Organized Labor Expected
To Exceed Record Of Past
Drives In Sixth Wur Loon

only half won, Ted r. Gamble, direc-
tor of the Treasury's War Finance
Division, said here.
Tremendous sums will be needed
for the last half of the confict-the
campaign to defeat Japan, he stated.
While the European war has proven
expensive, almost everything in the
Pacific war will cost more, Gamble
said.
More Equipment Needed
Freight transportation costs alone
will be 25 per cent more to the Pacific
than to France. In addition it takes
twice as many cargo ships in the
Pacific to support a task force of a
given size due to the tremendous dis
tances.
More equipment of nearly all kinds
will be needed-more B-29 superfort-
resses at 100000 each, more PAT
Thunderbolts that cost $4,000 each,
more Nd tanks with bulldozer blades
that cost $67,417 each, more am
phibious tanks, more aircraft carriers,
more supply ships, more gasoline and
oil than it took for the invasion of
Europe.

Field Workers To
Aid Locul Bodies
Helping Veterans
Outstanding Need Is Au-
thoritdtive Information Of
C. |. Bill Of Rights

Chicago (ILNS) - Massachusetts
state committee on veterans rehabili-
tation and unemployment has set up
field staff of men to assist local
veterans information services in de-
veloping aid programs for returning
servicemen. At present the field
workers are visiting 221 communities
in the state where veterans commit
tees are in operation, the Council of
State Governments reports.
Job Procedure Studied
An increasing volume of requests
from local veterans information CEN
ters for help in aiding veterans led
to organization of the field service by
the state committee. The field men
were given 4 weeks of intensive train
ing.
Facilities of the armed forces in
the state where veterans are prepared
for discharge were visited and studied
by the field representatives. All-day
conferences were held with the vet
Grams division of the U. S. Employ
ment Service so that facts regarding
the employment procedure under the
existing law could be told local work
ers who will be advising discharged
veterans about jobs.
The field men studied and discussed
the benefits of the G.. |. Bill of Rights
and met with representatives of the
Veterans Administration to learn
definite provisions of the educational
and readiustment sections of the bill.
In announcing the plan of the state
committee, the chairman pointed out
that an outstanding need in the field
of veterans readjustment and reem-
ployment is the assurance to the in
quiring veteran that the information
he is receiving is authoritative. 1t is
hoped the employment of these field
men, all of whom are veterans, will
prevent the spread of misinformation
and coordinate the work of the vari-
Gus agencies interested in the prob
lem.

Murtin Elected To
Head Pilots Union
Begun Seo-Going Career
At The Age OF l3; ScullY.
SecretdrY-Treusurer

Washington, D. Winding up the
biennial convention of the Masters
Mates and Pilots of America, dele
gates elected as their new president
Captain Harry Martin Of New York,
who began his sea- going career on an
old time sailing vessel at the age of
13.
Martin succeeds Captain James j.
Delaney, veteran officer of the union,
who passed away less than a month
before the convention.
Starting as a deck hand before the
mast 35 years ago, Martin later
shifted to steam-propelled craft, ad-
vancing to a captaincy at the age of
26. For II years he commanded ships
running to all parts of the world.
His last voyage was in 1889, at
which time he became president of
the big Local SO in the port of New
York. In 1910 he was elected secre-
tary and business manager and in the
same year was named national
trustee also. He played a major role
in campaigns to bring the port solidly
under the unions banner, and at the
1912 convention he was elevated to
national vice president.
By acclamation, the convention also
reelected Captain John ]. Scully, IT.
year-od silver haired "dean" of the
organization, as secretary-treasurer.
Scully voiced desire to retire and
hand over the reins to a younger
man, but the delegates would have
none of that
They not only insisted he remain in
harness, but voted him substantial
increase in salary. Secretary-treas-
urer for over quarter century and
vice president before that, Scully has
been with the union for over 55 years.
He has the vigor and alertness of a
man many years his junior.

MIA CHIEF SEES NEED
OF IL MILLION HOMES

Washington, d. C-Construction of
12,6O00O0 non farm houses and
apartment units will be required in
the first ten years after the war to
meet the needs of American families
and to make substantial strides in re-
placing substandard structures with
good homes, MIA estimates.
The estimate, according to MIA
Administrator John b. Blandford, Jr,
is "an earnest effort to Judge the size
of the nations housing needs-not an
announcement of a program"
Blandford said replacement of all
substandard structures would require
l6,l00,0O0 units in all, but MIA fig
ures were based ON the assumption
that replacement would be spread
over a 20-year period.

THE
SEARCHLICH7
PROFESSOR LUTZ MISTAKES

PROFESSOR LUTZ MISTAKES
The New York Times recently de-
voted an editorial to endorsing the
views on postwar employment pol
icies advocated by Prof. Harley L.
Lutz of Princeton.
1t is Prof. Lutz' contention that
there are not enough public works
and development projects in this
country worth undertaking for their
own sake to assure full employment.
Well-informed persons who know
how much there is to be done in the
fields of public activity will not share
this view. But quite apart from this
contention it appears that Prof. Lutz
completely misunderstands the mean
ing of the employment policies which
ought to be applied whenever total
public and private spending is INSULT
cient to maintain full employment.
Professor Lutz insists that to give
people extra purchasing power will
bring about imitation, because no new
economic and social values will be
created by such spending. Prof. Lutz'
error consists in failing to see that
this is true only when there is no un-
employment in the country. The stu
alton is quite different if people are
given purchasing power in periods of
unemployment, when total spending
for goods and services is insufficient.
The additional purchasing power
will increase the demand for goods
and services. This in turn will enable
enterprises with machines lying idle
because of lack of effective demand
to resume or extend their production.
Contrary to Prof. Lutz' view, new
economic values will be created in
this process, and new social values
that is to say, new jobs-as well.
In an argument for tax reduction,
Prof. Lutz stresses the fact that
taxes do not provide jobs, since just
as much purchasing power is with
drawn from the taxpayers as is ac-
quired by the government. Prof. Lutz
may be right on this point Taxes are
not raised for the purpose of creating
additional jobs. Taxes are collected to
finance public expenditures. The prin-
ciple justification for taxes, however,
is that when purchasing power is ex-
cessive they can, by decreasing it,
prevent initiation.
1t is strange that, although Prof.
Lutz' only concern seems to be to
fight imitation, he does not see this
aspect of taxation.
In fact, the difference between Prof.
Lutz and those who advocate com
pensatory employment policies is that

Foremun Fined For
Violating SufetY Code

Washington, d. C. GLNS). First
prosecution for violation of the Dis
trict of Columbia construction safety
code resulted in fine of $50 for l..
A. Penner, foreman Of the Coco
Steel Products Co.
The Minimum Wage and Industrial
Safety Board found that a power
driven saw on a Washington housing
project was not provided with an ade-
quate guard, and Penner pleaded
guilty of ignoring the safety regula-
ton. 1t developed that an operator
of the saw lost finger while the case
was being processed.
The construction safety code be-
came effective last July, after months
of deliberation by a committee repre-
senting the industry, and this is the
first time the board has found it
necessary to resort to prosecution.

ganzed labor is expected to better
its splendid record of previous drives
in the Sixth War Loan, which opens
Nov. 20. The overall goal of the
drive, which ends Dec. 16, is $14,-

The quota for purchases by indi-
viduals is s5,OO0,C00,O00 of this
amount. 1t is hoped that at least
So, 800, 100000 of the individual pur-
chases will be in r bonds.
Individual Quotas Stressed
In announcing the drive Secretary
of the Treasury Henry Morgenthau,
Jr., said that the major emphasis dur
ing the entire period will be placed on
the $5,0O0,OC0,OC0 individual quota.
According to Treasury estimates
members of labor unions have bought
between $10,C00,000 900 and $12,OC0,-
100000 worth of war bonds in the
last 8 years. This is about one-third
of all war bonds sold by the Treasury
During the Fifth War Loan, the
purchases of Series r war bonds by
the Wage-earners and salary-earners
of this country, through payroll saw
ings plans operated in 10000 busi-
ness concerns and in governmental
units, including regular allotments
and extra bond purchases, amounted
to the impressive total of $1,650, ,000,-
000, or 81 per cent of all the E bonds
sold during the drive.

nearing an end, this will mean that

"The winning of the war;" they de-
clared, "is supplemented by an equal
determination ON the part Of the
working people of our country to
formulate peace program that will
spell security for all people in the

Federation spokesmen predicted the
convention will renew labor's no.

time insist that "the government keep

give labor square deal on wages.
Prompt elimination of the Little
Steel" wage freezing yardstick will
be demanded, along with possible
ultimatum to end AFL participation
in the National War Labor Board if
the demand is ignored.
Place At Peace Table
The convention is expected also to
call for adequate labor representation
at the peace table and all possible en-
couragement for the revival of free,
democratic unions throughout Europe.
For the home front, it is antici-
pated the convention will demand re-
conversion legislation on the order of
the Kilgore bill to ease unemploy-
ment in the transition from war to
peace, as well as great public works
projects and other proposals to bring
about full employment.
Plans will be laid, too, for re
newed battle to win adoption in Con
gress of the Wagner-Dingell bill for
"cradle to the grave" social security.

the latter are in favor of fighting
both imitation and defation.
But Professor Lutz is worried only
about imitation, without being con-
cerned about dehation and unemploy-
ment. Still worse, Professor Lutz is
in favor of actively fighting imitation
at the most inappropriate moment
during periods of depression and un-
employment, when the danger of in
fation exists only in his imagination.
