does not deter us from exposing the
subversive activities of the Commun-
lists who have, in line with their cur
rent strategy, decided to work
through the CIO Political Action
Committee"
All existing units of the CIO are to
be utilized to the full, the report
charges, in carrying out the political
detectives of the political action COM
mittee in the 1914 election.
"Whether or not Philip Murray and
Sidney Hillman knowingly adopted a
program of action for the 1914 cleo
tions which had been set forth by
prominent Communist party leaders
and Individuals" another paragraph
declares, ''the record shows beyond
the possibility of any dispute that
we'll known Communists Immediately
assumed important roles in the reg
ional, State and local activities of the
CIO Political Action Committee. Muir
ray and Hillman may assert that it
was mere coincidence that their or
ganization so completely conformed to
one whose pattern had been drawn by
the Communists. They cannot deny
the presence of well-known Commun-
lists in the ranks of the Political Ac-
tion Committee as it has been func-
tioning from coast to coast during the
past seven or eight months"
In withdrawing from the American
Labor Party, the right-wing faction
declared that the New York State pri-
mary election returns 'leave no doubt
that Mr.. Earl Browder has captured

Opens Hearing With Attack
On Pay Formula, Higher
Living Costs

Washington, d. C.-Warning that
the Little Steel" formula has become
"an economic thumbscrew to torment
the working people of America and
their families" AFL Secretary Treas
urer George Meany called upon the
Government for immediate action to
bring wages back into balance with
higher costs of living.
Opening the American Federation
of Labor's case at a public hearing be-
fore a special panel of the National
War Labor Board, Mr.. Meany pre-
sented incontrovertible facts and fig
ures proving that the cost of living
has riven far more than Is per cent
since January, 1941, "even on the
basis of the sawdust chart of the
Bureau of Labor Statistics.
"When worker sees his pay enve-
lope frozen while the costs of living
go higher and higher and he is forbid
den to take another job where he could
earn more for his family said the
AFL spokesman, 1T hi is condition
causes bitterness and a deep, danger
Gus sense of injustice"
Mr.. Meany insisted that the Gov
ernment had repeatedly pledged itself
to maintain pre-war living standards.
These promises have been broken by
the failure of the economic stabiliza-
tion program, he said. AS a conse-
quence, he pointed out, wage earners
have suffered loss in real income
arising from the rigid application of
the Little Steel" formula.
Since the President of the United
States has the power under the Stabil-
ization Act to correct this gross in
equity, Mr.. Meany pressed for ap-
proval by the special WNLB panel of
the AFL petition that the board re-
quest the President:
Ito modify realistically that por-
ton of Executive Order No. 1925
which limits wage adjustments to the
present limits of the Little Steel
formula.
2-To permit employers to apply
these wage adjustments without OBJ
tanning specific approval in each case

ONE DOLLAR PER YEAR

The New York Times, commenting
upon the primary election results,
said:
"How many Of those who voted the
left-wing ticket in the American
Labor party primaries on Tuesday
were Communists one can't tell. Their
leader, Sidney Hillman, says that they
were honda fide members of trade
unions, genuine liberals and progress
sives, farmers and middle class On
the other hand, their spokesman have
been following the Communist line, or
rather the Communist spiral, pretty
closely for some time. The Communist
party in this locality has disappeared
into something, and the indications
are that it's farmers and SO forth have
disappeared into the A. L. P.
The New York Herald Tribune said
editorially:
''The A. L. P, launched as a sort
of liberal arbiter between the two
major political parties, now becomes a
thoroughly class-conscious d ic
party whose support may come to be
Stunned as was that of the Commun-
ist party of old"

He charged that the acute strain of
trying to make both ends meet is fore
ing many workers to reduce their War
Bond purchases and to cash in bonds
they bought previously.
Lets be honest with ourselves as a
nation" the AFL official appealed.
"Our workers are soldiers of industry,
who have accomplished volume and
quality of production which assures
eventual defeat of the enemy. They
are workers worthy of their hire.
They are the citizens from whose
homes have come fighting men for our
nation. They are the core OF the
democracy for which we fight and
upon whom the future of our democ-
racy depends.
"They must not be bled white now
and junked after the war. The
strength of our country and the main
tenance of our nation depend in great
part upon fulfilling our pledges that
our economy will be stabilized.
''Time is running short. If we are
to fulfill our pledge, we must liqnidate
our earlier hope of rolling back prices
and, instead, proceed to bring wages
in balance with higher costs of liv-

ing"
Taking up new angle of the wage
situation, Mr.. Meany pointed out:
"Our government has completely
failed to give the workers of our ma
ton the benefits of real social insur-
ance which other nations Immediately
increased when war broke out That is
one reason for all the demands for
severance pay, sick leave, group insur-
ance plans and other such costly SUBJ
stitutes which some unions are de-
manding and which some companies
are willing to pay since the govern
ment is paying the bill plus sur
charge for commercial handling and
profits. A far more realistic approach
to this problem would be an honest
above-board pay raise to meet the
higher cost of living"
Mr.. Meany, a member of the War
Labor Board himself, was the first
witness at the public hearing. Repre-
sentatives of the American Federation
of Labor from various parts of the
country were scheduled to follow him
with detailed reports on wage inequi-
ties in their areas. Spokesman for
a number of AFL unions also were
planning to present evidence with re-
gard to wage injustices under the
Little Steel" formula in various spe-
cific trades. The hearing will last
three days after which the panel will
decide whether to recommend further
action by the War Labor Board.
Members of the panel include Ralph
T. Seward, representing the public;
Charles r. Hook, Jr., representing in
dustry, and Edward j. Volz, president
of the Photo -Engravers International
Union, representing labor.
