real inquisition by Counsel Nc
Cam - who distinguished himself
last month by punching the late
Joseph Padway, AFL counsel, at
Hollywood hearing of the Labor
Committee.
McCann seemed intent on smok
ing out the terms of the legal regu-
lations the Labor Dept will use to
administer the portal-to-portal pro-
visions amending the Fair Labor
Standards Act, passed last May by
Congress. These are still in pre-
paration, and are earegly awaited
by employers who want to avoid
suits for unpaid overtime and
wages.
Committee Chairman Samuel Nc
Connell (R., Pa.) and Rep. Wint
Smith (R., Kansas.) both pressed
Gen. Fleming to explain his con-
tention that the promoters of the
original Fair Labor Standards Act
"saw in this Act a method of as
sisting primarily the great body of
organized workers in need of some
minimum wage legislation :. ]
found it to have been enacted with
a humanitarian end in view and
to benefit that segment of the pop
ulation most sorely in need of pro-
lection"
At one point, when Fleming OBJ
jected that low wages were not
necessarily part of the free.en-
terprise profit system, Smith in
terrupted to complain, you're get
ting back to the humanitarian idea
of law" Answered Fleming: II
think that's a good idea.'
Industry "consultants" and eco
nomists took up the majority of the
time during the first week of the
hearings, with the first labor wit
nesses appearing during the week
beginning Oct. 26.

DISTRICT so QUESTION
REFERRED TO COUNCIL

San Francisco-The AFL con-
vention voted to refer to the
Executive Council for considera-
tion and action various com
plants against the organizing
activities of District so of the
United Mine Workers of Amer
lea.
The action came as the result
of resolutions introduced before
the convention by several unions
which claimed that District so
had infringed upon the jurisdic-
tional rights customarily enjoy
ed by them.
Following debate over the ma
jority and minority reports sub
mitted by the Committee on
Resolutions, the convention vot-
ed in favor Of an amendment
which resulted in the decision to
refer the matter to the Execu-
tive Council.

is to meet the crisis by voluntary
measures, the AFL declares 1t says
President Truman has approached
the matter in the American way,
BY appointing Citizens Food Com
rittee representing the groups con-
cerned with food shortage prob
lens, including labor and has di-
rected the committee to work out
solution by voluntary means.
"The committees task" the fed
Grafton explains, "is to save enough
of the scarce foods to meet Eu-
ropes need and by this conserva-
tion to relieve the shortage which
is droving prices to outrageous
heights at home. To save meat,
poultry and eggs will help i'm
mensely in bringing prices down.
"Two alternatives are before us:
(D Either we attack this problem
with the same all out effort that
won the war, either we save Europe
from mass starvation and ourselves
from skyrocketing prices; or (2)
We let this voluntary effort fail,
allow Europe to drift into hunger
and despair, and permit our own
prices to spiral to heights threaten
ing depression"
In ending, this federation en-
phaSiZes a conclusion often stress
ed in this column on the subject
of European relief: Immediate ac-
tion is vital. Every lost day means
lost production, increased expense" !"

| mainly from contributions borne
by both employer and covered
workers. However, since all seq
ments of our economy benefit di-
rectly or indirectly from the secu-
rity afforded, it is appropriate that
some share be borne out of the
general revenues of government.
2. Health Insurance:
"We reaffirm our unqualified
support of the health insurance
program which offers a method
by which working people of Ameri-
ca can provide for themselves and
their families a sound and practical
method of meeting the costs of
medical care. This plan is carefully
devised to utilize the service IF
government in the collection and
disbursement of funds necessary to
meet such costs without the intru-
sion of government into the rela-
|. .tionships between doctor and pa
tient or to establish government
supervision over the practice of
medicine.
3. Unemployment Insurance.:
at is our firm conviction that
the evils that beset our present
state unemployment compensation
laws can be overcome only through
the establishment of a single fed
eral system and we therefore re-
affirm our support of legislation
designed to that end.
"We have repeatedly called for
the administration of the United
States Employment Service to be
placed within the U. S. Depart
nent of Labor. In view of the
close tie between Unemployment
Compensation and the Employment
Services, we recommend that legls-
lation be introduced porviding for
the transfer ~ 9th the United
States Employment s'eivice and the
Buyeau of Employment Security
from the Fed raj Security Admin
istlation to tie T.. S Department
Of Labor.
a. Public Assistance:
1--WE urge the adoption of a uni
fled public assistance program to |
meet the needs of those not pro-
tected by the social insurances.
Such a program should provide
grants-in-aid to the states ADJUST
ed to their relative needs and abil-
ity to pay. We urge support of the
legislation which has been intro
duced and designed to meet these
detectives" /

Comment On World Events

Declaring that "the time is past
when American workers could safe
ny forget about the problems of
Europe and Asia," the American
Federation of Labor warns "preser-
walton of world peace and freedom
depends on our immediate econom-
ic aid to Europe"
"We must send them enough and
on time," the AFL says in it's
monthly economic review. GAS our
country was the arsenal of democ-
racy in wartime, SO today we are
the bread basket and workshop of
the world. To us falls the task of
leadership, for no other nation has
the producing power or the "know-
how"
"Two and half years after We
Day, Europe is in state of acute
economic crisis. To understand why
Europe has not been able to re-
cover, one must realize the vast de-
struction of homes, factories and
transport systems, the serious eff
feet of holding down German pro-
duction under the Potsdam Agree
ment, and the efforts of Soviet
Russia to prevent recovery"
Pointing out that Europe's grain
shortage affects American work.
ers' pocketbook, the AFL says:
Europe depends as never before
on grain from the United States,
since her large prewar supply from
countries now behind the iron cur
tain has been cut off by Soviet
Union. Crop failures in Europe
Aand the short corn crop here have
Dbeen followed by the sharp food
prices American families have re-
Gently found in their grocery
stores.
"Grain prices have scared this
fall on American grain exchanges;
wheat is up to $2.10 to 1924 per
bushel, corn from $2.19 to $3.50.
Farmers who did not raise enough
feed will have to buy more costly
grain for their hogs, cows, chick
ems; so prices of meats, dairy pro-
ducts, eggs have followed the grain
prices upward. Workers are caught
in the spiral"
The federation adds that the 16
Marshall Plan" countries have
made a valiant effort to restore
their production of bread grains,
but the last winter of "cruel cold,
the worst in so years." was follow
ed by floods and droughts; as a
consequence they were not even
able to raise two-t thirds of the pre-
war crop and must import SEQ mil
lion more bushels than last year
merely to keep their people alive on
minimum rations.
