Sunday night, the CLIO dance was
on. The exhibition given by the
Elks drum corps was really fine.
1t was to help the drum corps 90
to Buffalo, N. Y.
Albert Jones was to put on the
exhibition with the corps, but it
seems that he had an accident at
work which makes him ole Grip.
KiYi Perry is back and looking
swell. Here's hoping that you stay
straight-the Navy makes men,
they say.
1t seems that the girls are going
to have their say about you boys
now, so be prepared for the say
so of your better halves!
Jackie Cuff says: well, my opin-
ion Of boys is that they are swell
to an extent, but you find very few
who will go steady with Mime
apolis girls. Yet when a boy from
out-of-tOwn tries to date one of us,
the Minneapolis boys give him a
hard way to go! The boys are so
hard to please, and don't cooperate
with the girls as much as they
should. | hope no hard feelings will
be felt on the boys part"
Joyce Clayton says: "Oh, golly,
let me see-the boys are all right
except that they try the same line
from the time they are six until
the time they are twenty-One! Some
boys respect girls, some don't.
When a girl passes a gang of boys,
she almost has to pray that she
will not be insulted by what she
hears, or by what is said to her.
They all try to be so masterful and
pretty at the same time, but all
in all, think that boys are getting
so that they are trying to be more
respectful, thank goodness!
Louise Cuff says: | think boys
should appreciate girls a little
more. As far as | know, Mime
apolis boys are cute and fine, but
many Of them know it. Some of the
older boys who think fellows ages
l6 to 10 are simple, could learn a
lot from them about respect.
Well, boys, you have heard what
a few girls have to say, so what
say we try and please those who
can add so much to the success
of you and me-our girls!

Labor, Veterans Scorn Income
Limit In CT Bill Revision

| "penalized' by canceling allowances
to the veteran. He said the ClO Vet
erans' Committee would take action
at the next session of Congress to
correct these shortcomings in the
bill.
Legislative Director Chat Paterson
of the American Veterans Committee
in a statement to Federated Press
criticized the income ceilings as "se-
verely handicapping the program for
veterans in training for skilled indus
trial jobs and arbitrarily confining
the veteran trainee to limited IN
come.
"The on-the-job training program
is one of the more important OF the
veterans benefits provided under the
CT bill and we feel that the income
limitation to SITS for single and $500
for married veterans will discourage
many from entering the program"
A spokesman for the American
Federation of Machinists (unaffiliat-
ed told FTP "this cut will hit great
many apprentice machinists, especial
ly since most of our trainees are
given credit for some skill acquired
before entering service or while IN
service, and start their training at
two-thirds pay. The two-year tram
ing limit will eventually affect all OF
them."

Strikers Named
In Domoge Suit

East st. Louis, Ill. (FP)-The
Monsanto Chemica Co. tossed legal
stink bomb at it's striking employees
here in the shape of $3.50, 900 dam
age suit filed in Federal District
Court against the international
Chemical Workers Union and 100 in
dividual union members.
The action followed a petition filed
by the company asking for an injunc-
ton against the Unions picketing,
which has kept the firms East st.
Louis and Monsanto plants shut down
since July Is. Claim in the damage
suit was that the picket line prevent
ed the company from giving proper
care to equipment and chemicals in
side the plants.
Monsanto, which holds a big piece
of the atomic bomb know-how, also
apparently knows all the anti-union
tricks. In addition to Local 16 and II
on strike here, 800 members of Local
81 have been on strike since July "a
at the company's Everton, Mass,
plant. Union leaders charge that the
firm is trying to break up the GNU
locals in all of it's plants throughout
the country.

Bakeries Say No
Dough, Boxers
Sow No Bread

Philadelphia (FP) - Three million
Philadelphians were hit in the bread
basket for the fifth consecutive day
since eight major bakeries rejected
wage demands of Local 6, Bakery &
Confectionery Workers international
Union (AFL), and compelled the
$3.50 members to strike Aug. 10.
The stoppage halted production of
one million loaves of bread day, re-
ducing the bread output to some 5O0,-
0C0 loaves baked by small neighbor-
hood bakeries. AS a result stores
have been rationing bread half loaf
to a customer.
Sole strike issue was the unions
rock-bottom demand of a zoe hourly
wage increase. 1t had earlier drop
ped attempts to obtain five-day
week and reduced its original de-
mands for a 30c raise.
The companies unanimously reject
ed the proposals, making a counter
offer of 16c. Present wages are 84c
for men, 56c for women.
The eight companies affected have
13 plants in the area. They are Frei-
hofer, General, Fleischmann, Park
way and Mees in Philadelphia and
Spaulding, Stroehmann Bros. and
Continental in nearby Norristown.
Business Agent Raymond Boiling
said that General and Continental will
soon begin negotiations in other
plants throughout the country and
are seeking to establish the l6c maxi
mum raise as a precedent.
Sixteen hundred bakery drivers and
statesmen, members of Local 463, In
tarnational Brotherhood of Teamsters
(AFL), are respecting the picket
lines.

Washington (FP) = The income
limit provisions of S. 2477, bill set
ting standards for on-the-j job trainee:
under the CT Bill of Rights, were
sharply attacked here Aug. II and /.
by labor and veteran spokesmen after
President Truman signed the meas
ure Aug. 8. The bill passed Congress.
in the legislative rush at the end OF
the session.
The bill is supposedly aimed a
rescuing the program from slow star
vation in states not willing to appro-
pirate funds to pay their share OF
the freight, and stopping penny
pinching employers from riding the
federal subsistence program as low
wage vehicle. Abuses in the system
and state neglect of proper standards
had been scored in statements by
Veterans Administrator Omar Brad
ley and by Major Gen. G. B. Erskine,
re-training and unemployment direc-
tor, shortly before Congress ad-
journed.
When Congress finished corrective
legislation, however, the bill carried
a provision limiting the total income
wages plus subsistence allotment
to SITS for single trainees and $500
for married.
Broken down, this limitation means
that by the time married worker
has reached a wage of about S46 a
week, he may no longer draw nickel
from the federal job-training fund.
The figure for the single man is about
$40 week. Put in hourly terms, the
top limit for the married man is
about $1.15, and around 81 for the
single worker.
Once the trainee's wares plus sub
sistence reaches the legal limit, each
new wage raise means a cut in his
government check Calculation shows
that the trainee gets no raise in total
earnings once he passes 65c an hour
if married, or Soc an hour single.
This drastic cut in veteran-trainee
pay was termed "joker" in the law
by CIO Veterans Director Clinton S.
Golden, who said "this proviso de-
stroys the usefulness of the act for
many veterans"
"The idea behind the subsistence
allowances in the original CT BILL" he
said, twas to permit veterans to pur-
sue course of study without impair
ing their earning power. If ceilings
at SITS and 5000 are established,
many of these servicemen are rele-
gated to inferior living standards.
as is true that there has been con-
siderable abuse on the matter Of
wages, but the abuse does not justify
4 remedy which would err as far on
The other extreme and would adverse
v affect thousands of legitimate vet
eran employees. Surely a veteran
IS entitled to earn more than $175 a
month for full time employment"
He cited figures from current
wages in the steel industry to show
he new proviso almost cuts the al
otment program out of the. industry.

year limit on training programs and

Council Supports
PefriIIo In Lea
Act Challenge

Chicago. - The American Fedora
tion Of Labor's Executive Council, il
session here, threw its full supper
behind the challenge raised by james
C. Petrillo, president of the Ameri
can Federation of Musicians (AFL)
on the constitutionality of the "anti
labor" Lea Act.
Mr.. Petrillo, arrested for alleged
violation of the newly-enacted law, i.
awaiting outcome of his case in the
courts and has announced that, il
necessary, he will carry the issue tt
the Supreme Court.
In a formal statement the AFT
Executive Council said:
The Executive Council of the
American Federation of Labor has
considered the question of the Lea
Act and the prosecution instituted by
the Government against James G.
Petrillo, president of the American
Federation of Musicians, for alleged
violation of that law.
1t is the unanimous conviction OF
the Executive Council that this
statute represents the lowest point in
our history of national labor legisla-
ton. Never before has any Congress
50 arbitrarily and completely struck
down the basic right to strike fol-
plainly lawful purposes. Never before
has any Congress so openly INDUCED
in such fragrant discrimination in
favor of a powerful industry, the
broadcasting industry, and in unfair
opposition to the workers, the Amer
lean musicians, who made possible
the phenomenal success of that in
dustry. Never before has any Con-
gress manifested such wanton disre-
gard for simple economic justice and
for the cherished, elemental rights
preserved by our Constitution.
While the Lea Act, with gross un-
fairness, singles cut for attack a sin
gle union in a single industry, it con-
tains principles and imposes restric-
tions which, if upheld, would crush
the freedom of all American workers
and destroy the American trade union
movement.
The American Federation OF Labor
will back up the efforts of the Amer
lean Federation of Musicians to have
this discriminatory law adjudged un-
constitutional
The potters herald. [volume] (East Liverpool, Ohio) 1899-1982, 1946-08-22

prices and wages existing at the enc
of the 60-day period from the date
of our wage reopening notification to
the Chrysler Corp.
'If the Price Decontrol Board, the
OPA and the Secretary of Agricul-
ture have not taken vigorous steps
to restore effective price control on
food, clothing and other basic neces-
sites, we shall demand adjustments
in our wage structure necessary to
compensate for increases in the cost
of living"
The JAW action came the day
after a united statement by several
hundred labor leaders had denounced
as a fraud" stabilization program
(which means .curbs on wage in
creases and soaring price increases"
"The JAW fully supports the pro-
gram on price and wage stabilization
adopted by the unions officers" the
board said.
Pointing to the fight against infla-
tion as the ajor front in the union 8
battle to protect its members living
standards, the auto workers said they
would call on civic groups to stage
buyer strikes and organized protests
against profiteering.
They will also seek Cooperation of
farmers against the packers, prof.
teers and middlemen who, by buying
cheap at the farm and selling dear
in the city, profiteer on the nations
food supply and make both the farm
ers and the consumers their victims"
Another JAW goal will be ex-
posure of government agencies
which yield to the demands of prof.
teering industries" and "those gov
ernment officials who fail in their re-
sponsibility to the people"
Consumer action and political ac-
tion must be linked together in the
fight against inflation," the state
ment said. "A betrayal Of the Amer
lean people by Congress caused the
imitation against which they must
now mobilize and protect themselves.
We must make it clear to the people
that imitation is here because Con-
gress voted for initiation"
Inhation-voting Congressman, said
the UAW, are "faithless public serv-
ants. They betrayed us-they must
be retired"
Claiming that ''mass productive
power must be matched by mass pur-
chasing power" the UAW board said
its task is ito increase real wages by
insisting that wage increases be paid
out of the higher profits of industry
made possible by the economies of
full production and improved tech
nology-rand not passed on to the
consumer in higher prices"
