Management, Labor
Urged by Council 10
Avert Wage Deadlock
BY the AsSocioted Press

Fears of deadlock in fourth
round wage bargaining-and the
possibility of major strikes-led
the Presidents Council of Eco
nomic Advisers today to suggest
forbearance by management and
labor.
The councils midyear report.
sent to Congress with Mr.. Tru-
mans economic message. was
written as CIO and big Steel
negotiators reached a deadlock
which may lead to strike on
Saturday.
Should industry wide, strikes
result, they would not merely re-
duce the spending ability of the
directly affected workers, but
would also spread loss of produc-
ton and income to other areas
and thus darken the business out
look" the council reported.
Pressures Increasing.
The uncertain state of the econ
omy is building up strong pres
sures in industrial relations, the
council found. 1t said:
While a still very high cost
of living encourages determined
attitude on the part of labor, the
uncertain business situation en-
courages an equally determined
attitude on the part Of manage
ment.
"At the present time both en-
ployers and workers should strive
to work out adjustments which
will help stimulate activity. bear
ing in mind the need both for
holding business costs down and
for maintaining consumer pur-
chasing power at high levels"
The council held that present
wage rates should at least be
maintained" 1t noted that in.
creases so far granted in manu-.
featuring ranged mainly between
and 10 cents an hour.
Pattern Hasn't Emerged.
| But because of the slowness ol
major industry negotiationS-in.
Guiding coal. rubber, steel, autos
and electrical machinery-the rea
postwar fourth-round pattern viii
not emerge until later this year
the report said. In some important
cases In textiles and apparels
wage increases either were moi
sought or were denied, the council
reported. but labor relations thu.
far have been relatively undis.
turbed by major work stoppages.
The number of work stoppages
was about 10 per cent greater
than in the corresponding period
of 1913: idleness resulting from
this years stoppages, however. is
estimated to be approximately
one-third less.
/ This development Is at least
in part a reflection of the post
ponement of negotiations in the
major mass production industries
to midyear, with the result tina
the second half OF the year may
witness a more crucial testing o1
labor relations than the first"
Price Cuts Urged.
The council urged industry
wherever possible, to make price
reductions which would stimulate
sales and thus bolster employment,
and production.
| Counseling against wage slashes
the report said:
THE attempt to secure lower
prices through wage cutting
would clearly be damaging at q
time like the present. when con.
sumption demand is proving in
adequate and business slack is de-
veloping.''

Taft Sees Nothing New.
Senator Taft, Republican. OF
Ohio commented: There is moth
ing new in the program, except
that he has dropped his demand
for new income taxes, which al
ways was wrong.
Speaker Rayburn said repeal
of the transportation tax on goods
will be popular However. he
would not attempt to say what
prospects there are fro raising
estate and gift taxes.
He foresaw passage of the mini
mum wage increase. a farm bill
and extension of the reciprocal
trades agreement program.
He forecast House passage OF
social security expansion but said
the proposal to increase unemploy-
ment benefits raises complications.
Mr.. Rayburn gave his views
following a presidential conference
with Democratic leaders from
Capital Hill.
Vice President, Barkley. Senate
Majority Leader Lucas and House
Majority Leader Mccormack sat
in. The hour long meeting was
devoted largely to discussion to the
economic message.
Farm Bill to be Pushed.
Mr.. Rayburn said he told the
President the House leaders will
try for passage of a farm bill this
week.
Senator Murray. Democrat. of
Montana. and Representative Pat
man. Democrat, of Texas, said in
a joint statement that an eco
nomic expansion bill which they
will introduce in few days will
be designed to carry out the Pres
ident's program.
I'VE agree with the President
that it would be folly to meet the
situation with a policy of let ma
ture take it's course" they said.
Other representative comment:
Senator Hickenlooper. Republi-
can. of Iowa: II hope that means
a movement toward balancing the
budget and encouraging enter
prise" He added that it Is very
important" that the President is
coming around to the view that
a lot of us have had since the
80th Congress. that there shouldn' t
be any new taxes"
Senator Mcmahon. Democrat,
of Connecticut Il agree with
most of the Presidents recon-
mendations. -"
Martin Bars Comments.
House Republican Leader Mar

said he was glad to notice the
Presidents "belated conversion"
Ever since the war" Mr.. Hal
leck said, "Mr. Truman has been
behind schedule on the economic
facts of life"
House Republican Whip Arends
of Illinois said it is apparent that
"Mr. Truman and his advisers are
seeing the error of their ways"
Its certainly time that better
judgment and long range evalu-
alton of the American economy
was exercised" he added.
Representative Wolcott of Mich
igan. top Republican on the House
Banking Committee, viewed the
Presidents message as "in gen.
eral. a realistic approach to the
problems of today"
Senator Aiken. Republican, of
Vermont: "There is nothing very
exciting about his program nor
very Objectionable either-except
I bet he is not going to get the
reciprocal trade act renewed in
it's original FORM"
