This new column about First Air Force men and doings has but a single aim-to make friends and influence the spread of interesting intelligence within the command. Know Your Air Force" isn't go- ing to try to outsnoop Winchell or make Walter Lippman change his trend of political thought. It plans to keep it's feet on the ground and it's ears ditto even though a large slice of it's interests will be in the clouds. Items, official or otherwise, which will constitute news to FAF personnel stationed north, south, east or west, should be forwarded to the Public Relations Officer, First Air Force, Mitchell Field, New York, for dissemination in this column.
 The big parade of victorious generals returning to the US. fol- lowing VIE Day did not omit First Air Force Headquarters in the line of march. Among the general off, cers who visited Mitchell Field after their arrival were Lieut.. General Hoyt s. Vandenberg, commanding general of the 9th Air Force; Lieut.. General Lewis H. Brereton, commanding general of the 1st Airborne Army; Brig General Richard E. Nugent, com mander of the 29th Division of the 9th Army and a former Chief of Staff of the First Air Force; Brig. Gen. Bob E. Rowland, command ing general of the ATC Ferrying Division, and Brig. General Jack Doyle, commanding general of the 42nd Bomb Wing, 1st Tactical Air Force.
 This being the season for family reunions the First Air Force has come up with one which last week got considerable mention in a number of metropolitan news papers. When It. Elliott Reznik, Westover Field bombardier, got the news that his brother Joshua, recently liberated from a German prison camp, had arrived home in Brooklyn, New York, he arranged to be around for the welcome. Pvt. David Reznik, another brother, was also around to shake the hand of It. Joshua Reznik who had been imprisoned since the time he was shot down over Vien- ma. A fourth brother, It. Abraham Reznik, is reported missing in action.
 Representing the First Air Force at the recent quarterly con ference of the Air Forces Board at Orlando, Florida, were Major Gen eral Frank O'D Hunter, command ing general, and Brig. Gen. Caleb V. Haynes, commanding general of the I Bomber Command. Brig. Gen. Richard E. Nugent, who will re- turn to the ETC after a short visit in this country, also attended the conference.

Bradley Named Head Of OfVetsAdministration

Washington (CNS)-Gen. Omar N. Bradley, commander of the 18th Army Group in the ETC, is the new boss of the Veterans Administra- tion, succeeding M/Gen. Frank T Hines. In making the change Presi- dent Truman said that Hines had served faithfully, Loyalty and eff ciently" for 22 years, but that he desired a switch because "the vet erans of this war should have as the administrator of their affairs another veteran of this war" The activities of the VA have recently been the subject of inquiry by a Congressional Committee.
 >~~--- -->-----~---~-----~ hard time, huh? Then there is the sad story of a boy and his dog as told to me by Pvt. Willie T. Sharpe, our new mailman. Seems that when Willie was boy he and his dog would go to school every day and that the dog would sit on Willie's desk while he studied his lessons. For twelve long and hap py years this went on, Willie and his dog sitting side by side, read ing their textbooks in the old red school house. And then as life will go, so did Willie's dog and the pair were parted. Yep, that's right, the dog graduated. Don't be angry, Willie, Pm only kidding). See you next week. ..

Equal Wage For Women AskedB By .SchwelIenbach
Labor Secretary Opposes Salary Differentials For
 Equal Work

Elimination of wage differen- tials based on sex by any employer of more than eight persons en- gagged in interstate commerce is advocated by Secretary of Labor Schwellenbach, as ''not only a mat ter of fairness to women but also from the standpoint of preserving wage standards and consumer pur- chasing power."
 "The existence of a group of work CTS who are employed at uniformly lower wages than are paid to other groups doing the same or comparable work promotes destructive competi- tive practices and depresses the whole wage structure" he told a Sen ate Education and Labor Subcom- mltee which opened hearings on the Women's Equal Pay Bill.
 Senators Pepper, Democrat of Florida, and Morse, Republican of Oregon, introduced the measure in June.

Will MT. Babson Give UsA Tip On This Situation?
Workers In Mill Controlled By Financial Expert
 Vote To Strike

Albany, N. Y. (LPA)-Roger BabsOn, self-styled financial ex. pert, who tries to lecture organized labor in between giving out tips on stock exchange, found himself with a strike on his own doorstep this week.
 That issue is an attempt of the A.F.L. - Paper Makers Union to get an increase in "sweatshop' wages paid at the big A.P.W. Pro- ducts Company, Inc, a local paper mill in which Babson has controll- ing stock interest. The mill is com monly known as the "Babson mill"
 Since last October l, the union has been trying to negotiate a l5C an hour wage increase above pres. ent shockingly low base rates, which are only 55c an hour for women and 64c for men.
 Babson would offer no more thar Sc an hour, despite the fact that the mill is rolling in profits. Vice Pres,- dent Paul L. Phillips, of the union pointed out that in single recent week, stock of the firm advanced from $8.25 to $9.50, an aggregate gain or outstanding shares of $2OO0OO, or $33,OO0 more than the entire wage raises sought by the union would amount to for year.
 As resudt of the obdurate stand of the management, the workers voted to strike by the landslide majority of 29I to 3.

BEAUMONT, Tex. -(FP)- Pfc. Anson John Manuel of Vile Platte, La., after 5N years in the army, reenlisted here, announcing: ''I have to work too hard for too little money as a civilian"
 Manuel, who apparently has missed all those newspaper stories about the luxurious lives led by workers, said he could make more money as a private, with food and shelter furnish ed, than if he were earning Csc an hour and having to pay room and board out of it.
 The first Louisiana man to become a qualified army para trooper, Manuel asked for for eign service, preferably in Ger many.

Rabhor Workers In South Norwalk Win 5% Raise
Agreement Won By Gar ment Union After Firm
 Refused To Bargain


 After several months of negotia- tiOns that started with definite refusal by the firm to renew its agreement with the International Ladies' Garment Workers Union, the Rabhor Co.,, South Norwalk, has signed an agreement with the Eastern Out-of-Town Department of the Union by which its more than 200 employees receive a 5 per cent general wage increase.
 Included in the pact are terms de scribing the operation of the health fund that is set up for the Rabhor workers.
 Negotiations for the renewal began early in August, immediately after the EOT had received notice from the firm that it would not renew the pact that had expired on July 31. The union, which had not waited for the expiration date to call upon the firm to meet in conference, thereupon re- minded the management that the ILGWU had been chosen as their col lective bargaining agent by the Rab- hor workers.
 The continued refusal of the company to negotiate compelled the EOT to take the case before the U. s. Consolidation Service.
 All terms of the renewed pact are retroactive to Aug. 5 when the union first presented its demands. Elimina- ton of the uncertainties that came with the delay over reaching agree ment clears the way for cooperative efforts to raise the volume production at Rabhor to its previous high level, thus once more making possible the employment of as many as 500 work CTS at this plant.

Workers In South Recognize Fascism

President Truman received a unique suggestion this week from James F. Barrett, one of the ablest and best known labor lead CTS of the south.
 REFORM BEGINS AT HOME
 As executive secretary of the Southern Labor Press Association which serves A. K. of l.. papers. Jim" Barrett wrote Truman rec ommending that he shift General MacArthur to the Southland to put into effect there the kind of pro- gram for democracy and social re- form that he has ordered for Ja- pan.
 A major point in MacArthurs di- rective for Japan is that unionisnl should be encouraged" so as to safe guard the working man from exploi- tation."
 "We sotely need that right here in the South," Barrett wrote. "While many of our industries are organized, there are numerous industrial estab- ishments where homogeneous join hands with officers of the law and vigilante committees in opposing or ganization of workers. Also, armed thugs beat up our organizers at not too infrequent intervals" The South also direly needs the kind of guarantees of ''freedom from secret inquisition" which Macarthur has decreed for Japan, Barrett said. In Dixie that would mean elimination of "swashbuck- ling, company-paid policemen, armed to the hilt' who are used to terrorize workmen, Barrett added.
 BETTER SCHOOLS 'Likewise, the South, he said, could urgently use many of the other re- forms Macarthur has instituted in Nippon-such as better public schools, characterization of economic control, suppression of monopoly, and wide distribution of income and ownership. "So, MT. President, we urge you as our Commander-in-Chief to send General Macarthur into the South and instruct him to put into effect here in our own country that fine program which he has outlined for the Japanese people," Barrett con- cluded.
