Strike Proves
Costly to GM

DETROIT, May 5 (LPA) -
One sentence in the General Mo-
tors financial report for the first
quarter of 1916 told the whole
story of what the strike of 175,-
900 workers did to the world S
richest corporation during the
first three months of this year.
"Sales in the first quarter this
year consisted mainly of parts
other than automotive products,
the report confessed sadly. Much
more substantial meat for GIN
stockholders to chew over was
the disclosure that the COM
pany's operating loss in the first
three months was $98, 8,988,663
Government tax polio S,
which have been bitterly criti-
cized by labor leaders, reduced
this loss, however, to a net of
S36,124,663. Even sales for the
quarter dropped from $1,O22,-
693,175 in the last quarter of
1945 to $74,95O,618. Net working
capital on March 81 was 1924
566,791 compared with S775,-
at the end of last year.

ure, Sen. Robert F. Wagner, Cd.
N. Y.) last week issued an urg-
ent plea for quick action on the
measure.
-Four long months have gone
by since Mr.. Wyatt became
. Housing Expediter," Wagner
said, "and Congress has not yet
approved the legislation which
President Truman called the
very heart" of the veterans
housing program"
Wagner charged q few OBJ
Structionists" in the House of
Representatives with deliberate
ly stalling the bill, and trying to
kill it by neglect. These same
men, he warned, will try to kill
the bill in the conference COM
mittee.
Just as important, Wagner
pointed out, is the fate of the
General Housing Bill, sponsored
by himself, and Senators Ellen
der and Taft. Without this bill,
which awaits action in the
House, Wagner said most of the
houses which get built will be
far beyond the veterans finan-
cial reach"

.CIO Calls Health
Insurance q Must

WASHINGTON, May 5 (LPA)
-"CIO members know that to-
day medical care costs the Amer
ican people about four billion
dollars a year" CIO secretary
treasurer James B. Carey told
the Senate Labor & Education
Committee last week. He pre-
sented statement for CIO Pres
ident Philip Murray as hearings
continued on the Wagner-Mur-
ray-Dingell National Health Bill.
I'VE know that this same
amount of money, used to sup
port the current medical estab-
lishment, could be paid by en-
ployers and by each gainfully
employed person in insurance, "
Carey said.
American Medical Associa-
ton figures show that 75% of
all American families need fl
nancial assistance to pay for any
serious illness. According to a
study made by the American
Medical Associations Bureau of
Medical Economics in 1889, all
families with incomes under
$4,000 usually need assistance in
paying for proper care of serious
illness. When illness strikes
those families, they may be
plunged into debt. Or worse, if
the breadwinner is stricken, they
may be thrown on public or pri-
vate charity.
The doctor, if the family calls
one, may see at the start that
he cannot hope to collector,
not for a long while. What is
the family to do? What is the
doctor to do?
These hazards lead the aver
age worker to want prepaid per-
sonal health benefits" f"
Refers To Opponents
Referring to. opponents of the
National Health Act, the CIO
spokesman went on. I'm the face
of the general nationwide de-
mand for passage of this bill, we
cannot believe that efforts of
certain entrenched individuals at
the top of a few organizations can
block its passage. The broadcast
ing of Misrepresentation over the
last several years has begun to
boomerang and the groups these
individuals influence are talking
compromise. There should be no
compromise short of an adequate
Federal compulsory health in
surance act"
