can Legion will be outlawed fol
once and for all when the u. S
Supreme Court rules on the Is

make final ruling on Hershey's
Interpretation of the Selective
Service Act, already declared in
valid by three courts, which per-
mits an employer to discharge a
worker and replace him with q
veteran who has less accumulat-
ed seniority including his time
in the service.
Both CIO and AFL have won
test cases in lower courts. The
Supreme Court ruling will be
made In the case of Abraham

gain his job with the Sullivan
Drydock & Repair Corp. which

tions of job rights, loans, educa-
ton, apprenticeship allowances,
pensions, disability pay, insur-
Iance and other problems.

vate, costing over $4,000 for
homes and $4,000 for CONNER
cial buildings.
Even under the present ma
terials ALLEGATION plan. only a
small fraction of the homes be-
ing built are in the price range
that veterans can afford. The
Civilian Production Administra-
ton, in a summary of the first
six weeks under the plan, indi-
cate that only 31% of the rental
applications authorized were for
homes renting at 5000 or less.
Only 1857 of the homes for
sale were priced at under SIS, ,499.
President Truman last week
signed the second appropriation
bill to provide an additional
100000 emergency temporary
structures for veterans housing.
The bill authorizes use of $780,
600, 900 to remodel barracks and
temporary war housing, and to

Jewish Relief

NEW YORK, April 8.-LPA)
National CIO and AFL lead
ers this week will help launch
a $1,000,000 drive by the Jew
ish Labor Committee to finance
its work of rescue, relief and
reconstruction in Europe and its
fight against racism, intolerance,
and anti-Semitism in this coun-
try.
AFL President William Green
and Sam Eubanks, executive
vice-president of the American
Newspaper Guild CIO, will
speak, together with Atty. Gen.
Tom Clark, at a discussion din
ner marking the opening of the
campaign.
cit is the purpose of the Jew
ish Labor Committee, which re-
presents 100000 organ lied
workers affiliated with both the
AFL and CIO to meet to our
the crying demands of
the first and worst victims of
Hitlerism," declared JIG Chair
man Adolph Held, "that they be
restored to self-respect and the
right to a free and equal life. In
this country, too, we have been
engaged in an intensive educa-
tional campaign against the divi-
sionist forces of discrimination
and religious and racial bigotry.
Part of the funds which are
netted in this years campaign
will be allocated to strengthen
the forces of decency and human
brotherhood in American COM
munal life. We are confident
that labor will, as in prior years
respond generously to our en-
deavors in these crucial posts

To Pick Union

CINCINNATI, April 8 (LPA)
A nation wide referendum to
determine whether more than
5000 members of the Interna-
tional Union of United Brewery,
Flour, Cereal and Soft Drink
Workers will affiliate with the
CIO will be held in the near fu-
ture, it was decided last week
by an International Conference
attended by 2O4 delegates rep
resenting 1877 local unions.
The Brewery Workers with.
drew from the AFL as the re-
suit of longstanding and uu-
resolved jurisdiction d S p u e
with the international Brother
hood of Teamsters. In announc-
ing the referendum the unions
general executive board recalled
that "our membership by an
overwhelming majority rejected
the decision of the AFL on three
different occasions"
The AFL will not appear on
the ballot. Under the unions
constitution 80 days are set aside
for, free discussion of the SUBJ

Attempt To
Wreck USES
WASHINGTON, April 8 {

WASHINGTON, April 8 (LPA)
- A campaign by reactionary
employers supported by sections
of the Chamber of Commerce
and National Association OF
Manufacturers to wreck the cur
rent job-finding program of the
u. S. Employment Service was
disclosed last week.
The Illinois G, of c. was re-
vealed as one of the leaders in
a concerted attempt to sabotage
the efforts of USES to have en-
ployers list all available posi-
tions instead of the lower-paid
and unskilled jobs.
Contention of the c. of C..
and NAM reactionaries Is that
the USES program Is merely an
other device to keep the service
under federal control.

Senate
Moves On


WASHINGTON, April 8 -
(LPA) - The Wagner-Ellender-
Taft Bill, calling for a national
program to construct 100000
homes, won the unanimous ap-
proval of the Senate Banking &
Currency Committee last week.
1t was the second successful
move to provide speedy solution
to the nations critical housing
crisis. On the previous day the
Committee voted thru the pro-
gram of Housing Expediter Will
son Wyatt which contemplates
the emergency construction of
2,700000 dwellings for veterans.
Price ceilings on existing
homes and building lots, cut out
of the legislation by the House,
were restored. The Senate will
take action on the Wyatt legisla-
ton first and then the Wagner
Ellender-Taft bill, both of which
had vigorous backing from all
sections Of labor.
Provides Housing
Designed to take up where the
emergency program leaves off,
the Wagner-Ellender- Taft pro-
posal calls for both rural and
urban housing, for public prof.
ects for low-income groups, pri-
vate construction, slum clear
ance, and research in new ma
terials and building methods.
Four major Improvements in
the House version were made in
the emergency program includ-
ing the price ceilings and a gov
ernment-guaranteed market for
new building materials and pre-
Fabricated homes. The commit
tee okayed $60O,OOO,00O fund
for materials subsidies that had
been rejected by the House.
Opposed by sections of the
realtors and construction lob
bies, the legislation was also at
tackled by Sen. Homer E. Cape
hart (R. Ind.) and others who
to renew their at
tempts to reduce he size of the
100000 fund when the bill
reaches the Senate floor.
Wyatt declared, II am happy.
hope the Senate can sell the
House on subsidies"

Surplus Goods
Rot In Pacific

WASHINGTON, - April g.
(LPA)-More than SIS billion
worth of Army property over
seas may have to be junked or
abandoned, War Dept. officials
now admit. No estimate has
been made of how many addi-
tional billions of Navy property
may meet the same fate.
Much of the surplus consists
of munitions, tanks, planes, bulls
dozers, jeeps and other types of
vehicles. In the Pacific alone
material of this type valued at
81 00,000,00O must be disposed
of.
Nevertheless there are mil
lions of dollars worth of other
equipment that coud be brought
back to the u. S. and converted
to civilian use. Warehouses on
Okinawa, which was scheduled
to be the jumping off point for
the japanese invasion, bulge
with such items as 100000 feet
of wire cable, more than 2,000,-
600 flashlight batteries, 5000
trucks, hundreds of tractors,
cranes and bulldozerS.
Despite a shortage of many
of these items in the u. S. and
a desperate need for them in
China and the Philippines great
quantities of these surpluses will
be left to rot and rust. u. S.
manufacturers fear that il these
machines were sold In the u. S.
or abroad it would cut severely
into their markets and conse-
their profits.
Sharp criticism of the "vacil-
lation and lack of decision"
shown by the Army and Navy
in disposing of surplusses abroad
was registered by the Special
Senate Committee Investigating
National Defense. The war agen-
cies have made "a confused
muddle" of the situation, said
The senator's, charging that the
sale of surplus materials to
Great Britain was "a far poorer
bargain" than similar sales after
The last war.

by the Citizens Committee
Against the Income-Payroll tax
and the United Toledo Commit
tee saw several hundred voters
turn out to hear the last minute
drive of the opposing sides for
vote support.
Attorney Harry Kirkland,
chairman of the Committee
Against the Income-Payroll tax
was the principal speaker at a
mass meeting held at Moose Hall
on Monday night of this week
which was attended by about
400 persons.
Speak Against Tax
Mr.. Kirkland, DR.. E. F. New
ton and Richard Gosser were
the principal speakers at Mon
days meeting and voiced their
opposition to the tax and city
administration. Mr.. GoSse
warned the city that if the tax
was going to make Toledo like
Philadelphia where the tax
originated that the workers of
this city would not tolerate
clubs in the hands of policemen
on the picket lines.
Last minute radio talks were
given by Mr.. Gosser and Mr..
Disable leaders on the opposing
sides over local stations on Mon
day night with each side ex-
pressing its confidence Of vic
tory.
Also speaking last n G h t
against the tax was Councilman
Tom Burke, one of the two
members of City Council who
voted against the ordinance. Mr..
Burke repeated his contention
that the resolution he had intro
duced into Council last fall for
a study of the entire taxing
structure was the plan which
would have provided the exemp-
tions which labor leaders asked
for in the tax ordinance.
Await The Verdict
Thousands of interested Tole-
do citizens, City Council, the ad-
ministration, newspaper, labor,
real estate and corporate inter
ests are waiting with interest
and concern for the result of
today's vote.
Statements issued by Mr..
Gosser and Mr., Disable prior to
the election indicate that what
ever the results may be the var
ious groups in Toledo must work
in closer harmony and coopera-
ton If Toledo is to solve its
financial problems.
Bettings odds at the last min
ute were strongly in favor of
the defeat of the tax with no
takers except those whose in
stincts led them to believe the
tax would be defeated.
Political experts believe that
this will be the largest turnout
of voters ever TO take part in a
special election and predict that
the tax ordinance will be de-
feated by a close vote.

Wagner's Statement
Wagner, pointing out that in
the past workmen's compensa-
ton, income tax legislation, un-
employment insurance and free
employment offices had been de-
nounced as socialiStic, said, eve
have lived to see these new pro-
grams eventually accepted as
part of our basic system OF
American freedom and democ-
racy, even by the very groups
who first opposed them"
Wagner gave detailed analy-
sis of the bill which would au-
thorize government expendi-
lures of about $50,0O0,0OO for a
comprehensive health system,
compulsory health insurance,
grants for public health and
child care and to the various
states for medical research.
DingelI Condemns AMH
Dingell condemned the AMA's
propaganda agency the Natl.
Physicians Committee which he
said subjected the proposed bill
to more willful misrepresenta-
ton and misinformation than
any other piece of legislation /
have ever seen presented in all
my 13 years in Congress"
The Michigan Congressman
recalled that the ANA had
fought even voluntary group
health plans and had been con-
victed of violating the antitrust
laws in its attempts to suppress
a cooperative health plan in
