IMPORTANT MEETING-One of
the most important sessions of the
year involving Government en-
ployes will take place in Chicago
Friday and Saturday.
At that time, the politically
powerful AFL National Federation
of Postal Clerks will hold its con-
ference to map the postal workers
pay-raise and retirement demands
during the regular session Of Con-
gress. The union is headed by Leo
George, who also heads the AFL
Government Employees Council
which represents about 100000 Fed
eral employees in all branches of
the Government service.
Not only postal employees, but all
Government workers will be affected
by what takes place at the confer
ence. This is because the postal
unions have always had considerable
political influence on Capitol Hill
and their pay-raise demands are
sure to be carefully considered by
Congress, especially in an election
year. And it goes without saying
that If postal employees win a pay
raise, Congress will vote pay boosts
for all other Government employees
as well.
Indications are that the confer
ence will ask for at least a $600-a-
year cost-of- living raise.

House Probers Find
Apparent Building
Monopo|yin New York
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Nov. 15.-The chair
man of a congressional subcommit-
tee said tonight there seems to be
a monopoly" existing in New York
City to bar outside competition for
contractors and labor.
The statement was made by Rep
resentative Gwinn, chairman of a
three-man subcommittee of the
House Committee on Education and
Labor, at a news conference after
the close of a three-day investiga-
ton of construction conditions in
the Metropolitan area.
Mr.. Gwinn said there Is 100 per
cent organization Of crafts and con-
tractual relations between builders
and crafts to do business with each
other, which amounts to an exclu-
sion of outside materials not bearing
the AFL and union labels and for
all practical purposes excluding con-
tractors from outside" +
He said that in view of this and
"in view of the fact contractors not
belonging to the contractors asso-
citation are bound by the same union
rules and practices affecting exclu-
sion of nonunion work and nom
union-made materials, there seems
to be a monopoly OF the building
business in New York City to the
exclusion of outside competition of
labor and materials.
ITO what extent the antitrust laws
apply or the Taft-Hartley Act ap-
plies under the interstate commerce
clause, we cannot determine We
made no effort to determine that in
these hearings" he went on.
Earlier in the day, however,
charges of monopolistic practices
were denied before the committee
by labor representatives, including
Howard McSpedon, president Of the
Building and Construction Trades
Council of Greater New York, and
Harold Stern, trades council at
torney.
The latter testified that construc-
ton trades unions are complying
with the Taft-Hartley Act in hav-
ing workers refrain from refusing
to handle nonunion-made materials

In most Clues where contracts
have expired, the mechanical en-
ployes are either working under old
working conditions while negotia-
tons are carried on, or raises have
been awarded by management and
work continues without a contract.
The Philadelphia Enquirer is one
of the few major metropolitan news
papers operating under conditions
Of employment"
In Louisville, the Courier Journal
and Times publisher rejected 'in
principle" operation under "condi-
tons Of employment" but the pa
pers are operating under those con-
ditions posted on the union bulletin
board.
The Boston newspaper publishers
announced November 7 they had
reached a settlement with the Bos-
ton Typographical Union on the
basis of an increase of $11.76 a week
but no mention was made of con-
tract and both the publishers and
the union refused further comment.
Negotiations Halt.
In Buffalo no negotiations are
being carried on. The union at the
Courier Express and Evening News
posted conditions of employment
and the publishers posted letter
rejecting them but allowing an g.
dollar weekly increase instead of the
$12 sought by the ITU. The men
have been on the job without in
terruption.
The ITU local In Houston, Tex,
announced November 10 it was ex-
tending for one week the deadline
! for acceptance Of a new wage scale
by the cities three dailies.
In Kansas City, Mo, and Kansas
City, Kans., newspaper manage
ments rejected conditions of en-
lployment" agreements but put into
effect $10 weekly increases which
constitute IA per cent raises. Nego-
tiations are to continue. A similar
situation exists in Atlanta, where
the Journal and Constitution
granted $40 increases and are oper-
ating without a contract or posted
conditions, and in Richmond, Va.
where a $40 increase also was
granted.
Cities where contracts have ex-
pired and where newspapers are
operating without written ITU con-
tracts include Tucson, Ariz; Boise
Idaho: in Cheyenne and elsewhere
in Wyoming: Chattanooga, Tenn.
Tallahassee, Fla; New Orleans, La.
Miami Beach and Coral Gables
Fla; Albany and Schenectady
N. Y: Lynchburg, Va, and Column
bus, Ohio.
Contract Reopened in Cleveland.
In most cities, ITU contracts have
not yet expired or were extended
before the Taft-Hartley law dead
line. In some cases, the union has
taken advantage of contract provi-
sions enabling them to reopen wage
clauses without changing other
contract terms.
In Cleveland, two-year contract
signed December l, 1916, was re.
opened and wage increases were
granted ITU members after tive
months of what the union described
as very friendly" negotiations.
In New York City, where all the
newspapers are covered by a con.
tract negotiated with the 1TU the
Publishers Association of New York
City, the contract expires March 81
and negotiations will begin February
!.
The ITU still maintains token
picket lines around the St. Peters

shops. The union claims it shocked

tions never were halted since the

Here is what the controversy is
about. Question II of the loyalty
QUESTIONABLE for all Federal en-
ployes asks the workers to list the
organizations to which they now
belong. But the Post Office loyalty
ouestionnaire-for some unknown
Ireason-makes it tougher for postal
employees and asks them to list all
the organizations to which they
have ever" belonged.
As a result, if a postal worker
fails to remember that back In 1916
he was a member of THE East
Orange Jolly Boys Club" he could
be accused of concealing informa-
ton on the loyalty questlonnalre.
And If you don't think it's difhcult
to remember every activity, no mat
ter how minor, in which you once
belonged, try 1t sometime.
Then, too, postal workers may be
penalized for past memberships,
something which all other Govern
ment workers are not required 10
list. For example, say that postal
worker in his younger days joined
some organization, but then re-
signed from it when he found out
that it was of q dubious character.
The would be required to list TINS
afiliation, possibly with harm1ul
results to himself.
| Civil Service says it doesn't know
anything about question No. IL on
the postal loyalty form and refers
ouestioners to the Post Once De-
partment. Not to be outdone, the
Post Office insists its Civil Service
matter.
