Moves To End
Discrimination
In Armed Forces

Washington (LPA)-By May /
Defense Secretary Louis Johnson
will have on his desk reports on
what the Army, Navy and Air
Force have done during the past
nine months to put into effect Pre-
sident Truman's order cutting down
on racial discrimination in the
armed forces.
The new head of the Defense
Dept spelled out in greater detail
than before how the armed forces
should act to eliminate discrimina-
tion-an issue on which organized
labor has lined up solidly with lib
eral veterans groups and civic or
ganizations in favor of a no-dis-
elimination policy.
The Johnson order specifically
explains that "some units may con-
tinue to be manned with Negro
personnel" but provides that "all
Negroes will not necessarily be as
signed to Negro units. Qualified
Negro personnel shall be assigned
to fill any type of position vac

WI aIIace's Pals
Reliable Conlred
Party Followers

2 New York (LPA)-The visiting
Europeans who'll be accompany
ing Henry Wallace, erstwhile Pro-
gressive party presidential candi-
date, on his tour of the country
which begins this week are consid-
cred faithful fellow-travellers OF
the Communist party by the trade
unions and democratic political or
CARNATIONS of their countries.
Wallace invited three Europeans
to hit the circuit with him. They
are: H. Leslie Hutchinson, British
member of parliament whom the
Labor party has refused to renom-
mate because of his fellow travel
ling proclivities, Pietro Nenni,
leader of the pro-Communist Ital-
ian Socialist party, and Pierre Cot,
member of the French Chamber of
Deputies.
Only one of these three is now
definitely scheduled to make the
swing with Wallace Hutchinson.
Cot, whom French voters retired
from his municipal council office
last month because of his pro-Com-
munist position, has not yet re-
ceived visa from the State Dept
to enter the US.
Nenni is busy at the Russian
dominated World Peace Conference
in Paris, and has sent one of his
followers, Sen. Michele Giua, to re-
place him.
Little is known about Giua, a
professor by trade. Mem
ni's fellow-travelling resulted two
years ago in the division of the
Italian Socialist Party into two
of which under Nenni's
leadership has formed an outright
alliance with the Communists while
the other staunchly supports dem
ocratic principles.
The topic about which Wallace
and his guests will seek to inform
America is: Glow can we bridge
the dangerously widening gap be-
tween east and west ?"

Stabilize Wage
Rates On Road
Building Jobs

Boston (LPA)-The Int'l Hod
Carriers & Common Laborers
Union-AFL has agreed to a wage
sterilization pact for workers on
heavy construction jobs, including
road building, to last until August
1850, it was announced last week.
This agreement protects the
$1.55 an hour pay scale for labor
ers in the Boston area, as well as
rates ranging up from $115 an
hour, in other parts of the state.
Building work is not included in
the settlement, which applies to
road and subway building, airport
construction, and similar heavy
jobs.
The union also agreed to a re-
newal of its basic contract with
the Building Trades Employers
Assn, which covers eastern Mass
achusetts. In this case, however,
a 10c pay boost, raising the base
rate to $165. an hour was obtain
ed.
Meanwhile in New York City the
Int'l Bricklayers Union-AFL last
week signed a contract with the
employers association extending
for another year it's 1913 settle
ment. The agreement provides a
$3.2e hourly wage, the seven-hour
day and 35-hour week.

UhW Schedu uIes
Pact Talks With
AElis-C aInaers

Springfield, Ill. (LPA)-With its
victory over the Farm Equipment
Workers Union by a 1874 to 722
vote last week in an NLRB election
in the Springfield plant of the
Allis- Chalmers Co., the United
Auto Workers is now ready to
launch its campaign to bring farm
implement wages up to the level
of the auto industry.
Anticipating it's triumph over
the pro-Communist union, UAW
has already scheduled early collec-
tive bargaining talks with Allis-'
Chalmers management. Plans for
establishment of an Allis-Chalmers
Council, uniting company employees
thruout the country were announc-
ed prior to the NLRB poll.
JAWS victory is "a triumph in
the farm equipment industry and a
win for a clean, democratic Ameri-
can trade union. We've got the
Communists on the rum" UAW
Vice President John Livingston de-
clared.
UAW is also the bargaining
agent for workers at the big West
Allis, Wis, plant of the Allis-
Chalmers Co., and for A-C en-
ployes in Pittsburgh, Gadsden,
Ala, and Lacrosse, Wis. Workers
at two other A-C plants are ex-
pected to affiliate with the big
auto workers union shortly.

Railway Clerks
Face Showdown On
Forty-Hour Week

Washington (LPA)-A battle by
the Brotherhood of Railway Clerks
to win a 40-hour week and wage
increases for $4,000 employees OF
the Railway Express Agency thru
out the country entered the fina
stage this week-with hearings be-
fore an Emergency (Fact-Finding)
Board, appointed by President Tru-
man under the Railway Labor Act
Since 1910, the Express workers
have been on a 44-hour week. The
Brotherhood is demanding a 40
hour week without reduction in A
hour earnings, plus a minimum
wage increase of 1412c an hour
and longer vacations with pay.
Unions representing a million
other railroad workers in the mon
operating" crafts recently settled
for a seven-cent wage raise, re-
troactive to October 1, and a 40
hour week, effective next Septem-
Der 1, without reduction in weekly
earnings. The railroad employees
unlike the Express workers, have
been on a 48-hour week.
President George M. Harrison
Vice President Robert Morgan
and other Brotherhood officers, as
we'll as economists for the union
testified before the three-mar
board. They cited special circum-
stances in the Railway Express
case which justify a 141ac an hour
wage boost, as against the seven
cent raise granted to "non-operat-
ing" employees on the railroads.
Also, the Brotherhood demanded
that the 40-hour week go into eff
feet at once for its $500 members
in the New York metropolitan
area, tho it indicated willingness
to have the shorter week applied
over the rest of the country on
September /, the same as on the
railroads.
The New York membership stag
ed slowdowns and other demonstra-
tions recently in fight for an i'm
mediate 40-hour week at "A hours

week stoppage which ended after

Stress Bargaining Need,
Propose Labor Relations
Punel For Atom Industry

Washington (LPA) - Emphasiz-
ing repeatedly that free voluntary
collective bargaining is the most
desirable and satisfactory means OF
solving a b 0 management dis
putes, special commission on
labor relations in the atomic energy
industry last week recommended
machinery for solving such dis
putes when bargaining breaks
down.
The commission, appointed by
President Truman on Sept. 3, 1913,
is headed by William H. Davis,
former chairman of the War Labor
Board. It's job was to study the
problem of labor disputes in gov
ernment-owned, privately-operated
atomic energy installations and see
whether any special legislation is
needed "to protect the national in
terest without depriving manage
ment or labor organizations of the
initiative and freedom necessary
for the progress of our atomic
energy program"
Davis and his associates made il
a point to distinguish between
those instances where vital pro-
duction is affected and those where
a strike would not directly and SER
iously threaten the national well
fare. They made the following sug-
gestions:
1-"Differences of opinion be-
tween management and labor at
vital Acc installations should be
settled without interruption of pro-
duction by free collective bargain
ing, initiated at the local level and
carried, if necessary to the highest
levels of management and labor"
2-"That on all matters of Sc
curity at all government-owned,
privately-operated atomic energy
installations the Atomic Energy
Commission has absolute and final
authority, and neither the security
rules nor their administration are
matters for collective bargaining
between management and labor"
3-"Normal and typical aspects
of wages, hours and working con-
ditions. shall be left to collec-
tive bargaining between manage
ment and labor free from govern
mental interference"
4-"Strikes and lockouts should
be avoided "by an effective griev-
ance procedure, with arbitration as

Teamsters Hail
Success OF April
Road Truck Check

Indianapolis (LPA)-This is sac
news for Congressman Sam Hobbs
of Alabama and for a lot of other
labor-h ters. The over-the-roao
truck driver checks made by the
Teamsters' Union thruout the ma
tion during April didn't turn up q
single case of violence, extortion
high-pressure or even rough lang
uage.
For Is days, union representa-
tives and committees checked over
the-road drivers at terminal points
to determine whether or not they
were members of the union, and
whether their dues were paid up.
Some newspapers ran advance
scare stories predicting strong
arm stuff Hobbs and his crowd
closely watched the checkup to see
If they could find any evidence OF
violations Of the "Hobbs Act
which forbids "extortion" on the
highways. FBI agents were report
ed to have been assigned to various
points to do surveillance.
The checkup, however, turned
out to be so peaceful and polite
that not a single complaint came
in from anywhere. In fact, Team
ster officials said they received
praise from many spots at the
"gentlemanly" way in which the
project was conducted.
"Results of the check may have
been disappointing to our enemies,
but it was a great success from our
standpoint" a spokesman for the
Teamsters said. "Many non-union-
lists signed up for membership, and
many delinquent members paid up
their dues. They did so, incidental
ly, at headquarters of our locals.
Our men were instructed to collect
no dues on the spot, because we
knew the labor-haters would try to
make a Hobbs act violation out of
that"
A complete appraisal of the
checkup will be made at meet
ing of the Transfers over-the-
road policy committee in Chicago
this week.

its final step unless the parties
mutually agreed upon some other
method Of assuring continuity OF
Operations thruout the term OF
their agreement. Details of the ef-
fective grievance procedure are
matters for collective bargaining.
5-Management and labor ''make
every endeavor to determine bar

by agreement and consent election
in preference to contested proceed
ings before the Natl Labor Rela-
tionS Board"
6-In all installations "in which
representatives have been chosen
by the workers and lawfully de-
signated, or recognized by manage
ment, management and union CO.
operate to integrate the union into
the plant organization as two
way channel of communication and
medium Of understanding be-
tween management and workers" F"
In cases where the national Sc
curity is involved the commission
recommended:
1-"That the Atomic Energy
Commission establish a Labor Re-
lations Panel of three impartial
members appointed by the Pres
ident from nominations submitted
to him by the Commission"
2-"That the panel be empower
ed to take jurisdiction of any man
agement-labor dispute which col
lective bargaining and the normal
processes of conciliation have fail
ed to resolve and which threatens
to interfere with an essential part
of the atomic energy program"
3-When the panel takes juris-
diction in a dispute, "existing
terms and conditions of employ
ment will be maintained without
change and no action will be taken
to impede production or services in
any way so long as the panel re-
tains jurisdiction and for an addi-
tional period of 80 days if in any
case the dispute remains unsettl-
ed"
4-"That the panel have full dis
cretion in the use Of all voluntary
procedures to end the dispute by
mutual agreement and as to when
and how it will terminate its juris-
diction of the dispute"
5-"That if the panel is unable
to effect a settlement Of the dis
pute by voluntary agreement, then
it may in its discretion proceed to
recommend such terms and condi-
tions of settlement as the panel
may deem appropriate"
These recommendations, the
Commission said, can be put into
effect within existing legislation.
They should be given trial per
iod Of two or three years and II
there were any work stoppages the
responsibility would fall back on
the Atomic Energy Commission.
The Acc could then ask for spec
ial legislation.
President Truman said he would
give careful consideration to the
recommendation of the report.
