SteeIworkers Demand
Production Increase
As Convention Opens
BY the Associoisd Press

BOSTON, May 11.-After de-
manding that the country's steel
makers increase their annual pro-
duction by nearly 10 per cent, the
CIO steelworkers today opened a
convention which is due to shape
one of the major patterns in 1949
wage demands on American IN
duStry.
Archbishop Richard J. Cushing OF
Boston told the initial session the
people must have a prior claim
- In the great struggle between
labor and management.
The Catholic prelate called on the
steelworkers to give the public good
"a top place in its program" and
declared:
ITO assume that the only rights
involved in an industrial dispute
are those OF capital and labor Is a
serious mistake-and as between
labor and management that party
will gain most in the long run who
shows the greatest regard for the
rights of the community and Tor
the interests Of the people"
Cites Labor's Opportunity.
Archbishop Gushing said "organ-
ized labor has a magnificent oppor-
tunity to sell its cause to the Amer
ican people and therefore to the
whole world" He offered this pro-
gram as "a priests word OF advice
Thank God for the power that
organized labor has acquired. Use
that power to preserve and to push
forward every legitimate right"
The 5000 delegates were greeted
last night by an official report
blasting the steel industry as the
Nations "real bottleneck," and an
nouncing union second front" In
politics.
The report, from Philip Murray,
president of the Steelworkers and
of the CIO, and other union lead
ers, attacked the steel industry for
"phony" production increases since
1916.
Business AssaiIed.
It turned on American business as
a whole for what the report called
an attempt to freeze" wages when
profits are fantastic.
The report said
To-day steel shortages mean less
work for automobile workers, elec-
trical workers, metal fabricators,
miners and a host of other workers
and industries dependent on the
volume of steel supplies"
1t called for:
Immediate expansion OF basic
steelmaking facilities to support ad-
ditional annual steel production of
at least 100000 tons of ingots. We
want a real increase and an ade-
quate increase, not a paper one or
puny increase"
The report put January, 1948
Ingot capacity at 94,233, ,460 tons and
said that was about million and a
quarter tons below the wartime
peak.
Statement Is Quoted.
The officers statement said that
the union second front" would be
"a deadly serious assault on
the political lackeys of business
and added that in this presidential
election year:
Failure of the people to vote is
clearly an invitation to disaster at
the hands of the servants OF cor
porate wealth and bigotry."
After estimated 1947 net corporate
oro6te Il, the TIpited (fafes aga
new peak" Of 174 billion dollars,
the steelworkers officers added
"' the cost-price-proflt picture
for 1948 is even more favorable
than that for 1947.
"' Business would like to tie
wages to productivity increases while
leaving prices and profits free to

rise as much as the market will bear.
ut should be remembered by those
who insist on freezing the present
relationship between productivity
and wages that the present balance
." is one in large part created
by business alone prior to the emer-
gence OF strong unions in Americas
mass industries"

THE BELL TOLLS

BY LEoNORD H. BELL
1t seems that as a race, we will
never learn to use our votes in
a manner that will reap bigger
rewards in life, liberty and the
pursuit of happiness for all Of
the race, instead of just for our
selves.
The recent announcement OF
leading Negro paper that they
had appealed to Henry Wallace
to withdraw his candidacy for
the President Of the United
States is further proof of this
great weakness.
Does this paper know, as ev-
eryone else does, that the token
gesture toward setting forth a
platform of civil liberties made
by Mr.. Truman, was only ges-
ture. And that it was only ex-
banded by the advent into the
platform making of Mayor Hum
phrey, who insisted that each
point be spelled out and pledg-
ed? Mr.. Truman and the Demo-
cratic Party at first, had no in
tention of proceeding further than
a merae gesture for fear that
they would ALLEVIATE the South
ern wing Of the Party. And until
there is more political freedom
in the South, that franchise to
all Of the people, the solid South
will control either through fill
buster or sheer numbers both
the House and the Senate and
consequently prevent passage OF
any laws guaranteeing civil lib
critics to Negroes.
Will we ever learn? Or shall
we pass up this one good chance
to break up the two old parties
that have given us only pro-
misses?
Even if a third party doesn't
win, at least it will carry in both
liberal and Negro congressman,
as well as established greater
political freedom for all Of the
people.

Working with such fabulous

of "feeP' for the theatre. The

conducting goes. He had just
stepped from that role with the

being given promotion from

But his violin was his first love

his success to his experience of
