Labor FavOrs Int'l Bill
Of Rights For Racial and
Religious MinOrities

New York Thirty-four high
ranking labor leaders headed by Will
liam Green, President of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor were among
the 1926 signers of a statement issued
by the American Jewish Committee
urging an International Bill Of Rights
to serve as a postwar guarantee of
religious and individual rights for all
persons throughout the world just as
the American Bill of Rights is guar
antee Of individual liberties for Amer
leans.
Approved by President Roosevelt,
Governor Thomas E. Dewey and Su-
preme Court Justices Owen j. Roberts
and Frank Murphy, the Declaration,
issued by Judge Joseph M. Proskauer,
President of the American Jewish
Committee, calls for the recognition
of the individual human being "as the
cornerstone of our culture and civili-
zation" and the establishment Of the
"new world" on the basis Of the "dig-
nifty and inviolability of the person."
The approval of President Roose-
| welt was expressed in letter to Judge
Proskauer from William D. Hassett,
Secretary to the President. "While it
is not the practice of the President to
sign documents of this nature" Mr..
Hassett said, II can assure you that
he fully sympathizes with all popular
movements in support of this policy
which he himself has affirmed ON SC
many occasions"
The six points of the Declaration of
Human Rights call for:
1. An International Bill Of Rights
Ito guarantee for every man, woman
and child, Of every race and creed and
in every country, the fundamental
rights Of life, liberty and the pursuit
of happiness"
2. A world in which the rights of
national sovereignty do not permit any
nation to deprive those within its bor-
ders of fundamental human rights ''on
the claim that these are matters of
internal concern"
3. Recognition of the fact that big
otry and persecution by barbarous
nation "is matter of international
concern" because it eventually throws
upon the peace-loving nations the bur-
den Of relief and redress"
/ 4. A policy Of "fair redress" for
/ those "who have suffered under the
Hitler regime because of race, creed
or national origin
/ 5. A plan for reparation, with
their rights unaffected, for "those who
have been driven" from their homes.
6. international machinery where
by new homes will be found Sin other
parts Of the world" for ssthose who
wander the earth unable or unwilling
to return to the scenes Of urforget-
able horror" from which they fled.

Employment Service. The letter con-
cluded
1.-THE question before us is not
whether we will win the war, but it
has great deal to do with the length
of the war, as it is known that fail
ure to meet the schedule called for by
General Eisenhower will mean need
less loss of lives and human suffer
ing.
"OUR DUTY is CLEAR IN THIS
CRISIS AND WE MUST NOT
FAIL. EACH OF US MUST DO
EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO AS
SIST IN FINDING ADDITIONAL
WORKERS WITHOUT DELAYw
All in all, AFL officials were some
what surprised by the modest nature
of the War Departments require
ments, considering the tempestuous
nature of the complaints about pro-
duction shortages.
They felt more than confident of
being able to solve the manpower
problems presented by the War De-
partment by voluntary methods and
saw no basis for renewal demands
for enactment of national service leg
islation to meet the situation.
President Ray Kelsey, President of
the Metal Polishers Union, for exam
pie, told Mr.. Hines he would be able
to produce the men required in his
trade within forty -eight hours.
| More difficulty was anticipated In
/ finding additional molders and foun-
dry workers because wage scales in
some of these plants where additional
workers are needed are far below
those prevailing for similar work in
other war industries.
When questioned about this stu
alton, War Department officials SAID
they were helpless to correct wage
inequities in foundry shops because
of rulings of the National War Labor
/ Board,
Mr.. Hines said he is keeping ir
constant touch with union officials
and expected to be able to issue 9

ment and to the public within week
