Senators 10 Back Ban
On Sole Union Control
OF Welfare Fund
Bipartisan Group Will
Rewrite Amendment to
Exempt Present PIons
BY the Associated Press

A bipartisan group of Senators
pressing for labor disputes legis-
lation agreed today to back a
prohibition against sole union
control of workers welfare funds
to which employers contribute.
Such a ban has been proposed by
Senator Byrd, Democrat, of Vir-
ginia as an amendment to pending
labor legislation. It's supporters
acknowledge it is aimed primarily at
John L. Lewis demand for per
cent payroll levy to finance health
and welfare fund for coal miners.
With the Senate entering its Sec
ond week of debate on labor bills, a
dozen Democrats and Republicans
met in the office of Senator Ball, Re-
publican. of Minnesota in an effort
to work out program all could sup
port.
Will Rewrite Amendment.
Senators Ellender, Democrat. of
louisiana and Taft, Republican, of
Ohio told reporters afterward that
the agreement to back Senator
Byrd's proposal was about all that
was accomplished.
They said it was agreed that Sem
ator Byrd's amendment should be
rewritten to permit operation of
present welfare funds for the dura-
tion of existing contracts.
Meanwhile, Senator George, Dem
ocrat, of Georgia demanded today
that the Senate stay in continuous
day and night session until it passes
labor disputes bill.
Critical of what he termed Presi-
dent Truman's failure to recon-
mend balanced" legislation, the
Georgia lawmaker said he fears the
threat of a general strike unless
current controversies involving coal
and the railroad are settled.
With the Senate beginning its
second week of debate on pending
proposals, Senator George told a
reporter:
THE President ought to ask the
Senate to stay in continuous day
and night sessions until we get some
action in this crisis. It's not too
late, if we have sympathetic execu-
tive support, for Congress to do
something. But if it is to be ef-
fective we must have that kind of
presidential assistance"
Recommendations Lacking.
Senator George contended that
Mr.. Truman has failed to say what
legislation he is willing to support
in the present strike crisis beyond
making a recommendation for es-
tablishment of fact-fnding boards
such as have been created in some
instances by executive order.
Senator George criticized those
he said are engaged in futile talk
in an effort to prevent Senate ac-
tion now on labor disputes measures
They say that Congress can't
do anything effective about the
present strikes and shouldn't pass
any bill while crisis of this kind

reau said such a check likely
would be due to a mechanical
error, and the Albany Office of
the bureau would be asked to

LIBERTY, Mo-. May 20.-Presi-
dent Truman today urged the
people of the United States to
go to work "for the peace of the
world and the strengthening of
their own country"
Speaking extemporaneously after
receiving the honorary degree of
doctor of laws at William Jewell
College here, the President recalled
that on We day and VI day he
had admonished the people to work,
work, work." and added that he
wished the country would heed that
advice today.
The country needs followers, as
we'll as leaders, the President said,
stressing that leadership alone is
not enough.
Drawing an analogy in the news
paper industry, the President
pointed to reporters working in the
press section and said that they
rather than the columnists were
necessary to get out a paper.
Somebody has to sit in the front
row and do the work" he said
That is true in Congress, true on
the farm, true in the coal mines and
true in the railroads.
TOO Many Quarterbacks.
There are too many captains and
quarterbacks at large, especially
the Monday morning quarterbacks, -
the President added.
The United States will pursue the
cause of peace with all its might,

tions will be success" he added,

Jones of Grand View, home of the
Presidents mother, Mrs. Martha

accident. Young Jones pursued his
studies by having fellow students
read to him. The President joined
in the applause which greeted the
presentation of the boy for his
diploma, and again when Jones was
announced as the winner of one OF

when fully aware of these de-
fects, will not approve the bill.
1--WE believe this bill accentuates
the differences between the serv-
ices" the chairmen said. Its en-
actment would not heal the breach
which now exists.
Instead, 1t would widen the
breach since naval officers are firm
ly convinced, as a result of their
recent war experiences, that naval
aviation and amphibious operations
played great part in winning the
war. They are also convinced that
in the forseeable future naval avia-

a major role in preventing any po-
tential enemy from bringing war

1etters to the RICH frequently
reveal parents concern over the
emotional lives of their children
the children are becoming thumb
suckers, Sufferers, and so forth, and
the parents want to know what to
do about it. This article, and sew
eral subsequent ones, will deal with
the business of helping children
gain emotional control, through a
better understanding of the makeup
of children, and suggestions as to
wise handling of problems when
they arise.
One of the things that compli-
Gates our bringing up of children is
that they have FEELINGS. Per-
haps when We are out for a walk,
a big dog playfully jumps at little
Johnny, and we tell him the dog
wants to play and won't hurt him
but he screams with FEAR. Or we
tell Jim to let Tom ride his tricycle..
But Jim wants to keep on riding
himself. And if we insist, he may
resist strenuouSly and show anger
at our interference. Children, you
Zee, have feelings.
Properly guided, emotions have a
useful part to play. But havoc re-
suits when they are out of control.
To protect their children's future
happiness, parents should realize the
grave importance of helping chill
dren form good emotional habits.
GIVEN A BACKGROUND OF
GOOD TRAINING, CHILDREN
HAVE A REMARKABLE CA
PACITY FOR MAKING ADJUST
MENTS.
We cannot separate what we
want to teach a child from his
FEELINGS about what We want
him to learn. THE WAY WE GO
ABOUT TRAINING WILL BE ALL
IMPORTANT. Whether it is eat
ing or sleeping or playing, We have
to remember that it is not our in

lterest in the habit that is going to
be effective, but the child's re-
action.
The child's emotional makeup
is stimulated by the things that
happen to him. If he gets his own
way by an emotional scene he may
resort to this behavior over and
over again. If baby slips IN his
bath and swallows water he may
be afraid for long time OF being
put into the tub.
CHILDREN ARE NOT BORN
WITH SPECIFIC FEARS AND
LOVES AND HATES. AS they grow,
4 however. they do have unpleasant
experiences that cause fear, and
they do begin to have such pleasant
experiences with people that feel
ings of love develop.
Actually emotion is useful, for 1t
is associated with changes in the
body that give US the additional
energy needed to meet difficulties.
But when emotion becomes SO
strong as to prevent action-when
the child is "paralyzed" by fright
or so angry he cant see straight"
it is an enemy A child who is so
upset by seeing a car come straight
at him that he cannot think what
to do is in great danger. Because
children have not had experience
in handling upsetting situations
we must protect them as much as
we can from coming up against
things that floor them. If their
problems are not too big to solve
successfully a good share of the
time they stand better change Of
learning to handle them well and
thus of gaining confidence in their
ability to meet tougher problems.
If we did not, for example, pro-
tect little children from many
things that might frighten them
they might suffer from many un-
necessary and damaging fears.
