Labor Spokesma n Discusses Strikes WASHINGTON. Feb. 10.—(I TP)An American Federation of I .abor jipokesman, adding to labor pro tests against the little steel wage coiltro! formula, today blamed warUni" strikes on the "disgraceful failure of the stabilization program.” The statement was made by Phllir Pearl, editor of the AFL news *>r vice, coincident with a report from Secretary of Uobor Francos Perkin; that there were 3,750 strikes laa year, an Increase of 25 per cent ove‘ 1942. The number of workers ir. volved was more than twice that fo 1 the preceding year, and the figur for man-days of strike idleness wa. more than three times as great.
Miss Perkins’ report showed that strike idleness amounted to .14 per cent of the available working time last yea?- (.05 exclusive of the four Coal strikes i compared with .05 per Cent in 1942. .32 in 1941, .10 in 1940 md .28 in 1939. Pearl, backed up his denunciation of the stabilization program by cttng the joint AFL-CIO report which leclared that living costs had risen 43.5 per cent since Jan. 1, 1941, compared with the 23.4 per cent rise shown in the government’s index and he 15 per rent wage increase allow'd by the little steel formula. Corporal Ralph Lawter, stationed it Camp Atterbury, is spending a ew days with his relatives near Jorton.
It is darkest before the dawn. It is God’s world and we appreciate joyful days all the more because we aro not surfeited: Bleissed are they that mourn for they shall be comforted.— Matt. 5:6.
