L Q &h , NEW CAPITALISM Norman Thomas, above, Socialism's chief spokesman in America for two generations, predicted Monday m an mterview with UPI Staff Correspondent Fred erick M. Winship that neither Socialism nor Communism will prevail in the world in capitalism will take over. Thomas Predicts New Capitalism In World in 1980 Editor's note: Few people ever took seriously the six presidential campaigns waged by Socialist Norman Thomas. But despite the "socialist" label on his ideas, some of lhem have found a way into accepted practice. On the eve of his 75th birthday, Thomas looks ahead againl ' In the following dispatch he pre dicts that the governmental systems of United Slates and Russia are moving clos er together. By FREDERICK M. WINSHIP United Press International New Yorlr (UPD Norman Thomas, Socialism's chief spokesman in America for two generations, predicted to day that neither Socialism nor Communism will prevail in the world of 1980 but rather a new form of caoitalism. Both the United States and Russia are moving toward this form,' he said, but it still will be "garrison state capitalism . . . for security through mili tary strength will be the prime motivating factor." "It is not Socialism or Com munism that will prevail 20 years from now, if we are to continue as we are now with out catastrophe," said the six times unsuccessful , candidate for the presidency who will be 75 years old next Friday. Business-Gqvernment Merger "What we will have is capi talism practiced by the state for the benefit of the state. This will approximate the Russian system, so there will be little to fight over," By 1980, Thomas said, gov ernment and Big Business will have merged, a trend already clearly defined by the mush rooming economic power of a relatively small number of great industrial corporations and the appointive posts of enormous executive power in Washington occupied toy their representatives. The vast and expensive efforts of waging a cold war with Russia serve to magnify and hasten this de velopment." ' "Americans seem prostrate before the trend," Thomas said. "AH they want is secur ity. State capitalism will give them this, but at what a price!" Little Progress Made The still - handsome veteran of many a proletarian crusade is the first to admit that So cialism itself has made little progress in America since some of its social welfare and economic planning precepts were incorporated into Frank lin D. Roosevelt's New Deal. He says he sometimes feels like a voice crying in the wilderness - but it is a voice that has the respect of some of the nation's best minds. ; . Thomas' role as something of an elder statesman is amply demonstrated by the impres sive list of sponsors for a gala birthday dinner at the Star light Roof of .the Waldorf- Births JOSLYN-To Mr. and Mrs. Robert, 129- Orchard lane, Ashland, Nov. 15, 1959, a boy, 6V4 pounds, at Ashland Gen eral hospital.

Barry Gbldwater (D-Ariz.) charged today that United Auto Work ers' President Walter Reuther is using the dues and initia tions fees of UAW members "to keep hundreds of thous ands of those. same members out of work." . Goldwater said in a state ment that is . the "practical effect" of a $1 million gift from; the United Auta Work ers treasury to the United Steel Workers. Goldwater said the gift is "designed "to keep the steer strike going." J?he senator said he doubts whether the gift reflects the wishes of the automobile workers "in view of the. fact that the steel . strike has thrown - thousands of auto workers out of work."

Mediator Meets With Both Sides In Paper Strike Portland-flJPD - Federal Me diator Elmer Williams met with both sides in Portland's newspaper strike today to try to find some way to end the walkout. - ' '- It was the first meeting at tended by both striking Stere- otypers and management rep resentatives of the Oregon Journal and Oregonian since the strike began a week ago today. There was no indication, however, that agreement was near. Williams met separtely with both sides last week. The two newspapers have been publishing a combined edition in . the Oregonian plant. Other Developments As the strike headed into its second week there were these other developments. 1. The Stereotypers union, through attorney Don Rich ardson, asked U.S. Attorney C. E. Luckey to investigate the possible violation of fed eral statutes by the bringing in of out-of-state craftsmen. William W. Knight, publish er of the Journal, and M. J, Frey, publisher of , the. Ore gonian, said in a joint state ment: "The charge is without merit.'. We will welcome any investigation and will coop erate to the fullest extent in pressing one to a conclusion should it be undertaken." Join Picket Line 2. The Multnomah Typo graphical Union and the Local Mailers Union, affiliate of the International Typographical Union, joined the stereotypers on the picket line. A state ment said "due. to the fact that strikebreakers have been brought into the Oregonian plant .... the international union of the two locals recog nized that a lockout exists be tween the publishers and these unions." 3. Folice questioned two men seen entering a local hotel. One, who said he came here to do-newspaper work, had two rifles and two shot guns which he said were per sonal hunting weapons. How ever, . management said that in view of the strike they con sidered the action potentially provocative and that he was ho longer employed. Cincinnati, Ohio-flJPD-Harry W. Mayo, 47, a veteran news paper reporter and editor for the Cincinnati Post and Times-Star for the past 21 years, died Monday.
