considerable extent, dependent upon the type of
stewards who represent them.
PLANS
Most important of the plans for the coming
stewards meetings is the Master Contract, which
is used as the basis and model for all Local IL
contracts. We have planned to make the contract
study lively and realistic, and have a new idea
which we believe will prove highly interesting and
instructive to everyone.
In order to dramatize the contract study, we
have planned for model contract negotiations with
various ones who may volunteer, who will be
appointed to conduct the negotiations with sew
era of the Local IL representatives, who will try
to assume the viewpoint and behavior of some of
the plant managements with which we have ne
gotated in the past
1t is quite task for a unon-minded repre-
sentative to initiate management, particularly
with which we have had occasion to deal; but with
little parctce am positive we have one or two
who will be able to give a reasonable authentic
reproduction.
Surprising as it may seem, there are many
points of similarity between various plant man,
agements' behavior when conducting contract NJ
gotations These similarities and other impo s
tant points will be emphasized in our meetings.
and believe / am safe in saying that we will put
on meetings tha twill prove to be the most inter
esting ever conducted for the stewards.
After the first meeting, we will want your
criticisms and suggestions in order that we may
improve upon our performance. We will make
every effort to reproduce many of the various
conditions which have occurred in negotiations in
many of the plants, and hope that those who have
never had any experience in negotiations will
make it point to attend every meeting.

panies turned down women avail
able. How the plan as worked
in Buffalo is difficult to ap-
praise. Reports are slim. More
over, thousands of students were
hired this summer aircraft.
Opening of school provides
further test for the Buffalo plan.
Employers as a whole accepted
the Buffalo plan, it was learned.
They even agreed to the commit
tee sending inspectors into the
plants where it had received re-
ports of improper labor use. One
company had falsified the weight
of the goods produced. The COM
mittee sent a man in to take
look. He glanced at a part said
to weigh so pounds-"No woman
could lift that" said a manage
ment spokesman--and easily lift
ed it. 1t weighed 10 pounds.
Women were employed.

Since the stewards are the

will be well attended. After all,

Dor draft.
From the War Manpower Com
mission, too, come unofficial as
surances that Baruch is trying
hard to make labor conscription
law unnecessary. The Baruch re-
port inspired the Byrnes plan
for labor priorities and controls
on the west coast. 1t goes into
effect Sept. Is and if successful
may be adopted elsewhere. The
idea is being carefully matured
that the only alternative is a la
Dor draft.
Now we have no pipeline to the
venerable Baruch mind. We have
great respect, by the way, for
it's agility and smoothness. But if
Bernard Baruch has been one of
the main beind-the-scenes fig
ures plugging for a national
service act all along-as is claim
ed by some-and if he wanted to
see congress put over such Leg
islation along about December,
he might well do just what he is
doing.
Then, without any national ap-
plication of overall planning in
tegrating manpower With pro-
duction, wages, housing, health,
transportation and such facilities
as child care, and with arbitrary
controls having failed, he could
announce publ ,ly in few
months that the Brynes plan had
not solved everything, and that,
sad as it made him to do it, he
would have to propose national
service legislation. 1t -'ould be
very effective,
INTERESTING REPORT
The Baruch report is an inter-
esting, reasonably critical report,
Judging from the dope stories on
il, and it repeats much of the
valuable summation on manpow-
er issued previously by the Kill
gore and Tolan committees. 1t
recognizes, for instance, the in
efficient use of labor in many
plants, and proposes that the old
cost-plus basis of war manufac-
ture be changed to fixed cost,
putting labor use on an incentive
basis.
Under the Byrnes plan hiring
of workers will be controlled by
priorities committee composed of
VINO, WPB and procurement
services spokesman. 1t is pat
termed after tn Buffalo plan
which went into effect June 15,
except that it applies to women
as well as men. A worker must
go to the job to which he is re-
ferred, even at lower pay--in
Buffalo, only about 11fo We're at
lower pay, according to uncon-
firmed reports of early weeks of
application, with many more go
ing to new jobs at higher pay.
In Buffalo the prime job was
to obtain workers for steel,
chemical and all heavy indus
tries. The higher wages of the
aircraft industry attracted the
men, and women couldn't do the
heavier tasks. Yet aircraft COM

relatives and friends plus the extraordinary business

How We Helped

POWER GENERATION. More than one
half of all the electric power generated by electric
light and power companies in the U. S. is pro-
duced by generators manufactured by General
Electric.
And such has been the Improvement in the
eflciencies of turbne-d driven generators that if
the electric power used in 1912 had been pro-
duced with the machines of 1924, it would have
required more than million extra cars of coal
and one hundred and forty thousand men JUST to
mine and haul this extra coal.
POWER DISTRIBUTION. To have ample
power available wherever new war plants have
sprung up requires large and highly efficient
transforming and switching equipment and the
solution of highly intricate engineering prob
lens. General Electric has had hand, and
head, in the development and manufacture of
much of this equipment. :

Chairman Belts of the commission wrote an IL

conclusion that to grant the Japanese a permit the
states farming industry would be faced with tragic
consequences.
The opinion pointed out that language OF the
articles of incorporation was sufficiently broad to
allow the Japanese to engage in the lease and pur
chase of lands and businesses In perpetulty.
Chairman Belts, in the opinion, gave evidence
of his readiness to swords with officials OF the
War Relocation Authority by asserting: "There is

of representatives of the WRA to establish the
Japanese in Arizona in large numbers"
