Meanwhile, in a significant article
carried in the current issue of a na
tional weekly magazine, Bowles re
vealed that the "crisis in clothes" is
not something that has arisen over
night. It has been long in the mak
ing.
"Mistakes" by the government itself
are in large part responsible, he ad-
OPPOSES"FINDING"
BOARDS, COLLECTIVE
BARGAINING UPHELD
Washington, D. C.—William H.
Davis, former chairman of the War
Labor Board, told the Senate Com
mittee on Education and Labor that
government intervention in labor dis
putes in peacetime defeated the basic
purpose of collective bargaining and
rendered the achievement of indus
trial peace far more difficult.
So long as there was held out to
each side in a labor dispute the possi
bility that it might gain more from
government intervention than it
could by its own efforts, any legisla
tion would aggravate rather than
ameliorate the problems, he said.

Bowles Warned Manufacturers Who Have Engaged In A
Sit-Down Strike Hoping To Force Price Increases
Washington, D. C.—OPA Adminis
trator Chester Bowles promised vigor
ous government action to increase
production and supply of reasonably
priced clothing now practically unob
tainable in the stores.
The move was designed especially
to provide more civilian clothing for
returning veterans.
Bowles warned manufacturers who
have engaged in a sit-down strike in
the hope of forcing increases in price
ceilings that the OPA will not permit
price boosts as a stimulant to pro
duction.

THE BUTLER
OPA To Spur Clothing
Production But Bars
General Price Boost
mitted. He blamed the situation on
the failure of the War Production
Board and OPA to take drastic steps
early in the war to head off the crisis.
Way back then, he said, the govern
ment should have prohibited or sharp
ly reduced production of high-priced
evening dresses, other luxury apparel
and costly draperies. It should have
set up tight controls to "prevent the
shift to high-price, high-profit lines."
Also, it should have established bet
ter controls to keep out "shoddy"
garments and to have required pro
duction of necessary quantities of
good lower-priced clothing. Above all,
it should have started apparel ration
ing in the spring of 1943, he said.
"OPA certainly must carry its full
share of the blame," he conceded.
"In 1942 and 1943 and through
much of 1944, OPA failed to take
sufficient vigorous action."
"You can't pull John Jones out of
bed and make him go to work if he
doesn't want to," asserted Mr. Davis
"And, believe me, strikes don't con
tinue indefinitely. The old lady at
home will want to know before long
where the next day's meals are com
ing from.
"Yes, you eould require unions to
post cash bonds not to violate con
tracts. But a national union with
$5,000,000 in its treasury and half a
million members can exhaust that sum
in strike benefits in two or three
weeks."
In similar blunt langugae, Mr.
Davis indivated that he thought Presi
dent Truman was off on the wrong
foot in advocating fact-finding boards.
"If I were in the driver's seat," he
said, "I would say to you: don't
legislate in the lighWor perhaps
should say the heaWof these con
troversies.

than all of the following diseases combined: Scarlet Fever, Infantile
Paralysis, Typhoid Fever, Meningitis, Peritonitis, Diptheria, Dysen

TTie American Cancer Society states that, contrary to common
misconception, cancer is not solely a disease of middle or old age*

You are faced with an inevitable
impost-war situation. It is something

Immovable object, so far as anything
is concerned that the government can
I "do."
He advocated larger salaries and
larger staff for the United States
Conciliation Service.
This force, most of its members
getting not more than $4,200 a year,
had done wonders in getting capital
and labor to settle their disputes, he
said.
