AS Hamlet was saying one night,

dreamt of in your philosophy and
mine. We do not wish the follow
ing construed as blanket indorse-
ment of all fortune tellerS, crystal
gazers, palmistS, mind readers and
assorted seers, because there are
tricks to every trade, including this
mystic one as it is practiced in
night clubs The fellow who an
swers the question you write on

seeing the question, even If he seems
not to at the moment. But there
is story We should tell you about
Tana, handsome blond who sits
in candle-lit gloom at your table,
examines your palm, looks deep in
your eyes and tells you amazing
things about your past, present and
future.
Tana claims psychic powers, the
presence of which in the human
scheme seems to be debatable.
There are those who scoff and
there are others, including some
Duke University professors, who
have proved to their own and a lot
of other peoples satisfaction that
there is such a thing as extra
sensory perception. Without join
ing that argument, we can tell
you that Tana sat down at table

very bad idea for the country.
Yet Mr.. Ludwig Teller would have been Mortified if
someone had suggested that the ronbound double rveted
closed shop which the lawyer have these days also bad
idea Mr. Teller believes firmly in the closed shop for law
yer Probably he also believes in the closed shop for DOCTORS
dentists engineers and others But not for people
who sweat
We disagree with Mr. Teller of We believe the
closed shop good both for industry and the public well
for Labor We think the closed shop all right for the
lawyers the doctors and all the rest We would not dstb

POOR PEGLER

WESTBROOK, the poisonpen boy is not doing too well
" these days. He is slppng-and badly-and we think
that perhaps we know why.
Peger pulled off of the biggest newspaper exposes
in history when his reporting instrumental in seeing that
Brown and Boff the Hollywood extotion experts went to

labor certainly should thank him for laying low couple of
characters who extortng millions of dollars.
But Westbrook didn't tell the whole truth about
these unsavory individuals The court which sentenced Brown
and Bo pointed out that in spite of the fact that they
stealing from Others they did good job for the rank
and file membership of their union.
The poson-pen boy took off the Brown-Biof issue
and proceeded to work other unions He tried
that all union leaders crooks and cheats and for while
the public seemed perfectly willing to swallow this CUFF Peg
became quite guy his salary went up and he alegedy
became greater factor in moulding public opinion.
The boy off to good start but he lost his original

The public went along for some time 1t perfectly
