Unions Own Actions
|Expected 10 Point
Way Of Legislation
Dy the Assoeiossd Press

The actions of unions between
now and next January, when the
new Congress is convened. will de-
termine to a large extent what
kind Of labor legislation is written.
In the privately expressed opinion
Of key lawmakers.
II major industrial trouble de-
velops this fall. speedy piecemeal
enactment Of measures designed to
remedy the apparent sore spots
appears likely to many Congress-
men.
On the other hand. II COM
parative peace prevails on the labor
management front a slower, long
range program for revision of pres
ent legislation is expected.
These views represent a summary
OF opinions expressed by the few
legislators still here and by KEY
members before they left for home
recently.
Joint Committee Mentioned.
First action contemplated when
Congress reconvenes is establish
ment Of joint Senate-House COM
mittee to make survey Of labor
management relations and offer
recommendations for remedial bills.
Once such committee is estab-
llshed, unless major labor disputes
develop, 1t probably will be given
few months to complete It's task.
But II 1t Is slow in acting. or
trouble develops, powerful group Of
legislators is prepared to demand
immediate action on program
which is now being prepared.
Leaders OF this group include
prominent members of both parties,
chiefly those who engineered pas
sage Of most labor legislation in the
last Congress. Among the individuals
are Senator'S Taft. Republican, of
Ohio; Ball, Republican. of Mime
sofa: Hatch. Democrat, of New
Mexico; Russell. Democrat, of Geor-
gia. and Representatives Case, Re-
publican, Of South Dakota; Cox,
Democrat. of Georgia: Halleck, Re-
publican, of Indiana; Brown. Repub-
lican. of Ohio and Smith, Democrat,
of Virginia.
Formula Stated by Ball.
Senator Ball already has an
nounced the formula which he will
offer individually. He would:
l. Establish equal responsibility
for observance of laws by manage
ment and unions.
2. Ban coercion of workers.
3. Modify present closed shop con-
ditions.
4, Strengthen Federal mediation
machinery.
S. Define more specifically what
shall be considered an unfair prac
tice by unions and management.
Several of these provisions were In
the Case bill which Congress passed
but President Truman vetoed. The
sponsors Of the Case measure intend
to renew their attempts to get q
similar bill enacted, but are will
ing to accept some notifications.

Luxury Grade Meats
Expected TO Go Up,
Cheap Cuts Down

Higher price ceilings on choice
meat cuts such as steaks to keep
down the cost of most other grades
was forecast by an OPA official to-
day.
He said that this seems likely
to be the way they'd 60 about it, in
determing prices for the return of
retail meat ceilings next week.
He cautioned however, against
concluding that prices on the more
expensive cuts would be far in ex-
cess of earlier ceilings or that prices
on cheaper meats would be lower
OPA experts still are working on
the meat ceilings scheduled to 60
into effect September 9. New prices
probably will not be announced un-
til the end of this week, the spokes-
man said.
Besides the difficulty of calculat-
ing such price ceilings for nine zones
and for four general classif1cations
OF stores throughout the country, he
said, there is a great mechanical
problem
Price charts must be prepared for
each of the zones and types and
must be posted This may delay an
nouncement of the retail meat CELL
ings until Friday or Saturday
The official said OPA hopes to
keep most meat prices as close as
possible to the June 80 level. To
do this for meats most commonly
used, it may be necessary to fix
higher ceilings on socalled luxury
cuts, he said. He declared that. SO
far as he knew, there have been
no decisions along this line.
Ceilings on choice cuts may be
as much as 10 cents higher than
on ordinary cuts. he said, to keep
ceilings from going more than a
cent or two higher on lower grade

Ives Regaining Favor
Among New York COP
As Senate Candidate
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

SARATOGA SPRINGS. N. Y
Sept. 2-Republican leaders toda
awaited showdown" session, callet
on the eve of the State convention
in an administration effort to bring
agreement on candidate for Sen
stor. as speculation focused anew
on Assembly Leader Irving M. Ives
Forces of Gov Dewey, who once
termed the race wide open" later
hailed 1t. Gen. Hugh A. Drum as
the ,favorite and still later cooled
toward his candidacy, said they were
working on the situation and ad-
mitted that Mr.. Ives again was q
good speculative" prospect.
Mr.. Ives has been a favorite of
many prominent legislative associ-
stes for several months They in
sisted his liberal" views, as evil
denced especially by his legislation
creating the New York State School
Of Industrial Relations at Cornell
University, would strengthen the
Dewey ticket and win labor support
Ready for Draft"
Now dean of the school created by
his legislation, Mr.. Ives did not run
for denomination to the Assembly
from Chenango County in the Au-
gust primary He refused, although
urged. to declare himself candidate
for Senator, but has told many
friends he would consent to a
draft"
The situation with which the Re-
publican high command struggled
also was complicated by continued
administration resistance to the
candidacy of another general, Maj.
Gen. William J Donovan. who &C
ouired support Of numerous Dewey
followers before State Chairman
Glen R Bedenkapp hailed Gen,
Drum as the man"
Long distance telephones worked
overtime during the week end as
party leaders were summoned to
Saratoga Springs in advance OF the
opening of the convention Tuesday,
Meanwhile. Gen Drum, who has
ssid he is not a candidate, remained
silent. Gen. Donovan continued his
speechmaking and twice praised
Gov. DeWeys leadership, and several
other hopeful individuals impa-
tientlv waited for the Governor to
bestoN his accolade.
DeWey's Position Strong.
Gov. Dewey, unopposed for re-
nomination but nevertheless an un-
declared candidate, remains In a
strong bargaining position. His pre-
decessor in the executive mansion,
Herbert H. Lehman. once dictated
selection by the Democrats OF per-
.sonal candidate for Lieutenant Gov
ernor as a part of an agreement TO
head the ticket again.
Except for disagreement on SEN
atorlal candidate, the Republican
leadership had ticket we'll agreed
on by the 1907 convention delegates
who will meet for the first time at
9 am. tomorrow. However, a close
Dewey associate confided that last
minute switch of some members OF
the first team" to permit one to
make the race for the Senate was
possible.
The first team" so designated by
the Governor, consists OF present
Republican incumbents. including
Gov. Dewey: 1t. Gov. Joe R. Hanley
Attorney General Nathaniel L
Goldstein and Controller Frank c.

L. R. Emmet fo Erie, Pa, will continue as the committees chair man.
 The nomination of MT. Collins as member of the National Labor Advisory Committee, it is believed, is in recognition of the cooperation given to the Labor League for Human Rights, A. F. of L. welfare arm, by the Connecticut Fedora tion of Labor.
 At the Waterbury convention of the c. F. of L., presided over by MT. Collins, last January, a resolu- ton of endorsement was unani- mously adopted which referred to the Leagues postwar program seeking to insure an even higher standard of health and welfare services" in communities through out the country.

 Senator Leverett Saltonstall (R) of Massachusetts declared: T be- lieve that our annual quotas that were not filled up during the war should be filled and admitted. I assume that any increased admit tance will become question of legislation by Congress. You may rest assured that my heart goes out to these people who are without homes and displaced and that any question of this character submitted to the Senate by the President will have more than my sympathetic consideration"
 Senator Joseph H. Ball (R) of Minnesota stated: II would be in favor of whatever modifications of existing laws are necessary to make sure that the U. $. does its full share in meeting this world respon- sibility."
 Senator H. Alexander Smith (R) of New Jersey wrote: T have long ago taken the position that our country should make every effort to amend our immigration laws to allow a greater quota of these most unfortunate people"
 Senator Robert F. Wagner CD of New York declared: Heartily sup port program of AFL for use of un- filled quotas to provide haven in America for displaced persons. Will give fullest support to enabling legislation"
 Congressman James w. Wads- worth (R) of New York stated: T find myself in general agreement with the AFL resolution as quoted in your telegram"
 Congressman Adolph J. Sabath (D) of Illinois stated: Ut Is scarce ly necessary that I repeat my views on the subject of the admission in- to the U. s. of displaced persons. Even during the war l Sympathized with their plight, and sought to have them admitted"

Rourke pro- posed, "We should do this as a mat ter of simple humanity and to set an example to other countries which undoubtedly would follow our lead" he added.
 Contending that during the war period only seven percent of the quota of immigrants provided by law were able to reach the United States, the C. F. of L. leader held that i've could easily absorb thous- ands of hardy Europeans who man. aged to survive the Hitler terror" !"
 Some recent immigrants, MT. Rourke declared, had introduced new technical skills and products which had provided jobs for many American workers. He also main- tained that there was practically no danger of new arrivals becom- ing public charges since their financial security must be guaran- teed by American friends or rela- lives.
