Farley Refuses 10 Predict
Party SIates in '48 Vote
by the A,,ocioted Press

MIAMI, Fa.. July 15,-James A.
Farley, former chairman Of the
Democratic National Committee
said last night it was "too early to
make a prediction on the l948 ma
tional elections.
He did acknowledge that Truman
will get the Democratic nomination
if he wants it. I don't have the
slightest idea who the vice presi-
Dental nominee will be. That de-
pends on the fall elections"
Mr. Farley had even less to say
about the Republican ticket except
that he was convinced Harold Stas-
sen of Minnesota would not head it.
The determining factor in the
1948 elections will be the economic
condition of the country at that
time, Mr. Farley asserted. If it's bad,
Mr.. Truman will catch the blame as
Mr.. Hoover did in 1882; if it's good
he'll benefit,

Print Shop Operators
To Reject Manbeck S
Proposal for Meeting

A proposal by Jesse B. Manbeck
president OF Columbia Typograph-
ical Union, that commercial print
shop employers meet with him to
iron out their contractual difficulties
will be rejected by the Graphic Arts
Association, a spokesman said today
The long dispute over wages and
working conditions was tossed back
into the hopper yesterday when the
union voted, 1852 to $50, to reject
settlement terms worked out between
the GAA and Elmer Brown, vice
president of the International Typo
graphical Union.
Mr.. Manbeck said he would ask
the 80 GAA shop owners and %
other union shopheads to negotiate
with him, probably next Tuesday.
But the GAA retorted that it had
been dealing with the ITU and
would continue to until the inter-
national officially Withdrew from
negotiations.
y Offered 34-Cent Boost.
Five hundred commercial printers
were offered wage increases of "a
cents an hour in the agreement
drawn up by the GAA and Mr.
Brown. The increase would have
raised the hourly wage from $1.53 to
$l.87. The proposal was submitted
to referendum of the entire union
membership, including Government
Printing Office and newspaper
printers.
Heaviest opposition to the propo-
sition came from GPO members,
who voted against it, 846 to 315
Newspaper employees opposed the
terms, 274 to 189, and commercial
printers, the only ones directly af-
fected, turned down the issue, 232
to 1865.
Opposition was expected from the
Government printers, who have re-
opened negotiations on their own
agreement. They are asking 1925
an hour.
The ITU stepped into the local
picture automatically when the local
asked for strike sanction severaI
weeks ago. Under ITU law, its rep
resentative, Mr.. Brown, superseded

Park swimming pools in Washing

Park swimming pools in Washing
ton receive the highest sanitary
rating given by the United States
Public Health Service, park and
Government Services, Inc, officials
said today.
Harry S. Wender, chairman of
the District Recreation Board,
charged recently that six park pools
operated by Government Services
are insanitary. He referred to
shocking" shortcomings in con-
struction and maintenance facilities
at the pools.
A majority of his board has been
campaigning since March to have
operation of the pools handed over
to the recreation department.
Harry T. Thompson, assistant
superintendent of the Office of Ma
tional Capital Parks, local field Of
flee of the National Park Service,
said Mr.. Wender's remarks were
based on preseason survey OF the
pools.
Mr.. Thompson said the presea-

request to show what deficiencies
and sanitary conditions needed to
be put right before the swimming
season.
Weekly surveys during the sum-
mer resulted in ratings of 1000 for
the pools, Mr.. Thompson said. They
were made by the District Health
Department and reviewed by the
Health Service, he added.
Criticism Of the pools by Mr.
Wender earlier this year was aimed
at alleged lack of service to the
public. Under recreation depart
ment operation, he and his board
claimed, additional service in the
form of longer hours and more free
periods would result.
The pools-Banneker, Francis
Mckinley, Takoma, Potomac Park
and Anacostia-now are operated
under a f1ve-year lease with Gov
ernment Services, Inc. The lease
contains a renewal clause which
takes effect if pool operation proves
satisfactory to the Secretary of the
Interior. Efforts Of the Recreation
Board to break the lease failed last

Mr.. Manbeck, however, said he as
president still may represent the
union in negotiations. He recalled
that q settlement on the contract
just terminated was signed two years
ago when rs employers met in an
all-day session with him and the
Scale Committee.
Mr.. Manbeck said he has notified
Woodruff Randolph, ITU president,
of the outcome Of last nights meet
ing. 1t is probable that Mr.. Brown,
or another high union Official, will
arrive soon to attempt another
agreement acceptable to both sides.
In rejecting yesterdays offer, most
printers thought they should have
at least $500 an hour and working
benefits which the employers had
tentatively agreed before Mr.. Brown
stepped in, Mr.. Manbeck said. The
association had agreed to six paid
holidays instead of four and to a
better vacation plan than Mr.. Brown
settled for, the union president said.
