Texas Rejects
Homer Rainey

WASHINGTON, Sept. 3 (LPA)
Primaries In two southern
states held the center of interest
of political weather-prophets In
the nations capitol last week. In
one, Representative Dan Niece
hee, lost the seat he has held for
IL years to a war veteran, John
b. Williams, in a runoff Demo
cratic primary In Mississippi
McGehee, who has q black labor
record, is known as the one-mar
stumbling block to all plans to
erect low-cost housing In the Dis
trict of Columbia. Williams Is
disabled veteran who was ar
AAF pilot during the war.
In Texas, liberal Homer
Rainey, former u. Of Texas presi
dent, lost in a runoff primary to
Beauford H. Jester. The winner
interpreted his choice as proof
that the state wants mo new
tangled theories of government"
Observers offered little hope
that the Virginia state Demo
cratic convention would nominate
anyone but a member of the re-
dictionary Byrd machine to re-
place Carter Glass, veteran
member of the Senate who died
several months ago.

SOUTH BEND, Ind, Sept. 8
OPA)-Hitting hard at oppo-
nents of the Wagner-Ellender-
Taft General Housing Bill, Hous-
ing Expediter Wilson Wyatt in
a talk here gave one of the best
explanations yet heard of why
organized labor is 100 per cent
behind the measure. He said: II
can imagine a factory worker
becoming indignant over the fact
that high pressure lobby, rep
resenting the man who is renting
him an uncomfortable flat at a
high price, has prevented any OF
the factory workers taxes being
spent to help get him a better
place to live in"
The Housing Expediter spoke
at the National Conference OF
Catholic Charities before almost

'AFL Tops CIO
In ; Atomic
Plant Votes

OAK RIDGE, Sept. 3 (LPA)-
CIO and AFL organizers were
putting on intensified drives
here his week for two NLRB
run-off elections scheduled for
the near future. A third run-oft
election between the AFL and
"no-union" has AFL organizers
working overtime.
The AFL topped the CIO vote
in elections at all three plants.
The NLRB's final check of the
ballots-with 10,831 out of H.
376 eligibles voting - showed
this scorebroard:
Monsato Chemical Co. with
676 eligible; AFL 289; CIO 121;
no union 176. Carbon & Carbide
Co. with 4500 eligible; AFL
1912; CIO 1929; no union 1878,
Tennessee Eastman with $500
eligible; AFL 1921; CIO 1881; no
union 2579. The run-offs will
be between AFL and CIO at
both Monsanto and Carbon &
Carbide, while at Tennessee
Eastman the AFL will share the
ballot with mo union"
No date was set for the final
elections, although in most in
stances they. are held within one
month of the first balloting. OF
chief interest to CIO and AFL
leaders in this first head-on clash
of t h cir respective southern
drives was the fact that So pei
cent of the voters favored repre-
sentation by a union. Moreover, ii
was pointed out that 81 per cent
of the eligible voters cast bal.
los, an extraordinarily high per.
centage In any NLRB election.

Government
Shows Jobs
Still Needed

WASHINGTON, September 3
nPA)-While employment has
risen to record levels in the
summer months, there still re-
main "sizable pools of unem'
ployed men" in certain areas,
and it will be necessary to pro-
vide 5000, 1000 jobs in the second
half of 1946 to eliminate unem-
ployment among World War II
veterans, government reports In
F.. dicated last week.
From the u. S. Employment
Service came the news that en-
ployment increases have been
reported In July in two thirds
of the e5 important labor mar
ket areas surveyed by the USES
early in August.
In 81 Of the 95 areas, there
were optimistic reports on EN-
ployment prospects for the COM
ing few months, though the
Uses cautioned that Before 1t
can be said that this country has
general labor shortage, unem'
ployment must be reduced below
the current level Of 2,27O,OOO
workers reported by the Bureau
Of the Census"
The picture for the veteran
tob-seeker, according to the Vet.
erans' Administration, sh ow s
that jobless benefit payments to
veterans passed the billion dol
lar mark In July, and that since
last September some 1900, 600
veterans have applied for allow
anees. The average length OF
time the veteran collects the
benefits is about 10 weeks.
In the week ending August
10, according to most recent fig
ures from the Veterans Admin
istration, 1,643,000 veterans
were still collecting jobless ben
efits, q total only 141 900 below
the peak period in March.
