FOURTEEN MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Tuesday, December 7. 1954 'Right To Work' Laws Opposed by Mitchell In Convention Talk Los Angeles (U.R) Secretary of Labor James P Mitchell said today he opposes categorically "right to work" laws enacted by states which limit collective bar gaining between employers and in a speech prepared for delivery at the afternoon ses sion of the 16th annual conven tion of the Congress of Industrial Organizations, said such laws actually are not "right to work" Jaws. Bargaining Said Impossible "These are laws which make it impossible for an employer to bargain collectively with a ma jority of his employees about the security of their union," Mitch ell said. "I believe," the labor secre tary added, "that when employ ers and unions representing a majority bf their employees agree on a union shop they should have the right to have one." Mitchell appealed to states which have these laws to give them further consideration and "they will find that these laws do more harm thqn good." There are 17 of these states, 12 in the south. Such laws "do not create any jobs at all," result in undesirable and unnecessary limitations upon the freedom of working people and their employers to bargain collectively upon conditions of work and restrict union security which undermines the basic strength of labor organizations, he said. The labor secretary also stated -that a boost in the maximum weekly benefits rates in work men's compensation is needed badly to assure the injured work er of at least two-third of bis average weekly wages. Vould ReraoTi Restrictions In addition, Mitchell said, it would be helpful if the limita tions on medical -aid which now exist in 17 states were removed. "Your labor department is drafting a model workmen's compensation law which will help the states judge their pres ent legislation in the light of the experience of other states," Mitchell stated. "While there are workmen's compensation laws in all states," he added, "it is estimated that 12,000,000 workers still are not protected because of gaps in the coverage cf employment." Phoenix Post Office Moves to New Sife Phoenix The Phoenix post office moved last week to its new location next door to the old site, according to Postmaster Marie Furry. The new location will provide 960 square feet, almost double the room in the old building, she said. The new building is leased from G. G. Skinner and is con structed of concrete block with an asphalt tile floor. The postmaster stated that the move was made as soon as pos sible in order to handle the holi day season volume of mail. For Christmas package mail ing convenience, the post office will be open until 5 p.m. on the next two Saturdays, Dec. 11 and 18, she added.

High Taxes Turn Back Tide of City Dwellers Philadelphia (U.R) High taxes are turning back the tide of city dwellers who want sub urban homes, according to D. Rae Boyd, president of the Nor ristown Chamber of Commerce. "It appears that people are moving from new developments because of high taxes resulting from the cost of constructing fa cilities for such necessities as schools, and fire headquarters," he said. . ' : "There is no doubt that light industries should be invited to help support the things that are necessary for good government in newly developed communities."

(U.R) It's a long way from the hills of Scotland to Kentucky, but it would do 'any Scot's heart good to hear the skirling of the pipes as a unit of the Third Armored Division marches to class. Pvt. Lowell Thomson, the Army's only semi-official bag piper, has the job of piping his fellow GI's to class, assisted by a drummer. Thomson, played with the Clan McNaughton band m his hometown of Rochester, N.Y. His buddies think his rendi tion of the division's marching song is real crazy. - , .
