CEILING ON WAGES OPPOSED BY CIO; GORE DESIRES IT Washington, Oct. 6.—The CIO ex pressed opposition today to federal control of wages shortly after Repre sentative Gore (D-Tenn.) advanced, as a substitute for the administra tion’s proposed price control legisla tion, a measure to prevent prices, wages, and most rents from rising above current levels. Gore is an influential member of the house banking committee which is considering the administration’s bill. The latter measure would mere ly grrant descretionary power for an administrator to place ceilings over prices and would not affect wages. Introducing his substitute, Gore said the administration’s bill was “weak-kneed, piece-meal legislation” which “will not stop inflation.” R. DERRILL SMITH Wholesale Grocer 910 MAIN ST. NEWBERRY, £.

Speaking on the same significant thence, Secretary of Labor Frances Perkins, told the 600 A. F. of L. convention delegates and a throng of visitors that “strikes which ham per the national effort have inevit, ably brought an avalanche of unfav orable comment to the labor move ment. “It is of extreme importance that the trade unions develop in the near future a pattern of self-impos ed discipline, a pattern of pubbe pol icy which the members really assent to. . . . “I feel sure that the trade unions of this country will participate in the thinking and in the actions necessary to keep our economy on an even keel. . . .” President Roosevelt’s message said that “the threat of Hitlerism is dir ected not only at labor ... It is aim. ed at all of us—every man, woman and child—who believes in freedom. “Our program of defense—our pro duction of ships, planes, gpins, tanks— must be all-out,” said the president in a message read by A. F. of L. Sec retary-treasurer George Meany.
