of three presidents OF major rail-
railroad strikes.
Sen. Forrest Donnell Or, MOI
chose as the strategic time to
hear the three railroad presi-
dents only 48 hours before the
strike deadline on several major
railroads. His bill would amend
the Railway Labor Act to make
all rail disputes subject to COM
pulsory arbitration, o u I'll awing
all strikes.
"It was a shocking perform
ance to see the apostles of free
enterprise embrace tn e tech
niques of fascism and commu-
nism," the Railway Labor Ex-
ecutives declared. "This is the
first time any large segment of
industry has embraced compul-
sorry arbitration and completely
renounced voluntary methods to
insure industrial peace"
Pointing out tn t the bill
would outlaw even minor
strikes. the statement said that
il these are so important to the
national welfare then the in
dustry is too important to the
nations welfare to be permitted
in the hands of private owners
and subject to the manipula-
ton of coupon clippers in Wall
Street. Thus the Donnell-rail-
road proposal contains the in
escapable compulsion of gov
ernment ownership and opera
ton"
Chairman Ebert Thomas Cd,
Utah) of the Senate Labor COM
mittee said he hoped that the
"one-sided hearing at the time
a strike is pending won't be
construed as Senate pressure on
the two sides TO settle. This, he
said, isn't so.
President George Harrison of
the Brotherhood of r way
Clerks-AFL told LPA that "the
railroads have hoisted the white
flag of surrender, deserted free
dom, and called upon the gov
ernment to lynch the workers,
ers. What becomes of our prin-
ciples of freedom and private
enterprise?"
The Donnell measure not only
imposes compulsory arpltratlon
but provides for court injunc-
tions and carries many other
coercive features, including fines
of up to $4,000 and Jail terms
of up to six months for viola
tions.
Vice-president Carter Fort of
{ h e Association of American
Railroads appeared to support
the Donnell bill, insisting that
"the railroad situation is a spe-
cial treatment" He then intro
duced to the committee the
presidents of the Pennsylvania
Railroad, the NY Central, and
the Atchison, Topeka and Santa

FILA 10 Observe
18th Anniversary
OF Aiding Building

The Federal Housing Admins
tration which has helped private
builders and individuals to con-
struct millions of houses, will OBJ
serve the 18th year of its estab-
lishment next Tuesday.
In connection with the an
nouncement. FHA Commissioner
Franklin D. Richards issued the
following statement:
The FILA will observe its 18th
birthday with the record of hav-
ing enabled over IL million peo-
pie to improve their housing con-
ditions.
THE 10th anniversary of the
administration comes at a time
when all volume records for home
building are being broken. This
high level of new home construc-
ton is sharp contrast to the de-
preston days of 1884 when the
Federal Housing Administration
was established by passage of the
National Housing Act.
Despite the striking differences
in national conditions in 1884 and
1850. the three chief aims of the
National Housing Act are as time
ly today as 16 years ago:
"Q To encourage improve
ment in housing conditions;
"(2) To provide an adequate
home financing system to make
suitable housing accommodations
available for American families;
"(O To have the insured mort
gage system exercise a stabilizing
influence in the mortgage and real
estate markets.
Through the years, these OBJ
jectives have developed into tangi-
BILE accomplishments. FHA, in 16
years. has insured over 20 billion
dollars in 101a million property
improvement loans, and mortgage
loans involving about 3 million
units.
IAN money advanced has been
private capital from about $4,000
private lending institutions Of the
country. The FHA has paid its
operating costs out of income
from examination fees and insur-
ance premiums.
I'm addition to supporting every
phase of its operations, FHA has
authorized and paid dividends of
approximately % million dollars
to borrowers who have paid off
their mortgages. In addition, the
Administration has built up re-
serves and capital in the amount
Of 230 million dollars.

figure that will occur next week.
Pork items increasing from 2 to
8 cents pound included chops,
loin roasts and fresh picnics.
An Agriculture Department ex-
pert said the main factor in the

hog butchering is nearing the low

ketings should pick up seasonally
this fall and help bring retail
prices back down.
