Court Restraints GIN
On NLRB Complaint
BY the Assoeiatsd Press

Federal Judge John Bright today
issued a temporary restraining order
in New York barring General Motors
Corp. from putting an employe in
surance plan into effect on Feb
ruary l..
The courts action was announced
here by the National Labor Rela-
tions Board.
Robert N. Denham, the boards
general counsel, requested the order,
contending that GIN had failed to
bargain on the insurance plan with
the CIO United Auto Workers
Union. Mr.. Denham charged this
was an unfair labor practice.
Judge Bright gave GIN until Feb
ruary 3 to say why it should not be
barred permanently on the plan. A
hearing will be held then to deter
mine whether a permanent injunc-
tion should be granted
Mr.. Denham told the court that
GIN was attempting to place its own
insurance plan into effect without
bargaining with the union as the
corporation had agreed to do in its
present contract.

MIAMI, Jan. ga SCrOng
possibility developed here today
that the American Federation of
Labor would reverse traditional
policy and indorse peacetime
universal military training.
Sentiment among the Is members
of the AFL Executive Council, it
was learned, has changed markedly
in recently weeks on the issue. A
committee, headed by Matthew
Vol, council member of New York,
has been appointed to study the
situation and to make report
within a few days.
Mr.. Woll is head of the AFL's
international relations department.
The council, policy-making body of
the federation, is holding its winter
meeting here.

Only last October, the AFL con-
vention passed a strong resolution

has never deviated. The Congress
of Industrial Organizations re-
affirmed its opposition last week in
a policy declaration.
1t is felt here that should the AFL
reverse it's stand it will have a
powerful effect on Congress, which
is confronted with the ticklish issue
in an election year. Endorsement
by this labor group, the Nations
largest with more than 100000
members, coupled with an interna-
tionat outlook for peace which is
getting no better, could provide the
spark to get the training bill
enacted, it is believed here.
The question of whether the AFL
should change its position on the
training issue is tied in with debate
over a bitter denunciation Of Soviet
Russia issuance of which the labor
leaders are considering. 1t IS felt by
a number of council members that
they would refrain from issuing the

The Moscow radio, broadcasting Ii
to the Soviet Union, said:
after its liberation, France
had an opportunity to create a
popular new democracy. That is
what the popular masses were
striving for and that is where the
Communists were leading them.
But the powers of the reactionary
owners of trusts and banks, plu-
tocrats and their political agents,
were not dead. Soon they found
new benefactors in the United
States and British imperialists.
United States monopolists, capi-
talists, who led reaction and i'm

ism aims at destroying the demo-
cratic forces Of France and turn

New Abe Rule Allows
License Near Church
In Business Zone
Commissioners Approve
Change at Request of
T Street Restaurant

The Commissioners today ap-
proved an amendment to the al
coholic beverage control regula-
tions which will permit the
licensing of liquor stores within
400 feet of schools and churches
in nonresidential zoning areas.
Under the original regulations the
ABC Board could not permit es-
tablishment of liquor store within
a 400-foot radius of a school or
church. That ban now is waived
in cases where "the main street
entrance of the school or
church itself is actually on or oc-
cupies ground zoned commercial or
industrial"
The change was proposed by the
ABC Board and indorsed by the
corporation counsel's Office.
The suggestion for change in the
regulations first was brought before
the Commissioners by attorneys for
a restaurant on T street between
Sixth and Seventh, at the corner of
Wiltberger street NV. The board
had refused the license because
there was church on the north side
of Florida avenue, the entrance door
of which was within 400 feet of the
restaurant which was applying for
a liquor license.
Attorneys for the restaurant told
the Commissioners that most of
Florida avenue east of Seventh
street to North Capitol street was
strip-zoned commercial II that is,
Florida avenue itself was zoned COM
mercial but the property in back of
it was not.
Concerning the church in ques-
ton, while the entrance door was
within the 400 feet of the store,
the auditorium of the church was
not. Therefore, changing the regu-
lation would permit the issuance
of a license to the restaurant.
Attorneys for the restaurant sub
mitted two amendments to Section
Three of the ABC control regula-
tions. The Commissioners agreed
to the amendment which said this
subsection shall not apply where
the main street entrance to said
school, college, university is ac-
tually on or occupies ground zoned
commercial or industrial"

Board Backs 157c Raise
For 18 Short-Line Railways
BY the Assoeiatsd Press

A presidential emergency board
recommended today that 18 short
line railroads grant a 1914 -cent-an-
hour wage increase to incorporating
employees.
The White House made public
the recommendation, which is SIM
liar to a recent arbitration award
for incorporating employees of trunk
line railroads.
The boards report, filed with the
President by Chairman Grady
Lewis, proposed making the in
crease retroactive to September l.,
1947.
The case involved a dispute be-
tween 18 short line roads and II
unions of incorporating employees
such as telegraphers and mainte-
nance workers.
Most Of the 300 short line roads
adopted the wage award for trunk
lines when it was made last Sep
tember, but the 18 baked.
Today's recommendations can be
accepted or rejected by any of the
Is roads or the unions. Usually

Schuman Loses Vote
On Plan 10 Withdraw
50,0O0-Franc Notes
Finance Commission of
National Assembly to Give
Bill Second Reading
BY the Associated Press

PARIS, Jan. ga government
bill to confiscate francs from
black marketeers was rejected
by the National Assembly's FL
nance Commission today.
Premier Robert Schuman's gov
ernment sought to withdraw all
5,000-franc notes in circulation, and
apparently to confiscate those OBJ
tained illegitimately.
The bill was rejected when the
Finance Commission failed to give it
a majority approval. The vote was
o tie. 20-20.
The government demanded a Sec
ond reading. The bill will go to the
National Assembly with an unfavor-
able report If the commission main
tains it's stand on the second read
ing.
$4,000, 900 in Circulation.
Authorized sources said the pro-
posed withdrawal would grab about
$500, 100000 worth of francs from
black marketers. There are 66,O0O,-
600 notes of the denomination in
circulation, worth about $1,000, ,OO0,-
600 at the free exchange rate. The
informants indicated those who
could not explain their possession
of the notes would have them taken
away.
The government closed all banks
to forestall speculation during de-
bate on the measure. Mr.. Schu-
man had urged the National Assem-
bly, to act quickly so that banks, the
stock market and other financial
agencies might open by Saturday.
Passage of the governments free
gold trade bill seemed assured
earlier by a Socialist decision to
support it in the Assembly. Mr..
Schuman had staked his cabinets
life on his monetary program. The
cabinet last Sunday decreed de-
valuation of the franc and the
establishment of free money mar
ket.
Note Worth About SIS.
The 5,0O0-franc note is worth
about SIS en- the free market. It's
withdrawal would be something like
the withdrawal of all $40 bills in the
United States.
Assembly sources said Finance
Minister Rene Mayer told them
small holders of the bills would be
reimbursed February and larger
holders by a February decree. He
said the bill was aimed directly at
smoking out ill-gotten wealth of
money changers, restaurateurs and
black marketers.
Assembly sources said the Premier
and the Finance Minister told the
finance commission that taking
away such money would strike a
blow at imitation, too, by reducing
the amount of money in circulation.
The reduction, Assembly sources
estimate, would be about 18 per cent.
France has 902, 1000, 100000 francs
in circulation, nearly double the
in 1914 after liberation.
The stock exchange was closed by
police on orders from the govern
ment. The other financial agencies
closed down in compliance with the
Finance Ministry's communique,
