BARGAINING HELD LABOR STRIFE KEY McGrady Declares 90 Per Cent of Warfare Could Have Been Averted. Ninety per cent of the industrial warfare that has stirred this country in the past four years would have been averted had labor been given the | right to organize and to be recognized for collective bargaining covering wages, hours and working conditions, Edward F. McGrady, Assistant Secre- tary of Labor, said in an address last night. McGrady, the principal shooter” of the department, spoke on the National Radio Forum, arranged by The Star and broadcast over a national network of the National Broadcasting Co. McGrady reviewed the status of la- bor from the days of serfdom in Epg- land and told of the struggles in the United States as the campaign for unionization went on “Reforms came, but they came pain- fully slowly,” he said, pointing out that, even recently, the Senate in- vestigation plonage by Presenting some empl year-by-yvear figures, | “trouble | disclosed anti-union es- | | McGrady showed that from this con- | dition nearly 7,700 strikes occurred in 1933-36, and in two months of this year there were 390 mo: Strike Costs Heavy. “It is impossible for me to tell you s in which he said, what price the commu strikes took place had to pay,” “and I have no reliable figures on the | financial losses to industry. However, | I do know the amounts involved in two recent strikes that came under my personal supervision. One cost $700,000.000 and the other $80.000,000. Explaining that the conciliation #ervice for labor disputes in the De- partment of Labor is only a permissive proposition, McGrady detailed the ef- forts the administration has made to set up a “national labor policy”—first through the National Recovery ministration latterly by the Wag- ner labor disputes act Wagner Act Challenged. Pointing out that industry is chal- lenging the Wagner act in the courts, contending it is in favor of labor, tinued: “As a result, during the past 20 months, 83 applications for injunc- tions were served all of them by industry. of these applicatians None of those denied was reversed by the Circuit Court of Appeals, but in the meantime injunctions were granted in 20 cases. The average de- lay up to the first of March, win or lose, was a little over seven months per case. “Labor feels very strongly about this and, having failed to secure these rights by law, is determined to obtain them by its economic strength. This is one industrial sore spot and will be the cause of much future trouble unless a remedy is found. “Doesn't it seem tragic that in this country, the richest Nation in the world, having the smartest busi- ness men in the world, and the most productive workers in the world, that industry and labor cannot of them- selves settle their differences in an intelligent and honorable manner without having to resort from time to time to industrial warfare, whose vitrations extend into every State in the Union? Time to Sheathe Swords. “If peace and good will are to be established and maintained among those associated with the industrial life of the Nation, it is high time that they sheathe their swords and think in terms of co-operation, under- | standing and mutuality. | “This involves the complete recog- nition of the rights of all who con- stitute the human force of industry. There can be no responsible relation- | ship where one industrial group | attempts to deny to another group the exercise of a legal or a moral right. As corporations become neces- sary in the formulation of industrial enterprises of trade, unions also be- come necessary in order to satisfy the desires of working men and women to organize for mutual advancement the speaker con- Fifty-nine FOUND.

As the owners of | industry exercise the right to form corporations, their working men and women want to exercise their right to form their own trade unions. Each group recognizing that the day of individualistic efforts and action has largely passed and that a new day of collective action is here. “If labor is given the right to or- ganize freely snd the right to bar- gain through representatives of its |own choosing on wages, hours and working conditions, it will have to assume the responsibility of discipline among its members, sacredness of | contract, efficiency of production and | bound to develop an intelligent and | co-operative spirit. | “With each side recognizing the full | rights of the other and respecting those rights benefits and advantages will come to industry, to the workers and to the general public, all of which will enrich the entire Nation. | “I have been reassured over and | over again by the leaders of the American trade union movement that if given an opportunity they are ready to assume these obligations in full. “The time has arrived for the lead- ers of both industry and labor to demonstrate their statesmanship.

Little remained, some observers close to the proceedings averred, in the composition of differences in the cost- ly dispute, which for more than three weeks has kept idle 60,000 Chrysler | Corp. employes and thousands of wage earners in related fields. Sources close to Gov. Murphy made these points in arguing that an agreement was imminent: Conferences have continued without | interruption; Sit-down strikers have been evac- uated; At no time has there been any in- timation that the conference would blow up; The principals understand each other and know about how far each will retreat; The time is psychologically ripe for a meeting of the minds. Await Lewis’ Return. An authoritative source demanding anonymity said Monday night an agreement was “’possible but not prob- able* within 24 hours. This source said an agreement probably would be deferred until the return of Lewis, who went to New York Sunday to participate in a soft coal contract parley. Stressing that Lewis continued in the foreground in the negotiations, a report grew today that an adjourn- | ment until he returned was likely to- day. Continuation of the conference despite his departure occasioned some surprise, since previously Gov. Murphy | had said the talks would be discon- tinued several days to accommodate both Lewis and Walter P. Chrysler, chairman of the Automotive Corp. Chrysler, however, stayed on, as did all other representatives of the op- posing factions. “Misunderstandings are gradually being cleared up,” the Governor said last night in reply to questions about progress. “I believe that as & result of the long conferences this far, a growing confidence has been estab- lished between the parties.” Talk Over Telephone. Murphy talked with Lewis by tele- | phone, but declined to discuss the con- | versation beyond calling it “satisfac- tory.” The eleventh session adjourned late yesterday afternoon, but conferees on both sides appeared engrossed there- | after in group discussions, and James { F. Dewey, Federal labor conciliator, visited both groups. Information eked from the princi- pals indicated the word ‘“exclusive” had been abandoned in discussing ex- tent of the bargaining power to be given the union, and that the settle- ment expected was one which would recognize the freedom of Chrysler em- ployes to deal through whomever they choose, while assuring the union its strategic position would not be en- dangered. The strike, which has closed eight large Detroit plants and smaller ones in Indiana and California, was felt today in Canada. The management of the Chrysler Corp. of Canada an- nounced it would close two factories in Windsor, Ontario, employing about 2,000 men, because of shortage of parts. Resumption of negotiations in the Reo Motor Car Co. strike here was scheduled today under guidance of Mayor Max A. Templeton, who brought the principals together nine days ago. Templeton said an agreement, restor- ing 2,200 wage earners to their jobs was imminent. Three Hudson Motor Car Co. plants in Detroit still were strikebound. Ne- gotiations were abandoned more than a week ago. Union offices said the next move must come from Hudson representatives. ‘Gov.

CHICAGO, March 30.—The Na- tional Socialist party was on record | today in support of the John L. Lewis Committee for Industrial Organiza- tion and “united front” co-operation with working class groups. A resolution adopted at closing ses- sions yesterday of the party's special convention coupled indorsement of the C. I. O. with criticism of the Executive Council of the American Federation of Labor. The convention also adopted reso- lutions condemning anti-Semitism and urging Great Britain to free congres= sional leaders of India “now under ar- rest."” ecutive Committee to help build a na- tional Farmer-Labor party “whenever circumstances are favorable.” Charge Against A. F. of L. ‘The resolution indorsing the C. I. O. charged the A. F. of L. Executive Council attempied to *“destroy this progressive tendency” and contended that in the automobile and steel con- troversaries the A. F. of L. “played a disruptive role by fighting recognition | of unions as the sole agencies for the workers.” Although supporting the C. I. O., the resolution objected to what it said was the dependency of C. I. O. leader- ship upon “the political alliance with the Democratic party.” It also warned workers against “hasty abandonment” of the A. F. of L. despite “recent vic- tories” of the Lewis group. bargaining The resolution said suspension of | C. 1. O. unions by the A. F. of L. “created the danger of a split in the | American labor movement,” and that | every effort should be made to “pre- serve the unity of labor.” “United Front” Resolution. Approved by the newly elected Na- tional Executive Committee, the “united front” resolution advocated mobilization “not of the small mi- nority of workers already committed to an advance or revolutionary pro- gram, but to the great masses of the useful workers of hand and brain.” “The Socialist party,” the resolution said, “should vigorously work for spe- cific co-operative or united front un- dertakings with trade and industrial unions in connection with campaigns for the organization of labor, and in behalf of the unemployed in the devel- opment of consumers’ co-operati ¢ * * and in the building of a gen- uine Farmer-Labor party.” Hilaire Belloc to Speak.

Meanwhile, three industrial plants were closed by new sit-down strikes while police investigated a new inci- dent of violence in a strike of taxicab drivers that began last week. The new strikes were in the plants of the Solvay Process Co., the Na- tional Stamping Co. and the Buell Die & Machine Co. Seventeen men in the Solvay plant shut off the power and began a sit- down strike last night. Later they completed processes already under way to avert loss of materials and damage to machinery. The Solvay Co. employs 350 men. Seventy-five policemen, who inves- tigated a report that non-employes had taken over the plant, withdrew after ascertaining that only present or recently discharged employes were in the plant. Union employes, affil- iated with the United Automobile ‘Workers, said that 60 men who were active in the union were dismissed within the last two weeks. Ray- mond E.

BY BLAIR BOLLES, ‘The World Textile Conference, which has lured Germany to i Geneva- arranged convention for the first time in four years, threatened today to invite a conflict between the American Federation of Labor and the Com- mittee for Industrial Organization. The fight centers around the selec- tion of the workers' delegate to the conference, which opens here Friday at the call of the International Labor Office in Geneva. The difficulty lies in the fact that the choice must be satis- factory to labor in general, which means the faction led by John L. Lewis as well as the conservative group headed by William Green. Although the United States is en- titled to representatives of the Gov- ernment and the employers as well as of labor at the meeting, no repre- sentatives at all have yet been chosen. Men and women from the other con- ferring countries are arriving daily for the two-week session at the De- partmental Auditorium. Rail Brotherhood May Serve. Green has been this country’s work- ers’ delegate to the International Labor Office since the United States voted to join the organization in 1934, but he always has been repre- sented by a proxy. One suggested way out of the difficulty woéuld be the appointment of a member . f a railroad brotherhood, affiliated with neither the Green A. F. of L. nor the Lewis C.IO. The Netherlands, whose organized workers are split on religious grounds, was confronted with a somewhat similar difficulty. It named as its labor delegate a member of the Protestant union, but sent as advisers one r.ember of the Catholic Union and another Protestant union man. The labor delegate is G. Rengelink, presi: dent of the Dutch Textile Worker: General Federation De Eendracht. The Catholic adviser is A. van der| Mays, president of the Catholic Tex- | tile Workgrs' Union St. Tambertus. Seek Textile Solution. Already 14 countries, including the leading textile producers of the world, | have signified their intention of at- tending what may be one of the most | important international conventions | in years from an economic stand- point. Its purpose is to standardize | working conditions in the textile in- | dustry, which is more international in its scope than almost any other industry in the world. The decision of Germany to send Dr. Walther Becker, commercial at- tache at the embassy here, as an | “official observer” came as a surprise, | for Berlin has avoided such confer- ences since her decision in 1933 to | resign simultaneously from the League | | of Nations and the International La- bor Office. A meeting called by the {1 L. O. last month on raw materials | was disrupted and canceled because of Germany's refusal to attend. The German census of 1933 shows that 1,117,583 men and women were | employed in the textile business in | that country. The only other coun- | tries with more workers dependent |on textiles are India, the United States, Great Britain and Japan. Ger- | many’s textile market among her own | people is the largest in Europe out- side the United Kingdom, and what- ever decision this conference inspires would have considerable influence on the German industry. 13 Decline Representation. Of the 62 countries invited to the | conference, all the members of the L L. O, 13, none of them with inter- ests in textiles, have declined, while | these have definitely decided to be‘ represented — the United Kingdom, | France, India, Belgium, Finland, Lat- | via, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Japan, | Sweden, the United States, Mexico, | Uruguay and Guatemala. The official languages of the meet- ing will be English and French. After every English talk a translation will be rendered from the platform in French, and after every French talk an interpreter will repeat it in Eng- lish. Delegates who speak other lan- guages can listen by ear phones to translations in Spanish, German, Jap- anese, probably Portuguese and a Scandinavian language. —_— SIX CHILDREN HURT Driver of Car Dies in Collision ‘With School Bus.

BACKGROUND— Admittedly far behind other Eu- Topean powers in military strength, Great Britain has begun vast arm- ament program contemplating eventual expenditure of more than $7.,000,000,000. With European war fears grow- ing daily every effort is being made to expedite arms construction and recruiting. By the Assoclated Press. LONDON, March 30.—British de- fense chiefs were reported anxious today lest a strike of 2,000 Scottish steel workers mushroom into a na- tion-wide work stoppage by 120,000 persons and cripple Britain’s $7,500,- 000,000 five-year rearmament pro- gram. Government observers kept close watch on the strike by workers of the Parkhead forge of the William Beardmore Co. at Glasgow to de- termine whether t3 intervene to pre- vent a halt in admiralty work Skilled engineers among the Glas- gow strikers today sought indorse- ment of their strike by the Executive Committee of the National Amal- gamated Union of Engineers, meeting in.Lendon. Fear General Strike. If such indorsement should be forthcoming, certain observers feared it would bring a general engineering strike affecting thousands of workers. The amalgamated claims a member- ship of 120,000. Some observers said a compromise was envisaged in the Scottish strike because the workers were demanding only an increase of 2 cents an hour on wages of about 815 weekly. The company has said they already were getting the district minimum wage. The rearmament program has speeded work and broadened employ- ment in scores of factories which for years had been depressed. Workers’ demands in the Glascow and other strikes for more pay and better work- |ing conditions followed increases in companies’ earnings and dividends. Thus far work in the arms program has been progressing according to schedule. One of the main units of the Royal Air Force expansion program, the Rolls Royce alrcraft engine works at Derby, returned to normal operating conditions March 11 after a three- week strike by grinders of high-pre- cision tools. The strike, which af- fected 4,500 men, ended with a prom- ise to negotiate the demand for a wage increase. Twelve hundred workers at the Whitehead torpedo works in Dorset staged a two-day stoppage in protest of what their leaders charged was a contract violation by the management in transferring two men from one type of work to another. That strike ended March 19. [STRIKERS LOCKED IN, FIRM SEEKS OUSTER Atlanta Baking Company Will Appeal to Law to Re- move Sit-ins. B the Associated Press.

LORD TWEEDSMUIR 10 ARRIVE TODAY Ceremonial Welcome Is Ar- ranged Here for Governor General of Canada. 8Y the As:ociated Press. High Government officials arranged a ceremonial welcome for Canada’s Governor General, Lord Tweedsmuir, on his arrival late today for a state call on President Roosevelt. Honors usually reserved for visiting royalty will be accorded him during his two-day stay as the personal rep- resentative in Canada of King George VI of England. He and Lady Tweedsmuir will be guests of the. President and Mrs, Roosevelt at the White House until Thursday evening, returning the call made on them last Summer by the American Chief Executive. Officials described their visit as purely social. It was emphasized that the Governpr General is not author- ized to take up official matters with the President, although it was taken for granted they would seize any oppors tunity to exchange views on interna=- tional affairs generally. Their mutual interest in fishing and in literature also was expected to fur= nish topics for more personal cone versations. Lord Tweedsmuir in pri- vate life is John Buchan, celebrated British historian and novelist Persons close to the administration stressed the visit as another mani- festation of the friendly -elations be- tween the United States and Canada. Prime Minister W. L. Mackenzie King of Canada was entertained at the White House less than a month ago on & visit also described here as purely personal Secretary and Mrs. Hull headed & group of State Department officials and uniformed Army and Navy offi« cers designated to greet Lord and Lady Tweedsmuir at.
