
decentralized, which places the initia
tive and responsibility directly in th'
hands of local committees, is the pro
gram which grew out of this early
formulation by your convention, rep
resenting organized labor in Amer
ica," he continued.
Labor's Concerns Three-fold
In summing up labor's main con
Germs, Vinton characterized them a.
''three-fold." The first concern be
ing employment at wages and work
ing conditions that would protect ant
extend the gains made through year.
of struggle and sacrifice. Secondly
the increasing of wages and the re
sultant raising of the standard of liv
