"
 Not only is he sure of decisive majoriteis in the House and Sen- ate Labor Committees, which are handling the legislation, but the chairmen of both bodies whole heartedly favor 1t and are aggreS- sive, able parliamentarians.
 The committees and their chair men are of utmost importance in the career of any bill. For 50 controversial measure as the wage-hour proposal, they may mean the difference between life and death.
 The President is especially for tunate in having Chairman Hugo Black of the Senate Labor Com mittee to lead his battle in that chamber. The Alabaman Is & tenacious scrappcr and one of the ablest parliamentarian in con- gress. Also, as southerner he will carry much weight in coun- cring resistance from that section. Opposition.
 The opposition to the legisla- ton comes chiefly from two quar- conservative employer cle- ments who arc opposed to all labor laws, and southern interests.
 The southerners, for the most part, are not against the bill per NC, but they fear that t will put \ damper on their rapidly expanding industrial develop ment. Many northern plants are moving to the south be- cauSe of It's cheap, unorganizcd labor, and the southern con- gressmen and senators are afraid the administration measure will slow down or halt this trend.
 II is certain to be enacted in Some form. Privately, however, the leaders arc worried that It will be whittled down or cncuin- bcred with restrictive amend mentg.
 They are prepared to make con- sessions but arc determined to prevent any Fundamental change. To safeguard the bill they are counting on the theory that once it gets on the floors of congress, the members will fear political reprisals from labor and be chary about voting against it.
 NOTE The hearings on the legislation brought two new mem bers into prominence: Florida's Senator Claude Pepper and Texas Representative Albert Thomas. Both men won high praise from colleagues for their able discus siong of the issue.
 SEC Vote
 It has not leaked out yet. but Chairman Jim Landis of the &c., curitieS and Exchange Commis- sion has become the center of d conspiracy to block the appoint mcnt of William o. Douglas as his successor.
 Lands Is leaving soon Co be- come Dean of tho Harvard Law School. IIls doctors have pre- scrIbed a long rest before he takes up his new duties, 70 he plans to leave the Commission in July.
 Nevertheless, Landis has just been reappointed to the SEC for 6 period of five years.
 There was only one reason for this. Next June 30, the SEC votes on who is to be Landis' Suc- ceSgor. Since his term expired June 6. Roosevelt had to reap point him if Jim was to remain in office N more important days in order to vote for the new chair man.
 And Landls--In line with hIs recent Wall Street leanlngs-- plans to throw his vote to Com missioner George Mathews, also . Wall Street Icaner.
 SEC Split
 This reveals what has not leaked out before, that for many months the SEC has been split Into two widely differing camps. In one camp has been Bill Douglas, democrat, adainant fc Of Wall Street, together with Judge Robert Hoaly. republican. of Yer.

combat division overseas; he had been a business man; an employer although in a small way. He had experience in the problems and difnculties of a boss. He had "a most bitter personal knowledge in the injustices to which workers have been subjected. Neither the experience nor the knowledge erll- bittered him. But the latter mugt have fired him with the purp0sc to which he devoted his entire congresslOna life: the eradication of industrial abuses, the elimina- ton of child labor, and the estab- Ilshment If better way of living for those who had only known the worst way of living.

Never Forgot

"Bill" never forgot what he had gone through; he never forgot that it was the law of the period which made his sufferings something irI- possible to correct and hopeless to escape; he never forgot, when bet ter days came and with them ? measure of power, hls determine ton to see to it that others should walk the path of social and eco homie freedom from which he had been barred. To that end he de- voted his energy, his unquenchable zeal, his single-mindcd sincerity, and his un-impeachable honesty. To that end he sacrificed an iil- herent love for the association of his fellows. He was an informed, witty conversationalist, and story teller with few peers and fewer supcrlors. He lived life of abso- lute retirement outside the con- gressional arena for no other req son than to conserve his strength of mind and body for the cause to which he devoted himself and for which, whatever the medical reason for his death, he died.

BIacklisted

Connery, like other faithful members of his union found him. self, after the White Rat strike which failed because the organiza- ton was powerless against a com pany union suborned and support ed by the vaudeville managers, and the imposition of a "Yellow Dog" contract by the same erl- ploying group, blacklisted in every variety theater, every burlesque combination, and every circus in the United States and Canada. It Is no cxaggeration to say that never in the history of the couIl- try in any department of the working world has there ever been so universal, so effective, and 70 illegally vicious as the blacklist against which "Bill" Connery tried to earn h. living. It drove him out of the show business and made him one of t':c greatest advocates of, fighters for, and champions of the cause of the underdog the House of Representatives has known. His case is another den1- onstration that good may come out of evil. The combination of con- scienceless employers which drove him out to starve wrought diffcr- ently than they hoped.

Not Bill"

Expediency, political opportun- ism, and vote-getting too often mark the actions and the policids of a certain friend of labor" type in the political sphere. None Of these motives animated "BilP Connery. The legislation which bears his name. with that of Sena- tor Hugo Black. has been greeted with a fury of opposition by those who believe 1t will hit their pock- etbooks 6 wallop. It is legislation which is not perfect but 1t marks a beginning in the right direction and subsequent correction will eliminate It's deficiencies. No one will be. or could be more willing, to accept the corrections and tp remove what genuine inJustices It's application may entail than MT. Conncry. For above all he was . man with . strict and vigilant conscience. Opinions may, and do differ, about the wisdom, the rightfulness. and the timcliness of his legislative position on labor affairs. There can be no differ encc on the score that 1t was iIi- spircd by an exalted moral sense and maintained without regard foE fear or favor.
