PRIORITY FOR
MATERIAL EYED
By TOM HEEDY
WASHINGTON, Aug. 18 (Pi
Proposals lo give schools and
(arms priorities for surplus
war materials today hoisted a
high barrier in the house to
passage of one of the adminis
tration's key postwar plans.
Chairman Manasco D-Ala.
ns floor manager for the admin
istration of the bill creating a
surplus property disposal agen
cy, strove for approval by night
fall. But he conceded that the
pending amendments are of
more than ordinary interest.
fiep. Tarver (D-Ga.) offered
the plan to require that the
surplus property administrator
channel suitable goods to voca
tional and trade schools, with
out charge.
An amendment to permit
leasing of equipment to .soil
conservation districts was pro
posed by Rep. Poage (D-Tex.)
Manasco served notice his
forces would fight any such
fundamental changes.
To me; that's making a gift
of surplus war property," he
declared. ."It's our duty to see
that the nation gets every pos
sible dollar out of this mate
rial." At the same time the recon
version measure, as adopted by
the senate, ran into fresh crit
icism in the house where it
still is in the committee stage.
Kep. Celler (D-N.Y.) led a bi
partisan bloc in a movement to
obtain unemployment compen
sation benefits up to S35 a week
for war veterans and 325 for
civilians for 52 weeks over a
two-year period. The senate bill
leaves this up to the state to
determine . individually.
ACM HEM. ESTATE
USIKESS PREDICTED
Building and real estate will
be extremely active when peace
comes, it was predicted in a
talk to the Kiwanis club Thurs
day by Ed Chilcote, veteran
Klamath real estate man. He
said he could foresee no defla
tion in real estate values, such
as has been prophesied in some
quarters. '
Chilcote . also stated that
money -will be plentiful and
cheap for building and real
estate investments. There are
large funds ready to go to work
the moment the unsettled condi
tions of war-time are ended.
The real estate man spoke
disapprovingly of OPA rent con
trol, stating that local or vol
untary control would be more
fair to all concerned. A mod
erate increase in returns to
property owners, along with thr
general increase in wages, pro
fits, etc., is. not out of line, he
said.

ties Commissioner George H.

Battle Over Vet, Union
Seniority Out In Open
By GARETH MUCHMORE
NEW YORK, Aug. 18 rP) A
developing conflict between
union seniority and veterans'
preference in the rehiring of ex
servicemen was out in the open
today after a debate between a
selective service official and a
union representative. ,
Employers were left in the
middle, still apparently caught
in the crossfire of union versus
selective service interpretations
of the selective service law.
Col. Paul H. Griffith, chief
of the veterans' personnel di
vision of selective service, con
tended in a discussion yesterday
before the national industrial
conference board .that a return
ing veteran' "is entitled to his
old job back even though he
displaces a man with greater
seniority.
Victor G. Reuther, assistant
director of the war policy di
vision of the United Auto Work
ers (CIO), told the private re
search organization, made up
chiefly of emoloyers in industry;
that such a policy seemed
"foreign to the intent" of the
act, and it would "be a big mis
take to get jobs tor veterans by
taking them away from some
one else.
Reuther asserted the inter
pretation of the act would create
dissension pitting veterans
against civilians, and would give
veterans superseniority.
Griffith declared he was for
superseniority for veterans.
Reuther contended that the
law provided only for "like
seniority" that is, that military
service should be added to work
seniority, and that a veteran
would contend for jobs on an
aggregate seniority basis. -
Griffith cited the law saying
a man is entitled to nis Job back
it: 1 we reports within 40 days:
2 His discharge was honorable:
3 He is qualified to do the work;
4 The employer's circumstances
are not changed radically.
Those conditions met, Griffith
said, a "returning veteran gets
his job even if this means dis
charging a non-veteran with
more seniority."
Bowling Alley Sets

Reopening Saturday night,
August 10, at 6 o'clock, is the
Servicemen's bowling alley at

The alley is sponsored by the

Numerous applications of
girls interested in obtaining of
fice jobs have been listed by
the chamber of commerce.

of servicemen, and many of
them are highly trained in spe
cial office technique.
Although the chamber of
commerce does not conduct a
regular employment service, it

fice work as a service to its

ty, stated Charles L. Stark,
