Committee DeIoys
KiIgore Bill Action

Washington, Aug. 1Congress
moved close to q showdown on re-
conversion a. 1t reopened this week
after the summer vacation. The
action came In two Senate commit
tees, Finance and Military Affairs,
on two widely different bills to deal
with the problem Of cut-backs and
the changeover from war to peace
production.
First action came In the Senate
Finance Committee when the
George bill Is 2051) was hurried
through as an offset to the Kilgore
bill Is 1899 and to a similar meas
urs offered by Sen. Murray d.,
Month.
The George bill is "a feeble and
synthetic" thing offered only Ito
confuse the issue and solve moth
ing" CLIO Prs. Philip Murray said
In again asking the Senator for
quick passage of the Kilgors meas
ure.
Sen. Georges (polltax, Ca bill
merely recommends that the
states pay unemployment COM
pensation to war workers, vet
Grams and government employees.
It says nothing about rates or
duration of the benefits. 1t fails
to set up the national agency
needed for orderly reconversiOn.
The new Murray bill, similar to
the Kilgore bill In everything ex-
cept the disposal Of surplus war
property. was in the Senate Mill
The CIO news. (Cumberland, Md.) 1942-????, 1944-08-07

tary Affairs Committee as The CLIO
NEWS went to press. with indi-
cations Of q quick favorable report.
This comes after long stalling on
the Kilgors bill, which was left as
Unfinished Business No. on the
Congressional agenda at the time
Of the recess.
The Kilgore and Murray bills
provide for a national. planned ap-
proach to the re-conversion prob
lem, as well as providing help to
demobilized war workers and re-
turning veterans.
1t Is this part Of the bill that
bothers George. Just as polltaxer
Rep Rankin fought the "GI Bill"
In the House because its unemploy-
ment benefits were too big for his
taste. so George is trying to choke
off the Kilgors bill for the same
reason.
The Kilgore and Murray bills
provide up to $S5 week benefits
for worker with dependents.
To George and his fellow poll
takers, this Is revolution. Its
even possible that workers I'm the
pOlltax South might get ideas
about their wage scales from IL.
Meantime, CLIO members are
urged by Pres. Murray to keep
plugging for the Kilgore bill as the
best approach to a rational plan
for the change-over from war to
peace production and as an aid to
war production now.
