LEWIS WELFARE FUND

As Congress focuses on strike
control legislation, and the UNI.
W. and the operators press neeo-
tiations to meet the Presidents
deadline, John L. Lewis's vel
fare fund again steps into the
foreground. Mr.. Truman is re-
ported to have won an agree
ment "in principle" on a fund to
be ased on pay rolls and admin
istered by a triportite board, with
the public represented. But there
are already two bills before Con-
gress which would outlaw any
such funds supported by levies
on production or pay rolls,
a fund even approaching the
size suggested by Mr., Lewis. ae-
cumulated by employers contri-
buttons and turned over to the
U. M. w. to administer at will. is
unthinkable. 1t is unthinkable
not simply because the UNIV.
happens to be the union involved
and John L. Lewis its president
although the extent Of Mr..
Lewis's power gives added rea-
son. 1t would be poor public poll
cy to countenance such a setup
with any union, because it would
help to render union leadership
independent of the financial sup
port Of its membership.
But welfare fund related to
the number of workers covered
as determined BY the pay rolls
and 80 administered as to leave
no doubt that its use would truly
fulfill its purpose. would be some
thing else altogether. Nor is the
idea new or revolutionary. The
AmaIgamated Clothing Workers
are said to have a life insurance
and retirement fund to which
employers contribute S per cent
Of weekly pay rolls. The Interna-
tional Ladies' Garment Workers.
the Textile Workers, and t b @
Shipbuilder's Union are also re-
ported having similar funds &.
nanced by employer contribu-
tion5.
1t would hardly seem wise to
enact legislation denying such
projections to coal miners. Coal
mining is an extremely hazard
GUS occupation. Casualties a r e
many, and they are seriously |
out of proportion to their fre-7
quency. Over the years, employ
ment in the bituminous mines
mas been depressingly irregular.
Not all coal mining States compel
compensation coverage, and al
most nowhere is the coverage
adequate.
1t would be far better for Con-
gress to recognize the need for
self-insurance against occupation
al hazards by industry and labor, |
and to concentrate on throwing |
legal safeguards around the ad-
ministration of the funds, than |
to discourage such efforts alto
gether.
The whole coal dispute has pre-
sented a strange paradox: de-

The Atomic Bomb Test
CNew York Times

The greatest peacetime test of instrument of war in history will take place some time in May at Bikini Atol in the isolated Marshall Islands in the Central Pacific when atomic bomb similar to that used against Nagasaki is exploded over an anchored armada of obsolete United vessels and three captured enemy ships Its purpose is to test the eff ficacy of this and most frightening of modern weapons against arnor-pated men-of-war. It will be the greatest experiment in mass destruction of vessels ever carried out and the expensive test ever made just how many hundreds of millions of dollars it will cost has not been estimated.
 The factor or cost however, is the least important consideration surrounding the experiment. the destructive effect great some expect and II It is effective over wide enough area, it may bring revolution in cur concept of warfare and naval power Certainly it would foolish to build great fleet of surface vessels along present designs if they could be smashed in wholesale lots by one or two atomic bombs It would be just as foolish to scrap hrriedly the worlds finest fleet if the atomic bomb as presently constituted, has a limited destructive power against floating targets or small destructive radius
 It is to answer these questions that the tests are being held and held after the end of the war The results will be of paramount interest to the civilian population as well to the military men. It will be or equal interest to those countries that do not yet have the secret of the bomb It is therefore hardly under standabe why there should be any questionas there seems to be-about permitting observers from other nations to witness the experiment Certainly at least
  Council which will have tue task of maintaining order in the world should witness test that will help determine what character international police force to maintain peace should They also need to know whether batteships are obsolete by first-hand observation not secondhand report
 This need not compromise the decision of the limited States Britain and Canada to withhold the manufacturing secret of the bomb until adequate in ternatonal controls for the of atomic energy have been provided Exploding the bomb is one thing: manufacturing it. another. The benefits of making the test an open one far the military effects are concerned would seem to be self-evident. For one thing it would show that we considered this new weapon matter of world responsibility, not just our own For another it might have a saut2Ty effect to recruit as actual observers of the explosion men who will have the collective responsibility for keeping the peace of the world task which may mean, primarily, control of the atomic bomb In the flash of mannade lightning the lesson might be read by dsbeeVers that in world in which the atomic bomb exists no nation can be sufficient unto itself The sight of an atomic bomb explosion might be convincing than the oratory at a hundred international conferences.

BUTTER BLACK MARKET

The Office of International Trade, now under the Commerce Department, is planning to ask U. $. Customs officials to investigate some strange Shenanigans in the resale of butter this country has been exporting to Mexico.
 Despite the serious butter short age, which has caused the Ameri- can housewife to turn to substi- tutes and jam for her table, we sent $500 pounds of butter to Mex ico in the last quarter of l945
 Some of this is now winding ur at Tiajuana. the Mexican resort town across the border from San Diego, where the butter is beine sold to American tourists for the fabulous price of SIPS pound.
 Under export price ceilings, en- forced by the OPA and the De- partnent of Commerce, this same butter was sold to Mexican dealers at from 47 to 49 cents pound The price varies a couple of cents a pound, depending on the type ot packaging.
 In other words, we are now buy

SAVINGS CONTINUE

We're aereeably surprised frankly, to see that January Savings Bond sales aggregated se5s0oOoOo or almost nine-tenths much as the total of War Bonds sold the preceding January, while We were still at war The sale of Bonds the type purchased by individuals ran about 30 per cent of the January 1e45. volume.
 The figures are contrary to popular impression, and apparently outran considerably the expectations of the Treasury Savings Bond Division.
 They mean that the American public is continuing the thrift habit acquired in wartime and is not idly throwing money away Clearly people are waiting for homes cars and other articles of consumer goods to become plentiful again before spending their money freely There are exceptions to be noted on every hand but the Treasury bond figures are persuasive proof that the great backlog of American purchasing power is still growing and is not being disspated foolishly
 In this connection it might be well to reiterate the warning of responsible businessmen and indus triasts against the sharpsters and confidence men who are undertaking-and in some cases succeeding v-ith-a harvest of other peoples wartime savings. The Better Business Bureau offers the public free

wire to the Chicago Tribune, which put sleuths to work in Washington. The Tribune reported that the stallion was a gift to Fall from publisher Edward B. M> Lean.
 Anderson, however, re m Il d skeptical, and arranged for some further checking. A reporter who cultivated the freight agent at Three Rivers, N M., got a chance 10 look over recent freight receipts, which showed that Falls new $25, GOO stallion had come, $1,133 pre- paid, from the Rancocas racing stables in New Jersey. These stables are owned by Harry F. Sinclair.
 Carl Magee placed this informa- ton before the late Senator Thom- as J. Walsh of Montana, who then started the famous Senate investi- gation of the entire Teapot Dome oil scandal

HARRY HOPKINS PROBE

Harry Hopkins didn't know it, but just before his death there was move to inject him into the Pearl Harbor probe.
 Certain influential Republicans approached Representative Bertrand Gearhart of California, COP member of the Congressional Pearl Harbor Committee, alleging that Hopkins had diverted 200 planes, slated to be shipped to Pearl liar bor, to Great Britain just before Ehe Jap attack.
 Tn view of our weakened defens- es in the Pacific, this Hopkins deal should get a thorough investiga- tion,7 Gearharts colleagues told him. Those planes might have turned the tide at Pearl Harbor." !"
 However, the Californian flatly rejected the proposal.
 Tt smacks too much of playing politics. he declared. Maybe you can get someone else to carry the ball on this, but I'm not going to make any accusations against Har- ry Hopkins
 Note-If it is true that Hopkins did divert the planes to England at least they were not destroyed on the ground as were all other planes at Hickam Field which were caught lined up in neat rows, when the Japs attacked.

sale of Government owned light metal plants, now idle in his area, to private operators as another means of increasing employment. Two idle plants in question are the Aluminium Rolling Mill and the Aluminium Ingot Companies at Spokane, operated by ALCOA dur ing the war Henry Kaiser wants to buy the former for the produc- ton of alumirum- built automobiles and pre-f fabri2ated housing,
 Wallgren told Truman that the lumber situation has been aggra- vated by neat little device of certain big lumber outfits, includ- ing the Weyerhauser interests, which. calculated or otherwise, has been stifling competition. Under the Washington Constitution, the State Government must sell tim Der to the highest bidder, but some big outfits have been bidding over the price ceilings. This causes all bids to be thrown out.
 The President said he would talk to the REC about the plants, but suggested that Wallgren thrash out his lumber price problems with price control boss Chester Bowles.

FRANCO SPAIN IN
 FOR ANOTHER SLAP

WASHINGTON, Feb. 20.-Franco Spain is due for another American diplomatic slap because of her war time dealings with Hitler.
 Secretary of State Byrnes served advance notice of this at his news conference when he disclosed that the American government intended to make public evidence on the subject culled from Nazi docu- ments.
 American government officials concerned with Spain doubted whether the United States would issue the Nazi documents in for nal Blue Book" similar to the one released last week on Argentine collaboration with the Reich.
 They said it might be best mere ly to make embarrassing Nazi doc uments public without any com ment.

TEAPOT DOME sLEuTH

Harold Ickes. chief protector of the Nations oil, is now out of the picture but. although most people don't know it, the Truman Cabinet still contains a member responsible for digging out the biggest oil scandal of the centurv-Teapot Dome. He is Secretary of Agyicdl- rure Clinton Anderson.
 Anderson vas once 9 reporter cn the Albuouerqu7. N M. Journal. His publisher, the late Carl Magee, had led a battle against the fores- try and public lands policies of Pres.denr Farding's Secretary of the Inte-ior, Albert Fall Cattle, not oil, was the original motive be- hind his crusade, due to the fact that cattlemen were being granted the use of State lands for grazing at ridiculously low rate.
 The Journal, therefore, was on the lookout for information about Fall, whose home was a large
 
 ranch at Three Rivers, N. M.
 One day an old cowboy rode to the Albuquerque Journal offices and asked to talk to Anderson He had quit the Fall ranch just a few days earlier and gave Ander- son an earful about it's operations The future Secretary of Agricul- ture listened. but was beginning tc think he was wasting his time wher the cowboy mentioned that Fal lad just received new stallion worths about s25,ooo,
 Some people would have passed this by. But Anderson was smarr enough to recall that Carl Magee after a visit to the Fall rancf some months earlier, had notec that Fall appeared to be in moder- ate circumstances. So Anderson vent to Magee, asked if he knew any reason why Fall should spenc s25, GOO for a stallion just a few months after becoming Secretary of the Interior, and then sent 2
