HOPE HELD
FOR SUPPLY
farm LABOR

In an article titled But We Wont
Go Hungry" in the May issue of The
American Magazine, Harry L. Hop
kins, speaking with the authority OF
the Presidents right-hand man, has
these reassuring words to say to farm
|ers about their labor supply:
1--WE cannot afford to draft skilled
farm hands. Their work is just as
important as fighting. Too many of
us have been under the impression
that anybody can milk and plant and
harrow and harvest. The truth is
that certain types of farm work re-
quire a high degree of skill which it
takes years of experience to get.
However, there will be plenty that
can be done by people who are willing
and able to perform hard work under
the direction of skilled farmers. High
school boys and girls will help. Wom-
en- will be recruited. Volunteers will
be organized and trained and only
the competent will be sent into the
fields, for farmers don't want to be
annoyed by deluge of patriotic but
people who come bounc-
ing out to the farms, eager to help
out, but who collapse after few
hours. Farming is no pink tea"

SEASONAL
WAGES fixed
BY WI. B.

Employers in Colorado, New Mex
leo, Wyoming, Utah, Idaho and Mon

"a new season, pay rates in excess OF
those paid at the close of the previ
Gus season without approval of the
regional War Labor Board, Charles A.
Graham, chairman, has announced
Some employers have been operat.

they could, at the beginning of each
season, establish rates for their en-
ployes at levels not exceeding those
which prevail in the area for similar
classifications without board APPROX
al, Mr.. Graham said
"This assumption is incorrect" he
stated, insofar as the establishment
of such rates would result in increas-

Three FIRMS
CON troll VITAL
Materials

WASHINGTON. - David Podell
chief, complaints section antitrust di
vision, Department of Justice, de
clared before senate committee that
from now on it will require all the
copper, domestic or otherwise, which
is available to the United States to
supply our war requirements and the
minimum of civilian demand.
He said that the copper industry OF
the country is virtually in the control
of three companies, whose combined
production aggregates about 80 per
cent of the present supply. The com
panies were named as Anaconda, Ken
|necott, and Phelps Dodge.
This situation exists, Mr.. Podell as
serted, despite the fact that there are
numerous copper mines held by indie
pendents, some of which could go into
immediate production, and others
within a few months. Yet, he said
these mines are not in operation; and
in some instances, when owners have
attempted to obtain some help from
the government, they have been 'ef-
fectively blocked" in their efforts.
Mr. Podell was one of three wit
nesses who appeared before the Scrug-
ham subcommittee of the senate spe-
cial committee on small business, the
other witnesses being F. A. Aver,
chief, production section, copper di-
vision, War Production Board, and H.
0. King, director, copper division,
War Production Board.
In addition to the copper situation,
Mr.. Podell submitted the results of
Investigations made into conditions
tin and the tin cartel, alum
mum and alunite, and other critical
metals and minerals. He made the
following statement:
"The scarcity of raw materials goes
much further back than the present
war. For instance, take aluminium
first on the list of scarce
metals. The Aluminium Company of
America and foreign cartels have had
he world supply of bauxite cornered
or two generations before this war
and the development of other raw
for the production of alum
mum has been stifled or at least has
zen permitted to lie dormant while |
he cartels have produced just so
much and no more for the world mar
lets. This is true of almost every |
,ther scarce and critical material"
The subcommittee was advised that
he present supply of tin in the coun-
ry sis not discouraging for the short
I'm, because of the low rate of con.
umption and the considerable stocks
n hand"

problems" with which the school is
concerned, to be solved in part, we
suppose, by putting a uniform on
George McNear and couple of stars
on his shoulder, and letting him run
the railroads like they ought to be
run-a soldier with his bayonet in
every caboose!
| The school, it developed, had not
been content to have the brass hats
wait till der tag" when civilians like
Franklin D. Roosevelt and Donald
Nelson and Paul McNutt had, in the
opinion of the public, made a com
plete mess of things. PM reveals
that out of the school went propagan
da against the Pepper-Tolan-Kiigo
bill which provides for a unified civil
ian command over manpower and war
production.
A number of senators and repre-
sentatives voiced desire for an in
vestigation of the school. 1t is note
worthy that the PM expose caused not
a ripple of concern among that noisy
group of congressman who want TO
have continuing congressional in
quiry into every civilian agency, and
who constantly shout "bureaucrat" at
the civilian employees and officials of
our government. There was no con-
certed outcry of horror from the 5tal-
wart defenders of democracy on Capt.
toll Hill who want to preserve free
enterprise" by drafting labor.
We have no recommendation for the
administration. 1t seems to us that
the facts contain their own recon-
mendation to the American people
For General Somervell and his swivel
chair brass hats in Washington,
sound recommendation would read
something like this: win the war
and keep out of civilian politics"
1t does seem to us that If these
men would spend as much
time plotting against Hitler, Hirohito
and Mussolini as they are scheming
to conquer and Cypress the American
people, we would have shorter war
and better peace.
For all we know, Somervell might
do an excellent job leading a task
force somewhere in the South Fa-
cific."

"The sale or distribution of prod

equally true of all other distributive

clearly has excluded your present dis
tributiye activities from the list OF
non-deferrable activities. l would

cept those engaged in occupations
listed as nondeferrable, remain on
their present jobs until a specific need

Mr.. Collins has advised in referense
to my requests for additional gaso-
line and tire allowances for Farmers
Union officials and organizers as in
the attached letter from Glen W.
Collins.
1t has been my contention through
out this long controversy that the
best way for the farmers of Montana
to obtain adequate supplies for essen
tial activities in the production of
tives upon the local rationing boards
throughout Montana. AS you know,
the present rationing boards in Mon
tana were organized by Mr. Tom Cav
erly an attache of the state Repub-
lican administration In most in
stances these rationing boards are
giving valuable service, but it appears
that the needs of the farmers are
not adequately taken care of, largely
for the reason that farmers do not
have sufficient representation upon
the boards to make their require
ments known.
| have obtained from Prentiss
Brown a directive to the state director
of Price Administration in Montana

Farmers Union to be called into con-
ference to determine what commun-
tiles should have Farm Union mem
bers upon rationing boards | have

ton on local rationing boards where |
their grievances and complaints may

Dear Senator Murray:
On March 20, you wrote me stating

sets forth the general principles as
stated in the regulations covering al
lowances to officials apd organizers
of the Farmers Union He states the
principles involved very we'll To
give you still further information con-
corning the limitations under which
such requests may be granted, | am
quoting from official publications
from the Legal and Rationing Divi-
sions in Washington:
"Since many different operations
are performed by the (farm) co-opera-
tive, eligibility of its employees and
representatives for mileage rations
can best be determined in reference
to their particular functions. Thus,
experts sent out by the cooperative
to advise the farmers on matters OF
production may be performing serv-
ices necessary to the operation of the
farm and hence might be eligible
for preferred mileage. Tie persons
who buy the farmers produce may be
highly skilled in grading, inspecting,
classifying or selecting. If so, it is
possibel their services may be neces-
sary to the operation Of sarln if the
farmer connot market his products
without such aid. :"
"The question therefore, is whether
the travel for which preferred mileage
rations sought are for purposes "nec-
essary" to the operation or function
ing of such. . :. establishments"
IAN organizer of the Farmers I'm
ion is not eligible for Preferred mile
age as a representative of a labor
who travels to, from, OF
between industrial or extractive estab-
lishments."
Farm co-operatives as a unit are
not deemed agricultural or Industrial
establishments. In ascertaining, how
ever whether its representatives may
be eligible for preferred mileage, it
is necessary to determine in which of
the numerous functions of the coop
erative the applicant is engaged,
where he travels and for what pur-
pose"

Admiral Stirling denies all of the

with respect to the claim of
desertion there is in existence a
