VINO Classes Sand
And Gravel Industry
AS Locally Needed

The production of sand and gravel
today became the 14th local indus
try entitled to special protection
from the area War Manpower Com
mission in hiring and holding onto
workers.
The VINO announced the sand
and gravel industry, with eight
establishments and 400 workers
here, had been classed as locally
needed" because 1t was unable to
maintain employment in the face
of continuing heavy demands for
sand and gravel.
Acting Area Director Arthur
.Schoenthal explained that a large
part of the local sand and gravel
production was being used for vital
military and naval construction
work here.
He reported the employment had
dropped by Is per cent in the in
dustry in the past year and that it
had been necessary to sship sand
and gravel from New York because
local producers couldn't meet the
orders because of lack of manpower.
For each establishment in the in
dustry to be individually considered
locally needed employers must
comply with VINO standards, he
explained, including base pay of
IS cents or more an hour for all
employees except deck-hands. In
exchange, the employers will be
given preferential treatment in re-
cruiting workers and controls will
be put on the movement of workers
out of the industry.
At the same time, VINO an
nounced that another of its locally-
needed activities-retail food dis
tribution-had shown increasing
signs Of compliance with VINO
standards in the past two weeks.
VINO had threatened to remove
its protection from retail food stores
because of numerous complaints of
"pirating" workers, Mr.. Schoenthal
explained, adding that Washington

lSAAoAA Va lldu HOW cA-
tended their full cooperation in
making retail food stores aware of

gram.
Many food stores, Mr.. Schoenthal
said, have now signed locally need
ed" application forms indicating
their willingness to go along with
the VINO program.
The industry, he announced, will
meet at $3.50 pm. Thursday in the
Jewish Community Center to hear
an explanation of the purpose of
the employment sterilization pro-
gram. Speakers will include Mr..

Msgr. Ready AssaiIs
Priest S Soviet Visit as
Political BurIesque'

The visit to Moscow of the Rev.
Stanislaus Orlemanski of the
Springfield (Mass) Roman Catholic
diocese was assailed as "a political
burlesque. staged and directed by
capable Soviet agents." by Msgr.
Michael j. Ready, general secretary
of the National Catholic Welfare
Conference, in an address yesterday
before supervisors of the National
Catholic Community Service at their
communion breakfast.
The State Department explained
last week that passport arrange
ments for Father Orlemanski were
made at the request of the Russian
government. II. has been made clear
that the priest is travelling as a pri-
vate citizen. He was received Fri
day by high officials of the RUS
sian government, including Premier
Stain.
Highly Publicized in Russia.
Since Russia now considers the
Polish exiles in her territory citi-
zens of the U. S, S. r., will our Gov
ernment, at the respectful request
OF millions of citizens, now issue a
friendly Endorsement for Russian
passports for the priests and bishops
imprisoned in Russia to come to the
United States to enjoy the four free
doms?" Msgr. Ready asked.
Father Orlemanski was reported
to have left his parish without the
required permission of his diocesan
authorities, Although of Polish ex-
traction, he has been known as a
partisan to the Russian course of
action in Polish-Russian relations.
Dispatches from Moscow described
the large amount of publicity ac-
corded the American priests visit.
This Is the phoniest propaganda
that the usually clever men of Rus
sia have palmed off on the United
States" Msgr. Ready told his au.
dience.
Suggests He Interview Priests.
In the Russian news dispatches it
was said the Springfield priest was
making a study of the Polish army
IN Russia and the Polish situation
generally. OF these announcements,
Msgr. Ready suggested that it would
be much more interesting If the
visiting cleric were permitted to in
terview Polish priests who have been
suppressed in the Soviet Union.
He pointed out that previous re-
quests for permission for American
priests to visit Russia had been re-
Jected and said that Father Orle-
mansh 'fs the only priest in this
country and probably in the world"
to favor Russian political policy in
the past. He added that the visit
has absolutely no religious signifi-
canoe.
Senator Danaher, Republican, of
Connecticut was also a speaker at
the breakfast.

AFL Drafts Proposed
Political PIanks and
Studies Lewis Plea
BY the Associated Press,

BY tpe Associated Press.
PHILADELPHIA, May 1.-The
American Federation of Labor's pro-
posals for labor planks in the plat
forms of the major political parties
will be drafted at Executive Council
sessions opening today.
The councils spring meeting,
usually operated on a Today sched-
ule, also will consider the year-old
application of John L.sLewis' United
Mines Workers for readmission.
1t is doubtful whether the pro-
posed labor planks will be an
nounced in advance of their
presentation to the Republican and
Democratic convention Resolutions
Committees by a committee of the
AFT.
The proposals will cover in detail
the social and economic problems
following the war.
Probably foremost among the pro-
posals is broadening of the social
security program to Federalize un-
employment compensation, provide
for discharged war workers and re-
turning servicemen, and health in
surance provision.
The status of the Lewis applica-
ton is virtually the same as ii
was more than three months age
when the council last considered it
The issue Is not a simple matter
of readmission, but the terms of re-
admission. It Is possible, however
that Mr.. Lewis or his friends will
demand fat "yes" or mo" de-
cision.
The council told Mr.. Lewis in jan
uary he could come back as he left
seven years ago, that is, with mine
workers. That would mean dis
banding the UMW's District so, in
which Mr.. Lewis has organized a
dozen crafts outside coal mining
He is even willing to do that, except
for the chemical workers he has
enrolled.
What he is angling for is an AFI
charter giving him jurisdiction over
chemicals, which in the future may
outrank coal mining in the number
of employables. The AFL has
10000 or more chemical workers al
ready organized in scattered local
unions. These would automatically
become units of the United Mine
Workers if the AFL gave Mr.. Lewis
chemical charter, unless, of course
the local unions should refuse anc
withdraw entirely from the AFL.
