ference, and the extending of the
present working agreement, pending a
decision ON the Little Steel wage
ceiling.
The vacation with pay, based on a
percentage basis will enable all our
members to share in the adopted plan,
as compared TO a small majority who
would have qualified under the 1900
hour limitation.
1t seems some of our members whose
earnings have increased through the
efforts put forth by the union have
become delinquent in their obligations.
If this is their means of expressing
their gratitude, there is nothing left
for the local to do but suspend them.

Working Force Bureau
Survey Discloses

Washington, d. c. (ILNS)
Pearl HarbOr more than 6,50O,0OO
women have joined the country's work
ing force, with more than half coming
from home homework, a U. S. Women s
Bureau survey discloses.
AS of March, there were some 49,
100000 working women i'm this coun-
try, compared with 12,000,000 the week
before Pearl Harbor. While the net
increase during that period is 1900 ,000
the total of 6,500,000 new women
workers is based on job turnover rates.
Most of the new workers have entered
manufacturing and clerical work.
The bureau said the survey showed
that women were relatively stable
workers, as S,370000 of the 9,S30,00
who were employed not only before
Pearl Harbor but also last March had
remained in the same occupation
groups.
1t predicted that there probably
would be more married women in the
working force after the war than be-
fore, saying that there were now about
2,500,00 more married women than in
1910 and about a 100000 fewer

West Coast Talks Seen As
Republican Bid For
Lubor Vote

Los Angeles. - In a series of cam
paign speeches on the West Coast,
Governor Thomas +. Dewey of New
York, Republican Presidential candi-
date, made a determined bid for the
labor vote by pledging himself to sup
port collective bargaining, to work for
full employment at high wages and to
expand the nations social security
program.
At the same time, Mr.. Dewey bitter
ly attacked the New Deals labor
record blaming most of the wartime
sailing the repeated crisis which have
developed in the handling of labor dis
putes
He charged that Secretary of Labor
Perkins, IAN estimable lady, has been
Secretary of Labor lin name only
and promised if elected, to replace her
with Il labor leader.
Opening his assaults on the Ad-
lninistration's labor policy in an ad-
dress at Seattle, Mr.. Dewey declared
fatty that the ConnallySmith Act has
not worked and that its provisions
which expire at the close of the war
should never be renewed.
Much of his criticism was directed
at the War Labor Board, which he ac-
cused of delays and bungling that have
caused suffering for many workingmen
and women.
On the positive side, Mr.. Dewey said
he would abolish many of the waste
ful, competing bureaus noW handling
labor questions and would put their
powers and duties into the one place
where they belong, in the Department
of Labor" He added:
I'VE must have full employment. 1t
must be at IL high wage level. We must
have protection of the individual from
loss of his earning power through no
fault of his own. We must have pro-
tectio OF the Individual against the
hazards Of old age. We must have
these things within the framework of
free-and | mean free-collectiye bar
gaining"
Mr.. Dewey developed his ideas on
social security in his address here in
Los Angeles, He advocated widening
the coverage of the social security
laws 10 include 20 million persons not
now protected. including agricultural
and domestic workers and self-em-
pLoyed persons. He also urged return
of the United States Employment
Service TO State control and also the
continuation of unemployment com
pensation under State administration.
Observers felt that MIR. Dewey had
gone far beyond the labor plank of the
Republican Party and had assumed
leadership of the more liberal element
of his party in these addresses.
In all his speeches Mr. Dewey
stressed that maximum production and
full employment can only come under
an administration which encourages
the expansion of business and inspires
confidence among The nations indus
trial leaders

Nevada's laws go so far as to pro

In Texas the law simply provides a
fine of up to $500 for any employer

tive secretary of the Railway Labor

be-"
