OLD PATTERN SEEN ~ IN LABORS POLICY,

Fight on Hatch-Ball- all-Burton

Bill Recalls Group Opposition

To Other Reforms Later Hailed as Beneficial to Their Opponents.

(Editorial, Page 6; see

“Labor,” Page 17)

By Scripps-Howard Newspapers WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.—Organized labor leaders, opposing legislation to stabilize labor-industry relations, are following a pattern set by many groups in the past as the government sought to restrain power and privilege. Yet much legislation once protested as destructive of the American system is accepted without question now, and

s . . many interests once in opposition today would not give up the very laws they fought. The list of laws bitterly opposed is long: regulation of interstate commerce, anti-trust laws, the pure food and drug act, the law establishing the parcel post system, the Norris - La Guardia anti-injunction act, the Tennessee Valley Authority act, stock exchange reform, public utility holding company reform, the original wage-hour law. There are many others. Assail Labor-Industry Bill Today President Philip Murray of the C. I. O. calls the Hatch-Ball-Burton bill “a bill to enslave labor,” and “unquestionably the most baldfaced attempt to destroy labor unions,” and “a resort to anti-demo-cratic devices and concepts.” To the’ United Mine Workers the bill is a “scheme blueprinted to rob the poor and further enrich the rich,” and a “cleverly designed ripper bill” The A. F. of L. calls it “obnoxious” and “one of the most dangerous anti-labor measures ever introduced.” That is the same type of attack that the big business used often before to resist reform. Back in the 1870's and ‘80's the idea of federal regulation of interstate commerce took 15 years of larruping before congress passed such a law, Has Won Recognition For years now the interstate commerce commission has been generally credited with doing a good job. Regulation in other fields has been patterned on its authority and pro-

cedure. Yet when the I. C. C. bill was before congress in 1886, Senator Brown of Georgia warned that “if you pass such a law as this you will derange the whole transportation of the country, and either drive the railroads generally into bankruptcy or prohibit interchange of commodities at a distance greater than 500 or 600 miles . . . such a law would not only destroy interstate commerce but would utterly ruin our foreign commerce.” Many feared for the type of commission that might be established. The bill] forbade I. C. C. commissioners from having a financial interest in railroads, and in the house Rep. Grosvenor of Ohio warned that the members would be “tramps” or “paupers.” Senator Riddleberger said he could take three (then a majority) commissioners, and select three railroad magnates who could “hang them on their watch chaing and display them for charms around the country.” He asked how anybody could expect much of commissioners whose “pockets will be filled with passes.” Senator Morgan feared blackmail as a product of the new law and saw it conferring “autocratic and oligarchic power.” Fought Pure Food Act In 1906, when the pure food and drug act was being considered in congress, the dire prediction was made by one spokesman of industry that if a certain provision were included “it will close up every drug store in the United States.” The parcel post system seems a harmless part of the government's operation today, yet when the authorizing law was being considered in 1912, opponents contended that a general parcel post would *. , , tend to concentrate business in the large cities and injure rural and small towns and cities; that it was paternalistic and dangerdus in its tendencies; that it would create enormous postoffice deficits. They added that it would revolutionize the commercial system of the United States; seriously delay delivery of legitimate mail; deplete or destroy the prosperity of innumerable country villagés and towns, and that therefore it must be regarded as a menace to the welfare of all the people.” “Class legislation” criticism against it. Flayed Regulation Act When the Clayton act, supplementing the Sherman anti-trust act, was before congress in 1914, a minority committee report said: “No possible good can come from constant interference with business.

have a rest from further legislation and be given opportunity to adjust itself to the environment created by existing anti-trust laws , , , it is very undesirable to bring about such od of uncertainty and doubt to the country and harass the business of the country.” L. P. Loree, president of the Delaware and Hudson railroad, warned in opposing a section of the law

that “curtailment of the ordinary rights of ownership must reduce the

STEEL WALKOUT IS THREATENED

Murray to Ask Strike Vote Next Week.

By UNITED PRESS A work stoppage in the nation’s steel, aluminum and iron ore industries, which would be the biggest blow to reconversion since the end of the war, loomed today as a possibility should wage increases fail’ to materialize.

C. I. O, President Philip Murray disclosed last night that the United Steel Workers Union would petition for a strike vote among more than 700,000 of its members to back a demand for a $2-a-day pay boost. Murray sald basis for the action, similar to that which prompted recent nation-wide strike votes in the automotive industry, was the major steel producers’ “outright refusal” to grant increases “necessary to sustain purchasing power and prevent another depression.” Murray said he would submit an immediate request for a strike vote for 640,000 workers in the 766 steel producing and allied companies which already have formally re~ jected the union's demand. Would Involve 700,000 Strike petitions, covering “in excess of 700,000 workers,” would be on file with the national labor relations board within 30 days as other companies formally turn down the demand, Murray said. The threat of drastic action from two of the nation’s biggest and most powerful unions—the steel workers and the C. I. O. United Auto Workers—underlined the urgency of announcing an administration wage-price policy. President Truman has promised to make public the long-awaited government policy in radio address Tuesday night. Union leaders in both the steel and auto workers unions have cautioned members against premature strike action but have said, in effect, that they will not stand for more delay by the manufacturers. More Pay or Strike In the automotive industry, where Chrysler and General Motors employees have given union leaders overwhelming * assurance of their support, U. A. W.-C. 1. O. officials told the companies to “answer quickly. Either there will be more pay or a walkout.” Warning that “free men will not crawl on their knees forever,” U. A. W. Vice President Walter P. Reuther disclosed that 45 General Motors and 22 Chrysler locals al- » ready have conducted intra-union strike ballots. Negotiations between General Motors and the union were recessed vesterday until the company presents its answer to union demands “within 10 days.” Chrysler negotiations on the U. A. W, demand for a 30 per cent blanket wage increase will begin within the next few days.

G. M. Argument

Throughout the - negotiations, General Motors spokesmen reiterated that argument that it is impossible to raise wages without increasing the price of new cars. The union, on the other hand, has maintained that the company can increase wages 30 per cent, lower prices and still make higher profits than ever before. Meantime, lesser strikes were called off pending announcement of an official declaration on wages and prices. There were only 186,000 workers idle in strikes and shutdowns today,

month, and top U. 8. labor officials reported a definite improvement in the over all situation,

“Settled 274 Strikes

Edgar L, Warre, director of the labor department's conciliation service, said his agency had settled 274 strikes, directly affecting 298,000 persons, from Oct. 1 to Oct. 24. During the same period, he said, 54 new strikes were assigned to the conciliation service, Unless union and company repre sentatives in the heavy industries fail to agree. Warren predicted, the next three weeks will reduce strikes “to a figure that is near normal.” A strike vote among steel, aluminum .and fron ore workers would be the largest conducted by the NLRB and include workers in such large companies as the Aluminum Corp. of America and U. 8.

BY DONNA MIKELS The holiday is over, Some 23,000 Hoosier schoolmen and marms drew their first deep breath in 48 hours today as the 92d annual Indiana State Teach ers’ convention came to an end. In Indianapolis,” the remnants of 15,000 teachers and administrators who had dominated the city for two days still could be seen winding up loose ends of the convention or hurrying about last minute shopping. Three other Indiana cities, Pt. Wayne, Gary and South Bend, took down their “Welcome Teachers” signs and settled back to normalcy after playing hosts to three other teachers’ parleys, held simultaneously with the conclave here. Visual and Auditory Most of the educators were on their way back to schoolhouses that would, seem just a little bit dingier after absorption in pictures of postwar plastic education palaces, Globes would seem outmoded after exhibits full of revised editions. One of the*principal features at the first peacetime convention in five years were tables filled with visual and auditory education developments proposed as features of the post-war school, as well as the usual textbook and equipment exhibits. After struggling through committee reports yesterday morning, the teachers wound up the convention with two lecture sessions.

Warns of War Danger Yesterday afternoon” they heard Mrs. Raymond Clapper, wife of the late Indianapolis Times correspondent, speak on “Behind the Washington Scene,” and John Charles Gilbert, actor, singer and lecturer, presenting “The Mirth and Melody of Gilbert and Sullivan.” Discussing the war problem, Mrs, Clapper said: “From the conversations one hears in Washington, you can surmise that we are already in an international political war, which if it does not stop will lead inevitably to a shooting war.” With the statement that “in Washington today there are too few leaders with imagination and
