Right-to-Work Legislation
' TTie Taft-Hartley Act recognize! state leg
islation in the field of labor relation, spe
cifically laws denying the closed or union
shop. A number of railroad workers In Ne
braska, which has on of these right-to-work
laws, tested in the courts a union shop con
tract negotiated by the Union Pacific railroad
With its employes. The case worked its way
to the U. S. Supreme Court where the Judges
returned a unanimous verdict upholding the
union shop contract. They held, in an opinion
by Justice Douglas, that 1951 amendment
to the Railway Labor Act authorizes the
union shop on railroads, regardless of state
laws. The court, however, did not invslidate
tat right-to-work laws as applied to other
. ... Ivnawa - fnfner rw

A minority of states have this legislation
now. The 'decision may be a spur to other '
states to get such a law passed. The gist of
a right-to-work law is simply that no person
shall be denied employment because of mem
bership' or non-membership in a labor or
ganization. 'Some states such as Oregon have
fair employment practice legislation, which
jtans discrimination in employment on the
cround of race, color, religion or national
origin. None of these acts, however, includes
k ban on discrimination because of non
Jnembership in a labor organization.
' i Labor unions fight these laws because
they are wedded to the principle of the
closed shop. They justify infringement on
Individual liberty and freedom of employer
-to contract on the ground of need to protect
rights of labor. Employers on the whole dis
jik the closed shop, not merely because of
hostility to labor organizations but also be
cause they object to forcing employes to
belong to a union.
: The Taft-Hartley Act aimed at ending job
'discrimination on the basis of union mem
bership but it did validate the union shop
Which in practice, works out pretty much the
same as the closed shop.
f ' Right-to-work laws may'embarrass unions
in their organization efforts, but they are
now so powerful they pretty well control
industrial labor even in right-to-work states
except in the South where unionism has
- been vigorously resisted. Unions have con
tinued to thrive under the Taft-Hartley Act
though it was condemned as a "slave labor
kct" The principle of Individual freedom
)eems basic; but the realities of modern in
dustry make its assertion and preservation
quite difficult So we remain in doubt as to
the value of right-to-work laws in our indus
trial society, much as we cherish the prin-,
eiple of freedom to Join or not to Join I labor

, Highway Program Sffma Assured
Congress is making progress hammering
out a highway bill The Senate Finance Com
mittee worked over the tax features of the
measure Monday, the only important change
from the House version was to lower the
tariff on big trucks. The House had imposed
an annual tax of f 150 per 1000 lbs. on total
weight of trucks weighing over 26,000 lbs.
The Senate committee changed this to make
the tax $2.50 per 1000 lbs. on the excess over
26,000. This was to meet the objections of
truckers who last year helped greatly to de
feat the bill then under consideration.
The other important change made by the
finance committee was to accept the rec
ommendation of Secretary Humphrey-that
spending each year be limited to revenues
under the act The effect of this is to erase
the need for borrowing in the early years.
However, the consequence also will be to ac
celerate the program in the later years of the
10-year program, because revenues are bound
to increase over the years. The theory of
those favoring more spending now is that
the improvements would be economically
sound and would produce savings far more
than are needed to meet the borrowing cost
It Is possible that the provision may be
Changed in the Senate or in conference.
Under the program the federal gas tax
will go up one cent and there will be added
taxes on tires and heavier excise taxes on
trucks, buses and trailers.
It begins to look as though highway leg
islation to expand the federal aid program
will be enacted at this session. The support
for it is ample and congressional committees
are working out the kinks that killed the
program at the last session of Congress.
Two Oregon Irrigation Projects
Columbia Basin projects appear to be far
ing quite well in pending appropriation bills.
When It comes to working for federal appro
priations, senators and representatives re
gardless of political, affiliation are eager to
"bring home the bacon." Whjle there is a cut
in the $50,000,000 recommended for The
Dalles Dam, additional sums were approved
in committee for planning of the John Day
Dam and for work on Ice Harbor Dam on
Snake River.
Then two Oregon reclamation projects are
winning approval. Both houses have passed
a bill authorizing an irrigation dam on Clear
Creek west of Maupin to provide supplemen
tal water for 2,100 acres in the Wapinitia
district. The Senate has approved a bill for
the Crooked River project near Prineville.
The cost estimate is $6,339,000. Excess waters
of Crooked River and Ochoco Creek would
be impounded to water 9,900 acres of new
land and provide additional water for irri
gating 10,220 acres now in short supply. This
bill calls for diverting over $2,000,000 from
profits of The Dalles Dam to help finance
this project.
Efforts in behalf of the Crooked River
project have been going forward for over
15 years, and success now seems imminent.
These lands are very fertile but require
water to make them productive.
School Levy Election Friday
' The annual election to validate a special
levy for school purposes will be held tomor
row at 17 polling places scattered over SD
24CJ. The excess to be approved amounts to
$1 ,829,31 6, the largest sum to be voted on
for an annual tax levy. While this amount is
large the requirements of the district keep
increasing due to the increased number of
schools and teachers to care for the increas
ing number of youngsters to be educated.
Most, of the excess for this year goes to in
crease teachers' salaries, an outlay fully jus
tified to maintain schools of good quality
and to compensate school teachers on a basis
fairly commensurate with wages in other
systems and partly to match the competition
with private industry. Approval of the levy
is recommended.
Polls are open from 2 to 6 p.m. Voting is
limited to registered voters, but signing of
pollbooks is not required.

led Bsqdash, has managed to
make Communism almost re
spectable in Syria. He can turn
out a street crowd of several
thousand whenever he chooses.
His organisers have partly pen
etrated the other leftwing
groupi.
But although Baqdash has the
usual organisational advantage
of Communists everywhere, he
hit much lest real appeal as yet
thtn the other leftwing leader
like the fiery Socialist. Akram
lluranl, and the military poli
tician, Opt. SaraJ. Furthermore,
men like Hurani and SaraJ ire
mark mare nationalist thaa
they art leftist. And their angry,
suspicious and violent brand of
nationalism does not lend itself
to final domination by the Com
munists. As for Saudi Arabltn bribe
money, this it one of the most
extraordinary phenomena in the
whole Middle East. In Syria and
Lebanen, the main centers of
expenditure, the Saudi Arabian
government it rather reliably
reported to be Investing some
thing like half a million a month
of its American oil dollars in
politicians and the press.
Yea hear welt-authenticated
tales ef organised presa visits to
Saudi Arabia, in the course of
which the Syrian and Lebanese
editors were each sweetened by
a tactful little envelope con

start a newspaper In Damascus,
however till hit rag may be,
can reportedly count on a tuf

- os of politicians of all colors are
equally wtll authenticated and
sea Bflgt BWetotla. Altoiet
er, the discovery of oil in Saudi
Arabia has brought t glowing
new prosperity to public life in
this part of the world.
But Communist organisation
only gives impetus; Saudi mon
ey only imposes unanimity. The
real direction of Syrian affairs
comes from Egypt, and more
specifically from Egypt's Carnal
Abjel Nasser.
Undoubtedly, Nasser's author
ity in Syria Is strongly rein
forced by the other members
of the "troika". I'ndoubtedly,
too, Egyptian authority is all the
easier to assert because Syrian
politics currently resembles
nothing so much as a basket of
eels. All the eels are in com
petition. The Egyptians, so to
tpeak, hold every eel by the
tail. Even rapt SaraJ does not
apparently have the strength to
take over the gvernment with
out Egyptian backing, which
there is good reason to believe
he would like to have but can
not get.
For the purpose of any prac
tical analysis of the Middle East
ern situation, it is vitally im
portant to note these truly re
markable features of the situa
tion here in Syria. But one
should not stop there- Normally,
the Communist organization
would not be so effective. The
Saudi bribery would arouse
more indignation. The Egyptian
leadership of Syria would be re
sented. But recent history, and par
ticularly the Palestine war, have
created an abnormal mood in
Syria, in which Gamal Abdel
Nasser's special b end of mil
itarism and anti-Westernism
have a great appeal And it is
this all-dominating mood which
causes the activities of Nasser's
allies to be tolerated, as it also
caused the voice of Nasser to be
heeded at all times.

It, moreover, a sizable sum re
maining unspent from previous
appropriations.
Probably one of the strong fac
tors inducing the committee to
cut the budget was uncertainty
as to the wisdom ind value of
much of the foreign aid spending.
Congressmen and senators have
been about the world, have
studied the spending process and
noted some of the results. Some
have been critical of the lack of
appreciation of U.S. bounties on
the part of foreign recipients.
Others question seriously the wis
dom of pouring out huge sums in
a race with Communist countries
for buying the goodwill of neutral
nations or holding the association
of our allies.
I find myself in sympathy with
those who call for a reappraisal
of our foreign aid program. It
has now become chiefly a pro
gram for military spending; and
that certainly calls for reexami
nation. If the next war is to be
decided by intercontinental mis
siles and long - range bombers
armed with H-bombs then the cor
don sanitaire around the Soviet
Union is of little avail. What the
nearby countries would get would
be the debris from aerial war
fare, or else extermination over
night. There it grave doubt also that
pouring out huge sums will bring
the uplift which the spenders ex
pect. Experience shows that rais
ing a whole population is a
mighty tlow process. The major
objective thould be to help other
peoples to help themselves not
just help themselves to Uncle
Sam's money.
We can't buy gratitude. It may
be possible to win more friends
by adjustments in our foreign and
trade policies than by gifts and
loans. In particular I see no long-
term gain from getting into an
auction with the Soviet Union for
favor of other nations.

Praise for Boat Rescue Squad
To the Editor:
"Rescue Boat Ready for Duty
on the Willamette." Statesman,
May 231. What wonderful news,
for those who are enjoying family '
boating on our beautiful Willam-j
ette river! I
Few people realize that in the
area served by the Oregon States
man there are more than 5000
pleasure crafts. More than 2000
of these are owned by families
who live within the corporate city
limits of Salem!
Salem is blessed with having,
right in the heart of the city, a
river that offers clean, whole
some recreation for thousands of
local families. The Willamette
keeps many cars off the highways
every weekend.
New boats are being launched
every week with new and inex
perienced skippers at the wheel.
Not all of these amateurs realize
the Dower of the fact rurrpnr nf
the Willamette and the perils Ofaboard
overloading. Few, indeed, under
stand the "rules of the road'' or
the mechanics of their engine.
How encouraging it is to know
that a group of citizens, mostly
our own police officers, have
spent a year and a half of their
off-duty hours and so much of
their own money to offer assis
tance where the need occurs to
people they have never met!
We dip our ensign in salute to
members of the Willamette
Search and Rescue Squad in their
tireless effort to keep our Willam
ette safe: and pledge every craft
in our fleet to their command in
the time of need
The Salem Boat Club,

Presbyterian
Group Study
Merger Plan
PHILADELPHIA W -A "plan
of union" with the United Pres
byterian Church will be the major
point of consideration at the 168th
General Assembly of the Presby-
in inn viiuim in uic j.j.r.
The seven-day assembly starts oi-
i finally Thursday morning.
The merger proposal i based j
on a three-way plan which was j
rejected by the Presbyterian j
Church In the U.S. (Southern I
group) in 1955.
If the plan is adopted, the new j
denomination would be known as i
the United Presbyterian Church
in the U.S.A., combining the 2,-j
"36.000 members of the Presby-'
terian Church in the USA and
the 235.000 members of the United ;
Presbyterian Church, which is ,
confined primarily to Pennsyl
vania. The larger group has Pres
byteries covering most of the 48
states.
There are no theological or doc
trinal differences between the two.
If the merger proposal is adopt
ed by the General Assembly here,
it will have to be approved by
two-thirds of the Presbyteries. In
the United Presbyterian Church,
a 'two-thirds vote of the General
Assembly is required, plus a ma
jority of Presbyteries, provided at
least two-thirds vote on the issue, j
The plan then would become ef-
fective unless rejected by a two-j
thirds vote of the next General j
Assembly. j
The General Assemblies of the
two churches would be combined
in 1958 at Pittsburgh. Presbyteries '
will be encouraged to promote ex

U.S. Housing
Graft Possible
By FRANK CORMIER
WASHINGTON l - Sen. Byrd
D Va said Wednesday the
Federal Housing Administration
(FHA) may be laying itself open
to new scandals. He cited a report
that one FHA project was spon
sored by a man on the agency's
own blacklist.
Byrd made public a letter to
President Eisenhower saying re
ports by the General Accounting
Office iGOA) shows "irregularities
and inefficiencies" in widespread
FHA operations. His letter, dated
May 16. did not indicate graft was
involved, but he wrote:
"While the four reports are di
rected to the Administration of
only a small portion of the vast
federal housing programs, as far
as they go they clearly show that
the elements which breed housing
scandal still persist."
Byrd also wrote Administrator
Albert M. Cole of the Federal
Housing and Home Finance Agen
cy (HHFA. parent of FHA, asking
"confirmation or denial" of the
GAO reports. The senator, acting
as chairman of the Senate-House
committee on reduction of non
essential expenditures, asked for
a report on what Cole is doing
about the reports.
The GAO reports, Byrd said,
cited "irregularities and ineffici
encies" in FHA offices in New
York City, Kansas City and Cleve
land and In 22 slum clearance
projects in 15 cities.
The White, House and Cole did
not comment on Byrd's letters but
the senator said they had written
promising more complete replies
later.
A number of FHA officials were
fired two years ago after Con
gressionaf inquiries turned up evi
dence of irregularities.
Employment
Up Except in
Auto Fields
WASHINGTON W - The Labor
Department Wednesday reported
rising employment in virtually all
sections of the country except auto
manufacturing centers, which were
designated surplus labor arras

Detroit and Flint, Mich , along
with South Bend. Ind . and Keno
sha, Wis., all auto centers, were
placed in the surplus labor cate
gory. This makes them eligible (or
favored treatment in receiving
government contracts.
Gov G Mennen Williams of
Michigan had appealed to have
Miihiran auto producing areas
placed on the favored list Auto
and farm equipment production
and employment have been laini;
due to reduced sales and high in
ventories. The Labor Department's Bureau
of Employment ciecurity said un
employment in Detroit had sagged
to 8 per cent of the availale work
force at the time of the survey,
some weeks ago. The bureau said
employment has continued to de
cline since then and "further cut
backs'' are expected.

For Contempt
PORTLAND - Circuit Judge
Martin W. Hawkins Wednesday
sentenced William Clarence Peddi
cord. 38. to six months in the
county jail for contempt of court.
! Peddicord, confessed department
store extortion bomber sentenced
j earlier to 20 years in prison, was
held in contempt for refusing to
testify at the trial of his sister-in-law.

pealed the 20-year sentence on the
! grounds it was excessive.

; rest room at the Meier and Frank

Portland in an attempt to extort
