for jobless people with dependents,
up to SAP a week. Even these ma
tion-wide standards would have
made average benefits $24 a week
last year, hardly big sum.
3-Stretching out the period
during which jobless benefits are
paid to 26 weeks, contrasted with
the present state-to-state variations
from IL weeks to 26 weeks. Only
half of the 100000 workers who
exhausted their benefits before
finding jobs in 1949 would have
gone through this experience if a
26-week duration had been in effect
in all states.
Taken together, these three i'm
provements would have resulted in
about $3.50, 200, 900 in benefits-and
purchasing power to buy food and
clothing and necessities for those
who were jobless last year. The
President told Congress that his
proposals are "a strong element in
our program to support growth
and expansion in the economy"
Besides the three major improve
ments, he proposed increases in the
base pay on which the tax is cal
culated, a standard 2.7 per cent
payroll tax rate to finance the pro-
gram, methods to provide benefits
for workers who move from one
state to another, Tightening up on
loopholes which might allow fraud
ulent claims for benefits, and i'm
in the financing of the
federal-state system of unemploy-
ment insurance.

Green, Hayes And
Lewis Friendly To
Murray Proposal

Washington UPA) - Organized
labor moved tentatively toward i'm
mediate cooperation on political, ,
and economic matters
and unified labor movement in the
not-tOo- distant future with the
early replies of top leadership Of
three organizations to ClO Pres
ident Philip Murray's April a pro-
posal for unity.
William Green, president of the
American Federation Of Labor; Al
Hayes, president Of the Interna-
tional Association of Machinists,
and John l.. Lewis, president Of the
United Mine Workers of America,
have all expressed approval. Muir
rays letter asked formation Of
standing joint committee to coop
crate in political economic and leg
islative matters with a view toward
the eventual merging Of all labor
into one organization.
Said Green, on April 5, in New
Orleans to address the annual con-
yention of AFL unions in Louisi-
ana: "Amalgamation with the CIO|
has been the traditional attitude of
the AFL. We have always sought
the blending of both into an
international union" Green said he
would probably confer with Murray
on his return to Washington.
Meanwhile, in Washington, AL
Hayes declared: "We in the Mach
inists Union certainly favor labor
unity. We will do everything we
possibly can to contribute to a bet
ter relationship among the various
labor organizations in this country.
We believe that the greater unity
among unions, the better the re-
suits will be for the members wei
represent"
John L. Lewis, third to reply, |
was the only one to mention the |
committee. In a commun-
ication to Murray on April 6.
Lewis said: 81 refer to your letter
of April 5. 1t will be referred for
to the International |
Executive Board of the United |
Mine Workers of America, which |
will assemble April Is. The execu-
tive officers will recommend to the
board that it authorize participa-
ton in your suggested joint COM
mittee."
Murray had proposed formation
IF standing joint committee with
authority to embark upon and pur-
sue common program" The COM
nittee's mandate, Murray said,
should be to coordinate our efforts
n the economic, legislative, land
political spheres and to seek to
achieve the organic unity of all
labor"
In addition to Green, Hayes and
lewis, Murray's letter went to w. i
:. Kennedy, president of the Rail-
'oad Trainmen; H. w. Fraser,
hairman of the Railway Labor Ex-
Associations; and Alvanley

|FTc Orders Halt
On Misleading
Gig Advertising

Washington (LPA)-The Federal
Trade Commission has ordered the
makers Of Camel and Old Cold
lcigarets to stop false and mislead-
ing advertising. The ETC also is
preparing to crack down on the
makers of Lucky Strikes, Philip
Morris, and Pail Mall.
All cigaFetts contain varying
amounts Of nicotine and throat ir-
ritants and there's no reliable basis
for advertising claims that one
brand is superior to another in
those respects, said the FTC. To-
baccos used by the manufacturers
Of all the leading brands contain
nicotine in substantially the same
quantities and variations, the ETC
declared. The same is true as re-
CARDS claims about throat irrita-
tion, as the smoke from all leading
brands contain throat irritants in
essentially the same quantities and
degree, the ETC found.
The ETC said the Food and Drug
Administration made a series of
tests of the six leading cigaret
brands. The tests showed, said the
ETC, that the nicotine content of
both the tobacco and the smoke
varied greatly, not only among the
six brands, but among individual
cigaretts of the same brand; that
tobacco buyers cannot determine
the amount of those substances in
the tobacco leaves they buy, so that
manufacturers cannot assure "con-
stancy"; further, that there is no
known practical process which can
remove nicotine, tars and resins
without making the tobacco unsat-
isfactory for use in the manufac-
ture Of cigaretts.
ETC therefore declared that the
claim that Old Colds or Camels
contain less nicotine or throat irri-
tants than other brands is decep-
tive.
Camels' other claims, that they
encourage the flow of digestive
juices, aid digestion, relieve fati-
que, create or restore energy, are
soothing to the nerves, protect
against nerve strain, never leave
an aftertaste, ETC., also are false,
said the ETC.
Contrary to the advertising rep
resentations, said the ETC, "the
record clearly shows that Camel
cigarets are physiologically injur-
Ious (D when smoked to excess,
and (2) where the smoker is dis
eased." The only effect cigaretl
has on digestion, IF it has
any at all, is HARMFUL" the ETC
declared. ,..f..4
AS to testimonials, of 43 ques-
TONED with few if any exceptions,
quotations attributed to them in
Camel advertising were deceptive
and misleading" Some of those
questioned admitted not only that |
hey did not smoke Camels exclu-
'ively, but that they did not smoke
1T all. Others whose testimonialsI
said they preferred Camels testi-
led they could not tell the differ
ence between Camels and any other
brand. Others testified they signed
reading the testimonials.
