But their average standard of liv- 2 iy
Yepression
country’s industrial capacity. must be devoted fo production for war. That's the economic background of the struggle, how coming to a head in Washington, over whether organized labor shall be permitted to attempt to maintain and improve its standard of living. Hearings: Start Soon ' ‘Both branches of ‘the labor move- || ment are demanding general wage increases. * Dollar a-day wage reises, with “union security,” are the C. I. O. objective, due for its first big test when the war labor board rules onj the demands to the “little steel” companies. Board hearings are scheduled to ‘begin Tuesday. The A. F. of L. is urging its tnions to seek agreements: undér which each worker’s ‘wage would increase automatically each month "by the same proportion as the increase in the labor department’s cost-of-liv-ing index.
The Henderson Attitude
Arguments against general wage increases have been meade by Price Administrator Leon Henderson. They are believed to have been stated much more emphatically in a letter which Mr. Henderson has written to President Roosevelt, and which may be discussed when the President meets fomorrow with his labor advisory board of A. F, of L. and C. I. O. officials.
Wage increases add to costs and so have a direct upward effect on prices. This, in brief, is thought to be the reasoning back of Mr. Henderson’s opinion: that labor would benefit more by demanding still higher taxes and defense bond sales —to absorb excessive industrial profits and excess consumer buying power, thus helping him to hold down the cost of living—than by getting general increases. He has made it clear that he favors increases for workers whose wages are too low to support decent living standards. . The price control law gives Mr. Henderson no authority over wages. But Congress, in that law, directed government agencies which do have authority to work toward a fairy stabilization of wages. ©
