Meat on hoof Pays
Tuesday No Mind

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 1.-U.PD-
1t was meatless Tuesday everywhere
but at the great western livestock
show today where thousands of
pounds of choice beef, pork and
lamb on the hoof were being eX-
hibited.
More than 1000 head of pure
bred cattle, sheep and hogs from
10 western states were carefully
groomed for the critical eyes of the
judges.
Buyers were early visitors at the
show, putting in bids for the
blooded stock.
Highlight of the auctions will be
the sale of the grand champion
steer at what was expected to be
a record high price.

New York Faces
Meat SHORTAGE

NEW YORK, Dec. 3.-U.PD-
The New York metropolitan area
today faced a meat shortage.
Shops throughout the city are
without roasting beef, steaks, and
chops and there is no immediate
prospect of their supplies being re-
plenished.
The shortage was said to have re-
suited because packers had over
sold the quotas In the New York
area this supply amounts to 10
per cent OF 1871 supplies.

Great Lakes Shippers
Ask WLB TO Reject
Union Security Clause
Soy Recommendation
Of Panel Usurps
Congress- Powers
BY the Associated Press.

Four industrial concerns which
operate Great Lakes vessels ap-
pealed to the War Labor Board to-
day to reject union security rec
concentration of board panel
which they said would violate the
promise of President Roosevelt and
usurp the powers of Congress.
Ernest S. Ballard, representing
Inland Steel Co., told the board at
public hearing that the panels
recommendation was in effect a
union hiring hall" Under such a
provision Mr.. Ballard said, the COM
panv would have to apply to the
CLIO National Maritime Union to
fill any vacancy which occurred on
vessel and the union would have
"a reasonable time" to supply a
man. The company has the right
to reject the man whom the union
sends and the union may take the
case through the regular grievance
procedure.
Has No Choice.
The Inland attorney said the COM
pany, from a practical standpoint.
has only the choice of accepting the
first man sent by the union or delay
sailing In fact MI Ballard
added, the company has no choice
at all, because the ship has to sail
on time and by the time the man
assigned by the union has arrived
the sailing time also has arrived"
This board has never ordered
preferential hiring over the objec-
ton Of the employer The fact is. if
the board does so now industry will
be driven to the conclusion that the
board has violated the Presidents
promise and usurped the rights of
Congress- The attorney said the
President promised that the Govern
ment would not order the so-called
closed shop"
Firm Exceeded Goals.
Clarence B. Randall, vice president
of Inland Steel, told the board that
the company had exceeded the goal
set by the War Production Board for
iron ore shipping and. that it would
do it again in l943 if arrangements
right to hire and promote on a
merit basis is not disturbed
The other three concerns appeal
ing the panels recommendation are
Interstate Steamship Co, Bethlehem
Transportation Corp. and Interna-
tional Harvester Co.
The unions arguments will be
heard this afternoon.
