The Presidents Message to Congress
BY PHILIP MURRAY
President, Congress Of Industrial Organizations

mobilization Of our nations resources they pro-
ceeded to recommend the quack medicine of q
National Service Law.
To this hue and cry that has arisen recurrently,
the CLIO has demonstrated that the answer must be
the coordination of the services of the men and
women of the country for war production with con-
tract allocation production programmng, and other
aspects of our production activities
This task only be met through true
central coordination and planning on the part
of the agencies of the government responsible
for war mobilization.
American labor during the war perod-in the
face of all the miserable absence of planning the
part of the executive agencies-has continued to
establish new records of war production unsur-
passed in history. At Teheran toast was made to
the production of American workers. Every day
production records broken through the sweat
and toll of American workers.
The CLIO has consistently urged that apart
from the evils inherent in the attempt to resort
to compulsory labor, the approach embodied in
National Service legislation Is Intellectual and
actually contains dangers of further complicat-
ing rather than aiding manp0wer situation.
The CLIO therefore has been opposed to and will
continue to oppose the enactment of any National
Service legislation.
The CIO news. (Cumberland, Md.) 1942-????, 1944-01-17

The Clio subscribes completely to the Presidents
challenging call for national unity We have been
urging since the outbreak of the that there be
q discontnuance of politics-as-usual and business
asusua practices in order that the action of all the
people and the policies of government be deter
mined by single budapest, namely, what is best
to win the war;
The Clio pledges its complete support to the
efforts of the President at the conferences at
Cairo and Teheran to obtain the unity of action
essential for a speedy victory over the Axis
forces and to establish a durable and lasting
peace for the people of the world.
We also welcome the Presidents clear-cut decla-
ration in favor of assuring serviceren the right to
vote through federal action, as advocated by the
CIO
The Presidents message exposes the glaring
and miserable failure of Congress to combat in
faton. The President appeals for a realistic tax
law and continuance of the law for the renegotia-
ton OF war contracts to take undue profits out of
the war. The President appeals for cost of food
law to place ceiling on the prices which con-
sumner will have to pay for the food he buys These
were the detectives of the original national economic
sterilization policy. The vigorous control of prices
was the commitment of the law of October 2, 1912.
But while wages have been frozen-and It
should be noted that the President does not
have to appeal for any law to accomplish this
task, it has already been done-the Presidents
appeal to Congress is a recognition that the
solemn pledge that has been given to the Amer
lean people regarding effective price control has
not been fulfilled.
Soaring prices, black markets, and frozen wages
create the just and burning grievances of the Amer
lean workers. These are the facts which they face
against the outrageous and extortionate profits
that being extracted by corporations out of war
production
The CIO therefore subscribes completely to the
imperative need, expressed by the President, of
obtaining laws which will tax undue profits out of
the and really control prices for the benefit of
the American people.
For the past two years. whenever the legis-
lative and executive agencies became frustrated
out of their own failures to accomplish total

ARMY ADOPTS
SAVIOUR WEEK

WASHINGTON, July 60 Up -
The Army, setting the pace in its
campaign to step up production Of
critical equipment and supplies,
ordered a six hour increase to-
day in the working week of all
Amy service forces personnel in
he adquarters organizations and in
arsenals and dopots with a back
'og of unfinished work. They will
have nine Lour day, 54-hour
week.
Effective Immediately, 1t. Gen.
Brehon Somervell also banned all
leaves of absence or vacations for
the 100000 military and civilian
personnel of the services forces.
The move followed repeated urg-
ing from the military that civilian
industry step up production. Ear
l-er this month the war depart
ment declared its monthly goals
Of war goods deliveries are not
being met and two weeks ago as
sistant secretary of war Robert
Patterson reported that production
Of army weapons and equipment
was $500, 1000, 900 behind schedule in
the second quarter of this year.
The service forces, which Som.
ervell commands, have 425,0O0
military personnel and $4,000 ci-
william employees in the United
States. Not all Of these are affect
ed by the order, and there was no
immediate indication of the total
rumber whose work week would
be increased ito meet the critical
situation in r e army service
forces arising from an accumula-
ticn of unfinished work.
Definitely affected, however, are
the 10000 military and 10000 civil
ian personnel Of all headquarters
organizations, including the serv-
ice forces headquarters and tech
neal and administrative services

mately $4,000 by the end of the

bond officer for the office.
The sales to date have included
payroll deductions, he pointed
out. The drive will continue

district in the Wilmington area was
calculated at 93.2 in subscribing
to payroll deductions. Eleven and
three-tenths per cent of the. total
salary of the employees are being
put into war bonds, Major Werner
said.
The percentage is slightly below

per cent deducted from April salar-
les of the personnel.

cipation. At that time, 90 per cent

The personnel at the county
home now includes the superinten-
dent, foreman. matron and assist
ant. matron of the juvenile home,
nurse, and night watchman.
Considerable interest was mani
fest early last spring in improve
ments at the home, mad in the &C
QUESTION of additional competent
personnel. The repairs, the pur-
chase of new equipment, and the
naming of a matron for the juve-
nile home constituted the county's
answer to the criticisms that were
leveled
