Arphoto of the meaU $3.50 Dairy Cattle and livestock
Unit of the Umiversitu Of MARYLAND

COLLEGE PARK, MIDI. Ken
meth keller, head of the animal and
dairy husbandry department of the
University of Maryland, today an
nounced the plan of his department
for research work in connection with
the new $25O,000 dairy cattle and live
stock unit recently completed here un-
der State-WPA building program.
DR.. Ikeler said he felt the new IA
cilities, together with the experienced
and well trained personnel of the de-
partment, placed the University in a
leading position to render new and
valuable service to the $4O,OOO,OOO
State livestock industry.
Fifteen different research projects
are now underway, involving ()
Breeding and Testing; (2) Feeding
and Nutrition; (3) Livestock Disease
Studies Cooperating with veterinary
science); (4) Studies in Quality Milk
and It's Products; (5) Quality Meat
Studies; and (6) Marketing of Live
stock and Its Products Cooperating
with agriculture economics).
Several additional research projects
are contemplated on pasture studies
in swine production, and in certain
phases of protein, vitamin and min
eral studies.
In addition to these DR.. Tkeler
pointed out "the need for research
work to increase the efficiency of milk
production by the concentration of i'm
proved germ plasm in carefully con-
trolled dairy cattle breeding expert
ments to offset the increased cost OF
milk production"
The new facilities of the University
including buildings, equipment, and

A PUBLIC SERVICE

Anything that focuses national attention on
the problem of unemployment in the United States,
with view to taking remedial action, is a public
service. The problem is so great, serious, so
far-reaching in its consequences that it can only
be solved by united effort.
Such effort is the aim of the conference called
in Washington for June and by organizations
of three great religious groups - Protestant,
Catholic and Jews. The paramount aim, stated
in the call, is Form a united will to abolish un-
employment"
Leaders of the conference ask the churches to
send one thousand church people widely repre-
sentative of various geographical areas and faiths
A frank facing of the facts of unemployment
is sought, with the idea of emphasizing conse-
qhences Of the problem the responsibility of every
American for solving it and the study of various
specific proposed remedies
Aims of the conference are in harmony with
the declarations of organized labor, which has
long insisted that continuing employment is a
problem that demands the best efforts of all ele-
ments in the population if it is to be solved

|Reynaud to the French Senate that the high COM
|mand had ben guilty of unbelievable faults" in
permitting the German passage of the Meuse. The
delegates to the convention of his union, whom
Mr.. Hillman addressed, showed their agreement
with him by trooping through the aisles of their
meeting hall for twenty minutes shouting, 1--WE
want peace" and "We want unity" Later they
unanimously adopted resolution calling for re-
sumption of the peace negotiations. Are we wrong
in thinking that Lewis in his speech and it's follow
ling demonstration suffered a severe jolt?
1t would be far to soon to say that labor was
through with Lewis But here we have dramatic
|evidence of it's WEAKNESS with the schism he
created and has kept alive to further his personal
ambitions. 1t was about year ago that David
|Dubinsky, head of the international Ladies' Gar
|ment Workers Union and like Hillman, tower of
strength to Lewis, led his organization out of the
|CIO. 1t was Dubinskys contention that united
labor movement was more important than indus
trial unionism Hillman has specifically declined
Ito follow Dubnsky's example, but who will say
the threat is not there? And the CIO simply can
mot offord another such detection In other words,
lit begins to look as if Lewis would have to make
peace or (perhaps the connective should be "and')
lose his empire.

CORRUPTION OF LIBERALISM

(FrOm the Electrical workers JOufnal)
II ABOR has watched with cynicism and dismay
- the part the liberals of the United States have
played in the United Front. Almost to man the
liberals have supported the wrecking groups in
the American labor movement, and no liberal voice
has been lifted up against the slow chipping away
of labor's power by government.
Now Lewis Mumford neatly calls the liberals
to task in recent issue of the New Republic:
Liberals no longer act as if justice mattered,
as if truth mattered, as if right mattered, as ii
humanity whole were any concern of theirs
the truth is they no longer dare to act. During
the period of the United Front, liberals accepted
the leadership of a small Communist minority,
fanatical, unscrupuous, deeply contemptuous of es-
sential human values, incredibly stupid in tactics
and incredibly arrogant in matters of intellectual
belief; they accepted this leadership simply be-
cause the Communists, along among the political
groups, had firm convictions and the courage to
act on Them
"Now that the moral treachery of the Com
munsts has placed them alongside their natural
tactical allies, the Fascists many of these liberals
have, practical points at issue, drfted into
"a covert defense of Hitlerism."
Hard things have been said about labor by
liberals during the last decade, but if any labor
group en- masse has deliberately and shamelessly
failed in it's function to society the liberals have
we would like to know who the labor group is.

GAPS IN COMPENSATION LAWS

recent United States Department of Labor
bulletin reveals occupational diseases in the vscose
rayon industry and says that thousands of workers
in the industry are today better protected because
of an inquiry undertaken by the department two
years ago.
The inquiry found that viscose workers need not
be exposed to carbon disulphide poisoning, major
danger in viscose rayon plants Protective meas
ures are possible all along the line of manufacture
it was proved. Not long after the study was be-
gun, number of plants installed improved venti-
lating systems, enclosed some of the more dan
gerous operations and took other precautions.
Carbon disulphide poisoning and hydrogen
suphide poisoning, another hazard to viscose
rayon workers, both of which menace workers in
some other industries, illustrate the growing i'm
portance of chemicals in the industrial processes
of today Study of the industrial poisons to which
workers are exposed and improvement of indus
trial hygiene and safety, are plainly major needs
in the protection of millions of workers. the Labor
Department points out
Another need is the extension of workmen's
compensation laws to give a measure of protection
to occupational disease victims and their families
All except two states have some sort of work
mems compensation laws. Of these, however, only
23 states provide any cOverage at all for Occupa.
tonal diseases. This is serious gap in the pro
lection given by compensation laws.
