The Sun reports $210,314 collected from Cincinnati employers by the Wage-Hour office last year and warns that a hostile Congress or President could undermine enforcement of the hours and wages ceiling through funding or administrative appointments. The piece argues unions naturally enter politics and suggests avoiding that path risks erasing key New Deal protections.
The Times-Star applauds the Ohio Supreme Court ruling requiring public housing to pay full taxes, labeling it a victory for property rights over human rights. The Sun dissents, arguing the decision harms common Ohio families and ignores the broader costs of slum housing and crime.

It contrasts Bricker with Roosevelt’s swift defense law passage and lists GOP voting tallies on arms embargo repeal, lend lease, selective service, and extended training. Bricker is labeled a possible “gold Bricker” for campaign recklessness.
The SUN highlights two Cincinnati cases of management trouble with letters from Jerry Maxey UAW secretary and Al Whitehouse United Steelworkers protest to the WLB. It shows union leaders directing members to use grievance channels to keep war production moving despite unauthorized walkouts.
Wright Aeronautical Local 647 UAW CIO portrays restraint during wartime work stoppages and wages, denies union complicity in strikes, praises member service in war efforts, and criticizes editorials for undermining morale while court martial news circulates. It argues wage parity with peers and emphasizes sacrifice in defense of the country.
Dr. William M. Leiserson argues that unions and labor leaders have functioned mainly as a restraining influence on strikes rather than promoting them. He notes labor organization and leadership involvement in government war agencies fostered greater wartime production and cooperation.
The Sun reports that Al Whitehouse district director of USA-CIO was inadvertently omitted from last week’s list of members on The Sun's Policy Committee. The error is being corrected.
