SAYS BLOOD BASERALL IN
 CLOSE TOUCH
By FRANK ECK AP NeiUSfeatnres Sports Writer

 NEW YORK - Blood and base ball are related. Take the word of Walter L. Red) Barber, general chairman of the Red Cross 1945 War Fund of Greater New York.
 Red goes back three years. It was the opening game of the 1922 ma jor league season. A call came into Ebbets Field.
 The caller asked Barber if he would put few words across the air waves The Red Cross needed 1C0 blood donors.
 Red obliged and the Red Cross was sWamped with volunteers.
 The popular or redhead says base ball had a lot to do with getting the necessary blood plasma to wounded ssrvicemen
 After all," stressed Red, you must remember that those people who volunteered to give their blood to the Red Crcss the opening day Ol JIlC lSf1 StdoCii WCAO eluiC0 AieO baseball game. And that game Started the ball arollin' for much needed blood plasma."
 Red recalls the day soon after Pearl Harbor that he and another redhead, Larry MacPhail, his form CT Brooklyn boss, were riding home in a taxicab They talked about a Red Cross blood donor night game
 Tie redheaded pair called the Red Cross and the latter contacted Sam Kurtz, torpedoman 1ic from Erie, Pa. Sam Kurtz may be just another name to some, but not to those who have heard him tell about plasma.
 Remember the Red Cross 1943 na- ticnal poster? It was blue with a red cross and showed a wounded ssrviceman appealing for help. On it were these words:
 "Red Gross Is AlUays At His
 Ssdc".
 Sam Kurtz authored those words. He knows what blood plasma means.
 It saved Sam's life after he was wounded aboard the USS Kearny. The destroyer had been torpedoed $50 miles southwest of Iceland a short time before Pearl Harbor Sam lest both legs.
 Well, when Ebbets Field had it's Red Cross night in 1942, they wheel ed Sam out to home plate. He was legless, but full of life and he told how plasrna and the Red Cross had saved his life.
 "A plane flew the plasma out to sea while the Kearny was making for port under her own power" said Sam
 We saw Sam year later Though he used two canes and walked bit on the unsteady side his steps were sure and you never would surmise that he had two artificial limbs.
 Since the first wartime baseball season of 1942, the Red Cross has delivered II million pints of plasma to our fighting men. Over five mil lien pints were distributed last year. How much plasrna can be accredited to baseball never will be known. But the fact remains that baseball help- ' ed.
 Last year when New York was called upon to raise $22,386,000 or II per cent of the nations Red Cross total, the local sports committee, representing all branches of compe- tition, raised $1 ,054,000.
 The all-St. Louis World Series of last fall also helped. A check for $185,093 has just been presented to the national Red Cross.
 Colby M. Chester, national com mittee c h a firm a n, says baseball participated substantially in the 1914 drive
 Baseball will do it's part again this year.
 Wonder how Washington feels about baseball this evening.

 The refusal of the Wage Adjust ment Board to approve paid vaca- tiOns for Painters Union, No. I86, was reported by Business Agent Saul Kreas. Kreas pointed out that the employers had unanimously signed contracts agreeing to paid vacations, and said that organized labor was at loss to understand why the agreement had been dis approved, and was at a greater loss to know why the labor members of the Board had voted against the union.
 The Council unanimously voted to protest the decision to the Wage Ad- JuStment Board, and to ask the Conn. Federation of Labor executive board to take a similar stand.
 Upon motion of Joseph Egan, Typographical Union, the Council voted to meet only on the first Thurs day of July and August.

MCWon'tHandLe SlUeatshop Labor

The War Manpower Commis- sion this week washed its hands Of responsibility of recruiting workers in plants paying sweat shop wages, even though such factories may have an Cur gency" rating in the war effort.
 This decision applies partic- ularly to the textile and paper container industries, which have been notorious for low pay, and bad working conditions, the W. M. C. declared in instruc- tiOns sent out to its regional di- rectOrs.
 Such plants will have to pay at least 50 cents an hour and in many instances 5 cents, if they are to get any special help in mobilizing needed workers, the W. M. C. made it clear. The same rule will be observed where objectionable conditions prevail.
 ''It is not the intent of the W. M. C. to underwrite poor per- sOnnel practices in these and similar industries, the cOmmis- sion stressed.

 Healthy Society-McNutt

NEW YORK CITY Maintaining that "fu1l employment is the difference between a healthy society and an ail- ing society open to the virus of new fascism and a new war" Paul W McNutt, Federal Security Adminis- trator and chairman of the War Manpower Commission, declared that there is a definite hope for a 60,000,- 000-job America in the postwar period.
 MT. McNutt said all Americans must be protected against unemploy- ment as they are protected against robbery, fire and violence at home. He said that protection against un- employment lis a double protection that will also guard our society against such psychological phobias as Jew-baiting, Negro-baiting and fascism."

 ''4. The employers themselves recognize the justice of our demand for a vacation and have approved the same, as set up in the contract entered into with them, copies of which have been forwarded to you.'
 McCOVERN'S LETTER
 Two important points were made by McGovern in his letters to Wash ington He pointed out that the labor representatives on the Wage Adjust ment Board had voted against paid vacations for the building trades, al though the employers had agreed to them.
 "The action of the Labor Represen- tatives disturbs us most" McGovern wrote. We think we are entitled to know why they acted as they did and we think we have the right to expect an explanation.
 We are of the opinion that the Wage Adjustment Board was not set up to judge customs, or what is or is not practical, especially when the Painters Union have signed agree ment with the employers. Further more, the decision sets a precedent that workers in the Building and Con- struction industry are not entitled to paid vacations"
 We assume" McGovern's letter concludes, that a Building Trades worker is a human being, as much as a worker in any other industry. We also think that your decision is not in line with the policy of the War Labor Board, which favors paid va cations. Therefore. we join the New Haven Painters Union in their re- quest that you reconsider your de- cision."

New Haven Groups Hold Joint Session

Cooperation between repre- sentatives of organized labor and the New Haven Council of Social Agencies in planning
 how health and welfare ser
 vices of public and private agencies can best meet the needs of workers, and the dis
 seminatiOn of information about these services among
 members of organized labor, are the objectives of the newly
 organized Labor Participation Committee of the Council of
 Social Agencies as outlined at meeting of AFL and CIO representatives with agency executives and members of
 the Council of Social Agen- cies' staff last week in l65 Elm Street.
 WELFARE OF WORKERS Pointing out that the concern of the Labor Participation Committee is the welfare of the workers, and their intelligent use of public and private agencies services, Max Livingston, committee chairman and president of the Council of ] Social Agencies, announced that the committee has arranged to hold
 another melting on July 10 at which time a number of leaders of or ganized labor in the community, in addition to those already serving on the committee, will be invited to participate in a discussion of ways in which information about serv-
 ices can be spread effectively among
 the workers.
 MT. Livingston said that at the July 10 meeting, the social planning activities of the Council of Social Agencies, representing 76 public and
 private agencies, will also be out B lined; the services of one or two of the agencies will be explained in de- tail; and the union programs will be described. As labor representatives I become more thoroughly acquainted with the social welfare activities of the community, the committee hopes that more active labor participation k on the boards and committees of the Council will develop.
 s'The interest that organized la- Dor groups are taking in services of benefit to workers in particular !. and to the community in general ! is highly commendable," Mir. Liv- ingstOn stated. eve in the Council of Social Agencies feel that our N program will be strengthened by | the advice of these groups which are in close contact with the needs ' of a large number of workers, and also by the broader understanding 4 of agency services which we hope ! will result through the attempts of
 the committee to disseminate infOr-
 nation among union members"
 It was revealed at the recent meeting of the Labor Participation \ Committee that many other conn., munities throughout the country
 are developing programs along this
 line.
