HATCH EXPECTS

“LAW EXTENSION

TO STATE ROLLS

Recognizes : Deficiency ir Act; 2 Per Cent Club’ Now Exempt.

By Scripps-Howard Newspaper - Alliance

WASHINGTON, Oct. 10.—Senator Hatch (D. N. M.), author of the political purification law bearing his name, today forecast an effort early in the next session of Congress to tighten that statute’s application to state employees - partly. paid from Federal funds. Under rulings by the Department of Justice, the Hatch Act’s prohibition of political activity has been held not to apply to 1800 employees of ‘the Pennsylvania State Employment Service, nor to thousands of workers in the Indiana State Highway department.

Language Difficult

The ‘latter are members of the famous “Two Per Cent Club,” paying a percentage of their salaries as “job insurance” to the governing ccmmittees of the political party in power. Senator Hatch said today he saw no reason to question the Justice Department’s rulings. He recognized the deficiency of the law in this particular; he said, and attributed the failure to include State-Federal employees to lack of success in working out satisfactory language in the original bill. The New Mexico Senator said the Department of Justice is’ co-oper-ating in finding the correct formula for extension of the law, and that he is pleased with the help from that source. Points to Neely Bill

He added that the vehicle for extension may be a bill introduced in the last session by Senator Neely (D. W. Va.) and reported ‘favorably by the Senate Civil Service Committee a féw hours after * President Roosevelt signed the Hatch Law. The Neely Bill proposes a wide extension of the ban on political activity to employees of all state agencies that use Federal funds. In some respects, it is regarded as more sweeping than the Hatch Act.

Blanket New Deal 0. K

Rejected by A. F. of L.

CINCINNATI, O., Oct. 10 (U.P.).—The A. F. of L. Yoda rejected a “blanket indorsement” of President’ Roosevelt and the New Deal. Delegates to the A. F. of L.’s 58th convention accepted a resolutions committee report which recommended non-concurrence in a Connecticut State Federation resolution which called for support of the New Deal because, it said, no other Administration had beet 0, friendly. to labor.

The committee said, however, it was “fully conscious of the many legislative and executive acts which have proven most beneficial to labor, some of them, such as social security, providing a necessary protection to labor which should lave been enacted many years ago.” But the A. F. of L. also had op-| posed enactment of the first reorganization bill, legislation to destroy the prevailing wage and had insisted upon amendment of the Wagner Labor Relations Act, ‘the committee said. .Daniel J. Tobin of Indianapolis, president of the Teamsters’ Union, told the A. F. of L. today that it must be prepared to be “elastic™ in possible future, unity negotiations with the C. 1. O. “We must strain: every effort humanly possible to heal this breach or labor will suffer and, instead of going forward, will go backward,” he said. The convention “agreed last night to hold the A. F. of L. peace committee in readiness to resume negotiations which were adjourned indefinitely last April, but advised President Roosevelt that future appeals by him for the C. I. O. and A. PF. of L. to meet again “would be more fittingly directed to the C. 1. O.” «I don’t favor surrendering' any rights of. the internationals represented here,” Mr\-Tobin said, “but neither do I favor continuing this breach because of any splitting of hairs. We cannot take a rigid position that is entirely immovable.” He was one of three A. F. of L. executive council members who took part in the peace BeguUiations last

spring.

Lewis Suggests His. Group May Join A. F.-of L. in Fight on Board.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Oct. 10 (U. P.).—<The C. I.:O. opened ‘its annual convention today to hear John L. Lewis, its president, suggest that the C. I. O. might join the A. F. of L. in attacking tHe National Labor Relations Board. Mr. Lewis’ annual report of 20,000 words assailed recent decisions in which ghe Board ruled against industrial unions in favor of the A. F. of L. craft unions. These decisions,

he contended, indicated the Board was leaning over backward because of A. F. of L. criticism. The report seemed to preclude— as had proceedings of the A. F. of L. convention current in Cincinnati— the possibility of peace between tne labor organizations in the near future. He charged the A. PF. of L. leadership with ignoring the unemployed and with trying to deprive the Labor Board and the wage-hour administration of their ability to aid the underpriviledged. A good half of his report was devoted to. unemployment and parts of it seemed an implied criticism of the New Deal. He saw the domestic situation transcending the’ problem of neutrality and he renewed his criticism of Vice President John N. Garner, who: he recently described as a ‘“labor-baiting, poker-playing, whisky-drinking, evil old man.” Today he blamed him for “reactionary” legislation against organized labor.

Strife Continues Be-. : | tween Unions.

4 ri ] By LUDWELL DENNY © Times Special . bi SL WASHINGTON, Oct. - 1 —Hanging. over organized ov ny as the A. PF. of L. meets in’ Cincinnati. and

cisco, is the dread shadow of Government regulation of unions. ot The warning comes from courts,

Government: executive agencies, And ‘labor: lacks

the: one weapon to

combat. it—unity. With unions fighting - each other, Government is stepping in. i Here are some of ithe latest signs: 1A Federal District Court here has just en- =5 0 : joined the -Inter=- Ludwell Denny national Team- 4 sters union from taking over driv-. ers claimed by the Brewery Workers Union. The court overruled the A. F.of L. The court said: “Whatever ing be the factual situation at any time

ity comes in contact with the jurisprudence of a democracy it then and there, instantly, ceases ... Both history and reasons are conclusive that there is no gush thing as a benevolent despot.” the eve of the decision the A. F. on L. suspended the, Brgwery union for going to court.

Charges Racket’

2. A Federal judge in New York City recently enjoined the Teamsters union from imposing certain levies, which the prosecutor -described as a. “racket ‘costing .interstate trucking concerns upward of $1,000,000 .a- year.” 3. A New York Supreme Court referee declared that a national membership referendum of the Carpenters union had- been. wrongly tabulated, and recommended granting a local union -an - injunction against the international. : 4. A Detroit court is -determining who owns title to the United Automobile Workers, the A. F.-of L. or C. 1. O. claimants.

5. Congress is considering ‘amendments to the Wagner law for government control and regulation of unions.

6. In the Senate there is a Tydings measure to restrict: the use of union funds, specifically for political purposes. Changes Regulations 7. The National Labor Relations Board, under Congressional and pub-

lic pressure, has changed: its regulations to permit employer.petitions for government adjudication when rival ony claim representation. 8. .-S. Department of Justice in . y of cities is pressing fo: building racket indictments involying alleged - combines of union officials, contractors, supply dealers, manufacturers and others. At the A. F of L. Cincinnati convention this Government action is being attacked as anti-labor. | 9. In many states the trend toward governmental interference

particularly in such: states as Oregon, Michigan and Minnesota. In California 40 counties have - antipicketing ordinances ‘ahd ‘two re-

- 10. A Gallup poll, taken last spring before this movement was well under way, reported “75:per cent in-fa-vor of requiring unions to ‘operate; under a Federal license. :

A. F. of L. and C. I. 'O. chieftains most at the moment is, that President Roosevelt—unless they can agree among themselves to reunite the two factions—will: suggest outside arbitration. That would put them on the: spot with their own rank-and-file’ and the public, and

might end in"the leaders. tosifg. their ._jobs-and power.
