Claims for Back Travel Pay *
Pass % Billion; Farm Chiefs
Call for Protective Tariff l
PORTAL TO PORTAL: l
Claims Mount
" As union claims against industry
for back pay for walking to the
job or preparing for work on com
pany property mounted to over half
a billion, tax experts opined that
Unéle Sam may have to bear the
burden of the settlements if the
firms are permitted to obtain tax
credits for such disbursements.
Although John L. Lewis first
pointed up the question of so-called
“portal to portal’’ pay for miners
traveling to the coal faces under
ground, the principle was given in
dustry-wide implications with the
Supreme court’s decision upholding
such compensation retroactive to
1938 for employces of the Mount
Clemens, Mich., Pottery company.
The Supreme court verdict was
followed by a rush of the major
CIO unions for such retroactive
back pay, with the Urited Farm
Equipment and Metal Workers su
ing International Harvester for 100
million dollars. Since employees
have been paid for a 40 hour week,
the unions are asking for overtime
pay plus damages.
Firms may be able to charge off
back payments to Uncle Sam under
provisions of the income tax law
permitting companies to carry back
net operating losses into the two pre
ceding years and also apply such
losses in two succeeding years.
Meanwhile, the U. S. Chamber
of Commerce polled its member
ship on congressional amendment
of the fair labor standards act of
1938 under which portal to portal
pay- has been based. The chamber
“proposed (1) observance of custom,
practice or agreement in different
localities' or industries as to work
ing rules; (2) provision for relief
for unwitting violation of the law,
and (3) permission of companies
and unions to make compromise
settlements.

TARIFF:
Seek Protection
Historically for free trade, the
deep soqth reversed its position in
petitioning President Truman and
Federal Trade commission for a
strong protective tariff for Ameri
can agriculture.
Signed in behalf of the elect
ed commissioners of agriculture
of Alabhama, Arkansas, Florida,
Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana,
Mississippi, South Carolina,
North Carolina, Texas, Tennes
see and Virginia, the petition
reached Mr. Truman as the gov
ernment prepared for renegoti
ation of existing rates in recip
rocal trade treaties drawn
under the act of 1934 and sub
sequent extensions.

U. S. HEALTH:
Shows Improvement
After getting off to a bad start
in the early months of the year, the
health record among life insurance
policyholders in the Uniied States
was excellemt for the year 1946 as
a whole,
At the start of the year, there was
a rise in the death rate among
policyholders, but by the second
_guarter this trend was reversed and
a mrk_g_d improvement was shown.
e v
veloped nations could pay for
American manufactured goods |
only with agricultural products, the
commissioners warned against sub
jecting U. S. farmers to a flood of
foreign commodities and reducing
their living standards to a subsist
ence level. Calling for a trade pro
gram fitted into the American
economy, the commissioners advo
cated the exchange of such export
able products as wheat, lard and
cotton for rubber, coffee, tea and
bananas. I
Wisely, the commissioners’ pe- |
tition was' national rather than |
sectional in its nature. Although !
professing concern for the future ’
of cotton in competition with for- [
eign rayon, nylon and other ar- l
tificial fibers made in reconvert !
ed armament plants, the com
missioners also warned that a
further lowering of tariff rates
would adversely affect cattle,
oleomargarine, butter, cheese,
fish, eggs, grains, potatoes, pea {
' nuts and vegetables.
Dramatically pointing up the es
; sect of cheap foreign competition on
American products, the commission
ers declared that whereas white and
sweet potato starches had been used
for the adhesives on the back of
stamps and the flaps of envelopes,
the adhesive on the stamp bearing
] the petition was made of imported
cassava roots.

|ITALY:
| Postwar Troubles
Despite substantial assistance
| from the U. S., Italy has been tread
'| ing a rocky road to postwar re
| covery.
\ Italy’s troubles are not all econom
ic, although shortages of foodstuffs
| and widespread unemployment re
| sulting from industrial stagnation
| have contributed to the political tur
| moil. The left and the right are pull
| ing against themselves for political
advantage and a rising wave of anti
| clerical propaganda threatens the
| traditional spiritual unity of the peo
| ple.
On the economic front, Italy is
short of wheat, and spaghetti and
macaroni rations have been cut in
half. Pig iron production is down to
28 per cent of the prewar level; tex
tile fabrics, 56 per cent; chemicals,
66 per cent; mechanical goods, 76
per cent; cotton thread, 88 per cent.
Imports are almost three times ex
ports.
| Helping Hand -
Since Uncle Sam has dealt gen
erously with Italy, it is looking con
| fidently for more assistance from
' Jithe U.. S. Thus far, the U; S. has
| agreed to compensate Italy for
| supporting American invasion troops
| and furnishing war supplies, and
| has extended credits for purchase
| of overseas surplus. In addition,
Italy has profited from: U. S. contri
| butions to UNRRA and the interna
| tional bank.
Despite the difficulties present
ed by shortages of both foodstuffs
and industrial materials, both the
left and right wings have made
| political capital of unrest. Latest ex
ample was the food riots engineered
| by Communists in southern Italy.
As a result of the political bickering,
| there has been a resurgence of Fas
cist sentiment, with Mussolini’s for
mer followers growing increasingly
bolder.
Leftists also nave backed the at
tacks on pope and church, with the
intention of weakening respect for
the Catholic doctrine of authority,
family and property. However, the
rightist dominated government has
been quick to fight abusive criti
cism of the clergy. An gg_itor
charged with publishing phorno
graphic cartoons of a friar and un
clad woman was sentenced to two
years in jail.

FOREIGN AFFAIRS: l
Red Tape . :
The sullen Russians continued to |
keep overseas relations with U, S. I
military personnel on strictly ‘a’ for
mal basis as illustrated in their or- |
der to an American naval vessel to |
clear out of Dairen, Manchuria,
within the prescribed 48 hours.
The LC-3 1090 entered Dairen as
a diplomatic courier ship to bear
supplies and mail to the U .S. con
sul. Legally, the vessel was per
niitted to remain only 48 hours, and
the Russ ordered the Americans to
leave or accept the consequences
when it appeared they might be de- {
layed over efforts to obtain landing
clearance for a Standard Vacuum
Oil company employee, a newspa
per correspondent and a magazine
photographer.
Russian authorities in control of!
Dairen had given the U. S. consul
the run-around in his attempts to
scecure permission for the three
to land. However, their action
sterumed from a fear to grant the
¢'rarance without prior approval
icom their masters in Moscow rath
er than personal feeling.
QUAKE:
flocks Japan
As hundreds of thousands of Jap
anese made homeless by earthquake
and tidal wave shivered in the win
try air, the U. S. rushed relief to the
distressed areas.
Having become used to the shock
and terror of wartime B-29 raids,
the Japanese accepted the catastro
phe with resignation, calmly count
ing their dead and injured in the
thousands and their property dam
age in the millions. No less than 24
of the 47 prefectures felt the trem
ors, with the coastal regions of
southern Honshu, Shikoku and Awaji
islands swept by seven foot walls of
water rushing in {from the sea.
All of the horror and distress was
portrayed by the Tokyo newspaper
Asahi in an eyewitness report from
Shikoku: First, startled pcople felt
the ground shaking beneath them,
then they could hear a great roaring
- sound. Stumbling from their quak
ing houses, they rushed for high
ground, but many were overtaken
by a surging wall of water and their
~screams rent the air., Some people
- saw a little girl with a doll crying,
' ‘‘Save me, gentle Buddha,”” but
when they returned to search for rel
atives the tearful child was miss
ing and all they could find was the
doli, wedged between planics on the
beach.
INDO-CHINA :
Imperial Headache
France was the latest European
power to suffer an imperial head
ache, with Indo-Chinese natives bat
tling French forces for extension of
self-government,
Under a compromise effected last
March, France granted self-rule to
several provinces but retained con
trol over the rest of the country as
a lever for continued dominance.
Availing themselves of a well-oiled
machine developed under Japanese
auspices during the wartime occu
pation, the native leaders of the Viet
Nam (Independence party) have
pressed for an extension of their
self-rule.
Not yet able to grant all of French
Indo-China independence and be as
sured of the protection of its com
mercial interests in the rich Far
Eastern country, France has been
forced to use troops to retain a grip
~ in the absence of an agreeable com
} promise. .
