Brief Attacks Validity Of
Texas Anti-Union Act

New York City (ILNS). - In the
case of II. ]. Thomas, who has APP
pealed to the U. s. Supreme Court
from a conviction under the Texas law
which provides that paid labor union
organizers must register in order to
solicit members, the National Fedora
tiOn for Constitutional Liberties has
filed with the Supreme Court in sup
port of Thomas, an amicuS brief which
challenges the e@constitutiOnality of the
Texas statute. This case arose out of
a test which Thomas made of workers;
to join the CIO Oil Workers Interna-
tional Union at Pelley, Texas, Sept.
%, 1943.
The federation brief states i'm part
that the Texas law Limits the full
freedom of association which workers
should enjoy; it infringes on the basic
freedoms of speech, press and assem-
bly, does violence to the concept of
equal protection of the laws guaran-
teed by the Fourteenth Amendment of
the Federal Constitution; depriveS
persons of their liberty and property
without due process of law in violation
of the Fourteenth Amendment; and
deprives some citizens of the United
States and of the State of Texas of
privileges and immunities secured to
other citizens Of the United States and
of the State of Texas
The brief further states that: THE
Texas statute is inimical to the best
interests of the nation for it seriously
curtails the rights of men and women
in trade unions who are today making
tremendous and vital contribution to
the war effort"

A True Lobourer
BY RUTH TAYLOR

II am true labourer: / earn that
/ eat, get that wear, owe no man
hate, envy no mans happiness, glad
Of other mems good"
SO spoke Shakespeare in "As You
Like It."
We are all labourers i'm that, what
ever our work-be it manual or mental
we earn that we eat, get that we
wear
But do we do the other things which
make us true labourers?
Owe no man hate? Are we self
contained enough to bear bad will to-
ward our fellow men? Not to carry
the debt of hatred on our c0nsciences?
Are we above that hatred which solves
no problems but simply blinds with the
red mist of anger--befOre which all
our common sense vanishes, causing
us to act not only against other
peoples interests but against our own?
The pledge of a trade nnionist is not
to discriminate against his brother
members because of class, creed or
color. The pledge of all men who be-
lieye in the brotherhood of Man and
the FatherhOOd of God, no matter
what ritual of faith they follow, is not
to hate their brothers-fOr they too
are the sons of God
Envy no mans happiness? Do we
try to build our Own--nOt cOvet an
oil 80 Nn
phrased it? 'TO cOvet nothing that is
our neighbOrs except his kindness Of
heart, and gentleness Of manners" Did
you ever think how difficult il is to be-
happy alone ?The essence of unionism
is not to spend time wanting what
others have-but working that all may
have. The essence of democracy is rule
by the wish of the majority for happi
ness for ALMA jority and minority
alike
Glad Of other mems good? Are we
not merely not enviOuS of, but truly
glad for, the fortunes of other men?
1t is this spirit that has been respOn-
Sible for whatever progress we have
made as individuals or as a group or
as "A nation. He who is glad for his
neighbor will help redress wrongs. The
whole spirit of the Organized Labor
movement is for all, not for one. This
is the secret of the success of DemOc-
racy For it is based upon the credo
of all faiths, Thou shalt love thy
neighbOr as thy self"
BE true labOurer.

Wisconsin Expands
State Forest Plun
Plan Consists OF Voluntary
agreement BY Producers
Of Timber Products

Chicago ULNS). - The Wisconsin
conservation commission gradually Is
enlarging the acreage Of forest hold
ings In the state This action follows
Il long range plan by the commission
to safeguard forests from wartime ex-
ploitation and to expand forest de.
velOpment, the American Society CT
Planning Officials says.
As part Of the program ~ protect
Wisconsin forests, the state cOnserva-
ton commission set up fOrest-savine
plan about 2 years ago. This program
consisted of voluntary agreements by
producers and users of timber and
forest products.
Under one agreement woOd-using in
dustries and timber operators, buyers
and users of forest products rejected
timber which did not meet certain
specifications according to size.
Lumber operators and producers also
were asked to sign an agreement thai
they would practice adequate forestry
principles i'm their harvesting
In addition to the conservation pre-
gram, the commission has acquired
more forest land. The state now owns
about 225,000 acres. Present holdings
are largely in the Highland state for
est of northeastern Wisconsin, the
Flambeau river state forest in north

The convention received no strike
resolutions from locals 443 of Cleve-

At the suggestion of J. =. Burke, union
president, both were amended to make
the pledge effective 'for the duration

He said the strike was labors great

rendered except during the greatest
national emergency.
The convention decided to admit to

sion fees and the first months dues

Canada, the United States and New

1t was also recommended that all
government restrictions on labor be
withdrawn after the war.

OF CIVILIAN INDUSTRY.
when Germany goes down." the
AFL organ declares, "at least 40 per
cent of war production will be stopped
and these production facilities freed
for much-needed civilian items. Work
ers will be employed in making, civilian
products at prevailing wage rates for
a 4O-hour week, and purchasing power
will begin to drop.
Even If we have full employment
after full recOnversiOn, If wage rates
are not raised there will be only 10!
billion dollars to buy ia to 10 billion
dollars of consumer output.
I'VE should not wait for the recon
version period with its many produc-
tion problems before we modify our
stabilizatiOn policies and Increase wage
rates. That adjustment should be made
now so that labor costs may be in
cluded in reconversion plans and
prices.
"There need be no fear of increased
earnings, for they will go into savings
to purchase requirements and to pro-
vide more comfortable living as pro-
ductiOn facilities are relaxed for
civilian service.
Disastrous Deficit Feared
purchasing power is needed" the
FederatiOnist concludes Ito sustain
production and thereby employment.
Unless wage rates are raised we face
a deficit i'm national income which will
turn us toward depression"
The Federationist stresses that ma
tional income must be maintained at
high levels when peace comes to take
care of the huge war debt.
''Our national debt is so large" it is
declared, that normal postwar rev.
enues must reach new levels. The
burden can be spread more widely if
there is full employment at high rates
of pay. The level of employment will
depend upon the purchasing power
available to buy the products produced
and the services available. If that buy
ing is active enough to keep products
moving out of retail establishments,
high employment will continue"
