Inc. To Bredk Up
Car Monopoly
Violdtes Antitrust Act BY
Monopolizing Sleeping
Cor Business

Philadelphia (FP). Pullman Inc.
the holding company whose subsidi
aries manufacture and operate Pull
man cars, must give up one business OF
the other, special 3-man federal court
ruled here.
The court found Pullman Inc. three
subsidiaries and 81 officers and direc'
tors had combined and conspred" to
violate the Sherman antitrust act by
monopolzing the sleeping car business
Two Pullman companies manufac-
ture sleeping cars. Another operates
them. but won't let a railroad use its
pool Of ears at all unless il uses Pull
man ears exclusively. The court gives
Pullman Inc. the privilege of deciding
which branch of the business 1t wants
to stay In. The decree forbids any of
the officers or directors of one com
pany to serve similarly In another of
the companies.
Among Pullman Inc officers and
directors are such well-known indus
trialists and tinanciers as Alfred l..
Sloan, Jr., of General Motors Corp,
Richard X. Mellon of the aluminium
monopoly MELONS and Harold s. Van
derbilt, whose family has minor
monopoly on the nations cash assets.
While the company is breaking Its
Illegal stranglehold on the sleeping car
business, the subsidiary that operates
the cars must take bids from other
manufacturers when II buys new ears,
the judges ordered. This portion of the
ruling will give look-in on the car
building business to such companies as

He added that an overwhelming
majority of labor leaders and ''the

heart and soul, as well as their backs
and arms, into the war job
In his Labor Day statement last
year, Forrestal declared
"On this Labor Day, the second
since our entry into the war, the might
of American war production is making
itself felt on every front in this global
war. That might eXemplifies the pa

states-less than one fifth of one pc
cent of the workers employed in New
York being involved in strikes in thos'
years. The practical Importance of thi;
record is proved by statistics on th'
2S leading industries, arranged to show
the productive value of well-pai(
workers. In eight of these industries
New York ranks first among the state:
in value of production as measured by
dollars of wages paid. In seven Other
industries il ranks second. Ninty-twt
per cent of the firms reporting in the
Department of Commerce survey
placed their stamp of approval on Ia
Dor relations in the State, stressing the
cooperative spirit of New York State
labor
Typical statements quoted from in
dustrial employers on the advantages
of the labor situation to the New York
State employer include the following
"Since New York has been an indus
thial State for century, its labor has
acquired an ability, stability and ma
turity which make for high efficiency
and excellent Industrial relations with
less strikes than in other areas" =.
"The excellent labor conditions in New
York State are perhaps the most ad-
vantageous features Of doing business
i'm the State" I'VE have found
here reservoir Of skilled labor that
has no match in any other area"
Good living conditions make for salts
fled labor. Our local workers are good
workers, largely home owners who
stick to their jobs. More than half of
our employees have been with us for
more than ten consecutive years"
The State Department of Commerce,
under Commissioner NJ T. Gather
wood, has been active since early this
year laying the foundation for this
campaign SO that when the expected
drop In war production comes, plans
may be ready for II quick pickup in
civilian production to keep the wheels
rolling and the returning veterans and
all other workers of the State EN-
ployed.

During the business session Sunday
afternoon Delegates were honored with
AN inspiring address by Major General
Thomas A. Terry, Commanding, Sec

Major General Terry made "A com
parison between the working men and
women of Germany and Japan with
those of the United States. In Ger
many the earnings of skilled workers
average 81 cents per hour, while those
OF the Japanese Is approximately 80

japanese workmen are poorly clothed

Major General Terry asked the help
OF all union men and women In a cam

minimum the number OF lost working
hours.
The army officer presented some
startling figures, showing that since
Pearl Harbor there has been upwards
OF 1900 more industrial casualties
than war dead. Major General Terry
closed his address by calling for more
and still more production
Many important problems affecting
members OF the Eastern Labor Con
ference were discussed during the
business session and AT the conclusion
of the two-day meeting IL was the con

most successful conference ever held

Pays High Tribute To Role
Labor Is PldYing In
Present War

Washington, ID. G. ULNS) S).-Eleva-
ti0n of James A. Forrestal to be Secre-
tary of Navy brings to this important
cabinet post statesman who views
labor as an active partner of the fight
ing men of the fleet the Navy Depart
ment points out
Secretary Forrestal, whose appoint
ment by President Roosevelt was just
confirmed by the Senate to succeed the
late Frank Knox, has been a familiar
sight in war plants throughout the
country since Americas entry into the
war. His keen interest in production
problems brought him to war plants
and shipyards on numerous occasions
to visit with labor and management
representatives and discuss production
problems first-hand.
Directed Vast Program
AS Under Secretary of the Navy,
Forrestal was in charge of the Nays
procurement Under his immediate
charge was the vast building and con-
struction program that has brought
the United States the greatest sea and
air armada the world has ever con-
templated.
In recent speech, Secretary For
restal paid high tribute to the role
labor is playing in this war. Referring
to the Navy's tremendous construction
program, he declared
8. let me say at the outset that
this truly titanic accomplishment was
not the work of any single man, GER
tainly not of my own effort. 1t was
possible because of the intelligence,
energy, and devotion to duty of thou
sands of officers and men throughout
