“THURSDAY, JAN. 20 WILLKIE JOKES IN LONDON RAI
“Sets ’Em Up’ in Saloon; - Near Tears Earlier When He Tours Shelters.
] - LONDON, Jan. 30 (U, P.).— ‘Wendel L. Willkie laughed off reted air raid alarms in the Lon|don area today and strode down | @Uaint . Shepherd Market—Longon’s Greenwich Village—and had | 8 gay time in a saloon buying beers | for soldiers while German planes droned high overhead. He was unrecognized when he entered a pub and ordered a pint of beer. But soon he made himself known withthe offer: “Have one on me, boys.” A group of soldiers en route to home leave immediately gathered around the visiting American. Glasses filled with foaming suds | bought by Mr. Willkie, were raised | with cries of “best. wishes to you, “To you, lad,” Mr. Willkie re- | sponded. Mr. Willkie said that he now planned to leave London Feb. 6. Mr. Willkie spent ' almost three hours yesterday evening touring four shelters during an air raid alarm. He saw thousands of homeless . and impoverished men, women, children and babies. “It really gripped me,” Mr. Willkie | said later. “It was a terrible emotional experience. Several times I * honestly felt I could hardly keep

Turner alio said the extent of such a “flivver! armada would be amazing, explainiug that he believed, on the basis of competent authority, 100,000 such light planes could be mass-produced this year. The flier, whose school here is training pilots foi national defense, said the establishment of a “flivver”
ating a huge defensive air force and releasing military planes for offensive action and long-range defensive protection. He described his plan, which he sald he would discuss with mational defense officials, as “an ace in the hole” system “in ‘case the worst comes to the worst.” “I am not so afraid of invasion of the United States when I consider the possibilities of the use of America’s vast civilian aviation farcilities and its mass of young pri-
vate fliers,” the flier concluded.

LABOR DISPUTES CLOSE § PLANTS
16,500 Men Affected, but U. S. Production Maintains Record Pace.
By UNITED PRESS Strikes held up production at six industrial plants and defense projects today as workers attempted to enforce demands for higher wages
and union recognition. The estimated 16,500 workmen participating in the walkouts represented only a small proportion of the nation’s more than 45,000,000 employed, however, and industrial roduction maintained a record pace. Standard Statistics, Inc., reported’ that production last week was at 138.4 per cent of the 1935-39 average and steel companies, backbone of the defense industries, reported record years during 1940. Largest of the strikes were at the Milwaukee plant of the AllisChalmers Co., largest manufacturing firm in Wisconsin, and at the International Harvester Co. tractor plant at Chicago.
Attempt Settlement
Seven thousand workmen were out at the Allis-Chalmers plant which holds defense orders totaling $40,000,000. Federal conotliators were attempting to arrange a settlement of the United Automobile Workers’ (C.1.0.) union demands for a 15cent an hour increase, 75 cents an hour minimum and “union security.” A walkout at the Harvester Tractor plant, one in a chain which hold defense _.orders from . $10,000,000, affected approximately 5500 members of the Farm Equipment Workers’ Organizing Committee. The strike was called in protest against alleged refusal of company officials to discuss wage scales with the FEWOC. The FEWOC requested a meeting today with company representatives at the two Chicago plants still operating to discuss wages, hours and working conditions.
Wright Field Work Stopped
A series of all-night conferences under the direction of a Federal conciliator began at Dayton, O., where an estimated 400 to 500 workmen were made idle by a strike on three major construction projects at Wright Field, U. S. Army Air Corps experimental and testing center. The American Federation of Labor workmen contended a construction firm had employed non-union workmen. Col. Lester T. Miller, Wright Field commandant, said he had informed the War Department the strike was a jurisdictional dispute and that the alleged non-union workmen actually were members of a CIO union. At Mobile, Ala. a strike of 3,400 workers, members of a CIO shipbuilders’ union, against the Alabama Drydocks and Shipbuilding Co., still was stalemated. Conciliators were ‘attempting to get 600 strikers at the Cleveland, O., plant of the Standard Tool Co. to return to work on defense subcontracts while negotiations continue. The Parkersburg, W. Va., Mountain State Seel foundry remained strikebound after company officials announced defense contracts would be cancelled and the employment list reduced to 100 workmen.
