Dor and progressive group s,
spearheaded by the Committee
for Racial Democracy in the ma
tons Capital, were last week
mobilizing support for the re-
port of the Committee on Racial
Relations of the Council of So

.cIO Bans Negro
Council Support

WASHINGTON, Dec. "a -
LPA) - The national CIO last
week cracked down on the Los
Angeles Industrial Union Coun-
Gil for soliciting memberships
and funds for the Natl Negro
Congress, an organization fire.
quently charged with being
Communist dominated.
In letter to Secretary
treasurer Philip M. Connolly, of
the Los Angeles IUC, John Bro
ply, director of industrial union
councils, pointed out that last
months CIO executive board
meeting enacted new rules gov
erning the activities of indus
trial union councils in regard to
organizations not endorsed by
the CIO.
Noting that the national CIO
had never endorsed the national
Negro Congress, Brophy told
Connolly that the Natl CIO
Committee to Abolish Discrimi-
nation advises me that the
stated program and activities of
the Natl Negro Congress are
largely a duplication of the
work of the Natl Association for
the Advancement of Colored
People and that from time to
time the policies of the Natl
Negro Congress are at variance
with an in opposition to the
policies of the CIO. The organi-
zation with which we work
very closely and successfully is
the NAACP, on whose execu-
tive board is President Philip
Murray"
Brophy concluded, II must
ask that the Los Angeles Indus
trial Union Council discontinue
forthwith all fund raising, mem
bership solicitation and other
work in support of the Natl
Negro Congress, and that in ad-
dition, the position of the ma
tional CIO be made clear with
regard to this matter in he Los
Angeles area"
The Brophy letter was later
sent to all industrial union
councils throughout the country
with the added statement that
Under the new rules, viola
tions of CIO policy in this re-
spect subject any council or any
officer thereof to proceedings in
stituted by the president of the
ECIO."

Eisenhower Seen
New Leader

NEW YORK Dec. "a (LPA)-
General ike" Eisenhower was
cited for the first time by CIO
leader as a possible national
leader in an address by Presi-
dent Jacob S. Potofsky, of the
Amalgamated Clothing Workers
CIO here last week.
Potofsky, in a speech to labor
leaders and other prominent in
labor research, technical and
educational fields, declared: Eve
are convinced that the times,
calling for great men, will put
forth an inspiring national lead
er, around whom all progressive
forces can rally.
Men are emerging like Gen.
Ike Eisenhower and Governor
Arnall, of Georgia; Henry
Wallace and Sentor Claude, Pep
per, ana 1t is not Wlshful thing
ing to expect that even a Re-
publican like the late Wendell
Willkie will appear on the poll
tical horizon Men like these,
with programs devoted to peace,
employment, and security, will
win the support of all progress
sive elements"
Denying that the Republican
election sweep last month was
a drastic setback for labor,
Potofsky contended that "The
political wiseacres have delib-
erately misinterpreted the facts.
The confusion and uncertainty
that have existed since the death
of Franklin D. Roosevelt will be
clarified by clear-thinking, pro-
gressive leadership on the poll
teal front, and labor and the
nation will 60 on to even greater
gains than those registered under
the New Deal"

Ldbor Not TO Blame

Pay Is Up l31c
Profits Soar 5000

WASHINGTON, Dec. "a -
(LPA) - Daily press reports
last week citing increases in
weekly earnings in manufactur-
ing industries concealed %
huge price rises that nullified
these gains, and (2) enormous
corporation profit reports rang
ing up to 500To increases.
Weekly earnings in manufac-
turing rose to $45.10 in Sep
tember, more than 81 above a
year ago, according to the Bu-
reau of Labor Statistics, and
amounting to a 131sc hourly in
crease over the year.
Food and other prices, have
continued upward with the
trend still unchecked. Another
huge jump in living costs is an
ticipated if the new Republican
Congress decontrols rents as its
leaders say they intend to do. A
consecutive estimate by labor
economists last week predicted
a 21% increase in living costs
over VJ-Day Dec. 21.
Profits Show Jumps
Accompanying the booming
prices has been an almost un-
broken profit spree. New cor
porate returns last week showed
the following:
Reynolds Metals Co., a net
profit of $3,302,114 for the
third quarter of this year com.
pared with $118,301 for the

Kane, Corvallis, Ore, bounced back
last month from the low blow dealt
them at the hands of the north
country's greatest enemy, cold.
Three units of the task force
were in the field at the time the
temperature drop came, and though
it was a little rough at first, they
came out with flying colors. All
are encamped in the southwest of
Fairbanks near the Salcha river
area. The units are A company,
10th engineers, commanded by Capt.
Roy T. Gordon, st. Helens, Ore;
A battery, 9th field artillery, COM
manded by Maj. T. E. Croker of
Fitchburg, Mass; and B battery,
Bird field artillery observation bat
talon, commanded by Capt. Warren
SOlNSrI, d ANTONIO, lex.
Company A, 10th engineers, held
the record for the lowest temper
allure yet recorded, a mere minus
SO degrees, and the other units
listed similar temperatures while
the Fairbanks weather bureau gave
the official temperature at Fair
banks as 80.
The men were bivouaced in tents
and had to depend upon their ini-
tiative and the clothing which was
provided to withstand the cold; they
learned much about survival and
outdoor living. They also had the
unique distinction of being the
first units to experience the ex-
IRENE cold which is recorded as the
earliest all time low on record in
Alaska.

He sat very still for a moment,
his eyes clinging to hers, and she
thought he scarcely seemed to
breathe. And then he said casually,
II went for a walk"
And as proof that he had had his
say on the subject and no intention
of speaking again, he got up and
left the room.
She couldn't believe that her ia
ther had killed Alicia Stevenson. It
was an incredible thought; but he
had been out of the house, and he
was very anxious that no one should
know about that. And she thought
of herself and Tom Fallon, on the
Ridge.
And then she remembered his
face tonight and the tone Of his voice
when that little word darling" had
slipped out the look in his
eyes, naked and poignant and un-
ashamed, the warmth and tender
ness in his shaken voice that had
been like shining garment wrapped
about her chilled body.
ooh, no-no-I won't have it like
that! I won't be in love with him-1
won't!" she walled, deep in her
frightened, stricken mind. But her
heart went relentlessly on, "You
can't help it! You can't stop it.
You didn't ask for it-but you can
never deny it! He knows it, too
he feels as you do-you saw it in his
eyes, heard it in his voice tonight.
You love him and he loves you-and
he has a wife who has a greater
claim on him than if there were
children. Your love can never, new
er mean anything except heartbreak
and self-deniall You know that
but you can't stop loving himl Any
more than you can stop breathing!"
The inquest was held the following
afternoon in the rickety, nondescript
little frame building where the Draft
Board met, and it seemed that, ex-
cept for the few bedridden in the
town, everybody was there.
Everybody, tnaL is, except Megan
and her father. For contrary to
Jim's uneasy fear, neither he nor
Megan had been called to appear.
Little Betty Hendrix, Bill Logan,
Mrs. Stuart, and few of the others
who had been first on the scene had
been called. Megan did not quite
know whether to be more relieved,
or more frightened that neither she
nor her father had received orders
| to appear. But she had firmly
declined Mrs. Stuart's hearty invi-
tation that she 60, anyway.
Megan made herself keep busy
