NWLB Finding In Favor Of Keeping Wage Formula
Assailed by AFL

Only statisticians can be confused by
the magic of their averaging tech
nique."
Turning to the postwar signifi-
canoe of frozen wage rates, the AFL
charged the public members of the
WLB with seeking greater govern
ment control over collective bargain
ing, which would be mot only objec-
~tionable but an indication of dan
ger trend of thinking"
Submission to government regula-
tion of wages and interference with
the rights of American workers dur
ing war fought to defend freedom
has been necessary. But even a sug-
gestion that free collective bargain
ing shall be supplanted in large
measure by government regulation
during the underlined reconversion pc
riod is timely warning that the
organized workers of America can
i'll afford to overlook.
"The eventual outcome of this kind
of thinking is government-dominated
and controlled unionism. We cannot
subscribe to this solution of the prob
lem, which will be inescapable if the
rigid control of wages represented by
the Little Steel formula is to be con-
tinued."
The dissenting report was signed

would provide.
Speaking at meeting of the New
York Academy of Public Education
at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel, he as
serted that the nations educators had
vital part to play in building and
maintaining postwar national pros
perity. There cannot be higher
standard of living, he emphasized, un-
less educators teach Americans the
great lesson of consumption.
"A higher standard Of living and
full employment go hand in hand
they are corollaries of each other," he
said. eve cannot have 55 or 60 mil
lion jobs unless we have higher
standard of living that will consume
the product of so many jobs. Similar
ly, if we have the increased consum-
ing power, there will be a larger de-
mand for goods and services and con-
sequently more jobs to produce those
very things that our people want. ."
Mr.. Ruml said it was reasonable
to expect that American private bus
mess would provide 54 to Sc million
jobs after the war. He estimated that
positions in Government and military
services would add enough jobs to
that total to attain the national goal
Of 60,OOO,OOO.

Federal Reserve Board Chairman Predicts 40 Per Cent

New York City.-Beardsley Ruml,

and declared that to provide such a

must be attained.

Final Word on Wage Freeze
Now Up to FDR, AFL Insists

low.
They emphasized at the outset that
the record of the Presidents original
7-point anti-inflation program is
"sorry one" on every point save wage
regulation, adding:
"The contrast between the results
attained by the War Labor Board and
those produced by the other agencies
involved in the program is startling.
Indeed, the control of wages has been
so effective that the deficiencies of the
entire program have been hidden from
public view.
Nevertheless, by some strange
quirk of reasoning, whenever the pro-
gram is tagging more than usual, the
pressure is placed upon the one area
of control that has succeeded. AS a
consequence, the thumbscrews have
been steadily frightened upon workers
until now they have been asked to
forego even certain benefits which are
conducive to healthful living.
"The analysis of wage control pre-
sented in the statement of the public
members represents desperate ef-
fort to save the entire program of
fighting initiation at a cost to be
borne only by the wage earners and
for the enrichment of other groups in
| the economy"

Washington, D. C.-Sharply reject
ing the findings of the public men,
bers of the National War Labor Board
against any change in the wage freeze,
the AFL members of the board called
upon President Roosevelt to prevent
"e conomic disaster" by promptly and
realistically modifying the Little Steel
formula.
Since the President incorporated
the Little Steel formula into an exec
utive order and thus made it part of
the nations stabilization program, the
AFL group contended that it is up to
the President to make the final de-
cision on whether the formula should
now be. changed.
Arguments of the public members
against modification of the formula
were blasted to smithereens in the
AFL dissent.
The statement charged that the
public members, after years delay,
have resorted to the tricky expedient
of changing the measuring rod" Of
wages in order to justify their po-
sition.
From the beginning, the AFL group
pointed out, the NWLB has limited it's
sphere of regulation to "wage rates.
and has not used gross earnings or
''take-home pay" as it's guide. In their
latest report, however, the public
members seized upon a new measur-
ing rod, adjusted straight-time hour
ly earnings" This amounts to sta
tistical about-face since the adjust
ments" that are included make the
new measure a kind of "take-home
pay figure"
Exposing the injustice Of this meth
cd, the AFL asserted that if 10 men
in a plant received 10 cents an hour
increase, an average process is useo
to show that 20 men received cents
hourly increase.
"In this Manner" the AFL state.
