. BEHIND THE SCENES
IN WASHINGTON .

Also, the Department of Justice
has stepped into the picture
through the filing with CAB Of
petitions for leave to intervene
i'm the cases of five applications
from surface carriers who want
to get into air transportation.
The companies affected are
the Greyhound corporation now
operating bus lines, the Kansas
City Southern Railway, the Pam
Atlantic Steamship Company,
the Keeshin Freight Lines and
Universal Air Freight, operating
bus lines, warehouses and
freight forwarding services.
At first glance il would seem
that applications from trucks,
bus. railway and steamship lines
such as these, wanting to get
into the air transport business,
were healthy manifestations of
potential postwar business de-
velopment. Here are established
and successful companies, with
ample capital, facilities, operat-
ing brains and know-how, want
ing to broaden out in the air age.
They can hire Army pilots and
buy Army cargo planes after the
war and away they 60.
But the traditional policy of
the federal government, built up
through administrations OF both
political parties. would seem to
run counter TO any such develop
ment. This policy may be ex-
pressed briefly as a doctrine that
where an older form of trans
portation tries 10 dominate an
other, newer form of transporta-
ton, the older tends not TO de-
Velop the newer, but to throttle
il, control il, remove il as a
source Of competition TO the IA
cilitieS in which it has already
invested its larger capital and
has its greatest interest.
AIRLINES OPPOSE
OUTSIDE CONTROL
Insofar as control of an air.

BY PETER EDISON

AS an indication of how much
interest there is in the develop
ment of commercisl aviation
after the war, il need only be
mentioned that there are now on
file with the Civil Aeronautics
Board nearly 200 applications
for certificates Of convenience
and necessity TO start new air
routes and services.
They range all the way from
applications by established COM
mercial airlines to extend their
routes, 10 application by rail
roads, steamship lines, motor
truck lines, bus lines and
even one from a l6-year-old boy.
Everybody wants 10 get into the
business.
That raises the questions of
who is 10 own these airlines of
the future, how will their de-
velopment be financed, to what
extent will this air age expan-
sion be controlled in the public
interest? Here the federal gov
eminent steps into the picture,
with a traditional policy built
up during the last 30 years by
various acts of Congress specify
ing that one form of transporta-
ton shall not be controlled by
another.
Specifically, railroads h !
not control waterways nor motor
bus and truck lines, and none of
these shall control air transport
tation lines. But over this issue
impendS a bitter postwar battle
for big business control.

Supply,
By Shorty Sager
BACK YOUR COMMITTEE

It's to all our interest to give
our officers all our support in
these trying times.
We realize that our hands are
tied to a certain extent during
these days of war; but that is all
the more reason why we should
keep our organization together in
order to take up our real battle
once the war is over.
Despite the fact that we are not
making any progress, we at least
have some things which are worth
while holding our organization to-
gether for. We have seniority, job
security adm many other benefits
which are lot in return for the
little which we pay to maintain
our Union.
Let's stick together and we can
go places. Our slogan, United We
Stand" is no idle boast but truth
to which all Of us can and must
subscribe if we wish to continue
to receive the benefits which or
ganization has given us.

FISHER FINDS FUNDS

We read an article in a local
labor hating paper, to the effect
that Don Fisher, head of the Ohio
state LIQUOR board, has finally dug
up a s1,5O0,00O. That is only a
fractional part of the money that
was spent for liquor in the state
stores to buy more whiskey.
1t took John Bricker's men a
long time to find out that the dis
tilIers demanded cash for their
wares and refuse to sell on credit.
This is but one Of the reasons for
the small quantity of liquor in
Ohio and the reason it has to be
rationed.
Our reason for telling you this
is because the name of the Gov
ernor of Massachusetts has been
mentioned several times as pos
ible running mate for Bricker if the
latter makes a bid for the presi-
dental nomination.
In the great commonwealth
state of Massachusetts, they do not
believe in State Monopoly Stores
like they do in Ohio and they have
no more drinking than we do.
They have private liquor stores in
Boston and a liquor store in every
block. There is a store located in
the South Railroad Station right
where you can buy it getting off
and on railroad trains. You can
buy one bottle or ten and no ques-
tions asked. Try and do it here
and see what would happen.
We are wondering why the
Governor of Massachusetts, who is
so we'll liked by both organized la
Dor and the rest of the citizens
wants to hook up with another
Governor who is so hated by the
drinkers of his state and who is
known TO be closely connected to
the prohibition party of the State
OF Ohio.
The one and only way to clean
up this state and put it on a basis
of what is good for one is good
enough for all, is to vote and to be
able to vote. You must be regis
tered. Where do you register? AT
2t7 Superior St., open Monday
nights till 8 p. m. Brothers and
Sisters, if you are downtown shop
ping on Monday nights, it will only
take few minutes. Won't you do
it and help us clean out those labor
haters who occupy elective offices ?
