the world will be called upon to meet
a most severe test" he said.
To prepare for the absorption of
millions of workers now engaged in
defense industries, as we'll as the re-
lease of those in actual military serv-
ice, Mr.. Green advocated that a
survey be made and plans prepared
for huge public works program.
Cali of this will call for the ex-
penditure of large sums of money" he
said. Cali of this character of
planning should be formulated and
made ready so that the economic
needs of the nation should be met in
as large a way as possible. 1t will be
far better for the nation to provide
employment for the millions who will
be forced out of defense production
industries rather than to supply re-
lief to unemployed and those de-
pendent upon them as we were forced
to do during the previous periods of
economic distress"
Mr.. Green warned that labor would
suffer as much, if not more, than cap
ital should some form of Communism,
Fascism or Nazism supp!ant our pres
ent economic system, and added:

0rnburn Urges Protests To Senofe
Against Measures ShockIinq Labor

Washington, D. C.-Assailing anti
strike legislation, l. M. Ornburn, Sec
of the Union Label
Trades Department, called on all trade
unionists to protest against these
measures to their Senators. In a ma
tionally broadcast speech, he said:
There is now measure before the
Senate which provides for the shack
ling of American workers through So
called anti-strike laws. This bill
would establish conditions like those
in Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy. 1t
is un-American to deprive workers Of
their right to quit work, either indi-
vidually or collectively. This bill is
illegal according to our present laws
and invalid according to the United
States Constitution which protects
citizens against involuntary servitude
or slavery.
"The same people who, just few
years ago, were vociferously asking US
to defend the Constitution are now
doing everything within their power
to destroy the rights of citizens under
that same United States Constitution.

Won And cI0 Group Make Joint PIea
For Labor Peace To Aid u. s. Defense

New York City-Matthew Woll,
vice president of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor, joined with officers
of Sidney Hillman's Amalgamated
Clothing Workers in calling for i'm
mediate steps to reunite the A. F. Of
L. and the G. I. O.
The occasion was the presentation
by the New York joint board of the
Amalgamated of a check for 81 1000
representing the final installment in a
contribution by the union of $4,000
to the American Labor Committee to
Aid British Labor, of which Mr.. Woll
is chairman. William Green, presi-
dent of the A. F. Of L., is honorary
chairman Of the committee, and most
of its principal officers are leaders Of
A. r. Of L. unions. -.

calls for peace in labor's ranks be-

"Now, 1 am going to make an i'm
portant appeal to all citizens who be-
lieve in the constitutional rights of all
American workers. l ask you to i'm
mediately write to your two United
States Senators, from your own State,
all of whom are now in Washington,
D. c., and urge them to vote against
all proposed anti-labor union bills.
Please inform your servants in Con-
gress that workers have more votes
than a few unfair employers and
cheap politicians who are advocating
this drastic legislation. This is still a
representative form of government,
known as republic, and you have a
perfect right to petition your repre-
sentatives. Tell them that you are
keeping a close tab on their records.
Let them know that if they vote to
enslave American workers that on the
next election day you will vote to keep
them at home. If your members Of
Congress vote for laws that will
shackle labor, replace them with men
who will uphold American freedom
and democracv."

bers of the American Federation of

program, William Green, president of

convention here.
eve are Americans first and men,
bers of our union second" he de-
clared.
Emphasizing throughout his ad-
dress, which was broadcast over a
nationwide network of the Mutual
system, the stake which labor and
capital have in the preservation of
the system of free enterprise, Mr..
Green called for a united stand of
capital, labor management and labor
in support of the defense program.
The labor leader stressed the urgent
need for preparatory steps to be taken
now to cushion the tremendous and
inevitable shock to our economic sys-
tenn which he said would follow the
present emergency.

terprise and private ownership. in all

Labor Triumphs As House Defeats
Wage Freezing In Price Control Bill

tempts by enemies of labor to insert
wage ceilings in the bill.
This fight will have to be renewed
in the Senate where further attempts
to hamstring labor may be expected.
However, the resounding defeat of the
anti-labor forces in the House on this
issue indicates clearly that a final
victory for the workers is assured.
One Of the most reprehensible fea-
lures Of the drive to impose wage
ceilings was the argument made by
the sponsors of such action that labor
should be punished because of strikes
in defense industries. The fact that
more than 80 per cent of American
workers have not participated in de-
fense strikes but have given the high
est type of service day-in and day-out
was, as usual, ignored by labor's ene-
mics.
The vote on wage freezing was a
significant test of labor's strength in
Congress and proved once more that

Conferees To Meet Monday
Morning At Nine
O'clock
WELLS HITS REQUEST
States Cost Of Living Has
Not Included The Re-
quired Amount

The reopening Of the wage agree
ment Tuesday in New York's Hotel
Astor will take place under condi-
tions unforeseen two weeks ago when
the National Brotherhood of Operative
Potters' request for the conference
was granted by the United States
Potters' Association.
The nation is suddenly at war-a war
that started in Europe two years ago
and has been the cause behind the
steady rise in the cost Of living which
prompted many affiliated locals Of the
Brotherhood to petition the Executive
Board to ask for a reopening of the
present pact signed last February in
New York.
President James NJ. Duffy will call
the first pre-conference meeting to
order at 9 o'clock Monday morning at
the Plymouth Hotel where the con-
ferees will be quartered.
At a two-day meeting Of the USPA
held in Cleveland, Joseph NJ. Wells,
Labor Board chairman and co-chair-
man of the coming conference with
Mr.. Duffy, told the members Of his
group that the cost of living had not
risen to a point where a revision Of
the present wage scale was necessary.
He also complained of various ell
legal work stoppages" in the past and
advocated a penalty clause in the
contract to cover such outbreaks"
The conferees may find New York
more war conscious than the unruffled
Middle-West. Two false air alarms
have tended to make the metropolis a
little jittery, but the potters will un-
doubtedly also find business, going on
very much as usual.
