As We See It
 by THE STAFF

Alarmed at the defeat of its main bulwark, Winston Churchill, the re- actiOnary Papandreou government in Greece is resOrting to strong arm methods to suppress rising popular discontent. A mass meet ing to demand new government, scheduled to be held i'm Athens sta- dium by FAM, Greek resistance movement, was called off after the government threatened to break up the demonstration if it was held.
 The Creek government has good cause for alarm. Eleftheria Ellada, FAM newspaper, has printed mes- sages of encouragement to the Creek people from Chairman Har- old J. Laski of the British Labor party and from Dennis Pritt, Labor MP. Laski expressed the hope that ''the democratic Greek people will look to the new Labor government for full support in our common tasks,' Allied Labor News reported. Pritt said the election results ''give the Greek people new hope for lib- rating themselves from the abom- inable tyranny which Britain's re- actionary forces helped to estab- fish and keep in power.''
 WHEN the US. high command moved to set up shop for manu- facture of the top secret atomic bombs, not a word of information about the kind of job, type of pro- duct or other usual information could be released-and yet the WPB needed 5000 steamfitters and 5000 electricians and hosts of other building workers. Labor vice Chairman Joseph Keenan of WIPE was given the task of getting men into the hush-hush jobs at Clinton, Tenn, and Pasco, Wash.
 Keenan gave full credit to Act ing Pres. Richard Gray and Sec. Herbert Rivers of the Building Trades Dept, to Pres. William Hutcheson of the Bro. of Carpen- ters and others. It took nearly TO- 900 buildings for the Tennessee project and about 45,OOO at Pasco.
 HARPER'S Magazine points out that in 1914 civilian labor's patriot ism compared favorably with that of the U. s. Navy.

Can't Cut Work Week If It Is In Union Contract
VILE. So Rules For First / Time In Boards
 History

WASHINGTON-FP)-For the first time in its history, the Ma tional War Labor Board has re- jected a cOmpany's plea to reduce its guaranteed work week from AR to 40 hours.
 The action came when the WLR here affirmed an order of its re- gional board at Kansas City, Mo-. directing retention of present contract calling for a guaranteed 48 hour work week, with time and one half after 40 hours. Industry members dissented.
 Operating under 40 hour guaran- teed week from 1887 to 1942, the Phillips Petroleum Co. of Kansas City agreed to extend it to AS hours III 1922, signing a contract for the new guarantee with the Oil Workers Intl Union covering $50 workers.
 The WLB rejected the company's plea that anticipated decreases in pro- duction, the return of more employe- veterans and competitive disadvan- tageS necessitated the change in the guaranteed work week.
 Part of the WLB's order was based on its belief that the com- pany wanted to meet uncertain contingencies that might arise after the wars end, while the WLB it. self is concerned only with con- tract clauses governing wartime conditions.

Oppressive Laws

Teamsters' President Tells Political Parties Better
 Be CarefuI'

Washington (LPA) - President Daniel J. TObin of the Teamsters believes that if the old parties try to put over anti-labOr legislation on the order of the Halliburton Hatch bill, they will provoke Amer ican workers into formation of a new political party.
 Writing in the International Teamster," Tobin warned that both the Republicans and Democrats will destroy themselves" if they push through that kind of legislation.
 "They will be laying the ground work for a third party which may be based on extreme radicalism," Tobin said. "That third party would not get anywhere for a while, but it might control, in a few years, sufficient votes to hold the balance of power between the two parties.
 ''I have always been opposed to a third party in the past" he de- clared, ''but after 38 years as an in- ternatiOnal labor official, I have reached the conclusion that some- thing must be done by the men and women of America to show the bosses in the state and natiOn-or the wOuld-be bOsses-that they are digging their own graves by even seriously considering the Ball-Bur- tOn-Hatch bill"

 The text of the statement made by Felnmark is as follows:
 Labor greets with deepest joy tht wonderful news that the war is over The defeat of the feudalistic war. lords of Japan following the downfall of the unspeakable Nazis of German, and their Fascistic satellites is . glorious victory for humanity.
 ''ln this hour of victory let us pay tribute to our gallant soldiers, sailors and marines, many of whom gave their lives that the world might be free.
 ''Labor is in hearty agreement with President Truman's statement that this must be the last war, and ferVentIy hopes that inc unifv that prevails among the United Nations at present will continue indefinitely assurance of lasting peace. as 'The wars end creates new problems, and we must be ready to meet them with courage and deter imitation. Labor is cOgnizant of the fact that millions of our workers will undergo hardships during the recOnversiOn period as n result of unemployment from cut-backs. It is to be hoped that immediate steps will be taken to solve recOnversion problems in spirit of cooperation by government, management, labor and agriculture.
 eve have demonstrated in this country that all groups could work together to win ihe war; we must now show that we know how to work together to win the peace, and that we can go forward to achieve full production, full employment and prosperity"

WILL HELP ALL
 The bill is designed to stimulate the construction of l,25O,OOO dwell. ing units a year for the first 10 years. It provides federal subsidies of 33,OOO,OOO a year but it is believed that at the end of the fourth year after the war a total investment of seven billion dollars year of private and public funds would be generated for the hous- ing program.
 The following A.F.L. recommends tions were included in the bill whicf Senator Wagner said he hoped would be passed this year:
 Federal aid to municipalities for long-term redevelopment pro- gram designed to replan and re- build our cities and towns for sound and stable growth.
 2-Resumption and expansion of slum clearance and rehousing program by the local housing au- thOrities, under improved U. s. Housing Act, to provide decent homes to families of low income whom private enterprise cannot reach.
 3-Enlargement of market for rental housing for families of mod crate income through FILA insur- ance of yield on private investment in projects built for moderate rents.
 4-lmprOvement of housing on the farm and provision of lOw-cOst rural housing to farm families, on lease but for eventual ownership.
 5-Orderly disposition of per manent war housing, authorizing local housing authorities to acquire such housing and giving occupancy preference to servicemen and vet erans.
 6-Assurance that fair labor standards be maintained on postwar housing construction envisaged in the program.
 7-CreatiOn of permanent statutory National Housing Agency.

DRAMATIC INTEREST

DRAMATIC INTEREST
 Highights of the meeting were the statements made by Miss Agnes Wallace, president of the New Ha- ven Teachers League; by Harold V. Feinmark, secretary-treasurer of the Connecticut Federation of La bor; and by Ellis Ranen, general organizer of the American Fede- ration of State, County, and Muni- cipal Workers, A.F.L., who is in charge of the organization work being done by the city employees.
 Of dramatic interest was a pub- lie declaration by the Civic Advis- ory Board of the New Haven Joint Council of Municipal Employee Un- ions, under whose auspices the meeting was held, which welcomed ''this development in community relations" and said that fair set clement of the grievances of city employees ''will contribute to the progress of our municipal govern ment and promote social justice.' '' (The full text of this statement is published elsewhere in this issue.
 POLITICAL ACTION?
 The meeting was presided over by John Doyle, president of the Police mems Local, following a benedictior by the Rev. Edward Shea, pastor oi St. Bernadette's Church and chair man of the Civic Advisory Board Harold V. Feinmark, promised the support of the State Federation, and quoted Samuel Gompers: Organized labor works for its friends and de feats its enemies" adding, "-and there's an election coming in Novem- ber!'
 Miss Wallace expressed the sat- isfaction of civic employees over the passage of Ordinance ,2l5, but pointed out that an interpretation of the ordinance still remained to be made clear. ''The policy of the Teachers League has been one of honesty-we've wanted to bring things out in the open. That is our biggest objection to the Board of Education, for it hasn't tried to do this. We would like to settle our differences in dignified and American way, but SO far this has not been possible. Industry searches out among its workers for sugges- tions which make for greater eff ciency. Certainly we who think al- ways of children often have sug- gestions without the thought that we are trying to run someone else's business. When the ordinance is interpreted the way it was meant to be, we are headed for peaceful times, with morale built up and bet ter teaching conditions for our chill dren."
 COMMUNITY CONSCIENCE
 Elmer Ryman, State Statute Com missioner and a member of the Civic Advisory Board of the Employees Council, said: ''It's about time that the community had a conscience in this matter. It's also about time we recognized that city employees have certain inalienable rights. In spite of the intestinal fortitude of Miss Agnes Wallace, many civic employees have not been able to use these rights 1 may be charged with having a politi- cal arm in the fire, if that is so, it

Dulles Urges Adoption
Of Definite Policy by
u. ). on Pleas for Aid
1y the Associated Press,

Dy the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Dec. John Foster
Dulles, who was adviser to Secre-
tary of State Byrnes at the Foreign
Ministers Conference at London,
said today the United States should
adopt Simple, publicly defined
policy" toward extension of material
aid to other nations, in order to
avoid i'll will.
THE inevitable disappointment of
many hopes could make us the OBJ
tect of well-nigh universal jealousy
and dislike" he said. THAT sort of
spiritual isolation involves danger
from which no world organization,
no armament, could protect U.s."
In an address before the National
Association of Manufacturers, Mr..
Dulles said:
When pleas are pouring In from
every quarter of the world. we
should not seem to be capricious.
nor should we expose ourselves to
a charge of unfriendliness if we do
not do for all what we do for one.
We shall increase i'll will unless we
have some simple, publicly defined
policy.
Would Satisfy All.
1T will not satisfy all, but it
should make sufficient sense so that
even disappointed peoples will ap-
preclate why We do what we do.

Then at least we may retain their
respect"
Mr.. Dulles said he believed there
was severe limit to the material
aid which our Government ought to
extend"
"A member Of the British govern
ment told me he had calculated that
about one-half of our productive
capacity would adequately serve our
domestic needs" he said, land that
the other half ought to be dedicated
to the use of the rest of the world.
THAT was a reasoned approach
from a friendly quarter. If distress
and hopelessness grow, the demands
on us will not all be friendly and not
all be reasoned. Their aggregate will
be far beyond our capacity"
Mr.. Dulles, foreign affairs advisor
to Gov. Thomas E. Dewey in the
1914 presidential campaign, said
communistic doctrines need not b
feared in this country. 4 |
"The Soviet governments alnDst
fantastical insistence on posKar

that if the outer world kneF how
