WLB ruled. however. that its wage
awards could not take effect until
it had ironed out a dispute with
Economic Stabili2er Fred NJ. Vinson
ever the question Of price relief.
MAKES CHARGES
Emil Rieve, president OF the Tex
tile Union. charged In New York
that the order merely confirms the
union position that the board IS
no longer a free agent, able 70 make
its own decisions
IN effect" he said. the board
says that it recognizes the fact that
cotton-rayon textile workers re-
ceive substandard wages but that
il cannot give them what equity and
justice demand because VinSon mas
tied the boards hands
The unions repudiation OF the
'no-strike" pledge was based ON the
specific charge that cotton textile
manufacturers had used political
pressure to prevent wage increases
for cotton workers.
Among major labor complaints are
the governments failure TO adjust
the little steel" formula to higher
living costs and Wilson'S recent
order to the WLB to withhold dec
ision on fringe" wage increases
until it was established that no price
adjustments would be required.
HELD UNWORKABLE
The WLB itself has objected TO
the Vinson order as "unworkable.
BY announcing its wage decisions in
the textile and packing house cases
it dumped the entire issue squarely
in Wilson'S lap.
The United Packing House Work
ers (CIO) helped bring the entire
issue to climax by threatening TO
issue a strike call if the wage dec
ision were not made public by last
night.

Concerning the substitute for the work
or iail'' bill passed by the House which
Senators and CIO representatives have
worked out, it may be said that in sub
stance it is proposal to give real power
to the War Manpower Commission.
Whatever merits such measure might
have in theory, it probably will not work
in practice, so long as Paul V. McNutt
is manpower commissioner and since the
President rarely removes anybody unless
that person is competent (Jesse Jones
was competent) there is slight expacta-
ton that McNutt will be replaced.
McNutt has been reluctant to use what
power he has and has never asked for
more, though it has been rumored at var
ious times he was about to do so. The
chances are that McNutt would fiddle
with the problem as he has with all 9TH
ers and accomplish very little. Perhaps
this NAV be what the CIO hopes for.
The present German attitude is not
apathetic or dull resignation. SO much
terror has rained on us that we have pass

Workers. Production
Tips Save $3O,OOO,OOO

Washington, d. C. QLNS).-Em-
ploye suggestions for producing bat
tle-needed equipment faster, cheaper
and better saved the Navy an estl-
mated $30,000,000 during 1914. This
figure stemmed from over 5000 ideas
culled from $4,000 submitted during
the year by civilian workers in Navy
shipyards, ammunition depots, and a
variety of other Naval shore estab-
lishments.
The new tips on production meth
DDS ranged from a suggested modi-
fication of elevation gear on an air.
craft turret to better packing meth
DDS for Navy equipment going over
seas. Eight civilian workers received
a total of $500 for their ideas which,
in addition to affecting substantial
savings, have shortened production
schedules and improved the striking
power of the fleet.
One of the highest cash awards
ever given for a suggestion box"
entry amounted to $4,000 and went
to James T. Wong, 41-year-old civil
liam electrician employed by the Navy
at Mare Island, Calf. Wong's VIM
ming idea concerned the prepacking
of stuffing tubes, 10000 of which are
used on modern combat ship.

UNION ASKS
CIVILIAN BOARD
FOR DIRECTORS

New York City QLNS).-A civilian
board to review the cases of conscien-
tious objectors in the U. S. army was
urged on Secretary of War Henry l..
Stimson by the American Civil Liber-
ties Union recently. In a letter signed
by Ernest Angel, New York attorney
and chairman Of the Committee or
Conscientious Directors of the Civl
Liberties Union, Secretary Stimsor
was told that "the recent case OF
Private Henry Weber sentenced tc
death by court martial for refusal
to bear arms emphasizes again the
desirability of having review by
civilians of all men in the army
claiming conscientious objection on
any grounds.
"This suggestion was presented to
the President months ago by our
committee and was referred to you. A
report was received through the
President to the effect that the War
Department did not deem that oppor-
tune or necessary. May we urge very
strongly that steps again be taken to
create such civil review which
would avoid such unhappy incidents
as that of the court martial of Pri-
vate Weber ?"

Conscription Is
Only Smokescreen
Campaign Is Denounced
By Socialist Committee

Philadelphia QLNS).-In a vigor-
Gus denunciation of the campaign for
peacetime conscription, the Socialist
party's national executive committee
in session here, declared:
To-day while the youth of this gen.
Grafton are dying in unprecedented
numbers to liquidate Internationally
the map-making' powers, President
Roosevelt urges Americans to aban-
don their traditional hatred of this
old world curse and embrace con-
scription as part of his scheme for
peace. Thus have two wars to end
war and save democracy undermined
American ideals.
"The President is reported as
forming these unprecedented military
measures as means to alleviatlng
postwar unemployment.
"The Socialist party must urge all
true Americans to denounce such
cynicism regarding the prospects for
peace and prosperity. Faith in the
possibility of the good life is essen
tial to building the good life. Man
does not progress by abandoning the
fight for progress. Laying the frame
work for postwar politics and eco
nomics must not be left to men who
accept defeat before the peace con-
ference is held.
"The proposal for peace-time con-
scription is smoke screen becloud-
ing the road to peace and plenty. 1t
is calculated to turn mems minds to-
ward balancing gun-power and away
from international economic coopera-
tion for full employment, full produc-
tion and full consumption. 1t leads
to further war and depression-with
democracy going down under the
catastrophe which arrives first"
