He was defeated by 243,693 votes out of a total vote of 1,200,066. Not a bad idea for Senators and Congressmen to think shout this year when they are completely surrounded by lob byists. TOBIN BACKS NEW SOCIAL SECURITY BILL (Continued From Page 1) greater numbers of the classes enttled to benefits, and would for, tife first time establish benefits for the disabled husband or wid ower of a woman primary bene-; ficiary. It would also reduce the' age of women beneficiaries from 66 to 60. Tobin added that the present' Social Security law should be ex-1 tended to include a provision for | workers who are forced by ill- j ness and disability to be away from gainful work. “On an average day about 4,- j 000,000 persons of working age are suffering from some type of disability. Disability is one of the major causes of dependency,” the Secretary said. He asked that especial consideration be given to the provision in H.R. 2893 which j would establish insurance bene j fits, including maternity benefits, related as are retirement benefits to wages, for incapacitated work ers and their dependents on both a temporary and continuing ba sis, after suitable waiting pe riods. MRS. ALEXANDER GETS HIGH POST (Continued From Page 1) and when you get a large group of women sold on an idea, you are assured of action. Of course you know that my objective is to j have every member Label Con 1 scious. I hope to visit every aux iliary under my supervision. With the help and co-operation of all these groups we should be able to put the Union Label on all merchandise in stores. Too, we plan a lot of social activities, in viting the men. This certainly promotes friendliness among the families of the Union members. “With the co-operation of tha eight auxiliaries, Mrs. Alexander will have the incentive to drive forward in her effort to prove to the Union members that an Aux iliary is an asset and not a lia bility to Labor.” GREATER CHARLOTTE GROUP DRAFTS VOGLER (Continued From Page I) for support of the Greater Char lottte committee, said that “it is composed of a large group of businessmen—has no axe to grind and no purpose in view other than to assist the candidates, yrho, we have determined, are Identified with no special-interest group and who have made no pre-election promises to any faction.” The committee will make no choice as to the candidates for mayor, Mr. Vogler stated, adding that “We believe that the council aspirants we are backing will be able to work harmoniously with either of the prospective mayors.” The announcement of Mr. Vog ler’s selection as chairman and opening of headquarters was de layed, awaiting the return/ of Mr. Vogler from Raleigh, f MILWAUKEE MILLIONAIRE TO DEVOTE LIFE TO LABOR A multi-millionaire Milwaukee an—Joseph E. Uihlein, 78—cap tured the nation’s headlines by announcing that he intends to spend the remaining years of his life organising white collar work ers into unions. Uihlein announced, that a most aristocratic names. A Uih lein founded the SchUts Brewery Co., and his descendants are the owners of it now. They consti tut# one of the wealthiest fami lies in the midwest. For yean, Joseph E. Uihlein headed the brewery# but he re tired and now it’s managed by two brothers. Joseph has clashed with them frequently on policies. He and his children are still major stockholders in the brew ery. Uihlein announced, that a year ago he tried to join the Brewery Workers’ Union, but he was turned down because the union’s constitution requires that members must be employed at the craft. Last week, he stirred up a row with his brothers at the brewery when he .proposed that the Schlits firm turn 25 cents for every barrel of beer sold into a welfare fund for the firm’s 4, 000 employees. That would amount to about a million dollars on the basis of last year’s sales — or about one-sixteenth of the com pany’s profits.
