LABOR TROUBLES BESET
NATIONS RAILROADS

Washington (LPA)-The "Iron
Horse" creaked and groaned with
labor-management pains during the
past week. Major aches besetting
the railroads were these:
THE Wabash, one Of the larg-
est railroads in the country, was
paralyzed by strike of $500 en-
ployes in the train and engine SER
vice, represented by four Brother
hoods-the Locomotive Engineers,
Locomotive Firemen & Enginemen,
Trainmen, and Conductors.
They walked out after failing in
prolonged negotiations and media
tion to get a settlement of an ac-
cumulated mass of grievances. On
some of these grievances, the man
agement has stalled for years, of
ficials of the Brotherhood declared.
After the stoppage began, Pres
ident Truman named an Emergency
(Fact- Finding) Board to consider
the dispute, but the strikers refus-
ed to go back unless and until the
management showed willingness to
settle the grievances.
2-Sixteen mon operating"
unions, representing million
workers on the railroads in all
crafts except train and engine SER
vice, were still snagged in negotia-
tions with the railroads at Chicago
for settlement of their long-delay-
ed wage-hour dispute.
Last week, the unions and the
managements reached tentative
agreement on the main issue of
controversy-that is, how to apply
the 40-hour week, at 48-hours' pay,
which had previously been recon-
mended by an Emergency Board.
The board also granted a 7c an
hour immediate general wage in
crease, retroactive to last Oct. l.,
but that was accepted by both
sides.
Under the tentative settlement
on the 40-hour week issue, the
unions won their main point
namely, that except in rare in
stances, the employees shall have
two consecutive days off, these to
be Saturday and Sunday for the
bulk of the workers. Railroads had
previously fought for the right to
stagger the work-weeks in any
way they pleased.
However, the unions and man.
were still at odds on some
points-particularly on the man.
ner of applying the 40-hour week
for workers who are on monthly
salaries and monthly schedules of
hours.
Union spokesmen charged that

Baby Of House
Bolts Dixiecrats
On Minimum Wage

Washington (LPA) = The one
southern Democrat on the House
Labor Committee who voted to re-
port out the minimum wage bill
which squeaked thru by a 1872
vote-was landed last week on the
floor of the House.
Calling him the "baby" of the
House, Rep. Sidney Yates Cd, Ill.,
praised Rep. Hugo Sheridan Sims,
27-year-old ex-paratrooper, for his
part in sending the bill to the floor.
81 know that extreme pressure was
brought upon the gentleman to
vote against the BILL" Yates said,
"and that it may well have been
much more expedient for him to do
so. i am very proud to be among
his associates.
The other three southerners on
the committee all voted against
the measure, despite earlier action
by the Democratic colleagues to
approve concessions on which they
had insisted. The three who bolted
were Reps. Wood (Ga), Lucas
(Tex.) and Barden IN. c.. Of
course, the weakening measures
on which they insisted are still in
the bill as it comes to the floor.

eral Counsel Denham and the fed
eral courts.
"We believe this is the first time
in American history where either
a union or an employer was held
guilty Of violating the law for fail
ing to place some language in a
proposal made in the course of col
lective bargaining, which the EN-
ployers We're free to reject, and
frequently did.
"We have got along only because
the large majority of employers
both in the newspaper and com
mercial printing fields have
thought enough of us not to be in
sympathy with the TIL act"
Randolph also declared that the
TIL act "is continuous threat to
the very existence Of craft unions
and that "a craft union will do well
to live long enough even to get
before the NLRB."

Senate To Debate
Battered Version
Of Rent Control

Washington (LPA)-The COM
bination of southern Democrats
and midwest Republicans who last
week came out into the open on
the floors of Congress, sealed their
coalition with public votes on two
major issues: rules to stop fill
busters, and rent control. On the
vital rent control law, to replace
the one expiring March 81, the
Senate this week will debate and
vote on badly shattered measure.
The House last week passed a
so-called rent control bill which
would allow any state, city, or
county law-making body to end
rent control in their area. 1t would
extend what controls there are for
Is months, and would allow "rea-
sonable return" on reasonable
value" for every landlord on every
piece of rental property, regard
less of what the cost would be to
the tenant.
On the Estates rights" amend
ment, introduced by Rep. John Bell
Williams Cd, Miss.), total of II
Democrats ditched the Admins
tration to vote with 156 Republic
ans. Only six Republicans voted
against the local option proposal,
along with 181 Democrats and one
American Laborite.
The Senate Banking Committee,
in session two days later, sent to
the floor for debate this week a
bill which in effect allows a gem
eral 1919 rent increase in two in
stallments during the next IL
months, and proposes to end all
federal controls three months later
June 81. 1850.
The Senate's Estates rights"
amendment, approved by the same
Dixiecrat-GOP majority of the
Banking Committee would allow
state legislatures to take over con-
trolls on rents. Federal controls
would be lifted as soon as the gov
ernor notified the federal govern
ment that the legislature had en-
acted a rent control law.
The 1919 rent increase provision
is intended as substitute for the
reasonable return" section of the
House bill. 1t would allow a $50
increase Sept. 81 and another
March 81, 1850, on all rental units
where there have not already been
legal rent boosts 1546 above the
June 80, 1947, rental.

Randolph Tells Committee
How TIL Disrupts Printing
Industry Union Relations

Washington (LPA)-What does
the union which was the target OF
the greatest barrage of attacks
under the Taft-Hartley act think
of that law?
A straight-from-the-s h u ! d e /
answer came from President Wood
ruff Randolph of the Int'l Typo
graphical Union-AFL in testimony
during the past week before the
House Labor Committee.
Graphically, he told how that
act has disrupted peaceful relations
with publishers and printing shop
owners in city after city; how the
ITU has been forced to strike, OF
been made a victim of lockouts, in
a host of communities; how it has
had to spend a fortune to defend
itself from being crippled by the
TIL act.
When he finished, some Tories
on the Republican side of the com
mittee started flinging hostile
questions at him, but his quick
blunt answers took the wind from
their sails and they gave up in
short order.
Some of the major points made
by Randolph were these:
"We have been described as a
model union, an old, democratic
organization and yet were the first
to be attacked under Taft Hartley
and we have continued to receive
the worst kind of punishment from
General Counsel Robert n. Den
ham.
"We decided, shortly after the
Taft-Hartley act was passed, to go
down fighting, if we had to, rather
than submit to slow decay.
"We have been compelled to
spend over $11 100000 of members
hard-earned dues in support of
strikes and other defense activities
to preserve the union.
"We have been subjected to the
issuance of eight complaints, con-
tanning substantially identical al
legations. -.
"We have been forced to engage
in five long drawn-out NLRB pro-
ceedings, covering substantially
the entire country, at great ex-
pense to ourselves and our mem
bers. ..
I'VE have been forced to submit
to a sweeping injunction and to
contempt action under that in

neys for the chief purpose of
breaking a strike of our members

James Boyd as director of the Fed
eral Bureau of Mines, the Senate
Interior Committee voted ten to

YWCA Adopts
3-Yeor PIon On
Public Affairs

San Francisco UPA)-A three
year program on public affairs was
adopted by the triennial convention
of the YMCA here this week in
cluding a section on civil rights
and democratic rights which en-
countered vigorous debate by some
southern members.
Altho every local chapter of the
national YWCA is free to adopt or
reject the program passed by this
three-day convention, usually local
chapters carry out the convention
resolutions.
The three-year program contain
ed number of new planks for the
YWCA on international relations,
civil liberties, and public health.
The platform adoption was urged
strenuously by Mrs. Alfred f.
Nudge, of Brooklyn, NY, chair
man of the public affairs commit
tee, who asserted that the time had
finally come for the YWCA to take
a positive stand on these things
Another committee of the con-
urged that the YWCA ex-
pand its present program to aid
migrant workers, and replace in
part the work done by the old
Farm Security Administration. The
chairman said many re-
ports had been coming in about
squatter camps beginning to APP
pear on the outskirts of larger
farm communities.
On the final day of its meeting,
the group disclosed that one of its
major projects now was taking sex
education into farm homes, where

Three States Move
To Improve Their
Civil Rights Law

Washington LPA)-Three
states and the District of Columbia
moved towards civil rights legis-
lation last week despite the defeat
of the Administrations filibuster
curb plan in the Senate.
In New Jersey the Legislature
passed and sent to the governor
for signature bill which extends
the anti-discrimination laws in en-
ployment adopted two years ago
to include education, recreation and
places of public accommodation, in
cluding hotels, restaurants, tay-
erns, theaters, swimming pools,
both houses, boardwalks, gymnas-
iums, and bowling alleys.
In Albany, the New York State
Senate unanimously adopted a bill
that may eventually abolish segre-
cation i'm the states National
Guard and other military units.
The bill forces the governor to set
up regulations for military units
following those of the Federal gov
ernment. President Truman has al
ready urged a policy of non-segre-
cation that has been adopted on
limited basis by the Navy and the
Air Force.
In Lansing, Mich, Gov. G. Men
men Williams submitted to the leg
islature his proposed FEPC law,
which would follow the law now in
effect in New York state prohibit
ing discrimination in employment.
The bill, as in New York, makes
labor unions liable to prosecution
for refusing to admit any person
because of race, color, or national
origin.
In Washington, Rep. Arthur G.
Klein Cd, N.Y. introduced a bill
to wipe out any segrega-
ton based on "race, color, creed,
NATIONAL derivation or ancestry"
existing in the District of Colum-
bia. 1t would declare that public
policy is against such discrimina-
ton.

none Of their legal language was

clear they won't enter into final

of inequalities in wages

are now on six-day week.
