N. Y. SURVEY ON
EMPLOYMENT CUT

Albany, N. Y. (ILNS) Mechanic
improvements and inventions increas-
ing workers output resulted in a
gradual decrease in New York state
factory employment from 1914 to 1889,
the State Labor Department reported,
following recent survey.
The survey, covering twenty-six
years, shows a downward factory en-
ployment dip in its state labor index
of 1.8 points per year and explains:
chronological advances during the
past quarter century have greatly in
creased the output per worker. 1t
would take a greatly expanded volume
of production and consumption of
manufactured products to absorb the
same working force at the end of the
period as at the beginning.
Opportunities in other fields of en-
deavor such as service, trade, profess
sional, ETC.. have been increasing dur
ing this period and the downward
trend of manufacturing employment
is not necessarily indicative of de-
cline in occupational opportunities in
the state"
The report added that "the great
depression which came in the later
years" terminating or curtailing many
industries, also tended to produce
downward trend.

Policy Making

The more labor unions participate
in the making of policy dealing with
problems of vital concern to workers
in the field of national defense, the
more they can help in the accomplish
ment of the purpose of the policy.
Full agreement of the labor repre-
sentative should be an essential before
the adoption of any policy of vital con-
Germ to the workers, and no govern
mental administrator responsible for
any part of the defense program
should issue basic order without hav-
ing the benefit of the advice and ex-
perience of the groups concerned

tional Representative.

SLAVE IDEA

1t has been suggested that in order
to present a united front to threat
ening world, the minority should now
surrender its convictions and join the
majority This would mean that in
the United States of America there
would be only one dominant party
only one economic philosophy-only
one political philosophy of life. This
is totalitarian idea-it is slave
idea-it must be rejected utterly

GREEN SAYS new
ORDER TO GOVERN
LABOR, INDUSTRY

New Orleans GLNS).-A new or
der. with righteousness and an awak-
ened social consciousness dominant,
must characterize future relations be-
tween labor and capital, William
Green, president of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor, told the First Bap-
tist Church congregation here. Presi-
dent Green was one Of number Of
labor executives who spoke in New
Orleans pulpits during the A. F. of l.
convention here.

living standards are first line
of defense.
"To bring those who are underfed,
ill-clad and poorly housed to decent
level will require industry to pay the
largest wage increases possible" )" the
survey said.
Higher Wages Seen
Feasible Now
Higher production makes wage in
creases possible now, the survey con-
tends, citing figures showing highei
output and profits as proof that in
dustry is able to raise pay. Discuss
ing wage principles, the survey says:
employers are claiming that wage
increases will bring price increases.
Companies able to pay higher wages
sometimes use a wage increase as an
excuse for unnecessary price increases.
This is against the public good. Fig
ures show that increased production
and profits furnish basis for raising
wages"

Raise Wages, Maintain 4O-Hour
Week To Boost Production For
Defense, Business Survey Urges
Survey Stresses the Responsibility of Union Members to
Give Their Best and Also to Preserve Work Standards
Already Won-AFL Sees Pay Increases Possible.

Washington, D. c. (ILNS).-Higher
production makes wage increases pos
sible and they should be given without
delay, the American Federation of La
Dor declares in its current survey of
business.
Keynotes of the survey are insist
ence on wage increases, maintenance
of the 40-hour week, cooperation for
effective production.
"Americas future" the survey says,
"depends upon our ability to produce
quickly the means for adequate ma
tional defense against the revolution
that terrorizes Europe. Production is
the key to our problem. The whole
nation must work together, cooper
ating without waste of people, time
or materials.
"Whatever minimizes or blocks CO
operation, slows down essential pro
duction. Whether interference lies IN
individuals or groups it lmpedes
progress toward national defense
when every hour is important
Spirit of People
Key to Defense
"The key to defense lies in the
spirit of our people. Ii there IS the
will to do, to dare, to endure hard
ships rather than give up a way OF
life, to such a spirit all things are
possible. But such a spirit is born
Of freedom and is nourished by con-
fidence of rights maintained and con-
fidence that even-handed justice will
assure opportunity for progress and
higher standards and levels of living. !"
The survey stresses the responsi-
bility of union members to give their
best and also to preserve work stand
ards already won and to raise the
standards Of the lower paid. 1t says:
Naturally union men and women
are the nations great reliance in this
time of emergency. We can give the
utmost in our daily work because we
know that our rights are protected
by union agreements
Standards of Work
Must Be Preserved
"While giving our best, we alsc
have another responsibility: To pre-
serve the work standards already won
in this country, and to bring better
living standard to those now below
the danger line of health. Undeinour-
ished and underprivileged people are
q liability to any nation at any Tune.
In time of national danger they are
a danger. They are easily persuaded
to Communism or other unAmerlcan
PHILOSOPHERS. With rising production
and employment, and higher company
profits, we have for the first time IN
II years chance to see that no one
is undernourished. So let US eiiml-
nate danger to national unity from
the hungry and those denied oppor-
tunity."
Short Hours Declared
Production Aid
The survey also stresses the neces-
sity of maintaining the 40-hour week
"History shows that production m
creases as work hours are shortened
it is declared.

pointing out that the President,

many leading citizens have re-
peatedly declared that adequate

AFL Backs Every Effort To Help
British Arming; Plea For Quick
Aid By Citrine Stirs Convention
Speech of British Labor Chief and VIM Green's Response
Bring Big Demonstrations of Approval-Ask Congress
to Ban Letting of Contracts to Labor Law Vi0ators.

New Orleans ILNS). American
labor's determination to put forth ev-
cry effort to aid in the arming Of
Great Britain was voiced at the six
tieth annual convention of the Amer
lean Federation Of Labor, as the dele
gates swung into the second week of
the meeting.
Following a long address by Sir
Walter Citrine, general secretary of
the British Trades Union Congress
the president of the International
Federation of Trade Unions, President
William Green of the A. F. of L. cried:
Hurry, hurry up, America, and
send to Great Britain all that we have
of physical and moral strength so
that you may quickly win the war.
The American Federation Of Labor
will make its chief object to send a
steady stream of war materials, of
the things that Britain needs most of
all in this great hour of her deepest
need"
Need Is Urgent,
Britisher Says
Enthusiastic applause e followed
Green's address. Applause equally as
enthusiastic greeted telling points
made by Citrine, who pleaded for
"planes and planes and more planes.
"Our need is urgent" the British
labor leader declared, 81 want you
to make the American work shop the
first line of defense for all democ-
racy. We are grateful for the gener-
Gus help we have received from you.
| want you to realize that speed is
the essence, now as never before, that
the bombing is getting SO intense"
While showing Enthusiastically its in
flexible will to back the defense pro-
gram to the limit, the convention
made clear its determination to pro-
tect and maintain existing work and
pay standards by demanding that Con-
gress prohibit letting of defense con-
tracts to firms that violate federal
labor laws. The resolution to this ef-
feet was recommended to the conven-
tion by the committee on legislation
under the Craftsmanship of |. Nj. Orn-
burn, secretary-treasurer of the Union
Label Trades Department.
Convention Repeats
| Special Assessment
The convention declaration said that
Certain large corporations who bic
on government contracts have flag
rantly and willfully violated the law
by employing coercion and intimida-
tion and even by resorting to violence
to impede or prevent workers from
exercising their rights granted them
under the law" The awarding of con-
tracts to such corporations was ''in-
tolerable," the convention said.

he was sure a more equitable dis
tribution of the national income could
be effected under this nations demo-
cratic form of government
In the course of his address, the
A. F. of L. head vigorously attacked
Communism, Fascism and Nazism.
Archbishop Rummel of New Or
leans urged labor unionists attending
mass at st. Louis Cathedral to en-
deavor to extend the benefits of union
organization to the 80 per cent Of
unorganized wage earners in the
United States.
AFL Leadership Praised
The Archbishop praised the Sin
telligent, constructive and yet con-
servative leadership" of the A. +. of l..
and expressed hope that the federation
would help inaugurate "a reign of So
cial justice unprecedented IN the his
tory of the world"
"To achieve such reign without
recourse to radicalism, without the
sacrifice of the dignity of the human
individual, without violence and ter
rorism, without the aid of blatant
apostles of irreligion, without storm
ing the battlements of constitutional
government and well-ordered democ-
racy must be our aim and mission, y
the Archbishop said.

Miss Perkins Urges

'thwart influences from dishonest or
subversive sources" within the labor
movement.
Labor has status today as never
before" she said, "and that status
carries with it responsibility, respon-
sibility to wage earners and response
bility to all the people Of the United
States. That responsibility calls for
the carrying out of all contracts
agreed upon.
"The responsibility calls for vigi-
lance in the maintenance of high
standards so as to thwart influences
from dishonest or subversive sources

within the labor movement.

the A. f. of L. was cleared by repeal
ing the special assessment of / cent a
month member levied in 1887 and
doubling the regular per capita tax OF
cent a month now paid by affiliated
unions for each member. The |. t. U.
and International Ladies Garment
Workers Union had opposed the spe-
cial assessment, charging it was levied
solely for the purpose of fighting the
CLIO.
Suspension Power
Brings Long Debate
The proposed constitutional amend
ment to deprive the Executive Coun-
ell of power to suspend unions led to
long debate The committee report
gave the council the power to suspend
only when two or more unions con-
spire to set up dual movement and
then only after charges and convic-
tion before the council President
David Dubinsky of the international
Ladies Garment Workers Union
sought to amend the report by stipu-
lating that suspended unions have the
right to sit in the next convention, so
that they might be inside the conven-
tion to present their case.
The amendment as adopted does not
grant that right, but President Green
gave official assurance that in the
event Of such suspensions, the sus-
pended union may have its delegates
appeal to a convention committee and
to a convention from the floor. The
committee report was passed by an
overwhelming majority.
