Unemployment In April
Under One Million

Washington, d. G. (ILNS).-In
April, Americas labor force, not
counting men and women in the armed
services, reached 51.2 million at work
and 100000 unemployed. Two years
ago in the same month 100000 were
listed as unemployed. Time lost in
transferring from one job to another
is believed to account for large part
of the current unemployment figure.
British experience indicates that even
during severe manpower shortage, a
substantial number are listed as un-
employed because they are "in be-
tween" jobs.
The number of men listed as en-
ployed shrank by 100000 in the two
year period, while 100000 more
women are listed in the employed la
Dor force, according to the Census
Bureau figures.

SLASH THIRTY PCT.
STATE PROFIT
SAYS COLUMNIST

Cleveland-William F. McDermott
columnist for the Plain Dealer, dis
cussed Ohio's "ration allowance of one
quart of strong waters a month"
compared it with the largesse of other
states, then recommended a course of
action which has occurred to many a
licensee. Said McDermott last week:
If the state liquor department can
not fulfill the function for which it
was created, namely, to supply the
citizens of the commonwealth with
sound liquor at reasonable cost, it
does not seem logical that it should
prevent private enterprise from doing
so. | cannot understand the reasoning
or see the justice in the states atti-
tude that it is entitled to 80 percent
profit on the enterprise of private
citizen who finds and buys commodi-
ties which the state is apparently un-
able to find or to buy for him.
In any case-I mean no puma
charge of 80 percent for providing no
service seems excessive. If the profit
charge is not eliminated for the dura-
tion it ought to be substantially re-
duced People who know say that the
result would BE a quick and consider
able increase in the states supply of
legally acquired alcoholic beverages.
Comparison with other states indi-
cate that the residents of Ohio will
need what supplement to their bever-
age supply they can get from private
initiative.

COMPLETE ECONOMIC COLLAPSE
NEAR, SEC'Y MEANY WARNS
Declares OPA Control
Miserable Failure

Meany told his nationwide audience
that, as ''every housewife in the coun-
try already knows" food prices have
skyrocketed in the last 2 years to
"disgraceful heights"
"OPA, in so far as food price con-
troll is concerned, has been a miser-
able failure" he said.
"The purchasing power of the
workers dollar in the groceries, meat
markets and vegetable stores of Am
erica has shrunk steadily and it is still
shrinking. In other words each dol
lar buys progressively less and less
And that situation, as the price ad-
ministrator himself told us few days
ago, constitutes infation.'

Workers. Bond Purchases Not Factor
In Decisions on Wage Increases
Treasury and WLB Declare
Public Action Taken After Los Angeles Labor Board
Panel Ruled That URWA Did Not Need Wage Adjust
ment; WLB Promptly Responds In Favor URWA

Washington, d. C. (ILNS) The
al War Labor Board have joined in
assuring millions of workers en-
ployed in 10000 firms where more
than 10 percent of their gross payroll
is being allotted regularly to war
bond purchases, that their fine bond
buying record would in no way jeop-
taken into consideration in deciding
wage rate cases.
Public action was taken after it was
disclosed that member of a War
Labor Board panel in Los Angeles had
declared in a minority report that CIO
rubber workers at a local plant did
not need wage adjustment because
they had voluntarily subscribed over
13 percent of their pay for war bonds.
This is SO percent more than the
government is asking from it's citi-
zens," the minority opinion stated,
and Shows, without doubt, that work
ers are highly paio and not suffering
from maladjustment; otherwise, they
would not be able to over-subscribe
their bond quota"
Board Repudiates Opinion
The opinion was brought to the at
tention of Treasury officials by the
United Rubber Workers of America,
CIO, Local 100, whose secretary, Mare
R. Nielsen, declared that mo individ-
ual or group can invest too much of
their earnings" in war bonds today.

issue involving the war savings pro-

BICYCLE RIDERS

Bicyclists and motorists were urged
today by Hamilton Safety Council tc
observe the rules of courtesy and
safety on Hamilton streets.
Here are some suggestions from the
Safety Council for motorists:
/. Give the bicycle rider room tc
ride at the right hand side OF
of the road Be careful not to
crowd him, possibly causing a
serious accident
2. Don't sound your horn loudly
when approaching a bicycle
rider from behind. 1t may
frighten an inexperienced rider
and cause him to swerve out in
front of you.
For Bicycle Rider:
l. Ride in single file and as neal
the right hand edge of the road
as possible.
2. No trick riding or 'horseplay.'
Riding "No hands" or swiging
out into the street is not smart
Remember if anyone is hurt it
will be you and not the motor
ist.
8. Don't ride or carry anyone on
the handlebars. It's against the
law
A. Give hand signals when you
want to change your direction
Remember the motorist cannot
read your mind.
5. If riding at night, make sure
you have a light in front and
red light in rear, both visible
at least 500 feet.

Effective Control of Living Costs Held Only Way te
Prevent Ruin Runaway Initiation Could Cost
u. S. War, AFL Official Says

Because of the utter failure" of the
government to effectively control the
cost of living, the nation stands on the
brink of a complete collapse of the
entire economic stabilization program,
Secretary Treasurer George Meany of
the American Federation Of Labor
warned in bluntly worded talk to the
American people over the Blue net
work.
Demanding that the United States
adopt without delay the effective price
control system in operation in Great
Britain, Secretary Meany bitterly de-
nounced the failure of price control in
this country to date.
He declared that the American peo-
pie have been given little more than
diet of promises of action ''manana,
always manana" tomorrow, but he
made it very clear that labor does not
associate itself with the "nefarious
drive" of big business and pro-infia-
tion farm organizations aimed at
bringing about the abolition of OPA
and the elimination of food price con-
control.
Workers Driven
To Strike, He Says
'The crying need of today" said
the hard-hitting labor leader, spear
head of labor's campaign to drive the
prices of food back to the levels of
May, 1912, ''is TO make price control
better, not to make it worse"
Referring to recent protest strikes,
Meany said the workers who partici-
pated in the walkouts felt themselves
driven Sin sheer desperation" to ac-
tion injurious to the nations war eff
tic governmental policy which freezes
their wages by arbitrary edicts on the
one hand and which, on the other
hand, permits, the prices of food to
rise to unconscionable heights"
He characterized the Little Steel
formula as a theoretical monstros-
ity" and declared sit is high time that
our policy, so-called, of economic sta
bilization was readjusted on a COM
nonsense basis"
Declares Britain
Has Shown Way
Meany, urging the adoption of the
effective British system of price con-
troll said:
'We must either raise wages to
enable the workers to buy suffi-
cient food-and, of course, face
the consequences of initiation by
so doing-or we must roll back
the prices of food to the levels of
May, 1912. And when the prices
have been rolled back to that
point they must be held there.
"Now how is this to be accom-
plished? Many of our governmental
leaders are Mortified at this sugges-
ton. IL can't be done, they say. They
are sadly mistaken.

well, in Great Britain. Over there,
using subsidies and a universal and
well-enforced price control, they have

succeeded in mailing the cost of living
down to truly stable level.
Says British Control
Works Effectively
''The record provides the proof. For
2 years the cost of living in Britain
has risen less than one-half of one per
cent. Compare that if you will with
our own country, where the cost OF
living has admittedly risen more than
twice that much in single month.
"Price control in Great Britain is a
functioning, efficient reality, not a
morale -shattering mockery as it has
been in our country. The British sys-
tenn works effectively. Our does not.
"Of course, some one will raise the
objection that it will cost mony. That
is true. But the annual cost of oper-
ating under the British system of food
price control would be equivalent to
no more than our governments ex-
penditure in 5 or days to carry on
the war
Hold Real Action
Cannot Be Delayed
'sIs it not far better to spend two
billion dollars to maintain economic
stability than to invite runaway in
fiation that would slash the value of
your dollar to Is cents and cause
chaos at home when we should be get
ting on with the job of winning the
war?
"A runaway imitation would
cost the American people so
times two billion dollars. 1t could
cost us the war"
''Time is short" he said. 1--WE can
not wait any longer. We must have
real action now. We do not want more
promises"
Blasts Propaganda
Against Pay Raises
The AFL leader, who is also labor
member of the National War Labor
Board, denounced the high-powered
propaganda campaign which has tried
to sell the false idea that wages have
increased so greatly that sky-high
prices for essential foodstuffs do not
actually represent any hardship.
''The simple fact" Meany asserted,
lis that, out of the millions of work
ers employed in a total of 104 indus
tries, only those in industries re-
ceive wages large enough to enable
them to enjoy even minimum health
and efficiency living.
despite careless talk of high
wages, the truth is that the average
weekly pay envelope for all manufac-
turing, including the war industries,
holds only SAL. This is the official fig
ure released by the U. S. Government.
while the average weekly pay en-
velope contains only Sal, the mini
mum weekly wage necessary to sup
port family of in Baltimore is $48,
in Seattle $51, in Chicago $52, in New
York $54. . The record shows that
in only industries do the workers
receive enough to purchase this mini
mum standard of living, while in 100
industries they do not"
