Mors Approvaa Injunctions A plan which would close the door tight against use of injunc tions to block strikes Imperiling the national welfare is being worked up by Senator Morse (R Ore). Morse Insisted the plan has a good chance for Senate approval despite strong support for In cluding the Taft-Hartley sact' eluding the Taft-Hartley act's labor law. Morses new plan would re quire affirmative action by Con gress Deiore seizure oi strucK plants could be put into, effect. And the amendment he is think ing about would say specifically that under no circumstances could the government get an in junction. Morse said that unless the in junction clearly is barred in the law, the government once a plant had been seized and the workers became federal employes could obtain an Injunction. He said a precedent for that is the Injunction the government ob tained in 1946 against John-L. Lewis' United Mine Worners Union, after the coal mines had been seized. "We've got to have something, said Morse, "that will prevent the granting of injunctions through the back door in that way." Senate leaders have been pre dicting that voting on amend ments to the administration bill probably would get started late this week. But Morse said he is sure the general debate won t subside until the middle of next week. Bull Carries Man To Death In River Dash THERESA. N. Y.. June 14.

Some lawmakers thought Eis enhower paralleled Republican doctrine when he went on to as sert that "the Army of persons who urge greater and greater centralization of authority and greater and greater dependence upon the federal treasury are real ly more dangerous to our form of government than any external threat that can possibly be ar rayed against us. Those views didn't seem to track with the policies of some of the leaders of the organization Americans for Democratic ac tion who tried so vigorously and failed last year to get the gen eral into the race for the Demo cratic proisdential nomination. Eisenhower thus lined up against a bill that has the sup port of both President Truman and Senator Taft (R.-Ohio). In this instance, he put himself in the same Dolitical camn with Sen ator Wherry of Nebraska, the GOP floor leader, and House mi nority leader Martin of Massachusetts. The House Labor Committee, already snarled up with labor, minimum wage and fair employ ment practice bills, seemed likely to give Eisenhower's views more than ordinary weight. The circumstances were such as to lend some credence to talk that he may be doing a little advance testing of the 1952 tem neratures. although Eisenhower as president of the country's big gest teacher-producing university was in his own field when he talked about education. As top Republican on a House labor subcommittee, Gwinn wrote for Eisenhower s views. Eisenhower replied that if Gwinn thought the committee wanted his "simple views" he could put the reply in the record, This in itself was a departure from the no-comment attitude the general has taken with regard to most issues ihat have become livolved in politics, as the aid to education proposal na .
