WFTU Called Obstructionist.
A reporter asked Mr.. Hoffman
whether the World Federation OF
Trade Unions, of which Russia is
a leading member along with the
CIO, had worked to hamper the
operation of the Marshall Plan.
Everything that the Communists
have any influence in has gone all
out to block and sabotage the Mar
shall Plan" he replied.
"Would that apply to the WFTU?''
he was asked.
"I should think so, wouldn't your
he answered.
Mr.. Hoffman said that the Berlin
air lift operation had greatly i'm
pressed Europeans and had done
much to build up confidence in the
western powers to get things done.
Cyrus S. Ching, director of the
Federal Mediation and Cancellation
Service, asked the help Of labor In
keeping the peace at home. He said
that labor right now has grave
responsibility in that respect, since
every disturbance in this country is
seized upon by our enemies in their
effort to destroy democracy.

sector from the West takes effect
today.
A Russian announcement, made
last night over the radio and
through the Soviet-licensed news
agency Adm, said the new. system
will apply to the entire Soviet oc-
cupation zone and the Russian-con
trolled area Of Berlin.
The Russians said that starting
today three kinds of identity cards
will be in use: For Germans, for
those without nationality and for
foreigners"
Col. Frank s. Howley. American
commandant in Berlin, said the
Russians had not notified the other
powers of the move. He said the
action appeared to him to be more
hocus pocus," but added that, if
enforced, it could block of the
Russian sector.
Col. Howley said he believed strict
enforcement of the uniform pass
requirement would be next to i'm
possible.
He said the Western powers would
not go along with the idea because
they had not been consulted.

Lie also has initiated a study of the

today their delegation has not yet

Mr.. Lie for definite information.
Controls Big Question.
The Soviet Union has declared it
will not lift the blockade unless the
Soviet mark becomes Berhn's sole
currency. The Western powers
agree, but insist tAc Soviet mark
must be under adequate four-power
control when it circulates I'M Berlin.
French officials said the chief
problem facing the financial experts
is whether an adequate four power
control of the Soviet mark within
Berlin is really possible.
They asserted that this is more
important than any question of
simultaneous action on currency and
the blockade, since once an agree
ment on currency is reached behind
the scenes, it would be simple to ar
range the "simultaneo,lsness of a
settlement.

Publishers Vote $l4O,OOO Fund To Fight Typos

NEW YORK-(FP)-The Ameri- can Newspaper Publishers Assn has voted a $140,000 assessment for further research to perfect strikebreaking tech niques now being employed in Chicago and elsewhere against AFL printers.
 The assessment was approved after delegates to the ANPA's convention at the Waldorf-Astoria here were told that the varitype method of producing newspapers is too slow, costly and inhexible
 Production Mgr. John W. Park of the Chicago Tribune, one of the five daily papers in that city which switched to varitype after the print CTS walked out Nov. "A, admitted his paper would return to normal printing practices when the strike is ended. ''Nobody has found a way to beat the time lag in the engrav- ing department" he said.
 Directly outside the convention hall, the ANPA has an exhibition of the latest techniques developed to super Sede printers. The entire varitype pro- cess Is displayed in neat, bulletin board form for all publishers to admire and study.
 ANPA Pres. David Howe attacked the leadership of the Intl. Typographi- cal Union, charging the union officials had refused to recognize mutuality of interest" The ANPA, he said, had tried to settle all differences in a ''conciliatory spirit"
 Meanwhile in Chicago, ITU officials accused the publishers there of submit ting a series of union -Wrecking pro- posa1s" in negotiations which were re- stunned after Federal Judge Luther Swygert issued a Hartley in junction against the union.
 In New York, publishers also demonstrated their ''conciliatory spirit" by fatly rejecting in a brief 2O-minute conference proposed changes in a tentative agreement that had been worked out earlier with ITU Local 6. The changes, or dered by the international union, were aimed at giving the union maximum protection permitted un- der the Taft-Hartley act and juris- dictiOn over varitypists.
 Following the breakdown of talks, Local 6 Pres. Laurence Victory wired ITU Pres. Woodruff Randolph to take personal charge of negotiations. Of hcers and newspaper scale committee of Local 6 are convinced further nego- tiations locally would be futile" ," he wired. Report and letter asking ITU assistance will follow"
 Victory said the request for in- tervention of the international un- ion meant that ''the situation is serious and might result in a strike.'

Labor To Have Place On ERP Advisory Board

Washington (LPA)-Labor spokes- men were hopeful this week that the trade union movement will have a strong voice in the administration of the European recovery program. Drop ping the language from the ERP bill which specified that "business, labor, agriculture and the professions" be represented on the public advisory board of the European recovery admin istration doesn't mean that labor will be denied its say, leaders of both Houses of Congress have made clear.
 One leading trade unionist pointed out that it would not be possible to describe the exact ways in which labor representatives will function until after the ERA and the organizational plan is estab- Iished.
 But, Sen. Arthur Vandenburg, leading ERP spokesman in the Sen ate, said: ''It is highly desirable that the board represent a cross-section of the fundamental interests in the life of the nation, with particular emphasis on agriculture and la bOr." He explained that in emitting language specifying what groups shall be represented, the draftsmen of the final bill did not mean to inn ply that the expectation and de- sire" of labor to participate in the carrying out of the Marshall plan shall not be met.
 In the House, Rep. Charles Kersten (R., Wis.), another ERP pilot on Capitol Hill, said: Tt is the European trade unionists who will fulfil the pro duction quotas of ERP. The presence of responsible American trade union leaders on the board is of first impor- tance as is the presence theron of busi- ness leaders. American management and labor are working shoulder to shoulder in this effort"
 Kersten reminded Congress of the London conference of pro- Marshall plan unions, at which the AFL, CIO, railroad brotherhoods were repre- sented. "The sound trade union move ment in each country, including the U.S.," he said, pledged support to ERP and for that reason 1t should have proper representation on the ad- visory board as a matter of public interest :"

In not a single manufacturing industry does the average weekly wage equal the amount determined by the Department of Labor as necessary to enable a family of four to live at minimum standard of living, without any frills.
 That shocking situation is cited by the AFL in its research publication known as 'Labor's Monthly Survey"
 At January prices, Uncle Sam's own official family budget would require at least $65 a week the year around, the survey pointed out. In manufacturing, the automobile industry comes nearest to meeting that with average weekly pay of $61.90, the federation said.
 Others range downward to as little as $37.97 in the tobacco products in dustry. Service occupations rate still lower, with hotels at the bottom of the list. Their average weekly pay is $30.55 less than half the minimum budget. Of course, that's supplemented by "tips. ,

They Get You Coming And Going
 In Some Of Our Impartial Courts

The New Jersey Supreme Court ought to take vacation. Nothing else but the strain from overwork suggests itself as the explanation of their feverish meanderings in the case of Bergen Point Iron Works V. Board of Review of Un- employment Insurance. With the honorable exception of Justice Colie, the majority of the court have given an imitation of Rep. Fred Hartley, co-author of the Taft Hartley act and still congressman from New Jersey.
 Think we're exaggerating? Read the facts in the courts own language.
 John F. Bonar worked for the Bergen Point Co. as a watchman. The union of which he was a member went on strike on August 16, 1946. Here is what the court says happened:
 "Bonar continued to work for a week after the strike occurred but then was laid off because the plant had been blockaded by pickets Bonar was un- employed until Feb. 1, 1947 when he secured a new job which he intended to accept as a permanent job. He worked there until June 1o, 1947, when he was laid off for lack of work
 Bonar applied for unemployment in Surance which was granted to him by the State Board, of Unemployment In surance. The decision was appealed on the ground that the strike at Bergen Point was still on. Here is what the Supreme Court said
 ''While Bonar is no longer em- ployed at the struck plant and does not intend to return to work there in any event, he has on several oc- casions expressed support to the strikers and has given them some encouragement"
 The court then reversed the state board so that Bonar could not collect his unemployment insurance until the strike is settled, even though he had no intention of returning to work at the plant
 BOnar therefore will never collect the insurance to which he was en- titled until he lives down the fact that he was once laid off because of strike in which he didn't par ticipate, but for which he expressed sympathy.

Industrial Wages Still Far Short
 Of Meeting Minimum Decency Budget

In only two industries outside of manufacturing-building cOnstruc- ton and coal mining-dO average weekly earnings exceed the $65 fig ure, but in each, workers lose lot of time due to seasonal shutdOwns, and other factors, and so Git is doubtful whether their yearly in- come equals the budget,' the sur vey explained.
 What makes the picture still worse is the fact that prices, after slight decline early in the year, are now marching upward again, the fedora tion declared. It pointed out that foods alone-which make up half the average budget-are now 50 per cent over the level of two years ago.
 This makes new pay raises all the more imperative, the federation insisted.

First US. Cigars
 Made In State

AsI recorded in history, cigars were first manufactured for com. mercial use by the wife of farmer living near East Windsor, Conn.,, and that the first cigar factory out. side the home was established in Suffield, Conn.,, about 1910.
 The Indian tradition of cigar -smok- ing was no doubt the reason for the c1gar store in early days having a wooden Indian as an advertisement with cigar i'll one hand, even though a tomahawk might be in the other Today the cigar store Indian rests alone and almost forgotten in the museums.
 We do not have to tomahawk mar anymore to call his attention to the pleasures of cigar smoking. Fragrant tobacco leaves, rolled into cigars ot all sizes and shapes have won a per nanent place among the pleasures oi mankind.
 At No. 20 Church Street near the center of New Haven, stands the oldest cigar factory in the United States. It has been in continuous operation since 1860 and always in complete cooperation with the Cigar Makers Union.
 Cigar Makers International Unior of America was organized i'll 1864 and their union label was adopted in 1874 The New Haven Local No. 39 was organized in 1876.
 STEADY GROWTH
 Down through the years, the Cigar Makers International Union continued growing steadily until the early 1920's when meehanization and consolidation brought revolutionary changes to the cigar industry. Shortly after the turr of the century some 10000 manufac- turers in the United States and Cana da were using our blue union label employing about 54,000 cigar makers covering nearly every state i'll the Union
 Organized labor throughout the na- ton recognized the cigar makers label and demanded 1t on the box from which they bought cigars, as we'll as labels, shop-cards and buttons of other crafts
 However, with the revolutionary changes in the industry and the passing of the years, the demand for union labels, shop-cards and buttons, have been somewhat neg Iected.
 There are still several hundred cigar makers in New England, all members of Cigar Makers International Union In an effort to continue these people at work and increase the sale of unior label cigars, Cigar Makers Internation al Union, in cooperation with Cigar Makers New England Label League are now conducting campaign, by visiting Central Labor Unions and To- cal union in New England, starting 1T Connecticut. It is our hope of increas- ing the sale of cigars bearing the unior label
 We earnestly request the whole hearted cooperation and moral support of every union member and their friends.
 Remember, the union label shop-card and button, not only as sures you that the article pur chased was made under fair work ing conditions, with a fair wage but also, that it was made in Amer ica
