Newspaper Guild
PIuns Drive For
New Wage Poffern

St. Louis, Mo. (FP)-A drive for a
500 weekly minimum wage for ex-
perienced reporters and a $50 mini
mum for adult employees in any
newspaper department was planned
here by more than 100 representatives
of American Newspaper Guild locals
in 2-day strategy session.
The conference, which drew repre-
sentatives from over 40 locals in addi-
ton to international officers and staff
members, was devoted to shaping col
lective bargaining strategy for 1947
and ironing out procedure to attain
wage detectives.
Besides the wage goal on news
papers, the session planned to de-
mand top minimum of $1l0 for wire
service employees because of the
higher skill and more exacting duties
required. The program also called for
longer vacation periods, job security
and union security.
Delegates recommended the inter-
national executive board levy weekly
assessments, if necessary, to assist
Guildsmen striking against the
Hearst Herald Express in Los An
geles.

1t will come as surprise to many
to learn that relief shipments made
by the United Nations Relief and Re-
habilitation Administration add up to
the worlds largest and most unique
peacetime shipping operation. This
was reported recently by Director
General r. II. LaGuardia Of the
/ UNRRA who said that to date it has
shipped more than 13 million tons Of
relife supplies, valued at almost 2 bill
lion dollars to liberated countries in
Europe and Asia. These have gone
forth in some 2,C00 shipments.
During July alone, UNRRA ships
departed at the average rate Of 7
day. Topping all previous records,
they carried some 2 million long tons
of supplies valued at more than $751;
900 900.
UNRRA ships sail from any one Of
about $50 loading areas and criss-
cross the globe every minute Of the
time, the Director General revealed.
They depart from places as far-flung
as India, Iceland, Africa, the Pacific
Islands and Newfoundland, and are
bound for any of the Is different des-
tinations, many of which have several
ports.
The UNRRA shipping record is
even more spectacular, LaGuardia
pointed out, when one considers that
it has grown up in the space Of little
more than a year, and that it was
first undertaken when a large part
of the world was still in the grip Of
war.
When UNRRA's first full relief
ship sailed in March, 1945, the seas
were battle fields, he explained.
Waters were mined, channels and
harbors were silted and blocked by
wrecked ships. and vessels had to
travel in convoy under strictest war
time secrecy.
There was an acute shortage Of
ships, and shipping organizations
throughout the world We're disrupted
AS a result, UNRRA had to create
its shipping organization and machin-

AFL Union Wins More Pay
Without Strike Threat

New York City (ILNS)-What was
described as the first bus contract III
Queens County to be negotiated with
out the threat of strike or without
arbitration proceedings has been
ratified by employees of the Triboro
Coach Corporation organized in an
American Federation of Labor Union.
The agreement, which was worked
out by committees representing the
company and Local 1104 of the
Amalgamated Association of Street,
Electric Railway and Motor Coach
Employees, provides wage increases
Of Is cents an hour for the period
from April l to Dec 81, 1916, and Is
cents an hour from Jan. l to June 80,
1947.
The 15-month contract period was
arranged because of the desire of the
union to have all its contracts cover
ing Queens bus companies expire on
a uniform date.

It's a
Great Sysfem!
By JOHN PAINE, Federated Press

Harry Truman had better get over
the idea that he has any say in U. S.
foreign policy. A reactionary Republi-
can and two southern Democrats,
one of them a polltaxer, have control
of our relations with other nations
and they're going to let go of it.
Who did Truman think he was,
anyway-President?
The You Should -Live-So-Long Club
has just voted honorary membership
to Homer Hogshead, who's waiting
for the boss to give him raise with
out being asked for it.
MANAGEMENT geniuses who figured
out those share-the-profit schemes
have noticed what happened to the
Wall Street market. They're working
"a hours a day now doping out a
scheme to have the workers share the
losses.
They figure that would be cheaper
than firing them.
If Secretary of State Byrnes could
work himself up to be half as mad
at the Nazis as he is at Henry Wal
lace and Sen. Pepper, we'd have more
confidence he was right.
Compared with Congressman Drip
of our district, a skunk is very
modest animal.
At least a skunk doesn't come
around asking you to vote for him
so he can do it to you for two years
more.
Newspapers report that the Chi
nese and Philippine governments are

cry even while sending supplies.
Docking, discharging, warehousing-
all had to be done by UNRRA. Today,
UNRRA employs hundreds of port
officers, warehousemen and ship
workers in the various foreign ports.
Although UNRRA has had to take
hurdle after hurdle in its shipping
operations, the flow of relief supplies
has never ceased, the Director Gen
eral said.
Probably the most alarming of
these difficulties was the worldwide
food shortage which developed early
this year, yet food has been the major
item shipped-only last March did
food shipments start going down in
volume. Ranking items include medi-
cal supplies, clothing, rehabilitation
materials, cattle and animals.
These are overall general commodi-
ty terms, LaGuardia emphasized.
Actually, each cargo includes literal
ly hundreds of items ranging from
wheat and dried meat to DDT powder
and safety pins, from tractors and
machinery to bulldozers and 200-ton
tugs.
The following countries have re-
ceived UNRRA supplies: Albania,
Austria, Byelorussian S. S. R., China,
Czechoslovakia, Dodecanese Islands,
Finland, Greece, Hungary, Italy,
Korea, Philippines, Poland, Ukrainian
S. S. r., Yugoslavia.

Lounch Campaign
For Equal Rights

New York (FP)-To rectify the
status of women in the L. S., cam
paign for an "equal rights plus
amendment to the constitution is be-
ing launched here by the Congress of
American Women.
The amendment is intended not
only to give women equal social, poll
tical and economic rights with men,
but also to safeguard legislation
which provides special protection for
women as mothers and workers.
Trade unions and progressive or
ganizations have consistently critici-
zed efforts by women's groups to
secure an equal rights amendment
which failed to provide for continued
special Legislation for women. The
new proposal is seen as avoiding that
pitfall.
Susan B. Anthony, head of the Wo-
mems Status Commission of the Con-
gress, declared that "in the 48 states
and territories there exist some thou
sand discriminatory laws against wo-
men which can~be invoked at any
time to push women back into the
18th century chatteldom..
The "equal rights plus" amend
ment, she said, is the only way to
secure uniform protection of women's
rights.

News Guild Gets Election
On National Weekly

Washington (FP)-The owners OF
Pathfinder Magazine, national weekly
with 100000 circulation, were checked
Aug. IL after months of stalling with
the American Newspaper Guild as
the .NLRB ordered an election among
its 80 employees here.
Farm Journal, Inc, owners of Path
finder, had blocked union efforts to
bargain since the shop was organized
in March of this year. An NLRB
hearing was held in May, leading to
the election order.

N. Y. Tedmsters Win Major
Demands As Bosses Split

New York (FP)-New York truck
drivers poured through a wide-open
breach in the ranks of the employers
Sept. II on the road to victory in
their 17-day strike.
First big break in the strike, which
tied up all general trucking in the
biggest city in the world, came as a
wildly enthusiastic membership meet
ing of Local 807, international Broth
erhood of Teamsters, voted to sign
separate contracts with some 200 in
dividual operators on a formula, Of
fered by the H. C. Bohack food chain,
which meets all major demands of the
strikers.
Although two major groups of
long-haul carriers, which operate
some 10000 trucks, still held out
against settlement, union officials
predicted that signing of contracts
with Bohack, the Master Truckmen of
America, comprising 200 members
who operate 5000 trucks locally, and
more than a score of, other firms
would start stampede among other
employers to SETTLE.
The Bohack settlement, whic h
meets all the major demands of the
strikers, provides:
IA flat $7.40 weekly increase.
2.-Forty-four hours pay for 40
hours work on the present scale of
$55.
3.-Time- e-and-a-half overtime for
work on Saturday with aguaranteed
minimum of four hours pay.
4.-One week vacation for 125 days
of work a year, two weeks for IT'S
days work.
5.-Elimination of supplementary
work rules.
The wage settlement will mean an
average increase of $3.50 for s.
day week and SIT for la-day week,
the men were told by Economist
David Kaplan who, along with Inter-
national Rep. Michael Cashal, brought
The potters herald. [volume] (East Liverpool, Ohio) 1899-1982, 1946-09-26

the international unions approval of
the proposed settlement.
Elimination Of work rules, which
imposed slavedriving conditions on
the workers, was considered major
victory. While the new agreement
continues arbitration, the men were
assured that it opens the way for
ousting the industry's impartial
chairman, Hugh E. Sheridan, who is
also big trucking operator.
That the strikers, who packed the
hall, stood in the aisles and overflow
ed onto the speakers platform, would
approve signing of separate contracts
was evident from the outset Of the So
minute meeting.
Cheers and shouts of "Let 'em roll"
rent the air as Local President John
Strong presented the Bohack proposal
and told the strikers that drivers who
went back to work under the agree
ment would have to be allowed to
move their trucks.
Strong got an innovation when he
rediculed employers claims that they
had no responsible union officials to
deal with. "This is no kangaroo
court" Strong declared. "This is a
democratic organization. You men tell
us what to do. And we say to the
press and the radio that if the mem
bership is in revolt, they're in revolt
against the employers, not their lead
ers."
AS the thunderous voice vote ap-
proving the settlement signified the
end of the meeting, scores of team
sters scrambled onto the platform,
grabbed Strong and tossed him into
the air to the cheers of the member
ship. The strikers walked out Of the
hall studying the text of the Bohack
agreement, exultantly slapping each
other on the back.
"WeIl win, the others will have to
sign now," was heard on all sides.
Joining Local 807 in approval of the
Bohack settlement were two smaller
locals involved in the strike. Locals
SIG and 282 both had agreed to ac-
cept whatever settlement was worked
out by 807, which covers IS per cent
of the city's general trucking.
Trucks were expected to begin roll
ing the same day and union spokes-
men predicted deliveries of food,
medicine, newsprint and hundreds of
items in daily household and personal
use would soon be back to normal
The two holdout groups had a meet
i,,c caLoI,,1nI 1o{o ~
which they were expected to revise
their strategy in view of the employ
ers' split.

Chrysler Refuses To
Reopen Wage Issue

Detroit (FP)-The Chrysler Corp
formally rejected the United Auto
Workers demand for reopening of the
wage issue in a note to the union
Aug. %.
The UAW had requested reexamin-
alton of wages under terms of the
Chrysler contract which permits such
discussion on 60 days notice. The
union contended rising living costs re-
quired additional wage increases be-
yond the 18c hourly raises won in
January.
Chrysler labor relations director
Robert w. Conder in his reply said
the company did not think "there
should be another round of wage in
creases at this time or another round
of strikes"

scotched by the pressmen, who de-
clared no press crews were available
for such work except Herald press
men who would under no circum-
stances work during the Herald lock-
out.
On Sept. 16 the guild launched
Operation 2, campaign to mobilize
public support. The first day, strik-
ers marched through downtown Los
Angeles. The second day, their wives
and children, some of them in baby
carriages, paraded. The third day,
some 100 veterans of World Wars
and II marched in uniform with their
battle decorations, distributing leaf
lets to the public pointing out that
Hearst helped kill OPA, but won't
raise workers pay"
A Citizens Committee including $50
motion picture stars, writers, artists
and professionals have announced
their support of the guilds demands
and brought pressure on the Hearst
management for a settlement.
Representatives of the top Hearst
national management have joined the
negotiations and Guild International
President Milton Murray and Vice
President Joseph Coils have flown to
Los Angeles to support local officers
in the parleys.
Under the eye of federal concilia-
tor Harry Malcolm, Hearst has begun
to yield on key points of the az pend
ing contract issues and has already
granted the best seniority clause the
guild has yet won on any paper ma
tionally. Under it, the oldest man re-
ceives promotion into higher va
cancy unless he is proved incompetent
and a laid-off worker receives full
seniority when rehired. The guild al
so won six paid holidays instead of
the present five.
Wages remain the main outstand-
ing issue with the management offer
ing a 10 per cent hike in answer to
the guilds demand for 40 per cent to
bring highest editorial and circulation
workers to a 500 weekly top and
advertising employees to $115.
The national guild has placed the
full weight of it's $4,000 strike fund
behind the Herald strikers and is pre-
pairing to raise $50,C00 month more.
Representatives of the five printing
trades affected are sitting in as OBJ
servers on negotiations. In return for
their support, the guild has joined the
5-month picketline the printers have
thrown around the 25-acre Pacific
Press, one of the largest printing
plants in the country, which will print
the west coast editions of Fortune,
Readers Digest and other national
publications.
Under the joint pressure, Pacific
Press has again resumed negotiations
with the strikers and its general man.
ager has flown to see Pressmen's
Union President George l.. Berry in
Georgia to put final touches on a
settlement.

Pres, Orders
New Wage
Price Study

w dSnlnRLOn tF "A new study OF
federal wage-price policy designed to
permit allowances for the sharply in
creased cost Of living has been order
ed by President Truman, the Office
Of War Mobilization & Reconversion
announced.
Speculation around the Truman
order was directed at the Wage Stabi-
lization Board, which was reversed
Gently in its position on the maritime
wage crisis when it rejected increases
for AFL seamen. Sterilization Direct
or John r. Steelman amended the
working rules to permit the pay
boosts.
One theory here is that although
WSB will be retained temporarily
the tripartite composition will be eli
minated to be replaced by a board
consisting entirely Of public repre-
5entatives.
Industry representative have re-
commended such change, but there
has been no official reaction from
labor other than vigorous protest
against WSB's action in the maritime
situation.
Any revision, according to Steel
man, must reflect the II per cent
higher living cost that has resulted
since the present policy was evolved
last February. This boost added to
previous BIS estimates shows tina,
living costs are now 43 per cent high
er than in January, 1941, but most
labor circles are unwilling to concedt
that figure, arguing that the cost is

Cream And Health

Research workers at Massachusetts,
State College recently added more evil
dence to explode the old idea that ice
cream is luxury or party food. Pro-
fessor Arthur D. Holmes and his associ-
ates reporting in a recent issue of the New
England Medical Journal state that this
favorite dairy food often does not receive
its proper recognition as a valuable source
of protein, fats, carbohydrates, minerals
and vitamins.
Tests were run by these investigators
on coffee, maple nut and vanilla ice cream
All were found to be excellent sources of
Vitamin A, carotene and riboflavin.

dividual well-being. The reference here
is to the opportunity that is offered young
America to join the regular military and
naval establishments with view to Sc
lecting such an occupation as career.
Even though more than half million
have volunteered for regular army service
within recent months the goal of 1,6OO,-
600 men before June 80 of this year is
far from being reached. Our friend Uncle
Sam has direct need for that many young
men to do the job that faces our country
within the immediate future
The young man who enters service now
for three-year enlistment can do pretty
we'll for himself. While being paid he
can study one or more of the 200 skills or
trades in preparation for later years; and
at the termination of his enlistment he has
the assurance that he can continue his
studies in the college of his own selection
for four years. In the service Of course
he gets well paid and is entitled to thirty
day furlough each year.
The advantages Of life in the services
are not 70 be overlooked for those who are
not now prepared for some definite career
Or who are undecided as to their course
of action in the immediate future. There
is also the thought that youth is nice
time of life to get in some travel over the
wide world.
Under the new recruitment act the reg
ular can establish nice career for himself
with possibility of retirement on solid
income at an age when most men in civil
ian life are still trying to make ends meet.
For the lad who can take advantage of
Uncle Sans offer, this recruitment pro-
gram has much to recommend it.
