Davis of the War Labor Board charged tonight that Sewell Avery, chair man of the board of Montgomery Ward at .Co., was drawing "a veil over the company's refusal to increase its substandard wages by deliberately repeating all of his familiar misstatements re garding maintenance of member ship." Davis made the charge in a statement as the WLB moved to ward action Monday to refer the company's non-compliance with WLB directives in four Detroit stores and in six other cities to the Office of Economic Stabili zation for sanctions or seizure of the properties. The Davis statement was prompted by an advertisement placed by Avery in newspapers in Detroit where a strike is in progress at the four stores. "Mr. Avery has published in newspaper advertisements," Davis said, "a statement to his employes in which he gives the impression that maintenance of membership is the only issue in volved in the Detroit strike. No where does he mention the fact that for over six months the com pany has not put into effect the wage adjustments directed by the WLB. 'These adjustments would In crease the minimum basic salary rate in the Detroit stores to stand for a 44-hour week, or 46 cents an hour with diminishing increases" to those above the minimum."
