NMU Leader Held
For Deportation

New York (LPA) - Ferdinand
Smith, secretary-treasurer of the
National Maritime Union-CIO was
arrested last week and held for de-
portation by agents of the Federal
Bureau of Investigation. They
charged that Smith, a native of
Jamaica, is an Alien Communist
and that his entry into the u. S.
was illegal
In 1914 Smith resigned his post
in the union when it was revealed
that he was not a citizen, but was
permitted to return to it in 1915
when he stated that he had taken
steps to acquire citizenship. Re-
Gently he has been attacked by
NWU President Joseph Curran as
a leader of the pro-communist fac
tion in the seaman's union. His ar
rest came the day following his APP
pearance with Henry A. Wallace in
support Of the American Labor
Party candidate for Congress in
special New York city election.
Michael J. Quill, president of the
Greater New York Industrial
Union Council labelled Smiths ar
rest Outrageous" and charged that
"the power Of deportation is being
used to disrupt unions"

Taft-Hartley Law Seen
Destroying Labor Unions

Newark, n. J.-Six months ex-
.perience under the Taft Hartley
aw has convinced trade unions they
cannot live under the statue, AS
semblyman Lewis NJ. Hermann,
.secretary-treasurer Of the Interna-
tional Labor Press Of America, de-
clared:
Speaking at forum here for la
Dor union members, Hermann said
"The Taft-Hartley Act may well
succeed in destroying the trade
union movement in America; how
ever, in so doing it will unquestion-
ably pull down the pillars Of Am
erican democracy with it, because
the organized labor movement in
this country has been the backbone
upon which this Republic has pros
pered."

WHAT'S COOKIN'?

Starting out as an insignificant
cake as far back as Biblical times
the humble donut which first be-
came popular in World War |, has
become the most popular and high
ly consumed cake in America to-
day.
Dunkers and all American lovers
of the delicious little round cake
with the hole in the middle are an
ticipating the 18th annual Nation
al Donut Week celebration which
will be held throughout the coun-
| try March Sth thru the 18th.
Believe it or not, in 1947, one
hundred and eighty million dollars
worth of donuts were eaten or
dunked which totaled over eight
billion, six million donuts. They are
liked by young and old, rich and
poor. They satisfy the spirit as
we'll as the appetite. Plans for this
annual celebration called for dunk
ing contests to be held, and in
some sections Of the country cook
ing schools will conduct contests
offering prizes to home makers
creating the most novel ways to
serve donuts.
In various parts of the country
donuts are called by different
names, but they are donuts just the
same. In Philadelphia they call
them crullers; upstate New York
ers know them as fried cakes, and
down South they are cake donuts.
Donuts are most popular for
breakfast, and IS per cent of the
donut lovers prefer them sugared
to plain.
Here is suggestion for st. Pat
rick's Day: Slice into thin slices
crosswise a donut for each person.
Beat cream cheese until fluffy by
adding little cream and tint pale
green with food coloring. Put the
donut slices together with this. Add
almond extract and broken pistac-
hio nut to the filling.

N. Y. Electricians
Win Wage Increase

New York City (ILNS)-Local g.
International Brotherhood of Elec-
tricians and 5 associations of con-
tractors have agreed on a wage
increase and retention of the clos
ed shop, in negotiations conduct
ed under the unions old contract
Retention of the closed shop, which
is banned by the Taft-Hartley law,
is held justified by a clause in the
old contract.
The clause provided that the 1947
agreement was to run from year
to year" unless either side served
formal notice of cancellation. On
the strength of this provision, Har-
ry Van Arsdale, Jr., business man.
ager of local 3 said, the union
and the contractor have agreed to
raise wages 25 cents an hour, lib
eralize the employer financed
health and welfare program and
continue most other provisions of
the old contract without change.
The pay increase brings the hour
ly rate for 5000 electricians in the
construction industry up to $3.50,
with the stipulation that the
seventh and eighth hour of work
each day is to be paid for at the
rate of time and one-half. On this
basis, electricians will receive
$112.50 for 40-hour week. In adj
dition, the contractors pay 8 per-
cent of their payrolls into the
health and welfare fund, Van Ars-
dale said.
The closed-shop issue will not
arise in most other construction
trades in this city until 1850 be-
cause the bulk of the 250,000 New
York building workers are covered
by a 5-year master agreement sign
ed just after the war. This agree
ment guarantees protection of the
closed shop.

Senator Worms
3rd Round Wage
Hike Is Cerfoin

Washington (LPA) - Just one
year ago, Sen. Wayne Morse (R.,
Ore.) reminded Senate Labor sub
committee last week, their com
mittee was considering legislation
intended to insure industrial peace.
When Che committee passed the
Taft Hartley law, he asserted, eve
missed the apple and hit the boy
Morse testified in favor Of the
Labor Extension Bill, Of which he
is cosponsor, insisting that This
bill is the most important and con
structive proposal that labor has
offered in MANY years"
"The cause of industrial unrest
was, is, and will be the inflationery
cycle in our industrial econ
omy," the liberal Republican said.
If initiation continues, "A third
round Of wage increases is as sure
as tomorrow mornings sunrise. A
third round is bound to have an in
flationary effect"
But, he added, eve have got to
be realists about human beings.
especially in profit economy. OF
course it cannot be expected that
the workers in this country are go
ing to continue along on wage
scales that don't meet their living
needs. They're not interested in
economic theories.
"They're going to say to us in the
Senate-you check initiation and
bring about some rollback Of prices,
and control profits before you ask
US to quit asking for wage in
creases."
Confirming organized labors own
figures, Morse insisted that "There
has not been a substantial wage
increase in any basic industry in
this country, in which the industry
did not raise prices at least twice
the amount needed to meet the
wage increases, in many instances
many times twice"
"We cannot justify as a national
policy profiteering on the neces-
sites of life" the COP Senator
warned his fellow Congressman.
"We are going to find ourselves
inevitably involved in increased la
Dor unrest in the months ahead"
Morse quoted letter endorsing
the Labor Extension bill which he
had just received from Cyrus L.
Eaton, Cleveland banker and indus
who told Morse that "Pas-
sage of the Labor Extension Bill
would be of distinct service not
only to capital and labor but to the
entire nation"

Butchers Win
Wage Boosts

I Philadelphia (LPA)-Meat Cut
ters in the mid-Atlantic region won
substantial wage hikes last week
when their union, the Amalgamat-
ed Meat Cutters e. Butcher Work
men-AFL negotiated new contracts
with four big grocery chains.
More than 2700 unionists in
Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Del
aware are covered by the new con-
tract with American Stores. the
Baltimore Markets, A&P, and Food
Fair Stores. Pay increases Of IS
to IS week were won, and con-
tract clauses on hours, overtime
and vacations were strengthened.
Victory came when two Of the
chains met union demands as their
employees were preparing to take
strike votes. The agreements were
ratified by workers, and the other
two chains fell into line.
Leon Schachter, president of the
Phila. Joint Council said that the
contract with the Big Four" will
be a model for agreements with in
dependent meat stores, and the
benefits will be extended to sew
eral thousands more Of the unions
members.
He also disclosed that the union
had agreed to cooperate with the
companies in an effort to improve
store efficiency thereby making it
unnecessary to reflect wage gains
in higher consumer prices.
Meantime Rabbi Aaron Glatzer
president Of the Meat Cutters Lo-
cal AGA in Philadelphia announced
that the local had won fifty peg
cent increase in the guaranteed an
nual wage Of schochim (kosher kill
ers). The schochtim, who are class
ed as professional workers, will
now make $78O0 a year.

SoIons Unmoved
BY Reports On
Housing Woes

Washington LPA)-"How can
they be that way in an election
year," was the query of three
members of the United Auto Work
ers who were sent by their local
last week to talk to the congress-
men from their district about rent
controls.
Welder Vernon jenkins, pipe fit
ter Terry Trout and tool maker
Steward Potts told Senator Homer
Ferguson (R., Mich.) about a pic
ture they had seen in Detroit Free
Press the previous day. The picture
showed a woman with new set of
triplets and two other young chill
dren. The family house had burned
down and they were going to live
in a garage. "That's nothing" the
Senator told them, at happens all
the time"
The three union men are from
Kaiser Frazer local at Willow Run,
where, according to them, housing
conditions are really bad. "There
are houses made of packing crates" !"
they said, "all along the main high
way to the plant, with no running
water anywhere near them. Trail
ers sell for $1,000 and $4,000 dollars
and the houses Kaiser built sell for
$4,000 to $4,000. When the COM
pany put up the houses they gave
veterans preference but none of the
workers in the plant could afford
them SO they went to management
men.
Senator Ferguson told the auto
workers that the Republican Policy
Committee is against "regimenta-
tion" but is going along with the
30-day extention of the current
rent-control law. Rep. Harold F.
Youngblood (R., Mich) wouldn't
even go that far. He gave the boys
a flat mo" in advance to anything
they might propose in connection
with rent controls. 'It is Young
blood's firm conviction, they said,
"that the only way to solve the
housing problem is to raise rents so
that people will double up"
The Youngblood approach hasn't
solved anything in Ypsilanti, the
nearest town to the Willow Run
plant, where single rooms are now
renting for SIG a week. A few of
the fellows, it seems, have been
sleeping in the plant. They just
find themselves nice soft spot on
the floor and, unless a plant guard
comes along, they're set for the
night.
Rep. George G. Sadowski 3D.,
Mich.) was sympathetic, so the
delegation told him about Wayne
where one landlord is getting $50
a month for one room and kitchen
apartments without bathroom faci-
lities. AS if $50 isn't enough, he
has petitioned to have the rents
raised to $40 in return for which
he will install one bathroom for the
entire house. Other apartment own
ers in town are keeping their places
vacant in order to force permits for
rent raises.
"Most of the men in the Willow
Run plant" they said, "make about
5000 a month. And even the ones
who live in Detroit drive 80 miles
each way which piles up an awful
lot of mileage on their car or costs
So day busfare. Quite a few drive
from Flint which is 70 miles one
way and some even come from To-
ledo."
The three UAW members are
going back to the plant and tell the
fellows who sent them to Washing
ton what sort of a reception they
got here. "Come November" they
said, "we'll let those Congressman
know how we feel"

Court Orders Death OF
Company Garment Union

Kansas City-The Donnelly Gar
ment Company was ordered by the
Circuit Court of Appeals to discs
tablish a company union and to re-
fund dues collected since 1887.
Effect of the court decision in
the case, which originated in 1888,
will be to force the refund of $780,
900 in dues, it was estimated by
Cliff Langsdale, attorney for the
International Ladies Garment
Workers Union.
The case arose when the ILGWU
charged the independent union was
dominated by the company in viola
tion of the Wagner Act. The Ma
tional Labor Relations Board, in
1910 directed the company to dis
establish all relations with the
union and to reimburse dues de-

| Inc university VI TEXAS anu pldlls
to enter the merchandising field
upon completion of her present
good will and fashion ambassador
tour.
Miami was the first stop on her
nation wide tour of 80 major Am
erican cities, and her trip will end
June 10th in Little Rock, Ark.
Chinese food is recommended
especially for you who would re-
duce, that is if you go lightly on
the noodles and rice. Chinese food
is particularly nutritious because of
it's high vegetable content, Chinese
cabbage, bamboo shoots, celery, etc.
1t is also full of the essential vi
tamins and minerals.
There are some very good brands
of complete Chinese dinners pack
aged in cans which make an excel
lent meal for the girl living alone.
An important Miami fashion CO.
ordinator says the 1913 girl will
have the dainty-lady look. She will
carry a pastel parasol, wear swish
ing taffeta or organdy petticoats
under full skirted cottons and
match her pastel slippers to her
dress. She'll even wear pastel tint
ed nylons.
The idea of the parasol is to pro-
tect her pink and white complexion.
She'll wear two-piece cotton en-
sembles and extravagant lacy eve
ming gowns, and demure rainbow
tinted frocks off set by contrasting
petticoats.
She'll also wear sleek crepe after
noon gown in navy, black or pro-
vocative point and over the frock
she'll wear fitted light pastel
coat of either linen or pique.
However, the Paris openings dis
closed fully half the dresses, suits
and coats were in black or heavily

decorated in flowers
and feathers.
And waistlines were so thin the
models seemed to have been truss

too, are startlingly low.
