parently nipped Saturday when
some 80 representatives of the or
Iganization reaffirmed allegiance 10
the parent union,
AT the same time David Craig

In their positions the council
named Charles Casebeer OF Ford

Angry With Union

Office employees of the JAW
Go are angry with their union,
Local 26, United Office and Pro-
fessional Workers of America
(CIO).
Chief grievance of the boys and
girls who punch typewriters and
keep files in JAW Offices is that
Local 20 doesn't do anything for
them.
A move is now underway to get
the 300 JAW employees to with
draw from Local 20 and seek a
separate charter from the inter-
national UOPWA.
Agitation for a separate local
stems from Ford Local 600. where
an agreement was recently nego-
tiated. -.
\ Despite several appeals for aid
made TO Jerome Shore, regional
director of the AOPWA, the girls
finally. went ahead on their own
accord and secured a contract pro-
viding for a minimum wage OF $50
weekly.
Another reason is that the dele
gates to the annual convention
disregarded instructions OF the
local membership and voted dues
increase and assessment.

Ners Of Labor:

On Organizers
AT Bomber Plant

Reports n; Believed
Result Of Probe Here
NerS of Labor:
BY JACK CRELLIN
Detroit Times labor Editor

The UAW-CIO is having trouble
Two weeks ago leaders OF the
union protested 10 the war depart
ment the dismissal OF two men,
bers by 1t. Col. George +. Strong,
chief plant protection officer for
the central air corps procurement
area. for their alleged participation
in a showdown strike.
Now, a JAW spokesman says.
the army has banned union organ
izers from the vicinity of the
Glenn L. Martin bomber plant in
Baltimore, where the JAW is
planning 10 ask an NLRB election.
So far the army has advanced
no reason for the action.
However, a partial explanation
may be contained in the fact that
a few weeks ago the army intelli-
gence division conducted a thor
ough investigation here into, the
background OF one Of the union s
organizers, whose actions at times
during the past few years they
believed questionable.
That person is one of the leaders
in the organizational drive at the
Martin plant.

Total Of Motorists VISITING
Mount Vernon Drops IS Pct

The number Of motorists visiting
historic Mount Vernon has de-
creased approximately rs per cent
in the last two months as COM
pared with last years attendance
figures, according to Supt. Charles
c. Wall.
This represents a drop from about
100000 to $4,000 visitors monthly
because Of gasoline and tire ra-
tioning, Mr.. Wall said. The figures
do not include men in uniform, who
are admitted free OF charge.
Even on Sundays. when the big
gest crowds usually are admitted
to the shrine. the attendance has
shrunk from an average of $4,000
each Sunday during 1941 to ap-
proximately 5000 this year, he de-
clared.
"The attendance began going
down gradually since the first of
the year." Mr.. Wall explained.
Boat travel to Mount Vernon,
however, has remained about the
same as last year, he said. Be-
tween 10000 and $4,000 visitors
coming by boat were admitted dur
ing the summer of 1941 and Mr.
Wall said he anticipated about
the same" number this summer.
Despite the fact that admission
fees constitute the only source of
revenue for Mount Vernon, Mr..
Wall emphasized that officials do
not contemplate closing the shrine.

Steel Maker Influence
In WPB Should Be
CUT, Truman Says
Committee Would Revise
Distribution System
With Strict ALLEGATIONS

Chairman Truman Of the Senate
Defense Investigating Committee
said last night his committee be-
lieved the War Production Board
should take effective steps to re-
duce the influence OF representatives
OF the largest steel producers in its
Iron and Steel Branch"
In a speech over the Columbia
Broadcasting System, Senator Tru-
man declared the committee believes
the entire system for distributing
steel should be revised Immediately
with the WPB setting up q strict
plan of ALLEGATIONS.
Reese Taylor, who recently be-
came head Of WPB's Iron and Steel
Branch, is fully cognizant of the
Importance OF such ALLEGATIONS and
is urging that immediate attention
be given to 1t, Senator Truman said.
Blame Apportioned.
The chairman blamed the War
and Navy Departments for "abso-
lutte failure" to work out during
peace times "worthwhile" estimates
of what their materials needs would
be in wartime. The Office of Pro-
duction Management, he declared,
failed to restrict civilian activities
and failed to increase steel pro-
duction during the many months it
took the war and Navy Departments
to ascertain their real needs.
The committee found it would be
necessary to obtain an increase in
production of all basic raw materi-
ais and repeatedly recommended to
the Office of Production Manage
ment that its plans should be based
upon a program to insure an ade-
quate supply of strategic materials
through full use of existing facilities
and through necessary expansion,
Truman asserted.
Instead of increasing the steel
facilities, the steel magnates, fear
full that their profits after the war
would be lessened by competition of
new steel-making facilities, insisted
that there could be no shortage and
supported their position by referring
to the smallness Of the orders which
the War and Navy Departments es-
timated they would make In the
future"
Kilgore Would End Priorities.
Senator Kilgore, Democrat, OF
West Virginia declared the Govern
ment could speed war production
and save millions and millions of
dollars" by junking the priority sys-
tenn, integrating the Nations entire
steel industry and. allocating orders
directly to specific plants.
John F. Budke of Franklin, Pa,
vice president of the Parkersburg
Iron and Steel Co., declared that
small steel firms were being denied
orders. He said during the first half
of this year, the Government had
ordered only $40 tons Of steel from
his firm, and asked that the Gov
ernment investigate the operations
Of its agencies In the steel business" !"
