Of counterfeit coupons to extensiv

At the same time, he announce,
five dealers in gasoline had beef
suspended after admitting they ha,
transferred illegal coupons in ex
change for gasoline.
Five Operators Suspended.
The five operators named BY MI
Thompson and their periods of sus
pension are: Richard Pelicano

pended for the duration of gasolin,
rationing.

Isadore Niefeld, 17O4 Benning road

In addition to these a charge
back against r. E. Elliott, Mr..
Thompson said, prevents further
operations by his filling station at
Fourth and Florida avenue NE.
During May, he pointed out, only
"a per cent of coupons totaling
1,053 ,959 gallons were found invalid
in contrast to the counterfeit per-
centage of 7h2 in March and 6 In
April.
Save 52,741 Gallons.
These figures. the director added
demonstrate that at least 52,74l
gallons per month have been saved
for legitimate motorists from black
market activities
Stressing the effectiveness of the
examination program, Mr.. Thomp-
son explained that during the first
half of May 1920 gallons of gaso-
line were sold in exchange for coun-
terfeit coupons while in the latter
part of the period the figure was re-
duced to 9,075 gallons.
Total sales of gasoline in the
Washington area, he continued, show
a decline of 6 per cent between
March and April, which might log
ically be attributed to the increased
efforts OF gasoline dealers to avoid
illegal sales and consequent decline
of sales to other than legitimate
ration holders"

The panel members, along with
others interested in the hearings,

the conditions under which employees
work.

Bates Hits Secrecy OF War Housing,
Cost High, Quality Substandard

"To date eligibility for war housing
has been restricted to workers coming
into the community from outside:
limitation long proved grossly unfair
to resident workers in need of quar-
ters within reach of their war en-
ployment. The new 'H-2' program
makes workers now resident in the
community eligible to occupy the
homes to be built, but without es-
tablishing whether the resident
workers of today are the Immigrant
workers of yesterday.
"This 'H2' program is for construc-
tion of permanent homes mainly for
sale to war workers. Workers buy
ing these homes will buy dwellings of
sub-standard wartime priority con-
struction. They will be forced to buy
these homes at inflated prices, as
evidenced by the fact that the N. H. A.
will officially permit the piercing of
the present $4,000 ceiling to $500
an increase of 25 per cent. Much of
the proposed construction will clearly
be postwar housing for the workers
purchasing it, but without the safe
guards of minimum standards of
space, design, structural soundness
and durability so crucial to the future
growth of home-building after the
war.
"The N H. AS housing program
has been projected and developed be-
hind closed doors. It's programs have
| been laid down without recourse or
appeal available to anyone. Workers,
for whom war housing is built, must
insist upon representative consulta-
tion in the shaping of war housing
plans in every locality and in the ma
ton.
"The American Federation of Labor
calls upon organized labor in every
community dominated by war produc-
tion to assume leadership in insisting
upon the right of open public scrutiny
of standards and procedures used by
the N. H. A. in carrying out this So
called 'H-2' program and of full re-
view of each locality program by a
duly constituted agency Of the locality
concerned"

Convention; Party Leaders Irked
By ClO Tactics

lasting scars which even Hillman's
belated acceptance of Senator Tru
man could not obliterate.
Many party leaders were frank and
open in their condemnation of the
C. I. O.-Communist tactics and ex-
pressed the fear that the support of
the C. |. O. Political Action Committee
would handicap the Democratic ticket
in the elections.
Among such leaders was Mayor
Kelly of Chicago who was booed and
shouted down by the c. |. O. gallery
claque when he attempted to place
the name of Illinois favorite son, Sen
ator Lucas, before the convention for
Vice President. The Mayor was shak-
ing with rage when he left the plat
form.
Hillman ensconced himself in an
expensive hotel suite and sought to
run the convention by remote control,
demanding that party leaders respond
to his beck and call. Only few were
that subservient and these were with
out real influence.
The great majority of the delegates
took cognizance of the fact that the
Chicago Tribune and other opposition
newspapers delighted in portraying
Hillman in cartoons and editorials as
the real boss of the Democratic Party
They went home feeling that the Re-
publicans will try to pin the c. l. O.
label on the Democratic Party and
use it as their chief campaign issue.
| Delegates and newspapermen alike
| agreed that the C. l. O. had made
miserable failure of its first major
effort to demonstrate it's political
strength. AS one newspaperman re-
marked:

were running for dog-catcher in Po-

MORE STUFF NEEDED, SAYS
WOUNDED AFL WORKER

Washington.--An A. F. of L. worker
who lost leg in the Normandy fight

eral Hospital, voiced high praise for
American battle equipment, but en-
phasized that vast amounts must be
turned out for requirements.
Pvt. Clarence l. Osher, member of
Local Z, Wall Paper Craftsmen, A. F.
Of L., when employed at the Imperial
Wall Paper Mill at Plattsburg, N. Y,
said Army and Navy invasion equip
ment was "swell." He was greatly
impressed, however, by quantity of
material lost in a landing operation
such as that in Normandy.
"a tremendous amount of stuff was
lost on D-Day alone" he said. CIV

The artists, all of whom work on
a voluntary basis, are being mobilized
from every section of the country to
tour the hospitals both in their i'm
mediate vicinity and in more isolated
areas.
Russell Smith, director of the Mu-
scum of the Fine Arts School of Bos-

in New England; while Charles

Kenneth Stewart, art director for the
SATURDAY EVENING POST; Law
renee Braymer, Roy Spreter and other
well-known artists will function out
of Philadelphia On the West Coast,
Pruett Carter heads the Los Angeles
group and Ray Sullivan directs San
Francisco artists.
The artists work either singly or
in pairs. Portrait sketches are the es-
tablished form since the servicemen
like to see definite likeness of them
selves, but each drawing is made in
the artists individual style. Some use
charcoal; some brown chalk; while
others work in water colors or pastels.
Each sketch takes approximately 80
minutes.
This new program was arranged
through the cooperation of the Special
Service Division of the War Depart
ment.

Chicago-AFL leaders were highly
pleased with the outcome of the
Democratic National Convention just
concluded here.
Defeat of Vice-President Henry A.
Wallace for denomination and the
choice of Senator Harry S. Truman to
replace him on the ticket were two of
the major detectives Of more than
fifty AFL union representatives who
attended as delegates.
Led by President William Green,
the AFL forces also obtained import
ant concessions in the party platform,
including an implied promise of
prompt repeal of the Connaly- Smith
Act.
Because of the bipartisan political
policy of the AFL, Federation leaders
could not commit themselves to en-
dorse of any particular ticket and
therefore their activities at the con-
vention were conducted with mini
mum of publicity.
Nevertheless, they made no secret
of the fact of their hostility to Wal
lace, whose record showed repeated
acts of discrimination against the
AFL and whose allegiances were OBJ
viously to the left-wing element in
the CIO.
Also, by being photographed publ.
ely with Senator Truman the day be.
fore the nomination took place at q
breakfast conference, President Greer
let it be known that the Federation
favored the Missouri Senator, whose
relations with building trades ano
railroad unions have been highly coop.
erative and whose report on the wal
investigation which he heads paie
| high tribute to labor war record.
One of the leaders in Senator Tru
mans campaign forces was Herbert
Rivers, secretary treasurer of the
Building and Construction Trades De
partment of the A. F. of L., who is {
lifelong friend of the Senator ant
who arranged the breakfast confer
ence between him and President Green
Another leading A. F. of L. figur,
at the convention was Vice Presiden
| Daniel j. Tobin, head of the Team
sters' Union, who made the first sec
onding speech for President Roose
velt and who served as member O
the Resolutions Committee whicl
drafted the platform.
! Perhaps the most significant resul
of the convention was it's fiat repudia
tion of the efforts of the C. 10. Po
litical Action Committee to take owe
control of the Democratic Party.
| The C. |. 0. group, led by Sidne.
Hillman and Phil Murray, went all
out for Wallace and packed the gal
leries with a Communist rabble in al
attempt to force the hand of the dele
gates.
| Their actions aroused deep resent
ment among the delegates and lef
