COP Betravs
Promise On
Minimum Paw

WASHINGTON, July 2a
(LPA) - Thoroughly salts.
fled with the wrecking job
they have done on the Wag-
ner Act, members of the
House Labor, Committee last
week decided that, instead OF
throwing labor a "consolatiou
prize" in the form of soc legal
minimum wage, they'd study
the whole question of drastically
revising the Fair Labor Stand
ards Act.
The Subcommittee on Hours
and Wages of the House Labor
Committee backed down on
COP leadership's promises that
the 60c minimum bill would be
passed in this session when they
were faced with strong filibus-
tering tactics by the worst re-
dictionary wing of their COP
brethren, teamed with the
southern Democrats.
Chairman Samuel Mcconnell
(R., Pa) announced that the
subcommittees hearings were
recessed indefinitely. Other sub
committee members made it
clear that they would work for
a complete reopening of all pro-
visions of the Fair Labor Stand
ards Act-including the floor
of 40c on wages, the limitation
on hours worked the restric-
tions on child labor, and the
types of workers covered.
These anti-labor members,
who have ambitions to do to the
Fair Labor Standards Act what
the full committee did to the
Wagner Act, include several
men who frankly want to Nepeal
the measure entirely. RepRalph
w. Gwinn (R., N. Y) fnd Rep.
Max Schwabe (R., Mo) have
both put forward tbs extreme
view.

Labor Ignored
On Compulsory

WAS HING TON, July %
LPA)-After only one week of
hearings, a subcommittee of the
House Armed Services Commit.
tee last week approved and sent
to the full committee an 30
page bill providing for compul-

No labor spokesmen were
heard on the bill, sponsored by
Rep. Harry L. Towe (R., N. J.).
In previous hearings, the CIO
was heard in opposition to
UNIT. The Railroad Trainmen,
International Association of

applied and were not granted
time to testify in opposition.

JAW Votes
To Bypass
New NLRB

DETROIT, July 23-Top of
Ificers of the UAW-CIO an
nounced last week that the union
would in the future refrain
from calling upon the new Ma
itional Labor Relations Board for
any assistance whatsoever. y
The announcement, in the form
of two resolutions adopted by the
international Executive Board
was released by Walter P
Reuther, president; George F
Adde's, secretary-treasurer; ano
Richard T. Leonard and r. j
Thomas, vice-presidents.
The resolution banning utiliza'
ton of the NLRB as reconsti'
Ituted under the Taft-Hartley
Act said that the new law i'm
poses insurmountable obstacles
in the path of all labor organi'
cations which seek amicable ad'
iustments of their industrial dis
putes through the machinery oi
collective bargaining"
CRITICIZES MACHINERY
Specific criticisms Of the elec
ton machinery and certificatior
procedure revised by the Taft
Hartley Act were outlined in the
resolution as the major reason
for the unions decision not tC
use the facilities of the new
NLRB. ANY resort by the
i UAW- -CIO to the election ma
chinery of the new Nationa
Labor Relations Board, set III
by the Taft Hartley Act. woulc
be fraught with delay fatal tC
our organizing efforts" the
resolution said.
A separate resolution an
nounced the adoption of policy
of approval of only those col
IlectiVe bargaining agreements
which absolve the union in writ
ing of legal liability for alleged
contract violations. "The con.
tract grievance procedure nor.
mally utilized in such cases pro-
vides ample protection to the
employer, and there can be no
justification for his resort to the
institution of suits in addition to
invoking the provision of the
contract relating TO discipline"
the resolution states.
Both resolutions indicated
that the local unions of the
UAW-CIO, as well as the Inter
national Union, are to be COW
cred by these new policies.

are paid for out of a compul.
sorry ALLEGATION of union dues
say 81 out of S." Even if the
union papers were financed by
means of dues check-off, Taft
declared, "Pd be inclined to be
liberal about that"
What undoubtedly alarmed
Taft was the Justice Department
revelation that the law could
also apply to any comparatively
'owned daily newspaper. In ef-
feet, Taft apologized by saying
that it was not the intent of the
law to penalize papers advocat-
ing political candidates, but adj
mitted that it was aimed at pre-
venting unions from publishing
special election issues.

Charles Grim: It's no wonder
that an anti.labor Congress
moves in on us with Taft Hart
ley laws when the AFL takes
such an arbitrary stand. If the
world was on fire Green would
probably want to sit down and
talk about how to put it out in
stead of sending for the nearest
fire department.
Hike SOhikian: Under any
circumstance now is the time
for all labor to cooperate be-
cause il looks like this is the
time for a showdown between
labor and industry. The unions
should get together and conduct
their political fight although
there may be differences be,
tween them about Jurisdictions.
They should, by all means,
agree on who they are going to
elect for office and defeat every
congressman who voted for the
Taft.Hartley bill.

Widows and Orphans To
Receive SpeeioI
Government Gronts

STOCKHOLM, June 9.-In ad-
dition to the grants to children
which the Government will begin
to pay out January l, 1913, Gus
tav Moller, veteran Minister of
Social Welfare, proposes that spe-
cial contributions be made to or
phans and to widows and widowers
with children.
Even when the new grants be-
come effective, Mr.. M0ller points
out, the parents will still have to
pay considerable part of the
child's subsistence and education.
Children of widows and invalids, as
well as illegitimate children, can
not count on receiving the same
financial support as if the head of
the family We're alive or gainfully
occupied.
In these days of rising costs,
Mr.. Moller emphasizes, there is a
great need for special grants, in
addition to those which will be
given all children, regardless of the
economic status of the family.

King Gustaf V Is
80 Years Old

STOCKHOLM-King Gustaf of
Sweden, who has ruled for almost
SO years, on June 16 observed his
S9th birthday, which he spent at
his summer palace, Tullgarn, near
Stockholm. The monarch enjoyed
one of his favorite sports fish
ing and managed to land two

he cut out an enormous, crown
topped birthday cake.
Although he had requested no
official celebration, messages of
felicitation, flowers, and gifts ar
rived at the chateau in a steady
stream from early in the morn
ing. Choir-school children sang
for him in the afternoon, and at
the Stockholm navy yard battery
fired a twenty-one gun salute.
