He is president of the Cuban Exile Commit tee of Southern California and working diligently to pre vent further Castro explosions in Latin American countries.

The car at top, which collided with a truck, is almost to tally demolished, but even that destruction is not com plete enough for the wreckers’ purposes. The 15,000 wreckers in the U. S. salvage and re-sell more than $5 Billion annually in reclaimed parts. Then, to ship auto hulks to scrap processors, they feed the hulks into a giant machine that flattens them like the car in the lower photo. It’s Your Law! EAGER BEAVER “Hard work never hurt any one,” Eddie Beaver always said. He worked faster than anyone else in the shop. But Eddie’s union had a rule that any member who produced more than the set piece-rate must take time off. His extra production would be “banked” and he could take time off or use the extra work to get full pay when the shop work slowed down. Eddie disobeyed the rule. He kept on working faster than the rule allowed, and taking less time off. His union warned Eddie to slow down, or it would “fine” him. Eddie and his employer complained that the rate was unfair. When the union fined him, Eddie went to court, but lost. He had to pay the fine. Joining a union is somewhat like joining a club. If mdst members vote a course of ap- tion, you either go along or pay the penalty. If you disagree with its policies, your best bet is to try to work within the organization to bring about change. Eddie’s union had voted the piece-work limit to help its members, and the employer had agreed. Doing the work slowly promoted safety, and the older and slower men could not keep up the pace. The rule spared them embarrassment or even their jobs. The law watches labor and management closely, limiting what they may do. (Oregon lawyers offer this column as a public service.
