Conspiracy Charges
BY the Associated Tress


NEW YORK, July 8.-Pleas of in
nocent were entered in General Ses-
sions Court by Il omcials of the
CIO Independent Laundry Drivers
Of Greater New York, Local 324,
who were indicted on charges Of
conspiracy. extortion, blackmail and
violation of the Donnelly Anti-Mo-
nopoly Act.
They made their pleas yesterday
before Judge Jonah J. Goldstein q
few hours after State Attorney Gen.
eral Nathaniel L. Goldstein an
nounced a grand jury had returned
73-count indictment against them.
Judge Goldstein fixed bail ranging
from $1,000 to 5000 for 13 of the
men and $500 for Meyer kaufman,
Al. president of the local. Besides
kaufman, other defendants were:
Murray M. Gasman, 80, local
manager; William Pucciarelli, "a, an
organizer; Jimmy Messina, 46, of

charter" about 1000 laundry own
ers and independent agents to join

fees, dues and assessments. "or else
face stoppage in the washing of
their laundry"
In statement issued through

Committee 10 Outline
Clio Political Policy,
Indorse Candidates
BY the Agsociated Press

6y Inc ASsoClAteQ FreSS.
One segment Of labor, as another
presidential campaign draws near,
has set up an organization with in
structions to draw up q program OF
political action and specify candi-
dates favorable to the program.
A Political Action Committee was
established today by the National
Executive Board Of the Congress OF
Industrial Organizations. Sidney
Hillman, president Of the Amalsa-
mated Clothing Workers. was named
chairman.
CIO President Philip Murray said
the committee seeks the active CO.
operation Of other labor organiza-
tions and other groups" It's de-
cisions will be reported to the full
CIO board at its September meet
ing.
Serving with Mr.. Hillman are r.
j. Thomas of the United Auto
Workers, s. H. Dalrymple of the
United Rubber Workers, Albert Fitz-
gerald of the United Electrical
Workers and either Van A. Bittner
or David ]. Mcdonald Of the United
Steel Workers.
The board also in meeting yes
terday decided to hold the annual
CIO convention in st. Louis the
third week Of November. reaffirmed
its no-strike pledge and adopted a
resolution assailing the Antistrike
Act which forbids strikes in Gov
ernment operated industries or
mines in wartime.
The resolution took 4 shot at
John l.. Lewis, president Of the
United Mine Workers, by declaring
that labor batting forces in Con-
gress enacted this vicious antilaboT
measure to wreak vengeance for the
acts Of one individual who flouted
the needs Of the Nation for con-
tinuous production of vital war ma :
terials ." and recklessly caused
q national strike in the coal fields
Another resolution recommended
Congress set up an agency to plan
for peace at home" an assignment
the CIO group said should have
been intrusted to the National Re-
sources Planning Board whose
funds have been shut OF.
One oficial likened the new COM
mittee to labor's Nonpartisan
League. which was the CLOS po-
itical arm under Mr.. Lewis.

Action on Pay Raise
Applications Ordered
Speeded by Treasury
BY the Associated Press.


The white collar man whose rec
commended pay raise has been held
up in Government f1les for a de-
cision on whether it violates the
hold-the- order is about to get
some attention from the Treasury,
it was indicated today.
Full speed ahead on requests from
business for approval of salary in
creases was reported ordered.
The Treasury's salary stabilization
unit has done little more than mark
time for about two months after
President Roosevelts hold-the- line
order of April 8, imposing rigid con-
trolls on existing pay scales The
reason for this was that the Treas
ury was awaiting clarif1cation of the
order and that didn't come until
mid June
Since then the departments vari-
Gus regional units have been hard
at work trying to catch up with the
piles of requests.
Applies to Executives.
Treasury salary jurisdiction ap-
plies only to persons paid more than
S., 900 q year or to executive en-
ployes receiving more than $50
week and administrative and pro-
fessional employees paid more than
5000 q month. The War Labor
Board has jurisdiction over other
wages and salaries.
The first clarification of Mr..
Roosevelt's order came May IL from
James F. Byrnes, war mobilization
director, who then was stabilization
director, but many cases still were
not acted on until further directives
could be obtained to apply to spe-
cific cases.
In his May II ruling Mr.. Byrnes
held that increases might be granted
on the showing that they would aid
in the prosecution of the war or
would correct gross inequalities, pro-
vided that no increase should cause
rise in prices nor interfere with
price reductions.
No announcement has been made
of the later directives, and officials
are not at liberty to discuss their
application.
Procedure Outlined.
Only last week, however. the
Treasury outlined general procedure
for approval of pay increases for
supervisory employees working longer
than 40 hours q week but not cov-
cred by Wage-Hour Act provision
requiring payment of time and
half for overtime
without laying down a set rule,
the Treasury held that in general
such supervisors could be paid for
overtime at the rate of the highest
hourly-paid worker, provided the
supervisors pay is equal to or less
than that of the highest hourly
paid worker.
Of1cials expect the overtime in
structions to prove a big help to the
regional stabilization units and also
look for early slackening in the
number of vacation pay cases. These
factors probably will contribute to
a faster tempo in handling of other
applications.
Before the holding the line order,
most applications were being ham
died within 10 days. This is the
! goal again.

The office of price control an
nounces that all alfalfa seeds, in
Guiding all state certified improved
varieties, have been made subject

Alfalfa, medium red and mammoth
clover, alsike clover, sweet clover,

Certain, but not all state certified
varieties carry a premium over other
grades of the same kinds of seeds.
The regulation applies to all sales,

delivery, in all parts of the contin-
United States.

Bowles Says Cost
OF Food Is Same
AS in March, 1913

Chester Bowles, OPA administra-
tor, summarized the job OPA has
done in 1943 in holding down the
cost of living and in distributing
rationed products.
A year ago, MI. Bowles said, round
steak was 3 cents higher a pound,
pork chops were 512 cents higher,
lamb chops 2 cents higher and leg
of lamb IL cents a pound higher.
Today meat in general is averag-
ing about 7 per cent under the fig
ures of Christmas, 1912"
Food prices, in general, Mr.. BoWleS
said, average out almost exactly
the same as last March. Rentals
have also remained about the same
for the last year. On clothing
prices are up by 512 percent since
Christmas a year ago. Today, the
cost of living stands about where it
eight months ago. That is a
record the whole country can be
proud of, because it was the first
time since January, 1941, three years
ago, that the cost of living has been
held so stable for so long"
