PROTECTION
By CHARLES V. STANTON '
Is the rank and file of labor being LED or MISLED in
the current wave of contagious disputes plaguing the coun
try? Are the leaders who promote these uprisings seriously
concerned in improving the condition of the worker or are
they striving for political prestige and powpr? If they gain
political control, which seems
power be used to promote welfare of theicountry as a whole,
or to destroy our system of free enterprise?
These' are questions, we
thought. ' ,
We should be concerned with
should determine whether we
domic of only semi-related labor disorders, or are victims
of a deliberate uncj premeditated radical plot directed at the
overthrow of our existing system of government through
creation of confusion and chaos until, in our frantic desire
for peace, we suriender authority to the radical minority,
Labor is organized for the
worker, improving his working conditions, raising his liv
ing1 standards, ' and preventing
capitalism.
There is no question but
the part of management, in
tion of the worker for his own protection. Man's inhumanity
to man was never demonstrated more forcibly than in the
sweat shops, the child labor factories, the long hours and
low pay which marked industrial and business conditions
of a few years ago. We would be gullible indeed if we did
not believe that such conditions would return were it not for
the protection afforded by organized labor. But labor is in
the saddle today and as long as it continues in its strength,
there is little danger of a return to general exploitation.
It is the responsibility of labor leaders to strive for im
provement in the working and living standards, of the labor
ing man. But what is the condition today?
Our industrial machinery could be running at utmost ca
pacity, furnishing jobs for everyone who wanted to work,
producing prosperity and high standards of living. Instead,
continued labor strife has slowed production to a walk and
kept reconversion under slow bell. Workers have lost mil
lions of dollars through enforced idleness during periods of
strike millions that will require many months to replace
even though wage increases tire obtained. Millions more are
being lost through effects of current disputes upon all clas
sifications of industry and business. Workers had accumu
lated backlogs of savings through investment in war bonds.
Many have been forced to draw on these savings to carry
them through strike periods. Thus there has been lost money
which would have prolonged prosperity by maintaining pro
duction for a greater period of time.
There would be less cause for criticism had the strikes
been necessary to gain equitable concessions for the workers,
but-such was not the case. We have had few strikes which
could not have been averted by more prolonged negotiations.
In our recent lumber strike, for instance, one of the factors
delaying settlement was rivalry between two of the labor
leaders. The automobile strike had as an issue rivalry be
tween two of the outstanding chieftains. It is plainly obvi
ous that the coal strike involves the political prestige of John
L. Lewis to ah equal if not greater degree than the welfare
of the miners.
Are the workers to be made pawns in the game of politics
played by their leaders?
The place of labor in politics is rationalized by its leaders
on the grounds that political control is a necessary part of
protection. But the trend of today's movement is towards
nationalization of industry and business, and history proves
that socialization centralization of power, public ownership
and regimentation is labor's greatest enemy. Subject to
federal control, labor quickly would lose autonomy and would
be reduced to virtual serfdom.
history.
Where, then, is labor being
destruction, carrying with it
free government? Is it being

Proposed OPA Changes
Criticized by Bowles
WASHINGTON, May 2H (!)
Chester Bowles, economic stabi
lization director, said yesterday
that changes in OI'A legislation
by the Senate Hanking Commit
tee were "even worse than the
bill passed by the House."
Bowles said the House measure
trimming and extending OI'A
powers "would have made the
enntml of inflation flatly impos
sible." Now, lie declared in a
statement, the Senate commit
tee, "has been quietly and effec
tively cutting the heart out of
price control."

Senator Morse
Brands Truman
As 'Ham Actor'
WASHINGTON, May 18. UP)
Senator Morse of Oregon told
the Senate yesterday President
Truman put on "one of the cheap
est exhibitions of ham acting I
haTO even seen" in announcing to
a Joint session of congress Sat
urday that the rail strike had
ended.
Morse broke Into a denuncia
tion of the President's emergency
legislation by Senator Downey
(D., Calif.) to assort that it was
known at the White House before
noon Saturday that the rail strik
ers were willing to go back to
work on terms laid down by the
President.
He noted that Mr. Truman had
interrupted his address, in which
he urged speedy action on the
emergency legislation, to an
nounce settlement of the strike.
"I think that was one of the
cheapest exhibitions of ham act
ing 1 have ever seen,"' Morse
shouted. 1
There was a burst of handclap
ping from spectators in crowded
galleries and Senator Huffman
(D., Ohio), then presiding officer,
rapped loudly for order.
Downey went ahead with his
address but a few minutes later
Senator Hatch ID., N. M.) got
the floor to protest Morse's re
marks. He demanded they be
stricken from the record.
Huffman anounced that the re
marks would bs stricken "with
out objection" but this was block
ed by Morse who jumped up to
protest.
"If I can get the floor again
I'll repeat them," Morse said.
Hatch Defends Truman
Hatch, a close friend of Mr.
Truman when the latter served
in the Senate, said:
"I don't think any senators, re
gardless of whatever hi party,
has the right to call the President
of the United States a ham actor."
Hatch said he realized that ail
senators are under great strain
and likely to say and do things
not intended.
But, Hatch said, the strain upon
the President is "one hundred
times greater."
Hatch added that it was his
information that only "purely
tentative offers" had been made
prior to Mr. Truman's appear
ance before congress.
Morse later told reporters off
the Senate floor that he had
"definite Information from the
brotherhoods" that they had de
livered to President Truman's ad
visers at the White House before
noon Saturday their acceptance
of the terms upon which the
strike finally was .settled.
Courts Can Ban
Ouster of Tenant
fending Appeal
WASHINGTON, May 28. .f)
The Supreme Court yesterday
ruled federal courts can provont
eviction ot tenants pending ap
peals based on OPA rules.
Justice Black delivered two
unanimous opinions In deciding
two 'similar cases. Justice Jack
son took no part. '
The Justice Department ap
pealed from the Sixth Federal
Circuit Court at Cincinnati which
said it had no jurisdiction to en
join eviction proceedings in state
courts.
In one case the government
contended llob?rt C. Beever was
evicted Improperly from his
apartment after the landlord be
gan proceedings before a Cov
ington, Ky., justice of the peace
to regain possession. The U. S.
Circuit Court said it could do
nothing because at the time it
considered the case the tenant
had left the apartment. ,
The U. S. Circuit Court said It
could do nothing because at the
lime it considered the case the
tenant had left the apartment.
In the other case OPA had
sought to restrain eviction of a
tenant from a Columbus. Ohio,

junction pending the tenant's ap
peal. Justice Black said the circuit
court was wrong in its finding
that the Beever case was moot.
"The bare fact that the Beev
ers in order to-comply with the
writ of possession vacated their
apartment was not enough to end
the controverys," Black said.
In the Columbus case, Black
said the OPA was not barred by
a section of the federal judicial
code from going into federal
court to request an injunction
halting "an unlawful eviction."
Retail Prices of
Dairy Products to
Rise, Prediction
WASHINGTON, Mai- 28. (P)
The government is on the verge
of lotting prices go up a cent a
quart for milk and 10 to 12 cents
a pound for butter.
Disclosing this yesterday, offi
cials who withheld use of their
names, said also that cheese will
cost about 5 cents a nound more.
These officials, predicting an
announcement in a day or so, cit
ed two reasons for the decision to
boost retail price ceilings:
1. Grain and feed price In
creases earlier this month hik'jd
dairy production costs.
2. Price stabilization officials
have decided It would be futile to
try to put through any new food
subsidies in view of the opposition
in Congress.
On the basis of the latter point,
previous plana for a dairy sub
sidy increase July 1 are being
withdrawn. This, officials said,
will account for about half of the
imminent price jumD.
Bowles Changes Mind
Six weeks ago Stabilization Di
rector Bowles sharply rejected
proposals to boost dairy product
prices. He said such an increase
would hit family food budgets
hard and that he could not allow
that.
Later Bowles was persuaded to
authorize grain nrice increases in
a move to obtain more food for
famine relief. He gave in when
the agriculture deoartment con
tended that bonu-. pavments
granted for wheat and corn were
not turning the trick.
Bowles indicated on April 15
that there would be no dairy
product price increases before
Julv 1. What happened at that
time, he said, depended on what
Congress did about subsidies.
He reportedly is convinced now
that there will not be sufficient
subsidy money available to con
tinue present food payments.
