UNION TRUCK DRIVER
RISKS LIFE TO SAVE
PRECIOUS TIRES

Washington, d. c. (ILNS).-Fran-
els N. Smith, member of Transfers
Local rs, Greenbay, Wis, Interna-
tional Brotherhood of Teamsters, be-
lieves in keeping 'em rolling" even
if he has to risk his life to do it. His
recent action resulted in burned hands
and citation from U. S. Rubber Di-
rector William Jeffers.
Smiths trailer caught fire while on
a trip and his fire fighting equipment
proved inadequate in combating the
blaze. The driver lacked up the heavy
trailer while the blaze roared about
him. His hands were burned-but he
saved the tires. A fire truck arrived
as he reached the fifth tire and he
was removed to a hospital for treat
ment.
Director Jeffers praised the hero
ism of Smith and sent him a citation
which read: "At the risk of serious in
jury, your interest in conserving rub
Der is both unusual and gratifying. /
feel that you deserve to be commend
ed for the very fine spirit which
prompted that act"

measure in aid of agriculture, it
would not solve the many practical
difficulties which farmers face in
meeting their 1943 production goals.
Invitation to Imitation
"In fact, it would operate directly
against the interests of many farmers
by raising the prices of feed which
they must buy for live stock and milk
production
''The passage of this legislation
over the Presidents veto would
directly undermine the national
economic stabilizatiOn program.
Congress must recognize that a
vote in support of the Bankhead
bill is vote to increase food
prices and the general cost of
living for every American and to
invite imitation.
''The AFL and CIO appeal jointly
to Congress to uphold the Presidents
veto in order to safeguard for do
mestic economy against the ravages
of imitation"

Betscher said industry here would
depend largely on the war training
program being operated on East
Chestnut Street for 718 skilled work

No Extra Fuel For
Victory Gardens

Hamilton and Butler County War
Price and Rationing boards were
notified Tuesday that supplemental
gasoline for occupational mileage for
victory gardens cannot be granted.
The regulation, received from Ed
ward J. McGinnis, Cincinnati, district
mileage rationing official, states that
unless the produce of a garden is
made available to the public either by
sale or distribution to the public or to
institutions through organized chan
nels, the cultivation of garden is not
occupational and no supplemental ra-
tion can be issued to enable the ac-

Measure Held Big Initiation Peril; No Benefits Will Be
Derived From Measure, Due To Increases In
Feed Prices Farmers Will Have To Pay

Washington, D. C. (ILNS).-Or-
ganized labor has declared a united
front in support of President Roose-
velt's veto of the Bankhead bill, to
exclude government benefits pay
ments from calculation of parity
prices of farm products for ceiling
purposes.
Following the Presidents veto of
the measure-a veto strongly worded
the American Federation of Labor
and Congress of Industrial Organiza-
tions were quick to declare their
complete support" of the Presidents
action and to demand that Congress
uphold the veto.
The Bankhead measure was de-
nounced by the President in his veto
message as can unWarranted bonus at
the expense of the consumers" and as
threatening to set off "an infiationary
tornado" He said all-farmers, work
ers, managers and investors must
cut Standards of living for the dura-
ton" and added that "after the war
our objective will be not only to re-
store, but to raise our standards of
living" In closing, he said the bill
will make the winning of the war
more difficult and gravely imperil our
chances of winning the peace"
Joint Labor Statement
Supporters of the measure in Con-
gress Immediately announced their in
tention of pressing for passage of the
bill over the veto. 1t had been adopted
in the Senate by vote of 70 to 2 and
passed in the House by standing
vote of 149 to 40.
Labor's united support of the veto
was made public in a joint statement
by President William Green of the
AFL and President Philip Murray of
| the CIO The bill was denounced as a
measure to raise the cost of living and
an invitation to initiation. The state
ment said:
"The American Federation of Labor
and the Congress of Industrial Or
ganizations express their complete
support of President Roosevelt's veto
of the Bankhead BILL
Big Price Rise Seen
"This proposed legislation, if en-
acted into, will admittedly raise the
cost of living for all the people by
several billions of dollars. In the face
of our national policy to achieve sta
bilization of all fronts there can be
no justification for any such action.
"The national economic stabiliza-
tion policy contemplates not only a
stabilization of wages but also, as an
| integral part, the stabilization of
prices. Under the price control law,
the farmers are being guaranteed
their parity prices.
"Under the Bankhead bill cash ben
eft payments given to farmers would
no longer be computed in determining
whether they are receiving parity for
their product. Purporting to be a

Chicago (ILNS).-Job freezing is
just another name for slavery, Prof.
Maynard Krueger, chairman of the
University of Chicago social science
staff, told a panel on war manpower
at the annual education conference of
the Chicago Teachers Union, Local
No. /, American Federation of
Teachers.
He warned that how America fights
the war will influence postwar poll
cies, asserting there is danger that
compulsory labor measures, such as
job freezing and the labor draft, will
become practice after the war.
There is no evidence that job
freezing or the labor draft will in
crease efficiency in production" he
said.
Advancement Baked
Prof. Kruger observed that the job
freeze denies workers their right to
charge to better paying jobs, thus
freezing their wages. Absenteeism in
industry has been magnified, he
charged, adding that the percentage
of absenteeism is small.
Referring to the Austin -Wadsworth
labor draft bill, the professor said
that the technique in Congress is to
first threaten labor with the worst of

UNEMPLOYMET
COMPENSATION
PAYMENTS DROP

Unemployment compensation bene-
fit payments in Ohio dropped to a
record low of 5000, 9,799.23 during
March, of which unemployed workers
in the Hamilton area, comprising But
Ter and Warren Counties received o.
S1616, according to Jessie V. Gustin,
Bureau Of Unemployment Compensa-
tion representative here.
Statewide benefit payments were
81 per cent lower than during March
of 1912, Mrs. Gustin said she had been
informed by Administrator Herschel
C. Atkinson of the Ohio Bureau, and
for the first three months of this year
totaled $769,616 or SO per cent less
than the $6,235,306 paid out in the
first three months Of last year.
Administrator Atkinson informed
Mrs. Gustin further that if benefit
payments were to continue through
the year at the same low level as dur
ing the first three months that it was
possible that the total of benefit pay
ments for 1943 might not exceed So
million. If benefit payments should
fall to such a low level, they would
amount to less than half the interest
which the unemployment compensa-
tion fund will draw during 1943, he
added
New claims filed in the Hamilton
area totaled 40 during March, COM
pared to the statewide total of 1869,
which was % per cent fewer than the
number filed in the state during
February. In the Troy Office of the
bureau there was not single new
claim for unemployment compensa-
ton filed during March, and at Woos-
ter only one new claim was filed.
An average of "A persons per week
received benefit checks in the Hamil-
ton area during March, and the aver
age weekly benefit amount in this
area was $14.16, compared to the
statewide average of $13.20, a new
high for Ohio. The maximum benefit
payment for week of total unem-
ployment in Ohio is SIG.

To Hasten Victory

No American wants this war
to go one minute beyond the
time we can bring 1t to a vic
torious end. To hasten that
victory-to save possibly the
lives of millions of our boys
on our far flung fronts--it is
imperative that every Ameri-
can do his part in the Second

vestment to fit every purse.
The most you can do Is little
enough compared with the sac
rifice offered by our boys in
service. They give their lives

RodZinski has made no secret of
his ambition to conduct the Phil

many New York friends in impor-
tant positions through his decade
with the Cleveland orchestra. His
performances as guest in Manhat-
tan have been singularly uneven,
but often interesting. lit5rsr
His great advantage is an amaz-

chestra; he knows what to do 10
make an orchestra play, and he
does it expeditiously.. J4sS 6sas
His great disadvantage in New
York has been emotional afdity
and extreme nervous tension, the
first possible product of the sec
ond. His best work has been done
in modern music, and in certain
of the classics, In which last lack
of elasticity has been made up by
precision of execution and exact
ness of balance. Beethoven and
Brahms have not been his dish up
