November Housing
Contracts Gain In
Numberd and Value

New York City (ILNS).-F. w.
Dodge Corporation reported that con-
tracts were awarded in November for
1888 new dwelling units to cost
72,577, 900 in the 81 states east of
the Rocky Mountains. This was the
largest number Of new units to figure
in contracts awarded in single month
since December, 1943, and the largest
monthly dollar volume for such con-
struction since June, 1912, spokesman
for the corporation said.
While contracts in both December,
1943 and June, 1912 involved a con-
siderable amount of public housing,
only percent of November's total fell
into that category. The November dol
lar volume of privately owned resi-
Dental building exceeds that for any
month since April, 1912, the corpora
tion reported.
Dollar volume of all construction
contracts in the 81 eastern states dur
| ing the first II months of 1916 total
ed $2,968, 900 compared to $780,
535, 900 in the corresponding period of
1914.

time contribution.
This program marks the end of the
first years cycle Of So consecutive
weekly broadcasts by the American
Federation of Labor in cooperation
with the three radio networks men
toned earlier.
In these programs, the AFL has
presented it's news and views in the
firm belief that what helps labor helps
the nation. The response from our lis
tening audience has been highly en-
couraging.
AS proof Of the success of the coop
erative policy between labor and the
radio networks, the latter have agreed
to continue the same arrangements in
1916.
The American Federation of Labor
wishes to express it's sincere apprecia-
tion to the National Broadcasting Com
pany, the Columbia Broadcasting Sys-
tenn and the American Broadcasting
Company for according labor q
measure of freedom of the air. 1t is
also worth mentioning that in no case
has the American Federation of Labor
ever encountered any attempt to cen.
sor it's scripts or to interfere with its
freedom Of expression on the air.

FREEDOM OF THE AIR
By Philip Pearl
AFL Publicity Director

In free country like ours, no one
has a monopoly on the air. That goes
not only for breathing but for broad
casting.
Radio stations operate not through
rights of possession but under govern
ment license. Each licensed station is
assigned specific wave-length by the
Federal Communications Commission.
Since most stations are operated for
private profit they must sell part of
their broadcasting time to sponsors
who wish to advertise commercial
products. News programs as well as
entertainment are sponsored by busi-
ness firms. Inevitably, the views of
big business have in this way dominat-
ed the air waves.
Now organized labor can't compete
with big business in paid advertising.
1t just doesn't have the money. But
even if it had, the rules of the National
Association of Broadcasters have been
interpreted by most networks as for
bidding sale of time on the air to labor
organizations.
Fortunately there is another side to
the picture. The code of the National
Association of Broadcasters encourag-
es the extension of free time-to labor
organizations as well as others-for
the discussion of public problems. And
the Federal Communications Commits
sion requires all stations to devote
part of their broadcast time to such
discussions.
On this basis of freedom of the air,
the American Federation of Labor
year ago appealed to the four major
networks to provide it with time for
a regular series of weekly radio pro-
grams throughout the year Three of
the networks responded favorably-
the National Broadcasting Company
the Columbia Broadcasting System and
the American Broadcasting Company
When the fourth network refused to
provide time for a regular weekly
series, the American Broadcasting
Company volunteered to double its

MOlders Vote on Holding
Convention This Year

Cincinnati, O. ILNS).-Locals of
the international Molders' and Foun-
dry Workers Union are to vote this
month on the question, "Shall the in
ternational union hold convention in
1946?" The vote will close Jan. 81.
The last convention of the union was
held in 1910 at ST. Louis. The execu-
tive board has recommended that con-
vention be held this year. Noting that
it has been years since the last con-
vention, the board said it would seem
inadvisable to longer delay meeting
and added:
"A convention is a stimulant to
greater interest and effort on the
part of our members, and increased
militancy is needed now. In conven-
ton sessions, delegates have the op-
portunity to present and discuss to-
gether their ideas for the strengthen
ing of the economic interests of all
members"

Big 1916 Problems To
Be Taken Up By AFL
Executive Council Jan. 2,

Miami, Fla.-Legislative problems
vital to labor's interests will form the
principal topics of discussion at the
annual winter meeting of the EXecu-
tive Council Of the American Fedora
tion of Labor which opens here Jan.
I21.
Another question which may come
up before the meeting and which has
aroused wide public interest is the
possible reaffiliation of the United
Mine Workers Union with the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor. No official
announcement as to whether this SUBJ
ject will be considered has been forth
coming.
First among the legislative issues
confronting the AFL leaders is the
Norton-Ellender Bill, based upon a
proposal by President Truman fol
the authorization of fact-finding dis
putes to prevent strikes and make rec
concentrations for settlement after
collective bargaining has broken down
The AFL already has come out
against this bill on the ground that il
infringes the right to strike and woule
lay unions open to penalties through
court injunctions and damage suits.
On the positive side, the AFL Exc
cutive Council is expected to pres:
| Congress for adoption of full employ

Green Appeals To Affiliated
Bodies To Get Vote On
J o b lie S Pay Bill

Washington, D. C.-AFL President
William Green appealed to all State
Federations of Labor and City Cen
tral Bodies to join in drive for ac-
tion by Congress on unemployment
compensation legislation which would
provide nationwide maximum of
$25 week for six months of the year
to those who lose their jobs during
reconversion.
The bill, urged by President Tru-
man, is now buried in a pigeon-hole
of the House Ways and Means Com
mittee, but Rep. Bradley of Pennsyl-
vania has initiated petition to dis
charge the committee from further
consideration Of the measure and
force it to the floor for vote.
Mr.. Green informed the affiliated
organizations that the rules of the
House require 218 signatures on such
petition before the committee can
be discharged.
He therefore urged the state and
city bodies to prevail upon their Rep
resentatives during the congressional
recess to sign the petition and put it
over.
''Insist that they do so, as mat
ter of simple justice" Mr.. Green
wrote.
Attempts to get quick action on
pending minimum wage legislation
designed to lift the floor under wages
in interstate commerce to 65 cents an
hour hit a snag when the Senate
Labor Committee decided to postpone
further hearings on the measure to
Jan. 81.
Senator Ellender, of Louisiana, who
opposes the bill blocked earlier action
in secret committee session.
The bill would lift the minimum
wage to 70 cents after one year and
to rs cents after two years. Thus, it
would be Of tremendous benefit to mil
lions of workers in the low-income
brackets and help to swell purchasing
power.
