In accepting the service OF Girl
Scouts, Executive Director Herbert
L. Willett, jr., said the offer could
not have come at a more opportune
time. Since the Community Chest
is lending Its staff and facilities to
the Community War Fund" Mr..
Willett said, we are particularly
pressed during the ordinarily quiet
vacation period to try to carry both
jobs. The Girl Scouts are doing az
invaluable job in the detail work
that accompanies any campaign
The Girl Scouts were the first VOL
unteer group outside of the Organ
izing Committees to offer their
services.

Bill 10 Give District
Congress Delegate
Wins New BACKING
james DuhomeI, Secretor
Of Oldest Inhobitonts,
Fovors Paddock Plan
Nv WILL p, KENNEDY.

JamessF. Duhamel corresponding
secretary of the Association OF the
Oldest Inhabitants, lisa strong sup
porter of the proposal Of Represen-
tative Paddock. Republican. of Illi-
nois to have Congress give the Dis
trict an elected delegate to the
House.
Mr.. Duhamel recently wrote to
Mr.. Paddock: Il am an ofiicer in
five Washington civic organizations
and three clubs with an average
membership of 400. On all inquiries
I find none of them opposed to the
idea OF District delegate to Con-
gress."
Harry N. Stull, president Of the
Federation of Citizens Associations,
has recommended approval OF the
Paddock bill as whole, but sug-
gested three important amendments
Q q two-year residence require
ment for voters instead of one year !;
90 hteracy test for voters and
90 some provision to enable Dis
trict and Federal employees to be
candidates for the office of delegate
without running afoul OF the Hatch
Act.
Lusk Opposes Paddock Plan.
The strongest opponent who has
thus far communicated with Repre-
sentative Paddock is Rufus S. Lusk,
president of the Washington Tax
payers Association. He admitted,
however, that the Paddock proposal
would meet less opposition than a
City Council. Six letters in oppo-
sition have been received by Mr..
Paddock. five of which came yester-
day. Three based their opposition
on the claim that an elected dele
gate would not give the District
sufficient aid, and argued that the
District should have full voting rep
resentation or nothing.
Mr.. Paddock has received rs
letters in support of his bill. These
include Endorsements by the Citizens
Forum, Columbia Heights; Fort
Davis Citizens Association, Brook
land Civic Association, Marshall
Heights Civic Association, Central
Labor Union of the AFL; Ana
costa Citizens Association, and
numerous individuals including min
listers, doctors, lawyers-Francis w
Hill, jr., former president of the
District Bar Association and Miss
Mary Agnes Brown, president OF
the Women's Bar Association.
Mrs. Manly Is Supporter.
Mrs. Marie B. Manly, chairman OF
the Legislative Committee of the
District League OF Women Voters
suggested that when the emer-
gency is over and Congress can take
the time to consider the knotty
problems such representative
should prove very helpful"
Harold S. Kinner. secretary OF thu

ton, wrote: While this propose
seems very small step, it has great
possibilities for later development.

MiIkmen Meet
Tonight for
Strike Vote
Efforts Are Pushed
To Avoid Complete
Holt to Deliveries

With strike vote by 1850 milk
men scheduled for tonight, attempts
were being made today to avoid a
tie-up that may stop deliveries of
milk except to hospitals and mill
tary posts.
Milk company spokesmen said
they were awaiting a Labor Depart
ment report and recommendations.
Spokesman for the Milk Drivers
and Dairy Employees Union No. 246
had expressed the opinion earlier
that negotiations had ended be-
cause all means of reaching an
agreement had been exhausted.
Plans for Withdrawing its men,
bers" from work were made known
late yesterday by the union with the
announcement that negotiations
with employers had been broken off
after conferences with Labor De-
partment conciliators.
Union Demands Listed.
Wage increases, shorter hours
and other changes in working con-
ditions were demanded by the
drivers and other dairy workers
during the months of negotiations,
beginning the middle of May.
In a statement announcing the
break-off of negotiations, the union
charged the dairies with refusing to
make any concessions.
An officer of large dairy said
the employers had been willing to
meet all demands except the wage
increase. The employees, he said,
we're asking a horizontal raise of
SO week. At present, he said, the
workers were getting from s46 to
S6950 for a 48-hour week.
THE employers" said the union,
refused arbitration in every form
and state they will do nothing that
is not ordered specifically by some
such agency as the War Labor
Board"
This is true to an extent, an en-
ployer said, since the Labor De-
partment certified the dispute to the
War Labor Board and it is in the
hands of this group.
Deadlock Called Complete"
"The deadlock is complete" the
union announcement said, "and the
union is forced to withdraw its
members from employment in these
dairies with the exception of de-
livering milk to military service and
hospitals, ...
After these months of negotia-
tions, the employers have offered
the union nothing in the way Of
concessions, in hours, conditions or
wages. The union offered several
plaa$ Of arbitration which the dairy
lenEbyers absolutely refused. The
union offered to arbitrate by COM
fmittA4 of five-twol to be selected
Eby each party and the fifth to be
selected by the first four. Or, to
have both parties by mutual consent
select one neutral chairman"
The union said 1t also had been
willing to refer the dispute to an
arbitrator named by the chairman
of the War Labor Board, or to a
board of arbitration selected by the
United States Cancellation Service.
"Other plans of arbitration also
were suggested by the union," the
statement added, declaring:
This means that the dairy en-
ployers in this area will not nego-
tiate to a successful conclusion as
heretofore they have unless ordered
to do so by the War Labor Board or
the Office of Price Administration
The dairies issued no formal
statement.

D. {. Population Gain
And Priorities Keep
Planners Puzzled
Residential Construction
Far Behind Needs of
City Of 100, 900

The priorities squeeze on materials
for private residential construction
and the phenomenal population
growth of the Washington Metro
politaYi Area since the 1940 Census
were held accountable today for the
principal headaches" OF Federal
planners in trying to estimate fu-
ture community needs Of the war
swollen Capital.
Such matters are now engaging
the attention of the National
Capital Park and Planning Com
mission, whose members disclosed
that the approximate total OF $4,000
permits issued for private residential
units in the Metropolitan Area dur
ing the last two and half years
lag lamentably behind actual needs
OF that many permits, about 21,70t
were issued In Washington.
It was estimated the population
of the Metropolitan Area had in.
creased from a little more thar
100000 in 1910 to about 1900 ,00(
now.
Wehrly Submits Report
Max X. Wehrly, civic planner o1
the commission, made q report or
community facilities at yesterdays
commission session, but since the
picture drawn was incomplete, the
group made public only certain
phases pertaining to Residential.
construction.
Since no Official in Washington
from President Roosevelt down the
line, knows when the war will end
no member of the planning COM
mission ventured prediction OF
Washington population two or
three years hence. But Mr.. Wehrly
reported that if private industry is
allowed to go ahead" and is given
priorities on materials, 1t is reason
able to expect that contraction OF
private residential units would in
crease 40 per cent in the next year
over the record of the last two and
half years.
The commission, however, antici-
pates tremendous expansion OF
projects such as dormitories, de-
mountable housing and low-rent
dwelling. If this public housing is
included in the estimates, it was
Mr.. Wehrly's opinion, based on
careful studies, that the number OF
new residential units in the Metro.
politan Area would be increased by
100 per cent in the next year. From
that estimate, it would indicate that
public housing may be expected tc
take care of about TO per cent of the
increase in residential construction
Southeast Section Growing.
The Southeast section of the city
especially the Anacostia district
was represented as an area of tire
mendous growth" since 1910. Th'
expansion, estimated at 100 per cen
in the number of building permit
issued, took place chiefly in the are'
north of st. Elizabeth's Hospital.
Second only to the Northwest sec
/ tion, approximately 1000 permit
for residential units were issued TO
construction in the Southeast. Onl
private construction is included il
the figure The figure compared witt
1900 in the Northwest section an
$500 in the Northeast. The South

permits.

THE LETTER BOX

noe of the county boys, who
is a way in the wars, writes that
he would like to know the adj
dresses of other Dickinson coun-
tians who are also in the service.
Says he:
The Herald:
Some of the boys here in the
service get their hometown pa
pers and they often give names
ard addresses of their local boys,
now in the armed forces. | have
been wondering if there might
be some way you could obtain
the names and addresses of Dick
enson county boys now in the
armed forces and list them ir.
the Herald. I am sure Lonzo
wouldn't mind if you used his
column just one week for this
purpose. This would be a gooc.
way for the boys in the service
to find out w here their buddies
ere stationed. | believe the other
boys would appreciate this as
much as I would.
Thanking you for any consider
alton you may give the idea.
R. E. SWINDALL,
Sgt. U. S. Army Air Corps.
We should be glad to oblige
but find it impossible 20 get the
addresses. This would require
a county, wide survey as the To-
cal draft board does not have
this information. However, we
shall be glad to list names of all
boys in the service if they them
selves or relatives will send us
the information.
