Urges Drafting
capi+aI

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - (FP) -
The American Legion is urged to
emphasize its plank for the draft
ing of capital in time of war by
a liberal legion editor, w. Burr
Cullom, writing in the current is
sue of The Tennessee Legionnaire.
Cullom, who has strenuously op-
posed legion interference with or
ganized labor, condemns the Ana
eonda Copper and Carnegie-lllinols
Steel companies. He says pointed
ly: "We are beginning to suspect
that fortunes now are being made
in this war, some by fraud.
"And it was the legion" he re-
minds, (which gave wide circula-
tion to the statement, For every
American boy who gave his life on
the battlefields of the World War,
one marble mansion was erected
on the boulevards of his home
land"

strike could be sanctioned by the
international union because the Of
ficers and members of the union
had mde a pledge of no strikes for
the duration and intended to keep
that pledge.

and try and get a satisfactory an
swer to the workers wage prob

justment in relation to each other
that a good share of the workers
problems would be solved.

Data
Spee1ed Up
By WLB

CLEVELAND, o., May 23.-The
Regional War Labor Board is
speeding up the gathering of wage
data in Ohio, Kentucky and West
Virginia for the purpose of deter
mining wage brackets for particu-
lar job classifications to be used
in applying the recent policy di-
rective of Economic Sterilization
Director James F. Byrnes, it was
announced today by Lewis NJ. Gill,
chairman.
He pointed out that the Byrnes
directive did not return the War
Labor Boards wage policy to what
it was before President Roosevelt
issued the "hold the line" Executive
Order 1928 on April s.
"The directive" Mr.. Gill ex-
planned, establishes concrete linn
itations on the. Boards authority
to make wage adjustments intended
to aid in the effective prosecution
of the war or to correct gross in
equities between rates for the same
occupations in different plants.
Inequalities between rates at
different plants. as such, no longer
may be proper basis for an in
crease in wages"
Mr.. Gill stated that establish
ment of the rate brackets was a
difficult task that required a good
many facts before the proper
ranges could be determined.
He asked that employers and
unions submitting wage matters to
the Board cooperate in the pro-
gram by supplying as much infor-
nation as possible on the rates
paid in the plant involved.
Rate brackets will be fixed ac-
cording to areas, he said. Wage
stabilization panels established by
the Regional Board two months
ago already have gathered some
wage data in Cleveland, Toledo,
Columbus, Cincinnati, Dayton and
Louisville, KY.

Production
is Slowed.
Says Thomas

WASHINGTON-(FP) = Slow
down in production is taking place.
1t is showdown at the behest of
business-as-usual forces. So testi-
fled Pres. R. J. Thomas of the
United Auto Workers (CIO) be-
fore the Kilgore military affairs
committee.
When the perplexed man or
woman on the production line asks,
"Why?" the usual answer is mill
tary requirements" But, said
Thomas, there has been no change
in the military requirement for the
earliest possible destruction Of the
Axis powers" he said. Nor in the
principle that the more guns and
tanks and planes, the more decisive
will be the victory, he added.
Workers Producing Too Much
Latest figures for the auto in
dustry, said Thomas, show it is ar
rested at a production rate of
about 8 billion dollars worth of
weapons a year, instead of II bill
lion expected at peak output. And
with the war amounting to a eli
max, workers "are told that they
have been producing too much

LaGudrdia Calls
For Labor Party

NEW YORK (FP) Formation
of nationwide American Labor
party to protect social gains made
under the New Deal was urged
here May 16 by Mayor Fiorello H.
LaGuardia at dinner of the New
York State ALP executive commit
tee.
Warning his listeners, among
whom was Vice Pres. Henry A.
Wallace, that forces within the
Democratic party itself were plot
ting to scuttle New Deal legisla-
ton, LaGuardia indicated that the
best guarantee that recent labor
gains would be preserved was a
strong, national political party Of
labor.
Third Party Proceeds
Gas recall history" he said,
every great change in this coun-
try has been preceded by third
party movement. A third party
might not be needed if we could
have realignment Of the two
major parties. But there is no sign
that there will be one so long as
office and power are their chief
aims.
Il hope the contagion of the
labor party will spread to every
point in the country: to the pro-
gressives of Wisconsin and the
middle west, to the progressives of
the far west, and to other sections
where progressive tn oug h t is
rather new"
Wallace disclosed that the Roose-
velt administration, through the
Natl. Resources Planning Board
and other agencies, is preparing a
public works program of billions
of dollars to insure full employ
ment in the U. S. after the war.
