Lilienthal. in a speech before the Internat al Congress of Women. said the Tennessee Valley “has become the battle front in the age-old war on in- &ecurity, on poverty, on human misery. “Instead of men wearing their lives out to get a precarious living out of lands not really suited for farming. the valley should be charted and planned so that agriculture will be carried on only on the land best adapted for it.” Lilienthal said “We may reasonablv anticipate that the President’s plan for the Tennessee Valley may greatly hasten the dav when Jow-cost power w be a human and a liberating force. bringing with it every manner of cconomic and social benefit to our people,” he said AWAITS WORD ON NAVY 8till McCormick, Stanley Mc- of in Dark on Fate of Modern- 1g Program for Ships.

BY DAVID LAWRENCE. B-neath the surface of major events there’s considerable discussion now- adays here as to the future of labor | unions in America. The manufacturers | think the industrial control law gives | the unfors a big advantage and already ¢ mplaints are coming In as to union- | izing efforts that are being carrled on | Intensively in non-union shops and | plants, Labor leaders. on the other hand. if the truth be told. are equally anxious { For while they have been endowed by | the new law with the right of collective ! bargaining. they also have been fcrced to swallow what amounts to compulsory jarbitration. In other words, it's all | very well for the unions to bargain and | bargain for higher wages but under ! the code system, the industrial reccvery 1 administration has the final say as to | what labor costs shall be At the moment there are guarantees and assurances as 10 minimum wages land shert hours. But supposing the cost of living goes up materally and ‘the wage-earners want more income. | They will get it naturally, but the ccn- /sumer will intervene to keep the wage ! from gecing too high lest the cost to | the public become exorbitant. Emphasis on Minimum. | Today. therefore, the emphasis is on minimum wages. In a few months it pay be an ¢nhasis on consumer costs. | The Government having taken the full ! responsibility or industrial control, can by the licensing system close a plant or industry or business or store. It | also can authorize the employment of any kind of labor to supplant the labor | that strikes or refuses to accept the Government_dictation. There are even some who think labor unicns could be licensed in A given area or industry | and that unlicensed labor unions could be outlawed just as unlicensed em- ! ployers But of these eventualities there is little discussion now. The main con- {cern 1s what the future power of the labor unfon leader will be. 1f the Gov- ernment settles wage questions. then { what purpose does the paving of union dues serve? It will be argued by the labor leaders that laws can be repealed and trade unionism left high and dry l'unless labor union membership is kept up and that unionization is more neces- sary now than ever as means of com- pelling justice for labor at Government hearings. Unquestionably & system of arbitra- |tion will be evolved with a machinery { of conciliation in labor disputes and the | final authority will be the Pederal Gov- ernment somewhat as in the case today | with railroad labor except that under | code control there mav be far I clumsiness in arriving at an adjudica- | tion of the issues in dispute Sporadic Strikes Now. There are sporadic strikes now here and there throughout the country. But (in all of these instances the code plan i has not yet been put into effect. E | ployers affected by these outbreaks ! ready are appealing to the Government for help. Labor costs are a vital factor [in industrial recovery and the control of prices. Up to now the attention of the public has been focussed on employ- ers. As labor troubles develop there will be a test of the Government's | power over labor. Politics will naturally enter into the picture somewhat though | to a less degree than before because it 1s_unlikely anything like sympathetic ike action would be feasible if large aroups of employes are satisfied. with the wages they receive and if. it would conceivably happen, a concerted action would be a strike agamnst the Government ftself The Industrial Recovery Administra- tion is a new force for labor to reckon with and some day we shall perhaps call the new law an act to control em- | ploves as well as employers in their re- { 1ation to wages paid and consumer costs.

By (he Associated Press After a controversy vesterday between Secretary of War Dern and Secretary of Interior Ickes over whether an Army heusing and motorization _program should be included in the pub'ic works schedule, President Rocsevelt may have to act as arbiter. The conflict came to light in a state- | ment by Secretary Dern that he had asked delay in consideration of the Army’s program when he foresaw ad- verse action. Army Work Justified. Dern held that allocations to the| Army from the public works fund were fully justified, but other members of the board have contended they do not | qualify under the requisite that all| projects must be “socially benefictal.” Dern called “misleading” reports that he had withdrawn the Army es- | timates. This was announced Monday by Ickes. “There can be no legitimate objec- tion to this class of public expendl- tures, except from those who do not believe in maintaining an Army at all,” Dern said in his statement. In his statement on Army housing and motorization, issued after Ickes had given the impression the Army proposals had bcen withdrawn, Dern said “I was not satisfied with the action that I anticipated was about to be taken by the board and therefore asked that further consideration be dropped until a subsequent meeting.” The statement sald the United States Army is seventeenth among those of the world and that, while there is no thought of enlarging this Army.
