Is ii the purpose of the manage

WHO'S RESPONSIBLE?
Does the company follow the
advice of its public relation coun-
sci and attorneys in formulating
its labor policy?
Why does the firm persist In
It's willful Misrepresentation OF
the maintenance of membership
clause by calling 1t closed shop?
Has any study been made by the
company Of industrial gains obtain
able from a policy Of wholehearted
cooperation with the union?
Why did the company refuse
so long to permit the union to
cooperate in the Red Cross drive
and In securing contributions to
the blood bank:
Is it Montgomery-Ward's policy
10 encourage other concerns like
Armour & Co.. to join in its cam
paign to belittle, misrepresent and
destroy union security and the
War Labor Board?
WHY FIGHT UNITY?
Does the company intend to pro-

Ey the Associated Press,

Louisiana House members issued
3 statement last night expressing
disappointment and disapproval
of President Roosevelt's nomination
Of former Gov. James V. Alfred of
Texas for the Fifth Circuit Court of
Appeals. They said the nomination
has the appearance of political
chicanery" and asked whether it
was an evasion of the Hatch Act.
The appointment. their statement
declared, logically belongs to Loui-
siana. because the vacancy was
created by the death of a Louisiana
judge, Rufus e. Foster.
They added they disapproved
more emphatically, however, for
the reason the Federal judiciary. it
appears, is being used as payoff
for political debts. We view with
alarm any attempted politicalization
of the Federal judiciary and deplore
the circumstances surrounding the
nomination of Mr. Alfred"

Alfred" it continued. las political

(Mr. Alfred was formerly on the
Federal bench0
The statement added that the
Louisiana House members had Of
fered their Senators whatever aid

would file formal statement and
protest with the Senate judiciary

nomination.

delegation the statement said, ARE

fullest with those charged with the
responsibility of the welfare of this

are willing to Cooperate when given
the opportunity, but we cannot re-
main silent and see our State and

A separate statement, signed by
four members of the delegation,

Hebert and Domengeaux, declared

Louisiana's Senators. Ellender and

Supreme Court Justice Archie Hig-
gins for the post. The nomination
of Mr.. Alfred gives Texas two judges

1t said also that the signers were
compelled to take cognizance of the
charges made during the senatorial
campaign in Texas that Mr.. Alfred
was offered as a purge candidate
on the promise that in the event of
defeat he would be returned to the
Federal bench. We cannot overlook
the fact that these charges made

Frank Sinotro
Mobbed By Fans

Boston, December 2. - (UP) -
Swoon- Crooner Frank Sinatra was
to be driven-in an armored car
from his hotel to a downtown Bos-
ton theater today to start a week
of personal appearance after fooling
mobbed by 5000 teenagers upon ar
rival late yesterday.
Despite railroad precautions, Sina-
tra's hysterical girl-fans jabbed their
way through police cordons in an at
tempt to reach their hero, who was
guarded by dozen policemen.
Sinatro was hustled from the sta
ton to a nearby hotel, pursued and
hemrned in by the autograph-mad
fans who loosed kicks and fiSticuffS
at his guards.
IT don't know why I skyrocketed,"
the slight boyish crooner shrugged
''but I'm darned grateful"
He said his wife got the biggest
kick" out of the swooning, gasping
signs with which his fans greet each
song he sings.
"I never feel like swooning," he
said at a press conference. when
the spotlight is on me, I can't see
what goes on out in front anyway. y
The crooner has been classified
la and expects to report for in
duction next month.
Sinatra, whose salary for this
weeks performance is $4,000 anc
percentage, recalled his 1941 Boston
appearance with Tommy Dorsey's
orchestra at $3.50 week. II sang
the same kind OF songs in the same
way and nothing happened" hi

Probe Rise
In Costs

washington, Dec. 2. UP)-A spe-
cial House investigating COMMITTEES
viii ask the Army today to explain
reports that costs Of producing anti
aircraft shells at a Boston plant
rose $1,000 q day after the factory
was seized by the government and
leased to a Texas firm.
Chairman Howard Smith, D., Va
whose select committee Is studying
excess use of authority by federal
agencies, said he hoped that Under
secretary Of War Robert P. Patter-
son would appear personally to tell
the Army's side Of the story. The
committee also was scheduled to
hear a post Office official comment
on charges that mail had been di-
verted from a strike-bound Port
land, Ore, plant in 1910.
Testimony of increased costs In
making the three-inch shells devel-
oped yesterday during committee
questioning of M. c. Dodge, presi-
dent of the s. A. Woods Co., Of
Boston. The firms two plants were
seized by the Army on presidential
order in Sept. 1912 after the COM
pany defied a war labor board order
to include maintenance Of member
ship clauses in union contracts. The
Army subsequently leased the two
plants to the Murray Co., Dallas,
Tex.
Dodge charged that the change
over had brought these results:
l. The Texas firm was given
from 1928 and $40 for each shell
produced as compared with the $2.72
which the company had been get
ting and the $252 it would ask
under a New Deal pending at the
time the plant was seized. The COM
mittee chairman figured this was
a difference of $4,000 a day on basis
of the 10000 shells a day produc-
ton figure established by S. A.
Woods.
2. Shell production decreased in
the IA months that have elapsed
since the seizure.
3. Users of S. A. Woods wood
working machinery faced inability
to get replacement parts because
the Murray Co. turned facilities of
the so-called commercial paint over
to Radar Production.
Matt B. Jones, Jr., counsel for
Dodge, told the committee that the
change-over at the commercial
plant jeopardized the war effort.
Charges against the post Office
were voiced by John A. Barr, labor
relations manager of the Mont
gomery-Ward Co., in giving the
background of labor troubles at
Wards Portland, Ore, plant. He
charged that in 1910, while the COM
pany was involved in dispute with
the AFL's Transfers Union, the
post Office department had diverted
a substantial portion of deliveries to
an inaccessible warehouse which
the government had leased. The di-
version came several months after
the teamsters had struck and while
mail was the only available carrier,
he said.
EFT obviously was an act in sup
port of the union" Barr declared.
