ing force that motivates the life
of Packlnghouse Union leader,

gro workers in the United States
but also the workers of other
races. Convinced that only the
organized, cooperative effort of
all the workers can lead to a real
emancipation" Russell Lasley Is
an apostle" of trade unionism.
When / interviewed him in the
Nicollet Hotel in Minneapolis on
May % before the official opening
of the United Pacltlnghouse
Workers Union Convention, he
was reluctant to discuss "race-re-
lations" as such. Not unaccustom-
ed to vicious Jim Grow practices
in his 10 years in Midwest pack
ing plants, Russell Lasley never
theless insisted that the solution
to race discrimination must be
made a part of the day to day
struggle of the American trade
union workers"
you can't solve discrimination
by appeasement," Lasley insisted!
Mr.. Lasley who Is chairman Of
the UPWA Anti-Discrimination
Committee went on TO say that the
union has no set pattern or form
ula for fighting discrimination
but attacks the problem where
ever they confront It." I'm the
UPWA we are proud Of the VIC
tories we have won on the race

Cofholic JournoI
Says Living Wage
Still Not Affoined

Union City, N. J. - Special -
American workers have yet to
attain a family living wage"
THE SIGN, national Catholic
magazine published here, charges
in a leading editorial in its May
issue.
The editorial entitled Unions
Never Satisfied" criticizes COM
parisons based on percentage in
creases over 1889 wages. Citing
Labor Department figures the edi-
torial declares:
In 1889, $23.86 was not living
wage and $5494 was not a living
wage in 1949." 1t is pointed out
that in terms of 1889 purchasing
power. the 1949 wage drops to
O32.17.
While it admits that without
increased productivity existing
profits could not of themselves
provide a living family wage for
every employee" the editorial in
sists that existing profits could
frequently be kept more modest
with the surplus being applied to
ease the substandard wages Of
many employees"
Citing a recent Federal Trade
Commission report to prove big
business seeks an average 20so
return on its invested capital after
taxes" the editorial adds: ''in-
dustrial profits seem to be doing
nicely. After all, a 20eS return
after all taxes are paid does seem
to be a comfortable profit"
