in Music Case

Issue Befogged

By FRED W. PERKINS Seripps-Howard Staff Writer , June 16.—Two years after the dispute started

a decision that left the main issue still befogged. The main issue, from the public standpoint, = whether. # 15 also legal for a labor union to require royalty payments direct to the union

bers, without restriction on how the music records, those for home use

as well as for radio reproduction, would be required to make direct payments to his union. Estimates are that under the Petrillo plan his union would receive’ several millions of dollars a year, with no effective public control over the use of this money.

Balk at Compromise

Lawyers for the broadcasting companies resisting Mr, Petrillo raised the question of how much the fund was intended to benefit unemployed musicians—whether it was “made in good faith for the purpose of alleviating unemployment or whether there is not be-

to have available to them millions of dollars for disbursement by them in the interest of internal political strength.”

The war labor board did not pass on this question. Instead, the public members of the board worked out with the industry members a compromise, to which the labor members refused to agree. The Petrillo royalty plan, if it becomes general, could provide many millions of dollars a year for labor unions for their own purposes jover their .present income.

CIRDLER FEARS

‘WAR CONTROLS,

Declares Some Would Like To Perpetuate Regulation Of Industry.

CLEVELAND, June 16 (U. P).— Tom M. Girdler, board chairman of the Republic Steel Corp., said today there is “real danger” that wartime regulation of American industry will be perpetuated beyond the post-war conversion period. “There are some who would like to see business continue doing

‘squads right’ and ‘squads left’ for |®

a long time to come” the industrialist warned in a luncheon talk to the Cleveland Chamber of Commerce.

Girdler, who also is board chair- |,

man of the Consolidated Vultee Aircraft Corp. said that industry

hind it the desire of union officials | Should be given an “honorable dis-

charge” from government regulation as soon as the war ends. “I am convinced that if these wartime restrictions are held over to meet the conversion crisis, there

is real danger that they will be, required later to meet other crises, |

and still others, on and on into perpetuity,” he declared, Hits Check-Off Girdler indicated in his speech

that his attitude toward certain practices of labor unions had not

‘| changed materially since the late

30's when he stubbornly opposed the C. I. Os organization of Republic Steel ‘Mills. In addition to wartime controls, he said, there are other government restrictions which have developed during the past 12 years including

“the strange spectacle of Uncle Sam turned union organizer and!

ues collector.” es of that has come the upbuilding of great labor unions with

large financial resources and tremendous ecenomis, and political | power,” he said.

| + Girdler said that leaders of some

of the new “mushroom unions” have | entered politics in an effort to in-| fluence elections with contributions | of “huge sums” toward the cam-! paigns of favored candidates.

Maintaining that. much of the

money in union treasuries represents checked-off dues, he pointed out that reports from companies | representing four-fifths of employ-! ment in the steel industry show that | last year they turned over to the union $3,709975 in dues from 301, ! 417 workers. i “When any portion of this money | is devoted to political purposes, the | effect is to force the wage earner | {to support candidates chosen by the |

gs | URIOD leaders and not by the wage- |

8 | earner himself,” he said. { However, Girdler remarked that | “the growth of labor organizations! in itself is not disturbing” and said |

collective bargaining was necessary |

in modern industry.

N. P. ‘A. listed 1499 advertisers who in 1943 invested $25,000 or more in any one of the four media, compared with 1207 spenders of $25,000 or more in 1942 and 1170 listed for 1941. No actual dollar figure was given for the expenditures of Procter & Gamble for 1943, but the association noted that General Foods was second biggest spender for advertising in all four media, followed by General Motors, Lever Bros.

where he is a recognized authority. He is going to do research work for Johns Hopkins university with the aim of writing a book on labor relations policies,‘ aimed at the postwer situation. He hopes to have.it ready before the war ends. Dr. Leiserson had a direct interest in the railway labor crisis because he was chairman of the national mediation board to which

maintaining industrial peace on the railroads. The records show that last winter's rail row was taken over by the White House with hardly a nod to the agency which thought it had the situation in hand, that it produced a short-time federal railroad seizure which later was charged to be unnecessary, and that the railway workers concerned eventually won a settlement approx- | imately as favorable as the wage increases they had agreed to accept | under the regular processes of the

mediation board.

Quiet on Dispute | But Dr. Leiserson said nothing of | this in his reasons for ending an official career that has included several other important labor ad- | ministrative posts. ‘He has been| requested by President Roosevelt to! hold himself on call for consultative or advisory duties. Numerous fears have been expressed on both sides of the industrial fence that unprecedented labor strife is likely when wartime controls and the patriotic urge are relaxed. Dr. Leiserson's studies will be directed toward pointing out how peace can be maintained, largely through a revamping of federal policy. Dr. Leiserson has an unusual record of accurate forecast of the difficulties into which present wartime labor policies would lead—such as the confusion of policy- -making and mediation and arbitration functions of the war laber board. Concerning one situation he stated in early 1942: “Should another crisis arise out of refusal of either employers or workers to accept any policy or decision of the war labor board, then

congress had given the duty of f

the President's veto the Connallye Smith war labor disputes act, which organized labor continues to cone demn bitterly and which even its advocates admit is far from pere { fect. Dr. Leiserson warned a few mnths ago that the country should not expect, when the war ends, that ‘management prejudices and - labor group interests will be suddenly dise carded, and that all concerned “will decide to make an entirely new start iby organizing and conducting our labor relations on some ideal basis.” But, he said, “if we reorganize and centralize our many war labor agencies and provide them with a uniform set of labor policies to be generally applied, confine the labor agencies to adjusting and arbitrate ing disputes, and separate them from the administration of ‘the stabilization « program, so that all workers will get what they are ene titled to under the program without the necessity of creating a labor dispute or filing an application for approval by a disputes board—then I think war production can be care ried on co-operatively with peacee ful labor relations and little time lost through work stoppages. And if we do something like this during the remainder of the war we shall have a practical plan which no doubt would be continued after the war.”
