$500, 900, 900 FOR DEFENSE HOUSING
URGED BY AFL EXECUTIVE COUNCIL

fense housing is no less vital than an
adequate supply of aluminium, of cleo
trio power or of machine tools. De-
fense production taxes the full ener-
gies and skill of the worker When
man works a full shift and over
time on shipbuilding or aircraft as
sembly or on construction job, he
puts into his job all he has got. When
he comes home he is dog-tired and
needs proper rest in order to be fresh
and alert for the next days work.
That is why it is necessary to pro-
vide adequate, healthful, comfortable
housing facilities for him and his
family.
"There is so great a shortage of
even moderately decent housing for
defense workers that a program of
10000 new units is the irreducible
minimum. In order to construct these
homes, Government financing is nee
essary. That is recognized and ad-
mitted AS long as the Government
is going to proceed to do this job it
should do it right. That is why the
Executive Council again strongly rec
ommends that Congress provide 600
million dollar appropriation for this
INDISPENSABLE program"
The potters herald. [volume] (East Liverpool, Ohio) 1899-1982, 1941-08-21

Chicago, Ill.-The Executive Coun-
Gil of the American Federation of
Labor, in session here, advocated a
5000 100000 program for new hous-
ing to take care of workers in de-
fense areas. Congress is now con-
sidering a bill appropriating $780,
100000 for the purpose, but the
Executive Council said this amount
is Tar too small to meet existing de-
plorable housing conditions.
Through nationwide network of
local housing committees" the Ex-
ecutive Councils statement said, "the
American Federation of Labor has
made thorough canvass of the hous-
ing facilities afforded defense work
ers. This survey reveals shocking con-
ditions. In many communities two
and three families are bunking to-
gether in one home At the site of
some defense projects no homes at
all are available to the workers. They
live in tents, shacks, over-crowded
boarding houses and trailer camps.
There are even instances of workers
sleeping in their clothes in the parks
because no shelter had been provided
for them.

Complaint During It's
Chicuqo Session

Chicago, Ill. QLNS).-The Com
mercial Telegraphers' Union has reg
istered protest with the Executive
Council Of the American Federation
of Labor, alleging invasion of its
jurisdiction by the A. F. of l.. through
federal labor unions chartered by the
American Federation of Labor, "and
against raids on established CTU
locals of Western Union employees by
these federal labor unions with the
full knowledge, consent and encour-
agement of the American Federation
of Labor"
"Protests that the jurisdiction of
CTU locals in Western Union is be-
ing encroached upon have been made
to President Green repeatedly during
the past several months" says the
C. T. U. complaint. "Full details of
the location, status and strength of

Employees have been furnished on
many occasions to President Green

"Some of the groups to whom fed

show conclusively that Western Unio,

Wi||kie, Back in u. s.,
Sees Aid 10 Britain
As Step for Peace
Says If Help Is Not Given,
America May Become
Involved in War

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Feb. 10-Wendell l.,
Willkie is back from England, still
unchanged in his conviction that
peace for America lies in aiding the
embattled British Empire.
IF we do give aid to Britain, we
are likely to stay out of war" he
said yesterday, while II we do not
give aid to Britain, we shall probably
become involved in war"
The 1910 Republican presidential
candidate stepped off the Dixie
Clipper l8 days after leaving here
for "see-for- myself" tour of Eng
land and Fire.
He plans to present his full con-
clusions to the Senate Foreign Re-
lations Committee tomorrow as 1t
nears the end of its hearings on the
House-passed lease-lend bill.
Views on Assistance Modified"
An advocate of the measure, with
certain amendments. even before his
trip, Mr.. Willkie declared that what
he saw and learned abroad had
modified" his views on how to assist
England, and that he would disclose
them in Washington.
He said, however, that on his
survey he had heard no talk at
all in Britain of either expecting,
anticipating, or suggesting that the
United States become an active ally
as far as war Is concerned.
What the British desire from
U.s." he asserted, lis not men. but
materials and equipment
In a statement issued after an
interview at La Guardla Airport
Marine Terminal. where the Clipper
landed after flight from LISBON
via Africa, Trinidad and Puerto
Rico. he summed up his opinion on
the British-aid question thusly:
British Declared United.
IT have been much interested
since my return in reading press
dispatches concerning discussions
about aid to Britain. Apparently
this issue is being drawn by some on
the basis of war. or no war. In
other words. the opponents of aid to
Britain are saying that If the
United States gives aid to Britain,
we may become involved In war,
while if we do not give aid to Brit
ain, we can remain at peace"
He declared a British collapse
would make the danger of Amer
ican involvement in war very great.
The British people" he reported,
ARE united as I did not believe 1t
was possible for a whole people to
be united in a common purpose TO
survive.
The free people of the United
States should be prayerfully thank
full that they do not have to live
as the free people OF Britain are
compelled to live. with sleepless
nights of apprehension and days Of
fear as to what may happen on the
morrow"

There is not couple in Wash

charitable institutions than Uncle

to the best interests of Washington.
The list of organizations which
they have founded or assisted, said
Mr.. CafritZ, includes the Community
Chest, the Jewish Social Service
