WLB Action Nears in Strike Continued from Page settlement of the controversy through arbitration under the board's auspices. Such a demand. it was indicated, would be heeded. although a message yesterday from James D. Ewing, acting assistant executive secretary of the WLB.

calling attention to "labor's pledge that there be no strikes during the war" and asking for "the prompt resumption of newspaper deliveries," was ignored. Leaders of the union pointed out that it is not affiliated with either the A. F. L. or C.

I. which made the no-strike pledge and that hence the pledge was not binding on it. Separate meetings of the union and the Publishers Association were held yesterday and each adjourned to await the next move from Washington. The strike was called after the union and the publishers failed to agree on terms of a new contract to replace the three-year agreement which expired June 30 and was extended by mutual consent to Dec. 11.

The dispute was submitted to arbitration with Dean George W. Matheson of St. John's University Law School of Brook- lyn as impartial chairman. $3 Increase Rejected The arbitration award granted a pay increase of $3 a week pay over the old scales. of $8.31 for seven hours of day work and one week's vacation with pay.

The union had asked a 15 percent increase, or about $6.60 a week. In addition, it objected to the arbitrators' allowing the publishers to consolidate routes and dismiss men, describing that as a means of breaking the union by making every driver's job insecure. The publishers had atgued they needed that right because of the uncertainties of the war situation. The agreement under which the arbitration award was handed up permitted either side to accept or reject. The Publishers Association accepted the award but the union rejected it.

Following receipt of the message from Ewing, Simons said: "We're gonna stick to our guns." Louis Waldman, the union's attorney, said in his opinion the telegram merely urged the union to continue trying to negotiate a settlement. The Publishers Association, calling on the drivers to return to work "to clear the way for a settlement," said in a statement last night: "The members of the Publishers Association of New York City, are fully conscious of their obligation to the public, particularly in the midst of war when every bit of news from the fighting fronts so vitally affects us all. "The members of the Publishers Association consider, therefore, that they owe an explanation to the millions of newspaper readers in the metropolitan area who were unable to purchase their newspapers as usual today. Struck Without Warning "All member newspapers, both in the morning and evening field, were published as usual, but a strike called without warning by the Newspaper and Mail Deliverers Union prevented the newspapers from reaching the stands." "The Newspaper and Mail Deliverers Union is an independent organization affiliated with neither American Federation of Labor nor Congress of Industrial Organizations and it has a membership of about 3.000. About 2.000 of these members are employed by the publishers.

"Following the expiration of a three-year contract between the publishers and the union last June 30 the matter was submitted to arbitration and a majority of the board of arbitration on Sept. 11 granted these main points in a new contract: "The union won a $3 A week increase and a week's vacation for its members. Papers Accepted Findings "The publishers' right to determine the number of men to be employed and the arrangement of the number of routes, carriers or deliveries was upheld, but the union was given authority to take the issue to arbitration if any changes resulted in loss of employment. publishers accepted the 1 findings of the arbitration board. The union rejected them.

Recently at the request of the publishers the United States Conciliation Service of the Department of Labor intervened. But a meeting arranged by the Conciliation Service scheduled for today (Monday) at 2:30 p.m. to resume negotiations the union voted a strike yesterday (Sunday) and called it last night. cessation of deliveries resulted. "Consequently, James D.

Ewing, acting assistant executive secretary of the National War Labor Board, sent this telegram to the union: 'The National War Labor Board has been advised that the deliveries of newspapers in New York and vicinity has been interrupted by a result of a strike by the members of the Newspaper a 11 Deliverers Union. 'This work stoppage is in violation of labor's pledge that there be no strikes during the war and that all disputes shall be settled by peaceful means. "'It is important in the public interest that this strike be settled promptly and that all matters in dispute between the union and the Publishers Association of New York be settled in an orderly manner in accordance with the procedures established by your Government for that purpose. the responsible leader of your union will you please convey this message to the workers involved and BROOKLYN BROOKLYN EAGLE, TUESDAY, DEC. 11 1 FINANCIAL Taxes to Take of Income Levies Light Compared With Britain, Canada Washington, Dec.

WAR BONDS AND SAVINGS STAMPS The stock market gained irregularly today in rather quiet dealings, with special issues attracting the best support. Low- -priced shares appeared on the tape in large blocks in opening dealings and some issues displayed considerable activity throughout. Most of the pivotals were less actively traded in, although a number showed improvement in late dealings over opening prives. Steels were firmer, with fractional gains, but motors tended to ease finally, after ruling fairly steady. Moving picture shares came in for demand, with both Loew's and Warner Bros, selling at new 1942 highs.

The later was extremely active after opening with a share block. United Drug was another active stock. Issues which made new 1942 highs on gains of fractions to a point or more included Columbian Carbon, Eaton, Johns-Manville, Bohn Aluminum and Industrial Rayon. Individual rails developed a firmer tone but did little on the upside as a group. American Smelting was up over a point, while Patino slumped on news of a strike at the mines.

Utilities, with exception of Public Service 6 preferred and United Gas preferred, both down a point or more, did little. Bond Prices Steadier Trading in listed corporate bonds was quiet today, but comparatively wide price swings marked a few issues. Included were Boston and Maine 5s of 1955, which advanced four points and Hoe Company of 1944, which gained nearly two points. On the other hand, Childs Company 5s of 1943 slipped nearly three points. Among railroad ligations, such liens as New Haven 4s and Great Northern moved up about a point.

Transactions in medium and cheaper quality railroad liens however was at low ebb much of the session, although these issues displayed a steadier tone in late dealings. Some of the issues of defaulted lines also showed a better tone. Australian issues reflected continued demand and the inactive City of Sydney were firmer, but others were dull. U. S.

Treasury issues continued about unchanged. Auto Insurance Valid in Pooling Washington, Dec. 15-Autoists may now share their cars without fear of invalidating their insurance policies. More than 200 companies, which write almost all automobile liability insurance in the U. S.

have informed OPA Administrator Leon Henderson that policyholders participating in car-sharing plans will be protected. The Price Administrator had previously pointed out to the companies that while car-sharing had proved one of the most effective means of saving car mileage, organization of car clubs could achieve even greater success except for the existing fear that financial arrangements involved might jeopardize insurance coverage on automobiles. The insurance companies promptly acted to dispel motorists' fears. Walter 38.
