In the petition to Congress request
is made that the public be informed

The individuals of corporations

'"The real ownership OF Eastern Air

ownership would gain if Ricken-

The amount of subsidy given by the

that company began operation.
THE association or aiiliation of Mr.

and their interest and expectation of
gain should the labor organizations

as advocated by Mr.. Rckenbncker."

These efforts have been kept entirely
free from advertising of any products
manufactured by those companies ana
have been conducted in Il good ed,ca-
tiOnal spirit. No doubt the companies
conducting these campaigns gain Il
great deal by keeping their names be-
fore the public, but it is Il sign of real
progress when companies spend money
in advertising by doing something use
ful and constructive instead of adver-
tising in a way that carries no other
benefits besides throwing the name OF
product upon an irritated public.
The fact remains that educational
campaigns in nutrition of the type
mentioned have done much to bring
the Importance of food for industrial
workers before the public at large, so
that even after this war emergency
is over, the task of providing good eat-
ing facilities and good nutrition infor-
nation for korkerS will become 4

Union Head Assuils
Secretary Knox For
InconpetentcY Talk
Definitely Harmful To Nor.
ale AFGE Chieftuin
Says In Radio Talk

Washington, d. c. ULNS).-Pres-
dent James y. Burns, of the Ameri-
can Federation of Government En-
ployees, in a radio talk on Station
WINK, Washington, took serious eN-
ception to the charge recently made by
Secretary Knox that many Navy De
partment employees hired in recent
months have been thoroughly incOm-
petent."
This stigmatizatiOn of Navy en-
plOyees, President Burns contended,
was unjustified and harmful to morale.
He said that it had brought to his
desk deluge of complaints of Navy
employees, both in Washington and in
the field stations of the department.
He said that in his opinion Navy
employees were giving the most loyal
and efficient service in their power,
but that the Secretary's attack on
them had proved definitely harmful to
morale.
Burns told of the comments of Civil
Service Commissioner Arthur S. Flem-
ming on the Knox statement, and on
the implication that the Navy would
fill civilian jobs with WAVES. For
comparable work, Burns said, it had
been brought out by the Commissioner
that a civilian employee got S1,752 n
year, if she worked overtime, whereas
Il WAVE got $1,926, plus, uniforms,
plus medical care, veterans preference
and various other advantages.
II am in full agreement with Mr..
Flemming's views" said Burns. Il re-
greet that Mr.. Knox saw fit to make a
charge against Navy Department EN-
ployees which can only serve to injure
their morale and their war work.

resignation to President Roosevelt as
one of the four labor members of the
National War Labor Board.
In the capital Mr.. Kennedy's resig-
nation from the WLB was interpreted
In some quarters as a protest against
the boards wage policies, especially in
use of the Little Steel formula" 1t
also was linked with current demands
of John l.. Lewis, UNIV president, for
a 50 day increase for bituminous and
anthracite miners.
Resignation Confirmed Here
At the UNIV offices in the Hotel
Roosevelt, X. c. Adams, spokesman
for Mr.. Lewis, also confirmed Mr..
Kennedys resignation from the labor
board, but declined to offer any fur
ther comment. At his home in Hazel
ton, where Mr.. Kennedy is spending
the weekend, his secretary said:
II can confirm that he has rendered
his resignation to President Roosevelt,
but anything else must come from the
White House"

labor appOinteeS named to the WLB

known that he is opposed To job freeZ-
ing as Il violation of the 18th amend

prohibits involuntary servitude. He
has drawn up Il manpower plan which

WMC order, and is entirely voluntary.
John Fitzpatrick, president of the
Chicago Federation of Labor, said that

You Won't Have Time
BY LUCIA MALLORY

Don't start playing with your doll:
now. Jane!' Mrs. Roberts admonishe,
as Jane began to wheel her baby-dol
through the side doorway. "IOu won
have time. Dinner is almost ready!"
Next door Jimmy Foster was push
ing his toy engine through side door
way, too. This train is going to Chi
cago tonight" announced Jimmy
We'll it had better get started
quickly." Mrs. Foster clapped hel
hands. at will have just time to ge'
to Chicago before dinner is ready!'
"See Mother, there it goes. It's
gone." And with the light of accom-
pliShment in his eyes, Jimmy Foster
picked up his train and followed his
mother back into the house, to wash
his hands for dinner.
The next morning two similar scenes
were enacted. Jane ran out with her
mother to the garage. May l picl,
some flowers to take to Aunt Grace?
she asked as her mother unlocked the
garage.
"Oh YOU won't have time!" her
mother answered
Just one flower, Mother?" pleaded
Jane.
NO, there isn't time"
"Oh hello, Jane" called Jimmy FOs-
ter. I'm going to my uncle's this
morning"
Hello, Jimmy" answered Jane.
We're going to MY Aunt Grace's."
Mother, could take some of those
pebbles from the rock garden to Uncle
Ted?" Jimmy asked as he held the
garage door open for his mother to
back out the car.
You'll probably have just time
enough to get them while | let the
motor warm up. There's small box
by the window" answered Mrs. Foster
And so it goes, from morning till
night. Jimmy Foster is encouraged to
fill in the spare minutes with small
pleasures or little tasks. Jane Roberts
is constantly reminded that the time
she has is insufficient James expert
ences may lead to a feeling of being
crowded or hurried Or again, she may
learn to rastinate-always putting
off things until there is more time"
There won't be time" can so easily
be changed to "I'here will be time"
and in keeping with this latter atti-
tude, children are quick to learn the
real value of tlIIe-tO measure and
judge what can be accomplished in n
certain period. This knowledge is in
valuable in later life, for besides teach
ing punctuality and courtesy through
being prompt and considerate of others
time, it may lead to the accomplish
ment of really worthwhile things.
Jane and Jimmy are much happier,
and Just as Obedient to rules and regll-
lationS, if they are allowed to fill in
the time, just before dinner or just
before starting on Il trip, with some
desired accomplishment. Two or three
pages may be read in good book,
sleeves may be sewed into Il dolls
dress one picture may be cOlOred gay
~ with crayOns or the row of parsley
in the garden may be watered! The
value of minutes is so plainly demon.
Strated this way, too. 1t is worthwhile
TO hear Il child say: "See what l did
while waiting!" or, ''There was just
time enough"

duced to a figure approXimating those
of Sept Is, 1942, when the wage sta
biliZation criterion went into effect as
enunciated by the WLB.'
Data On Rising Prices Given
Mr.. Green said that the committee
had presented to the President data on
the rising prices of food articles that
enter SO largely into the cost Of living
of our workers and our urgent request
that the price ceiling be applied in a
definite and rigid way because the
complaint from the field is that if
wage stabilization is to be Il part of
our program then price stabilization
must parallel it,"
Mr. Green said figures presented to
the President on the rise i'm food prices
in Canton, Ohio, in the last two years
had shown an increase in some items
of more than 100 per cent.
The labor spokesman reiterated pre-
yiouS requests to President Roosevelt
for labor representation on all war
agencies. This time they included in
their request representation on the
staff of Chester G. Davis, Food Ad-
mnistrator.
Other agencies in which labor wish
ed to share authority at the top, Mr..
Green said were the War Production
Board, the Office of Price Adminstra
sion.
I'VE asked that labor be given top
flight representation on these organ
izationS because all their activities
pertain to war work." intcrjected Mr..
Murray.
The CIO chief said the President
had their requests under consideration
and they would confer with him again
next week.
Think President Was Favorable
Asked for his impressions of the
conference with the President, Mr..
Murray replied with Il smile that h"
was IAN oplimiSt.'
Mr.. Green said he felt the PreS-
dents reaction was favorable TO the
labor suggestions. When reminded that
he had gained Il favorable impression
on Il similar visit II month ago Mr..
Green explained that this time the
President had made notes of the sug-
gestions.
Mr.. Meany then ampiiiied the labor
groups list OF prices in an average
market, as submitted to the President.
Newspaper advertisements in Canton,
Ohio, were the source of figures show
ing the rise in staple foods between
January, 1o4l, and January this year.
