Neither he nor Carey, Deakin
declared, had been near the British

knew he was lying, TUG General
Secretary Vincent Tewson added,
but it was the Russians job to set
the anti-TUC propaganda line for
American and English communists.
Carey and Deakin made last
effort to save the WFTU
with a motion suspending it's
activities for year, taking it out
of the "cold war" But the Com
unions rejected this.
They were determined to keep the

at the cost of the withdrawal of

propaganda network, Bri-
tish union chiefs point out.

Arifhm efic Of
Minimum Wages

Washington (LPA) - For the
first time, the US would have a
statutory minimum wage that APP
proaches what is necessary to
health, safety and general we'll
being" if a 81 minimum becomes
federal law, Labor Secretary Tobin
told the House Labor Committee
last week. "The wage Garner work
ing a 40-hour week around the
year would receive little over
$4,000 at this rate"
Tobn said that the 75c minimum
in the Administration bill is only
"the starting point" and the bill
provides that the 75c floor be
raised to as high as 81 on an in
dustry basis, after labor-manage-
ment-public committees find it can
be done without causing serious
unemployment.
"A 75c minimum wage today
roughly equals a 40c minimum
wage in 1885," Tobin said.

S. HiIIman Award
Presented To
DR.. Frank Graham

Washington (LPA)-Dr. Frank
P. Graham, president of the Uni
versity of North Carolina and one
of the nations leading liberals, re-
ceived the first $1,000 Sidney Hill
man Award for meritorious public
service at a Mayflower Hotel dim
ner in his honor here last week.
Cabinet officers, and members of
Congress, along with many leading
employers and trade union officials
were present at the first award
dinner to be held since the $1,0C0,-
900 Sidney Hillman Foundation
was set up to honor the memory
of the late president of Amalga-
mated Clothing Workers of AM
erica.
The award to DR.. Graham was
the biggest of total of 3O,OOO in
awards being made this year in the
form of scholarships, prizes and
grants to further Mr.. Hillman's
conceptions of enlightened labor
management relations and his
ideals of public service.
After expressing his deep and
humble gratitude for the award,
DR.. Graham reminded the humid
reds at the dinner how far Sidney
Hillman had come since his birth
as the son of a wheat merchant in
small Lithuanian village.
From a six-dollar week gar
ment cutter, he rose by merit to be
first president of the Amalgamat-
ed Clothing Workers Union, one OF
the founders of the CIO, co-chair
man of the War Production Board,
president of the Political Action
Committee, and a friend and coun
selor of President Roosevelt in
humane programs for America and
mankind" DR.. Graham said.

ed, 1--WE have the recapitulation of
the meaning of America. A pill
grim to these shores from the
tyranny of the czars, he rose by
his own character, ability and de-
votion to be one of the leaders and
interpreters of the labor movement
to those who toll, of America to
those who dream, and of a united
world to all who pray and struggle
and hope for justice, peace and
good will among men,"
DR.. Graham was presented by
Jacob S. Potofsky, Mr.. Hillman's
successor as Amalgamated pres
ident and head of the Sidney Hill
man Foundation. Greetings to DR..
Graham and those at the dinner
also came in a telegram from Pres
ident Philip Murray, who was un-
able to attend.

RANK AND FILE
PLANS MARCH
THRU GEORGIA

Atlanta UPA)-The first of
series of state meetings to set up
CIO rank-and-f file organizing teams
thruout the south was held in
Georgia last week.
Alabama, Arkansas, Fl orr d a,
North Carolina, Tennessee, Texas,
South Carolina, Mississippi and
Louisiana are planning similar
meetings as a follow-up to the en-
thusiastic south-wide conference
which spanked Operation Dixie's
1949 drive as the year began.
Southern Director Van Bittner
warned the Georgia meeting that
it will probably take some strikes
to win gains this year. Local union
members, signed up during last
years drive, are among the most
ardent of the rank-and-file organ
izers.
Latest victory below the Mason
Dixon line was an NLRB decision
this week ordering the Standard
Coosa Thatcher Co. of Ridgedale,
Tenn, to reinstate an employe fired
for union activity and allow it's
workers to organize in Textile
Workers Union of America.
In Texas, employees of the Phil
lips Chemical Company at Dumas
have chosen Oil Workers Intl
Union as their bargaining agent.

"Oilycrats."
Delegates present at the banquet
cheered wildly when Vice-President
George Baldanzi of Textile Work
ers Union emotionally described
the role which American labor
must play thruout the world. "Oqr
role in the Marshall plan must be
increased" Baldanzi declared. 1--WE
must say we want trade union
leaders sent to Europe in positions
of authority, not just as window
dressing"
communism will capture all
Europe" he maintained, mot be-
cause they're more powerful, but
because we're too stupid to see
what these people aspire to-"
Smashing applause greeted Bald
anzi's statement that we cant
beat Communism by jailing IL lead
ers in New York" but must do it
by having something better to
offer ourselves.
The "better plan" was discussed
thruout the conference not as one
I big thing, but as all the problems
facing JAW members now. Meet
ing for two days We're working
conferences on the following 20
subjects:
Building a Union Base in the
Community; Housing; Farmer La

BRITISH UNION CHIEFS
EXPLAIN WITH DEMISE

London (LPA)-There was little
rejoicing in British labor circles
this week over the death of the
World Federation of Trade Unions.
The great majority of Britain S
trade unionists, however, agreed
that no course of action but with
drawal from the WFTU was open
to its president, and one of British
labor's most important leaders,
Arthur Deakin, general secretary
Of the Transport & General Work
ers Union.
The Daily Herald controlled by
the Trades Union Congress in a
lead editorial late last week quoted
Sir Walter Citrine-long-time gen
eral secretary of the TUG, and first
president of the WFTU. In 1915
when the WFTU was founded,
Citrine had warned:
"If we once get into the maze of
politics, as surely as | am standing
az CillS IOSlIulil, ClllS lIICCl lldIIOiiol
organization will perish. 1t will
split, because the different concep-
tions of political aspiration, desire,
method and policy are so wide that
they would divide u.s."
At the fall 1913 TUG convention,
British unionists voted overwhelm-
ingly to permit their top spokes-
men to disaffiliate from the WFTU
should that step prove necessary.
They declared that the corruption
of the WFTU's original aims was
due to the Soviet bloc's determin-
alton to use the WFTU for pro-
Communist propaganda, and to
snipe at the Marshall plan for Eu-
ropean recovery.
After the TUG, the American
CIO, and the Dutch representatives
had withdrawn from the WFTU
board meeting last week, Deakin
told reporters that VASTLY Kuznet-
soy, the Russian delegate had
charged him and Secretary Treas
urer James B. Carey with going to
theft governments embassies for
instructions"
Deakin disclosed that he answer

Most Successful
Convention In
Council History

Hartford, Conn. (LPA) - "The
most successful in history" was the
term applied to the 11th annual
convention of the Conn. Industrial
Union Council after its completion
here last week.
After reelecting all of its pre-
sent officers and adopting deter
mined l3-point Legislative program,
the convention heard two stirring
speeches by Governor Chester
Bowles and President Emil Rieve
of the Textile Workers Union of
America.
Reeves talk on the need for
cheaper electric power thru public
power projects was broadcast by
six Connecticut radio stations from
the convention hall. He called for
IA New England governors confer
ence to initiate action on river
power development in view of the
fact that $4,000 kilowatt hours of
electricity costs 1861 in Hartford
today, as compared with $205 in
Chattanooga, Tenn.
Bowles was accorded a prolong-
ed standing ovation as he went to
the convention rostrum to speak.
He. praised the successful PAC
campaign which was a major fac
tor in his election as a fight "for
a principle and not for a man"
Now, he told the delegates, il was
"up to the liberal Congress in
Washington to go down the line
for the things they were elected
on"

AUTO WORKERS MEET
PRODUCE IDEAS PLUS
PLANS FOR ACTIVITY
Al - PreSident%

Milwaukee (LPA) - President
Walter P. Reuther's keynote ad-
dress to the national UAW educa-
ton conference here last week was
the pace-setter for three-day
whirlwind parley in which more
than $500 delegates kicked around
ideas from the shop and the top
and exchanged information brought
with them from all parts of the
United States and Canada.
Reuther talked about retirement
pensions and social security, which
top the auto workers contract de-
mands for this year, and about the
political future of labor, which will
be affected by whether the Demo-
cratic Congress and Administration
live up to their promises. These
two themes were discussed by
speakers in sessions each attended
by half the delegates, and then 70
working conferences, the backbone
of the giant gathering, gave them
a real going-over.
Political action came in for lot
of special attention and opinions
ranged from that of Rep. Andrew
Biemiller 3D., Wis., who held that
'labor is thru chasing the third
party rainbow" and will find its
home in the Democratic party, to
that of Professor Robert Lynd,
author of the book "Middletown" ,
who spanked plenty of rank-and-
file argument with his statement
that we need "a labor party that
would not just reward its friends
and punish its enemies" and would
snake up its mind about capital
ISM"
Lynd described the forthcoming
NAM community drive as "a super
duper Mohawk Valley formula be-
sides which the Mohawk Valley
formula is nothing" How, he ask
ed, are we going to meet this inn
mense challenge and plan ade-
quately for full employment and
security? This question rocked
many of the delegates who declar-
ed they were going back to their
locals determined to thrash it out,
along with other knotty problems
discussed during the conference.
Speaking on a nationwide radio
hook-up from a conference ban
quet at the Hotel Schroeder, form
er Interior Secretary Harold Ickes
proposed that the federal govern
ment create a trust out Of the
the money earned from tidelands
oil under our coasts, and use this
money to provide an adequate edu
cation for children thruout the
country.
"One of the most ominous as
poets Of the late and now more or
less decently inferred S0th Con-
gress." lckes declared, twas the
contrast of the speed with which it
hastened to lay out 1877 billions of
dollars for instruments of war and
the military training of our young
manhood, with its refusal to give
$500, 900, 900 for federal aid to edu-
cation"
With Truman's smashing victory
there is less chance than there was
that the States will get control Of
the tidelands, the lex asserted,
pointing out that the Dixiecrat re-
volt was financed by oil money and
a better name for them might be
