WLB To Approve
Wage Increases

Washington, d. C. (ILNS). = Tht
War Labor Board has finally recog.
nized the elementary truth that the
way TO increase the labor supply OF
low wage foundries is to raise pay
The board has announced it will
approve or order up to 10 cents ar
hour wage raises above minimum
bracket rates in foundries certified as
requiring such action. The certifica-
tions must be made by the War Pro-
duction Board or the War Manpowel
Commission.
The WLB said that it's decision fol
lowed an investigation made at the
request of the WPB, VINO and armed
services, "to assist in solving seri-
Gus production problem in many foun-
dries and forge shops producing cast
ings and forgings" for tanks, air.
planes, artillery and other war sup
plies.
1t said that the manpower shortage
was concentrated in the common la
Dor and semi skilled occupations,
hence certifcations would be directed
to the higher paid classifications "only
in very exceptional cases."
Common labor in many foundries
has starting rate of so cents an
hour.

this is fine move and urge all men,

their benches clean and to aid the

also brought out the fact that the
work was not divided equally and all
members are requested to demand
from their foreman an equal division.

the trade.
At the beginning of the war the

ute, but it seems only few received

they were forgotten. They wonder if
their service. was not appreciated.

Three thousand of the soldiers -
former machinists, tool makers, forg-
ing press and drop hammer operators
and electricians-will go to rs ammu-

Twelve hundred are to go to 80
tire plants. Five hundred will report
to rs mills making cotton duck for
tents and tarpauins.
Output Behind Consumption
Although production has increased,
consumption is still going up faster
than output, the Army said, and the
furloughing of soldiers is a tempor-
ary emergency measure. AS rapidly
as civilian workers come forward 20
fill the jobs, the men will be returned
to military duty, the War Department
reported.
The. latest furloughing of soldiers
for war production follows release
from active military service of LOCO
men who had worked in foundries or
forge shops.
Early in March, 1943, President
Green of the AFL protested to Con-
gress against "any unreasonable plan
to strip industry of skilled workers to
build up an excessively large Army
AFL Warning Proved Sound
Warning that production decreases
would be fatal, Green declared:
"The efficiency of war industries is
bound to suffer !. by the removal of
large numbers of skilled workers.
Since the AFL protest, nearly two
years ago, the Army has been fre-
quently forced to release or furlough
skilled men for war industries. Men
have been sent back to civilian life
for work in copper mines, mems gar
ment factories, logging, farming and
other industries essential to conduct
of the war.

Outlines Job Bill
Wallace predicted that one of the
first pieces of legislation to be intro
duced in the present Congress will be
a ''fnll employment BILL" based on
studies made by James Patton, presi-
dent of the National Farmers Union
and presented by Senator Murray of
Montana.
Under it, the President would SUD-
nit not only a budget of proposed
governmental expenditures but "a
national budget as WE'LL" The latter
would deal with total investment and
expenditure by all groups - consum-
ers, business, and local, state and
federal governments. An attempt
would be made to calculate the ex-
penditures needed to assure full en-
ployment, and, on the other hand, the
prospective actual expenditures.
If the estimated expenditures were
less than the amount needed to guar
antee full employment, the govern
ment first would be directed to take
steps to encourage greater private
employment. If that failed, it would
step in with spending program in
tended to make up the difference.
Would Fix Responsibility
Wallace said that under the bill
"there would inevitably be basic dis
agreements between various political
groups as to how much emphasis
should be put upon measures to stim-
ulate private enterprise and how
much emphasis upon direct federal
investment. i.
"Under the bill, however, if the
wrong policies are adopted, it would
be infinitely easier for the average
man or the average woman to point
her finger at the political leader or
political group responsible for those
policies"

GREAT deal of good-and maybe an untold
- measure of harm for mankind-can be the
y result of the recent recovery from Arctic
ice beds of germs that have continued TO live in
a frozen state for at least 5000 years, perhaps
even as long as 10000
The famed Russian discovercr of these micro
scOpic organisms, Prof. p n Kapterev, would be
among the first to admit that when he dug up
and revived those ancient bacteria he opened
true scientific Pandora's box.
Just the curious Pandora, first woman TO
be sent down TO earth by the gods, according TO
Greek legend, couldn't refrain from opening the
forbidden box she carried with her Prof kap-
terev's querying mind kept egging him on TO ind
out what lay buried in the superCold depths.
The inquisitive woman was filled with horror
at what she'd done when she lifted the lid and
body; envy spite and hate to invade his mind.
But hope still remained in the box.
