Workers In China Aided ByAFLFunds
Skilled Men Are Struggled Through Japanese Lines
 To Help Win War

Every dollar sent by American Labor to China is a time bomb for democratic victory '' declared Matthew Woll this week after receiving a con- hdential report of a meeting held in Chungking recently.
 From under the noses of the Japanese invaders, skilled Chinese workmen are being smuggled into free China with funds made avail able by the members of the AFL and CIO," the AFL United Nations Relief president explained. 'sWe are not afraid to make this news pub- lic," MT. Woll said. ''The Japanese know that an elaborate under ground railroad system is working against them, but they can't stop it.''
 A Board of Custody of the Ameri- can Labor Fund has been set up in Chungking with Gnu Hsueh-fan, Pres ldent of the Chinese Association of Labor, as chairman. The principal ob- Ject of the Fund is the evacuation of skilled metal workers, carpenters, electricians, lathe operators, and tech nic1ans from Japanese held territories into free China. Dollars contributed by the six million members of the AFL to the National War Fund and their Community War Chests, .rnake this evacuation possible.
 American labor's contribution are equipping and maintaining base hos pltals and mobile food canteens. A special diet for war workers is pump ing vitamins and calories into thou sands of starved Chinese production workers who for six years have built the weapons and the tools that have kept China nation against the over whelming onslaughts of the Nippon csc.
 Through United China Relief. American labor has contributed the equivalent of $4OO, ,OOO Chinese dol lars for food for these workers and for patients in hospitals who are suffering from anemia, malnutri- ton, malaria, tuberculosis and the diseases which result from wound conditions and insufficient nourish- ment.

 AsConsumers'C Guide

Organized labor in Connecticut is being called upon to make donations through the local unions for the pur- pose of publishing a booklet contain ing the ceiling prices of every com modlty covered by the State O.P.A.
 John J. Egan, secretary-treasurer of the Conn. Federation of Labor. has written letter to the affiliated locals informing them of the O.P.A. program.
 His letter, in part, follows:
 1t appears to the O.P.A. that this will be of great convenience to the consuming public and that organ lzed labor IS very large factor of that public.
 ''The O.P.A. is of the opinion that small donation from each Io. cal union in Connecticut, together with contributions from other con. sumner organizations would finance this program.
 If you will send the donation to Douglas Bennett, c/o Office of Price Administration, $ Allyn Street, Hart ford, Conn. (provided you are in ac- cord with the program), I am sure it will be appreciated by that office."

Job Shopping Is Decreasing USES Asserts
F. D. R. Order Also Has Reduced "On The Spot'
 Job Seekers

In Connecticut the most immedi- ate visible affect of Executive Order 9328 stabilizing employment was a marked lessening of job shopping and a considerable shrinkage of S'One the spot" job seekers, accord ing to the Connecticut Employment Security Division.
 This latter feature will un- doubtedly emphasize the general scare ity of manpower as previously job shoppers going from plant to plant have given a false impression of a good labor supply.
 3Inconveniences and some per- sOnal hardships occurred in the ap- pIication of this executive order, particularly in those areas where a wage stabilizatiOn agreement had not been reached. A definite sIackening of immigration of work ers," was also noted by the u. 5. Employment Service.
 Recruiting campaigns to induce wo- men not ordinarily employed to take jobs in the war production program have been organized or are in the pro- cess of being organized in nearly every section of the State. The utilization of part-time workers continues tc expand. Women are being used irl virtually every type of job in many factories and more plants have started to consider women as employees.
 s'TransitiOn to the 48-hour week has not swollen the labor pool throughout the state to any appre- ciabIe extent, although it has prob ably contributed to overall prOduc- tion," says the Conn. USES.
 "This changeover has been gradual, notably in the Hartford area in which one of the largest groups of non-war workers has advanced the work week to AZ hours, under time extension agreement with William c. Ennis, area manpower director.

Only 28q6 Have Had Increase In Revenue

NEW YORK.-An analysis of 10000 questiOnnaires from consumers earning below $l,- 500 a year shows that only 28% have increased their in- come since Pearl HarbOr, Con- sumers Union reported this week.
 In order to meet skyrOcketing prices of food and other necessities, 5 20 of the families earning below $l, 500 states that they are borrow ing, l59c are drawing on their saw ings, 35%o are saving less than they did, 559 are buying less, 68@o are cutting down on amusements, trips, etc., and 67@o are buying more carefully than they did formerly. In most cases, the questionnaires in- dicated that a combination of sev- eral of these methods were in use in one family.
 More than 509o of the middle and upper income class families reported increased income since the beginning of the war, although those in the medium brackets are reporting seri- ous financial difficulties, in some cases due to increased taxes and high costs. This is particularly the case where the family has an income of around $2,OOO.
 A noticeably high percentage is cutting down on amusement and trips. The range is from 49@o for the group over $lO,OOO to Fl % for the $l, ,5OO-$2,OOO group. The lat ter group is also buying more care fully and it is buying less, accord ing to Madelaine Ross, editor of Consumers Reports.

 PRAISES DANAHER
 Gleason stated that Commissioner Danaher did very good job of ad- ministering the acts.
 Danaher stated that the contract between the federal and state de- partments expired by mutual con- sent", because the US. Govern ment wants to federalize the acts. g As Administrator he was paid $l a year by the Federal Government.
 Fourteen State inspectors were en- ployed in connection with the states administration of the federal acts. Under the contract the U. s. reim- bursed the state for work done. The Labor Commissioner stated that an effort would be made to absorb these workers Tn the Conn. Department of Labor.
 A GOOD RECORD
 A total of $518,OOO in back wages were collected for workers under Danaher's administration. All of this was done, he said, with out the employees having to insti- tute any action. Most adjustments were made after bringing the mat ter to the attention of the violating employer, and most violations. said Danaher, resulted from ignorance of the law and of the numerous de- cisiOns of federal courts or agen- cies.'
 Only few employers refused to make voluntary restitutions when in- formed of their violations, and those who took the matter into the courts haven't won single case, stated the Commissioner.
