Control Of Wages
Now Up 10 Labor
And Management
Complete Cooperation
VituI to Prevention
Of Peoeetime Disputes
fTert OF Presidents Statement
on Page A-1l.)
By JAMES Y. NEWTON.

The Little Steel wage formula
was in the discard today for
large segment of American work.
ers and so many exceptions to
the wartime pay yardstick have
been made by President Truman
that labor officials doubted the
wage stabilization line could be
held for any workers backed by
a strong union. 80.
Surrender Of the Japs has so
weakened the already not-very-
strong wartime machinery for en-
forcing wage and other Industrial
relations edicts that the sole re-
lance Of Government in prevention
of industrial warfare in the imme-
diate reconversion period seemed to
lie in complete cooperation Of
management and labor.
There was today no Federal ma
chinery for handling labor disputes
and wage cases except by suf1erance
of labor and employers. The War
Labor Board, at least temporarily,
was reduced to the status of a me-
diation agency.
WLB Rendered Impotent.
Labor Department officials said
they could not certify disputes to
WLB for settlement, since it could
not be held that a dispute was a
valid threat to the war effort or to
war production. Both the War La
Dor Disputes Act and the White
House order setting up WLB contain
such test of labor dispute to be
certified to WLB.
A new executive order, however,
was expected to be issued by the
White House soon. The order, pre-
sumably, would contain new work
ing powers for the board through
declaration by the President of a
new state of emergency.
President Truman's amendment of
wartime policy last night set the
stage for possible struggle between
employers and unions whose con-
tracts call for reopening of negotia-
tions upon the changing of national
wage policy.
Reopening Clause Noted.
Nearly all of the big union con-
tracts have such a reopening clause
CIO President Philip Murray told
reporters yesterday that his unions
would take advantage of reopeners,
but pointed out that many CIO
contracts had no-strike language
written into them.
Both Mr.. Murray and AFL Presi-
dent William Green said they did
not expect any widespread outbreak
OF strikes while the Government
was getting its reconversion labor
policy set. But, it was recalled that
the United Automobile Workers, the
largest CIO union, has held it was
no longer bound by the wartime
no-strike pledge.
Many employers and unions ad-
mittedly have strung along with
the WLB only because of the war,
and labor officials believed that
these groups would seek the first
opportunity to ignore the board even
after the President bestows new
powers on the agency.
Mr.. Truman, in announcing the
new wage policy, called on labor and

in Assam province.
Letter From India
His story of killing a tiger in
India is contained in a 25OO word
letter to his wife Esther, accom-
panied by a number of photos ta-
ken on the spot.
Some of the high spots of the
letter:

men from his outfit and started
for the jungles where the tiger was
supposed to hold out.
I'VE hadn't any more than en-
tered the fringes than a small pool
of water and bent grass told the
story of a tigers hasty retreat.
Five of us were posted in small
sapplings along the trail. We were
! just far enough apart so that we
could watch the men on each side
of US along the winding path. Ele-
plants and drivers circled the
wooded area and began driving
through the length of the wooded
strip.
Half an hour of tense watching
passed before we could hear the
sounds of the elephants breaking
through and the loud talk of their
| drivers.
Soon my ears caught the sound
of dried rotten babboO cracking
some distance ahead. My heart be-
gan to thump something awful.

TAlMAD6E WOULD SUSPEND
POLL TAX FOR WHITES ONLY

ATLANTA, Jan. 9 (ANP)-
Liberal advocates of poll tax repeal
gained an unexpected recruit when
former governor Eugene Tai
madge, arch race-baiter, came out
for it's abolition, asserting that
'the Negro question is not in
volved."
Talmadge, whose strongest ap-
peal for votes is based on his plea
for the maintenance of white su-
premacy, issued a statement say
ing the general assembly will have
done a good deed for the state if it
does nothing but remove the 81 poll
tax as a voting requirement.
Lets have all the white people
vote irrespective as to whether any
taxes have been paid or not" Tai
madge said. "You will get fairer
expression from the people when
this is DONE.
There is a great deal of argu-
ment that the abolishment of the
poll tax would put the Negro to
voting" he continued. "Such is not
the case. The Negroes as a class
don't care to vote anyway, unless
they are encouraged by some COM
munistic elements. Allowing all of
the white people to vote will not af-
feet the question as to Negroes vot-
ting.
"As long as you can change,
monkey with, add on, or subtract
from the voters list, it gives the
slick ducks who want to steal on
election better opportunity" ="
Talmadge, said IF the legislature
does not do anything else this year
but fix the law where every sane
white person can vote in our white
primaries, they will have done a
good deed for the state y
