PETRILLo DOESN'T LEARN

Mr.. James G.. Petrillo, head OF the
American Federation of Musicians, has not
learned much from the recent action OF
Congress.
He announces that members of the
Federation will not be permitted to work
n television until an indefinite date in the
future after the union has determined the
effect of television upon present-day
radio.
He pointed out that use of live"
musicians was denied the television in
dustry last year and television broadcast
ers agree that the stand of the union will
refard the immediate development Of
R.deo programs The union has entered
into am agreement with Hollywood pro-
ducers that films containing music will not
be used in television and reiterates its
stand against permitting standard radio
programs containing music to be presented
simultaneously on standard broadcast
bands and frequency meditation outlets.
This means that if a station broadcasts on
both bands, it will have to have double
crews 81 musicians.
The principle champloned by Mr..
Peirillo and his union seems to be that the
world owes the musicians living and that
there can be no progress along any line
until that living is guaranteed. 1t not only
requires the employment of unnecessary

in the long run. we doubt if the unions can
pot these principles over and levy such a
toll upon the public.

GIVE THE YOUTH A CHANCE

Today, as has been the case since our
Nations birth, America is confronted with
the threat of poisoning from within. Sub
versive groups are again using the Ameri-
can freedoms as means to un-American
ends.
The striking fact here is that the
majority of those involved in subversiye
activities are American-born men and
women. Obviously, somewhere in the
growth from childhood to manhood these
people soured on the ideals and creed of
their country. 8atJ Ht4f tlI5t s a
Why? One doesn't by nature bite the
hand that feeds him.
Medical science has invented serums
to prevent disease before disease can
start. That's common sense. The individual
adult can join in a similar common sense
canism.
Take a leaf from The American
Iegions book. The Legion has long fol-
lowed theory of educating youth in the
value and practieability OF good American
ism. More than 100000 boys have learn
ed to be just winners and just losers
through participation in the Legion Junior
Baseball leagues. More than 100000 high
schoolers have prepared and delivered
addresses on the United States constitu4
ton in the Legion's national oratorical
contests. Another 100000 have learned
and applied the principles of democratic
government at Boys State programs held
annually by the Legion s#l
The idea is simple The youngsters,
exposed to the practice of good citizenship
while his mind is in the questioning,
spongy stage, develops enthusiasm for his
own privileges and duties as citizen This
enthusiasm is a serum against un-Ameri-
canism. 1t is bulwark against the germ of
radicalism those opponents the youth will
encounter for the first time in college or
at work. 1t is the light that will show him
the evils behind the patriotic front of sub
versive groups.
Give the youth a chance to look be-
fore he leaps. The community can do this
as we'll as The American Legion by spon-
soring youth activities on its own Parents,
especially, can do this by introducing
children in the home to the meaning of
Americanism. Un-Americanism thrives on
ignorance and doubt. 1t dies when it meets
confident, intelligent faith in America

PARADE IN TRIESTE

The 100000 inhabitants of Trieste
turned out recently to view a British
American parade, concentrating the
.lrt anniversary of the surrender of Ger
man armies In Italy.
Press dispatches say that for three
ena one-half hours. Allied infantry, motor
lzed units tanks and guns rolled past the
reviewing stand. There may be more to

with Augoslavia claiming the famous port
and Tire ltalians equally as anxious to re-
iaiu H. The British and Americans, it
seems, are inclined to support the Italian
claims and Russia is out in the open to
haek Marshal Tito.
The situation became so tense a few
months ago that il was reported that
faEosiavian forces were moving to the
border OF the zone occupied by Allied
forces and there were even hints of a
coup d'etat which might precipitate SER
laas fighting.

Agitated by these thoughts, he
could only bid the unfortunate
Rowena be comforted. But in this
task of consolation De Bracy was
interrupted by the horn, "hoarse-
winded blowing far and keen"
which had at the same time
alarmed the other inmates of the
castle, and interrupted their sew
eral plans of avarice and of Ii
cence. OF them all, perhaps, De
Bracy least regretted the inter
ruptfon; for his conference with
the Lady Rowena had arrived at a
point where he found it equally
difficult to prosecute or to resign
his enterprise.

THE apartment to which the
L Lady Rowena had been intro
duced was fitted up with some
rude attempts at ornament and
magnifcence, and her being
placed there might be consid-
cred as a peculiar mark of re-
Spect not offered to the other
prisoners. Here she was left to
mediate upon her fate, until the
actors in this nefarious drama
had arranged the several parts
which each of them was to per-
form.
It was about the hour of noon,
when De Bracy, for whose adj
vantage the expedition had been
first planned, appeared to prose-
cute his views upon the hand and
possessions of the Lady Rowena.

his velvet bonnet but Rowena

''Salus Populi, Suprema Lex''
(The Denver PoSt)

JOHN L. LEWIS cOntemptuOuS indifference to the welfare of millions has brought bewildered silence from labor's friends in Congress- Liberal Republicans and Democrats who have been counted upon to steer labor reform legislation into moderate channels have found themselves tongue-tled.
 With paralysis spreading through industry, illness and discomfort threatening millions of families schools closed and hospitals alarmed for the safety of patients all because of the egocentric stubbornneSS of there little for labors liberal friends to say Their customary finger-shakng against the dangers of inter- fering with free collective bargaining would be empty and foolish It has been revealed the counsel of sui eide
 This is not collective bargaining witnessing today It is extortion with 14O million hostages
 The economics of mining and the merits of the min CTS demands have influence the settlement John L. Lewis seeks to obtain What he wins will be the som of our families.
 There is rule of law which transcends the rights of any minority group. In Latin, the ancient legal lang uage, is expressed, Salus populi supreme lex"the "wefare of the people is the highest law"
 Those words express the very basis of government They embrace in one simple rule the philosophy which enables men to live in peaceable democratic society," Without this principle there can be only anarchy die tatorshp That abyss is the logical end toward which John L. Lewis is pushing the nation.
 There must be mstaking the nature of this crisis The republic is threatened never before. Even the issues of the Civil touched nothing fundamental the question facing us-the power of the nation to protect the whole people,
 In the face of this threat the congressional apos ties of goeasy donothng policy toward labor must be undergoing wholesome revision of ideas. Certainly Congress may longer mistake the foremost require ment of labor reform which is safeguarding the public from the terrorism of monopoliStic labor.
 Congress has long asserted the police power of the tion to regulate business in the public interest That same power must be asserted over labor
