One-fourth of the distance to-
wards its goal of one million mem
bers for 1947 has been covered by
the American Legion Auxiliary be-
fore December 81, Mrs. Albertus,
membership chairman of Laurel unit
of the Auxiliary, has announced.
Advance enrollments for 1947
passed the 100000 mark in Novem-
Der and were expected to reach the
100000 mark by the first of the
year, Mrs. Albertus said. In some
states more than so per cen of the
quota for the new year already had
been enrolled.
Enrolment of 100000 new men,
bers will be required to reach the
one million figure, the 1916 en-
rollment being almost exactly 80O,-
900. The gain during 1916 was APP
proximately 165 1000 members.
The Laurel unit is continuing ac-
tive enrolment of 1947 RENDERS
under Mrs. Albertus' leadership, who
reports rapid progress toward the
goal of 107 members.

Flowers Always Attractive

For thousands of years, the peo-
pies of the world have believed that
certain flowers possessed definite
virtues in addition to their beauty
and fragrance. Medicinal values of
flowers came first in the minds of
ancient peoples. And, although
many flowers actually did have
value as medicines, others were at
tributed with healing virtues which
they have never possessed. Some
flowers were, according to these
credulous folks, imbued with the
power to brighten away evil spirits
and to do all manner of amazing
things.

6. NJ. LAWYER DISCOVERS
AN IRON CURTAIN IN
A. F. |. BUILDING TRADES

New York (LPA)-The two sets
of Congressman investigating the
housing shortage finally met here
last week. One subcommittee of the
House Labor Committee is aiming
to prove that union practices in
the construction industry have
been the major cause of the hous-
ing shortage. The other, special
joint committee sof House and SEN
ate, stopped here long enough to
hear AFL, CIO and civic leaders
wholeheartedly urge support of the
Taft -Ellender-W Wagner housing bill.
The "labor racket" investigation,
which is simultaneously holding
hearings in Chicago and New York,
gave one full day here to the testi-
mony of Walter Gordon Merritt,
corporation lawyer who sold Chair
man Ralph w. Gwinn (R., N. YO
on the idea that he spoke in the
public interest" Merritt, who rep
resented General Motors Corp, as
counsel in the hard fought strike
of GIN employees two winters ago,
and represented a group of con-
tractors who fought Local 3 of the
Int'l Brotherhood of Electrical
Workers-AFL in an antitrust suit,
charged that an "iron curtain" pre-
vented revelation of the "racketeer-
ing"
Meanwhile, before the other Con-
gressional subcommittee here,
President Howard McSpedon of the
Building & Construction Trades
Council-AFL appeared to assert
that some union-e enforced practices
were intended to protect workers
from dangerous conditions. Along
with group of union officials, Nc
Spedon denied that the unions had
restricted productivity or the use
of materials or processes.
Mayor William O'Dwyer led off
long line of witnesses who Wig
orously supported the federally-
financed, locally-operated public
housing projects in New York City.
Other witnesses, besides AFL and
CIO, spoke for Protestant and
Catholic groups, Americans for
Democratic Action, and the Citi-
zens Housing Council.

McCOmb Said Widening
Wage-HOur COverage

Washington, ID. C. QLNS) -
Republican members of the House
labor subcommittee have accused
William McComb, wage-hour ad-
ministrator of the heinous "crime'
of seeking to put more and more
workers under the wage-hour law
"For 8 years, this thing has been
growing and growing" Chairman
Samuel X. Mcconnell, Jr., of Penn
sylvania told McComb at a commit
tee hearing, then asked
"When do you plan to hold il
stationary"
McComb, who has testified that
21,000,000 workers are covered by
law, agreed with Mcconnell that
the met result" had been to in
crease the number of employees
brought under che act.
"We think that is what the act is
for,' McComb said, "but | don't
just reach out and say We'll put a
lot more people under the act this
week."
Most of the increases resulted
from court decisions that new
groups of workers are subject to
the act, he added.
The subcommittee is considering
possible changes in the law.

To what extent the American
dinnerware industry will be handi-
capped by the tariff reductions
adopted by the Geneva conference
cannot be guaged at this early
date, G. d. Agnew of Cambridge,
Ohio, president of the United
States Potters Association, said
last week.
"Until we have had an opportun-
ity to study the extensive report
of the Geneva conference published
November l8, we do not know pre-
cisely to what extent concessions
have been made on the china and
pottery tariff. Consequently, we
cannot state at this time what
effects these concessions may have
on the American d;nnerware indus
tary," he commented.
"Even after all facts on the new
tariff rates are known, there will
be no way of predicting the effect
of such cuts on our business in
the immediate future. We feel
quite certin that regardless of what
the changes are in tariff rates,
there will be no increase in British
imports because of these changes.
Great Britain is now exporting to
this country and selling all of the
wares she can produce for this
market. This quantity has been in
creasing, and during the past few
months has been in actual excess
of that exported by them during
prewar years.
"We anticipate that Japan will
export considerable quantities of
dinnerware products to this coun-
try, and will have the advantage
of the tariff reductions. Just how

sist business and industry in re-
ducing the increasing number of
fires that last year destroyed more
than a quarter of a billion dollars
worth Of factories, plants and
stores, killing hundreds of workers,
the National Board of Fire Under
writers has published a 16-page
booklet, "Stop Fire-Save Jobs"
Designed to help management
and labor cooperate in a sound pro-
gram Of fire prevention, the book

most industries and shows how to
eliminate special hazards found in
many businesses.
The booklet also seeks to inform
workers about the basic elements
of fire protection, so they will rec

Pottery Industry Aims For Production
Record Of 100000, 900 Pieces Of Ware

much these reductions will handT,
cap the American industry remaifV
to be seem"
Agnew recalled that in the early
sos Japanese pottery imports, as
the result of low tariff rates and
cheap labor costs, severely reduced
production and employment in AM
erican plants. japanese pottery
workers received only one-ninth
the wage rate paid American work
ers, he related. German ware, made
by workers who received one-fifth
the wages paid American potters,
also was a serious competitor in
pre-war years. U. S. occupational
forces are reported to be encourag-
ing the stimulation of pottery pro-
duction in both Japan and Ger
many.
The American dinnerware indus
try, currently engaged in the most
intensive research and expansion
program in its history, is today
producing dinner and oven ware
superior to that being made any
where else in the world, Agnew
declared. In order to meet the pent-
up postwar demand, the industry
this year is aiming for peace
time record production goal of 500,-
100000 pieces of household and
hotel ware.

UAW Hits Phony
Insure onc e Plan
Proposed BY GIN

Detroit LPA)-A phony insur-
ance plan offered by General Mo-
tors to it's employees was denounced
here last week by the United Auto
Workers which plans to press for
comprehensive insurance and
pension program when the JAWS
contract with GIN comes up for re-
newal.
T. A. tombstone, assistant direc-
tor Of the JAWS GIN Department,
declared in the absence of President
Walter Reuther from the city, "The
new group insurance plan offered
by the corporation is management
maneuver to try to block the UAW
demand for adequate old age pen
sions and medical, hospital, sick
ness and life insurance.
at is an attempt by management
to evade collective bargaining, to
which it is committed by contract,
on this question of greatest inn
portance to GM workers"
"The features of the plan T..
fall far short of the human needs
Of GIN workers. They do not meas
ure up in any degree to the stand
ards set by the UAW for such old
age protection and health insur-
ance standards, which are com
pletely supported by GIN workers.
The UAW will continue to press
its original demands for adequate
pensions and health insurance"

Halifax Labor Stresses
Union Label Buying

Halifax, N. S. (1LNS)-The Dis
trict Trades and Labor Council has
been giving special attention to
buying with the union label in
mind. James Cody, secretary, point
ed out that the wives of AFL men
could achieve much by demanding
to be shown union labels in the
stores when making purchases. j.
J. Campbell, president of the lila
local, largest in the district, said
union men should buy Nova Scotian
made goods if produced in union
shops. Where the Nova ScOtian
items are nonunion, there is justifi-
cation for buying goods made out
side this province.
Hugh Henderson, an executive
of the Tramways Union local, said:
"There is a great need for the
union members to become union
label conscious when buying in
Halifax stores. The sooner the
unions get down to a firm founda-
ton, the stronger the organization
will become" 1t was charged that
insufficient attention is being paid
to buying union-made merchandise,
and to insisting that wives and chill
dren limit their purchases to the
goods bearing the label.
1t is felt that the position of la
Dor can be strengthened greatly 4
there is substantial increase in
the total of union-made products
that are bought i'm the stores OF
Halifax and elsewhere in Nova
Scotia province.

POST OFFICE CLERKS
ASK SALARY RAISE

Chicago (ILNS)-A recommen-
dation that Congress grant 81 ,O0C
year permanent salary increase
to all post office clerks was ap-
proved unanimously by 300 dele
gates at an emergency legislative
conference of the National FEEDER
alton of Post Office Clerks here
The delegates represented 43
states.
Leo E. George, president OF the
federation, who presented the reso-
luton asking the pay increase said
that morale in the post office de-
partment was low because the
starting salary of $2,100 for clerks
was insufficient to attract efficient
personnel, and that many of the
clerks must take outside jobs to
supplement their wages.
The conference endorsed propo-
sal of Representative Olin E. Tea
que, of Texas, to allow veterans
credit for the years they served
in the armed forces in setting start
ing salaries if the veterans joined
the postal service.
Also adopted was a resolution
endorsing a proposal of Represen-
tative William H. Stevenson, of
Wisconsin, increasing annuity bene-
fits at retirement. The plan, which
has been passed by the House and
has received Senate committee ap-
proval, would increase employe con-
tributions to 6 per cent from the
present 5 per cent.

Again we can do that by building a
consumers cooperative movement.
We have an opportunity while
money is loose to gain profits and
power both of which will stand us
in good stead when the present
merry-go-round comes to a halt.
"NOt One Way Street"
president Truman has again
urged all of US to save all we pos
sibly can in order to relieve infla-
tionary pressures. We should get
every member Of our unions to
save regularly by paying down
money every pay day for the pur-
chase of stock in consumers CO.
operatives. A regular schedule of
saving builds up large sums quick
ly and can mean the rapid expan-
sion of our consumers movement.
"This is not one-way street.
Help we give the consumers CO.
operative movement can be return
ed to us in different ways. Many
consumer cooperatives require their
employees to belong to unions. All
of them should do this, and if all
of us work in consumer coopera-
tives we can see that they take this
same position. That would give US
a secure base of organization in
the distributive trades and in other
fields the cooperative movement
may enter.
Here, then, is chance for pro-
fits and power, by investing wisely
in a business movement with a con-
science"
