By John L. Lewis President, United Mine Woikers of America.
In the year since the formation of the CIO (Committee for Industrial Organization) the American labor movement has made rapid and encouraging progress, especially ln the modem mass-productlon Industries. The United Rubber workers have increased their member ship ten-fold. The United Auto workers, with newly acquired self-government. now encompass what were formerly four different competing organizations.
The great steel campaign has caught the interest and aroused the hope of millions of workers not only In the steel mills but also in related plants throughout the country. Craftsmen In the service and building trades have likewise been aided in organization efforts.
Unions Indicted
Yet in spite of this new wave of progress, there are some who talk as if the continued existence of the CIO will mean a spilt in the labor movement, and that a split will mean calamity. To my mind, the labor movement has been faced with calamity in the past, rather than in the future—the calamity of embracing fewer than one-tenth of the organizable workers when the recent depression overwhelmed the nation.
The unions in the CIO know that
By William Green President, the American Federation of Labor.
Organized labor faces the future with its hopes high, its courage strengthened, and with a firm determination to reach new heights in economic and social improvement.
This attitude of the workers Is based upon the state of mind of the American people expressed and made clear at the recent election... Thus organized labor is winning Its fight for recognition not only of itself as a constructive force In our social and economic life, but for recognition and acceptance of Its policies, principles and ideals.
Labor Nears Goal The officers and members of the organized labor movement are firmly convinced that they are now nearer to the realization of their objectives than they have ever been in all the history of our country.
The standing, strength and influence of the American Federation of Labor will not be impaired because of internal differences or internal strife.
Labor can confidently look forward to the realization of higher standards of life and living and a greater degree of leisure because the shorter work-day must be applied as a remedy for unemployment and human displacement.
Program Launehed In addition a program of social { security has been definitely launch-
es third week with little prospect of immediate peace.
Four other mayors of Pacific coast cities were reported either enroute or planning to go to Washington for the same purpose.
Ros~i. however, was accompanied only by a friend, not an official, this afternoon when he started a trip hr hopes might bring an end to thc paralysis of commerce that is becoming more serious daily.
Mayors Travel
John F. Dore, Seattle's chief executive who in his administration has supported labor strongly; Mayor Frank Shaw, Los Angeles, chief executive. and Joseph K. Carson, Jr., mayor of Portland, also were re-por.ed pointing toward Washington visits.
Many appeals went to Edward F. McOrady, assistant secretary of labor, who worked for a month seeking to prevent the strike and who has spent the last two weeks in a series of conferences with Pacific coast shipowners and the seven unions representing their 35,000 employes.
Conference Called
McGrady called union leaders into another conference at his headquarters tonight.
He was working on a plan for obtaining an agreement on the hiring question as the opening wedge to complete peace. Ship operators are demanding more of a voice in dispatch of crews to man their ships and unload their cargoes. The unions, seeking to retain thc control of hiring they obtained through the 1934 strike, have refused to yield on this control or to submit the question to arbitration.
One of the most important disputes was settled in San Francisco when wholesale grocery warehouse workers returned to work with a wage increase of seven and one half cents an hour won in a two week; tieup that left grocers short ol many staples.
As a matter of fact it looked like child's play. The soroban reminds one of a type of toy Santa Clnus brings to little children to help them learn to count. The instrument has a rectangular wooden framework supporting wires on which spools have been placed.
Namihi Itabashi. president of the Oriental cultural society, acted as interpreter. He wrote the answers to the "sticklers" on the blackboard. It took him longer to write the answers than it took for the solutions.
their future well-being depends on i ed. which will provide for unem-
the organization of the tens of mil lions of those now unorganized. We did not form the CIO lightly. We were, and we are, convinced that aggressive industrial unions must be built up in the great anti-union industries if American wage earners are to improve their status, and lf the labor movement is to have any continued power for good. The old stand-pat craft policies long ago proved futile In those areas.
Split Questionable Whether or not this new life will split the shell of the A. F. of L. depends on the controlling craft group that make up that shell. They have chosen to suspend the CIO unions without authority, in violation of the A. F. of L. constitution and over the protests of the membership.
ployinent insurance, old age pensions, old age benefits and health insurance.
I visualize labor as standing at the threshold of a new day. This will mean that life and living will take on new meaning for the wage earner and for the masses of the people. Organized labor will be the instrumentality through which these great economic and human achievements will be reached.
