BUFFALO, Buffalo worker
got himself a job in a war factory,
anxious to do his bit on the produc-
tons front to lick the Axis. The
first day he went to work he did
IA of the operations assigned to
him. The next day he told the fore
man that he could easily do 40 of
these operations.

piled, you'll be canned, and in a

Typical Case
This case, Regional Manpower

Paylncrease For
Concrete Drivers
OK'ed By WLB

The War Labor Board has auth
orized the 10 cents an hour in
crease won by the drivers of the
ready-mix trucks of the Bridgeport
Concrete Co. in the settlement of
prolonged labor dispute on Oct.
2.
The order of the Board released
back pay due to the workers, but
withheld from them while the COM
pany sought a W.L.B. decision on
their right to pay it in view of the
fact that the Economic Sterilization
order regulates wages. This was stat
ed by John J. Allen, secretary-treas-
urer of Transfers Local No. 443.
The W.L.B. has stated that the
case need not have come to it for
approval since the wage agreement
was completed before the Economic
Sterilization order went into effect
on Oct. 3.

The ship was constructed by
American Federation of Labor

tracts with all Kaiser enterprises.
The Peary is expected to be fully
QUILTED and delivered to the Mari
time Commission within another three
days-which constitutes another and
even more significant record.
Thus for the first time in American
shlpbiulding history a cargo ship of
this size has been built and will be
ready for delivery in a total elapsed
time of eight days or less.
The previous record for a SINH
lar ship was ten days eleven hours
and 'fifty-five minutes from keel
laying to launching, and an addi-
tional three days, twelve and half
hours for Quitting both set by

Our primary purpose has been the

gestions and time-saving inventions

try them on one hull and see what

THIS WEEK WE WELCOME
Local No. 40, Sheet Metal Workers.
which has subscribed to THE
UNION TIMES for its entire mem.
bership. Local 40 covers all of
Connecticut with the exception of
Fairfield County. We are proud to
have this union with us!
SPEAKING OF Local No. 40
brings to mind one important as
pect of the manpower problem. 1t
seems that more than half of Con-
necticut's building trades workers
are employed in cities where they
don't reside. This is true of many
trades, not just the building trades.
George A. Joslyn, business manager
of the Sheet Metal Workers, esti-
mates that 67H per cent of his
New Haven members have to go
to Waterbury, Hartford, Meriden.
Wallingford, Naugatuck, and New
London for employment.
THE TOTAL number at one
time sOas higher, but some of the
Ne,U HaUeners have moved to the
cities sCher they sOOrk. In this
case it can't be argued that the
men sOOrk in cities because the pay
is higher. The Sheet Metal ,UOrE-
ers haze standard contract, and
the rate is the same throughout its
Jurisdiction. One reason is that
local contractors send their men to
Out-Of-tOsOn jobs; another, OF
course, is that there isn't enough
,0Ork in NesO Haven.
THE FACT remains, however,
that if you 60 to the railroad sta
ton any morning and see the num-
bers leaving for work i'm other
cities; and those coming from other
cities to work i'm New Haven, you
will realize the waste involved. Add
to this those who drive and the
waste increases. And the man who
works at fixed rates, like the Sheet
Metal Worker, takes a cut when he
travels out of town for employ.

Profit Cuts

Daniel Tobiin
Tea1msters' President Says
Drive For Profits Beclouds
Wage Issue

Observation-Disclosures ]. Tob-
i'm, president of the International
Brotherhood of Transfers, said
that American workers would talk
less about wages if American in
dustrialists cared less about profits.
Testifying before the manpower
hearings of the Senate Pepper
Committee, Tobin pointed to Brit
ish treatment of war profits as
model for the u. S. A. Only 80
persons i'm England now receive
more than $4,000 a year after
taxes as contrasted with 1000 who
made that much before the war.
eff those policies were applied here,
the Transfers chief said, ut would
clear up a great deal of this argu-
ment about wages"
Tobin told the committee he favored
centralized control of the manpower
setup, but opposed compulsory meas
ures, until all voluntary moves have
been tried. He said CONSUMPTION of
labor could not be carried out equita-
bly, without a large-scale wage adj
justment program.
An elevator operator earning $50
a week in New York, Tobin said,
should not be forced to work in a
southern textile mill for half that
wage.

Morgenthau Tells
How Labor Helps

WASHINGTON.-A rather shy
man sat behind massive desk in a
big sunny room facing a group of
labor editors.
AS he talked about the war, how
ever, he lost his shyness.
Il have always understood that
labor knew what the war was all
about" he said.
Again, he said, II have always de-
pended greatly on labor for support
for any proposal from this depart
ment.
He even said, smiling ruefully, II
have often thought, if I have any
following anywhere-mind you, | said
fit is with organized labor"
These words came from the man
whose job it is to finance the war,
Sec. of the Treasury Henry Nor
genthau.
First Conference
He made them during the course
of the first press conference held ex-
clusively for the labor press by a
cabinet officer.
At the outset he said that the con-
ference was just for background, and
that he did not want to be quoted.
He would be glad to answer ques-
tons, he said later. Rubin Levin, of
Labor, organ of the Railway Brother
hood, then said:
"Mr. Secretary, you made some
very good remarks about labor. Can t
we quote any of them?"
eyes," agreed Morgenthau. 81 don't
remember what said, but whatever l
said about labor / meant. | don't say
it just because you people are here.
I never worried about labor where
the war bond drive was concerned"
What Labor Is Doing
AT present 23,OOO,OOO workers
are buying bonds at an average of
$50 of their pay. In November this
will mean more than $500, OOO, 600
for the month. Next month 3d.
100000 workers are expected to
put 1919 of their pay into bonds.
The real tribute to labor. however,
came in the very fact Of the Secre-
tary's calling in labor reporters, not
for the social amenities, or so they
could look at his pretty stenographer,
although they apparently enjoyed both,
but for a deadly serious talk.
1t was no pep talk in which he
urged that the workers must make
greater sacrifices. He seemed to ac-
cept the fact that they were doing
pretty well and would do more
without presenting any problem.
Morgenthau colored when one
editor asked i'm booming voice,
tsNow what about these reports you
hear of workers buying bonds be-
cause the unions make them, and
their cashing them i'm 90 days?"
''Those reports said the Secre-
tary in steely voice, fare false.
They are propaganda. Amy redemp-
lions have been trivial. checked it
again for September, the last in

Morris has been purchasing Saw
ings Bank Insurance from a bank
in Massachusetts, where he was a
resident, since 1923. He will spOn-
sOr move in the Hartford C.L.U.
to induce local banks to sponsor
the plan in order that workers may
be able to buy such insurance at
home. Under the law, banks handle
the insurance on a~nOn-prOft basis.

There are four savings banks in
Hartford, the insurance CAPITAL of
the world. The largest of these
banks is the Hartford Society for
Savings. With $87, 100000 in as
sets and los, 900 accounts, it is the
largest savings bank in the state
OF Connecticut. Its board of trus-
tees include high ranking officials
of the largest insurance companies.
among them L. Edmond Zacher.

Important figures in the insur-
ance companies are on the boards
of the Mechanics Savings Bank.
the State Savings, and the Dime
Savings Banks, all of Hartford.
Although arrangements of the four
Hartford Savings Banks are aware
of the growing demand for S.B.L.I.
and might be reluctant to take the
matter up with their trustees who are
officials of the insurance companies
which find in the cash-and-carry low
cost Savings Bank plan a competitor,
Mr.. Royston expressed the opinion
that the trustees might favor the plan
If they knew of the demand for it
among the low income groups who do
not purchase ordinary insurance, the
type sold by most Hartford companies.

Kaiser Defended
By Pres. Green

WASHINGTON. -A.FL. Presi-

the National Labor Relations Boards
action in issuing a complaint against
three Henry J. Kaiser shipyards "is
the outstanding Axis victory of the
month"
Kaiser's fairness to employees and
their trade unions and 1abor-manage-
ment cooperation in the Kaiser ship
yards, he said, have resulted in rec
ord-breaking production, the kind of
production America needs to win this
war;"
"Now the N.LR.B. accuses Mr..
Kaiser of unfair labor practices and
threatens to destroy as fine relation
ship between employer and emp1oye
as exists anywhere in the world :"

Labor Peace Farley
Is Set For December

A. F. of L. and CLIO. committees
will resume efforts to heal the breach
in labor's ranks during the first week
in December.
President Harry C. Bates of the
Bricklayers, chairman of the A. F. of
L. committee, and Philip Murray,
chief of the CLIO. peacemakers, agreed
upon that week, but left the exact day
to later determination.
Leaders on both sides declared that
they are none too optimistic that any
quick agreement can be reached be-
cause of jurisdictional differences that
have become intensified during the
seven years of division.
