1t is right to say that some people

AFL Convention Votes To
Admit Lewis Mine Union
ATTORNEYS TO TEST
WORK-OR-FIGHT LAW

Washington, d. G. ULNS).-A court
test of Marylands "work-or-fght" law
is being sought by attorneys retained
by the Workers Defense League. The
statute provides that men of military
age, if not drafted must engage in
work ordered by the court.
Two cases arose from convictions for
idleness, but were dropped by the
prosecution. In one instance a 19-year,
old farm boy classified IN-F by the
draft board quit work because he was
receiving 50 Il day and the prevailing
wage was S3.75. Another young man
was sentenced to 6 months or $500 fine.
In both cases the prisoners were re-
leased, one on intervention of the Civil
Rights Section of the Department OF
Justice, the other when he took an
appeal.
Efforts are to be made to bring test
case in the federal courts in order To
get an authoritative decision promptly.
War Manpower Commissioner McNutt
expressed his opposition to the law.
stating that ''any law permitting the
compulsory assignment of men to pri-
vate employers under criminal penal
ties must provide for corresponding
protection of the worker" Counsel for
the Workers Defense League and for
the American Civil Liberties Union
hold that the statute is on its face
void, whether or not projections are
provided.

practices: must accept contract can

McNutt said that now, with well

largest number of workers in history.

That there were political considera-

Miss Harmon stated also that petitions for job transfer statements by 'locals" are showing a rise, on the other hand, with S51 petitions filed in September and 373 last month.
 Greatest demands here are for heavy mill workers, as they have been for many months, the man. ager said. The number of male ap- plicants, however, was high last month, with 444 of the total place. ments those for men. No reason was advanced for the drop in the percentage of women applicants.
