Drive for Compulsory Service Lost as Compromise
Bill is Beaten by Decisive Senate Vote
Senate Vote Seen AS Outstanding Victory For The
American Federation of Labor

Washington, D. c. (ILNS)-With
the Senate's decisive rejection Of the
compromise work service bill, the
drive to impose forced service on free
American labor has failed, at least for
the time being.
The Senate vote is seen as an out
standing victory for the American
Federation of Labor, which spear
headed the opposition to compulsory
service and fought it at every turn.
Senate rejection of the compromise
bill, by vote of 46 to 20, came in the
face of the fourth direct appeal this
year from President Roosevelt for
enactment Of forced labor service leg
islation. The compromise bill, agreed
to by Senate and House conferees,
would have frozen workers to essen
tial war jobs, established employ
ment ceilings and required employers

Labor Management Charter Adopted
10 Encourage Post War Recovery

agreement and understanding has
been increased. 1t means the substi-
tuition of industrial democracy for au-
tocratic control and cooperation in
stead of antiquated individual deci-
sions within the domain of labor-man-
agement activity.
"We look for most valuable results
from the application of this code of
principles. 1t is not perfect 1t will
not eliminate strikes altogether But
we can reduce them, we can substitute
arbitration and cooperation and
friendly understanding for the strife
and bitterness that have characterized
industrial relations"
The charter, it was disclosed, will
be submitted to the AFL Executive
Council for approval at it's next meet
ing and also to the executive boards
Of the other organizations.
Mr.. Johnston said the charter was
the outgrowth of long period of
realization "by all of US" to push for
better management relations in
the postwar period He emphasized
that the code is dynamic rather than
static and will have to be interpreted
and applied by the National Labor
Management Committee. This COM
mittee, he indicated, would set up
permanent staff and deal with specific
problems and policies.

Leaders OF Industry And Labor Agree On
7-POint Code

Mr.. Johnston, in announcing the
pact which was developed after
months of negotiation, declared there
are two roads America can travel
after the war.
Gone will lead to high degree of
industrial peace" he said "The other
will lead to industrial chaos. One will
mean high levels of employment, high
levels of wages, high levels of pro-
duction-in other words, prosperity
The other road will lead to lowered
employment, lowered wages, lowered
standards of living and, of course,
bankruptcy, eventually"
The labor Encouragement agreement,
Mr.. Johnston declared, shows the de-
termination of labor and industry to
follow the first road.
Speaking for the American Fedora
tion of Labor, Mr.. Green said:
eve subscribed wholeheartedly to
the code of principles embodied in the
charter.
Through acceptance of these prin-
ciples, the area of controversy within
the field of human relations in indus
try has been reduced and the field of

to share with employees penalties for
violations of regulations.
New Conference Asked
After killing the conference agree
ment, the Senate almost unanimously
urged acceptance Of the O'Mahoney-
Kilgore bill, which it had previously
adopted and asked the House for a
new conference. The O'Mahoney-Kil-
gore measure was approved by the
AFL with the exception of one amend
ment providing fines and Jail penal
ties for employers violating it's pro-
visions.
With the next move, if any, up to
the House, the manpower legislation
returns to nearly the status which pre-
vailed March 8, when the Senate pass
ed the O'Mahoney- -Kilgore bill, 63 to
16, without taking direct vote on
the May Bailey bill, approved by the
House Feb. by vote of 246 to 165.
The House bill was strenuously op-
posed by organized labor.

zation Director James F. Byrnes that

powers contained in labor draft legis-
lation after the war is over and dur

promise bill.

Washington, D. C.-Labor and man.
agement paved the way for the es-
tablishment of industrial peace and
prosperity in the postwar period by
adopting charter for cooperative re-
lations.
Parties to the precedent-shattering
agreement, announced at one of the
largest press conferences in Wash
ington's history, were the American
Federation of Labor, the United
States Chamber Of Commerce and the
CIO. The National Association of
Manufacturers withheld it's immediate
participation, although many employ
ers affiliated with that organization
approved the pact.
The ~seven-point charter, aimed at
maximum postwar production with
full employment at high wage levels,
gave recognition to the rights of pri-
vate property on the one hand and to
labor's right to organize and bar
gain collectively on the other. 1t
pledged support to the establishment
of social security and to international
organization for world peace and call
ed for expansion of world trade.
To implement the charter per-
manent committee will be set up. This
committee will formulate point labor
management policies and will present
them to the Government for action
and approval By this means, labor
and management propose a maximum
of self-government and minimum of
Government regulation.
Named to the committee at the out
set were:
For the American Federation of
Labor - President William Green,
Secretary Treasurer George Meany
and International Representative
Robert J.. Watt.
For the CIO-President Philip
Murray, R. J. Thomas and Sidney
Hillman.
For industry President Eric John

merce; Paul C. Hoffman, president of

The list grew. Dewey hesitated. Cycles
showed prices almost at their low But what
of the war? Would it shatter the rhythm?
Dewey followed the cycles. He bought You
know what happened: Prices are still rising.
Don't get the wrong idea of Dewey. He
is no cold-blooded chartist He saw his only
son, Ned, off to the Navy one year ago. His
daughter, Barbara. is junior at Smith COL
lege. His wife, Catherine, knits for the Red
Cross, is active in war work. So is he.
But cycles are his absorbing passion. When
Barbara was IL she wrote theme: Fathers
are pain in the neck. All they say is Don't
do this " Dewey Immediately set out to
establish the rhythm of his remarks. He went
to the kitchen, raided his wifes bean jar.
Every time l bawl you out, Barbie." he
said, I'M put a bean in my right-hand pocket.
Every time say something nice, I'll put
one in my left. You'll see. I'm not SO bad
as you Think Three days later he quit
- Barbara was right.
At home in Riverside, Conn, Dewey runs
a V-garden according to cycles. How come?

Dewey can tell you dozens of such stories
Remember the floods of AZ? In 1899 he sus-
pected they were coming Why? Years before

and Allegheny River valleys looking for old

and two hemlocks in Pennsylvania that were

America. From their rings, narrow in dry
years, wide in wet ones. he discovered a
weather cycle of 9O.4 years. predicted the

What's ahead for you? Rain east of the
Mississippi this fall and next winter. Perhaps

add.

DEWEY describes himself as really only a
Jack-of-all-trades, not scientist" His COL
leagues disagree. They consider him better
scientist than many man with Ph.D..
He was graduated from Harvard enw LGnde
in 1920; was market analyst for the U. S.
Rubber Company: headed his own mortgage
company; was assistant secretary of Presi-
dent Hoover's Banking and Industrial Com
mittee and consultant of the National
Association of Manufacturers. But what
interests Dewey most is the purely scientific
side of cycles.

noticed mice were overrunning Ithaca, N. Y,
cellars He kept census, discovered they
multiply to scourge proportions every presi-
dental election year. Pure coincidence, of
course" says Dewey.
Cycles even affect us human beings. Pro-
fessor Huntington studied birth records of
famous people His findings: Great American
educators, writer's and philosophers tend to be
born in February, March and April. Artists,
musicians and actors in October and Novem-
ber Industrialists, statesmen and generals
from October to January. But May, June and
July are poor birth months for any kind of
genius Il was born in May" says Dewey.
Huntington investigated millions of birth
and death records, came up with this startler:
If you were born in January, February,
March or April. chances are you will live
two years longer than people born in
July, August or September.
Even your moods rise and fall in cycles.
Your weight, too, shifts rhythmically. So
don't be upset if you lose weight in February,
gain in September. Most people do.
As for clothes, women's fashions shift from
tubular to bell to hustle styles every IS years.
Bustles are on the way back now - but
they're not due till 1870.
Rhythnas Affect Business
A DOZEN different rhythms may affect your
business. Out of 500 businesses studied, about
half tended to follow 4l-month cycle.
Others follow cycles of about 9, "a or 33
months Still others react to half dozen
patterns at once.
Detecting these rhythms often can spell
success or failure to firm. One dress goods
house planned to plunge a small fortune in
rayons and velvets. One look at its cycle -
and it stopped. Its business was saved.
Then there's the story of Westinghouse.
Back in 1895, executives learned their busi
ness swayed to the 4l-month pattern. They
