Note: Following if the first of three dispatches by Ray mond Lahr, United Press Interna tional political writer, conceminf the election year controversy over state right-to-work laws. The dis patch describes the issues and tells how the battle lines have formed. By RAYMOND LAHR UPI Correspondent ' Washington- (DPD -Rival po litical candidates and their supporters are locked, in struggle in 10 states over one of the sharpest issues of the 1958 campaign - so - called "right-to-work" laws. The margin by which the voters accept-or reject-such proposals in the Nov. 4 bal loting may go a long way in determining whether other states will seek to adopt such laws. An adverse verdict would lend steam to repeal efforts in some states which already have them. Under particularly ' sharp watch will be the outcome in Ohio and California, both large industrial states which have seen some of the sharp est political infighting on the issue. Basically, right - to - work laws forbid union shop and similar labor - management agreements which require employees to -. belong- to un ions to hold their jobs. Un ion leaders contend such agreements are vital to "union security" and bitterly oppose any curbs on them. They have picked up some allies, including the recently formed National Council for Industrial Peace, headed by Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt, and former Democratic Sen.

Voters in all 10 states in which the proposal is an issue have been ' bombarded with arguments pro and con. In its recently-published Union Security, the Case Against the Right-to-Work Laws." the AFL-CIO says the objective of such statutes is to weaken, cripple and ulti mately destroy trade unions." Proponents describe ..the laws as a safeguard to indi vidual freedom and as pro tection against "compulsory" union membership. All of the 18 laws in effect protect the right to oin as well as to refrain from join ing unions. Both sides base their arguments in part on the experience in the states which have adopted the laws. Thus the National Right to Work Committee publishes a table showing that union membership grew 192.1 per cent between 1939 and 1953 in the right-to-work states compared with 187.8 per cent in "the other states. Direct Rebuttal v In direct rebuttal, the AFL- CIO book quotes Professor Frederic Meyers of the Uni versity of Texas as saying in a study of the Texas laws: It is virtually impossible to measure the precise effect of these laws on union organ ization, for no one can know what would have happened if another statutory environ ment had .prevailed." . Meyers'-study, published in October, 1955, also said Texas printing industries were hot as highly unionized at f at time as they were before the war. He added that union growth had been slow in the construction industry and in intrastate and local trucking at a time of rapid unioniza tion in interstate trucking. The right-to-work commit tee and the AFL-CIO present similar figures in different ways in an attempt to show what has happened economi cally to individuals in various states with right - to - work laws..
