HOW GOMEZ

A year or so oeo the National War Labor Board
saw fit to grant wage increases Of SIS q week TO
members Of the small union Of theatrical press ogents
and managers, whose minimum wages at that time
ranged from SIS to $50 week. Not SO long oeo
the same National War Labor Relations Board re-
fused to approve Sl5-o-nonth increase for 1884,
600 white collar office and clerical workers on the
west eoost, though regional WLB had previously on
nouneed the rise.
Does the Sl5O-o-month stenoeropher have it any
eosier than the S65-oweek press oeent2 Not if
the recent congressional hearings on the whte-col-
lar workers plight mean anything. Millions Of these
fixed salary workers, hit by the income tox for the
first time this year, being patriotic and putting
their non-inflotionory money into War Bonds, often
through stimulus Of quote arrangements which, in
some government offices at Ieost, have been high
presumed. Yet their pay remains the same.
We have done on excellent job Of holding the
line. but food prices undenoby have increased The
theatrical union requested pay rise on the grounds
ttot their lo39-Ieve solories weren't buying 1899
omount Of goods. Obviously the notiono WLB
oorsed. But why doesn't thot olso go, doubled in
spudes, for the west coast white-collor workers?

The hottest political and econ
omic potato the President has
yet had TO field on his luncheon
tray will be served to him about
Oct. IA. when the National War
Labor Board is scheduled to
complete its week Of delibera-
tons on A. F. of l.. and c. |. O,
petitions to break the Little
Steel formula and make its re-
commentator to the White
House. That will be about three
weeks before election. II he
stalls off decision until after
election it will be a miracle. But
regardless of the date on which
decision will be made, the Presi-
dent will be damned by his enc
mics, the Republican employers,
if he does break it, and he will
be damned by his friends in or
gained labor if he doesn't.
Although the administration
Is committed TO upholdlng the
principle of wartime wage stab
ilization as a means of curling
initiation, there are a number OF
outs and alibis which might be
presented in justification OF
authorizing wage increases.
GREATER "TAKE-HOME"
PAY GRANTED
The most peculiar argument is
that the Republican platform is
against arbitrary wage freezes.
Aside from that, it can be ar
gued that the Little Steel form
ula has already been broken by
the mine workers and railroad
brotherhoodS' wage cases, in
which the government gave
those groups concessions in the
form of portal-to-portal pay, ov-
ertime and other extras which,
while not technically increasing
base rates of pay over Little
Steel formula limitations, did

home pay-including the over
time-as the postwar base rate
OF pay. In other words, what la
Dor would like to have is tho
present, wartime, 48-hours' pay
for 40 hours of postwar work.
The attempted justification for
this is that even with overtime,
the present average industrial la
Dor take-home pay of $40 a week
is just about what il takes to get
by on in these days of higher
prices, and that any reduction
of this take-home pay will mean
that industrial workers will be
forced TO sell their war bonds,
reduce their standard of living.
or go into debt. AS a means of
keeping up the national income,
maintaining the present consum-
er buying and spending power,
developing postwar industries
and stimulating business, ii is
seriously argued that those high
er wage rates are an economic
necessity to prevent postwar de-
preston.
II will take more political
courage than there probably is
in the whole world to stick by
the Little Steel formula and try
to live up to the principles of the
wage sterilization program. But
how any yielding of the line on
wages can mean anything else
than higher prices and a gcner-
Gus measure of postwar initiation
is something you'll have to get
from the great rationalizer him
self.
