LEWIS PRESSING

C.1. 0. ADVANGE INT INDUSTRIES

Almost Every Labor Front To Feel Effect of New Offensive.

By LUDWELL DENNY Times Special Writer :

WASHINGTON, Aug. 18.—A rapid offerisive on a dozen fronts is John L. Lewis’ militant answer to the threats of the A. F. of L. council’s Atlantic City meeting, to the Congressional criticism of his Garner attack, and to President Roosevelt's latest labor peace plea. The new offensive covers virtually every major ind#istry except coal, where the C. I. O. has already won union-shop contracts. The challenged industries include steel, textiles, clothing, automotive, construction, maritime and meat packing. PACKING—The C. I. O. Packing House Workers Organizing Committee told Labor Secretary Frances Perkins yesterday it would strike 25 Armour plants with 50,000 employees before Labor Day, unless the Government forced the company to negotiate a union contract. At the C. I. O’s demand, Miss Perkins asked Armour officials to meet her here today and the company agreed. The C. I. O. warned her that the strike probably would spread to Swift, Wilson and Cudahy. The National Labor Relations Board ruled yesterday that Armour’s Omaha plant had violated the Wagner Act, directed it to disestablish a “company-dominated” union, and ordered a representation election. STEEL—The C. I. O. Steel Workers Organizing Committee hailed the Labor Board’s decision Wednesday against Bethleh Steel as a vindication of the 1937 strike, and announced it would demand a Bethlehem contract. At the same time Bethlehem petitioned the U. S. Court of Appeals to set aside the Board order requiring it to disestablish its employee-representation plan, and finding it guilty of violating the Wagner Act in the unsuccessful 1937 strike, In another “Little Steel” case, the C. I. O. has just joined with the Labor Board in asking the U. S. Circuit Court to enforce the Board's order to Republic Steel to reinstate with back pay about 50,000 of the 1937 strikers.

The C. I. O. claims success in organizing the Bethlehem shipyards at Fore River and Sparrow’s Point.

This, added to its new Labor Board certification at three New York yards, is the basis for the forecasted demand for a national contract covering all of Bethlehem’s 20,000 shipbuilding workers.

MARITIME—Eight C. I. O. unions at the current Washington conference plan joint action for better Pacific and Atlantic contracts next month, and for uniting all C. I. O. land A. F. of L. sea unions in a National Industrial Maritime Federation.

. CONSTRUCTION—Faced with a national A. F. of L.-employer agreement outlawing A. F. of L. jurisdictional strikes, and with a tightening of A. F. of L.-employer lines against the newly formed C. I. O. United Construction Workers’ Organizing Committee, the latter announces that it is issuing charters and placing more organizers in the field. AUTOMOTIVE — The C. 1. O. United Auto Workers campaigned against the A. F. of L. rival for the coming Packard, Chrysler, Briggs

1940 CIVIL CITY BUDGET WAITED

When ‘Mayor Announces It Monday.

Formal announcement of the 1940 Civil City budget, expected to carry a tax rate of $1.29, will be made Monday by Mayor Reginald H. Sullivan, it was announced at City Hall today.

The Mayor then will send the budget to City Council asking approval of all departmental estimates. The anticipated $1.29 rate is one cent lower than this year’s levy of $1.30.

Meanwhile County Council members were reported to have reached an agreement in a plan to cut the

budget which calls for a 12-cent property tax rate for next year. The members also are expected to agree to make “substantial” cuts in the county general fund budget, which calls for a 4.5-cent increase over the current 48-cent levy.

George Sadlier, Council president, has announced that the Council would begin Monday at 9 a. m. and go “right down the list” of county departments, call department heads to appear as their requests are called.

“We will hold eight-hour sessions every day until we are through with the budget,” Mr. Sadlier said.

TROOPS SPREAD OUT IN U. $. WAR GAMES

PLATTSBURG, N. Y. Aug. 18 (Uu. P) .~Long lines of infantry, accompanied by artillery and tank units, moved along dusty roads and through fields today in the largest maneuvers thus far of the first U. S. field army war games. Brigades moved against brigades, on six battlefields as officers and men tested their knowledge of field combat work gained in two days of regimental tactics. 2 Cavalry scouted the advance as the brigades approached each other. Tanks and motorized artillery equipment deserted roads to cross fields and crash through underbrush to desirable positions in the hills west of Lake Champlain. One fatality was added to the three reported during the maneuvers. Private William Kirschner of Philadelphia, a bandsman, dropped dead in the 44th division camp after a heart, attack. Previously one guardsmen convoying troops and two Army fliers were killed en route to the maneuvers.
