‘LABOR

Cold Threatens, Hell Hear Protest Next WeeK*on

|X Little Steel Formula.

dal

WASHINGTON, March 20 (U. P.). =—President Roosevelt today postponed until early next week a scheduled meeting with members

of the labor victory board, comof AA F.of L, C. I O. and

k railroad brotherhoods representa-

tives, who had planned to protest continued application of the war labor board’s “little steel” wage ceiling formula. White House Secretary Stephen T. Early said Mr. Roosevelt had been advised by Rear Admiral Ross McIntyre, the president’s personal physician, to cancel all engagements for the week-end because of devel- - oping symptoms of an incipient head cold. Early said the meeting with the labor representatives had been postponed to fas early next week as possible.” i Early said the president had no fever and that the cancellation of engagements was just a precautionary measure. 3 Labor circles had hoped the president would give his views on the

the WLB may vote Monday on recent proposals of its A. FP. of L. members to scrap the formula and set up a new wage policy.

yY Tied to Miners’ Plea

Closely tied to this vital issue is the wage case involving 450,000 bituminous miners led by John L. Lewis. The little steel formula does, not permit a further increase for the miners, much less the $2 ‘a day boost which they demand. A.The A. F. of L. petition is believed to have been laid before the WLB now so that Lewis’ United Mine Workers cannot claim credit for breaking the formula—if and when it is broken. If the WLB acceded. to A. F. of L. proposals, which seems unlikely, the board probably could compromise with Lewis by granting some pay raise and still save face. But the administration is reluctant to pierce its economic stabilization program, of which wage control is an essential part.

Dubinsky Gets Sympathy

WLB sources say the board is less united now than ever before

and that labor’s pressing demands] :

for a more flexible wage policy must be met or else price stabilization must be more ruthlessly administered. The president is expected in some quarters to follow the advice of James F, Byrnes, the director of economic stabilization. Byrnes feels . strongly that the stabilization pro-

. xgram must be preserved.

© President David Dubinsky of the International Ladies’. Workers’ union said after comferving with Mr. Roosevelt yesterday that the formula has “out-lived its usefulness.” Asked how Mr. Roosevelt responded to his appeal, Dubinsky replied: “I got a smile—I got sympathy.”
