CIO President Philip Murray, whose organization regarded President Rosevelt as labors “noblest friend,” stated: “America is fortunate to have a worthy sucessor to our late President, a man long and close- ly assveciated with his splendid policies on behalf of our coun- try and all humanity.

Luhrsen, who is retiring: secretary of the Railway Labor Executives As- sociation to become a member of the Railroad Retirement Board on the nomination of President Roosevelt, said: “To President Truman, who will carry on where President Roosevelt left off, the Railway Labor Executives As- sociation gives him the assur- ance of its wholehearted, un- daunted and loyal support and the willingness to share with him the carrying on of the heavy bur- dens and complex tasks which are still ahead of us for final so- lution.” - BACKED BY AFL AND CIO As a Senator, which post he held until his inauguration as Vice-President on January 20, President Truman almost always voted in accord with the ex- pressed views of organized la_ bor. As chairman of the Sen- ate’s Defence Investigating: Committee, he also had the sup- port of the labor movement. At last year’s Democratic party convention, where President Truman was nominated as vice- presidential candidate, he had the suport of both the AFL and CLO, the latter regarding him as the best alternative to the then Vice- President and present Secretary of Commerce Henry A. Wallace. as ~~ at fhagreees P. AND ITS * EAST END PRINTERS 2303 E. Hastings A.

Win First Guaranteed Wage Clause NEW YORK—By securing its first collective bargaining con- tract with the City of New York and by including in that contract a proyision for a guaranteed an- nual wage, the State, County and Municipal Workers (CIO) this week established two important precedents. The agreement, which also provides for substan- tial wage increases for several classifications of municipal em- ployees, is expected to have rep- ereussions throughout the country since many cities have heretofore argued that law prevented them from entering into contractual re- lations with unions. Announcing the new agree- ment, SCMW president Abram Flaxer pointed out it is directly in line with the policy set forth by national CIlO ,which seeks to safeguard workers against wage cuts while guaranteeing contin- uous employment at higher rates. The agreement covers automo- bile mechanics, wheelrights, oil- ers, stokers and water tenders, and is expected to be extended to blacksmiths, sheet metal work- ers, carriage painters, harness makers, upholsterers and many other classifications.
