Labor Women Ask
For Rent Control
City Landlords "Gouging. -
Say Auxiliary Groups Of
AFL, CIO, Roll Union

West Park, n. Y.-ResOlutiOns call
ing on Congress and the Office of
Price Administration to fix rent cell
ings in New York City and effect an
immediate rOllback of consumer prices
to the September, 1912, level, were
adopted here at a regional conference
of wOmen's groups of the American
Federation of Labor, the Congress of
Industrial Organizations and the
Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen.
Two hundred delegates to the con-
ference, sponsored by the WOmen'S
Trade Union League of New York
City, approved the resolutions, which
also asked the Government to begin
overall rationing of all consumer
goods, to enforce price ceilings by
means of a more aggressive policy OF
the OPA, to establish ceilings for res
taurant prices, and to base taxes on
ability to pay.
"Over-all rent controls in New York
City are necessary" the resolution
stated, because voluntary control has
been failure. Landlords have in
fiicted rent raises and rent gOuging is
going on in many parts of New York
City, including Harlem and Long
Island City"
For Wide Use of Subsidies
To effect the rollback in consumer
prices, the conference recommended
| 1.-The use of whatever Government sub
tn hlnu
of living in line with the wage stabili-
zation Of September, 1912" The reso-
lutiOns said that Subsidies will cost
less than the uncontrolled rise of
prices"
The conference, which opened at the
Hudson Shore Labor School, was at
tended by delegates from New York
City and Buffalo. Baltimore, Washing
ton, New Jersey and Massachusetts.
The underlying theme of all confer
ence discussions was 1.-The consumers
role and responsibility in the war"
Congressional support of President
ROOsevelt's wage and price stabiliza-
ton program was recommended in the
conference resolutions.
| 1--WE are shocked at the way our
Congressman have been sabotaging the
entire home front program" the reso-
lutiOns said. "They have not repre-
sented the interests of the people who
elected them. and their votes have de-
layed and Obstructed the OPA's price
control program"
At the same time the conference
called on Congress to provide addi-
tiOnal funds for operation of the OPA
and to institute government control of
all food distribution.

Our second meeting on Food and
Health opens with reports by those
who had been given assignments. After
the history of the battle against scurvy
is fully discussed, review is made of
the important points everybody should
know about preservation of this vita
min from destricution In cooking and
other steps in the handling of it. The
foods containing it should be then re-
viewed from the standpoint of price,
seasonal availability, ratiOning and
general nutritional qualities. If there
are some in our group who do not like
a common source of this vitamin, such
as oranges, advantage should be taken
of this to point out how ones peculiar
taste may be readily satisfied and ones
health fully protected by an alternate
source. The item cited on Page IA of
Nutrition For You" should be CON
sidered and discussed. The idea OF
alternates is important enough to be
driven home often and especially in
wartime.
The discussion should then continue
with the story of bread and cereals

Appeals For Relief
For Food Industry
Detroit Mayor Says Short
age Of Mdnpower Is
Big Problem

DetrOit-NIayOr Edward J. Jeffries
asked Federal agencies to help the
food distribution industry to avert
what he described as the possibility of
complete breakdown of the business
and serious food shortage.
The plea was directed mainly to the
War ManpOwer Commission and the
War Labor Board as the two agencies
which could best help the trade to re-
tain its employees and recruit more
workers.
Representatives of the food trades
city officials and heads of several Fed
eral agencies meeting here heard
spokesmen for the trades express
alarm because they said stocks were
abnormally low, bad weather had
ruined crops and reduced acreage, and
bad weather in the fall might be close
to disastrous.
But it was said that the greatest
problem was manpOwer all along the
line from the producer to the retailer
Several carloads Of produce arriving
recently at the Detroit market spoiled
because Of lack of labor to unload
Produce receipts in Detroit in Ma!
were said to have been 20 per cen
less than in May, 1942, despite pOpu
lation increase of 100000.

SfiIPYARD WORKERS
UNITED IN DEMANDING
INCREASED WAGES

Washington, ID. G. (ILNS).-The
Administrations wage stabilization
program faces another attack from
union representatives of 100000 ship
yard workers demanding wage ad-
justments to meet increases in the
cost of living.
These demands are involved in the
biggest wage case ever to reach the
War Labor Board. Representing near
ly all of the employees in 1SS ship
yards We're the American Federation
of Labor Metal Trades Department,
the Industrial Union of Marine and
Shipbuilding Workers (CIO), and the
International Association of Machin-
lists independently.
The case reflected the increasing
pressure on the Administrations wage
stabilization program, developing while
wage disputes involving $4,000 United
Mine Workers and 100000 non
operating railway employees still
awaited final settlement.
Although the AFL and CIO unions
have been bitter rivals in the ship
yards, they were united in plans to
demand wage adjustments in line with
changes in living costs. Neither group
however, planned to ask specific
amounts over the $12O hourly rate
now in effect on a national scale fOl

NUTRITION AND LABOR
OUTLINE FOR NUTRITION DISCUSSION GROUP

and their role in our diet. Pages 10 to
the bottom of IA In Science and Super
stitions I'm Our Daily Food" should be
assigned for home reading and group
discussion. Members should he asked
the quantity Of bread consumed by
each, kinds Of cereals eaten and their
tastes with regard to white or whole
wheat bread. Items on Page 13 of
Nutrition For You should be exam
ined and the causes for vitamin-B
shortage according to Vita-Min-GO re-
suits should be analyzed. On the basis
of that list recommendation should be
made in those cases for correcting the
respective diets so as to make up for
the deficiency This should be done on
an individual basis for few members
so as to arouse interest and to be Of
immediate help in solving personal
problems.
A third essential component of
breakfast is milk, either with or with
out cereal. A discussion of it is de
sirable at this point so as to complete
the basic pattern OF our most common
beakfast The section of Science and
Superstition in Our Daily Food" from
bottom of Page II to the middle of
Page 20 deals with this subject and
should be the next assignment.
In connection with the value OF
milk, Lessons and 5 of Nutrition
For You" are to be discussed from
the viewpoint of the yitamins in which
milk happens to be especially rich. The
unique position of milk is to be dis
crssed, the meaning of protective
food and the reasons which make milk
the foremost protective food of Oul
diet are to be fully discussed.
Great stress is to be laid upon the
value of milk in contributing calcium
to the diet. The role of calcium il
rickets and soft bones Is to be con
sidered and pains should be taken t.
suggest desirable alternates for those
people who do not habitually drinl
milk 1t should be pointed out tina
milk contains other factors and vir
tues, especially protein and VitamiI
B2, to be taken up in later discussions

1--WE, the people of the United States.
1856 years ago, these simple words be-
gan Americas warranty of freedom.
Today we are deep in war-so that
this warranty may endure. Should we
win-and win we must-whom will it
profit?
Are you a farmer, and do you love
your land? Are you a worker, and do
you cherish your hard-bought home?
1t will profit you that no man, without
due process, can wrest your home, your
field, your plow from you.
Do you worship God in church, or
in a synagogue, or in the secret places
of your heart? 1t will profit you that no
heathen hand can desecrate your affairs.
Do you impart the truth to the printed
page-or do you seek it there? 1t will
profit you that the presses will not be
shattered in the night.

FATE OF NYA MACHINERY
RESTS WITH HOUSE

Washington, ID. c. ILNS) .-Allot-
ment of the NYA's $97 100000 worth
of idle machinery to vocational train
ing schools or the Army and Navy ap-
peared possible with passage of the
McKelar amendment to the deficiency
appropriation bill i'm the House
Meanwhile, the agency has received
a grant of four and half million dol
lars to insure liquidation within six
months, superseding a previous grant
of three million which would have left
employees waiting months to get paid
for accrued leave, since it was ear
marked only for rent and other COM
mitments.
The 10000 pieces Of machinery now
idle in $50 centers, includes 10000
lathes, milling machines, punchers,
drill presses and grinders, $500 weld
ing machines, 1000 radio sets, and
several thousand tools.
Aubrey Williams, NYA administra
partially self-suppOrting through dis
tribution of finished machine parts
made by trainees-tO navy yards.
He estimated that about $1SOOO,OOO
was saved by the Government by NIA
trainees in 80 communities by this
means, and said this represented 80
per cent return on the Governments
investment
Before closing, we We're sending
10000 parts a day-output of 40 shops
to the Rock Island Arsenal and
about 5000 daily to the Brooklyn
Navy Yard" Mr.. Williams said. Our
local center, under contract made
eight weeks ago, had already deliv-
cred 1900 parts to Norfolk and had
scheduled for $1,000 annually. This
cash savings was supplemented by a
steady flow of trained defense workers
to war plants" he added.

Do you talk with your neighbors in

of the town hall? 1t will profit you that
no bludgeon can drive you into secret
cellars.
Our Constitution assures us these
things. And these we fight for.
In many ways we fight. Some in small,
silent ways-when our sons have gone.
Some in large, heroic ways-in the roar
ing of wings. Farmers fight in the rows
of corn; writers under the lamp; min
listers from the pulpit's height.
Not the least of these are the men Of

them.
Proud to pledge ourselves still further
