PhiUy Union
Elects 5 Negroes

PHILADELPHIA, October "a
(LPA). In the elections of Off
GERS for the Transport Workers
Union here, which is the col
lective bargaining agent for
workers of the Philadelphia
Transit Co., five Negroes were
among the officers chosen by the
membership.
What makes this news is that,
last August, workers on the
city's street cars and other
public vehicles stayed away
from their jobs for five days, in
what was widely interpreted as
strike against the training of
Negro employees as platform
men" on the cars.
The unions charge that the
strike was company inspired,
and was intended as an anti
CIO move rather than being
race-hate outbreak, has been
substantiated by the results of
the elections. TWU leaders here
say.

Jeep Makers Helped
Sergeant Win Silver Sfcr

Members of United Auto
Workers, CIO, at the WHY'S
Overland plant in Toledo, Ohio,
who made the gun-defying jeep
driven in France by Sgt. Paul
Czercinski of West Allis, Wis
consin, can share in his pride
at winning the Silver Star, one
of the Army's highest awards for
valor.
Sgt. Czercinski, Signal Corps,
was travelling along a French
road when he noticed German
.88 being readied to fire at him.
In modern and motorized ver-
sion of David attacking Goliath,
he deliberately charged at the
threatening gun. The manuever
worked. The little jeep knocked
out the heavy .88, and Sgt. Ger
cinski was awarded the Silver
Star for his bravery.

weapon for which he was lavish
ly praised. Throughout his pub
lie career, even when America
cried for new markets, he fought
the recognition of Russia.
That Dewey is a mere echo
is attested by his statement be-
fore the Republican convention
in 1910 when he declared: "In-
sofar as the present administra-
ton had adhered to the policies
of its predecessors, it meets with
the general approval of the
American people. But it has oc-
casionally strayed from this
path. A conspicuous and unfor-
tunate departure was the recog-
milton of Russia" Even today,
as Dewey woos all men, a def
mite anti-RuSsian strain can he
spotted. A poor recommenda-
ton for international peace,
isn't it?
Use NaZi Lies
The use of Nazi propaganda
lies by Republican campaigners
is shocking but not unbelievable.
Remember, Hoover once said,
that he preferred fascism to the
Russian form of government.
Upon his return from Germany
to the U. S. in 1888, Hoover was
quoted as lauding the economic
security" which Hitler gave the
German people.
On the quiet and luxurious es-
tates of Republican Pawling, N.
Y, the Dewey-Hoover strategy
is hatched. Dewey's summer
farm is located there, close 20
the residence of Hugh Gibson,
former ambassador to Belgium
and co-author with Hoover Of
many books. 1t is no secret that
last winter, when lines were be-
ing formed for the Republican
nomination battle, Hoover left
the warmth and comfort of his
sunny California home to divide
his time between the Waldorf
Astoria in New York and Pawl-
ing. No doubt he conferred
there with Lowell Thomas, the
Pew family's radio voice, and
the Rev. Norman Vincent Peale.
head of Frank Gannett's Com
mittee for Constitutional Gov

Herbert Hoover made his
choice, Tom Dewey, and mott
fled the nation when he address

of Americans who suffered dur

Millions Of
Workers Eorn
Less Them SIb

ASHIN TON. Oct. "a
(LPA) = Announcement that
more than two billion dollars
was paid American workers last
year in overtime premium pay
under the Fair Labor Standards
Act was made on Oct. % by
Administrator L. Metcalfe Wall
ing.
The administrator, speaking
on the 9Th anniversary of the
acts passage by Congress, indi-
Gated that the premium pay
was, Sin addition to the increase
of billions in basic wages over
the years, direct and indirect, as
the universal 40c an hour min
lmum u n d er the Act was
reached"
Though admitting that part of
the premium would have been
paid under union contracts in
the absence of the Act, the ad-
mlnistrator contended that ''by
making time and one-half nearly
universal after 40 hours in inter-
state industry, the Act made it
mandatory for both organized
and unorganized plants and re-
moved the pressure of cut throat
competition"
However, Walling pointed out
the dark side of the nations
w ge picture. Considerably
over 100000 workers." he
stated, still are paid less than
40 cents an hour, less than SIG
for a 40 hour week." He pre-
sented the following additional
figures demonstrating what has
yet to be done: Cd Last year
8,620,369 in restitution of ille-
gally withheld wages was agreed
to or ordered. This covered 534.-
422 workers in 20,622 establish
ments. (2) Failure to pay the
minimum wage of 80 to 40 cents
an hour was involved in 28I
per cent of these cases and resti-
tuition of such minimum wages
was found due more than 1OO.-
600 workers. 90 Another
3, 100000 workers not in agri-
culture or domestic service made
between 40 and so cents an
hour, $16-$20 a week, and a
further 3,50O,OO get from so 10
60 cents an hour, from $40 to
S24 for forty hour week."

loan out. It will be able too, TO
borrow more money TO loan out
to member nations and to guar
antee loans made to these ma
tions by private investors. It
should be able, therefore, to con
troll the interest rates which the
smaller member countries have
to pay in order to get capital
when they need it. It should be
able to control and eliminate
some Of the other conditions
which the investment pirates
have additionally set when
loaning money to a small nation
in need of funds for developing
its resources.
In both cases, it will take
money, and this country will
have to put up its share. As
the wealthiest of them all, we
will have to put up more than
any other single member-28@ e
of the money for the Fund, and
$50 Of the money for the Bank.
Together, the two sums will
equal less than $6,000,000,OO
less than the cost Of the present
war for one month. The money
will, of course, be used over and
over again and be controlled By
boards in which we vote, IN
about the same proportion as
our contribution.

will be infinitely cheaper than

American
9 n1bIers
BY Claude Hess

All Americans like to gamble
whether it is the one armed
bandits, pin ball machines, the
great American game of poker
bridge, fiddle winks or any
game you can think of. But the
one great gamble that they are
afraid to take and that has the
largest kitty in winning stakes
such as unemployment compen-
sation, social security, old age
pension, steady employment, the
Wagner Lobor Act and jobs for
every man and woman who
wants to work.
How do we accomplish all
this? Why! By joining the Po-
litical Action Committee for So
cial Legislation. The cost will
never break you as it only cost
one dollar a year. Did you ever
stop to realize that you are 60
ing to reach that age some day
when you will have to retire
and make a place for some one
younger and wouldn't it give
you a secure feeling that you
were going to receive anywhere
from SIS to $100 per month?
Wouldn't you like to receive a
$50 check for 26 weeks for I'M
employment insurance and how
about a job for everyone who
wants to work?
PEOPLE COMPLAIN
You hear people complaining
about high prices of food. We
know those people do not want
to remember the prices they
paid for food in the last war
with wages only about one half
as much as they are getting now.
AS an example eggs were 80c
to $1.00 a dozen, steaks $1.25
per lb. If you do not believe
this you should have seen the
add of a store in Boston, yes
they are Republicans telling how
much $43 would buy in 1918.
One barrel of flour and 100 lbs.
of sugar and in May, 1914 un-
der the much discussed OPA
price control, a barrell of flour,
100 lbs. of sugar and 88 other
staples you use in your homes
day by day.
Yes, organized labor has done
a swell job for you and will do
more if you are not afraid to
gamble one dollar and join the
PAC. United we can win and
divided fail. Come on brothers
and sisters lets all gamble a
buck.
