AFL Bldg. Unions

Washington LPA)-The coop
erative attitude of building union
officials was lauded in the report
adopted this week by the Joint
Congressional Committee on Hous-
ing.
While asserting that in the past
restrictive practices by unions try
ing to insure employment for their
members has contributed directly
to the excessive cost of construc-
ton" the Committee asserts that
"the incentive for the development
of restrictive practices can be di-
minished by stabilizing employment
in the building trades at relatively
high levels"
"The committee was impressed
with the willingness of union Of
ficials to cooperate" the report
says. "The unions have agreed to
take immediate steps to correct
any labor abuses called to their
attention by the committee. In

EIe cfric Bills
Drop Close To
1000 I'm IL Years

Chicago ULNS) - Residential
electric bills have dropped close
to 20 per cent in the last IL years,
the international City Managers
Association says.
Citing a recent report of the Fed
eral Power Commission on typical
residential electric bills, the asso-
citation noted a % per cent reduc-
tion in bills since 1885 for residen-
tial service of 25, 100, and $50 kilo-
watt hours. An overall drop in
unit prices Of one cent per kilo-
watt hour also was observed.
Except for the $50 XVIII residen-
tial bill in cities of $4,000 popula-
tion and more, the greatest reduc-
tions occurred for communities be-
tween $500 and 10000 The average
monthly bill for cities over $4,000
for 100 XVIII was $3.64 in January,
1947. The charge was 1876 per cent
lower than the average bill of SAT-
charged for the same service in
January, 1885.
Within the 12-year period, the
average monthly bill for 100 XVIII
in cities of from 10000 to $4,000
dropped 2l.1 percent while similar
charges in cities of from $500 to
10000 dropped pa per cent.
Biggest Drop In 5 States
The lowest average bills for resi-
Dental service were found in Ten
nessee, Washington, Oregon, Ala
bama and California. In the last IL
years, reductions of $1.75 or more
for 100 XVIII have been made in
Arizona, Florida and Louisiana.
These 3 states together with Ten
nessee and Utah all had reductions
equal to 30 per cent Of more of
the average 1885 bill.
The survey, which covered 3,776
communities, showed that in 1885
not a single state had an average
bill as low as $3.50 while
in l947 II states had bills lower
han this amount. AT the other end
Of the scale, 3 states in 1885 had
iverage bills more than $3.50, while
n 1947 this was true of only II
states.

Rents Will Soar
If Mouse Version
Of Bill Prevails

Washington (LPA)-Despite a
vigorous fight on the part of sup
porters of effective rent controls,
the House this week passed a bill
which gives local rent control
boards the power to decontrol or
raise rents in their areas. Increases
of up to so per cent in rents are
predicted in some cities unless Sen
ate and House conferees agree to
bill stronger than that passed by
the House.
The House bill's "local option"
provision mot only stacks the cards
in favor of decontrol but is of
doubtful constitutionality," assert
ed the Natl Rent Committee of
Americans for Democratic Action.
Chairman Robert F. Wagner Jr.,
was jointed by AFL and CIO lead
ers in the ADA statement con-
demning the House bill. Signing
the ADA statement were President
Walter Reuther of the United Auto
Workers. -CIO, who also heads the
CLOS Housing Committee, Presi-
dent Harvey Brown of the Int'l
Association of Machinists, and
President Hugo Ernst of the Hotel
& Restaurant Employes-AFL.
The six Democratic members of
the House Banking Committee who
fought against the 'local option"
provision issued a minority report
which also attacked the fact that
there are insufficient enforcement
provisions "other than weak auth
ority under injunction"

LLPE Building Was
British Embassy

Washington (LPA) - The
brown stone mansion 1926 H
Street that now houses Labor's
League for Political Education
is one of Washington's most his
toric buildings. 1t looks across
Lafayette Square to the White
House.
1t was built in 1880, and in
1876 was the British Embassy.
Here it was that US Secretary
of State Daniel Webster and
British Ambassador Lord Ash
burton signed the Webster Ash
burton treaty to establish the
US-Canadian boundary line,
which has been maintained with
out misunderstanding ever
since.
For many years the house
was known as the Freeman
Mansion, and was owned by the
family of Douglas Southall Free
man, famed Richmond, Va, edi-
tor and biographer of Robert E.
Lee.
The property, bought by the
AFL for $1,000,000, includes a
40 foot frontage on 10th Street,
and the AFL will shortly begin
work on a new office building
facing 10th Street and running
behind the H Street mansion.
AFL Secretary George Meany
said last week that if the CIO
enters the AFL he'll be willing
to tear the old building down
and extend the new one thru to
II Street.
