After 65 a worker is apt to be sick
more than before. Obviously, when he
is sick, he is not earning; so his aver
age monthly wage goes down. After 65
worker is apt 10 work for less pay on
the same job. or be shifted to JOB at
lower wages. This again reduces his
average monthly wage He Is apt TO
lose his job altogether and be unem-
ployed for longer or shorter periods Of
time. He is apt to shift over from time
to time into non-coyered work, where
the wages do not count towards old-age
and survivors insurance benefits Yet
the months of unemployment and the
months in nOn-covered work are all
added in and work TO reduce the average
monthly wage.
For any of these reasons IL may be
wise for the fully insured worker to
file his claim for benefits as soon as
he reaches 65. This, Of course, does not
mean that he has to retire He can
keep on working and he will receive
benefits for any month in which he
notifies the board that his wages in
covered Jobs are below SIS If he con-
tinues to work steadily after filing his
claim, he may be able to raise his bene-
fit amount by filing a request for re
computation at a later date However.
if a worker after S. continues to work
steadily at pay which is as high as or
higher than, his past average under So
cial security, there is no advantage in
his filing a claim Immediately. On the
other hand it is generally to his advan-
tage to file his claim if his pay begins
to drop. or if ne begins losing time on
covered jobs. or if he works in non
covered employment. The officials at
any office OF the Social Security Board
will be glad to talk every individuals
circumstances over with him and to
advise him on this question There is
no charge for this service.
To safeguard his family each worker
should tell his wife, children, or other
near relatives to contact the nearest

are some important matters he should

TRANSPORTATION
BREAKDOWN
IS THREATENED
BY PAT C. SULLIVAN

Transportation of passengers and
freight by the railways, the bus lines and
the trucking companies Of the country
is above the peak and unless something
like miracle is performed in the very
near future a breakdown OF our trans
portation system is bound to occur, and
if such a thing should happen, the war
with Japan might last much longer than
it should.
The railroads are in bad shape physic-
ally. They are short OF manpower, short
of equipment and the roadbeds are not in
near as good shape as they should be.
but despite all these handicaps the rail-
roads are doing mighty fine job. and
one that every railroader should be
proud Of,
I am not a transportation expert, in
fact I know very little about it. but
have an idea that 7 know would in a
very small way relieve the situation
My idea deals with the transportation

contend is a terrible waste of cars and
manpower. as each community should be
supplied by its closest brewery.
OF course this would work somewhat

nothing compared to the hardships and
deprivations our armed forces would be
forced to endure if our transportation
system suffers a breakdown and this war

do not think it would be necessary
to enact any new laws to change the
system of distributing beer, as believe
the ODT has full authority to make
whatever changes in our transportation
system that are necessary TO further
the war effort.
Every time our country is in danger.
we start boasting of our DEMOCRACY;
well let's for once forget our NfPERL-
ALISM and give our boys the support of
real democracy. and not become too
much engrossed with dividends.
Let all of US, citizens OF what CAN

Principal Changes

Principal Changes
The bill rewrites the closed shop pro
yiso in the Wagner Labor Relations Act
so as to make the closed shop illegal
if the new Tribunal finds the union in
volved does not meet four fixed require
ments:
l. The union must be chosen by T5a6
OF the workers involved.
2. The union contract must be rau-
fled by 500 of the workers covered.
3. Membership in the union must be
open to all qualified persons,
4. The union must provide for writ
ten charges and a hearing before ex-
pelling any member
1t also rewrites the Wagner acts con-
struction Of unfair labor practices so as
to make it possible for the worker or a
union to be convicted of an unfair labor
practice against an employer. This is
another concession to the enemies of
labor who contendes that the Wagner
act is unfair to bosses
Among other things it makes dis
elimination against an employer" fed
eral offense, and the word employer"
is broadened to mean any person acting
in the interest of an employer, directly
or indirectly" That could include sub
foremen and straw bosses. 1t also sets
out that neither union nor a worker
can interfere with the functioning Of
an employers management function by
interrupting, disorganizing or delaying
the performance of work by employees in
order to compel the immediate adjust
ment of alleged grievances, or to compel
other managerial actions, or to prevent
the enforcement Of managerial directions
or policies, or otherwise hamper or en-
barrass an employer" It does give the
workers the right to make suggestions"
to the management.
Arbitration Is Compulsory
Compulsory arbitration is provided for
all grievances under union contracts and
the bill also says that if the Tribunal
believes a strike would result in severe
hardship to the public, such as in public
utilities, delivery Of milk etc. arbitration
would be before a special fact-finding
commission named by the President. It's
decision would be enforceable in federal
courts.
Federal Courts TO Hear Cases
Both the Tribunal and the new FLRB
could be sued in the civil courts by either
employer or the unions. The Board is
empowered to sue in the U. S. District
Courts to restrain violation or threat
ened violation of its orders Likewise
any person suffering loss by reason Of
violation of the orders under the new
act can sue for restitution, reparation or
relief
COverage
The new Boards jurisdiction is much
narrower than that Of the NLRB. Dis
putes involving less than 20 workers, Or
those engaged in local distribution (de-
partment stores and agricultural work
ers as well as workers covered by the
Railway Labor Act are eliminated from
its jurisdiction.

Hatch said that we have an elaborate
system of courts to enforce all varities
of contracts except labor contracts.
There is no good reason for not making
labor contracts legally enforceable.
IF the U. S. is to aid in the preser-
walton of international peace, if the U. S.
is to reconvert its industries from mill
tary to civilian production, if the U. S.
is to avoid vast unemployment and a
devastating depression in the next few
years, it is the imperative obligation of
managers and workers in every major
industry to use every reasonable effort
to maintain peaceful and just labor re-
lations and to settle their differences by
negotiation, or through arbitration, with
out resort to coercive measures and stop
pages of production by any party" Hatch

Theodore w. Noyes, editor of The
Star and the sole surviving member
Of the original Cathedral board of
trustees. appointed more than half
a century ago.
In making the presenta ton, Mr..
Noyes wrote to Dean Suter: About
one year ago l availed myself of
an opportunity to purchase a
historic and beautiful robe and
accessories which had been made
for and used by the Priest of the
Russian Orthodox Church of the
Holy Sepulchre at Jerusalem My
understanding that these articles
we're much admired by my friend,
the late Bishop James E. Freeman,
who had desired their acquisition
for place in the ecclesiastical COL
lection being assembled at the
Cathedral, Influenced largely my
purchase. On May /, 1914, the robe
and accessories were left by my
representative with Canon Theodore
o. Wedel for safekeeping in the
College of Preachers, where they
were to be held until a more formal
transfer of ownership should be
made.
Therefore. 1t now is my privilege
to present and transfer to WASH
ington Cathedral all of my right.

Meat Packers, Aided
By Subsidies, Expect
More Beef by August

| The Governments new meat sub
sides should mean more and bet
ter beef for housewives by August,
a spokesman for meat packers said
yesterday. but he added 1t will be
Christmas before pork supplies in
crease much.
Wilbur LaRoe, jr., counsel for
the National Independent Meat
Packers Association. told reporters
this Is the industry's estimate. In
announcing the subsidies, War Mo-
bilization Director Vinson said lit
will take some time for the effects
of the program to be felt"
Meanwhile, the OPA made a new
move against black markets. The
agency ruled against slaughtering
quotas for any non-Federally in
spected meat packers who, in three
monthly accounting periods since
January !. 1914. did not surrender
any ration points.
Would Close Businesses.
In effect, this would close any
such violator out of business.
This action was taken because
these slaughterers have demon
strated serious disregard of the ra-
tioning system OPA said. Whether
the failure to pay points resulted
from carelessness or deliberation
these persons have indicated they
are not sufficiently trustworthy to
be permitted to continue to operate
as a channel of distribution of
scarce rationed foods
Generally. Congress members who
have been critical of the OPA said
the new subsidies will help but do
not meet all their complaints against
the meat price control structure.
Chairman Anderson of the House
Food Investigating Committee called
the order "a move In the right di-
rection" which would be helpful on
beef but expressed disappointment
that it did not establish a $3.50
support price on all weights of hogs
Hogs over 800 pounds are not now
under support prices.
Other comments made 1t evident
that the program had not headed oil
a fight to amend the Price Control
Act as some administration support
ers had hoped 1t would.
Says Basic Situation Unclaimed.
1T has not changed the basic
situation" Senator Taft. Republi-
can, Of Ohio remarked. He said he
intended to press his amendment
proposing substantial liberaliza-
tion of the price policy" after the
end of this year. This would allow
businesses the same margin above
cost after January / that they had
on the average in the years 1898,
1899 and 1910.
Senator Hickenlooper, Republican.
Of Iowa also said he thought there
was nothing in the order that will
change the attitude Of a great many
members Of Congress that amend
ments ought to be made in the
law"
Senators Taft and Hickelooper are
members of Senate Banking Sub
committee which now. has legislation
to extend the Price Control Act un-
changed for a year beyond its pres
ent expiration date Of June 80.
Mr.. La Roe said the independent
meat packers would continue to
press for adoption of the amend
ment introduced by Senator Nickel
lar, Democrat. Of Tennessee. This
would direct that OPA allow "a gen.
orally fair and equitable margin" on
processing of each type Of livestock.
