LABOR FACTIONS MAY JOIN HANDS Murray Suggests CIO, AFL Concentrate on Combined Victory Committee. Pittsburgh, Aug. 8 (U9 Amalgamation of the American Federation of Labor and the' Congress of Industrial Organizations was seen today, stemming from CIO' President Philip Murray's off er to recommence negotiations with the i Competent labor observers, pointed out that some basis for labor unity must have developed behind, the scenes for Murray not only to make his offer but to name a committee- to treat a of the AFL. William president of the AFL, was not immediately available for comment, but there was no doUDt tnat Murray a oner would be accented at once. The AFL has maintained a committee for several years authorized to deal with the CIO on the ques--tion of labor unity.

Conspicuously i omitted from sMurray's plans was jJohn L. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers, the CIO's largest affiliate, which hasn't paid its per capita dues in months, and, con- sequently is not in good standing. Lewis had been chairman of the CIO's previous peace committee. By naming a new committee, Murray rubbed him out of the picture. But there have been developments particularly the organizing activities of District 50, United Mine Workers, in fields not connected with coal mining, such as dairy farming suggesting that Lewis is planning to establish a national labor federation "in opposition to both the" AFL and CIO.

This may. have hastened Murray's decision. Lewis recently ousted him as a vice-president of the United Mine Workers. Suggests Joint Committee. Murray made his proposal in a letter to Green.

Tomorrow they will both, be in Chicago Murray to address the convention of the United Automobile, 'Aircraft, and Agricultural Implement- Workers. Green to attend a meeting of the AFL executive council. Pending the culmination of unity negotiations, Murray suggested to Green that establish a -joint committee which, with the aid of an impartial arbitrator, would settle all jurisdictional disputes this being to prevent interference with war production such as occurred at jPon-tiac, last week when Jsuch a dispute between rival gr6cery clerk unions closed two war plants. I Murray's proposal of unity negotiations seemed added to his letter casually, as an after-thought, -suggesting further that much preliminary spade work, has been done. He recalled that the AFL and CIO had set up a joint labor i victory committee to; meet with President Roosevelt to deal with labor's part in the war effort.

He told Green he thought' the work of this committee should be Theft he reminded Green that the two organizations had with government, and manage-' ment to sprevent work stoppages whereby the CIO and AFL agreed to submit all industrial disputes to the War Labor Board. "The CIO assumed that, this commitment included jurisdictional problems, between affiliates' of the AFL and i affiliates of the CIO," he perhaps in reference to ljast week's work stoppage in Pontiag. "We have, beenJ deeply cbncirned about the stoppages which have been caused certain affiliates 4 of the AFL because of some jur- isdictional Combined Labor Victory. He then made his proposal of i a joint committee and an irnpar-! tial. arbitrator! to deal with juris-i dictional disputes.

i his letter said: I "The problem of organic unity has also beenj under discussion by our respective organizations. The CIO has feloj that we should, not permit this problem to affect or interfere witjji. the growing unity of auction between organizations in regard to the war effort. "Iti is for this reason that we suggested that our energy be concentrated on the of the combined labor victory committee. With the usefulness and need of that committee having been established, I believe that we can initiate discussions regarding, possible establishment of organic unity between our organ-; izations." Heathen informed Green that he had appointed a committee composed of himself as chairman, R.

J. Thomas, -president of the United Automobile, Aircraft and Agricultural Implement Workers and Julius Emspak, secretary of the United Electrical, Radio, and Machine Workers, to treat with "the AFL's standing peace com-. mittee.

Billings, Mont, Aug. 3 (IP) Fast speaking news commentators and announcers are changing the speaking vocabulary -f many children due to the fact th ear becomes insensitive to differences in consonant sounds after listening. to the radio for hours at a time. Miss Dorothy Parizek, a Billings, school teacher, found this so frue among her students' she began a study Of the subject.

Miss Parizek said words that are similar in sound and appearance lead to' extraordinary confusion among children. She gave as an example: "he to indoors the check." "Radio has become such, a com- non means of entertainment, chil dren find little time for reading for pleasure," Miss Parizek said, "and as a result their v-cabularies are limited and often ir accurate." Children today have no visual impression and imperfect hearing conception of words, she said. Some of the common mistakes her students made were: 'he was fateful to his promise" and "the clamorous' debutante." The school teacher said some of the better radio personalities live up to their responsibility of supplying the non-reader with correct speech patterns, but many radio idols let down their devotees who believe high paid entertainers couldn't possibly be wrong by using incorrect pronunciation of words. Miss Parizek said she' believed a slow and reasonable change in common word usage ras desirable, but the havoc dpne by careless forms of entertainment was quite another thing, GOES 26,000 MILES -TO ICELAND FROM NORWAY Reykjavik, Aug. 3 0P A Norwegian naval air force pilot has arrived in Iceland from Norway, only 700 miles away, after a trip of more than 26,000 miles.
