AFL Federal Workers Suggest 30-Hour Postwar Work Week A 30-hour Government work week, effective with V-J Day, to insure more jobs in the Federal service for returning servicemen, was proposed yesterday by the Government Employes’ Council of the American Federation of Labor. Representing 19 affiliated unions with a reported membership of \ 300,000 Federal employes, the coun-! cil advocated a ‘'gradual” reduction1 in the Government workweek until the 30-hour level was reached. Before the 30-hour limit is reached, the present workweek could be cut to 40 hours whenever the war effort would allow such a move, the council suggested. If jobs are to be provided for every one in the postwar period,1 the Government must blaze the trail, the council stated . in sug-; gesting its plan. Under the pro-! posal two hours would be taken off each present eight-hour day. No reduction in present basic pay rates is proposed. For a limited time after V-J Day, it was conceded, there may be a few agencies needing to carry on with a 44 or 48-hour wartime week, including some War and Navy bu reaus. The proposal is in line with AFL policy during the depression days of the 1930s for a shorter workweek to spread out the work. In case it is found that agencies do not have the power to shorten the workweek, the council suggested legislation to this effect be enacted by Congress. Committee to Survey Restaurant Equipment The Hotel Advisory Committee to the food inspection division of the Health Department will survey man ufacturers of kitchen and dining * room equipment on developments expected after the war to aid sani tation, the department announced yesterday.

Mer rick, manager, Roger Smith: Daniel Watley, manager, Fairfax Hotel; S. W. Keesee, general manager, New Colonial Hotel, and Arthur J. Har nett. executive secretary, Washing ton Hotel Association. Health Officer George C. Ruhland said he was “highly pleased” with* the progress made in food sanitation and the co-operation being received from the industries involved.

"Such matters as the continua tion of war financing, the tax en forcement drive, revenue legislation, and many other problems call for prompt decisions. My successor should be given the opportunity to make these decisions, since it will become his duty to carry them out. "These considerations are given added weight by the possibility of a recess of the Senate, which would delay Judge Vinson’s confirmation. “Accordingly, I urge that you ap point my successor at your earliest convenience, and make my resigna tion effective upon his appointment and qualification.” The President's reply, dated today, follows: “I have given careful considera tion to your letter of July 13 urging that I send to the Senate imme diately the nomination of Judge Vinson as Secretary of the Treas ury. “I am inclined to agree with you' that for the reasons you mentioned it would be preferable to take thus action now instead of waiting for; my return from Europe. “I appreciate very much the fine spirit and keen sense you have ap proached this matter.’’ ANNOUNCING *** 'SSS w I HEARING "Full Color" NOW NEW STYLE .. .
