CONSUMERS REBEL and betweer 1 0l pol While OPA’s new Admimstrator Paul Porter, was busy trying to appease farm and cotton belt Con- gressmen the other day, he nearly had his main political prop knock- ed from under him. The AFL, CIO and Railroad Brotherhoods served notice that they were about to withdraw their adviscry staffs from the OPA. Since labor is now OPA’s staunchest backer, this would have been a death blow. What most people don't realize is that the AFL, CIO and the Railroad Brotherhoods maintain a staff of about 20 cost-of-living ad-, visers which works alongside the OPA. They represent the largest block of American consumers. However, without consulting these consumer representatives, Porter put through some highly important price increases on meat, canned goods, fresh fruit, crude oil and bread. As a result, the AFL, CIO and Brotherhood members got together and decided to recommend to their chiefs that their staffs be with- drawn from the OPA. But when Jack Thorton, Chair- man of the CIO Cost-of-Living Committee, reported this to CIO Chief Phil Murray, Murray picked up the phone and called Paul Por- ter. The latter was flabbergasted, urged that the consumer advisers remain and promised that they would not be by-passed in the fu- ture. For the time being they are remaining. | Note—What labor doesn't alto-| sether realize is that wage increas- es for unions are bound to result in a higher living cost—for them as well as white collar workers.
