FOREIGN AFFAIRS:
World Cooperation

American participation in the es-
Enlistment and maintenance of
postwar peace was unanimously
recommended by the house foreign
affairs committee.
In a simple, 35-word resolution
which it recommended to the house
and senate for approval. the COM
mittee declared: &c. . . Congress
hereby express itself as favoring the
creation Of appropriate information
al machinery with power adequate
to establish and to maintain a Just
and lasting peace, and as favoring
participation by the United States
therein"
introduced by Representative ].
W. Fulbright (Ark.), the resolution
was passed after being stripped Of
the phrase calling for the organiza-
ton of an International body to pre-
vent future aggression. and to main
tain law. order and lasting peace.
Since this section touched on the
highly controversial subject of an
international police force, it was
eliminated.

MEAT PRICES:
Do,vn 1919

Answering to President Roose.
velt's "hold-th Line" order, retail
prices of meat have been rolled
back 10 per cent, a move that
will save housewives an average OF
three cents per pound.
The "roll-back' will be accom-.
plished by government payment Of
subsidies to meat slaughterers to
cover their costs of livestock.
Although the action will reduce
meat prices, consumers will be CON.
PEELED to eat even less beef. The
War Food administration announced
that federally inspected slaughter.

Flat price ceilings on meat have
been drawn by the OPA for four

and ending with the large operator

OIL:

With these words Petroleum Ad-
ministrator Harold Ickes forecast an
increasing shortage Of crude oil.
Such a shortage. Ickes said, would
not develop because Of a lack Of
natural resources but rather be.
cause of a scarcity of labor, trans
p%ortation and other factors.
While stating that imports of oil
would have to he increased from
Venezuela, the Caribbean and Mex
leo, he declared that California will
not be producing sufficient crude by
the end of the year to take care of
the Pacific war theater and her own
needs.
Ickes also blasted the Office Of
Price Administration for its handling
of the gasoline %rationing, declaring
the OPA was too lenient in its al
lotments. He said home owners

FOOD GAR:
Wanted by Congress

Shortly after a bipartisan group
of Legislators conferred with Presi-
dent Roosevelt and suggested that
he appoint a single czar to handle
the food situation, the War Food ad-
ministration prepared issuance Of a
report dealing with unfavorable crop
and meat prospects.
Led by Senator Walter George, the
five senators and four representa-
tives urged that a single authority
be delegated to coordinate produc-
ton, distribution, preservation, ra-
tioning and pricing agricultural COM
modities.
1t was reported the President sug-
gested an appropriation from ~ to
2 billion dollars for subsidies to be
used in rolling back" the prices of
foods. Many legislators oppose the
subsidies, contending the money
used only will have to be repaid in
taxes.
In commenting on crop prospects,

clared floods in the Midwest and dry
weather owe the great plains have
caused considerable damage. Meat

RUSSIA:
Action in the Center

Official announcements pertaining
to the Russian front continued to be
as confusing as the fighting.
While the Reds claimed to have
thrown back German counterattacks
in the Orel region in the center
of the line, the Nazis reported the
continuation Of the strong Russian
offensive in the Caucasus.
In neither sector, however, did
either side claim any major ad.
vance. In relation to renewed Rus.
sian activity in the center, the Nazis
said the Reds were massing huge
forces there, apparently to press the
initial attacks of a week ago when
big holes were punched in the Ger.
man line.
Bolstered by the addition of Amer
lean planes arriving under lend
lease, Russian airmen continued
sweeping attacks owe the German
rear. Military installations and
transport were bombed.

Years ago the Marine uniform was
equipped with a high stiff leather

The Organizing Committee at
Local 755 well remembers when
the group of girls at Delco only
had an average of four out OF
every ten who were union mem
bers. Now that same committee
points with pride to the fact that
at Delco more than fifty per cent
of the ladies are members in good
standing. More and more each day
the ladies are realizing that the
union principle of equal pay for
equal work" has brought thou
sands of dollars into the pockets
of women workers all I'VE the
nation.
The membership drive is open
to every worker at Delco Products,
and the rewards will be great,
not only in the fact that you are
adding to your own collective
bargaining strength, but that there
will be war bonds waiting for
those members who bring the
balance of Delco workers into the
organization.
There will be a grand party
held in conjunction with the 20
Madison Street Building Associa-
ton, and the members of the drive
will be given a great evenings
entertainment in their own union
hall. That hall, that so many of
Local 755 members have helped to
purchase, is still open for addi-
tional membership and additional
entertainment. The dances that
are being held on Wednesday and
Saturday evenings r still at
tended by large groups of union
people who are out for a good
time, and the number of people
who attend is increasing every
week. Local 755 is inviting the en-
tire membership to join in both

Hearing On Equal

Date

The National War Labor Board
has scheduled a hearing for We'd

hear arguments on the UEs e

AS a result of the delay involved

the demanded
that the board establish a definite
retroactive date for the rate ad-
iustments due female employees
who have taken over many male
jobs.
The War Labor Boards Special
Representative, Mr.. William E.
Simkin, who has been assigned to
GIN disputes, has recommended
April S, 1913, as the retroactive
date. Your union has filed a brief
with the board insisting that the
date be pushed back to September
26, 1912, the date of the boards
directive order.
Meanwhile negotiations between
an enlarged shop committee of
