Deny Industry
Migrating From
New York Sfufe
Officials Assuil Reports Thot
Labor Is Responsible
For Exodus

Albany, N. Y.-Representatives of
labor vigorously denied assertions that
industry is migrating from New York
State.
Speaking at legislative conference
on labor and industrial problems, Ju-
Illus Hochman, vice president Of the
International Ladies' Garment Work
ers' Union, assailed reports that labor
was responsible for an exodus of bus
mess.
Hochman termed as unfortunate"
an attack on labor during similar
hearing before the committee repre-
sentatives of business.
He referred to a report by Melvin
Brown, vice president Of the board of
directors of the New York Real Estate
Board, that business was leaving the
state because of constant stoppages
caused by labor over alleged minor in
fractions Of labor agreements"
"Some people have all the solutions
that is to blame it on labor" Hoch-
man said. "But reduce wages and the
worker won't have enough money to
pay rent.
Edward w. Edwards, secretary
treasurer of the State Federation of
Labor, said the exodus allegations
were grossly exaggerated"
Edwards said the federation would
cooperate in recommending measures
to curtail any migration of industry
if the committee finds such a fact to
exist.
The committee called a conference
of labor, business and industry in the
capital July % to act on the migra-
tion problem. 1t is expected to as
sist the committee draft it's report to
the 1941 state legislature.

ing are required to register their
names on the roll book.
Immediately after the ballots have
been counted by local union tellers,
the tally sheets must be sent to the
Brotherhood office in care of the Can
vassing Committee. A fine will be
imposed on any and all local unions
not complying with the full list of in

by the Army chief of ordinance or
November Is, 1917, when the country
was at the height of it's World Wal
procurement effort.
The order said industrial history
proved that reasonable hours, fail
working conditions and proper wage
scale are essential to high production
To wave aside industrial safeguards
the order declared, would be short
sighted and lead gradually toward
lowered production.
Col. Fleming asserted maximum pro-
duction today calls for maximum eff
cheney of the machine. This, he said,
usually is obtained by using relays of
workers in shifts sufficiently short to
make constantly intense effort possible.
The public's attention, he said,
should be called to the fact that the
French 4O-hour week in effect from
1886 to 1888 was "rigid limitation"
with little resemblance to our "ceil-
ing for hours" He noted also that
Germany was on an S-hour day, 49,
hour-week basis from 1884 to the start
of 1889, at which time a 60-hour-week
began in non-defense industries be-
cause Of labor shortage.
The administrator quoted from a
survey which said Inauguration of the
longer work week resulted in a rapid
decline in production, accompanied by
such an alarming increase of industrial
accidents and stoppages as to attract
the serious attention of the govern
ment authorities"

Working Hours Will Not Be Rdised
In Defense Program, President Suys

Washington, D. C.-President Roose
velt declared at press conference thai
the administration would go aheac
with it's present policy Of maintaining
standards under the Wage-Hour Act
for work on the defense program.
Mr.. Roosevelt read to reporters q
letter from Col. Philip B. Fleming
wage-hour administrator, which GOV,
cred the question of raising the cell
ing for hours, above which time and
half must be paid.
Col Fleming informed the Presi-
dent that any complaints FROM key
defense industries that the payment
of time and half for overtime was
making their operation difficult would
be brought promptly to Mr.. Roose-
velt's attention. The administrator
added that only three such complaints,
all from small establishments, had
been received.
"Were there any definite need in
certain industries for abrogation of
the time and one-half rule" Col.
Fleming wrote, nothing could keep
me from SO reporting. In my con-
facts with industry no such need has
yet been demonstrated to me-"
Describing the letter as an inter-
esting check-up by an Independent
source, the President said he had not
asked for it; that it had arrived and
that in view of it's contents the ad-
ministration's present policy would be
continued.
Col. Fleming cited an order issued

No. l Of the Women's Bureau, U. S
Department Of Labor, just off the
press.
efficient production, where women
are involved, calls for their employ
ment at jobs they can do we'll, under
safe working conditions, and with
sound labor policies" Miss Mary An
derson, the Bureaus director stated,
"Women can do many jobs as we'll as,
if not better than, men, but it is not
the aim to have women replace men.
We urge that women as we'll as men
in need of employment be given op-
portunities for work in the program
Of expanded production"
Health and safety measures for
women advocated in the report as con-
ducive to the best work and most eff
ficient output include carefully guard
ed machines, protection against indus
trial poisons, special lighting equip
ment for fine work, right kind of seats
adjustable to the worker and the job,
good plant sanitation, practical work
clothing, moderate hours of work to
prevent excessive fatigue undermining
to work and worker, and sufficient
wages to cover living essentials and
commensurate with the services rend-

fects of such standards are presented
in the report.
Examples of job requirements in re-
lation to specific occupations in the de-
fense industries for which women are
particularly fitted are outlined in the
report as follows:
1.-Care and constant alertness,
good eyesight, use of light instru-
ments (such as gauges, micrometers,
vernier calipers), with little physical
exertion. These characteristics are
needed for inspection of castings, ma
chinings, and finished parts; of rou-
tine powder analysis; Of testing cleo
trical equipment.
2. Dexterity and speed in work
permitting the individual to set her
own tempo and to sit at the job-pos-
sibly in operation of machines to fin
ish small and irregular parts, assemb-
ling delicate instruments and ma
chimes; loading shells; filling powder
bags.
g. Skill, bat little strength-re-
quired in operation of drilling and
milling machines, lathes, machines for
grinding and polishing small parts.
4.-Heavy work facilitated by the
use of lifting devices and pneumatic
chucks.
Training for jobs and employment
policies should be adjusted to women's
needs, the report recommends. "Wom-
en- should be trained for those jobs in
defense industries for which expert
ence has shown women to be fitted
and also for other new jobs suited to
their physique" it is pointed out.

With Account Given By
Four Delegates

The delegates who represented Local
Union No. 8 at the annual convention
of the Brotherhood gave a very thor
ough report at the last meeting of the

pleased and asked many questions
relative to the disposal of the resolu-
tions. Our delegates were assigned
to the following committees: Thomas
Neal, Officers Report; Larence Brown,
State of Order; Ben Jones and Harold
Van Fossen, Price List Committee.
A communication was received from
Paul Gilbert stating that he has been
confined to his home in New Castle by
illness. Brother Everett Baker is also
ill. The members of the local hope for
a speedy recovery of all members who
are sick.
The heartfelt sympathy of the local
is extended to the family and friends
of Brother Charles Gouker who passed
away on June 26 at his home in Steu-
benville. Brother Charles death was
due to pneumonia.
The shop committees have been ap-
