Hoover. Dewey Plon Return
To Dole, AFL und CIO Worn

| aSnlngJOn (LPA "A kepuDll-
can-controlled Congress, Thomas f.
Dewey predicts, will overhaul our
national social security system.
And it's likely to do it by substi-
tuting the pre-New Deal system of
relief handouts at standards set in
each of the 48 states. That is the
view of labor officials here who
deal with social security problems.
The AFL is asking former Presi-
dent Herbert Hoover's commission
on government reorganization a
couple of questions on this score.
They're understood to be especial
ly incensed about a NY Times re-
port that the Hoover commission
will recommend "a drastic over
haul" of social security programs.
"The concept of insurance protec-
ton for old age, unemployment
benefits, ETC., may be abandoned in
favor Of the general concept of re-
lief on the basis of individual need" ;"
the Times reports. AFL officials
are asking Hoover whether this is
leak" of what his commission
will propose, or a "think piece" by
a Times writer.
"Uncle Tom Dewey's claims that
he will improve social security
ring false" commented Van A.
Bittner, chairman Of the CLOS Soc
ial Security Committee. "The re-
cord-which Uncle Tom forgets-
shows that the Republicans in Con-
gress and in the Hoover commiss-
ion want to substitute the relief
dole for sound social security insur-
ance. They want to substitute the
pressures of the local State-house
lobbyists for sound federal con-
trolls"
A warning along the same line
was sounded by the AFL's director
of social insurance activities, Mel
son Cruikshank, speaking last week
to the Natl Conference Of Catholic
Charities.
consistent with our longstand-
ing traditions Of independence on
the part of each individual provid-
ing for security thru personal eff
fort, our people have always alb
horred the idea of government
dole and public charity. The method
of social insurance enables them to
engage in mutual self help and to
rely on their interdependence on
one another to provide against the
hazards that are characteristic of
industrial society.
"While we have a network of
social insurance in effect, | wish to
point out that at this time there
are serious threats to the whole
concept, and there is a steady drift
in the direction of governmental
charity. 1t is my contention that a
agency cannot at
tempt to meet needs on this basis |
and that when the attempt is made
in order to protect public funds it
is inevitable that we resort to the
test and the indignities asso-
ciated with it."

Guaranteed Wage
Found Aid To
Employees Morale

Washington, D. c. OLNS).-
Workers have benefited psycholo-
gically from guaranteed wage
plans, it is revealed in compre-
hensive survey Of such plans re-
leased by EVAN Clague, Commiss-
ioner Of the Bureau Of Labor Sta
tistics.
Management, labor, and employees
interviewed during the course of
the bureaus survey emphasized
above all the beneficial effects of
the plans upon employees morale
and the individuals sense Of secur-
ity. This aspect appeared to be
even more important than the econ
omic effects of the plans.
1t was recognized in the report
that the guaranteed wage, at its
present stage Of development, is
not a major factor in solving the
problem Of instability in the econ
omic system.
The report, which is the result
of an extensive study of BAT guar
anteed wage plans, and a detailed
analysis Of 62 selected cases, is dis
cussed in the October Labor Infor-
nation Bulletin, just released by
the U. S. Department of Labor.
Originally undertaken in con-
nection with the Office of War
Mobilization and Reconversions'
guaranteed wage study, the bur-
eau's latest report contains much
new material not included in its re-
port to the OWMR.

Washington (LPA)-Rural chill

Washington (LPA) = Adolph J.
Rahm of st. Louis has been elected
vice-president of the American
Newspaper Guild for the midwest
region, after a heated election in
which the Guilds international ex-
ecutive board had the final say.
Because more than 800 ballots were
uncounted for technical reasons
mailed late, lost in the mail-the
decision of the ANG election COM
mittee was appealed. The board de-
cided last week to count all ballots
from all locals, on the grounds that
election rules in the ANG consti-
tuition were intended to expedite
matters and not to prevent valid
votes cast from being counted. Fin
al tally: Rahm, 1878; Ray j. Kuhn
of Bay City, Mich, 1895.

while output Of hot rolled products
rose from 345, 800 to 361, 500.
A metric ton Is 2,240 pounds.
The most important factors in
these gains. the report said, were
continued deliveries OF coal above
ALLEGATIONS, higher proportionate
consumption of scrap and satisfac-
tory arrival of high-grade ore from
Sweden.
Electric power shortages and
breakdowns during September pre-
vented achievement of an ever
higher rate of production.
Military government officials were
prodding Ruhr miners to higher coal
production and the report predicted
further efficiency could be expected
as mining machinery was recondi-
toned and replaced.
On the food front, officials of the
bizone acknowledged difiiculty In
meeting the September meat ration
with low deliveries of livestock. Food
imports from abroad continued high,
however, notably in bread grains.

partment to take part IN Public

|. The Mayor said, II am advised
that an additional increase at this
time in the rates which the COM
pany is permitted to charge is un-
merited for numerous reasons. prin-
cipal among which is the fact that

that its program of expansion and

which would amount to more than

Wide Hunt for Fugitive
In Baltimore Ho|dup
Ended in Virginia

A lone Virginia State trooper,
boarding bus on hunch, put an
end late yesterday to wide search
for Baltimore holdup suspect, who
had eluded hundreds of policemen
for two days
The suspect. John Edward Webb,
jr.. %. of Grottoes, Va, and Balti-
more, is being held in the Rocking
ham County Jail. Harrisonburg, Va,
under s25,000 bond on a fugitive
warrant for Maryland.
He is accused of perpetrating two
Baltimore holdups Friday night,
then leading a corps of policemen
on wild 95-mile-per-hour chase
through Howard and Prince Georges
Counties into Montgomery County
Although the suspect wrecked a
stolen car near Burtonsville on the
Sandy Spring-Laurel road, he fled
from the scene before pursuing po-
licemen could nab him.
Arrested at Charlottesville.
Webb was arrested on a Trail
ways bus yesterday, II miles west
of Charlottesville, by Virginia State
Trooper E. C. Riner. He was un-
armed and offered no resistance.
Trooper Riner said he decided to
board the bus because the trail had
become hot" in the Staunton-
Charlottesville area. He spotted
Webb Immediately from a descrip-
ton furnished by the Maryland
State police, and placed him under
arrest. The mans wife, Mrs. Mary
Elizabeth Webb, was with him.
In addition to the Friday burg
laries. Webb is wanted by Baltimore
police for questioning in connection
with series of recent holdups.
According to the police. Webbs
identity was established after they
developed roll of film found in the
car wrecked near Burtonsville. The
pictures were of a Catonsville, Md.
girl. who directed police to the
mother Of the suspect. The mother
said Webbs wife lived in Grottoes
Mill Race Drained.
Meanwhile. Virginia police learned
that an automobile had been driven
into mill race near Grottoes. They
drained it and found the car, un-
occupied.
The car had been stolen Saturday
night from the garage of Robert S
Thomas, 104 Sunnyside road. Silver
Spring.
Then they found that Webb and
his wife had left for Staunton.
Trooper Webb was on the road
between Charlottesville and Staun-
ton. When the bus came along he
decided to take look at the pas
sengers. He found Webb.
How the Baltimore suspect got
through the dragnet spread near
Laurel by at least 200 State, County
and city policemen, remained a
mystery,
