Strike IdlenesS Lowest
Since March OF 1915

Washington, ID. C. ILNS).-
Idleness due to labor-management
disputes dropped in January to the
lowest point since March, 1945, the
U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics
reported.
- There were 200 strikes or lock-
(lts in January, compared with
$50 in December, but the man-days
lost dropped from 3,065,000 to
1,250,0O0. In January, 1916, there
were 325 strikes and 19,750,0 ,0O0
man-days lost.
Virtually all the stoppages in
January were small and local in
character. The total number of
workers involved (1O0,OO0) was
only slightly greater than the 95,-
600 workers affected by contro-
versies beginning in December,
1916.
Including disputes which con-
tinued from earlier months, about
460 stoppages involving about
10000 workers were in effect at
some time during January.

A proposed International Bill of
Rights, drawn up by the Commit
tee on Human Rights of the Com
mission to Study the Organization
of Peace and just made public in
New York, is of interest to organ
lied labor, which has always been
to the forefront of the fight for the
rights of man.
More than forty national organi-
Zations have signed the document
which is based on studies carried
on ever since the Dumbarton Oaks
Conference in the fall Of 1914. 1t is
an expression of the ideas of these
organizations of the rights of in
dividuals in the community of ma
tions.
The proposed bill was made pub
lie by DR.. James T. Shotwell, chair
man of the Association for the
United Nations.
In making public the document,
DR.. Shotwell said:
'1n very real sense the draft
ing of this international bill Of
human rights is a direct continual
tion Of the work Of the consult
ants of the American delegation at
the San Francisco Conference, a
body of unofficial character, but
recognized as representatives Of a
very large section of American
public opinion. 1t was this body of
cOnsultants which insisted strong
ly upon the insertion into the text
Of the charter Of definite provision
in the organization Of the United
Nations for the study Of the prob
lem of human rights and measures
for their realization, eliminating
in the proposal for the erection of
this Commission on Human Rights
Therefore, those who partici-
pated in the work of the San Fran
cisco consultants on this matter
felt a continuing obligation to
study the problem on their own
account.
without commenting in detail
upon the various articles Of the
text, it may be pointed out that
the document falls into 3 main sec

tions. Articles 1, 2, 3 and 10 are
general statements of the nature
of the document itself. Articles Ia
and Is cover legal and political
rights which have already been
Incorporated into the public law
of many nations. The next 3 arti-
cles 16, II and Is, deal with social
and economic rights which have
been much under discussion in re-
cent years. They are designed to
insure not merely the negative
benefit of protection against arbi-
trary and oppressive rule, but the
positive assurance of normal con-
ditions of livelihood which make
for the larger freedom"
The articles which strike new
note in a formal declaration of hu-
man rights follow:
Article 17-"Every person has
the right to social security; and the
state has the duty to maintain or
insure that there are maintained
comprehensive arrangements for
for the promotion of health, for the
prevention of sickness and acci-
dent, for the provision of medical
care and of compensation for loss
of livelihood, and for insuring all
residents have an opportunity to
obtain adequate food and housing"

YOUR DOLLAR
BY CONSUMERS UNION
WOMEN'S SLIPS

WOMEN'S SLIPS
If you want a plain, tailored
slip, your chances of getting one
at the moment are rather slim, ac-
cording to Consumers Union. But
you will have a choice of fabrics
and construction - knitted and
woven rayon and nylon, and woven
cotton. Tests made by Gu on knit
nylon slips, while not fully conclu-
sive, indicate that they will be sat
isfactory and likely to wear several
times as long as a knit rayon
slip. Woven nylon slips tested so
far are unsatisfactory. Many knit
rayon slips are now as carefully
cut and styled as woven slips and
the possibility of runs has been re
duced.
In a woven slip, several cores
are likely to give better fit than
only two pieces and bias-cut bet
ter than straight. For durability
look for a plain rather than a
highly decorated slip, with firm
machine-sewn seams rather than
hand-sewn, and firmly anchored
straps, preferably adjustable.
Gu rated the following as Best
Buys in rayon crepe: Miss Swank,
1925, Textron, $2.95. Best Buys in
rayon satin were: Barbizon Bryn
Belle $1.85, Barbizon Jaunty Rite,
$3.50; in knit rayon, Fruit of the
Loom, S1.29. Best Buys in cotton
were: Loomcr ft, 95 cents,
Schrank's Syl-O-Slip, 81.

PHOTOGRAPHIC EXPOSURE
METERS

The highest prices of seven
brands of photo-electric exposure
meters tested by Consumers Union
ranked first but the least expen-
sive of the Acceptable meters
proved to be servicable instru-
ment for those photographers who
cannot afford the higher price or
who want small, easily carried
meter.
Many novice photographers are
dismayed to find than an expo
sure meter does not guarantee
good picture or even correct ex-
posures. Used intelligently, how
ever, an accurate exposure meter
is great aid to good photography,
especially with color film.
Among Acceptable meters, the
first two in estimated order of
quality were Weston Master III
Model 735, $29.67 with federal
taxi and General Electric Model
SDW58Y4, $26.85 with federal
tax. Fifth and last was Skan,

ing case with federal tax).

Seofurers Seek
Raises To Meet
Higher Costs

New York City. - Increased
wages to the rising costs of living
are being sought by the East
Coast Division of the Seafarers'
international Union (AFL), fol-
lowing a meeting here.
Operators with which the union
has contracts were notified Of the
new requests after special meet
ing of the STU.
In announcing the move, a
union spokesman pointed out that
last year the SlU, aided by other
AFL maritime unions, had brought
American shipping to complete
standstill" when the Wage Stabili-
zation Board ruled against in
creases that the union had nego-
tiated with shipowners.
No definite demands have been
set by the union but negotiating
committee, headed by j. P. Shuler,
assistant secretary-treasurer, will
attempt to "work out" satisfac-
tory wage scale with operator rep
resentatives, it was reported.
Asserting that the gains won by
the union last year had been
practically wiped out" by the ris-
ing cost of essentials, Paul Hall,
port agent for the STU, declared:
"We cannot allow ourselves to
go back to the sub-standard living
that seamen had to endure for so
long.
"We expect the operators to bar
gain in good faith. If not, we can
always rely on economic action at
the point of production"

PAINT CLEANERS

Paint cleaners when made up
ready-to-use can cost you any
where from 2 cents to 81 cents per
quart of effective paint-wash solu-
tion. Consumers Union finds that
cleaners vary in effectiveness just
as they do in price, though some of
the least expensive brands were
among the best. Generally, clean
ers sold in powder form were much
more economical than liquids and
concentrated pastes. Concentra-
tions recommended by the manu-
facturer in many cases gave solu-
tions to dilute to be effective.
Gu tested paint cleaners not
only for effectiveness but also for
harmlessness to paint and to hands
and rated Excellent these powders
and crystals: Swerl, Fl cents;
Scoop, 10 cents; and these liquids:
Zero, Is cents; Boon, 19 cents.

no PiihcipleS supported III
the statement have all been en-
dorsed by the AFL, in convention
and executive council declarations.
The statement asserted that
self interest reenforces the de-
mands for human decency in call
ing for acceptance of these basic
principles:
81. The future of Germany must
be planned in terms of the welfare
of all of Europe.
"2. Forced labor is form of
slavery and is incompatible with
the ideals for which this country
fought.
%. The transfer of areas with
out regard to the wishes of the
inhabitants and the uprooting of
whole populations violates funda-
mental human rights.
"a. Since world prosperity de-
pends on building up industrial
productivity everywhere, not tear
: pg it down, the revival of German
Industry as an European asset
puld be fostered."
The peace treaty with Germany,
y e statement said, "may make
possible the reconstruction of Eu-
rope by the cooperative effort of
its peoples, in the interest of all
of them. Or it may sacrifice con-
struction to vengeance, cooperation
to the struggle for points of want
age in new world war. Only the
former course can offer any hope
that World War ii will be the last
war"
After calling for the return of
prisoners of war and other forced
laborers to their own countries,
the application of the principles of
the Atlantic Charter in the final
determination of Germany's boun-
daries, and the abandonment of the
concept of deindustrialization, the
statement said in conclusion:
"Only just and constructive
peace can be lasting peace. The
peoples of the world will not in
definitely consent to the enforce
ment of any other sort. Such a
peace cannot be founded on hatred;
neither can it be based on the eff
forts of the powers to use Ger
many as a pawn against each
other. 1t must look to the reestab-
lishment of a democratic Germany
as fully accepted member of the
European community and the fam
,ily of nations. A peace treaty
which seeks lesser goal will be
,tSredoomed to failure"
