Fears Price War
In Garment Field
II Exemntions Stay

NEW YORK (LPA) - A dis
astrous price war in the gar
ment field will result if an ex-
emption for retail establishments
in the House bill remains when
the 75-cent minimum wage bill
is enacted into law.
That prediction was made by
Erwin Feldman, director of the
Natl Assn of House Dress Ma
nufacturers, in regard to the pro-
vision exempting retail establish
ments manufacturing goods for
resale, from the wage-hour COW
erage.
Wages will be slashed along
with prices, he warned, in a let
ter to unions and manufacturers
groups, urging them to act swift
ly to mobilize oposition to the
exemption.
1 Million Eliminated
Both houses have passed bills
to raise the minimum wage un-
der the Fair Labor Standards
act from the present 40 cents to
rs cents. However, the House
eliminated about 100000 from
the protection of hte law, while
adding only $50, 900. The Senate
added handful of new workers
but knocked out about 25O,OOO
now covered.
The two bills must now go to
a House Senate conference COM
mittee Sept. 25 which will try to
draft a bill acceptable to both
bodies.
1t was the southern bloc which
led the fight to reduce coverage
and If possible forestall the rs
cent level. Observers here be-
lieve that the best that can be
hoped for this year is the Senate
version or something close to II
because of the strength of that
bloc and its allies among Repub-
licans.

McGraih Assails
A&P Advertisements
As False, Improper

WASHINGTON (LPA) - In
one of his first statements as At
torney General, former Senator
]. Howard McGrath this week
cracked back hard at the adver-
tiSements being run by the A&P
stores attacking the Justice De-
partment's new antitrust suit
against them.
McGrath said the ALP ads
falsely state the position of the
Department of Justice and the
consequences of successful pro-
secution of the recently institut-
ed ALP antitrust suit.
"The self-serving statements
contained in the advertisements" "
McGrath said, "are not novel but
constitute a defense ALP inter-
posed to the criminal case charg-
ing the same offenses. Having
paid maximum fines totaling
S175,000 rather than ask the
Supreme Court to review its con-
viction, it seems odd that APP
should now publicly advertise
the same arguments repudiated
by both the District Court and
the Court of Appeals.
"In view of the fact that the
allegations in the complaint have
already been established in the
criminal case beyond a reason
able doubt, the Department anti
cipates no difficulty in proving
the allegations in its recent civil
suit. 1t would appear that A&P
is now making an appeal to the
public by the expenditure of
large sums in a publicity cam
paign seeking special treatment
accorded to no one else under
the antitrust laws. This of
course, cannot deter the Depart
ment in the performance of its
plain duty to enforce the anti
trust laws, nor influence a court
of the United States.
"The Department does not
consider such a method appro-
pirate for the trial of such suits.
1t is for the court, after consider
ing all the evidence, to decide
the questions raised by this anti
trust suit"

Money Bar To
Good Health

NEW YORK LPA) - The
real reason the United States
doesn't have enough doctors and
hospitals is that there are not
enough paying patients" to sup
port them, Federal Security Ad-
ministrator Oscar Ewing told the
National Association of Retail
Druggists here. National health
insurance, and the resulting dis
tribution of medical purchasing
power, would go a long way to
remedy this serious bar to good
health.

CARE PACKAGE
As CIO
Gifts Abroad
HeIiday Treaf Can
Be Sent Workers

NEW YORK, N. Y. - A new
CARE Holiday Package was des-
cribed today by Irving Abram-
son, chairman of the National
CIO Community Services Com
mittee, as an excellent and
timely" way for CIO members to
express American solidarity with
European trade unionists whose
grim wages provide no leeway
for celebration,
Abramson recently returned
from a tWo-month trip to Eu-
rope, where he was appalled, by
the "very grim" lot of European
labor. Wages are so inadequate
to cover living costs that work
ers and their families are gener-
ally existing on near-starvation
levels" he found, while for the
unemployed, aged and war
manned existence is "indescrib-
ably precarious." In many cases,
he said, the aid dispensed by the
CIO Community Services Com
mittee through CARE to free
trade unionists literally consti-
tuted the difference between
starvation and life.
The new CARE package, pric-
ed at $3.50, which features
whole canned turkey, can be
ordered for Thanksgiving or
Christmas delivery, Abramson
pointed out.
The turkeys in CARES Holi-
day Package, are the famous
Beltsville Whites, bred for min
imum bone and maximum meat
and large enough to feed as
many as IL people. They are
specially steam-roasted and can
ned in their own juices for the

Time For Plain Talk

pace and we read that "the fact
finding procedure is preposter-
GUS"
Mr.. Editor advised me to look
at the record. o. X, let's take a
squint. What is the fact finders
report? Boil it down to very few
words, at the risk of over-slmpll-
fication (I got that in before you
did, Mr.. Editor,) it just means
that a group of men looked over
the issues and recommended a
"basis" for negotiations. Many
working people, rightly from
their point of view, did not ike
the narrowing of this basis OF
negotiation. But at this point Mr..
Editor and his fellow drum beat
ers set up a clatter for accept
ance of the recommendation.
Sad to relate, they reckoned
not with the feelings of their
masters, the owners OF industry.
The union accepted the recon-
mendation but the industry boys
decided not to accept. In fact, in
the spacious conference room OF
the directors of j. P. Morgan q
Co. fateful decision was made.
1t was decided that organized Ia
Dor is to get "a bloody nose"
(note the quotation marks, Mr..
Editor) and that "the advantages
of Taft Hartley are to be fully
applied" Further, all former ne
gotiators for industry who are
on first st-name basis with negoi-
ators for labor are to be removed
summarily and replaced by those
more willing to carry out the
new get-tough line.
So tune up the drums, MIR.
Editor, you are about to receive
orders to quicken thee adence.

to monopolize the dissemination
ing a competing radio station.
The suit was first made pub
lie in Washington by Attorney
General j. Howard McGrath but
was filed in the Federal District
Court of Cleveland. Named as
defendants are the publishing
company and four of its officers,
including the editor of the Jour
nal.
The government charges that
the Lorain Journal refuses to ac-
cept advertising from enter
prises which advertise over radio
stations WEOL and WEOL-FM
in Lorain and nearby Elyria
in an attempt to gain control OF
the radio outlets.
The government also charges
that the Journal refuses to ac-
cept the advertisements of con-
Germs which buy space in the
Lorain Sunday News, a weekly
newspaper, and also has sought
to keep the Elyria Chronicle
Telegram from circulating in
Lorain.
The government suit is a civil
action seeking a court order
stopping the allegedly monopol-
istic practices. If an order is OBJ
tained under the Sherman anti
trust act, the Journal must obey
it or be held in contempt with
heavy fines and Jail sentences
the possible penalties.

are meant to look like baseball
