BY JAMES PRESTON

While Washington is awaiting the
emergince of a clear-cut labor policy
covering wage ceilings and the closed
shop, it is also spending considerable
time and energy talking about other
aspects Of the labor situation.
Latest news is that the War Man
power Commission is formulating a
plan for what will amount to a labor
draft Already Chairman McNutt has
warned that there must be a COM
plete utilization Of labor for war pro-
duction. If the nations factories are to
continue to beat their promise on their
scheduled output of munitions, mil
lions Of new workers must be found
to man the production lines. McNutt
places the number at Is million
double the present supply. This means,
he says, that workers must be trans
ferred from one job to another and
that large-scale migrations of labor
will become necessary.
Exactly when this will begin to oc-
cur and on how large a scale-these
are facts that have not been revealed
to date, but present indications are
that the labor shortage will become
acute by the end of the year.
Attorney General Biddle's recent
message to labor unions, advising them
to accept added responsibility" in re-
turn for the gains that labor has made
in recent years, is thought here to
have been intended to offset criticism
of two of his recent public statements.
One was his refusal to permit Assist
ant Attorney General Arnold to testi-
fly before Congress in connection with
the bills to outlaw labor rackerteer-
ing, and the other was his statement
that New Deal detectives must be sup
ported irrespective of the war.
Admitting that unfortunately there
are still rackcteering labor leaders"
the Attorney General asked members
Of labor unions to "think of themselves
as expressing the interests of the gen
clal public Thus it would have a tire
mendously potent effect on the coun-
try at large if unions were not only
willing to accept public accountability
Of their finances but themselves in

The second panel, lead by DR.. Har-

at the University of Montana, began
with the recognition of democracy as

ship" necessary for the achievement
of democracy was developed by Mrs.
Stoltz, director of education of the
Montana Farmers Union and Miss
Fox, visiting professor of education at
the university this summer, and other
members of the panel and the con-
ference. 1t was defined as the motiva-
ton of effort by the service motive
and cooperation with. fellow citizens,
rather than for self-interest and COM
petition. Rugged individualism had
led to many perversions of our demo
cratic principles. Competition was
not necessary as a motivating force.
If youth were permitted actual parti-
cipation in democratic living, service
would well serve as motiyating
force.

FORTUNE TELLER
 UPSET BY COPS
Predicts Long Trip for SIeuths--Take One Them=
 Selves Rather Suddenly

Efforts of man and woman from New York to open fortune telling business at 159 East Main street came to no good yesterday when Lieuts. Patrick Moylan and Ernest Pakul of the plainclothes police squad decided to have their fortunes told.
 Lieut. Parkul entered the seance chambers while Lieut.. Moylan con- tacted two girls who had just enl- erged with assurances that their futures were bright.
 Said the fortune teller to Lieut.. Pakul, You're gaing on trip"
 Returned Lieut.. Pakul, Maybe I am lady, but you're going on longer one-come with me-"
 At that moment Lieut. Moylan was arresting Louis Uvanich, 28, of lOS East 111th street, New York on a charge of keeping fortune tell ing parlor.
 The woman, arrested on charge of telling forums was Mary Uvan- ich, 30, of the same address.
 Both were discharged by Judge T. E. Conway in municipal court today when they promised to take that long trip-and get out of town.

The principal points at issue are union demands for a wage increase of IS cents an hour, a union shop or some other form of union security, and other con- sessions. The previous contract was to have expired March IT, but has been extended indefinitely pend- ing a decision.
 J. Harold Madden, director of labor relations for the company, will be spokesman for the manage ment. John J. Driscoll, executive secretary of the Waterbury Brass Workers union, will be chief spokes- man for the CIO units in the three cities.
 The union locals have been recog- nized as bargaining agents for the American Brass Co.,, employees in the main plants in Waterbury, An sonia and Torrington for the past four years, having won recognition after NLRB elections.
 The company recently announced pay increases of eight cents an hour for workers in its Detroit, Buffalo, and Kenosha branches, also for workers in the French Small Tube branch. A 10 per cent raise for salaried clerical employees of all divisions was also recently an- nounced. All these raises were retroactive to March l.
