Harry Bennett, Head Of Ford's Thugs, Resigns
Personnel Boss Had Unsav- ory History In Strike
 Breaking Field

DEARBORN, Mioh.-(FP)- On the same day that Robert Loy, head of Hitler's labor front in Germany hanged himself in a prison cell, Harry Bennett, former head of Henry Ford's labor front in the Ford Motor Co.,, cut his last tie with the company by resigning from the board of directors. He had been previously fired as director in charge of admin istration' a few weeks earlier when Henry Ford II succeeded old Henry as company president.
 Bennett and two cronies have formed a firm of manufacturers representatives, something like the job that was found for Homer Mar tin, traitOr-president of the United Auto Workers, after he got his walking papers from union affairs.
 Under Bennett the notorious corps of Ford serWcemen was formed, con- sisting in part of ex-convicts, plug uglies, deposed police officers from various towns, etc. They were sting ingly denounced in government re- ports made to the Natl. Labor Rela- tions Board and were let go when the JAW strike in 1941 brought Ford into the union column.

This Agreement. Calls For Some Fancy Figuring
Workers Out a Week Try ing To Fathom Its
 Meaning

RAILWAY, N. J.-(FP)-The union contract calls for time and a half for the sixth and seventh days work at the Marck & Co. chemical plant here, but the mathematicians in the front office have never let con- tract stand in their way.
 The company last week an- nounced, without consulting its em- ployes, a plan whereby they would work seven consecutive days with out overtime payment-except for one day every four weeks. The trick is done by working seven, lay ing off two, so that no more than five days are worked in a calendar week, except every fourth week, when there is a sixth day worked in a calendar week.
 A week has passed and the plant is still down.

as managers of corporation farms sweat their hired help. Because of this, operators of family-type farms may be called higher cost or marginal producers. Low prices and shrinking profits drive them to borrow more and more; they are unable to meet the payments on their notes; finally they are forced to sell out to the big Oper- ators, or the bank or insurance compay takes over.

Our failure to assure provision of new homes to low-in- come families as we'll as continued neglect of the housing needs of families of moderate income can only spell disaster and unemploy- ment.

i'll the United States. According to official figures from the State Labor Department, war workers in Connec- ticut averaged $50 a week in wages, before taxes. We were the first labor organization in the United States to sign a no-strike agreement, and our war production record will tell you whether or not we lived up to the agreement
 T mention these facts because you will not find them in your daily news paper, or hear them over the radio Just as many people have. the i'm pression that the so-called farm bloc in Congress is out to get everything for itself, and the rest of the nation can go hang, so do many people have the wrong impression about organized labor.

COUNCIL STATEMENT

COUNCIL STATEMENT
 Adoption of postwar housing legislation advocated by the Ameri- can Federation of Labor is a mat ter of utmost national urgency and can no longer be deferred.
 ''The executive council appeals to Congress to consider immediate ly and enact promptly a compre- hensive national housing policy to- gether with a set of unified long, range programs essential to carry out such policy.
 Homeless American families will soon be reality in thousands of communities while dangerous over crowding will become widespread un- less Congress recognizes the nations need and acts to meet them.
 VETS NEED HOMES
 "Over 100000 married veterans are already in immediate need of homes. More than 1,500,000 return ing veterans are expected to establish new homes within the next year but will find no place to set up new households. Americas housing need was extremely acute before the war. During the war years 27,000,000 per sons took part in the vast shifts of population set off by war conditions.
 ''As the result of this migration. the already critical need in many communities has been greatly in- tensified. This pressing and contin- ually growing need cannot be met overnight. Only long-range plan- ming designed to achieve clearly and cOurageOusly stated housing objectives for the entire nation will suffice to assure better homes and better living conditions for all Americans in cities and on the farms.
 LOW INCOME GROUPS
 "The American Federation of La bor has always advocated the adop- ton of a comprehensive housing bill which will enable each community. through it's own local initiative and with the fullest exercise of local re- sponslblllty, to reach the postwar housing objectives as rapidly as the great wealth and resources of post war America will make possible.
 'The most essential principle on which the entire program must rest is the necessity to bring new and better housing within the

the responsibility of collecting de-
llnquent accounts turned over by

ernment hospitals. One case is now
pending before the Justice Depart

ONCE again the folks who feed the nation are harvest
ing one of the great crops of our history and the
record breaking harvest of these years has been pro-
duced by fewer people maintaining top production on
more and more acres.
The progress that has been made IN agriculture IN recent
wears is almost unbeievablecorn yields of well over 100
bushels an acre. rarity few years ago, now common;
the production of toners of hogs less than months
after farrowng is great problem now; hens that lay
more than 200 eggs year not hard to nd and there
are dairy COWS with records of well 5000 pounds OF
milk and 900 pounds of butterfat annually.
All of these advances in the production of food have
played important part in the building OF America TO It's
present greatness and to victory in the war.
Back in the days of George Washington, farm family
was able to produce enough food for itself and one other
family Today each farm family IN America can produce
it's own food and enough for 10 other families This tells the
story of the American harvest And it is story unique in
world history.
We at Swift Company salute our farmer and rancher
friends for their great achievements and proud to
have had part in the preparation and distribution OF the
fruits of the harvest to Americans everywhere.

Even splendid feeds like corn and oil meals are
short of carotene 1t is also lacking in corn and sor-
ghum fodder, straw, discolored hay and off grade
silage. Unfortunately, all too much hay and silage
is of this kind. So, even though your animals get
their fill of corn and oil meal they may develop caro-
tene deficiency symptoms which will retard full
growth and development unless sufficient leafy
roughages are fed.

United States is divided into ten zones for
beef, lamb and veal and five for pork. Each
has its own base price for each kind of meat.
Additions to the base price are allowed for
transportation and local delivery. These al
lowances are the very minimum and in many
instances do not cover the actual cost of trans
portation, icing, and shrinkage.
Consequently, meat packers are better off
when they sell close to their producing plants.
In general, the net money they receive is
greater the closer to the plant the sale is made.
But despite this, Swift & Company has volun-
tarily adhered to its wartime policy of fair dis
tribution. Starting in July 1945, all meat
packers were required by OPA regulations to
distribute their meats to the same areas they
did the first three months of 1914.
