MAcn|MSTS HEAD FOR

CONTROLS

Washington-FP-If congress is un-
willing to control prices, it must re-
move the incentive to high prices by
taxing away high profits, Pres. Harvey
Brown of the Init. Assn. Of Machinists
(unaffiliated) stated recently. He
urged restoration of excess profits
taxes on business.
Pointing out that business is having
a lush time, both laying away reserves
for the future and piling up big profits,
Brown warned that the high prices
making this possible threaten Amer
ica's efforts to save the European
economy through the Marshall plan.
The working people of this country
are entitled to share in this golden
prosperity as well as the corporations
he said. THE wage earners have as
much right as the large corporations
to lay aside nest eggs against future
uncertainty. Yet savings by wage
earners decreased 45To between 1945
and 1916. Savings Of the American

"A recent episode in New Jersey
may illustrate where the real cause
OF price initiation lies" reports the
NFU board meeting, held recently in
Denver.
New Jersey members Of the Farm
ers Union recently took 400 crates of
farm produce to the gates Of a big fac.
tory. They offered 1t to the workers
coming out the gates for 40 per cent
more than had been offered for the
same products by commission houses
The factory workers bought every
case. The price they paid was only
one-third what they had been paying
for the same product.
This is simple proof that the
blame for initiation lies not with farm
ers, nor with labor, but right where

that for the third time since
1887, Lewis 500, 900 coal dig
gers would assume an unaffili-
ated status.
There was no explanation Of
the action in the name of the
UNIV Gilman executive board other
than it was unanimously approved
but a spokesman for the miners put
it this way:
There is on reason why the UNIV
should sacrifice itself to 20 along with
an umbrella Of a labor movement that
merely protects political acquiescence
of those who are too afraid TO fight"
The reference, Of course, was to
the AFL's acceptance of the non-com-
munist and financial statement re-
quirements OF the Taft Hartley act
which Lewis and the UNIV flatly re
fused to sign.
At the same time the UNIV board
selected Sec. Treas. Thomas Kennedy
to be vice president, succeeding the
late John O'Leary. and chose John
Owens to succeed Kennedy as sec
retary-treasurer.
Kennedy has served the UNIV as
secretary-treasurer since Green re.
signed to assume the top ALL office
after the death Of Samuel Gompers
He is 60 years old.
Owens, who has been president OF
District 6 since 1885 in the Ohio fields
and served as sub-district president
there from 1921 to 1925. then rose tC
vice president in 1899 and became
district president in 1885.

ARE YOU LOSING honey
on YOUR SOCIAL
SECURITY

One person in twelve In the Rocky
Mountain tSates lost money because
OF failure to file claims with the Blu
reau OF Old-Age and Survivors lnsur-
ance at the proper time, c. Ben Reavis'
manager OF the Social Security field
office at Butte announced today. Based
on a study Of claims filed by 1,134 in
dividuals. "a persons. or S.3 per cent,
lost amounts OF cash varying from $3l
to $4,000 each. One retired worker
and his wife lost $4,000. OF the per-
sons losing money. 70 percent were
retired workers. 20 percent wives
and children Of retired workers, and
10 percent survivors Of insured work
ers. The total cash loss amounted to
1928, 1853.
Persons suffering the greatest loss
were the insured workers themselves.
| Mr.. Reavis stated. Eleven out OF
every hundred insured workers who
file dclaims took an average loss of
s345 each. Wives and children who
failed to file on time lost an average
of 1910 each. while survivors lost
$153 each.
Various reasons, such as, the worker
thought he had to retire permanently,
did not think he had worked long
enough, or was not old enough, were
given for failure to file claims on time.
The only answer to our problem to
full payment rests with the worker or
his survivors. Mr.. Reavis urged every
worker in covered employment to cor
tact his office at age 65. He also
pointed out that it would be wise for
Surviving dependent widows, children,
and parents to contact the Social Sc
curity Administration field office i'm
mediately following the death of a
worker.
The Butte field office serves six
southwestern Montana counties: Madi-
son. Beaverhead. Deer Lodge, Powell,
