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.”

Seattle, Oct. 7.—President Roose

time has come when federal machin

“must be used” by labor and manage

to a strike or lockout.”
In the interests of national de
fense, the president said that the es
tablishment of peace between labor
organizations would be a patriotic
step toward the creation of true
national unity.
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. . . .”

that “the threat of Hitlerism is dir

and child—who believes in freedom.
