BY JAMES Y. NEWTON.

President Truman summoned
members of the War Labor
Board to the White House to-
day for discussion of a national
wage policy and the troubled
industrial relations situation.
1t was believed that the Presi-
dent asked the board to take a more
active part IL attempting to iron
out differences between labor and
management which have led to the
recent wave of strikes. Most of the
disputes have centered about labor
demand for 80 per cent higher
wages to compensate for loss of
overtime pay.
Press Secretary Charles G. Ross
said he thought some kind of an
announcement would be forthcom-
ing later today, although he doubted
that it would include any outline of
wage policy.
Thirteen public, labor and indus
try members of the WLB, led by
Acting Chairman Lloyd K. Garrison,
former University of Wisconsin law
dean. participated in the White
House conference. Also present were
Reconversion Director John W. Sny-
der and Secretary of Labor Schwel-
lenbach. The conference lasted for
40 minutes.
Admission of Mistake.
The meeting today was interpreted
as an admission on the part of
the administration that a mistake
was made by ordering liquidation
of WLB Immediately after the Japs
surrendered and before other ma
chinery for settling industrial dis
putes was set up.
The board voted unanimously re-
Gently to wind up it's business by the
end of the year. In doing so it was
following orders from Mr.. Snyder
and Mr.. Schwellenbach.
Mr.. Schwellenbach and other TOP
officials. however, have felt the need
the past two weeks for some agency
which could set Government policy
on labor's wage demands, particu-
larly where wage increases neces-
STATED higher prices.
Pattern Is Sought.
Mr.. Schwellenbach has stated that
he would like to send through Fed
eral stabilization machinery enough
cases involving union demands for
80 per cent higher pay to set a
pattern for future Government &C
ton. In that way he hoped to OBJ
tain a new pay yardstick and min
irnize strikes.
Most WLB members, however
feel that the board has gone so fan
in the liquidation process that il
does not have sufficient standing
with either labor or management
to make it's decisions stick.
Since the Japanese surrender
August IA, the board has handled
only disputes where both sides agreed
to accept its decisions.
Opposition to any move to reviv,
the board would be strong particu,
larly from AFL members who lee
the fight for liquidation within thu
board. The CIO has favored con,
tinuance of WLB's wartime opera
tions.
If the board is to be revitalizet
to handle wage policy cases. public
members believe Mr.. Truman viii
have to give 1t "a real shot in tn,
arm" perhaps in the form Of nev
executive order to increase its stat,
ure. WLB now is merely dyin,
| part of the Labor Department.
Meanwhile, Lewis G. Hines, repre-
senting AFL President William
Green, told the House Labor Com
mittee the Government should no
attempt to regulate wages abov
a specific minimum.

Some Are Now Claimed
BY France, Australia
And Great Britain

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1s- B -
Outright retention by the United
States of a group of Pacific is
lands, including some now claimed
by France. Australia and Great
Britain, was recommended today
by House Naval Subcommittee.
They must be kept as Naval and
Military bases if the United States
is to assume responsibility for
keeping peace in the Pacific, the
committee asserted in a report
made public by Chairman Vinson
D.-Ga).
The report, 300 pages long, was
based ON a 21,000-mile inspection
trip made by a subcommittee COM
posed of representatives lac Co.
Calif.), Biemiller O.-Wis.), Bishop
R.-Ill), and Delegate Harrington
(R.- Hawaii).
1t did not suggest how this ma
ton should 60 about obtaining title
to islands claimed by friendly ma
tons, but emphasized that it is es-
sential that the United States have
free and unrestrained access to
them. :,
Specifically, the committee REQ
commended that:
/. For our own security, the Sc
curity of the western hemisphere,
and the peace Of the Pacific, the
United States should have at least
dominating control over the former
Japanese inundated islands of the
Marshalls, the Carolines, and the
Marianas - commonly known as
Micronesia"-and over the outlying
Japanese islands of the Izus, Bon.
ms, and Ryukus.
2. The United States should be
given specific and substantial
rights to the sites where American
bases have been constructed on is
land territories of Allied nations.
3. With respect to Manus, Nou-
mea, Espiritu Santo, Guadalcanal
and other sites of American bases
on islands inundated to, or claimed
by, other nations, full title to those
bases should be given to the United
States because these ether nations
are not capable of defending such
islands and "as these bases are

SOUTHEAST FACING
BIG JOB PROBLEM

ATLANTA, Ga, Aug. 18.-W.D-
With its warplants, shipyards, and
military posts closing almost faster
than they can be tabulated, the SIX
southeastern states will be confront
ed by a terrific unemployment
problem during the next IL months,
the War Manpower Commission
warned today.
Even so, the VINO does not ex-
pect the total unemployment figure
to be as high as it was in the years
before our national defense pro-
gram. It will be the contrast with
the war years that will make the
situation appear more serious.
billiard B. Lasseter, Regional
VINO Director, in an interview with
| United Press, revealed the first de-
tailed overall picture on what the
impact of reconversion will mean
in the Southland.
His report came as he announced
that some $4,000 workers had al
ready been released from warplants
in Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Ten
nessee and Mississippi with victory
in Europe.
Lasseter estimated that some
43O, 900 workers, including 100000
actual war manufa curing employees
and 100, 900 civilian workers at air.
fields, training camps and govern
ment war plants would be discharg-
ed during the next six months.
And while reconversion is closing
war plants, Lasseter said. it is esti-
mated that war veterans, also in
search of work, will return to the
southeast at the rate of about $780,
900 a year. This brings the total
number of potential workers to L.
230, 900.
1--WE do not want to minimize the
problems ahead for the next year"
the VINO director observed. He
said. for example, that at times as
many as 100000 persons may be
out OF work at once while industry
is being reconverted, new plants
built and while workers are shift
ting. 1t is estimated, he said, that
at least 10000 families will be
forced to move from one area to
another. This does not include the
movement of soldiers and their
families.
Lasseter said that approximately
60, 900 persons would be re-employ-
ed during the peacetime expan-
sion of industry in Georgia, Florida,
Alabama, Tennessee, Florida and
South Carolina. In addition, agri-
culture, service industries, retail
and wholesale trade and mining
will hire another 100000.

cannot permit any link to be in
the hands o. those who will not or
cannot defend it."
4. The United States must not
permit its Pacific bases to lapse
back into a state of unprepared-
ness. as in the instances of Guam
and Wake, prior to the present war.
Main fleet bases, the comm tee
added, should be maintained at
Pearl Harbor, Guam and Saipan in
the Marianas, Iloilo in the Philip
pines, Manus in the Admiralties,
and Noumea in New Caledonia.
Secondary bases, it said, should
be ma 'ntained in the Midway Is
lands, at Okinawa, at Subic Bay
in the Philippines, and in the Palau
Islands, with fleet anchorages at
Majuro, Kwajalein, and Eniwetok
in the Marshalls, at Truk in the
Palau islands, and at Espiritu San
to in the New Hebrides.
The committee urged retention
in operational condition of all land
plane bases now under Allied con-
troll; development of Mactan island,
in the Philippines, as main naval
air base; and maintenance of land
plane and sea plane bases at Prer-
to Princesa, TaWi Tawi and GUM.

News Freedom Reality
In Fourteen Countries

LONDON, Aug. 18.-tR-Freedom
of distribution and publication OF
news has become a reality il at
least IA nations, and in about 10
others censorship likely will be
abolished shortly now that the war
ended, a world survey by the AS
sociated Press disclosed today.
The United States is the only one
of the five major powers which
has lifted entirely restrictions on
press and radio. Britain and
France plan to follow suit shortly.
China also is considering censor
ship relaxation after a transition
period from war to peace.
There has been no indication that
Soviet censorship will be altered.
The same is true of Finland, Ru-
