MODERN PAPER BAG SURVIVES NIAGARA

The extraordinary strength, dur ability, and waterproofness which may be built into heavy-dutv null tiwall paper shipping sacks through contributions of the chem ical industry were never more dramatically demonstrated than on Sept. 12, 1945.
 Bags filled with 50 lbs of flour were launched half mile above Niagara Falls, carried by the cur rent to the center of the "horse- shoe," and plummeted 167 feet to the treacherous waters below.
 Seven and a half hours later they were recovered intact and in condition to deliver contents in a standard commercial shipment, thoroughly protecting their con- tents.
 These bags, manufactured by the Bemis Bro. Bag Co.,, were fab r'cated with kraft paper treated with melamine resin to provide high wet strength Both the top and bottom ends were sealed wa tertight by Aquatex closure, de- veloped by Bemis during the war.
 The tests were conducted by William Red Hill, Jr., who nav igated the Upper and Lower Rap ids and giant whirlpool of the Mi agara River in steel barrel, July 8, 1945, in the record time of 8 hours, says Chemical and Engi- neering News.

WASHINGTON - (P) - When the American Federation of Labor welcomed John l.. Lewis back into the family last month, group of labor leaders in Illinois uttered a cry of helpless rage.
 These were the men of the Pro- gresSive Mine Workers, an anti Lewis union which has been affili- ated with the AFL for eight years.
 The United Mine Workers, bossed by Lewis, claim 600,0O0 members. The Progressive claim from 35,000 to 10000 members, mainly in Illinois. The running

the powerful AFL executive coun- cil, on which the Progressives are not represented.
 They could stay in the AFL and carry their fight into court on the ground that the re-affiliation of the United Mine Workers was a violation of the AFL constitution and deprived the Progressives of their rights.
 This constitution says the AFL shall not grant charter to any union Eff the jurisdiction claimed is trespass on the jurisdiction of existing affiliated unions, without the written consent of sue h unions."

on the toes of a union of only 35,OOO?
 They also say the Progressives' union was chartered on the claim that it could become a national union, but it failed
 On the legal side, Joseph A. Padway, AFL general counsel, says the courts have ruled that the AFL has the power to settle its own questions of affiliations and jurisdictions.
 He cites a 1941 decision by the U. S. Court of Appeals for the Dis trict of Columbia. This decision upheld the AFL, which had de- cided in favor of the Teamsters' Union in a jurisdictional quarrel with the Brewery Workers Union.
 That case was not exactly like the present one, but Padway takes the position that the same legal principles apply.

CAP PLIERS HAVE PERMANENT STATUS BEE IN THEIR BONNET

WASHINGTON -I Is the Civil Air Patrol going to become a war casualty?
 There are few, if any, civilian organizations which made such a contribution to the war effort as CAP. Over-age pilots, flying their own little planes, patrolled the coast.
 They lowed targets for gunnery practice With mock air raids, they showed many cities how real that danger could be. Their rescue flights to spot downed planes, overdue ships, and to scout floods are other disasters would fill a volume.
 Tn addition, the CAP cadet corps trained thousands of under age youngsters in the elements of preflight education for work both in the air and on the ground.
 So important was CAP, that the Army Air Forces took it over Now, on March 31, the AAF is go- ing the cut it loose again. Some promises of help have been made, but unless CAP can find a way of financing its local units and main taining it's national organization, it will disappear, or at least be- come disintegrated group of state organizations, strong in some states perhaps, but virtually inac- tive in others.
 A couple of weeks ago Gen. Carl Spaatz, acting commanding officer of the AAF, promised he would do what he could to help CAP if it become a federally char tered non-profit membership or ganization.

warfare between the two unions on the coal-dusty soil of Illinois has been one of the fiercest and bloodiest struggles in the history of organized labor.
 In terms of that struggle, what is the meaning of this new devel- opment-the return of the United Mine Workers to the AFL?
 First-It deals a blow to the Progressives and is bound to give encouragement to the UNIV locals in Illinois in their efforts to ex- pand. However, the AFL has not taken away from the Progressives any of the contracts they hold with coal companies.
 Second-It changes - at least temporarily-the nature of the ri- valry. Now, for the first time since the Progressives were found- ed in 1882 as an anti-Lewis off shoot of the UNIV, both unions are under the same roof, in the AFL. Up to now, their struggle has been a case of "dual union- ism"-two unions in the same field, existing side by side with no superior body to decide their quarrels. Now, technically, it be- comes a "jurisdictional dispute since the AFL has the power to step in.
 Third-The new development could lead to a period of fresh strife in Illinois, or it could speed final settlement of the long war. The outcome depends partly on what the Progressives do next.
 The Progressives have called a convention for February 25 to de- eide their course of action.
 There are several things the Progressives could do. They could withdraw from the AFL and carry on the fight as an independent union, as they did from 1882 to 1888. Or they could apply for af- filiation with the CIO.
 Or they could stay in the AFL and seek whatever protection they could get from the AFL leader ship. But Lewis is a tough man to fight, and he now is member of

The obvious fact is that the UAW-CIO has gone beyond its rights
under the law-and is reaching not for information but for new
power-NOT FOR "A LOOK AT PAST FIGURES. BUT FOR THE
POWER TO SIT IN ON FoREcAsTING AND PLANNING THE

A look at the books" is a clever catch phrase intended as an
opening wedge whereby Unions hope to pry their way into the
whole field of management.
1t leads surely to the day when Union bosses. under threat of
strike, will demand the right to tell what we can make, when we
can make il, where we can make it, and how much we must
charge you-all with an eye on what labor can take out of the
business, rather than on the value that goes into the product.

do it to every business in this land of ours.
