Communist Control of Labor
Now Slipping at Rapid Pace
THE BEND BULLETIN, BEND, OREGON
Friday, JULYp, 1951
By l.vle C. Wilson
(Unltnl FrM Surr Currmohilit)
Washington, July 20 M An
18-month-old baby wltich almost
did not get bom at all is now one
of the west's most dependable
defenders against communism.
The name of this prodigy is In
ternational Confederation of Free
Trade Unions, ICFTU. for short.
ICFTU has Just run off its sec
ond world congress at Milan,
Italy. From It came progress re
imports toward a solidly construct
ed barrier against communist in
filtration into the free world la
bor movement. " .
The organization came Into be
ing and now exists as a challenge
to communism. Its membership
extends to all- the free world and
some of its most important mem
ber unions are socialistic, and IC
FTU in time doubtless will be to
some degree a transmission belt
for. socialist politics and econom
ics. But right now the outfit is
busy keeping the labor dykes
firm against the reds.
Alliance Hlgnlf leant
American members of .ICFTU
are the CIO, AFL and John Lew
is' United .Mine Workers, a sig
nificant alliance. The Free World
Labor Confederation is one of
the few areas where these three
organizations sit down together.
ICFTU was born in London
Dec. 7, 1949. A year previously
the CIO, British and Dutch unions
had withdrawn from a sucker
trap baited by the Kremlin Im
mediately after the war and coll
ed the World Federation Qf Trade
unions iwi' iuj, ..
This red world federation was
to have been the greatest,, most
dangerous communist front of
them all. It was conceived in Mos
cow as a device with which com
munists would Infiltrate the labor
movement throughout the world
an they already had wormed their
way to power in, for example, the
CIO. '
Led by Hillman
The late Sidney Hillman led the
CIO into Moscow's World Federa
tion and a sachem in its structure
of position and power. Lee Press
man, a self-confessed communist
at one time or another, was CIO's
general counsel then; Communist
dominated unions dominated in
turn, the CIO and president Phil
lip Murray was their prisoner.
For pressman, the wn u wouiu
have been a big thing. ' '
The socialist unions or ureal
Britain galloped into the picture
n pitiful ignorance oi wnar ine
communist comrades In WFTU
vere plotting.
WFTU spread world-wide In a
twinkling and Moscow was well
on the. way to winning the first
reat contest of the atter-war per
iod. -
Lewis' miners and the AFL held
hack: There were jealousies
among the three largest Amen.
can labor organizations and those
lealousies were reason ror going
ilow. But most all the miners and
the AFL rejected WFTU as a
communist project. They and the
news dispatches from washing
ton hit hard at the CIO's new
associates.
- Evidence Mounts .
The evidence over the years fi
nally became sufficient for Mur
rav. He took the CIO out In Jan
uary, 1949. The following May he,
himself, fingered the communists
and communist unions In his own
CIO.
Americans, British, Dutch and
others becran setting up their antl
communist' federation in.chal-
thur Stlllwell, at' their Browns
ville home. The girls will return
to Redmond over the week end.

General Drainage
System Opposed
By Unit Settlers
Madras, July 20 Responses ,to
a mail vote conducted through
the office of County agent Paul
N. Barnes, showed settlers of the
North Unit Irrigation district con
clusively against establishing a
general drainage system for the
50,000 acres of watered land. The
vote showed 135 against .the pro
posed over-all system, while 96
favored the plan. Settlers Indi
cated that they are content to
permit community cooperative
districts or individuals to take
care of drainage probtems. '
Irrigation authorities who have
studied the local situation, how
ever, believe that the farmers
here are simply postponing a day
of trouble. Although water has
been on the north half of the
big reclamation project only
three years, It Is cited that lack
of drainage is already resulting
