Egypt Leads Protests
On immigration Of
Jews 10 Palestine
By the Associated Press.

by lne Associated PreSS.
CAIRO, Mar. g. Seven Arab
speaking nations have now protested
to Washington against the pending
Senate resolution favoring extended
immigration of Jews to Palestine
and the situation in Palestine proper
is being closely watched to prevent
active trouble.
The latest protests came yesterday
when Nahas Pasha, Premier of
Egypt, sent letter to Marshal Jan
Christian SHUTS as "a friend to a
friend" objecting to the South
African Premiers letter to the
United States favoring the same
aims as the Senate resolution.
United States Minister Alexander
c. Kirk visited Nahas Pasha earlier
to deliver verbal reply to the
Egyptian protest to Washington. 1t
is understood Mr.. Kirk said the con-
gressional resolution did not neces-
sarily represent the position of the
administration.
Egypt Takes Lead.
Egypt took the lead in the wide
protest by the Arabic nations.
Similar action by Iraq, Syria
Lebanon, Trans-Jordan, Saudi
Arabia and Yemen followed.
The Pan-Arab Federation. which
is growing unofficial power in
Middle East affairs, also entered a
protest, as did the Arab Womens
Federation.
1t is the position of Egypt and the
Pan-Arab Federation, both now led
by Nahas Pasha, that the Arab
countries are strongly opposed to

immigrants, Notwithstanding pro-
visions of British white paper
which would close that area to such

told the House yesterday:
''We can be good neighbor and
a stanch ally without submitting

Mr. Compton asserted the House
and Senate had been subjected to
pressure" by the War Department
and Arab legislators in the coun-
tries under British control" to take
no action on pending keep-Pales-
tine-open resolutions which Mr..
Compton has joined others in spon-
soring.
Meanwhile, at Baltimore, Repre-

York asserted in a speech before the

ployer and that the individual can
decide at the end of the contract
whether or not to remain in a
union. The implication is that an
individual can be bound to a union
during a contract but, curiously
enough, no worker can be lawfully
bound to the employer during that
same contract. The employe who
wants to quit his job can do so
at any time, thus depriving the
employer of those services on two
weeks notice. But the employe
who wants to quit the union and
stay on his job will lose that job
by order of a governmental agency.
If that isn't of doubtful legality,
then a governmental agency has
the right to compel a worker to
stay on the job any time it wishes
to do so in peacetime as we'll as
wartime. Surely Congress must
some day decide whether a gov
ernmental agency can take away
from an individual and from an
employer the right to continue in
a job relationship irrespective of
the wishes of third party.

q,

ut suits England's convenience not

cepted the mandate over Palestine -
THE failure Of our State Depart

clauses Is lawful, then 1t would be
constitutional to order man to
stay on the job even though he
wants to quit.
The right to control mans job
has hitherto been recognized as
either that of the employer or the
individual. Now third party can
control the job, a party which has
not the responsibility of employment
nor the responsibility for providing
economic redress for the worker who
Is deprived of his job.
The latest opinion of the War
Labor Board argues that mainte-
nance OF membership clauses are
lawful. There is no support for that
statement except personal opinion.
No case has ever been tried by any
Federal court which passes on the
question and the only dictum on
record which bears on the subject
is the public statement of President
Roosevelt in November, 1941, that
the Government would never COM
pei q man to join a labor union as
q condition of employment. 1t is
true that he did not add that the
Government never would compel a
man to remain a member of labor
union as a condition of continued
employment but the logic behind
the first statement supports the Sec
ond.
Complusion Seen.
Once the Government comes into
control of the job relationship of a
worker, imposing upon the employer
q requirement that he dismiss a
worker who is efficient and COM
petent, it is as logical to contend that
the Government has the right to
compel worker to stay at his job.
No such legislation has ever been
passed by Congress. The proposed
universal service law would tie the
compulsory service into the mill
tary operation and presumably the
Government would control work
er's job relationship as a part of
the war effort. But the War Labor
Board is functioning without any
such war powers and there is some
thing in the constitution which is
supposed to ban involuntary servi-
tude."
If the Government has the right
to coerce an employer into given
relationship with an employe, it has
. right to coerce the employe to
stay on the job. 1t probably is
more nearly right to say that the
Government does not possess either
right.
EE 1888 Case Quoted.
In the War Labor Boards opin-
ion q quotation is made from a
Supreme Court case in 1885 where
In the court says of the Wagner
law:
THE act does not compel the
petitioner (employer) to employ
any one. 1t does not require that
the petitioner retain in its employ
an incompetent. -"
From this it would certainly be
inferred that the court would also
say that the law does not require
an employer to discharge a COM
petent person. Yet that is precise
" what the War Labor Boards
opinion now would require. In the
case of the maintenance of mem
bership" clauses forced on employ
ers by governmental agency, the
employer must dismiss worker if
the latter refuses to pay dues to
a union or continue as union
member.
The War Labor Boards reason
Ing Is that a worker is only bound
for the duration of the contract
which the union has with the en-

A. The War Department says that
as of February 3 the number of
Japanese prisoners of war held in
the United States totaled 116.
@. When was baseball first known
by this name?-G. o. L.
A. In 1910. when sacks filled with

referred to as bases and the game
came to be known as baseball.
@. How does the per capita tax in
this country compare with that of

A. Comparison is rather difficult.
The per capita tax for the fiscal

good posture. Hold your head bal
anced and erect. That doesn't
mean stiff- -necked or stretch-necked,
but just relaxed and looking straight
ahead. Look the world straight In
the eye-and you have the idea.
Keep your shoulders straight. but
relaxed and low. Shrugged shoul-

mannequins, but they make for bad
posture. Next, hold your chest high.
That doesn't mean a pouter- pigeon
effect, either. AS a matter of fact,
II your back is straight and your
shoulders held properly, la belle

Probably the most important
posture precept Is to hold your alb

to do this, the rest comes easy. At
the same time tuck in your der

Knees should be straight, but not
stiff, with the weight thrown on
the outer borders of your feet, and
always put one foot in front of the
other at each step.
Standing up straight against a
wall Is a good way to get the gen.
eral feeling of good posture,
although, with bow to the United
States Army, we think a good two
word rule for posture would be
stand tall. (The manual doesn't
say thatD Actually, with good pos
ture you can stand a whole inch

Aside from the looks of it, stand
