WASHINGTON. June . - A
w fair-trade-praCuCeS bill for
labor (RiChberg) IS supposed 10
lie around Congress until the
coming expected wave of union
strikes generates an irresistible
demand for its adoption-then
ii, or something like it is passed.
Such delay may sound like a
back-end way 10 handle an eN-
pected national crisis. because
the bill proposes TO avert the
strikes by providing machinery
for lust settlements, not only IN
the public interest. but IN the
long range interest of the Unions.
Yet YOU can see what is begin
ming TO happen 10 the legisla-
tion in the probable absence OF
Alabama Senator Lister Hi
from the list of sponsors.
THIS was supposed TO be a
Il four-senator bill, introduced
by two Democrats and two Re
publiCanS; in fact the same ones
who sponsored the declaration
of senatorial peace principles,
Ball, Burton, HatCh-and Hill.
But on this Hill says he
was lust too busy TO fill out
the B2H2 leadership. so IT be-
came B2H1. Most people think
the real reason is that the CIO
was instrumental IN Hills re-
cent reelection.
Basically, the bill would re-
quire arbitrary unions TO mod
crate their "the public be
damned policy. Descriptions of
public service, such as in the
Fifth Avenue bus showdown in
New York recently. where the
drivers Just decided to run an
hour -sa-4ate,-aS-W Well-aS
strikes in public utilities, milk
deliveries, etc. would be pre-
vented by judicial compulsory
arbitration.
This is in the sound interest

spicuous public-be-damned pol

TIE bill was not written by
Il manufacturers or employers,
but by an old union lawyer,
Donald Richberg, who composed
the most successful -lahar-laW
eyer enaeted-the Rail~aS=Lahef
Act.
The senatorial sponsors are
not anti-labor people either,
but somewhat left-leaning The
way, they described their gen
eraT purposes is this.
They would break up the
competitive handling of labor
through various government
agencies, and put all concilia-
ton and mediation activities IN
a new five-man board.
A second board of three
would handle complaints OF
unfair practices by labor or
employer, not just labor alone,
as now.

IN YOUR paper of June Is,

There are approximately
$1,000 licensed amateur radio
operators in the United States.
About half of them are IN the

Job, one which no other type OF

In fact the war effort would
have been held up for year or

been available al the start OF

These amateurs have called
themselves Hams j. since the

The word Ham is term af-
fectionately and proudly used
by every amateur radio operator
in this country tand the WoridT.
This use of the word Ham
does not refer 10 or imply the
ordinary definition cheap or of
poor quality as is sometimes
assumed by the uniformed, or
outsider.
The American Radio Relay

amateur operators define the
term Ham as "a person inter

cenSed to operate and or own a

Therefore -aNldenLthat
your article referring 10 the

European
Ivy T ests
BY ISABEL FUCKER
Detroit Times Garden Editor

THIS IS report of the test
ing of countless European ivies
in the Missouri Botanical Gar
den, that has resulted in the
introduction of two ivies, found
suited by their natural habitat
10 the cold winters, hot, dry
summers Of the Middle West.
The first is 10 be called MIG,
Romania, from the introducer
and from its country Of origin.
The second is named MBG Bull
garia in the same manner.
- DF. Edgar Anderson, who col
lected the European ivies. had
the idea that some part OF the
European continent must GER
tainly have a climate similar 10
that Of the Middle West.
He found this section in Ro-
mania, Bulgaria and YugoSlavia,
visiting them in 1884 and taking
cuttings and seeds OF four ever
greens: holly, ivy, yew and box.
Hardy in ST. Louis
The results OF testing the
ivles over 9 years have shown
that they are completely hardy
IN 81. Louis, IN the city as we'll
as IN the country, bat that in
the very coldcSt winters they
are not completely evergreen.
II the temperature IS very low
and there IS no snow cover they
lose their leaves IN January or
February, but vines and leaf
buds are uninlurcd and the vines
arc fuii of foliage again as soon
as spring arrives In fact the
speed with which they acquire
new leaves is one of the most
remarkable things about them.
Have Larger Looves
Otherwise. the new ivieS look
just about like any other ivy.
except that their leaves are
slightly larger, especially when
grown in rich soil. This is par
ticularly true OF the Bulgarian
variety. This grows leaves the
size OF a sugar-maple If given
the chance.
II seems 10 me that any ivy
that will live through the awful
heat or ST. Louis summers and
still stand the winter cold
should be able 20 stand the
slight difference in climate and
live in Michigan, too.

Dorothy Dix Says

Dear Miss Dix: I am engaged
to a Young man, but find that mar
riage Is most unattractive prop
osition to me, for I hold no illusions
about it. I am freedom loving
soul and I just hate the idea of
staying home cooking when I would
like to be out playing golf. I love
dancing and fishing and tennis, but
see this all shot to pieces with the
advent of the first baby. When a
girl gets married she has to give
up SO much.
Do you know anything about mar
rage that would enhance 1t in my
eyes and thus change my state of
mind? MYRNA.
Answer-It is true that matrimony
is no picnic, but after all it isn't
as bad as it is painted When we
see the number of divorces and so
many wives and husbands fighting
together like the Kilkenny cats it
does seem that marriage is a fail
ure and the surest way man and
woman can take to bring misery
upon themselves, but just remember
it is only the unhappy marriage we
hear about. 1t is only the divorces
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1945-05-09

that get on the front page of the
newspapers.
OF course, getting married is the
greatest gamble on earth, because
when you do it you stake every
thing you have in life on the out
come. But it is because when you
do win out the reward Is so great
that men and women continue to
plunge on in spite of the failures
they see all about them.
For there is no disputing the fact
that there are no other people so
happy as those who are happily
married. To love and to be loved
Is a necessity of the human heart,
and lacking love we go hungering
and thirsting for the bread of life
on which to feed our souls. No love
is SO strong and enduring as this
welded love of man and a wom-
an who have found their mates, and
who give each other a devotion that
never falters, a companionship that
never wearieS.
AS for your dreading marriage
because you will have to give up
your outdoor sports and dancing,
that is an unfounded fear, as you
