By the Assoeioted Press

PITTSBURGH, Sept. 6.-Philip
Murray, CIO president. said yes
terday wage increases to replenish
buying power are the easiest way
to Danish unemployment and in
security.
Mr.. Murray. in a Labor Day
broadcast, declared fear and In
security are rising" and said this
country is feeling "the blight Of
recession a man-made, cor
poration-made recession"
He charged this recession has
been delivered to the American
people by the small but greedy
group OF men who direct the des-
TIMES of our vast industrial ma
chine. The recession has been de-
livered to the American people

Little Interest Shown.
The labor leader, who also heads
the United Steelworkers of Amer.
lea, said that big business has
shown little interest" in reaching
good-faith agreement with it's
workers on economic policies to
help our country.
In industry after industry,
management has arrogantly said
no to the legitimate demands Of
the union. The steel industry
has taken the lead in saying
no."
Referring to the steel indus
try's refusal of union demands
for wage increases, health and
welfare funds and pensions, Mr..
Murray added:
Il wish that every worker, every
American could have attended the
hearings of the fact finding board
held at the Federal Courthouse
in the City of New York. Never
in all my experience have I heard
such a continuous stream of abb
surdities, of ill-founded charges.
of vicious allegations and ma
licious defiance of the Govern
ment of the United States"
Named by Truman.
The three man fact finding
board was appointed by President
Truman to head off a threatened
steel strike last July Is.
Mr.. Murray declared that
the steel companies arguments
against wage increases, social well
fare funds and pensions, repre-
sented a display of arrogant
nonsense distortion of So
cial justice . a display of mis-
guided enmity to the institutions
of honest trade unionism and
democratic government"

velopments and increasing compe-
tition, the 30th annual convention

I'VE are going to feel the intense
competition that results when
there is not enough work to keep
composing rooms filled to capac-
ity," said Edward H. Christensen.
production manager of the Central
typesetting 81 Electrotyping Co.
of Chicago.
I'm addition we are faced with
new processes Of obtaining type
proofs. In Chicago. one newspaper
using the varityper, IBM type
writer's and similar machines for
body composition and pasted cello
phane letters for display. is doing
quality job Of reproduction.
"The obvious answer to this
problem is to lower unit costs. u
the speaker said. He questioned
however, whether lower wages or
worker speedups would accomplish
this, because Of psychological fac
tors. He urged instead better work
methods and elimination Of un-
necessary operations.
The 1000 printing and compos-
ing plant operators from all parts
of the Nation selected their presi-
dent. Perry Long, Los Angeles, a

Tobin Pledges Efforts
To Repeal Taft Act
Will Be RedoubIed
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

BOSTON, Sept. 6.-Secretary OF
Labor Tobin says his department
is going to "redouble the efforts
we have been making to repeal
the Taft Hartley Act"
The Labor Secretary said the
law must be replaced because it
is a reputation of the vital need
of our economic life
Speaking at Labor Day exercises
on Boston Common, the former
Massachusetts, Governor said:
"It will go because the people
Of the United States will realize
that it is a device to punish and
hamString unions, not to improve
the relations between unions and
management.
Secretary Tobin said there are
indications that the threat of a
depression is disappearing.
Industrial production rose in
August for the first gain since
November" he said. New claims
for unemployment compensation
have declined"
Factory workers are at their
tasks for longer hours than was
the case a few months ago. Loans
to business are rising for the first
time this year. sd, u,.,,. !, ..
Businessmen who, have been
liquidating their inventories are
ordering again to build up their
depleted stocks.
while the drop in employment,
largely industrial, has amounted to
2 1000, 900 over the last II months,
there are encouraging elements
in the economic picture which
show the progress we have made
since 1888 in controlling the
economy"

combination in Congress" He
called them "the twin evils which
beset our times
Mr.. Green, in his Labor Day
address, expressed hope for an
early unification of labor organi-
cations in the United States. May
God speed the day!" He said.
. He identified the Congress COM
2 bination as "reactionary Republi-

. He also spoke of 1.-The Tafts and the
Byrds"-a reference to Senators
: Taft, Republican, of Ohio and
Harry F. Bryd, Democrat, Of Vir-

to the American people" in their
opposition to President Truman's

Mr.. Green, speaking before a
"fiestabahia" FESTIVAL of the bay)

Park, called on labor to work
. against Communists and the Con-
gress combination.

He said Tories profess to hate
communism, but consciously or

Their basic crime" he added.
sis that they seek to suppress and
prohibit the natural instincts and
desires of all free Americans to
improve their conditions in life
and to provide security for their
children"
Mr.. Green said the American
Federation of Labor had contrib
uted much to winning the cold
war with Russia. He declared:
without the support of labor,
the European Recovery Program
could never have succeeded"
He praised the CIO for 'the
new determination to purge itself
Of Communist leadership"

I venture to predict will promote
the eventual unification Of all Or

an accountants vacancy opened
up in the department.
Also. these priority rehiring
rights are extended on a Gov
basis, and agencies
cannot hire outsiders as long az
there are displaced careerists who
can fill these jobs on the Civil
Service Commission's displaced
careerist registers. The agencies
however, have the right to f1ll
these vacancies from within by
promotions.
Commission officials promise
that they will crack down hard or

ing regulations. There have beer
numerous complaints that Fedora
agencies were making little eftor
to rehire displaced careerists.
CAPITAL ROUNDUP - The
Civil Service Assembly. which
holds its annual personnel admin
istration conference next month
in San Francisco. has selected
Miami, Fla, as the site of it's 1856
meeting. Strong opposition
has developed in the Senate tc
the proposed several thousand
dollars salary increase for all leg
islative administrative assistants
Capitol Hill secretaries and pro-
fessional aides. Therefore, Sena-
tor Flanders, Republican, of Ver-
mont will propose a more modest
S per cent increase for these top
aides, as we'll as for rank-and-flle
legislative employees. :. The Sen
ate has approved legislation that
would open the way for salary
increases to approximately $4,000
medical employees in the defense
agencies. A recently approved
House measure only granted the
pay boosts to Veterans Admins
tration medical employees. but the
Senate voted to permit civilian
medical workers in the defense
agencies to receive the same pay
scale as VA medical employees.
The matter will have to be settled
in conference. The Civil Serv-
ice Commission announces an
exam for ammunition inspectors
in the Army Department, at
starting salaries of $3,351 to
$4,479 a year. Other commits
sion job announcements include
exams for educational visual

The Civil Service Commission
has issued new regulations for
skilled and semiskilled employees
in the Government duplicating
plants where lithograph processes
are used. These employees recent
ly were removed from the Classi-
f1cation Act and placed under
wage boards. The commission's S
new regulations in regard to them
valves the six-month period for
initial promotions and removes
all the jobs which require trade
or craft knowledge and manual
