Bureau Finds n Additional Areas
With Substantial Labor SurpIuSes

Washington, D. C. ILNS). -
There are some 32 areas in the ma
tion with serious unemployment
problems, though the number of
major production areas with very
substantial labor surpluses in July
had not increased since early June,
when state employment security
agencies reported 8 in this cate
CORY.
This was reported by Robert c.
Goodwin, director of the Bureau of
Employment Security, who said
that a new survey covering all
large and small labor market areas
with heavy labor surpluses had
revealed 22 additional areas, most
ly smaller communities, with very
heavy labor surpluses.
"This Means" Goodwin told Sec
retary of Labor Maurice J. Tobin,
"that to the best of the knowledge
of the bureau and the state en-
ployment security agencies there
were, some 80 labore market areas
in the nation which in July had un-
employment of II percent or more.
This includes the 9 original 'E'
areas, one of which Scranton
Wilkes-Barre, was split in two,
thus artificially making 10, and the
% new 'E' areas"
Goodwin added that according to
the state reports, the number of
unemployed in these areas in July
was about $4,000 of the 100000
unemployed in the country.
"The Department of Labor" Sec
retary Tobin said, "is using all its
facilities to provide information
regarding employment trends and
unemployment conditions through
out the nation. Reports on the new
22 areas with heavy unemployment
as well as up to the minute infor-
nation regarding conditions in the
original 'E' areas have been sent
to the White House.
No WOrsening of Conditions
''It is important that the in
crease in the number of areas with
heavy unemployment should not be
considered as an indication that
unemployment conditions have
worsened since the original list of

millions now working at low wages.
AS southern congressman had at
tempted to do in the House, a group
of southern Senators tried to Grip
pie the rs cent provision as well as
the coverage. Sen. Ellender Cd,
La led a drive to substitute a
sliding scale keyed to the cost of
living but was defeated. Sen. Full
bright Cd, Ark.) vainly tried to
hedge the 75-cent minimum with a
three-year gradual step-up for en-
ployers with less than so employees.
However, all efforts to weaken the
75-cent level itself were beaten
down.
When it came to eXempting ad-
ditional workers the southern bour-
bons scored a major victory at the
expense of liberal Administration
supporters when they forced adop-
ton Of an amendment removing
employees of most retail and SER
vice establishments more than so
percent of whose annual sales are
made in the state where they are
located. This amendment was Of
fered by Sen. Spessard Holland Cd,
Fla.), long a foe of labor.
Further amendments along this
line which We're forced through in
cluded some which exempted en-
ployes of retail establishments
making or processing the goods
they sell, employees of firms re-
failing building materials for farm
or home construction, employees of
cotton gins and employees of small
telegraph offices.
A southern attempt to get ex-
for employees of small
lumber mills was defeated, as was
an effort to remove all workers
exempted from the Fair Labor
Standards Act from the hours and
overtime provisions of the Walsh
Healey act too.
In a couple of ways, the Senate
bill actually would strengthen the
law. Besides raising the minimum
wage to rs cents, it strengthens
the child labor provisions and gives
the Wag e-Hour Administrator
to sue in court in behalf
of workers who have wages due,
them under the Fair Labor Stand
ards Act.

Strike Continues;
Union Challenges
Company Figures

Akron (LPA) - United Rubber
Workers demands against the B.
F. Goodrich Co. would cost much
less than the company claims,
Woodrow Ginsburg, research dir
ector for URW asserted this week.
About 1900 rubber workers are
on strike against Goodrich for
company-paid pensions, wage in
creases and health and welfare
program.
The unionists' demands include a
25c hourly wage increase and
monthly pensions of 500 for
workers retiring at the age of 65
and over.
The cost of the whole business,
says Ginsburg, would come to less
than $5,0O0,0OO. "The figures re-
leased by the company, he said,
"have been tremendously over-in-
flated."
In the first place, he maintains,
URW is bargaining for only IT,
COO employees and can't assume re-
sponsibility for costs of all the 25,-
900 Goodrich workers.
Secondly, the company is already
insurance and pension pay
ments which should be subtracted
from the total cost of the pro-
gram now sought by the union.
Thirdly, the company isn't allow
ing for the taxes it will save itself.
Meanwhile, union-company nego-
tiations continued in Dayton, Ohio,
but failed to show any progress.

10c Poy Hike Ends
Gcs Truck Strike

Chicago UPA) - A ten-cent
wage boost has been won by 1900
Chicago gas truck drivers after a
three-week strike.
The pay hike, retroactive to
July |, was ratified Sept. / by 1900
of the drivers, members of lntl
Brotherhood Of Teamsters-AFL.
Nine teamster locals had been on
strike against about $500 gas sta
tions in the Chicago area. As a
result many stations were dried
up and traffic was cut down con-
siderably.
Original demands were for a
17l2c wage raise, and other con
tract benefits, most of which have
been granted.

telegram from Sen. Bnen Nc
Mahon Cd, Conn.,, chairman of the
Joint Committee on A tom c
Energy.
The Legion, considering a resolu-
tion on military control of the

energy would inflict a powerful
blow upon our national security"

Record Enrolment
Seen This Year AT
Labor Institute

Urbana- Champaign, H., (ILNS).
The Institute of Labor and In
dustrial Relations at the Univer-
sity of Illinois began its fourth
year Labor Day with new direct
or and an anticipated record en-
rollment for the fall term.
Some S5 students are expected
later in September to study for
master of arts degrees in labor
and industrial relations. Of this
number, 80 are students who are
continuing work started earlier.
New head of the Institute is
Prof. w. Ellison Chalmers, who
was appointed acting director for
one year beginning Sept. l. He has
been on the institute staff for al
most years.
Started On Small Scale
The institute was set up in 1946
"to foster, establish, and correlate
resident instruction, research, and
extension work in labor relations"
When it opened it's doors in Sept
ember that year it had small
staff, one graduate course of study,
and 6 students.
In the past 3 years the teaching
program was expanded to include
20 courses and 13 staff members to
assure students in their construc-
tive development general under
standing of the aims and pro-
grams of both labor and manage
ment and the public interest. The
study program includes viewpoints
of the economist, the engineer, the
lawyer, the political scientist, the
psychologist, and the sociologlst as
well as those of the practical adj
ministrator i'm labor and Industrial
relations.
Local Programs Conducted
On the research side of the ledg-
er. the institute has completed A
projects and is continuing a long
range study of the elements OF
good labor relations by detailed in
vestigations in a number of plants
in a single community. This latter
project is designed to reveal
more fundamental understanding
than now exists Of the aims and
programs of workers, union organ
izations and management, and to
analyze through a study of actual
experience the ways in which the
relations between the groups can
be improved.
The institute extension program
includes cooperating with labor,
management and public groups in
conducting upon request classes
and short conferences in the princi-
Plies of labor and industrial rela-
tions in local communities or on the
campus. TO date l08 projects have
been attended by more than 4,7OO
persons. These include 43 for labor
with more than l,7C0 attending; 80
for management with more than
/ ,3C0 present; and 30 for joint
labor management groups, govern
ment employees and the general
public with more than l,700 pre-
sent.

Druggist Lauds Health Plan

Phoenix, Ariz. (LPA) 49, There's
at least one druggist who doesn't
see things the way the Arizona
Pharmaceutical Assn does. Robert
+. Miller, proprietor of retail
drug store in working mans
neighborhood, is all for the Pres
ident's health plan. In recent let
ter to Arizona Labor Journal he
asserted that "the health of the
people is more important than the
profits of few selfish M.D.'s and
pharmaceutical manufacturers"

Comment On
World Events

Americas government inspired
anti Communist crusade has inn
posed a severe strain on our liber-
ties by "the awkwardness of its
methods and the inaccuracy Of its
aim" charges Editor Max Ascoli,
in The Reporter magazine. There
is undoubtedly truth in what ne
says, though his charges may be
too sweeping.
The cold war has brought on un-
easiness and apprehension among
"some strategic groups in the ma
ton; policy makers, educators, the
religious and racial minorities"
Ascoli says, and adds:
"The most apparent character
istics are fear of subversion, and,
at the same time, fear of the
methods used to combat subversion.
This condition could hardly be
called a major illness, but it is
serious enough to deserve atten-
tion and treatment.
"The people and their leaders
are, of course, anti-Communlst.
Yet too many people and too many
leaders prefer to chase the shadow
Of Communism in America rather
than to work to remove its causes
abroad"
=. y. e
Deploring the inaccuracy Of the
IN i-Communist crusade's aim,
Ascoli holds that the blows cal
most invariably fall far from t,le
target, wounding or harassing the
by-standers and the public at large.
This poor craftsmanship seems to
be the common feature of the pre-
sent-day Investigations, inquiries
and hunts"
He points up the danger to
abridgement of our traditional lib
critics, saying:
"The political community has a
perfect right to impose burdens
and restrictions on those who are
organized to overthrow its order.
Society is entitled to impose a
price as high as the traffic can
bear, but the price must never be
so high that the public authority
cannot succeed in making its col
lections, which would happen if the
rebels were forced completely un-
derground.
"Our elected officials. must
have adequate power to defend
the community. They must also
know where to stop"

Labor Urged To Beck Program
For Hiring Handicapped Workers

Washington, D. C. ILNS). -
President Truman proclaimed Ma
tional Employ the Physically
Handicapped Week, opening Oct. 2
and urged all state and federal of
ficials and all labor, business and
fraternal organizations to push a
years campaign for hiring handi-
capped workers. He emphasized he
was working at the problem of aid
ing the handicapped from both ends
rehabilitation of the handicap
ped and prevention of accidents.
The Presidents Committee on
National Employ the handicapped
Week met to make final plans for
the nationwide observance and later
IN the day gathered in the White
House rose garden where Truman
spoke and awarded cash prizes to
5 high school students winners of
an essay contest on helping the
handicapped. First prize of $1,000
given by the international Asso-
citation of Machinists, went to John
r. Shankey of Pittsburgh. Three
other prizes were donated by the
Disabled American Veterans.
Asks Continued Effort
Truman called upon the more
than 800 members of his commit
tee to devote another year to the
cause of the handicapped and told
them:
81 am particularly interested in
this program and am anxious to
see it a continuing success. / am
working at it from both ends. |
am doing everything | possibly
can to restore the physically handi-
capped to the point where they can
be self-supporting, and | am doing
everything | possibly can to pre-
vent physical handicaps from hap
pening.
al have had meetings in session
after session with Governors and
organizations, with the idea Of
preventing the unnecessary Grip
pling of people. There are millions
of people who have been injured
unnecessarily, through plain care
lessness on their own part, or on
the part of some other source.
Declares Prevention Vital
"That, | think, is just as import
ant as the rehabilitation, because
if we are successful in the first we
won't have so much to do in the
second-although there are un-
avoidable accidents which some
times happen in spite of all you
can do.
Gas a result of those accidents,
and as a result of war, we must
continue to work to the very best
of our ability to see that these
people are given better outlook
on life"
AT the meeting of the Presidents
committee, Secretary Of Labor
Maurice j. Tobin said that ability
counts" will be a new by-word in
the national employment picture.
"The Presidents committee is aim
ed at dispelling ignorance and mis-
understanding" he emphasized. 81
firmly believe that when we have
done this, the slogan ability counts
will figure as prominently in labor
as collective bargaining and min
imum wages"
More than % Governors were
represented by their state commit
tee chairmen. Speakers included A.
]. Hayes, president of the Intena-
tional Association of Machinists,
who asked for expansion of feder-
al vocational training facilities.

Stock SWindIers

Washington (LPA) - Thousands
of Americans--among them, many
trade unionists-have been flooded
with sucker literature from Can
adan oil and cold stock racketeers
and last week the Post Office
Dept took its first step toward
curbing the dehge.
Postmaster General Jesse M.
Donaldson revealed he has issued
what are known as fraud" and
Fictitious" orders against the
Canadian concerns. Under such
orders, he said, letters addressed
to those outfits are stamped
"fraud" or Fictitious" and return
ed to the senders.
The result is to stop checks or
cash sent by American suckers to
the Canadian operators. AS things
stand now, the Postoffice Dept has
no power to seize the literature in
the first instance, when it comes
across the border from Canada,
Donaldson said
He declared that the Canadian
swindlers "are distributing litera-
ture which holds out untold for
tunes to American investors in
Canadian mining and oil drilling
operations"
"In each instance to date it has
been ascertained that these con
Germs are selling stock contrary to
the provisions of the Securities and
Exchange Act" Donaldson added.
They urge that extensive training
schemes should be started to give
workers the chance to fit them
selves for the duties and respon-
sibilities of management.
