AFL President Attacks
Labor Relations Board
Ruling Against Kaiser
Green Terms Charges
Of Unfair Labor Practice
A Victory for Axis
The American Federation of
Labor was at war with the National
Labor Relations Board again today.
William Green. AFL president,
described the action of the board
in citing three Henry J. Kaiser
shipyards for alleged unfair labor
practices because of a closed shop
agreement with the AFL as a vic
tory for the Axis because “produc
tion will be detrimentally affected.”
He threatened to ask Congress, if
necessary, to remove the board
members whom he called “incom
petent, unfair and unrealistic.”
In Portland. Oreg.. Edgar F. Kaiser,
manager of the affected Portland
and Vancouver yards, said the board
action “may ultimately aflfebt the
whole shipbuilding industry on the
Pacifig Coast,” according to the
Associated Press.
AFL Protests Anticipated.
The board announced Thursday It
had issued the complaint, charging
the contracts had been made when
few. if any, employes had been
hired. If the contracts are invali
dated. a collective bargaining elec
tion may be held.
Tire AFL protestations were an
ticipated by the board when it issued
a statement Thursday over the name
of Chairman H. A. Millis. The
statement said. “Public hearings in
board cases « * * have not had the
rfleet of interfering with war pro
duction.”
Mr. Green's statement, issued yes
terday, said. “The basis of the NLRB
complaint is the fact that Mr. Kaiser
signed a closed shop contract with
Ifi AFL unions before any appreci
able number of employes was hired
in these three shipyards. If such
a contract is illegal or reprehensible,
then every construction firm in tlie
United States and the Government
itself stands indicted by the Na
tional Labor Relations Board.
Practice Called Legal.
“How were all our new Army
camps, naval training stations and
airfields built?” the statement asked.
“Government agencies or private
contractors working for the Gov
ernment signed agreements with
AFL unions to supply the men to
do the work. It was done efficiently
and in record-breaking time. By
signing a similar agreement with
a group of metal and building trades
unions affiliated with the American
Federation of Labor, Mr. Kaiser
followed an immemorial, efficient
and completely legal trade practice.
The results of his shipyards speak
for themselves.”
It was indicated that the com
pany would enter denials to the La
bor Board charges and would main
tain that it had followed provisions
of its master agreement with the
Portland Metal Trades Council and
regulations set up under the Wagner
Act. In Portland the view was ex
pressed that the case probably would
reach the Supreme Court to deter
mine. among other things, what con
stitutes a majority under the Wag
ner Act and when that majority
must be determined.
The company maintains the ma
jority is determined at the time the
demand for recognition is made, as
serting that otherwise elections
would have to be held every few
months.

160,000 Detroit Motorists
Fail to Register for Gas
F' ih*» Associated Press.
DETROIT, Nov. 21.—Many thou
sands of Detroit motorists still were
unregistered for gasoline rationing
today after the close of the three
day registration period for the basic
“A" ration books.
Officials of the Office of Price Ad
ministration here estimated that
more than 160,000 had failed to reg
ister. There are an estimated 546.
000 motorists in the city. Registra
tion had fallen off after the open
ing day Wednesday.
E. T. Broadwell, head of gasoline
rationing in Michigan, said many
Detroiters might have decided to
Quit driving, but that that still
would leave “many thousands”
still unaccounted for.
"We are facing a serious prob
lem.” Mr. Broadwell sgid. “We've
got to get these people to work, and.
frankly, we just don't know what
We'll do ”
Mr. Broadwell said he believed
many persons apparently had hoped
for “a last-minute reprieve” from
Washington, in view of present agi
tation for delay of Nation-wide ra
tioning. and had decided not to reg
ister.
The OPA pointed out that the un
registered drivers faced the likeli
hood of driving with no more gaso
line than that in their tanks after
December 1, when Nation-wide ra
tioning begins, although there are
provisions for resuming basic ration
ing December 2.

President Asks Day of Silence
On Pearl Harbor Anniversary
President Roosevelt will not take
any official notice of the anniver
sary of the Japanese attack on Pearl
Harbor December 7, which he feels
' should be observed as a day of
silence in remembrance of a great
infamy.”
A White House statement explain
ing the President's attitude late
yesterday said, however, that this
need not interfere with programs al
ready arranged under private aus
pices for December 7.
The Office of War Information
later advised communities and or
ganizations to carry out any plans
they had made for observance which
recognized the ‘ realistic” nature of
the date.
Arrangements have been made
especially for religious services at
all land and sea establishments
of the armed forces on Sunday, De
cember 6. or Monday, December 7,
the OWI said. At Pearl Harbor,
a large memorial service will be
held and broadcast to the United
States.
A million posters, many of them
carrying the slogan “Avenge Pearl
Harbor,” will be distributed through
out the country. Special newsreels
will appear in theaters and about
40 special radio programs will go
on the air.
The text of the White House
statement follows:
“The President will not deliver
an address on December 7, nor take
official notice of that anniversary.
“The President does not feel that
this attitude on the part of the
Government need interfere with the
carrying out of programs already
arranged under private auspices.
But in so far as notice of December
7 by the President is concerned, he
feels that it should be observed as
a day of silence in remembrance of
a great infamy.”
Navy Department Shift
To Pentagon Building
Delayed, Knox Says
Secretary Declares Move
Needs Careful Study to
Prevent Inefficiency
The Navy Department will not be
moved to the Pentagon Building in
Arlington County by December 1,
Secretary Knox admitted yesterday.
His original announcement had in
dicated that date.
Unofficial estimates on the mov
ing date range from Christmas to
February 1. but Mr. Kncx said the
problem was being given a great deal
of thought.
Asked directly how the Navy
could be moved by December 1, Sec
retary Knox said: "We aren't going
to.
"It is a very intricate and difficult
question to handle and has to be
approached with a good deal of
thought and care so that when the
move is made it will not impair the
efficiency of the department in the
prosecution of the war which is, of
course, the first concern.”
Asked how' many people would be
sent to the Pentagon Building and
who would be brought to the old
Navy Building to fill it, Secretary
Knox said:
"I do not know the answer my
self. but we are going to work it out
to have the move the least injurious
1 to efficiency possible, because some
of the department will have to be
j left over here, obviously.”
Secretary Knox announced the j
move about two weeks ago. He said
it would enable the highest ranking
officials of the Army and Navy to
be together where conferences could
be held quickly and frequently.
In addition to other space in the
gigantic Pentagon Building, the
Navy will occupy the third floor.]
This will give Secretary Knox an ]
office just above that of Secretary j
of War Stimson and will put Ad- 1
miral Ernest J. King, commander in
chief of the fleet, immediately above '
Gen. George C. Marshall, Army
chief of staff.

Citizens' Group Opposes
Glover Park Housing Unit
The proposed temporary housing
| project to be located in the Glover
Park area was opposed unanimously
; by members of the Glover Park Citi
! zens' Association at a meeting last
night at the Stoddert School.
Henry F. Juenneman. president of
the association, said the project,
when and if completed, would be
similar to the Government’ housing
project located at Thirty-fifth and
Reservoir streets N.W.
According to a clause in the pro
1 posed contract, the buildings would
be torn down one year after the
war. However, members of the or
ganization believed the buildings
would be forced to stand empty for
some time thereafter.
John A. Baleinger. chairman of
the Civil Defense Unit, stressed the
need of eo-operation in support of
the air raid wardens of the Glover
Park district.
A ifcter requesting the installa
tion of a traffic light at Wisconsin,
avenue and Calvert street was sent
by Mrs. T. Fetzer. president of the
Parent-Teacher Association of the
Stoddert School.
Officers nominated for the new
year were: Mr. Juenneman. presi
dent; Mrs. Jessie B. Newton, first
vice president ; Jesse Coen and Dan
iel Campbell, second vice president;
M. J. Wright, secretary; Mr. Coen,
j treasurer, and Mr. Newton, ser
geant at arms.

GOP Leaders Seek
'Political Paragon'
For Martin's Post
Must Build Up Party
Without Favoring Any
Particular Candidate
By the Associated Press.
Republican leaders, sifting party
ranks for a new National Committee
chairman, were on the lookout today j
for something akin to a political
paragon who could:
1. Keep the various party factions
"pacified.”
2. Devote his time building up the
party organization.
3. Refrain from boosting the
cause of any individual for the
1944 presidential nomination.
Despite these admittedly stiff
qualifications. Republican chieftains
were sorting out a dozen or more
possibilities as candidates for the
job of Joseph W. Martin. jr„ who
is resigning to give all his time to
his duties as House minority leader.
The committee will meet Decem
ber 7 in St. Louis to select Mr. Mar
tin's successor.
Compromise Candidate Sought.
Although there has been consider
able maneuvering behind the scenes
by friends and foes of Wendell Will
kie. the 1940 presidential nominee,
party leader like Senate Minority
Leader McNary. were reported favor
ing a compromise selection who
would be acceptable not only to Mr.
Willkie but to all prominent party
members.
This view was echoed by Ralph
H. Cake. Oregon National Commit
teeman. who has been mentioned for
the chairmanship himself.
"They must avoid a scrap and I
think they will.” Mr. Cake said after
a talk with Senator McNary. "I'm
interested in seeing that they don’t
get into any.” j
Mr. Cake said the new chairman. I
who will serve until the next na
tional convention in 1944, must be
"identified w’ith no faction and must i
be acceptable to all.”
Senator McNary has been report- i
ed favoring John C. Townsend. jr„ I
former Senator from Delaware, as
a compromise choice. Friends of
Mr. Townsend, who managed the.
recent successful campaign resulting
in a gain of nine Republican seats
in the Senate, declared he would
accept the chairmanship if tendered.
Willkie Favors Bradley.
Mr. Willkie's friends here said he 1
favors J. Kenneth Bradley, national
committeeman for Connecticut, or
Sinclair Weeks, Massachusetts com- j
mitteeman, for the chairmanship,]
or some Westerner if either of these
is not available. They said he is
opposed to Werner W. Schroeder,
Illinois committeeman, on the con
tention that he was “too isolation
ist" before the war.
Associates of Thomas E. Dewey,
New York Governor-elect and a
runner-up to Mr. Willkie in the 1940
convention, reported he has no par
ticular choice for chairman. The
same i$ said in behalf of Senator
Taft of Ohio, another prominent
candidate for the presidential nom
ination two years ago.
The name of John D. M. Hamil
ton. party chairman from 1936-1940
and now' a practicing attorney in
Philadelphia, also has been men
tioned as a compromise. Others
who have been discussed include:
Alf M. Landon. 1936 presidential
standard bearer and former Gov
ernor of Kansas; National Commit
teemen Harrison E. Spangler, Iowa;
Walter S. Hallanan, West Virginia;
Robert P. Burroughs, New Hamp
shire, and Barak T, Mattingly, Mis
souri, and State Chairmen Ralph F.
Gates, Indiana, and Alexandria
Smith, New Jersey.
Unjustified Rent Increases
In Hagerstown Reported
By th* Associated Pres*.
HAGERSTOWN, Md., Nov. 21.—
George M. Bonman, Hagerstown
area rent director, said many com
plaints have been received concern
ing landlords unjustly increasing
rentals on newly furnished apart
ments.
“It seems that some of the land
lords." Mr. Bonman said, “after va
cancies have occurred in their un
furnished rentals, have gathered
together used furniture, in many
cases in extremely bad condition,
and changed the unit from an un
furnished apartment to a furnished
apartment."
These complaints have been in
vestigated, Mr. Bonman said, and
reduction of rents would be ordered
in some cases.
Mr. Bonman said he advised land
lords intending to switch their prop
erties from unfurnished to furnished
to give him an account of prob
able cast so a just maximum rent
could be determined.

D.C. Bank Clerks Busy
Preparing Christmas
Savings Checks
About 70,000 Members
Of Clubs to Receiv'*
$6,000,000 Cash
By EDWARD C. STONE.
Clerks in Washington banks are
swanmped with work right now
drawing about 70,000 Christmas Sav
ings Club checks which will be dis
tributed to members early in Decem
ber. it was reported today by bank
officials.
Getting the checks ready for the
annual distribution is the biggest
job of the year in connection with
the operation of these clubs. They
are prepared in advance and all
mailed at the same time so that the
club members will have equal oppor
tunities in their selection of Christ
mas goods.
About $6,000,000 will be distributed
by 22 banks in and around Wash
ington which have maintained
Christmas clubs during the past
year. As most banks in this vicinity
are planning to drop Christmas Sav
ings Clubs next year, the checks are
being drawn for the last time.
When the checks are mailed, a
letter will be included signed by
bank officials urging club members
to divert a large portion of their
savings in 1943 into War Savings
Bonds. Bankers have already per
sonally urged many of the Christmas
club members to adop(t such a plan.
Alexandria to Pay $130,000.
About $130,000 in checks will be
mailed to Christmas club members
shortly before the first of December,
according to Luther Dudley, vice
president of the Alexandria National
Bank.
Mr. Dudley said that 2.000 deposi
tors, each of whom paid $1 for the
service, will receive checks. For the
first time this year the right to
withdraw deposits during the year
was given members, but Mr. Dudley
said that only about 2 per cent
availed themselves of it.
Alexandria’s other banks, the Cit
izens National, First National and
Burke & Herbert Bank & Trust Co.,
do not carry Christmas club ac
counts.
Myers Membership Chairman.
Leroy J. Myers, Mutual Life, has
been appointed chairman of the
Membership Committee of the Dis
trict Life Underwriters’ Associa
tion, George A. Hatzes, president,
announced at the November lunch
eon at the Willard yesterday. In
spite of so many agents entering
military service, every effort is to
be made to keep the active mem
bership around 285. Mr. Hatzes said.
Special tribute was paid the late
John Dolph, a former president
of the association, and an active
figure in the insurance business in
the Capital for about 60 years.
P. L. Rogers, oldest living mem
ber of the association, who is con
nected with the Acacia Mutual Life
Insurance Co., was introduced and
given a rousing greeting.
The guest speaker. James E. Ruth
erford. executive vice president of
the national association, gave a most
interesting address on writing in
surance in wartime. James Gra
ham, Baltimore, also spoke.
Chicago Grain
By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Nov. 21.—Grain prices
advanced slightly today under the
leadership of rye, where short cov
ering and absence of selling pres
sure gave the market a strong un
dertone. Advances in the rye pit
amounted to nearly a cent.
Moderate commission house buy
ing, which found the market bare
of offerings, spurred gains of about
x* cent in wheat. Corn and oats
held about steady with the preced
ing session's close, interest in the
market being small. Soybeans were
inactive.
There was no news from Wash
ington of an important nature to
the grain markets, and traders were
still awaiting some definite indica
tions of changes in the flour ceiling
or of news on proposed subsidy plans.
The Commodiay Credit Corp. re
pored it had completed loans on
312.884.567 bushels of 1942 crop
wheat through November 14. This
compared with 279.083.706 bushels
through November 7. or an increase
of 33.800.861 bushels for the period
Loans averaged *1.14 a bushel for
a total of *353.716.404, the CCC said
On the same date last year loans
had been completed on 311,324,212
bushels.
Grainmen reported that industrial
demand for cash corn is steadily ab
sorbing stocks in local elevators.
Low-moisture grain, which does not
require as much time and labor in
handling as does wet corn, is most
popular. Traders pointed out that
open interest in corn futures con
tinues to increase.
Traders who are bullish on the
maize futures claimed that com
mercial needs for corn are so great
that any prolonged period of re
stricted country marketings could
affect the market sharply.
At 11 a.m.. wheat was %-% higher
than yesterday’s finish; December,
*1.25%; corn was up %-y2; De
cember, 83%. and rye showed gains
of %-l% cent* December, 63%.

Buying Washes Out
On Profit Cashing
In Stock Market
Dealings Are Sluggish
And List Lacks Direction
From Start of Trading
Bv VICTOR EUBANK,
associated Press Financial Writer.
NEW YORK, Nov. 21.—The buy
ing tide ebbed in parts of today-*
stock market as profits were cashed
on Friday’s bulge and commitment.^
lightened for week end protection
but gold mines and other post-war
favorites retained a degree of popu
larity.
The list lacked a definite direction
at the start. Dealings, generally,
were sluggish although sizable blocks
of low-priced issues, the majority
of which were about unchanged,
helped put the two-hour volume in
the neighborhood of 300.000 shares.
Closing prices were a trifle spotty
and narrow.
Dome Hits New High.
International Telephone, most ac
tive “peace" stock of the preceding
session, opened up a fraction on a
4.000-share trade at a new top for
the vear. Dome Mines again touched
a peak level for 1042,
Occasional gainers included New
York Central. Southern Pacific,
Great Northern, United States Steel,
General Motors. Goodrich. Mont
gomery Ward. International Harves
ter, Homestake. Alaska Juneau,
Douglas Aircraft. Standard Oil of
New Jersey, Consolidated Edison,
North American and Union Carbide.
On Dosing Side.
Under water af intervals were

can Telephone. Western Union. Ana

New York Cotton
By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. Nov. 21.—Cotton
futures charted a highly irregular
pattern in active trading today with
the near months showing strength
on aggressive trade price fixing
while the far months were under
pressure of increasing hedge selling.
The October position was a feature
in selling off 80 cents a bale at
the lows under hedging pressure
which found little support,
The month sold at a discount
compared with all other positions
i spot cotton which has been under
heavy demand to fill large Govern
ment textile orders.
Futures closed 5 cents a bale high
er to 75 cents lower.
