Night Shift Rdte
Boosted By Ruling
Employees In Government
Nuvul Establishments
Benefit From Ruling

Several hundred thousand workers
on night shifts in the government
navy yards and other naval establish
ments will get moderate increases in
pay beginning October 16 President
n. Z. Alifas of District No. A of the
International Association of Machin-
lists revealed this week.
The wage boosts are largely the re-
suit of ruling by Comptroller Gen
eral Lindsay Warren that time and
one-half rates for work after 40 hours
week must be calculated upon actual
earnings, including night shift diff
ferentials, which amount to 6 cents an
hour on the East Coast and 10 to Il
per cent on the West Coast.
Atlantic Coast navy yard workers
will get an additional benefit because
of a decision of the navy to pay the
differentials for the entire late shifts,
which run from +. NJ to midnight,
and from midnight to A. Nj.
Up to now the 6-cent-an-hour bonus
was paid only for hours from 6 p. Nj.
to Z A. Nj. The change will mean pay
ment of the differential for an addi-
tional two hours ON the =. Nj. shift
and one hour on the midnight trick
Also, under the comptroller generals s

reduced the basic week in the navy
yards from 4S to 40, with no cut in
pay. District No. A of the |. A. NJ,
which embraces Machinists in the gov
ernment service, led the successful
battle for that amendment.
However, we urge workers in naval
shore establishments not to spend that
retroactive pay before they get it,"
Alifas warned. 1T won't amount to
much, and the government doesn't have
the manpOwer now to go back through
q myriad of records to determine
what's due each employee. 1t may take

New Jersey Labor
Backs Roosevelt
Stute Federation Convention
Acts Unanimously Follow
ing Talk BY Tobin

Atlantic City, y. J. 0LNS). - The
New Jersey Federation of Labor, in
Goth annual convention, adopted a
resolution pledging its membership tC
work for the reelection of President
Roosevelt.
The resolution waS-intrOduced after
an address by Daniel j. Tobn, presi
dent of the International brotherhood
of Teamsters and Chauffeurs, in which
Tobin urged the members to support
the present Administration. A voice
vote showed no opposition among the
nearly 800 delegates.
Tobin expressed confidence of a
Roosevelt-Truman victory but said sit
won't be walkoyer."
During the next weeks the toilers
of the nation must be on the job If
they expect to hold the liberty they
now enjoy" he said.
He said his own interest in the cam
paign was mot political" and added /:
after the last war many unions
took wage cuts Of from 10 to 20 per
cent and more My union has 100000
members. If they take ii 10 per cent
cut, that's $144 100000 taken out Of
their wages And, unless we have the
right kind of people in office, that's
what's going to happen"
Mayor Vincent j. Murphy of New
ark, secretary treasurer of the state
federation, i'm his report advocated
that the convention go on record on >
current issues. He listed these as an
peace organization, ade-
quate social security, a program OF
federal public works, prompt recon
version Of war industries and the safe
guarding of the rights of members now
in the armed forces.
Esme Fisher, British trade union
leader, told the delegates that the
problem of consolidation" of its gains
would be the greatest task facing labor
after the war.

gagged in war production give workers

Many state laws now require time

sisted that's not sufficient. 1.-THE work
ers must have time for both registra-

Government cannot demand that only
whOle-grain bread be produced and
eaten as is done i'm Russia and Ger
many Therefore, War Food Orders
have been passed whereby all bakers
white bread has been enriched for the
last year and half, and all white
rolls have been enriched since May
1914. Three b vitamins and iron are
now being added to the dough from
nutrients were originally natural
part of the grain. In making enriched
bread the bakers may add them, in
synthetic or concentrated form, direct
ly to the dough; they may use en-
riched flour; or they may use high
vitamin Il yeast.
Much concern has been given the
possibility of enriching flour, especial
ly that which is used as such in the
home Although millers have received
the idea with enthusiasm and are en-
riching some of it according to Gov
ernment specifications, no compulsion
has been put upon them by the Gov
ernment.
Americans have shown decided
preference for white bread rather than
whole-wheat bread, and its fortifica-
ton is a mark of real progress. The
bakers have been pioneers in the en-
richment program, and, since the EN-
fOrcement of it is effective only for
the duration, they are cooperating
with the Government in seeking ways
and means of continuing it in post war
years. The enrichment program should,
therefore, be considered worthy of our
support. 1t is decidedly in the interest
of improved health.

of his color
The case was brought to the
Supreme Court by Lonnie Smith
Of Houston, Texas. who was de,
MED the rights to vote IN the
primary in 1910 by the election
Judges of Harris County, Texas,
His attorneys eontended that
the exclusion OF Negroes from the
primary was based on the theory
that the right to participate in
the Democratic party of Texas
and should not be confused with
the right to vote.
The attorneys referred to a Su.
preme Court opinion of 1941 in a
case from Louisiana, which they
say held that a state where choice
at the primary was tantamount
to election, the right to vote in
the primary was derived from
the United States Constitution
and not from the party.
In UNFOLDING the Negroes right
to vote fer Congressional contest
ants, the majority opinion stated:
THE United States is a Con-
stitutionaI democracy. Its organic
law grants to all citizens right
to participate in the choice of
elected officials without restrle-
ton by any state because of race.
This grant to the people of the
opportunity for choice is not to be
nullified by state through cast
ing it's electoral process in form
which permits private organi-
cation to practice racial dis
elimination in the election. Con-
stitutional Rights would be Of lit
