pendence. But Western Germans
say the Communists don't realize
what they have built. The first
chance the East zone unions get
to strike a blow for independent
thinking, they'll seize it.
In the West, the unions have the
privileges of an American trade
group. They may strike and pick
ct. They may make demands
and do. They may petition their
government leaders for relief from
this or that-and do. They may
bargain for a better deal from
their employers-and do.
The labor council in Western
Germany, speaking for the COM

said in no uncertain terms they

German leaders now say housing
will be on top of the agenda for
the new federal government when
it is formed this fall.
The Western German trade

Labor Again Speaks
With Authority in
German Daily Life
By Tom Reedy

Associated Press Foreign Correspondent.
BERLIN, Aug. 6.-For the first
time in 20 years, the voice OF la
Dor is speaking out with authority
In Germany, where unions have
become one of the most lmpor-
tant factors in daily life.
In West Germany, the unions
have grown to the point where
they exercise considerable inf1u-
ence on the government. In the
Soviet zone, union membership is
often compulsory, by edict OF the
Communists. Nevertheless. Rus
sian zone politicians take the trou-
BILE to get the union behind them
whenever they launch a new ven-
ture.
The German Office seeker is re-
quired these days to reckon on
what the union wants before he
drafts his campaign.
Faster Than Allies Thought.
This is a condition the Allies
hoped one day would be brought
about when they wrecked iHtler's
one-man scheme of things. but it
came about faster than they ex-
pected or hoped.
Some officials estimate organized
labor in all Germany now at be-
tween 100000 and 100000
out Of a population of approx
mately 65.O00,000. This would be
the highest peak ever attained.
This is a far cry from 1929 when
the economic crash hit the world,
and Germany's labor unions nearly
cracked. They were so impotent
that Hitler was able to abolish
them completely.
West German political parties,
girding for the Federal elections
August IA. now go out of the way
to appeal to the unions. The Com
munist propaganda machine in the
Russian zone is constantly drum
ming up culture programs. sport
events. and other activities for the

cent months. With unemploy-
ment mounting in West Germany
to 1,250.000. the unions neverthe-
less have been able to get wage
increases this summer for more
than a million manual and Office
workers. In the first five months
of 1949, two-fifths of all wage
and salary earners in the Amer
ican and British zone received in
creases averaging 10 per cent.
This is quite a step in Germany
where most jobs are bracketed at
certain wage scales and a man
knows from year to year-and al
most from generation to genera

House Kills Huge Pension Bill;
 Introduce Another

WASHINGTON, (P) - A still dizzy House was back on the vet erans pension merry -go-round Saturday.
 Rep. Rankin CD.-MissD stepped back to the controls Friday to in- troduce a limited pension bill for veterans of World War I.
 Only Thursday, after the House buried his multi-billion dollar pen sion bill for all World War I and II servicemen, disappointed Ran kin had said no pension legislation could pass at this session.
 But just day later he bounced back with his new proposal, intro duced, he said, "by request" He said the American Legion and many members" of the House veterans committee, of which he is chairman, had urged the new bill.
 Of its prospects, Rankin de- clared: "I'm making no predic- tions." Before his first bill got to the House, he had confidently forecast its passage by an over Whelming majority.
 Rankin told the House he hoped to have his new bill up for consid- eration "in a short time." Whereas the Mississippina' first bill provided S90 month pensions at age 65 to all 18,800,00C World War I and II veterans, the second is considerably less inclu. sive and probably less costly.
 It is limited to approximately
