Presidents William Green OF

labor's record in radio addresses

I'VE need no longer pledge

Put War First,
Urges in
Labor Day Talk
UAW-CIO President
Asks Subordination
Of All Group Interests

A demand that all groups
subordinate their every interest
to the sole purpose of winning the
war was made today by r. j.
Thomas, president of the JAW
CIO, in a nationwide Labor Day
radio broadcast.
Labor has no axes to grind In
our country" Thomas said
Labor speaks for the plain peO-
pie of our country. for the men
and women who work, and for
the middle classes.
Labor does not desire the
destruction of ownership or man
agement. Labor demands only
that all groups subordinate their
interests to the sole purpose Of
winning the war"
Thomas warned that continued
labor batting will injure the pros
poets OF the United Nations win
ming the war.
'Tf the attacks on labor sue
ceed," he said. 'if American
labor organizations are reduced
10 impotence, their influence
destroyed. we will have taken a
long step toward losing the
war"
Thomas also reiterated his de-
mand that labor be given a voice
on the War Production Board.

OF NATIONS CITIES
 SPENDING MORE
By THOMAS LARNER United Press Stan COrrespOndent)

Chicago, Aug. 12 (UP)-Wartime budget increases in 1942 have in creased the cost of government in two-thirds of the nations cities, but new sources of income have not kept pace with the rising costs, accord ing to a survey by the International City Managers Association.
 The survey, conducted in 185 cities in 32' states, reveals that 62 per cent of the cities will spend more this year than in 1941, 30 per cent will spend less and 8 per cent will spend the same.
 Cities engaged in heavy war pro- duction, the report said, show on increase in population from II to 20 per cent and anticipate that the rising population may boost reven- ures from water and electric utili- ties.
 Cut Relief Funds
 Increased expenditures in more than one-third of the cities were mainly for higher wages and the expansion of activities to meet the demands of additional population.
 Among 34 cities over 25,000 re- porting population increases were Dayton, O.; Columbus, Ga.; Fort Wirth and Amarillo, Tex; Glendale ues from water and electric utili- tady, N. Y.
 While cities reporting in the sur vey are forced to increase expen-

spending, street maintenance. build- ing inspection, parks and recreation.
 Dallas, Tex, according to the sur- vey, is eliminating construction &C., tivities and saving $2.O00 on street lighting under the war saving time. The city has set up reserve fund of $130O00 in anticipation of any emergency.
 The survey declared that four cities over 100000 are spending less this year than last-Dallas. Miami. Knoxville and Yonkers, N. Y. Other cities reducing costs are Bakersfield and Pasadena, Cal; Fort Collins, Col; Coral Gables, Fla; Roanoke, Va; and Kenosha, Wis.
 Of 103 cities raising their budgets this year, 75 reported they did not anticipate a reduction in municipal revenue from taxes, but 70 of them look for reductions in nontax reven- ues. The latter include reductions in State gas and motor vehicle I- cense taxes, parking meter revenues, building permit fees and business license fees.
 The cities whose 1942 expendi- lures are at 1941 levels are all under 25,000 population.
