Firm To PdY Bdck
Wages To 2.734

New York City QLNS).-L. Met
calfe Walling, head of the Wage and
Hour and Public Contracts Division,
U. S. Labor Department, announced
here that after nearly 5 years Of liti-
cation, the Endicott Johnson Corp,
with plants in Johnson City, Endicott
and Binghamton, n. Y, has agreed
to the payment of $6S,593 in back
wages and overtime to 2,734 of its
employees.
In the case, which the U. S. Su-
preme Court decided in favor of the
government, it was assecontended that
the corporation was liable for the
compensation under the Walsh Healy
Public Contracts Act. According 10
Walling, between Oct. 26, 1886 and
Oct. IL, 1888, the corporation had Is
shoe contracts with the government
to more than $5,000,000.
The contracts contained a stipula-
tion providing for a minimum wages
and overtime under the act for all
working on the production
of leather, canvas and rubber foot
wear, but the company maintained
that only those in the shoe factories
were entitled to the benefits.

Judge Criticizes
Mass Triuls In
Conspiracy Cases

Chicago (ILNS). - Federal Judge
Elwyn r. Shaw sharply assailed gov
ernment methods in preparing con-
spiracy cases for trial, as he took
under advisement a petition of the
National Dairy Products Co., for dis
missal of charges of conspiring to fix
prices.
National Dairy Products and 104
other corporations and individuals
were accused of conspiring to fix
prices of American and brick cheese
in an indictment obtained by the Fed
eral Antitrust Division in March,
1912
During the last "a to 26 years,
ever since the prohibition law" Judge
Shaw said, "The general idea on the
part OF the government has been to
try conspiracy cases by putting
everything in a sack and throwing it
up in the air. e
"ln Washington, this killed Judge
Etched in the sedition trial.
"This is not going to be a drastic
case. Before we go to trial we must
have a bill of particulars and if
severance is required for some of the
defendants, it will be granted"
Judge Shaw gave the government
80 days to file a bill of particulars.

NUTRITION AND LABOR
FREEDOM FROM WANT-SEiALL WE WORK FOR IT?

There is a difference between the
present program Of relief for the
people in liberated lands of the world
and past attempts. The present as
stated by UNRRA deals with relief
merely as a basis for a long range
goal of "a secure, an adequate and
suitable supply of food for every
man." 1t is to lay the foundation and
subsequently put into practice this
long range program that the United
Nations met at Hot Springs, Virginia,
in 1943, to form the Food and Agri-
culture Organization.
This organization does not WELD
magic powers. 1t merely seeks coop
Grafton among nations to attain a
goal which mad been mans dream and
prayer since earliest times, namely:
the security of his daily food or as
we call it neutrality-suspicious. From
Want. None has the patent to its GER
tain solution but the goal is worthy
of devotion and labor. The current Of
the times is with US.
The earth is no longer the unwill-
ing hard and capricious mother she
used to be. Modern Science with its
knowledge of artificial fertilizers, soil
conservation, tractors and other farm
implements for the first time presents
man with the vision of an abundant
food supply. This power of man can
not be thwarted. No more than the
power of industrial production can be
thwarted by constant unemployment
in the cities. Expanded production,
universally adequate distribution and
high consumption-these are dictated
by modern science, commonsense and
the needs of humanity. Permitting
high production without adequate
distribution leads to crisis and war
But these can be avoided by inter-
national action employed in a friend
ly spirit.
According to the First Report, the
purposes of the Food and Agriculture
Organizations are as follows:
1-Raising the level of nutrition
and standards of living of all peoples
in manner determined by them
selves.
2-Securing improvements in the
efficiency of production and distribu-

concurred in a recommendation of
President Manbeck that a campaign
be started to move headquarters of
the international union to Washing

general office has been since 1852.
The union also voted to celebrate
it's 130th anniversary Jan. 7, 1915,
and at the same time honor members
of it's Government Printing Office,
newspaper, and job scale committees,
which in the past year have nego-

Ill-Considered" Plan Hit
So much opposition has already
been registered that it is considered
unlikely any legislation can be rushed
through in what is reported to be a
legislative "blitz" planned by the ad-
ministration for the new Congress
when it meets in January.
The AFL declaration put the con-
vention on record as opposed to "any
hasty, ill-considered plan for univer-
sal military conscription for youth"
Instead Of legislation now, the con-
vention asked President Roosevelt to
appoint a national committee repre-
senting the armed forces, organized
labor, management, farm and educa-
tional organizations to "make a thor
ough study of the problem and to
recommend program of action"
Continued Study Asked
The convention also asked its Per-
manent Committee on Education
continue to study the conscription
question in terms of national and in
ternational developments" and that
adequate funds be granted to the
L. S. Office Of Education 'to estab-
lish research department which will
be able to assist in the study"
international Labor News Service
and subscribing labor papers have
b cen protesting against rushing
through new legislation fastening
system of permanent military con-
scription on the nation.
Thorough Debate Urged
On Sept. Is, ILNS pointed out that
advocates of a permanent draft sys-
TEN were attempting to rush action,
as they feared the proposal would be
rejected when peace mindedness
takes the place of war-mindedness
and its hysteria and alterations"
ILNS also said that "such a depar-

black shorts, black cotton town
dresses In inky accents for light
frocks and now-new sheer blacks
for afternoon wear.
The idea Of wearing black for
afternoon Is not new. In fact, for
some years. at this season, when
most women are wearing light,
bright clothes, the ones who make
heads turn have worn cool coal
black for . staccato fashion note.
It's q big city fashion and 4 very

Dorothy Dix Says

Dear Miss Dix: I am 4 man Al
years old. Have been married two
years and am bored to death with
marriage. My wife is a good woman
and am not . philandering hus-
band. Neither am interested In any
one else, but I feel that I can't
stand my wife any longer because
she Is SO possessive that I do not
own my own soul. I cannot leave
the house without her tagging me
If it is possible for her to 60 along.
When We are at home together
she insists on loving me constantly
and wants to be kissed every minute.
My every move must be accounted
for, from the time I leave the office
until I arrive home, or she starts a
fuss and pouts and accuses me Of
being out with other women.
My attempts to carry on have
worn me out. have tried to get
away from 1t by enlisting in the
Army, but I was not physically At
and was discharged. Please give me
some advice. WORRIED.
Answer: There is no possible way
OF shaking posseSsive wife be-
Evening star., 1944-07-05

cause she clings closer than a mus
tard plaster and is twice as irritat-
ing. The only suggestion that I can
make that might relieve the situa-
ton to a certain extent would be
for you to get job that would
take you away from home most of
the time. Being a travelling sales
man, or something wandering like
that. But even at that she would
probably dog your footsteps.
Cases like that are not uncom-
mon, and perhaps there are no men
who are greater martyrs than the
ones who are prisoners of love and
who are stuffed on caresses and sur
feited with kisses until their very
stomachs turn against their too
adoring wives.
1t is strange thing that a woman
has never found out that when she
has to ask a man II he loves her, he
doesn't. and that when she has to
beg him to kiss her, he feels like
biting her instead, and that the more
she follows him around, the more
he Sprints away from her.
