|WPB Seeks Solution
|0f Liquor Problem,
Nelson Tells ParIey
By the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, Dec. 4.-The War
Production Board is seeking q solu-
ton to bootleg and black market
liquor problems, according to Chair
man Donald M. Nelson.
In a message last night to a Is
State conference here on LIQUOR
control problems, Mr.. Nelson de-
clared:
1.-THE War Production Board is
cognizant of the danger to liquor
control from black market and boot
leg operations and is studying the
possibility of finding the solution to
the situation
The message made no mention of
what the WPB might do, but liquor
industry experts expressed belief the
only solution within the WPB's
powers would be to relax the 100
per cent war-production schedule in
the Nations distilleries. Such a pro-
posal was rejected in September.
Wanted Renewal Production.
Mr.. Nelson's message was in reply
to a suggestion by the Executive
Committee of the National Confer
ence Of State Liquor Administrators
that whisky production be. resumed
somewhat as means of curtailing
Illicit operations and promoting
temperance.
The Nelson statement came short
ly after the conferees failed to agree
on any specific joint action to solve
their liquor problems. The confer
ence did agree, however on the fol-
lowing general declarations:
l. THAT all Federal agencies eff
fectively enforce regulations promul-
gated by them, including price reg
ulations.
2. That the States should do all
within their power" to protect the
public from undesirable practices
and Legitimate operations induced
by wartime stringencies.
Ask Fair ALLEGATION.
g. That the liquor industry Should
endeavor to secure fair ALLEGATION
OF available liquor supplies as be-
tween the States"
The conferees represented New
York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania,
Maryland, Delaware, Ohio, Indiana.
Michigan, Illinois and the six New
England States.
State Senator John H. Dent,
Pennsylvania Democrat, told the
conference session that the United
States has five-year supply of dis
titled spirits.
While insisting that the liquor
supply was sufficient for all the
Nations needs until long after the
war" Mr.. Dent urged the conference
to recommend rationing by distillers
and declared that maybe lighter
blend is necessary"
Want to Protect Brands.
In reply to questions, he said he
believed distillers were reluctant to
make supplies available because they
wanted to protect their trade labels
or brand names.
Don Fisher, director of the Ohio
of Liquor Control, said
eAAS ollly way llloIC op1ICS Call Uc
obtained is through granting a holi-
day Tin war alcohol production) by
Federal authorities or the release of
more stocks by the suppliers from
present inventories"
He emphasized, however. that ad-
in monopoly States
wanted to back the war effort land
until the Army and Navy have de-
termined that the stockpile is suf-
flcient for their needs we make no
plea for resumption of produc-
ton"

Vacations An Issue As Contract Expires

As The Union Times went to press this week, the dead. line for signing l943 contract between Aircraft Lodge 743. LAM, and the Hamilton Pro. pellers plant of United Air. craft Corporation, Hartford. expired, and negotiations over the vacation question in prog ress since March l3, came to a climax.
 The contract asks for a one week vacation with pay, with one additional day for every year of employment, up to a 12-day vacation.
 Two working plans for the va cations, one for l2-hour day and the other for seven-day week, both designed to take up any slack caus- ed by the time off, have been pro- posed by the Local to the company. Both plans were turned down by the management, which has offer ed no cOunter-prOpOsal.
 Failure of the management to sign the agreement will leave the Aircraft Lodge no other alternative but to lay the case before the U. s. Cancellation Service, said an official this week.
 SET DEADLINE
 Deadline for the completion of the negotiations was originally set tor Friday last week. A three-hour con- ference between the shop committee and the management on that date re- suited in a flat refusal of the con- pany to give an answer on the vaca- tion question.
 This refusal, when 1t got to the ears of the workers, threatened to cause an unauthorized strike.
 Several hundred of them who have been working as many as II out of every 12 days, and in some cases four hours overtime daily, stopped work.
 As the stoppage began to spread, Edward F. Gentle, chairman, and other members of the shop committee were called upon by the company to get the employees back on the job.
 MANAGEMENT PROMISES
 They resumed work after the management promised to reconsider the case and to give its final answer this Wednesday, when the contract expires.
 Members of the shop committee who conducted the negotiations were: Edward F. Centile, chair man; Thomas J. Lynch, Edmund J. Peresluha, Aloysius Benoit, Jas. A. Dowd, Patrick J. Dillon and Walter Nadeau.

National Opinion Divided } Ways On Post-War Problems

DENVER-''Of every three Amer. jeans with opinions on the ques- ton, one believes there will be enough jobs for everybody during the first few years after the war (34%), one thinks there will be some unemployment (32%), and one fears a lot of unemployment (32%)," according to a survey made by the National Opinion Re search Center at the University of Denver.
 Those who voted for Pres, Roose- welt in 1940 are more optimistic about postwar employment than are the Willlxie voters, the survey found, Women fear unemployment after the war more than men do and persons over 40 more than those in the q to 3o age group.
 The people most worried by the prospects of job shortage are those in the ''service group" such as waitresses domestic helpers and beauticians. Forty-two per cent of this group fear widespread unem- ployment, as compared with 29% of the manual workers, 32% of the white collar, business and prOfes- siOnal groups, and 35% of the farmers.
