Bitter Fighting
May Mark Xmas
AS Scabs Move In

Bakersfield, Calf. (LPA)-Pros-
poets of "bitter fighting" in the
strike at the Di Giorgio ranch neal
here were seen last week. The Di
Giorgio interests, under cover ot
darkness, have smuggled 200 strike
breakers thru the 1917 mile pic
ket lines maintained by the Natl
Farm Labor Union-AFL. Feeling
is running high among the strik-
ers and the union warns that while
it wishes the strike "to remain
peaceful, we cannot be expected to
assume the responsibility now"
Recruited from ads in FL Paso,
Texas, papers, the strikebreakers
were not told there was strike in
progress. All of Mexican descent,
the families were brought from
Texas, many of them almost penni-
less, and now face the prospect of
working as scabs or being thrown
out with no carfare to return home
or prospects of other jobs.
The unions Spanish-speaking or
ganizer reports the scabs "are too
scared to tell how they got here
or who paid their fare"
An appeal for Christmas contri-
buttons for the 100 strikers, who
expect to start their 85th day on
the picket lines Christmas morning,
has been made by the Di Giorgio
Strike Relief Fund, which can be

MEDIATION EFFORTS
CONTINUE IN RAIL
LABOR CONTROVERSY

Chicago = UPA) = An over
whelming majority vote in favor
of strike on the nations railroads
was revealed here this week by
leaders of three Railroad Brother
hoods-the Locomotive Engineers,
Locomotive Firemen & Enginemen,
and the Switchmen, representing
about 100000 Operating" employ
es.
The issue had been put to neyr-
bership referendum, ofter negotia-
tions with the railroads on demands
for a wage increase and improve
ments in working rules became
stalemated. The response was close
to 100 per cent for stoppage, if
necessary. Chiefs of the three
Brotherhoods prepared to fix a
strike date in the near future.
However, there's no likelihood of
an immediate stoppage, if any at
all. The National Mediation Board,
which administers the Railway La
Dor Act has been trying to secure
a peaceful settlement through medi-
alton. 1t recessed for the holidays,

Initiation Causing Drain On Savings;
People Cashing Bonds At High Rate

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Ameri-
can wage learners, fighting a los
ing battle against soaring prices,
have been forced to dip more often
into savings in efforts to make
ends meet.
Holders of $25, $50 and 500 gov
ernment war bonds are cashing
them in evef-increasing numbers
as the cost of living rises.
This is the hard fact the U. S.
Treasury faces as it prepares to
launch, with approval of the Re-
publican Congress, a new bond
selling campaign to siphon off in
flationary dollars.
The Treasury's figures on bond
sales and redemptions indicate the
new campaigns success will rest
largely upon the PERSONS who in the
past were able to purchase $2C0,
$500 and $1,000 bonds and farm
ers.
The $25, $50 and 500 market ap-
parently is almost gone.
In the last year, 89,00O,O0O $25
bonds were redeemed as compared
with only 46,0O0,0OO sold. OF the
$50 denomination, 1S,000,000 bonds
were cashed as against 100000
sold, and 100000 S1OO bonus
were cashed as against 8,000,0O0 |
sold.
While redemptions of the small
er Series E savings bonds were far
exceeding sales, the opposite was
true of larger denominations.
One million $500 bonds were sold |
as compared with ony $4,000 cash |
ed. And of the $500 and $1,000 |
denominations, 100000 of each |
were sold as against 100000 of
each cashed.

COP Has Watered
Down Program To
Meet High Prices

Washington (LPA)-Congress is
expected to return home for the
holidays on Dec. 10 with the stop
gap aid program enacted into law,
but with very little to show to
stop initiation at home.
Republicans last week unveiled
their own program, which took
over two of President Truman's
ten points, dealt with three other
proposals for government controls
by substituting voluntary agree
ments by industry, and promised
action later on rent control.
The COP plan, which was very
distasteful to more liberal Repub-
licans like Morse Of Oregon, Tobey
of New Hampshire, and Flanders
of Vermont, rejected entirely tru-
mans proposals for selective price
and wage controls, and authority
for the President to ration scarce
commodities. 1t did include a one
year extension of export controls
and power to allocate transporta-
tion facilities.
Major objection of Democrats to
the program centered around pro-
posal that antitrust laws exempt
voluntary agreements by industry
or agriculture groups for the allo-
cation of scarce materials. Such
agreements would be the COP sub
stitute for government-enforced ra-
tioning. President Truman assert
ed that there would be no relax
alton of the antitrust laws as long
as he could do anything about it
though earlier in the year he had
asked Attorney General Clark to
decide whether voluntary price
reducing agreements would be con-
sidered monopoly activities.
As if spur to Congressional ac-
tion was needed the Bureau of Labor
statistics last week reported that
in October, as in September, the
cost of living stayed at an all-time
high. The consumers price index
remained 1912 per cent above the
previous year.
Residential rents, according to
BIS, rose an average of 5 per cent
during the first four months under
the 1947 rent control law, mostly
as a result of the voluntary" Is
per cent rent boosts allowed under
the new law. Indicating that in
some cities resistance by tenants I
was greater than in others, BIS
figures show that while less than
10 per cent of the rental dwell
ings were affected in Buffalo, Man
chester, Mobile, New York, Port
land, Me-, and Savannah, large
reported rent increases
i'm the other cities. In Cincinnati
and Jacksonville, boosts hit | in
etery 3 rental units; in San Fran
cisco and Baltimore, in every 5;
i'm Boston, Detroit and Portland,
Ore, / in every a; in Denver, In
dianapolis, Kansas City, Minneapo-
lis, Pittsburgh, Richmond and st.
Louis, in every 3; and in Chicago,
! in every 2.
