price control ever since the war
began. We believe that firm
control is at least as necessary
now as during the war. It in
clear to everyone that specula-
ton and other inflationary
preSSureS can wreck our econo-
mic system if price control is
eliminated or emasculated.
Alarmed By Speed
1--WE are alarmed, therefore.
at the speed with which OPA is
removing price ceilings and thus
putting an end to price control.
We regard these actions as be-
ing in the main premature and
ill-conSidered. The result is an
unnecessary, avoidable increase
in the cost of living.
I'VE are equally perturbed
with the frequency and generos-
ity with which increases are be-
ing made in the prices of COM
modities which are vitality inn
portant to the American con-
sumner. We can find no reason
for many of the increases ex-
Icept the pressures of selfish
lobby groups, aided and abetted
by some Congressman for the
purpose of adding to already
swollen profits"

CHICAGO, April 1 (LPA) -
The American Legion's reaction
ary championship of Selective
Service Director Lewis Her
shey's anti-labor superseniority
notions, repudiated three times
by Federal courts, was slapped
last week by a group of the Le-
gion'S own members.
The National Conference of
Union Labor Legionnaires in it's
March newsletter asks, HAS
Larry Fenlon, chairman of the
Legion's national employment
committee, led the Legion up a
blind alley in supporting Her
shey's superseniority interpreta-
ton? Is he also responsible for
the spending Of $4,000 by the
Legion in a foolish endeavor to
make a tect case of supersenior-
ity? Judge for yourself:
Points To Decision
"The u. S. Circuit Court of
Appeals" the Union Legion
naires point out, reversed the
decision of Judge Abruzzo and
held that it was not the intent
of the selective service act to
grant a step-up in the seniority
rights of veteran. Judge Learn
ed Hand wrote that it seems to
us beyond debate that it was not
intended that the veterans
should gain in seniority"
Meanwhile, throughout the
u n try employers gradually
abandoned any hopes that they
could use superseniority as q
wedge between unionists and
veterans, or that the Supreme
Court would reverse the three
lower courts that found super
seniority was not intended by
Congress. Newest and largest
employer to junk the idea was
General Motors last week.

RoIIv To CIimox Income
Payroll Tax Fight

with whom Mrs. Snyder has an
indirect contact Is going the
rounds in downtown Toledo and
many who had intended voting
for the tax are now changing
their minds in the face of the eff
forts which are being made to
defeat the democratic processes
provided by the city charter.
Blade Continues Attack
Meanwhile, the Toledo Blade
which has consistently attacked
Richard Gosser who led the fight
on the tax from the very outset
has turned its editorial guns on
Lawrence N. Steinberg URWD-
SEA-CIO regional director and
Clayton Rusch, PAC chairman
who have been active in seeking
to defeat the tax measuSe.
Last minute personal attacks
are being planned upon all CIO
leaders and every effort will be
made to retain the ordinance by
attempting to discredit CIO and
its leadership.
In commenting on the situa-
ton, Richard Gosser today said,
"they have turned on everything
in the book to make this issue
something entirely different than
it is in fact. l still believe, how
ever, that when the people OF
Toledo vote next Thursday they
will not be influenced by any
other motive tn an that the
American payroll dollar Is al
ready vastly overtaxed and will
decisively reject the ordinance
and repudiate those who failed
TO take into account the differ
ences of earning power which
exist in this community.

of this city will not be confused
when the issue is so clear cut"

"After careful investigation of
the cost of wage increases made
in recent months" Murray as
serted, "the evidence is quite
clear that most if not all of

have been absorbed out of in

such absorption not been requir-
ed, but the price increases
which have been made in near
ly all instances exceeded the
cost of the wage increase.

"I am therefore calling upon
Mr.. Chester Bowles and Mr.

control program, to restore the
price ceilings on those items
whose prices have risen since

clear that price increases VIII

Steel Rofioninq
Demanded By CIO

WASHINGTON, April q
(LPA)-The giant steel corpora
tions should be ordered to pro-
vide adequate tonnageS of semi
finished steel to the small tseel
producers, United Steelworkers-
CIO President Philip Murray
wired President Truman last
week.
The CIO head told Truman
that ''The failure Of the Civil
ian Production Agency to allo-
cate pig iron and steel is i'm
peding reconversion and threat
ening the very life of small COM
.panieS."
The tight grip that the big
steel barons have on the supply
of the basic industrial material
is indicated by the fact, Murray
said, that workers in stove and
refrigerator plants are being laid
off or are suffering from cur
tailed operations for lack of
steel" He cited the case of the
Andrews Steel Co. in Newport,
KY, where 1000 union workers
are idle, and the company may
be forced out of business unless
it can secure iron.
Cannot Secure Steel
MANY steel consumers are
unable to secure certain steel
products because the industry
has abandoned their production
for more profitable items" Muir
ray wired the President.
"These are but a few examples
of how reconversion is being
held up because the control of
the distribution of iron and steel
is left to the giant steel corpora
tions. It is essential for the re-
conversion period that iron and
steel supplies be equitably dis
tributed.
Il therefore respectfully re-
quest that it e made the policy
of your Administration to al
locate iron and steel, and such
other raw materials as may be
in short supply, or else recon-
version will suffer and many
small businesses will be forced
to close for lack of needed raw

81, 900. The measure was voted
down by an overwhelming mai
ority.
Vote Down Minority
The minority report provided
for salaries $500 less than the
majority report for all Interna-
tional officers and this too was
voted down with enthusiastic
gusto accompanied by a mighty
chorus of boos.
Finally, the measure went to
the floor of the convention and
when one delegate proposed that
the salaries of the top officers
remain the same as they are
now, the convention adopted the
measure by almost unanimous
vote.
It was pointed out by those
who favored the increase for
the officers that the wage pat
tern had increased the workers
by 1914 cents and that other
unions, most of them smaller
than the Auto Workers paid
their officers larger salaries.
Delegates State Views
In rebuttal, delegates who
fought for the floor to combat
the raise pointed out that the
Officers had not lost time dur
ing the past year; that they
were paid we'll for their work
and that IL they were really for
the workers they should be
satisfied as long as they were
paid enough to live comfortably.
A proposal to give the officers
an 1874 per cent increase the
same as the rank and file work
ers was decisively voted down.
Passed was a measure to give
union representatives away from
home on union business SIS q
day expenses.

Gosser Reelected TO
JAW Executive Board

Thomas's candidacy was IN the
nature of a surprise inasmuch as
he had bid the union goodbye
in his presidential swan song
Thomas had the solid backing
of the Adde's Communist forces
for the vice-presidency, the
same as it was given to him for
the presidency.
Taking A Chance
Many of the delegates to the
convention looked upon Thomas
candidacy as taking a chance
and seeing in his possible defeat
a return to his welding job,
However, Thomas victory in
taking over the union number
2 spot was without precedent In
|UAW-CIO political history.
Only two places to be changed
on the board aside from the TOP
four officers was the election OF
Emil Macy and Harold Steven
son.
Board Lineup
Despite his election to the
presidency, Walter Reuther will
find himself and his group still
in the minority position on the
board. AS the board now lines
up it will be eight to Ia with
the Addes-Thomas group In the
majority.
Asked at a press conference Il
he would cooperate with PAC
Mr.. Reuther said he would give
intelligent cooperation. He statec
that he would tolerate no out
side interference from any mi
nority group and gave stront
intimation that he was going u
use his position to strengthen the
unions position and strength.
Predicts Growth
Mr.. Reuther predicted to th'
press that the UAW-CIO Woult
again take its place as th'
worlds largest union and saiC
that it would reach its wartim'
number and possibly exceed II
Union commentators express
ed the opinion that the new
|UAW head would move witt
great caution in making change
in the staff, but all agreed tina

tain to go as editor of the Un
ions official paper, The Aut'
Worker"
Also predicted to be removed
are AL Leggatt, associate edi
tor; Jack Zeller, educational de
partment director; James Wish
art. research director and a few
others in these departments.
Predict Cooperation
Many predictions are beinl
made here that Reuther anc
Thomas will get closer together
and that Adde's has broken WITT
the Communists whose suppor'
he has received for the past sew
eral years.
Competent observers mere
point out that Adde's received

GPA) - Wage Stabilization
Board approval was announced
last week for the 1870 an hour
wage increase won by 100000
employees of the big four rub
Der companies. The companies
will now use this authorization
to demand price boosts on tires
and other rubber products. OPA
officials said, providing that the
pay increase causes the indus
try's earnings to drop below the
1868 level.
