ON THE ROAD

Last week many national leaders gathered in
New York City to participate in the induction cere-
mony for Irwin c. Molison of Chicago who was
being sworn in as a judge of the u Customs
Court Following the simple ceremony these lead
ers paid tribute to Judge Mollison and congratulated
him on his good fortune. Speaker after speaker,
however, touched upon one note which we believe
should warrant attention from all those who want
to see democracy work in our land.
Congressman William L. Dawson hit the note
directly when he declared that the appointment Of
Judge Moson by President Truman marks the be-
ginning of new era of Negro participation in gov
eminent. The Congressman was mindful Of the
Negroes role in the Democratic party and he re-
garded Mr.. Mollisons appointment the result Of
the earnest endeavors of simple people who did
their part"
All Negroes earnestly hope for chance to
participate in their government and in the realm
of politics they have right to look for rewards for
service rendered If President Truman will con-
tinue to 20 forward in this direction and give Ne
groes who are qualified an opportunity to partici
pate in government at all levels, he will indeed usher
in new era of democracy in America In doing
this he will strengthen the Democratic party despite
all that may be said of the Southerners who for
ever threatening to bolt in order to preserve their
prejudices
Political observers often speak of the Democra-
tic party ship sailing in treacherous waters with
extremists in the North and extremists in the South
doing constant battle. They argue that if Mr.. Tru-
man can pilot the Democratic ship skillfuy he may
have chance for reelection in 1948 There is indeed
great truth in this observation. Nevertheless, some
of the Southern extremists slowly beginning to
realize that if the Democratic party reverts to a
reactionary, Tory political organization it is lost.
cratic party to win national election without sup
port of the Southern reactionaries.
1t is significant that Judge Mollison was spon-
sored by U. S. Attorney General Tom Clark who is
Texan. 1t is significant also that the United
States Senate without dissenting vote confirmed
the appointment of Mr. Mollison. The administra-
ton forces were able to bottle up the Bibonic Ne
gro-baters in the interests of the Democratic party
1t may be also that new light is beginning to dawn
upon some of these Southerners who owe some Of
their present power to the fact that the Democratic
party with the help of tremendous Negro vote won
the national election.
BY giving Negroes an opportunity to partci-
pate in government, President Truman can give
meaning to the guiding principles of our Republic
and at the time broaden the political base of the
Democratic party. We join with the leadership
which has expressed the hope that the appointment
Of Mr.. Mollison as the first Negro federal Judge
within the United States is the first important step
on the road to new era of Negro participation in
government.

Labor Spokesman and Others
Charge Shortage Of Ship Repair
Workers Due to Navy's WagePolicy
Bames Navy Departments Wage Rate For Ship Repair
AS Reason Workers Do Not Cooperate

Washington, D. C. (ILNS).-Crit-
ical need for skilled workers in Pacific
Coast ship repair yards is due to the
Navy's wage policy, John P. Frey,
president of the American Federation
of Labor's Metal Trades Department,
Senator Wayne Morse Of Oregon, and
other members of Congress charged
here.
The shortage of workers is esti-
mated at $1,000 men and Secretary
Of the Navy Forrestal said on Me-
mortal Day that workers were leav-
ing the yards in alarming numbers.
Ships damaged in action against the
Japanese are crowding the West Coast
yards, resulting in a serious situa-
tion.
In statement on the Navy's an
nouncement, President Frey said:
"The policy of the Navy Depart
ment since 1862 has been to pay the
same wage rate as that paid by pri-
vate management for similar work
The Navy Department was party to
the amendments to the 1941 ship re-
pair agreement at conference held in
San Francisco the latter part Of May
1912 In that agreement the Navy
Department approved Of the payment
of 1850 above the hourly rate fol-
new ship construction. Translated in
to the pay envelope contents it means
the mechanics employed on ship re-
pair receive $1.34 instead of the $1.2(
pay for new ship construction work
Says Rate Is Not Paid
However, the Navy Department in
its yards on the Pacific Coast re.
fuses to pay more than $1.26 an houl
for repair work. Is it surprising that
ship repair workmen do not flock t.
navy yards to secure employment?
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1945-06-15

$50 far as the Los Angeles situa-
ton is concerned the Navy Depart
ment has declined to permit ship re-
pairmen in Los Angeles and San
Diego to pay the ship repair rate for
ship repair work to their employees.
The ship repair workmen of southern
California are the only ship repair
workers anywhere in the United
States who do not receive some agreed
to form of additional compensation
for repair work"
Senator Morse, a former member
Of the National War Labor Board, de-
clared that the shortage of workers
could be traced largely to the Navy's
own labor policies. He said it was his
judgment "there need be no real basis
for the Navy's fears if it would pro-
ceed to iron out it's labor policies on
the West Coast"
Defends Wage Differential
He pointed out that private yards
on the Pacific Coast pay differen-
tial of 11.6 cents per hour on repair
work, as compared with new construc-
ton. Asserting that there was ade-
quate basis for this differential,
Morse said the Navy not only had
failed to meet this deserved" differ
entail, but "there appears to be some
basis for the charge of labor that it
has been application of this differen-
tial.
He said the so-called San Francisco
amendments of 1912 to the ship re-
pair agreements of 1941 were partici-
pated in by the Government and ap-
proved by the heads Of the procure
ment agencies.
The WLB a few days ago, for the
second time since the war began, an
nounced it had refused to extend the
11.6-cent repair differential to South
ern California private yards.
Navy Denies Morse Statement
In reply to Senator Morse, Navy
spokesman said:
with respect to the statement by
Senator Morse that the Navy's labor
policy is responsible for the shortage
of workers in West Coast repair
yards, it is pointed out that the Navy
does pay and has paid throughout the
entire war period the 11.6-cent repair
differential in these yards where the

Washington, D. C.-Rallying the
forces of labor against the threat of
initiation, AFL President William
Green demanded extension of the
Price Control Act for eighteen months
without modification.
Mr.. Green called upon all Ameri-
can Federation of Labor affiliates to
designate the week of June 1917 as
Eight Initiation Week" and added:
81 urge our entire membership to
voice to the Congress during that
week their determined opposition to
the modification Of the Price Control
Act or it's curtailment as inimical to
the best interests of labor and Of the
nation"
Mr.. Green warned that strong pres
sures are developing to cripple the
price control law through amendments
or to limit it's extension to only six
months beyond the present expiration
date, June 80.
He insisted that the law must be
continued for another year and half
''in order to protect the incomes of
wage earners, the savings of War
Bond holders and to safeguard the
entire nation from the destructive eff
fects of runaway initiation which,
without price control, we cannot es-
cape"
In circular letter to all State Fed
erations and city central bodies, Mr..
Green added:
Labor must be especially mindful
of the fact that limiting the extension
of price control to short period
such as six months, would cripple the
reconversion and unemployment pro-
gram and result in widespread idle
ness.
cit is plain that if Congress de.
clares it's intention to terminate al
price controls at the end of this year
producers of civilian goods, anticipat.
ing sharp price rise after the con-
trolls are ended, would hold their prod
ucts off the market until that time
and thus create artificial shortages.
"Others will be encouraged to hole
back their production until after the
controls are off. In the meantime, ad
vance notice to the general public thai
prices will be allowed to go up at the
end of the year is bound to result in 6
stampede for the civilian goods still
on the market by all those who woult
want to buy them before the certain
rise in prices.
