PIONEER LABOR BROADCAST

Back in 1884, when it was just about
impossible to hear regularly the labor

two or three minor station, both radio

Albert N. Dennis, who had been
news editor of various labor papers

served as acting editor of the official

YOUR POSTWAR JOB
BY Boris Shishkin,
AFL Economist

Thousands of Americans are now
looking for new jobs. 1t won't be long
before millions of workers will be do
ing the same thing. This isn't their
fault. They are not just shopping
around for a better break. They are
unemployed or will be because of cut
backs in war production and the slow
pace of reconversion.
employment picture going to get !?
The American Federation of Labor is
making careful study in order to
help disemployed workers and dis
charged war veterans find new jobs
as quickly as possible We have un-
dertaken a nationwide job survey
with the help of our affiliated unions
and will report the facts to you, be-
ginning today.
Our first report is encouraging. 1t
comes from the building industry and
from the patternmakers' trade.
Boom times are ahead for skilled
patternmakers. That's what George
Lynch, President of the Patternmak-
ers' League of North America tells US.
The relatively small membership of
this union makes the original models
of kinds of machinery and tools. Re-
conversion means a rush season for
thic trada ca If apu cki1lad pattarn
makers are out of job, just apply to
your union.
The Building Trades unions also ex-
pect to have plenty of work, but in
most cases not Immediately. The trou-
BILE is that building materials are still
scarce. That's what's holding up one
of the greatest home construction pro-
grams in the nations history.

HEALTH INSURANCE
BY Nelson Cruikshank,
Social Security Director for AFL

Social Security Director for AFL
Americas best national defense in
time of peace is health insurance. Just
think of it! The Selective Service Sys-
tenn was forced to reject four million
American boys of military age during
this war because of physical defects.
No wonder that legislative represent
atives of the AFL testified before the
House Postwar Committee that ma
tional health program would be of
greater benefit to our country in the
future than compulsory military train
ing. 81
practical system of national health
insurance is proposed in the Wagner
Murray -Dingell Bill now before Con-
gress. Of course, this law does not
guarantee that every American citizen
will be healthy all of his life. But it
does provide insurance against the
costs of medical and hospital care. 1t
does guarantee that our people no
longer will have to fear going to a
doctor when they feel i'll because of
the expense involved. 1t does provide
for the establishment Of hospitals in
sections of our country where such
| facilities do not now exist. 1t does in
clude an expanded program for child
health and maternity care. And final
ly, it does supply funds for research
and study of new methods to fight
diseases which take a greater toll of
lives than even wars.
However, the Wagner Murray Din
gell bill does not mean State medicine.
1t does not force patient to go to a
doctor the Government chooses. 1t
does not compel doctors to take any
patient the Government sends along.
On the contrary, it provides for free
system, wholly in accord with Amer
ican traditions.
Make no mistake about it, this leg
islation faces long delays and fierce
opposition before it is adopted, Sena-
tor Wagner told me public hearings
will not begin before September. But
the American Federation of Labor will
not be referred by opposition. We have
enlisted in this war against disease
this crusade for national health-for
the duration.

Rankin Getting Ranker

Washington, D. C.-Polltaxer John
Rankin, chairman of the House Vete-
rams Committee, ignored the objec-
tions of Veterans Administrator Frank
Hines and hoodwinked the members
of his own committee when he re-
ported favorab1y on his own bill CIV
ing veterans a ''free ride" in union
plants.
Minority members of the House
Committee charged that Rep. Rankin
had skipped public hearings on the
bill which has been widely denounced
as an attempt to pit veterans against
union workers and place them in the
false position of strikebreakers.
On it face, the bill exempts war
veterans from joining a union, pay
ing initiation fees or dues even If the
plant they seek employment in is
operating under closed shop contracts
Rankin ignored the fact that most
uIllOIS dlItoSy IldFC VOiuileoiiiy WoiF
ed initiation fees for ex-servicemen.
Commenting on the bill editorially,
the Washington Post, conservative
newspaper, said:
rep. John Rankin has scheme for
union-busting which he fancies will ap-
peal to American servicemen. Our own
guess is that they will readily see
through it as plain piece of dema-
gogy.
"Mr. Rankin, as matter of fact,
let the cat out of the bag and dis
closed his real purpose when he said
that his bill would allow veterans to
take jobs vacated by strikers. What
we need is not means of fomenting
industrial disputes but means of ad-
justing them in a friendly spirit"

institution, constantly expressing the
labor viewpoint, aiding materially in
public understanding of labor's
methods and objectives and rendering
valuable service in the gradual pro-
gress of the great American labor
movement.
On July Is, 1945, Albert N. Dennis
Labor News Review" was scheduled
to begin it's twelfth consecutive year,
its 573rd weekly broadcast. For three
and half years, Mr.. Dennis put the
program on at his own expense, but
now the Columbia Broadcasting Sys-
TEN pays him for the job; still the
program has never cost any labor or
ganization as much as one cent for
time or service
The Labor News Review" has gone
on to establish 18 distinct records, in
cluding that of being the oldest con-
tinuously presented labor program in
the world and the oldest continuously
presented news program of any kind
in America.
Now labor is getting a slight "break''
on the radio, it's views are heard more
often and they are presented more
accurately, often by responsible union
officials. There was a lot of "water
under the bridge" since the establish
ment of the "Labor News Review
and it is widely agreed that this re-
liable old program pioneered the way
for the better break that labor is get
ting on the radio today 1t is held in
high esteem and several organizations
have made special awards to Mr.. Den
mis- for outstanding public service"
So, in appreciating the fact that the
labor viewpoint is now getting around
better, it might be well to remember

WHY THE DELAY?

Administration leaders in Congress
owe an explanation to the nation fol-
the long delay in introducing a bill
to liberalize unemployment compen-
sation benefits, as asked by Presi-
dent Truman.
Some six weeks ago, the President,
in special message to Congress, urg-
ed rush action to meet the emergency
caused by war work cutbacks. Con-
gress yawned and nothing was done.
Now, an administration bill has been
introduced "by request" as Chairman
Robert L. Doughton of the House
Ways and Means Committee put it.
But there seems to be no steam be-
hind the measure, Congress is planning
summer recess and there is little
hope for action until it gets back in
September.
There is urgent need for the pro-
posed legislation, to avoid unneces-
sary hardship to workers and their
families. Present unemployment COM
pensation payments are inadequate
The proposed legislation would be a
big help to wage earners and to gen.
eral business as well. Then why the
delay in acting on it? No satisfactory

Truman Cuts Hours
Of Federal Employees

Washington, D. C.-President Tru-
man directed that the hours of federal
employees in all but six agencies be re-
duced from 48 to Al weekly. The ex-
empted agencies were told to cut hours
at the earliest possible date.
Employees who go on 44-hour week
will lose four hours of overtime, but
they will be paid more than they re-
ceived for a 48-hour week, thanks to
a wage boost approved by Congress
and signed by the President.

However, the international Union
of Operating Engineers reports that it
will soon have plenty of jobs avail
able on new roads for which the States
have already appropriated large sums.
Such projects also will provide many
jobs for laborers with lesser skills.

employment prospects in the clothing

COMMENT ON WORLD EVENTS

How the United Nations Charter
drawn up at the San Francisco con-
ference looks to the American Fed
Grafton of Labor is briefly summarize
ed in the federation's current monthly
review, which emphasizes that the
United States has the responsibility
for leading the world in ratifying the
charter.
To bring the United Nations into
being, the charter must now be ap-
proved by all Great Powers-Britain,
Russia, China, France and the United
States-and by majority of the 45
smaller powers. President Truman, in
his closing address, hailed the charter
as "great instrument of peace" and
called on all nations to make it liv-
ing thing by ratifying it at once
then using it.
The charter presents plan on pap
er; it sets up the machinery for inter.
national cooperation and the worlds
future will depend on how that plar
| is used by the nations of the world,
the AFL says. 1t goes on to say thai
the world faces situatino very like
that faced by the United States il
1887 before we had ratified our owl
constitution.

"Today we think of the U. S. Con
stitution as one of the wisest docu
ments ever produced by men," the All
survey says. "But to those who frame'
it, it seemed "bundle of compro
mises,' and far from perfection. Man,
said it would not work and some OF ou
leading statesmen at that time wer
so eager for perfection that they evel
refused to sign it. Yet our Constitu
tion, our own paper plan of 1887, wa
ratified, and by the use we made o

"Americans are again called to lead

ganization. The first step is ratifi-
cation by the Senate. The plan is no
more perfect than our own Constitu-
tion was perfect at first. But it sets
up the machinery which, if rightly
used, can give the world security and
peace. It is the only instrument
through which mankind can work to
bring about the kind of world our boys
have fought and died to make possi-
ble."
Then the AFL survey goes on to de-
clare that the United Nations Charter
was greatly improved at San Fran
cisco. The conference wrote into it
basic principles of freedom, justice
law and human rights insisted on by
the American Federation of Labor
| The Inter- American security plar
! (provided in the Act of Chapultepec)
was linked into the world organization
so that the western hemisphere may
build up strong organization of goot
neighbors within the greater worle
league.
The AFL lists other constructive
features of the charter and says il
conclusion:
"The United States, the creates
democracy and the greatest militar!
power on earth, has responsibility fol
leading the world in ratifying thi
charter. Our one hope of world peace
lies in making the United Nations al
