White House Seeks Anti Red Rulings BT FRED S. HOFFMAN " WASHINGTON VP) The govern ment has asked Congress for far- reaching- power to dissolve communist-honeycombed labor unions. A request for this and other new nUsubversive authority was sent to Capitol Hill yesterday by Atty. Gen. Brownell. who said he has the- backing of the White House. Brownell proposed that the Sub versive Activities Control Board SACB) be empowered to disband not only Red-infected unions, but In a new departure to dissolve business firms it finds are Communist-infiltrated and in a position to harm national security. The attorney general also sug gested that Congress , permit the government to bar - subversives irom privately owned defense plants. The union-dissolution power was proposed as a drastic substitute lor Taft-Hartley Act require ment that union officials file non Communist oaths with the National Labor Relations Board before then- unions can be eligible lor board ervices. Sen. Ferguson of Michigan, chairman ot the senate Republican Policy Committee, promptly intro duced two bills to implement Brownell's recommendations. The Justice Department is known to have bad trouble trying to en force the non-Communist oath re quirement. In the seven years since the Taft-Hartley Act became law, the department has investigated scores of cases of union officials suspect ed ot tiling false non-Oommunist affidavits, but there have been only tour convictions, and one of these was reversed. , According to Justice Department authorities, the difficulty stems from language requiring union of ficials to certify only that they re not Communists at the time of filing.. They say an official with Red connections could resign Iroin the Communist party to take the oath, then rejoin the next day. These of flcials . said they hoped the union-dissolution weapon would impel Red dominated labor organ izations to purge themselves. Whirlybird Pilot Rescues Fliers FAIRBANKS, Alaska An Air Force helicopter pilot, maneuver ing his plane In the air currents swirling around lofty Mt. McKinley yesterday rescued a' flier and his wife who had been' marooned lor four days on the peak's snowy slopes. After three days of 100-mlle-per- nour winds and fog, Capt.

Let's now take a look at Secre tary ot War Stevens. Here Is what he did: Being scared of McCarthy, he PA1AVERED. Hero is what he should have done: He should have said flatly. In the rugged language of the armv: "Hell. NOI Why should I provide a soft berth for a rich kid who happens to be a protege ot yours when 20 million other American kids have had to go through the hard way and take it as it came? "What kind ot a guy do you think I am. anyway?" That would have ended it. All he would have had to do thereafter was to stand pat and the American people would have backed turn up. We must of course give Stevens credit for not Just knuckling under to McCarthy's demand for prefer ential treatment for one of his men and hushing it up. That would have saved him from a nasty exper lence. But it would have been far betteiif he had handled the matter in the ruggeder. more elemental way. That would have inspired con fidence in the army instead of tending to shake confidence. But. since it was handled as it was, I thmk the public hearuig three-ring circus methods and all has been a good thing (or our country. It has given all ot us the feeling that we have seen all and heard all that nothing has been hidden away from us in a bureau drawer. But I think it's about time to call it a day. , Milk Prices To Stay Same Market milk prices will remain the same as at present in the tri county milk sales area, it was learned from Wilbur Haskins fol lowing an announcement of recommended reductions from the State Board of Agriculture. Haskins represents the Klamath Grade A Producers Association which, with the Medford Milk League.' makes Up Trl-County Milk Sales ot Klamath, - Siskiyou and Jackson counUes. The board recommended that minimum prices be lowered, cuts to come out of producer prices, "based on the assumption that lower feed prices will bring the cost of production down." Haskins pointed out that pro ducers and distributors have re cently given, two voluntary price reauciions, ana tnat tne "assump tion" of lower feed costs is not now a fact in this area. Retail milk prices were reduced one per quart on December 1 and a half cent again on April 1. rroaucers are conducting a con tinuing analysis of feed, costs to see if the state's assumption does become true, Haskins said.
