Senator Tobey said he understood
the stock sale agreement was not
reached until after 5 pm. on Feb
ruary and that less than a half
hour later the SEC accepted the
auto firms stock registration state
ment.
Information Sought.
Among other things, the Senator
asked the SEC for the following
information:
l. When was the commission first
advised of the agreement between
the bankers and the company?
2. Was the SEC informed that
the bankers had decided to buy
100000 shares, instead of the 1,500,-
600 shares originally agreed on?
3. What official allowed the
Kaiser Frazer registration state
ment to become effective and by
what authority?
4. Did the commission consider
whether the reduction in the num-
Der of shares to be sold resulted in
a false and misleading" registra-
ton statement?
Il also note" Senator Tobeys
letter said, that the commission S
investigation does not include any
inquiry into the market operations
on February 3, 1948, in which the
issuer CKaiser-Frazer) purchased
1856 200 shares of its own stock"

|Kaiser-Fraser Probe
By Senate May Hinge
On Data Given by SEC
BY the Associoied Press

A congressional inquiry into the
$4,000, 900 Kaiser Frazer stock may
hinge on how the Securities and Ex-
change Commission answer 20
questions.
These questions were submitted
yesterday by Chairman Tobey of
the Senate Banking Committee. He
said there is strong possibility"
that the SEQ itself may not be
free of responsibility in the case.
The Commission has been con-
Quoting hearings on the withdrawal
February 8 of two banking firms
from an agreement to sell 100000
shares of the auto firms stock at
s13 share. The firms are Otis &,
Co., of Cleveland and the First
California Co. of San Francisco.
In letter to Acting SEC Chair
man Robert K. McConnaughey, Sen
ator Tobey. said:
Il believe that the public is en-
titled to a full explanation of the
commissions action in connection
with this stock issue, and I am con-
sidering the advisability of recon-
mending to the Senate Banking and
Currency Committee that it makes
a complete investigation"
Statements Recalled.
The Senator said he had seen
disturbing statements" that the
Kaiser-Frazer stock issue was to
raise funds ito be used in whole or
in large part, not to increase pro-
duction, but to reimburse the cor
poration for about $1O00O,000 which
had been used to pay off a loan
to the Bank of America upon which
various insiders of the Kaiser
Frazer Corp. were liable, individu-
ally, or through companies that
they owned
An SEC official said the COM
mission had no comment on Sen
ator Tobey's letter. He indicated
that the present hearings would be
suspended after today's session until

did the commission approve this,
and If so, which commissioners
voted for it?" Senator Tobey asked.

He said he also wanted to know:

INFORMATION


Editors Note: Ex-servicemen and
women are vitality interested in the
benefits which their government Of
fers them through the Veterans
Administration and they are asking
thousands of questions daily.
Q. May l go to a private hospital in
my home town and have Veterans Ad-
ministration pay the bill?
A. If O have a service-connected
disability and have received prior ap-
prevail from VA to do SO, you may go
to a private hospital in your home town
at VA expense.
Q. Can | transfer my National Serv-
ice Life Insurance policy to any Of the
private companies?
A. No. Your NSLI is convertible to
one or more of the six permanent plans
issued only by Veterans Administra-
ton. These are Ordinary Life, 3O-Pay-
ment Life, ~20-Payment Life, Endow-
ment at age 60, and Endowment at
age 05.
O. Just which veterans are entitled to
disqualification in a Veterans Admins
tration hospital?
A. Veterans with service-connected
disabilities have a top priority for VA
hospital care. Veterans with non-serv-
ice-connected ailments may be hospital
lied under existing law if beds are
available and if they say they cannot
afford treatment elsewhere. Pcacc-time
veterans, members Of the Regular Es-
adjustment, retired officers and enlisted
men, under certain conditions, also are
eligible for disqualification.

WORKERS EDCUAIION
DREAM AND REALITY

come increasingly apparent that the
thinking OF our millions is beng lnllu-
cnced to a surprising degree BY the
radio and the movies. OF necessity
more attention must be paid to these
important mass media OF communica-
ton. Ii we ignore or assume a passive
attitude toward media that are unqucs-
,ionably Il greatest sourcc OF culture
and enlightenment, we shall be ems
in our duty. Perhaps the next decisive
step in the field Of workers education
will be purposciul utilization OF MOVIES
and the radio. Properly conceived and
directed, they car be powerful weapons
against the deadly enemies Of labor
confusion and prejudice.
A famous philosopher once observed
that the educator must himself be-
come educated" The teacher in work
ers' education cannot lightly heap TACT
upon fact; he must stress analysis and
conclusions which can become the basis
Tor action. Ii the worker is burdcned
with too much mental lumber, he Will
be unable to distinguish between the
trees and the forest. Much more skill
is required in the work-a-day world
than college youngsters preparing Tor
life. The teacher, therefore, must not
only instruct students but must learn
from them. A challenging discussion
OF conflicting opinions between stu
dents and teacher helps to clarity views
and develop creative thinking.
Government Should Help
TO live up to its opportunities workers
education should be able to secure as
sisAncc not only from trade unions but
also from the federal government. After
all, the Department OF Agriculture gives
educational assistance to our farmers
and the Department OF Commerce TO
our businessmen. Neither Of these cN-
pcndi,ures Of money and effort is ques-
toned. Is it not equally appropriate
ior Congress to authorize the Depart
mcnt OF Labor to assist labor by aiding
the spread OF an adequate workers cdu-
cation program, 1t is just as impor-
iant Tor the labor movement to keep
its people enlightened about their place
in industry and their rights and rcspon-
sibilitics in society in order TO perform
their functions as it is for groups OF
farmers and businessmen to carry on
illeir functions.
Workers education has faith IN a
better future; and the Workers ldu-
cation Bureau will strive with cent?
dcncc and rcsourcefulncss to make to-
days dreams and hopes OF humanity
become tomorrow's realities. THIS is
III, Challenge and our opportunity.

Dear Hard-Top:
How's fishin'? | figured out a way
to guarantee your days catch. First
YOU hang around a barber shop and get
a line on some guy that's braggin' about
always catching the limit. Pay atten-
ton so you know where to go, then
hire a bassoon player and beat II out
early to his spot next Sunday morning.
Leave the bassoonist a quarter OF a mile
away from this spot SO when the other
gang arrives they will hear the bassoon
and stop to listen. That gives you
plenty Of time to fill your basket. No,
a monograph won't work, pal; it takes
live music.
Sam Treloar's Butte Miners band has
been rehearsing a fine score for the

BUILDING TRADES WAGES SET
new RECORDS But STILL
LAG Behind HIGH LIVING COSTS

WASHINGTON Although at an
all-tilmc high, hourly wage rates OF
union workers in the construction in
dustry are tagging behind the rapidly
soaring cost OF living. according to
statistics released by the Bureau of La
Dor Statistics.
Furthermore. the record gain in
wages for building tradesmen is only
about half the recorded increase in the
price Of building materials.
The BIS report said that. since 1889,
hourly rates Of union tradesmcn have
increased o. per cent, while the cost OF
living shows an increase Of over 70
per cent. On the other hand, building
materials prices have shot up no per
cent during the same period.
The regular quarterly BIS survey Of
seven basic building crafts in Is cities
estimated that about 100000 workers
received an average pay scale of $40
an hour as Of July |, 1913. In a year
the report said, union contract negotia-
tons resulted in a 10 per cent boost in
pay for all trades combined. This is
S per cent lower than the annual gains
scored in the two previous years.
.Thcsc pay scale boosts" the report
declared. "haye been more than coun-
terbalanced BY the rise in cost OF living
essentials. an important factor contrib
uting to the higher wage rate
Bricklayers led the seven crafts sur
veycd with al average rate OF 500 an
Lo,,r aud with fhp HIGHEST scale reDOrt-
cd. 1920, in New York city. Building
laborcrs, while still rating at the bottom
in terms Of average wage rates, tor
the first inc gained a rate in excess OF
81 per hour. Common laborcrs in New
ark. N. J., have a basic hourly rate Of
SIPS.
The following table shows the per
cent Of Increase won in the past year
and the present average hourly rate for
