 THE Ford Motor Company's in- sistence on following anti-union super-seniOrity theories, invalidated recently by the US. Supreme Court, will cost the company plenty when it comes to pay off its em- plOyes who lost earnings thru lay offs or demotions.
 A ruling by Prof. Harry Shul- man of Yale, Ford-UAW umpire, held that Ford must make up for financial losses suffered by its em- ployes affected by superseniority following a repudiated interpreta- ton of the law made by Selective Service Director Lewis Hershey in May, l944. The amount of money Ford workers will collect is expect ed to be the largest by far yet re- covered under the Supreme Court decision.

On the CapitoI's Cuff
ARE YOU INTERESTED?
By ALDEN TODD Federated Press

ARE YOU INTERESTED?
 The little red, white and blue card which almost every worker carries in his wallet stands for membership in an ll-year-old or ganizatiOn which now has 84,OOO,- 900 members and $7 billion in the till. The club is the Social Secur- ity Cardholders' Association.
 Washington spokesmen interested in social security legislation are saying that the 80th Congress will have to take the system out, hang it on the line and give it a good dusting off The war, congressional inertia and the failure of progressive forces to make a concerted drive to revise and extend the social security system have com bined to let it lag behind the times
 20 Million Not Covered
 Those minor changes in the act made at the end of the 7oth Congress came at time when major over hauling was long overdue.
 One of the most-needed improve. ments is extension of the old-age and survivors insurance system to workers not covered at present. Ar. thur J. Altmeyer, chairman of the Social Security board, told the House ways and means committee i'll February that the board favored extending protection to all people who are gainfulIy employed, in. cluding those working for them selves in their own businesses.
 Some of the groups excluded from protection now are agricultural work CTS, domestic workers, certain public workers and employees of nonproft in- stitutions. Altogether they are about 20,000,000, kept out of the social se- curity program because Il years ago it was considered too difficult to col lect the money from them to pay their share of the load.
 Many Hesitate
 Sec. of Commerce Henry Wallace pointed out to the committee in its
The union times., 1946-08-24

months of hearings on revising the act that many people capable of running small businesses on their own hesi- tate to go it alone because they would sacrifice their social security protec- tion.
 These people all get old and they all die sometime There is no just reason why they should not draw so- cial security checks when they retire from active work at 65-or why their widows and children should not be taken care of in case of death.
 Now the board itself asks Con- gress to bring them in, and the board is the one that has to keep the accounts and do the work.
 A board spokesman recently pointed out that there is an interesting dilem- ma now facing Congress on this point since 1t has just voted to give war veterans credit for having paid into the social security fund during their service. What will be done about the farm boy, for instance, who never had Ia social security account before the war? Congress gives him credit for his service years, but if he stays ir farm work he will lose it.
 Farm Vets Out
 Perhaps veterans in non-covered employment are the foot-in-the-door that will open it for millions of oth- CTS. They aren't going to take now you're-in, now-you're-out deal with out a squawk.
 Another improvement the act badly needs is a boost in the amount of benefits paid to retired workers and survivors of insured workers. At present, the minimum old-age payment is $lO month, or SIS for a worker and his wife if both are past 65 years of age. That amount might have bought a sec ond-hand suit in 1885 when the worker first started paying into the fund by his l per cent pay deduc- tions. Today it would hardly pay for pair of pants.
 Same Standard!
 The average monthly payment to over-65 couples at the end of 1945 was $3840 and the surviving widow with two children got $47.6O if her husband was fully insured at the time

 And if the old-age beneficiary takes in washing or does some odd jobs to make ends meet, the present law all lows him to earn no more than SIS a month and continue to draw his old age pension.
 Looking forward to the time you reach 65 and preparing for your own death are considerations usu- ally not uppermOst in most active peoples minds. But labor would do well to let candidates for Con- gress know, between now and Nov. 5, that it expects some constructive action on the social security act.

u. 5. Sector Of Berlin
Barracks for
Jews Who Fled Soviet
BY the Associated Press.


BERLIN, Jan. 12.-The American
Military Government today installed
500 Polish Jewish refugees, who have
inf1ltrated into the American sector
of Berlin, in a temporary camp and
rushed construction of two more
barracks in anticipation of caring
for perhaps $500 additional refugees.
The 500 were part of the 1000
Jews who moved out of the Rus
sian sector of the city when the
Russians sought to evacuate them
to the Soviet occupation zone.
Frankly anticipating that the en-
tire number and perhaps others
would apply for admission to the
new camp, the Americans imme =
diately started preparing additional
facilities.
Col. Frank Howley, director of
military government here, said the
Americans held to the view that
the refugees were not displaced
persons but Illegally entered per-
sons"
But we can't do anything but
take care of them temporarily until
policy is fixed on higher levels -
he added. For the present they
can't move westward and they re-
fuse to 60 back east"
Army trucks hauled the 500 ref
ugees from their old lodging in a
rickety pavilion to camp in the
Wannsee borough administered by
a team from the United Nations

Christian Group Says
Jews Provide Key 10
Middle East Progress
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The American Palestine Commit
tee claimed yesterday that the chief
opposition to establishment of a
Jewish national home stemmed
from those Arab forces which are
undemocratic, feudalistic and SYM
pathetic to the Nazi-Fascist cause in
World War H."
The contention of the organiza-
ton, which says it represents ap-
proximately 5000 Christian laymen,
together with the views of the
Christian Council on Palestine, were
presented by DR.. Daniel A. Polling
to the Anglo-American Commission
studying Jewish immigration into
Palestine.
Saying that establishment of a
Jewish state "is not only necessary
to the Jews, but just to the Arabs" !"
the American Palestine Committee
maintained that the Jews in the
Holy Land "have provided the ex-
ample, the stimulus and the indus
trial and scientific instrumentalities
for the emancipation of the entire
Middle East"
Best Hope For Prosecuted.
1t argued that maximum Jewish
immigration from Europe to Pales-
tine is "the best hope of meeting the
urgent need of those who have sur
vived the ordeal of Hitler's mass
murders"
The Christian Council on Pales-
tine, with a reported membership of
5000 Christian clergymen and full
time church workers urged:
/. THAT the gates of Palestine
should be forever open to Jewish
immigration so that all Jews who
need to, or wish to, should be per-
mitted to enter their ancestral
homeland as of right and not on
sufferance."
2. That all possible aid Of a
legal, moral and financial character
should be extended by the United
Nations to encourage the Jews to
develop the economic absorptive
capacity of the country to its max
imum"
No Political DISTINCTIONS.
3. That no political obstruction
be placed in the way of the Jews be-
coming majority of the population
of Palestine If they respond in suf-
ficient numbers and If the devel-
oped economic possibilities of Pal
estine permit"
Opposition, however, came from
the Rev. Charles T. Bridgeman of
Trinity Church, New York, ,swho told
the commission he had spent 20
years in Palestine representing the
American Episcopalian Church. He
cautioned against stirring up trou-
BILE between the Arabs and the
Jews"
only by strange use Of the
word democracy could it be right
for 100000 Jews outside Pales-
tine-where the vast majority Of
them prefer to remain-to impose
their will against the majority of
those inside Palestine" he said.
He condemned Jewish national
ism in Palestine as blatant and in
tolerant" and blamed the Jews there
for the Arab-Jewish disturbances.
