Meets With Truman / Seek Compromise To Satisfy Labor Key West, Fla.. March 6.—(UP) -Defense ihobilicer Charles E. Wilson flies here today fob l a conference with’ President Truman on what can be done to bring labor back into the niobilizatloihfold. The little White House billed the meeting simply as a luncheon, to which Mr. Truman invited Wilson because the mobilization thief just happened to be in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., but this was more than a mere social get-together. j Organized labor is in full revolt against Wilson's price, wage and manpower policies. It has (railed out of the mobilization command, creating the widest break with the administration in 18 years. And the administration is worried. even though Mr. Truman has sought to minimize the crisis. The fact that the president is takipg a direct hand in the situation 80 Boon after starting his vacation was viewed as evidence of his anxiety and of his determination to find a .quick settlement. Mr. fruman and Wilson will explore the heart of the problem. They will see If they cap find a compromise, that will satisfy labor. Their task was made no easier by CIO president Philip , He appealed to the nation Ihst night to join labor in the “battle of consumers" against Wilson’s wage*prlce policies and 'the administration's failure to check living tosjs.- Murray's radio address kicked" off a concerted drive by the united labor policy committee to enlist grass' support for labors battle against mobilisation policies. Other top union leaders will follow through with radio appeals during the week. ; -1 • ' Murray told the nation :t is\ not just’ a ''llbtor problem I when consumer prices rise, when (‘lnequitable taxes" are imposed on low-in-come groups or when the future of ■ rent controls is in danger. A While he did not mention Wilsop by name, Murray reiteratet) labor's j old complaint > against the defense mobilizes charging (that “r|eprdsen- ! tatives of big business monopolize > the top levels of our defense mobilization program.” * He blamed two “conservative coalitions” for the government's “lopsided approach” to inflation--Re- ’ publicans and southern Democrats ; in congress and “big tiu«inelss-inind- . ed officials” running the defenste 1 and stabilization effort.

the government. But we are alsoeach going to pay for some more of the defense effort indirectly— through higher taxes which the government ha? asked business concerns to collect from all of us in higher prices. , jirttftre.-.- - - \ Business concerns will be permitted to charge prices that—- \ on the surface—might seem highly profitable. But business | profits, are a prime source of government income. First, “renegotiation” takes any abnormal profits for Uncle Sam. Then, if just present proposals go through, “normal” corporate taxes will take away over half what’s left. Next, the government will be able to take up to 85% of any profit the , law calls “excess”—pretty much regardless of growth or other 1 reasons for such increased earnings. Finally, what is paid tp people who invest their savings in business is taxed again as individual income—at rates up to 91%. ' .

But it’s dot really bad—lt’s good. It means that we have the knowledge and skill, the equipment and capacity, the character and strength of will to supply ourselves and others with needed war power and still keep a level of living that seems luxurious tp those beyond our shores. p It means we are capable of taking a little time out from our customary growth to eliminate a threait to our well-being—-and, coon thereby, to resume at an even faster rate our progress toward a common material and spiritual well-being. That’s why we must—each of us—strive to do our best. That’s why we can’t safely “let George do it” unless we are sure that George is you and I and every American who wants to enjoy—and wants to deserve to enjoy—the future that lies open to us. , ' ■
