Conn. Manpower Plans Given

program may be appealed to the area
mnpOWer committee.
Must OK. Agreements
Where agreements stabilizing
employment in a community or
area have already been worked out
by employers without VINO par
ticipatiOn or supervision, such
agreements will not be recognized
by the War Manpower Commits
sion and participants will be told
that continuance of such agree
ments is contrary to war manpower
policy.
The War Manpower Commission
now has authority over the induction
of men into the armed forces. This
civilian commission has the authority
to determine which group of workers
are most needed on their jobs and
which can best serve at the fighting
fronts. It's program is to get and keep
each person in the job where he or she
can best serve.
That is the program. The manpower
problem is essentially a series of local
problems and it is being met on that
basis by the local people in a way
which gives everyone concerned a
voice in the program.

Such a program will control the
transfer of workers from one job
to another in the IS industries or
activities which the War ManpOwer
Commission has already designated
as essential. There may be excep-
tons to this. In Louisville, for ex-
ample, only certain highly skilled
workers are stabilized. In some
communities, such as Baltimore,
the first such area established, the
job control covers all occupations
in the area. In general, however,
the list of IS industries will be
used as the basis for determining
the extent of job control.
No worker in these six Conn.
cities under such job control may
then transfer from one job to an
other without the approval of his en-
ployer or of the United States En-
ployment Service This is not, how
ever, a job freeze, the Commission
says. Actually, the program encour-
ages workers to change jobs when the
change will aid the war effort. Each
program provides circumstances I'M
der which an employee may transfer.
Although each program will be adapt
ed to the local situation, almost all
will permit man to transfer if:
/. The worker. is competent
to perform higher skilled work
than his employer can provide.
2. When the worker is en-
plOyed for a substantial period
for at less than full time.
3. When the distance between
the workers home and his job
is reasonably great and when the
prospective new job is much
closer or more accessible.
4. When the worker has COM
pelling personal reasons for MAX
ing the change. Some plans pre-
vent the hiring of workers from
outside the areas.
Also, in some plants, worker who
leaves a plant where he can perform
greater service to the war effort
will retain his seniority at his first
and regular job.
In most communities where man
power control is now in effect, the
employe may get signed okay from
his employer which will be accepted
by the new employer to whom he ap-
piled for a job, thereby eliminating
his going to the USES. Should the
employer refuse to grant such re-
lease, a worker may then appeal to
the USES if he feels that the en-
ployer's action was unfair. Any dis

He stated that he was satisfied

got off to in its first year of opera
ton. Royston said he was especially
pleased with the manner in which
labor was availing itself of the OBJ
portun1ty to purchase low-cost life
insurance. The State Legislature. he
added, had the interest of labor in
mind when it passed the S.B.L.I. law
to permit mutual savings banks to sell
insurance over the counter on a non
profit basis.
The state office of the fund last

UnempIoyables To

Department of Education describes
the new plan as a logical development
of his man salvage clinics"
Job applicants i'm need of physi-
cal treatment for the correction of
their defects will be able to secure
such attention through ederal-State
funds on a loan basis, said Ennis.
The loans will be paid back in
installments after the applicants
have been placed i'm steady jobs.
Candidates for medical care will
be referred through the U. S. EN-
pIoyment Service, or by the doctors
of the principal manufacturing con-
Germs of the state where the ''dis-
abled" applicant seeks employment.
Director Ennis stressed the fact
that the overall plan included more
than physical rehabilitation, although
this is an important aspect of the
problem.
''PeOple are debarred from en-
plOyment now" he said, ''for a
variety of reasons-sOme because
they have suffered mental break
down, others because they are
aliens; others because of a prison
record. We intend to have special
lied interviewers in every field of
flee of the Service, to try Objec-
lively to overcome the handicap
and place the applicant i'm a job
where he can do the most good"
Persons previously debarred from
work because of physical or other
disability should renew their regis
tration at the nearest U. S. Employ
ment Office Immediately. Those who
have not registered in the past on this
account should also register, Ennis
said, SO that, if feasible, they may be
referred to the Rehabilitation Divi-
sion for necessary medical attention,

Pittsburgh Ralqvaynen Win$725 OOOnF Wages

The National War Labor
has approved an arbitration
award granting wage increases
OF las cents per hour to
trainmen and bus operators
of the Pittsburgh Railways Co.
and the Pittsburgh Motor
Coach Co., members of Divis-
ions 85 and 1894 of the Anal
gamated Association of Street,
Electric Railway and Motor
Coach Employees of America.
The award increased the hourly
rate of the more than 100 one
man car operators involved from
95.5 cents to $l.lO per hour and
the rate of the bus operators, rum
bering approximately $50, from "a
cents to 98.5 cents per hour.
The incorporating employees of
the company received increases
ranging from 4 cents per hour for
those receiving 90 cents to 90 cents
to 8 cents per hour for employees
receiving 80 cents and more.
The top rates for shop employees
under the award have thus been in
creased to $1.O9, $1.10, and $1.14 &C
cording to the respective classical
tions. The increases are retroactive
to May |, 1912.
$725, 900 i'm Increases
1t has been stated on behalf of the
companies that the total increases
awarded will amount to more than
$725,000 annually.
Since 1885 and until recently, the
wage rate of one-man car operators
in Pittsburgh had been the highest in
the United States, but the rate had
not been increased since 1887. The
award restores the former relation
ship and Pittsburgh, together with
Detroit, again pays the top wage rates.
The bus operators had obtained
an increase in their rate in 194l,
but the majority of the board of
arbitration ruled that the existing
differential between their rate and
that of he One-man car operators
was not justified and that they
should receive at least the same in
crease as the other group.
