BECOME IDLE BY
PENDING BALLOT
Washington, Nov. 2 U.R
Upwards of 7,000,000 workers
about a fifth of the nation s men
ufacturing force may become
idle as result of a series of strike
votes now underway, a survey
revealed today.
A check of government labor
agencies showed that strike votes
will have been completed for
3,500,000 union members in the
40-day period ending Nov. 31.
If all of them follow up decisions
to strike, the effect on Industry
could also mean idleness for 3,
500,000 or more others.
Truman To Speak
That Is the labor picture fac
ing President Truman as he pre
pares for the labor-management
conference beginning next week.
Mr. Truman, who addresses the

Monday, hopes the conference
can devise some machinery for
industrial peace.
The president scheduled a
meeting today with President
John L. Lewis of the United
Mine Workers to discuss the com
ing conference.
The estimated 7,000,000 work
ers facing possible idleness in
clude both union and non-union
employes In plants where strike
votes have been taken or re
quested for the period from Oct.
22 to Nov. 30.

some of the 650 strike vote peti
tions a new record filed with
the national labor relations
board for the month ended last
night. It also covers votes al
ready taken In the plants of Gen

The government today began
preparing new withholding tax
schedules to reflect the lower in
dividual income tax rates vo'ed
by congress in the $5,920,000,000
tax reduction bill for 1946.
The senate completed legisla
tive action on the measure yes
terday and sent it to the White
House. President Truman is ex
pected to sign it within u few
days.
The bill gives business $3,136,
000,000 in relief in 1946 and will
save individual taxpayers an
estimated $2,644,000,000. Motor
ists will save an additional $140,
000,000 through repeal of the $5
auto use tax.
About 12,000,000 persons will
be removed from income tax
rolls as result of the cuts. The
treasury said new tax tables
showing the new rates will be
gin to go into the mails next
week.
They must be in the hands of
some 3,000,000 employers over
the nation in time to put them
into effect by Jan. 1.
