AFL And CIO Pledge End
To Jurisdictionul Strikes
In State Of Maryland

Annapolis. Md. GLNS).-Maryland
union labor has pledged an end 10
iursdictional strikes for the wars
duration.
Gov. OCOnOr said the agreement be-
tween the AFL and CIO was reached
at meeting of the Labor Victory
Board. The amity proposal was drafted
at a meeting of the board attended by
HE Governor, Royden A. Blunt, 'Balti-
more area war manpower director, and
other members.
Board members agreed to serve as
an arbitrary board TO attempt solution
of any juriSdictional disputes which
might arise despite the agreement. The
Governor said he believed any such
problems could be properly arbitrated
by the board since there would be
union, not mana cement, troubles at the
core" The board included three AFL
and three CID representatives.
Gov. O'COnOr, who is chairman of
the board, said that in the event mem
berS Of AL unions were transferred
by the ManpOwer Commission TO plants
dominated by CIO unions, they would
not be required TO join the CIO unions.
The reverse will also hold true under
the agreement, he said.

civilian worker. Some attempt to Inea-
sure the real value Of the pay and
allowances of the serving soldier in
relation to civilian wages has been
made In a Government White Paper,
published in anticipation Of an impend-
ing parliamentary debate on the pro-
pOsal to increase service pay.
1t is pointed out in the Government
memorandum that a direct and imme-
date comparison Of pay between the
soldier and the civilian is impossible,
because the civilian worker commonly
receives the whole of his earnings in
cash, whereas the soldier is "all
found that is, he receives large part
of his remuneration in kind, by way of
clothing, food and accommodation.
Moreover, the civilian workers
earnings are related to the job he does
and the hours Of work. They do not
take account of such factors as mar
riage, whereas the soldiers earnings
make no differentiation for long or
short hours of duty. But they do take
account of the soldiers personal do.

general rule do not enjoy.
No Income Tax On Allowances
But perhaps the most important
difference emphasized is the incident
of income tax In civilian life "a single
man is liable to tax at present if his
weekly earnings exceed about G2.2s.6d.
a married man about So, and a married
man with one child about Ga week
A soldier on the other hand is taxed
only on his pay and not on either the
allowances he receives in cash or in
kind, or on those received by his family
or dependents.
The result is that the serving soldier
can often enjoy real income sub
Stantially in excess of the taX-bea ring
income of the civilian worker indicated
above. For instance, the married civil
ian is liable to tax on earnings exceed

DIM-OUT
BY RUTH TAYLOR

Those who live in perpetual dark
ness develop acuter perception in other
senses. We who are living in dimmed
out cities and towns are developing an
acuter perception, too.
When the little street lamps blink
out, we draw together in closer com
panionship. in a realization Of our de-
pendence one upon the other. our
sense Of neighboriness becomes more
acute.
When I come up into the darkened

Our manner Of living. too, has been
dirnmed out by war. Those things We
though essential. for which We have
fought, are put aside. We are already
restricted in many Of our liberties and
we know that before long, we viii have
to dim ont other privileges.

customed 10 the darkened streets, the

been taken from lis, We have learned
to use the senSes Of our heart and
minds.
Only in material Things does the
dim-out prevail. Our faith is not
dimmed out Our spirit is not dimmed
out. We know that it is up 10 each and
every one Of us TO make this dim-Out

and our work. TO turn the lights on

London. - Active interest in Trade
Unionism is by no means confined to
the industrially employed workers. With
the good will Of the military authori-
ties trade uniOnists have been per-
mitted to visit the troops and talk to
them about Trade Union principles and
labor questions generally. There are
more educational activities going on in
our citizen army than is generally
realized and this development of Trade

the guidance of the Army's Education
Officers was new even to me. ! heard
of it first from Councillor William Ell
ger, who is general secretary of the
Scottish Tue. He had just finished
tour among the troops in the North
Fin the course of which he had ad-
dressed % meetings, attendance at
which varied from 20 soldiers to over
a thousand.
Councillor Elger told me that at all
his meetings, which were arranged by
education authorities under the Scot

was the general practice, too, for at
least one f the higher officers to be
present. Councillor Elger adopted the
| technique Of One-man brain trust
rather than pursue the orthodox prac-
tice of making a set speech followed
by questions.
Prior to his visit to particular
camp it was arranged that officers
commanding units should be advised
and arrangements made to let the men
know that they could ask questions.
They were invited to put their ques-
tions down in writing and these were
handed to Councillor Elger on his ar
rival. Supplementary questions, of
lasted from three-quarters of an hour
to an hour and three-quarters.
Questions collected in this way
covered very wide field and showed
clearly what problems engaged the at
tention of our citizen soldiers. Here are
a few typical questions:
Why is the cost of living so high
and soldiers dependent allowances SO
low?
Why is soldiers pay so much lower
than civilians?
Why are wages high during war and
low during peace?
Are the war workers really making
any financial sacrifices such as the ma
jority of men and women in the serv-
ices are?
What practical steps are being taken
to ensure the welfare of the serving
soldier after the war?
This cross-section of the soldiers
mind leaves out many questions the
serving soldier asks about conditions OF
service affecting himself and his fam
lily.
Civilian Wages and Service Pay
Many of these questions reveal the
intense interest of the serving soldier
in the comparison between his pay and
allowances and the earnings of the

Present Stute Laws
Slow Recruitment
For War Labor Jobs
Urges Repeal OF Settlement
Laws For The Durd-
ton Of War

Chicago (LNS). - Present state
settlement laws, by their lack Of uni
formity, can seriously hamper the vol
untary migration Of industrial and
agricultural manpower TO localities
where it is needed most for the war
effort.
Solution Of the problem, the Ameri
here, would be to make settlement re-
qurements uniform, repeal them al
together or suspend them for the dura
ton of the war.
Rhode Island Only Exception
All states except one-Rhode Island
how have laws which require per
sons TO be legal residents before they
become eligible for public assistance Of
any kind including relief. The require
mentS vary in the different states from
six months TO five years. Loss Of settle
ment usually is specified on the same
basis.
As result Of the lack of uniformity,
families receiving relief in q state
which considers them non-residents
after six months absence may hesitate
to mOye to a state requiring two years
residence before settlement is granted,
even though jobs may be available
there which would make them self
supporting They are aware that if
they should become destitute in the
second state after the first six months
of living there but before two years
have passed, they could not secure
even temporary financial aid from
either state
Invalid Laws in Effect
In Rhode Island alone Of the IS
states revised public assistance act,
passed this year, makes eligible for
public assistance any person in need,
regardless of his legal residence. Pre-
viOusly five years residence was re-
quired for settlement in this state.
| Besides the settlement laws, 81
states still have statutes imposing a
penalty for bringing destitute persons
into the state, the association said. The
| L. S. Supreme Court last November
| declared such a statute in California
! unconstitutional, and since that time
the attorney general of New Hamp
shire has given the opinion that d Simi
lar law in his state also is a violation
of the constitution.
