Job Outlook Of
June Graduates
Still Is Rosy

Washington (LPA) = For the
more than 100000 boys and girls
who graduate from high school this
year, the job outlook is still bright
est in the industries traditionally
hiring vast numbers of workers.
The June job seeker isn't likely to
find job with an airline or in the
rapidly growing plastic industry
or in electronics or television-and
it's because these industries still
employ relatively few people.
In fact the Bureau of Labor Sta
tistics, which has a whole division
whose name is "Occupational Out
look" and whose job is to project
job opportunities into the future
says that this year best employ
ment prospects are in the rail
roads, and iron and steel indus
tries, and in the skilled trades.
BIS economists warn that in the
"glamor" industries like aviation
and electronics, only especially
well-qualified workers will be taken
on this year. On the other hand
they say of the rails, building
trades, metal trades, Simply be-
cause those industries are SO large.
they need great numbers of new
workers each year to replace those
who die, retire or leave for other
reasons"
Opportunities to enter skilled
trades are generally more favor
able than in past years, "BLS finds
because of good business conditions
and the small numbers of new
workers fully trained in the crafts
during the war and depression
years. Just to replace present work
ers, more than 10000 new machin-
lists and 10000 new tool and die
makers will be required during the
next 10 years. In these trades and
in the building industry, high
school graduates are urged to in
vestigate apprenticeship programs
operated by unions and employers,
and not just take "the first job
that comes along"

Taft Hartley's 80-day strike injunc-
tions are not enough, that industry
wide strikes "to enforce the de-
mands of the labor pool' must be
outlawed entirely. Interestingly
enough, Johnston admitted that fed
eral emergency seizure of mines
has been Fictitious"
He repeated the operators chest
nut that tine unions pension plan
is unsound-a statement which was
completely refuted two weeks ago
by a leading group insurance ex-
pert. In facf Johnston went so far
as to deny that there is any fra
tional community of interest be-
tween mine workers in 2S states"
When Rep. John Lesinski d.
Mich.), the pro-union member OF
the committee who has been most
faithful in attendance at its hear
ings, began quizzing him, Johnston
backed down little, but not very
much.
He had to admit that the "capi-
tai levy" is quickly recaptured from
consumers, and that few mines
have worked out pension plans of

But the NCA lawyer would not
concede that the UNIV had played
any particular part in raising the
nations coal miners from one of
the worst paid to one of the best

gress of the industry" he says.

Rail Labor Act
Fairer On Free
Speech Than TIL

Washington (LPA) - The con-
trast between the Taft Hartley Act
and the Railway Labor Act on the
issue of "free speech" for employees
was forcefully brought out this
week when the Natl Mediation
Board, which administers the lat
ter law, set aside results of ar
election on the Chicago & Southern
Airlines.
The board took this action after
the management had conducted g
campaign to try to induce it's en-
ployes to reject the Brotherhood OF
Railway Clerks or any other union
as bargaining agency. Among 9TH
er things, it urged them to vote
for the company itself as bargain
ing representative.
Unlike the Taft Hartley Act, the
Railway Labor Act = which covers
airlines as we'll as railroads-out-
laws such interference in an cleo
tion-even in the guise of the exer-
else of "free speech"-and SO the
Mediation Board ordered a new
election among the nearly 500 en-
ployes affected. This is to take
place as soon as a mediator com
pletes arrangements. In the earlier
balloting, the Railway Clerks got
plurality but fell somewhat shy
of a majority.
Meanwhile, President George M
Harrison of the Railway Clerks an
nounced that the union will seek
criminal prosecution of the man.
agement for its interference with
the voting.
Under the "teeth" of the Rail
way Labor Act, rail arrangements
are liable to penalties ranging up
to fines of $4,000 or Jail terms of
six months, or both, for such in
terference-and each day of viola
ton rates as separate offense.

case calling for indictment Of this

when finished will be placed before

Washington (LPA)- President
John l.. Lewis of the United Mine
Workers accepted last week a court
order-another injunction from
Judge t. Alan Goldsborough-and
announced that he will admit Joseph
IE. Moody, president of the Southern
Coal Producers Assn, to the btu
minous bargaining conference.
The UNIV suggested that the ne
gotiators get down to business i'm
mediately, over the weekend if pos
sible.
On June 80 the bituminous con-
tract, covering nearly 350,OC0 coal
miners expires, and if new agree
ment is not concluded in the mean
time a strike is expected.
While the injunction request filed
/ by NLRB General Counsel Robert
Denham was pending before Colds
borough, the UNIV submitted a
brief charging the Southern Coal
Producers Assn with failure to
bargain in good faith for the past
seven years. At no time was the
union unwilling to bargain with the
individual southern operators, or
their local associations, but it stat
ed it felt that the inclusion of
SCPA would only serve to compli-
cate the negotiations.
The injunction, issued under the
provisions Of the Taft Hartley law,
requires the UNIV to accept the
SCPA as bargaining agent for
it's members until the NLRB rules
on the case. Hearings before a trial
examiner begin this week.
While the SCPA was arguing in
court that it must be recognized
as a bargaining "holding company
for nearly score of southern op-
orators groups, spokesmen of the
National Coal Assn were asking
the Joint Committee on Labor Man
agement Relations to outlaw indus
Itry-wide bargaining.
Miners producing nearly 70 per
cent of the nations bituminous coal
and affiliated with NCA. It's presi-
dent, L. Ebersole Gaines, and its
attorney Forney Johnston, told the
Congressional committee that "dif-
ficult and unusual provisions such
as national union welfare and pen
sion plans should be excluded from
the subjects for compulsory bar
gaining" and industry-wide strikes
declared illegal.

STANDARD
(C0ntinued From Page OHe)


Mr.. H. M. Reed, Jr., presided for
the Company during the confer
ences assited by Misters Schneirov
and Richards from the Personnel
Department, along with V. s.
Schory of the Kokomo Works;
Bert Swinnerton and John Reed of
Of the Tiffin Works; Mr. Adcock,
Manager of the San Pablo Works
and w. H. Kelly, Manager of Lo-
cal 26; Morgan and Freschi of Lo-
cal 80; Clawges and Coppola of Lo-
cal ITS Trenton, supported the
Union officials in the negotiations.
The Standard agreements were
the only contracts interpreted as ter
minating this year in the Sanitary
industry where agreements are in
effect. Under the Taft Hartley
Anti-Labor Bill this necessitated
filing of Petitions from the four
Locals involved with four differ
ent Regional Labor Boards through
out the country, in order to retain
the Union Security Clauses in the
four new contracts. Four elections
were held between March and the
last of April, and out of a total of
5000 eligible votes, only 40 en-
ployees voted against maintaining
Union Security.
We are informed that the four
Locals effected have now ratified
the actions Of their conferees and
officers in Pittsburgh, and the con-
tracts are now in full force and
effect for one year including a
60-day reopening clause to dis
cuss wage matters.
Local 175 has set date with
the Trenton management to take
up as wage inequities the follow
ing proposals.: Blockers and Casers
to receive 1925 per hour-Inequity
adjustments for Mouldmakers on
work not comparable with the high
er earning pieces-Maintenance
men to be paid a minimum of $1.75
per hour-and few other scattered
piece work items effecting differ
ent departments.
During the conferences Mr.. Theo-
dore Mueller, President of the AM
erican Radiator & Standard Sani-
tary Corporation, addressed the
Joint meeting and stressed several
matters that were vital to the Com
pany in successfully maintaining
their place in the industry, and he
commended the Union, its officers
and members, for their reasonable
efforts in attaining benefits for
their people by intelligent collec-
tive bargaining.
The shop average from door to
door at the Trenton Plant, in earn
ings before the application of the
increase, was $1.6l per hour. 1t is
conservatively estimated that the
change in the vacation method Of
qualification will mean that APP
proximately $50 employees will get
week of paid vacation this year
that otherwise would not been pro-
vided, due to the qualifying date.
We understand that Vice Presi-
dent Wheatley has officially noti-
fled the Company in Pittsburgh of

new contracts, and in behalf of the
officers and members of the Lo-
calls involved, expressed apprecia-
ton on their behalf for the cordial,
friendly and fair consideration
given to the Unions propositions
during the conferences.-O. c. l75.

Washington (LPA)--With labor
and liberal forces holding fast in
their opposition to the Mundt-Nixon
Communist registration bill, the
likelihood of its passing the Senate
this week is slim.
They would me nil, had not SEN
ators prepared to ignore it in the
last minute legislative rush been
stirred up by crowd of about 5000
"Mundt bill foes" who appeared in
Washington last week, most of
them members Of organizations
generally thought to be under Com
munist influence.
Leon Henderson, chairman of
Americans for Democratic Action,
of which many AFL and CIO lead
ers are members, charged flatly
that the purpose of the demonstra-
tion was to secure passage of the
bill, in hope of gaining sympathy
through "martyrdom for the Com
munist Party"
The marchers, bearing signs say
ing Defeat the Mundt Bill', "No
Thought Control in America" par
AIDED in front of the Capitol and
the Senate and House office build
ings. They separated into three
groups, one of which picketed the
White House, while the others sent
delegations into Republican and
Democratic national committee
headquarters. Many of them wore
"Wallace for President" buttons.
Some Congressional leaders in
terpreted the move as an attempt
to credit Henry Wallace's followers
with the defeat Of Legislation which
had little or no chance of passing.
Sen. Homer Ferguson (R.,
Mich.), member of the Senate
Judiciary Committee, which is con-
sidering the Mundt bill, said; "Sen-
atorial notice may quite properly
be taken of pressures of the sort
to which we are now being sub
jected."
Fearing just such a reaction,
Emil Macy, secretary-treasurer of
the United Auto Workers, wired
Committee Chairman Alexander
Wiley (R., Wis.,:
"Don't be suckers for the left
hook Henry Wallace and his Com
munist collaborators seem to be
trying to provoke you and the Sen
ate into passing the Mundt-Nixon
subversive activities control bill.
"Let's keep the Communist Par
ty, its front organizations, its
ground and out Of the cracks in
stooges and dupes above the
the woodwork so that they can be
dealt with by facts, reason and
existing law under the Constitu-
tion including the Bill Of Rights"
In a similar vein, Socialist presi-
Dental candidate Norman Thomas,
who the previous week end testi-
fled before the committee against
the Mundt bill wired: "Do not let
justifiable irritation at tactics of
Communist Wallace alliance influ-
ence your committees critical con-
sideration of the Mundt bill. Pow
ers given to attorney general in
bill are subject to enormous abuse" Z"
AFL legislative representative
Lewis Hines pointed out in this
testimony against the proposal:
encouragement should be given
to organized labor as the one in
strumentality in America that can

The board will provide per diem
employees with instruction kits on
how to conduct Taft Hartley elec-
tion. AS they will be sworn in as
government employees, the 1947
laws requirement that the gov
ernment must poll workers before
union shop contract is legal will
be met.
Numerous political cross-currents
affected the Committees decision
to take this way, rather than the
Ives-Landis. way of meeting the
problem.
Some moderate Republicans, like
Sen. Irving Ives tN. Y.) and Rep.
Gerald Lands (Ind.) wanted their
bill brought to vote before the
November elections SO that they
could partially atone for having
voted for Taft Hartley when it
passed Congress last year.
"Principled" Taft Hartleyites,
like Sen. Joseph Ball (R., Mimi
on the other hand, oppose even this
minor amendment to their favorite
law, and have even suggested that
if it's too much trouble to hold
the elections then the union shop
should be abolished altogether.
Consistent anti Taft Hartley
Legislators, who are represented on
the Joint Committee by Sens.
James Murray (Mont.) and Claude
Pepper (Fla.) and Reps. John Les
inski (Mich.) and Augustine Kelly
(Pa.), all Democrats, informally
polled a number of trade union
leaders. They found out that what
organized labor wants is the ability
to conclude union shop contracts
expeditiously. Unions do not fear
the results of polls which have been
SO per cent in their favor.
They agreed with the Commit
tees liberal minority that the inn
portant thing is for unions to be
free to conclude union security con
tracts without waiting for the
NLRB's overworked staff to con
duct its polls. If Taft Hartley is
to be amended for political pur-
poses it must be changed on some
issue more vital to the unions than
the authorization polls, they said.
They believe, as do the pro
union Congressman, that the Ives
Lands bill is the only pro-labor
amendment that had the ghost
of a chance of getting Congression-
al approval. The position of organ
lied labor, the union men made it
clear to the Committee members,
is that Taft Hartley just be re-
pealed in its entirety.
This failure of organized labor
and its friends to push for the Ives
Lands proposals may come as a
distinct disappointment to Rep.
Charles Halleck (Ind), the COPS
majority floor leader in the House.
Halleck is believed to have been
pushing the squeak amendment
to make a Republican voting record
of modifying Taft Hartley at the
request of labor.
Meanwhile, organized labor has
been making clear to the Commit
tee its determination to fight in
du.try sponsored amendments to
worsen Taft Hartley. Industry wide
collective bargaining, and union
participation in setting-up health
ana retirement funds have been
the main targets of the reaction
aries attacks upon democratic la
bor-management relations during
two weeks of hearings.
