OWL ADVISORY RADIO MEN
URGE MORE WAR NEWS

Washington, ID. G. ULNS). - IsSu-
ance of "all the war news, whether it
is good or bad" as soon as military
security permits its release, has been
asked by the radio advisory committee
of the Office of War Information.
\ statement of 8 leading radio exc
cutives, issued after their first meet
ing with OWL, was similar in content
to but milder in language than that
of the newspaper advisory committee
on September Both.
The radio committee recommended
that there be "a continuation and ex-
panSion of such material because the
broadcaSterS are acutely aware of the
desire of the listeners of America for
all of the war news, whether it is good
or bad; and that it be released to them
factually at the earliest possible mo-
ment that the eXigenceS of military
and naval strategy will permit"

THOSE BIS STATISTICS

FEIIE MONTHLY cOst-of-living index compiled by
Bureau of Labor Statistics of the Department
Iof Labor has often been criticized by organized
Ilabor as being too conservative. 1t has been
charged that the cost-of-iVing reports issued by
the Bureau do not reflect the true state of affairs
and therefore cannot be accepted as a basis for
tWage demands
Now comes the American Statistical ASsOCia-
ton with a report that its researches show these
BIS statistics to be accurate; aside from recon-
mending wider cOVerage in gathering the data on
(which they are based, the Association finds little
fault with them.
The BIS statistics could very well be as ac-
Ito give US a true picture Of the situation. 1t is
reported, for instance, that until just recently the
Bureau including such obstacle things as
IWomens high button shoes and mems muslin

dead itemS on which there has been no price
variation in years because they longer exist as
ISalabl2 merchandise, have been carried in the
IBIS index, their presence there serving to reduce

IreQuircd now with the 40 days required back in
Il9l1, when the first such flight was made.
1t has been admitted by Bureau official that
1.-THE index does not measure the decline in living
standards, which in wartime runs counter to the
IrSing costs, does not show many effects Of goods
from the civilian market, and does
mot reflect the steep climb in taxes. 1t is futile
Ito speak Of accuracy in the face of these serious
IOmSSlOnS.

$92.595 PAID IN BACK WAGES
TO OHIO WORKERS

Cleveland, Ohio.-Ohio workers re-
ceived S92 ,J9597 in back wages during
September following inspections under
the Fair Labor Standards and Walsh
Healcy Public Contracts Acts, Miss
Grace G. GlaScott, OhiO-Michigan re-
gional director of the WageElour and
Public Contracts Divisions, L. 5. De
partment of Labor announced. Nearly
100 workers shared in the payments
made by 81 establishments.
All but two cases were closed with
out the necessity of legal action. IIolf
Manufacturing Company, Mansfield
was ordered by the federal district
court to pay back wages totaling So
3s27 .53 to 197 workers. Pease WOOdwOrk
Company. Cincinnati, was restrained
by an Injunction issued in the CinCin
natl federal court from further viola
tons of the Wage-lIOur Act.
The back-Wage payments represent
the difference between what the work
erS were paid and what they are en-
titled to under the federal labor laws
Miss GlaScott announced at the same
time that total payments in Ohio and
Michigan during the month were S116,-
651.30 to 2,361 employees by 81 estab-
IliShmentS.

INSURANCE ACTION VITAL

II 'ONGRESS must act quickly our amend
- ments to make social security adequate to
carry workers safely through the economic emer-
yencies of postwar days. Upon the safety Of labor
depends the safety of democracy. The European
phase of the war may be over next summer. In
lustrial reconversion beginning with the German
ormistice will make the beginning Of postwar
unemployment
Unless the federal government is ready with
provisions against the emergencies, workers who
have given their best to make possible the win
ning OF the war will find themselves JobIess,
mOneyess, with ranking sense Of injustice. AS
IA matter of discretion we ask the Administration
and Congress to make it possible for us to invest
lin social insurance, so that we shall not be forced
On relief when we occasionally are unable to earn.
Labor has proposed that we invest six per
cent of our earnings and that employers pay SIX
per cent Of payrolls to insure income during un-
employment disability and inability to work due
Ito old age Under our proposal revenues raised
from social insurance would amount to eight or
mine billions annually, with national income at It's
present level. This would be an increase Of four
or five billions.
Our proposal would not only provide much
needed increased revenues available for war credit
but would constitute the most effective anti infla-
tiOn measure that can be adopted.
The Ways and Means Committee can with
gleat wisdom make an increased social insurance
rate an element in its fiscal program for it must
be considered in connection with all income tax
provisions imposed on Wage-eaImerS Of other
small-lncOme persons.
We look to this powerful committee for the
courage and the vision to understand that basic
social insurance supplements and buttresses our
free economy, which provides jobs for our mil
lions Of wage-earners. Jobs are our main depend
ence and we look to private industry to provide
them. But to insure us against relief and to IN
sure our free economy against political depend
ence, a substantial social insurance system is in
diSpensable.
This is our first step in postwar planning and
now is the ideal time.

COMMENT ON WORLD
EVENTS

American and British organized Ia
Dor are in full agreement on support of
the International Labor Organization
and in urging that the 1LO be asked to
take part in conferences held after the
war to deal with problems of recon
Struction.
The American Federation of Labor
executive council in its annual report
submitted to the recent Boston cOnven-
ton asked that the United States gov
ernment invite the LILO to participate
in any international agency or confer
ence established to deal with labor and
social welfare problems.
The report, approved by the con
vention, asked further that continued
cooperation and support be given the
ILO and that financial support be as
sured to make possible the strength
ening and development of the work OF
the organization that it may effective
ly promote social security and con
tribute toward raising the standard OF
living for working men and women
throughout the world
Similar action to support the ILO
and extend its effectiveness were asked
by the British Trades Union Congress
at its 10Th annual meeting in Septem
Der. The congress went on record as
expressing its profound qualification
at the continued activity of the Inter
national Labor Organization, extend
ing to all parts of the world"
Governments have been asked tC
arrange for the ILO to take part in
any peace or reconstruction confer:
ences following the war;" the Trades
Union Congress general council said in
Il section of its report which was
unanimously approved by the dele,
gates.
Foremost among its objects will be
the establishment of vigorous
trade union movement in Europe. In
the meantime it is most desirable that
the governments should agree to the
ILO participating in official confer
ences convened in preparation for the
postwar period
The influence of the lilo was "con-
Stantly being manifested' by the pass
ing of laws and agreements benetitinS
and protecting the British workers, the
report declared. AS example, it cited
the Catering Bill based on the Inter
national Minimum Wage Convention
adopted by the International Labor
Conference in 1929: full wages to ship
wrecked Seamen, based on the Unem-
ploymcnt Indemnity Convention of
1920; and the limitation of seamen's
hours of work, based on the Seamen' $
Hours Convention of 1886.
In Il message to the meeting, Ed
ward j. Phelan, acting director of the
ILO said the organization relied on the
continued and effective support of the
great British trade union movement
United American and British labor
support of the ILO is in augury of fur
ther Strengthening and effectiveness of
the organization, which was created in
large measure through the efforts of
Samuel GomperS and the AFL follow
inc the first World War.

There has been a lot of talk about
whether tie American people are get
ting the facts of the war and about
whether they ought to be handed soft
soap or told the truth
There ought to be one rule and that
rule ought to call for truth, except
where military effort would at the
moment be ieopardised definitely.
But that doesn't seem to be the rule
and we do get jokum.
A case of muddling was in the recent
announcement to the effect that filter
centers and air observation posts were
to be abandoned.
Washington was fairly honest about
that, but some local authorities were
not-and army officers got their sig
nails mixed.
The filter center system has been
big affair, nationwide. Air observation
posts have formed huge network.
Washington said this combination ef-
fort was to be put on standby or
alert basis, no longer activated, adding
that in doing this Washington was
assuming calculated risk" Now in
plain words that would seem to mean
that a certain risk continues, but that
it isn't risk enough to justify the enor-
nous effort of maintaining the hitter
center and air observation system III
full action.
The American people could under
,,t NIL
whether to bolster morale or for some
other reason which isn't too important,
sought to make it appear that the ac-
tivation was abandoned because me-
chanical means can do the job better.
Now the two reasons just don't Jibe
one or the other is wrong.
And there is no sense in muddlins
the people by such childishness.
Washington tells us there is a con-
tinuing risk of air raids and for
coastal cities there is undoubtedly Il
continuing risk of shelling from Off
shore.
But is our military authorities think
those risks aren't big enough to war
rant maintenance of a machine requir-
ing the services of several thousands
of men and women Washington prob
ably is acting on better information
than is in possession of army officers
and civilians who are coOped up in
communities far away from Washing
ton.
Perhaps this whole thing is a minor
matter, but minor or not it is some
what symptomatic
The best way to get the best effort
out of American people is to tell them
the truth and give the reasons. Bunk
soon defeats its own purpose and piles
up penalty.
1t is reasonable to assume that our
danger from air raids is less than it
was a year ago or six months ago. 1t
is not reasonable to assume that it has
vanished entirely.
That it has diminished to the point
where some domestic vigilance can be
relaxed, to turn energies TO more need
ed points, seems reasonable.
Certainly many thousands of Amer
leans reached those same conclusions
before Washington announced them.
Perhaps the problems that the globe
trotting Senators brought back are
larger than this one, but many of them
are in the same key. This one is close
to the hearts of our people because SO
many of them have been engaged in the
services now put on Il standby basis.
The "stand-by basis" or "alert," is
in itself a confession. for no such vol
unteer organization can long be held
intact while inactive.
Americans will do Il better job on
Il steady diet of truth. Let's have it
then.-CNIW.
