Truman Receives Demand OfLabor For More Wages
20%o Increase Sought By A.F.L. - Green Cites
 Great Need For It

WASHINGTON = Immediate wage increases to make up for shrinking take-home pay caused by cutbacks and elimination of overtime work were demanded of President Truman last week by AFL Pres. William Green at a White House conference.
 A few hours after he met Green, the President told press conference that he contemplated no immediate action to raise wages. He said, how ever, that thorough study of the wage question was now being made, after which he would have more to say on the subject.
 Green made public statement which he left with the President asking for an ll@o pay increase right away and another raise ''as soon as reconversiOn gets under way" Ths total wold be 2Oao.
 Production Doubled
 The Green statement asserted that gross national production in the United States has more than doubled in the five years from 1939 to 1924, even while II million experienced men went into military service.
 The enormous productivity in crease gave employers ability to pay corresponding wage increases" it de- clared. Figures are cited to show that American business is able, to pay the wage increase.
 Whenever existing low wages
The union times., 1945-06-23

cause manpower bottlenecks as for example in textile, lumber and soil pipe, then the necessary wage increase should be negotiated and submitted to the National War Labor Board for approval and recommendation for price adjustment if necessary" the statement said:
 ''The ending of overtime, that is, the reduction of the work week to 40 hOurs," the statement con. tinued, twill mean loss of $l5,- COG, 100000 in workers yearly in. come as compared with their present take home pay.
 ''The change from highly paid war production jobs to lower paid peactime jobs will cause an addi- tional loss of $3,OOO, 100000. The net reduction in the nations labor force, when emergency war work. CTS withdraw, will reduce workers buying power by another $5,OOO,. 100000.
 "This adds up to a total loss of $23,000O00,000 in workers buying power during the reconversion period which is beginning now and will con- tinue until we reach full peacetime employment after VI Day.
 "Of this $23,OOO,OOO,0OO, at least $13,000,000,0O0 must be restored to workers if we are to create post war market.

public and asked Whiteley if addi- tional legislation were needed.
 He responded that he felt pres ent laws are adequate if the conn mission is given sufficient funds to properly enforce them.
The union times., 1945-06-23
Here's Why

Here are the reasons pointed out by AFL Pres. Green why in- dustry can afford to raise wage increases.
 Increased prOducfiUity. The national productivity of the United States has more than doubled in the five-year period l939-l944. Military production rose from $I,4OO,OOO,OOO to $86, ,3OO,O O,OOO,OOO, while civilian production rose from $87,- 2OO,OOO,OOO to $ll2,4OO,OOO,- OOC.
 Production per man hour rose 47ao between Jan., l943, 10 Sept, l944.
 Business profits. Wages were frozen while productivity increased, bringing ''enormous" increases in profits. From l939 to l944 corporation profits be- fore taxes rose fOurfold-from $5, AGO million to $24,87O mill lion.
 Profits of unincorpora,ed businesses almost doubled in the same time-from $6,9OO, ,0OO,- GOO to $l2,3OO,OOO,OOO.

Labor Aid Helps In Fight Against VD

NEW YORK CITY. = Organized labor has become an increasingly im- portant ally in the nations fight against the venereal diseases, Dr.. Walter Clarke, Executive Director of American Social Hygiene Associa- tion, declared upon issuing the Asso- ciation's Annual Report for 1914.
 Through the active support and interest of officers and editors of many union bodies, large numbers of war-essential workers in industry have received valuable information about the control and prevention of syphilis and gonorrhea," Dr. Clarke said, "and this splendid cooperation IS continuing on an expanding scale"
 The association reports that its series of seven articles, Unite Against VD," has appeared in more than 70 labor publications.

Public Falls For Fake Nostrums.
 Many Harmful
All Sorts Of Connections Being Sold, Official Tells
 Congress

Testimony on the many nOstrums and devices with which charIatans prey upon the people was heard this week by the subcommittee of the House Labor Committee as it continued with its investigation of the plight of millions of handicap ped men, women and children in this country.
 It came from Richard P. White1ey, assistant chief counsel of the Federal Trade Commission, which for years has been trying to clean out sordid business that is, incidentally, the source of a considerable amount of radio and newspaper advertising profits.
 One of the worthless cOntrap- tions and cOncoctions Whiteley dis cussed was a ''violet ray' machine, which was advrtised as a cure for 86 different ailments. Another ray machine was not only worthless as a cure, but actually made worse certain types of ailments.
 This was also true of an "ozone generator" which was advertised as a cure for tuberculosis and a dozen other diseases.
 A diabetes ''cure" was nothing more than a laxative preparation and ''medicine'' for kidney and bladder ailments was turpentine was harmful to those organs. The list of these fake medicines, as compiled by the F. T. C., would all most fill a column.
 The committee observed that the commission "has done a good job, but still has much to do in protecting the

Members Of AFL
 Doing Their Share

WASHINGTON. ID. C. - Around 100000 workers are engaged in making the new ''COOp' and other fire-bearing bombs which are credited with dropping more devasta- ton on Japan than even the bombed-Out German cities felt, according to Army Chem ical Warfare Service.
 The roll of workers includes members of numerous unions at Army Ordnance plants, as well as AFL members at Bade-Cum- mins Company, Louisville, and the Lonergan Company, Albion, Mich.
 VERY INCENDIARY
 Incendiary bombs, the Army ex- plains, are especially devastating on Jap targets after explosive bombs have ripped open factory or other building and left it vul- nerable to fire. The incendiaries, dropped by second wave of bombers or on days after high cx- plosives have hit, finish the de- struction of bomb-hit targets by starting fires virtually impossible to extinguish.
 Four principal types of thickened- gasoline incendiaries are disclosed to be in use against the Japanese, rang ing from small six-pound bombs dropped in clusters of thirty-eight each to the 500-pound block-burner which, needing only lightweight shell casing to enclose its fiery ingre- dients, contains three times as much destructive force as 50-pound high explosive bomb.
 The lO-pound Coop Bomb" which spouts fire-making jelly is the recentIy-revealed secret weapon of Army Chemical Warfare Serv- ice. The violently infiammable chemicals in this bomb come over the target like lava erupting from VOACHUOs AHU aEC dS uAMkCut uo volcanic lava to extinguish. One of the ingredients, a mixture of mag. nesium and asphalt called ''goop." gives the bomb its name.
 Coop was discovered when a mag nesium product stored in a Kaiser plant in California, employing AFL members, inexplicably burst into flames. Coop" is manufactured some what as a cake is baked. Workers dump mixture into kettle, cream it. add a small amount of several chemicals, and paddle to prelim- mary brew. This is put into a dough mixer, gasoline is added and the mix ture is beaten to pastry batter. This batter is then placed in churn, dl- luted with jellied gasoline, and mixed to an even mass. The result ant lava is a strong, rubbery mate rial which sticks in glue-like gibbs to anything it reaches, and because of its magnesium content produces the hottest flame ever known. This deadly lava will fly for 25 yards, land under the caves and against walls ot buildings, cling to the surface and burn.
 These fire bombs made by Amer ican workers are carrying blazing defeat directly to the heart of Japan.

Majority Of Women Want To Keep Jobs

The Women's Bureau of the De partment of Labor has just released the first of the surveys it is making
The union times., 1945-06-23

in war production centers to see how many women want to go on working after the shooting stops.
 It shows that three out of every four in the Detroit area plan to con tinue and that with 85 per cent of them it IS matter of necessity, rather than choice. They have fam lilies or others dependent upon them and hubby doesn't get enough to meet the family budget.
 This means, according to the bureau that in the Detroit area alone, there would be 312,000 women in the labor market, or 100 per cent more than were employed in 1o4O.

 'TO express these trends am other way: In l94I the average building tradesman with n family of four had $57.56 as spendabIe weekly income from his 40 hour week. In l944, although $4.24 more was on his. weekly pay en- velope, $6.l6 was withheld for taxes, and price increases reduced his spendable income to only $46.85-a sharp reduction in Iiv- ing standards

 The AFL represents 50,000 WU employees over the nation, while New York area workers of the company are represented by the. American Communications Assn. (CIO). The VILE Arbitrator, Max Meyer, will continue to act in New York area cases, the WLB said, but he has been directed to suspend all proceedings elsewhere.
