The Defense Media ton Board rec
ommended today wage increases
approximating more than $1,000 .00C
year for % 500 Alabama CONNER
cial miners, most of whom have been
on strike since Monday.
The recommendation designed to
end strike affecting defense steel
production was announced here
Meanwhile word came from Seattle
Wash, that welders of newly
formed independent union had
walked out in shipyards engaged
in big defense contracts.
The Seattle walkout was called
in protest Of the A. F. L.-Seattle
Metal Trades Councils removal OF
1T welders from jobs at the Lake
Washington Shipyards at Houghton
An early check showed 1852 welders
had left three yards Welders at
Bremerton and Tacoma were re-
ported still on the job.
Other Proposals Revealed.
The Mediation Board. in acting on
the Alabama mine case. made pub
lie series of other recommended
tions in the dispute between the
c. l. O.-United Mine Workers and
the operators, including a proposal
that the operators grant the miners
a $40 vacation payment for l94l.
The miners had asked an increase
Of 40 cents day in the basic daily
wage. now $3.50. The board recon-
mended an increase of IS cents a
day, with a proviso that an addi-
tional Is cents be paid after April
/, 1912, under certain conditions.
These conditions involved a reduc-
ton in coal mining costs in Ala
bama or the possibility OF price in
creases which would boost the oper-
ators' net earnings above the level
of June. July and August of 1941
Between 35 and 40 mines were in
vo!ved in the dispute. Their shafts
normally supply most of the fuel
for Birmingham's steel mills.
Meanwhile, three st. Louis COM
panies with millions of dollars in
defense contracts today asked the
Federal Government to avert a
threatened general strike of 1000
machinists over jurisdictional dis
pute involving "a garage mechanics
at the Weld Spring INT. plant.
The appeals to various Govern
ment agencies were made by the
Mcdonnell Aircraft Corp, the
Busch -Sulzer Bros Diesel Engine
Co. and Curtiss-W Wright Airplane Co.
Lloyd Weber, A. F. l.. business
agent, has declared the machinists-
most of them on defense work-will
be called out october q unless the
dispute at the Government T. N. T.
plant is settled.
Fifty machinists struck there Oc-
tober 13 because their union and
the A. F. L. hoisting engineers both
claimed the right to bargain for the
garage mechanics. Last Monday so
machiniSts struck at the 100000 900
small arms ammunition plant here.
Neither strike halted operations.
Mr.. Weber said he had tried for
months to get some Government
agency to act in the T. N. T. plant
dispute and declared: IF any re-
sponsible agency will take some steps
to effect settlement. we'll consider
postponement of the strike dead
line "

promises to be helpful not only in bringing to light supstantial unused industrial capacity but in making it apparent to hundreds and possibly thousands of plants and corporations that they have both an op- portunty and obligation to contribute to the suc- cess of the defense program Wherever industrial leaders have met in recent weeks the thought has been expressed that many who still proceeding with business usual, would be happy if the way opened to them to do their bits.
 Many who patriotic even militant, eager to get into defense production. With many profits would gladly be subordinated to duty if advice were forthcoming to how to proceed and with what.
 Local activity of this kind is most hopeful sign Through such efforts to cooperate, the right psychological basis for industrial mobilization will be created, and have that there need no longer doubt of the nations ability to provide defense materials in great quantity.
 Without the desired information to plant and equipment the defense organization must con- tinue to operate in the dark and to guess instead of proceeding with industrial mobilization the basis of complete information

Chinese Problem

(NeW York Times
 A united China, her internal factions postponine their differences and standing together in mighty such marvels of resistance that reports of a breach between Chang Kai-sheks government and two Communist armies hitherto supporting it can only be regarded as deplorable if true.
 The quarrel turns upon two Communist de- mands. The Eighth Route Army asked to be trans ferred from its present field of operations in the impoverished northwestern provinces to the richer and more populous Yangtze Valley, largely under Japanese control arguing that it could fight there effectively. The Fourth Route Army de- manded an immediate national convention with a view to broadening the basis of government Under ordinary conditions both demands might have been granted The suspicion attaching to all Communist maneuverng, both in and out of China seems to have been responsible for their rejection. In the present dsorganzed state of Chinese communications the Communists at hand could have controlled he proposed convention and packed it to their lik ing before the Kuomntang delegates could arrive.
 As to the Yangtze, Chinese victory which wouli leave Communist forces in possession of the coun- trys richest provinces would scarcely be paaable to the government unless it were first assured that those forces put loyalty to China ahead of adherence to Moscow Chiang Kai-shek has no wish to change Japanese domination for control of Russia. Moreover, Russo-Japanese deal is still among the possibilities with which he has to reckon Thus in the East as in the West the shadow of Stan aims the prospects of defeating the aggressor.

COUNCIL FOR AMERICA

A new organization to be known as the Council for America will soon be launched to rally public senti- ment behind the Presidents foreign and defense policies.
 Leaders of the movement are prominent liberals whose aim is to bring together labor, farmer literary and similar groups into a militant organization to oppose the activities of the America First Committee and other isolationist units. The Council for America will not be a rival of the Committee for the Defense of America by Aiding the Allies, but will work along similar lines through elements not reached by it.
 The plan is to launch the new organization publicly on Lincoln's birthday with national broadcast by Mayor LsGuardia in Kansas City or some other Midwest metropolis.
 Among those interested in the new movement is Mrs. Dwight Nor TOW, mother -in-law of Colonel Charles Lindbergh.

CHANGE TO HELP

Defense Chief William S. Knudsen, with the thought in mind of mobizng for national defense the Nations entire productive capacity is asking for nationwide cooperation in comprehensive census of plant space and equipment available for pro- duction
 While Alaska has very little if anything to offer in this respect it would be well for all of even these of us far from the center of the defense effort to give thought to what we can do to help
 Obviously the information sought is essential to sound defense planning from this time forth It is unhappy commentary on the cumbersomeness Of this Nations operations that it sets out seven full months after the defense program undertaken to ascertain the facts of plant space and equipment available for the production of defense materials.
 The information to be assembled this week will provide the answer, in large part at least, to the question of the extent to which may safely rely for defense production existing capacity, and the extent to which additional capacity, particularly in bottle-neck industries will have to be provided
 We hope that the results of the census will bear out the judgment of leaders in major industrial States that a large margin of capacity either is available for defense production or can be made available by switching from n-essental to defense materials. At time when skilled labor is so inn perauvely demanded for direct defense production, and when steps being taken to direct essential raw materials into defense industries it is matter of the greatest importance that plant capacity be expanded only where absolutely necessary
 For many weeks controversy has been raging the ability of the steel industry to meet at the time the requirements of defense and of other consumers as well. finding by what purports to be committee of experts holds that the capacity for steel production needs to be increased by from G., 100000 to 10000000 tons
 The data to be assembled this week to capaci- ty in all defense industries will probably throw light on this question In any event, it should be borne in mind that such expansion of steel capacity would involve money expenditures of close to billion would greatly increase the demand for many materials, steel among them, and also for skilled workmen desperately needed true national defense projects

YOUNG SQUIRT

There was a lot of gay reminiscing at the gathering of the Roosevelt clan for the inaugural ceremonies, and one of the best stories was told by handsome Franklin D. Roosevelt, Jr., who did his first solo campaign ing last year and is very proud of it.
 During the 1896 contest, he re- lated, while accompanying his father on his Western electioneering tour, it was young Franklin's particular job to appear on the back platform to greet the crowds that assembled at small town stops late at night in the hope of seeing the President. One night Franklin was routed out of bed to say a few words to a gath ering of farms and ranchers at an isolated Montana way stop
 Bundled iii his pathrobe. he was in the midst of a polite expression of regret that his father was unable to appear when an elderly woman, sit ting in a horse drawn buggy, piped up in a loud voice:
 Say, who is that young squirt up there? l rode 38 miles to see the President of the United States

 Heart and Home: Women art under the most promising sway today which should be fortunate for both love affairs and business interests. It is lucky date fol seeking positions. Girls may ex- pect the evolution of romance while this configuration prevails. It is a day when charms register upon the masculine mind which is sus- ceptible under this rule of the stars.

Mines and mining are to be of major concern in the coming spring and summer when there will be a general interest in de- veloping natural resources n working toward economic indepen- dence.
 National Issues: Perils from fifth columnists and those who enjoy the blessings of democracy while they nourish disloyalty will be seri- ous at this time New methods of organizing subversive forces are proving increasingly successful. In Washington, D. C., secret agents of enemy powers will be extremely active, despite government safe guards. Men and women in high places will be affected by propa- ganda presented in clever disguises. A newspaper correspondent will un- cover amazing treachery.
 International Affairs: Many as- trologers declare that the totali- tarian leaders have reached the peak of their power However, the stars indicate that the climax Of the second World War will not be reached before 1943. It is be- lieved by the seers that we are all ready involved in the terrible strug- gle which actually has, as part of the dictators' plans, the United States as a final goal. Our thor ough preparedness will prevent all major ambitions of our enemies from being realized

CRACKING PEACE FRONT

Meanwhile, the isolationiSt front of the strongly pacifistic Women s International League for Peace and Freedom is cracking.
 Miss Emily Balch, one of the re- vered founders of the organization has rendered her resignation from the executive board because she dis approves of the anti British aid stand of Miss Dorothy Detzer, sec retary of the league and one of the most effective lobbyists in Wash ington. Miss Balch strongly favors "all-out' aid to Britain.
 Miss Balch is not the only league leader who is up in arms over Miss Detzer's views and her undercover brain-trusting of the Washington isolationists. Eastern, Southern and Far Western branches also have voiced sharp opposition, and the in side word is that a showdown on foreign policy will soon be forced within the organization. #

 NOTE: Naval reports indicate that the Japanese are shying away from the idea of invading the Dutch East Indies, despite Nazi urging. One deterrent has been the strong de- lenses of the Dutch. Another has been significant U. s. naval moves particularly storing large supply of torpedo tubes in Hongkong, keep ing a large flotilla of submarines at Manila, and concentrating the fleet at Hawaii instead Of California.
