1t seemed as if much had gone wrong
that day. AS guest in my friends

old. had painted the neighbor's back

fresh cupcakes and had emptied his

that because it belonged to some one

off somehow. 1t might even mean that

1t was bedtime and as / watched

Drive To End Line
System Production
"Stdbilizdtion Of Industry"
Keynote Of Two-DdY
Conference

Philadelphia, ULNS). - The Uphol
Sterers International Union will EN-
bark on a drive to eliminate line SyS-
TEN mass production methods from the
industry, it was announced by Sal r.
Hoffman,, president of the union, fol
lowing the first annual conference of
the upholsterers' department of the
UIU.
Pending achievement of the unions
goal, President Hoffman said the UIU
will follow Il temporary policy of re
strcting the number of manufacturing
operations to three-sprngng, uphol-
Stering, and trimming.
Training Program Studied
The UIU also will discourage piece
work with elimination another union
goal. Pending abolition of piece work,
agreements with employers will pro
vide that piece work prices and time
allotted to jobs made on time basis
are to be established by mutual agree
ment between employers and union.
As part of its drive against line Sys-
TEN and piece work, the UIU is study
ing establishment of Il training pro
gram to make skilled uphol>terS of line
and section workers. The departmental
conference declared the cost of such Il
training program and OF il program to
fill postwar need for skilled craftsmen
should be born by employers.
"StabiliZatiUn of the industry was
the keynote of the twO-day department
conference held in Cleveland Standard

conditions to be embodied in all con
tracts with upholstered furniture manu-
facturerS were established by the con
ference and awaiting the approval of

Big Outfits Represented

The MOrgan-contrOlled Genera
Foods Corporation is literally repre-
Sented, as are the chain store outfits,
the Sugar Trust and other big food
dealers and manufacturers and han
dlers.
1t is up to these business men,
Rogers revealed, to fix prices and en-
this is like setting wolves to guard a
shcepfOld, and there is abundant evil
dence the management is working out
that way.
For example, the New York Herald
Tribune" reports that Il survey of 5000
eating establishments in Manhattan
during the last 10 days revealed that
400 restaurants were paying no atten-
tion to price ceilings. Consumers are
being compelled to pay double and
treble former prices, investigators were
said to have disclosed.
DistilIers Write Own Ticket
Another illustration came from the
Philadelphia Record" which charged
that scan la louS prOfiteering and
adulteration in the liquor business
where representatives of distllers are
enlhroned in places of power.
The liquor business may have carried
its shenanigans too far. The Senate
judiciary Committee has approved a
resolution by Senator James q. Scrug-
4
ing investigation of charges that large
stocks of liquor are being held off the
Ia. rket for higher prices, that brand
names are being changed for the same
purpose, and that neutral spirits and
other adulterants are being used to
pad OUT liquor.
1T is ii damn outrage" Scrugham
declared, ITO have to buy rOtgut--and
that is all you can get-and have to
pay So 10 SS IL quart for it,"
The Senator said he was convinced
there is "a large quantity of good
liquor in storage and added:
Il have made some personal investi-
cations into this matter and feel sure
that ii is being held for proiit-largc
profits. 1t is being held mostly by four
large companies, which have bought up
diStilleries right and left and have
accumulated large stocks. They are
comlclnptuouS OF price ceilings
The orA just now is being subjected
io all kinds of attack, some deserved,
others not. It's trouble is that it has
lost the confidence of the people and is
still suffering from the resentment
aroused by Leon Henderson when he
headed the agency.
This gives men like Congressman
Howard W. Smith, rcaCtiOnary Nir-
ginla Democrat, an opportunity TO blast
the DPA. This week Smith came out
with Il report dcnouncing the bPA, not
for its failure to protect consumers,
but because ii had not turned the collI-
try over to the proiitcer To Il greater
degree than now exists

CIO. and "independent' unions. 1t is
estimated that the question of repre-
sentation involves approximately 10000
employees working in about 10000
offices of the Western Union system.
Complex Questions Up
Should the board order an election,
questions of unusual compleXity Will
have to be resolved by ii. Among these
questions are the determination of the
various clasStications of employees
eligible to yote-paSt union contracts
showing more than 100 job classified
tionS. varying from area to area-and
the geographical scope of the unit ap-
propiiate for bargaining purposes.
In view of the widespread nature Of
the company'S operations, employees to
be voted working in Il chain of 10000
offices from coast To coast and from
Mexico to Canada, the board plans to
poll by registered mail the collective
bargaining choices of employees in

remainder of the employees eligible to
vote. in the nations metropolitan areas,
will vote through the boards usual
machinery. at polls supervised by
board agents.
Most Extensive Care
The area To be covered by these
representation proceedings makes the
Western Union case the most extensive
of the more than 5000 elections con
Quoted by the board since its inception.
In terms Of number of Western Union
employees To be pOlled, estimated at
10000, this case ranks fourth in the
boards ballOting of more than IA mil
lion workers sine" 1889 The three
bigger cases, in terms of number of
votes. are the General Motors case in
which 124 900 valid votes were cast,
Bethlehem Steel, $4,000 valid votes,
and the Ford Motor election, 1900
valid votes.
Board Given Mandate
Under the recent Telegraph Merger
Act, the NLRB was given the mandate
of protecting the rights and privileges
of the telegraph employees which might
be affected by the merger. Recently the
NLRB added new provision to its
rules and regulations 50 that the pro
cedUrcS Of the Labor Relations Act will
apply to its new duties arising under
the merger.
