w. H. Davis Says End
OF WLB Hinges on
Industrial Peace

The War Labor Board should re-
tire after the war and settlements
of industrial problems should be left
to the parties interested, but 1t
will not be able to do so unless
labor and management improve
their relationship between now and
then, WLB Chairman William H.
Davis said today.
One of three speakers at today's
session of the Conference on Better
Management Now and in the Post
war Period. Mr.. Davis said war
emergencies required the use of
force in settling labor disputes in
contrast to the orderly process of
persuasion, but that the sooner we
get back to processes of persuasion
the better" He added management
must not wait until then to improve
its leadership and relationship with
labor.
TITS easy to say it's the other fell
lows fault" he said. IT'S every
body's fault. You've got to get down
to the plant where the contract
exists and see if it is working prop
erly."
DiSclaims Personal Credit.
Disclaiming any personal credit
for the War Labor Boards work, he
said the fact we have 10000, 900 men
under arms and fully equipped was
a tribute to the boards role In set
ting strikes-backed up by de
termined President"-while the men
were on the work front rather than
in the picket line.
George K. Bait and Robert j.
Watt, also WLB members, who pre-
ceded Mr. Davis on the program,

savings and investments In helping
to maintain consumer demand and
purchasing power. Taxes must be
completely overhauled and cor
porate taxes should be reduced on
the theory that it is wrong to punish
people because they make money.
Government also has a serious
obligation in providing social Sc
curity for vast numbers Of persons
not now covered by the law and
must insure high standard of pub
lie health, Mr.. Bait said. He termed
the state of public health "deplor-
ably bad

annual income of $150,000, 900 600

by discussion on the problems con-
fronting small business.
william L. Bait, vice chairman OF
the War Production Board, speaking
at the dinner session last night,
said business must prepare plans
for reconversion to peacetime opera
tions and must improve its in
dustrial relations. 1t should pro-
vide adequate finance for the growth
of business, establishing a sound
price policy, which should be to sell
more goods to more people at lower
prices.
Labor, on the other hand, has got
to learn reasonableness in the use
of new forces gained in the last lO
years, Mr.. Bait declared. He added
that collective bargaining will re-
main as long as it is not abused
Referring to labor's role in plan
ming, he said 1t must recognize the
very great dislocation of wages and
not insist on tagging postwar wages
to the peak attained in various COM
munities.
The speaker said Government
must provide good financial at
mosphere for business, balancing

should be that Of an umpire rathe,
than that of czar.
Mr.. Bait warned that labor must
guard against monopoly just as
carefully as management, and that
it must guard against usurpation OF
unwarranted powers by any individ-
uals or groups.
Would Open Union Fiscal Affairs.
He said labor unions should make
public financial statements, guaran-
tee elections by secret ballots fol
their entire memberships and not
make any demands on management
without an intelligent understand
ing of the problems involved. He
said the old strategy of reaching for
the moon in the hope of getting a
star would be outmoded in the post
war era. Labor, he declared, is only
as strong as those for whom it
works.
Mr.. Bait said the lowering OF in
ternational barriers against trade
and commerce will mean that labor,
management and Government must
be united to plan an intelligent and
realistic approach to the problem
of meeting competition with the So
called low-cost countries.
Mr.. Bait told his audience that
intelligent management could keep
a large percentage of disputes from
reaching the War Labor Board. He
said labor wants to be partner
of management in the production
and distribution of goods in the
postwar world" and that the Nation
must unite to build a new industrial
democracy.
Would End Fight on Unions.
The first step in that direction,
he said, would be for management
to recognize that trade unions are
here to stay and that employers
must encourage and help strengthen
unions.
The two-day conference at the
Statler Hotel, sponsored by the
Washington Chapter of the Society
for Advancement Of Management,

Arnold Line 10 End
Contract With Drivers
On Expiration, May 1S

The $50 employees of the Arnold
Operated Bus Lines, members of the
AFL Amalgamated Association of
Street, Electric Railway and Motor
Coach Employees, were served notice
today by company officials that the
present contract with the union will
be terminated on May Is, its ex-
Ipiration date.
Union officials said the notice
terminating the present contract
also stated the company would not
consider an arbitration clause in
negotiating a new agreement with
the union. The notice added, how
ever, that the present contract, less
the arbitration provision, would
stand during negotiations.
Cite WLB Support.
Recalling that one-day walkout
by Arnold drivers last November
followed inability to agree on an
arbitration clause in the contract,
union officials said the arbitration
provision was upheld b ythe War
Labor Board at subsequent hearings.
A request by the union that an
arbitrator be appointed in dispute
with the company over bonus pay
ments to drivers has been pending
before the WLB for the last month,
union officials said.
A bonus payment agreement bet
ween employees and officials of the
Capital Transit Co. and the Alex
andria, Bancroft g. Washington
Transit Co. was reached three
months ago after a recommendation
by the WLB that war-necessary
wage boosts. be provided through
such system.
The bonus recommendation was
made by WLB after a ruling against
a 5-cent-an-hour wage increase
agreed to by employees and officials
of the Washington and Alexandria
lines. Employees of the Arnold Line,
who had requested a straight 9-cent-
an-hour raise, were granted a z
cent increase by the WLB.
A union spokesman said a meet
ing of the union will be held to-
to decide what action will
be taken on the company notice.

RICHMOND, Va, April l9.-The

terday went on record as opposing
any official action by that church
for any legislative policy or social
program, including prohibition. The
presbytery is one of several units
of the Virginia Synod of the South

The presbytery adopted a report
of its Committee on Moral and So

The action bore more than usual

It includes the cities of Richmond
Fredericksburg and Petersburg as
well as the Union Theological Semi

The committee said 1t recognized
