l94l AFL Convention
To Meet In Seattle

New Orleans, LATHE delegates
to the sixtieth convention of the
American Federation of Labor here
selected Seattle, Wash, the city in
which the 1941 convention of the
Federation will be held. In citing the
advantage Of Seattle, Delegate James
A. Taylor of the Washington State
Federation of Labor said:
"We invite you to come to our
State, and to city where the build
ing trades have had 6-hour day and
5-day week for over six years, and
many of our organizations have
brought about that short hour day;
city where the movement knows
how to cooperate and where every or
ganization in our industries works
together and brings about a condition
for the entire industry. We ask you
to come out and look at the greatest
project in the world where 10,5C0,-
600 cubic feet of concrete has been
placed in the Coulee Dam and where
we signed contract three years ago
whereby every organization on that
dam has been organized under the
American Federation of Labor"

AS a token of the esteem in which
we hold Labor's lndigestable, occa-
sionally referred to as John l.. Lewis,
it should be recorded here that before
he shed SO public tear over leaving
the CIO presidency he hoped until the
last moment to keep that job.
1t was only after a long hotel-room
session with his lieutenants Thomas
Kennedy, Van Bittner and Philip Muir
ray that he decided to yield in favor
of Philip Murray.
Murray's big job is to disentangle
Lewis from the Communist apparatus
which will be fought job, for
few of the unions pay their per capita
tax regularly, leaving CIO dependent
on Lewis willingness to continue
Mine Union payments. Last year the
miners turned some 100000 over to
the CIO treasury.
No Communist counter attacks will
hit Murray until he begins-if he
does-dislodging Stalinate officers
from the key 10 unions in defense
transportation and communication in
dustries.
And by the way, what happened to
the "aid-to-B Britain" resolution which
never found its way to the convention
floor? With the last free labor move
ment abroad scrapping for life, the
CIO militants didn't see fit even to
send it greetings.

Information On
SocioI Security

If you are looking for temporary
work during the holiday season, get
social security account number before
you set out to find job This is the
advice given by Glenn II. Pittenger,
manager Of the Youngstown field Of
fee Of the Social Security Board. Ex-
planning why this action should be
taken Mr.. Pittenger said today:
employers have learned that it
saves time and trouble for all con-
cerned if account numbers are issued
before or at the time a new worker
takes job. Then the employer can
see the card, copy the name and num-
Der exactly as they appear on it, and
be sure his records are complete be-
fore his tax return for the final quar-
ter Of this year is filed in January
1941.
MANY employers have learned that
it is a difficult matter to get account
numbers after holiday workers have
left their service, and hence are ask
ing. for social security cards when
new workers are hired. Any one who
has lost his original card should get
duplicate, not a new number" Mr..
Pittenger added.
For the convenience Of those seek
ing holiday employment and planning
to get social security cards the
Youngstown field office is open daily
from a. n. until 80 p. m. and on
Saturday from 9 a. m. until p. m. In
addition it will have representative
at itinerant Offices on the following
schedule and will receive applications
| for account numbers at each Of these
branch offices. The schedule follows:
Salem, every Tuesday-l2 noon to
4 p. m.-Post Office Building.
East Liverpool, every Tuesday-12

Steubenville, every Monday - II

Age Limits Going.
S. S. Board Reports
Demand For Skilled Work
ers Increases On National
Defense Jobs

Washington, D. c. GLNS).-As the
demand increases for skilled men on
defense jobs, age limits are disap-
pearing and the older men are com
ing into their own, says the Bureau
Of Employment Security, Social Sc
curity Board, in the first Of series
of monthly reports on changes in
employment conditions. Experience
and ability to do the job now out
weigh all other considerations. A man
Of 80 was hired the other day by an
engineering concern, according to one
report.
No General Shortage
No general shortage Of labor ap-
pears but there is an immediate de-
mand for highly skilled machinists
and tool and diemakers throughout
the country, and for loftsmen and
ship filters in ship building areas
according to the same report, which
is based on records of the state EN-
ployment Offices.
Along with the demands for skill
however, come reports Of many in
stances where employers are taking
less skilled workers than they woulc
once have considered. In such cases
the employer adjusts his operations
SO that skilled jobs are broken dowr
into less skilled parts, with a system
of promotions as the workers acquire
skill on the job. In many states
students in the vocational courses es
tablished under the national defense
program are being drawn into jobs
as rapidly as they are able to com
plete their training.
Workers More "Choosey"
AS result of the increased de
mand for their services, skilled work
ers are reported in some places to bt
unwilling to accept the wages Offered
and to be reluctant to leave home anC
family to take jobs in other commu
mites unless the financial inducemen
is considerable This is true of un
skilled workers as well as the skilled

SERViC F.

No other single agency has done
more for the development of America
than railroads. Their service is pro-
digious, their payroll enormous, their
relations to the public exemplary.
Taken as whole, railroad employees
are among the most stable and pros
porous Of Americans. Their indepen-
dent spirit and sobriety make them
admirable citizens; their magnificent
loyalty preserves our sleek fliers as
the safest, most comfortable, most
reliable, vehicles on earth; their
faithful service is one Of the chief
