Steel Industry Is Next for C. I. O,,

Flynn Says By JOHN T. FLYNN

AN DIEGO, Feh. 22.-~With the automobile strike out of the way, the next subject on the agenda for the C. 1. O. is steel And this is one explanation of the great activity in the steel industry, It is of course not the only ex-

planation because orders have been pouring into the steel makers for current needs But these are augmented by advance orders stimulated partly by the expectation of price increases and partly in order to beat the gun on the GC. 1. 'O. steel union, The question is, how well is the John L. Lewis union organized amoaR the steel plants? Of course the leaders have kept their counsel on that point. But vou can accept this as settled: That the steel union is immeasurably better organized in steel than the automobile workers were in General Mo-

tors. oN time to time estimates of the number of steel workers in unions have heen printed. These estimates are very large, but they are misleading, even if correct. Recause the energies of the steel organizers have been directed against the important key positions in the steel industry. I have been around the steel industry. I do not think there is any doubt that the C. I. O. steel unions have it in their power to shut down the steel industry whenever they think best. After all, the steel industry represents a continuous flow of operations beginning with the iron mines and the soft coal mines and moving to the blast furnaces, the Bessemer and open-hearth furnaces where steel is made, the bloom mills where the first huge slabs of steel are fabricated and thence on through the various proccesses of making beams, rails, ete. Shut down the first stage in this series of operations and the whole steel industry will be tied up. The work of organization in the steel mills has gone on more Vvigorously than in the other industries. The nation has been divided into districts and in each district the work has been directed from well organized central offices.

Mr. Flynn

HE organizers have taken each district town by town and mill by mill. While the work of enlisting members has been continuous, this has heen supplemented by intensive drives. ving squadrons of organizers take a mill at a time. The mill is approached by large groups of men distributing literature, haranguing the workers as they enter or leave the plants and giving out application blanks. These campaigns dramatize the drive and have been enormously effective in bringing in members to the C. I. O. unions. I doubt if the mill managers have any idea of how far this work has been successful or how extensively their plants have been organized or how far their own company union officials have been working with the C. 1. O. Mr. Lewis is very nearly ready for the battle with steel. But this time the fight will be begun differently and not precipitated by a single group. The demands will be for increase in pay, despite the 10 per cent raise granted by the steel companies recently, for recognition of the union, for shorter hours and for seniority rights carefully administered. This last is considered of great importance. (Copyright, 1937, NEA Service. Inc.)

DEPRECIATION ALLOWANCES

HE amount to be recoversc by depreciation 8 the cost of the property, if acquired by purchase after Feb. 28, 1913. If acquired by purchase prior to that date, the basis is the cost of the property, less depreciation sustained prior to March 1, 1913, or the value on March 1, 1913, whichever is greater. The proper allowance for depreciation is that amount which should be set aside for the taxable vear in accordance with a reasonably consistent plan (not necessarily a uniform rate), whereby the aggre gate amount so set aside, plus the salvage value, will at the end of the useful life of the property equal the cost or other basis of the property. The depreciation rate of a building is not based upon the number of years it will stand before being condemned and razed, but on the number of years it will remain habitable or servicable for the purpose for which constructed,

“ n

F the taxpayer builds a new building, the period over which depreciation may be claimed begins at the time the building is completed and capable of being used. Buildings under construction are not subject to a deprecia~ tien allowance. If it is clearly shown that, because of economic or other conditions, property must be abandoned at a date prior to the end of its normal useful life, so that depreciation deductions aione are insufficient to return the cost or other basis, a reasonable deduction for obsolescence may be allowed in addition to depreciation. No deduction for obsolescence is permitted because, in the opinion of the taxpayer, the property may become obsolete at some future date.
