Bishop Oman Backs
Planned Parenfhood
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Jan. 24.--Bishop q.
Bromley Oman, president of the
Federal Council Of Churches Of
Christ in America. said last night
that for a woman to bear q child
in each of her child bearing years is
both unjust to the mother and the
child and in the long run to society .
"It is a truer expression OF respect
for personality to plan the coming Of
children" the Methodist cleric said
in addressing the 25th anniversary
dinner of the Planned Parenthood
Federation of America.
ITO refuse the means science
makes available for this high pur-
pose Is sinful and akin to the OBJ
scurantism that would refuse anaes-
thesia to a woman in travail, because
Eve plucked an apple from a pri-
meval tree" the bishop declared.
Bishop Oman said "the attack or
planned parenthood Is often phrasec
in patriotic or religious terms. It Il
well to note that dictators called fol
large families and the appeal wa.
couched in the noble diction OF lovs
for country. The truth is these mad.
men wanted cannon-f fodder.
mo group, whether political, socia
or ecclesiastical, should be allowet
to hide its true purpose in mora
platitude, when the real objective !.
to breed itself into a majority" ths
biShop said.

Another Bill Real Target

"It is rather clearly recognized here
that the gentlemen are filibustering
against this bill mainly to prejudice
the chances of another pending bill
they really fear. This is the bill which
would compel the gentlemen to face
free election in the future, thrice
passed in the House, thrice-approved
by the Senate Judiciary Committee
and ready again for Senate vote.
"Just as the Nazis whipped up Ger
man wrath against the Jews in order
to switch the finished product against
the world, the filibusterers hope by
tanning up passions over FEPC to
switch this emotional fog to their sal
vation when the antipoll tax bill ap-
pears.
"If it is any consolation to the vote
less people Of Washington, the scene
on the Senate floor is not more dis
gusting to them than to the voteless
millions of the state of Tennessee.
We here, too, would like to try democ-
racy-and to see majority rule re-
spected in the halls of the Nations
Legislature"

telegram to all members of the
House urging it's defeat.
The telegram charged that the
House Rules Committee had given
labor a raw deal by railroading
through this bill, although no public
hearings were held on it and no op-
portunity was given to representa-
tives of labor, industry or the govern
ment to express their views.
Mr.. Green warned that the Case
bill would revive the hated doctrine
of conspiracy against workers, SUBJ
ject labor once again to government
by court injunction, and expose unions
to destructive damage suits.
''This bill will not bring peace and
harmony in industrial relations" Mr..
Green declared in the telegram, ''but
on the contrary will cause confusion,
chaos, injustice and disrupted indus
trial relations"
Mr.. Green said the AFL will fight
this legislation to the limit and will
call on all it's state and local subordi-
nate bodies to join in the drive to
prevent it's adoption.
Summing up the accomplishments
of the council meeting, Mr.. Green
said it had pointed the way to a
united labor movement in America
drafted policies for the economic bet
terment of the nation and charted a
clear course for improved interna.
| tional relations with the objective of
world peace and prosperity.

Washington, D. C. (ILNS).-The "a
families of the men killed in the recent
Pineville, KY, mine disaster offer a
powerful argument for compulsory
workmen's compensation, Secretary of
Labor L. B. Schwellenbach pointed out
in letters to labor officials throughout
the nation His letters constituted
strong condemnation of laws which
permit employers to avoid insuring
their employees against industrial in
juries.
Not one of the Pineville widows and
children will receive cent of work
mems compensation, Schwellenbach
emphasized, because, under Kentucky s
elective law, the Straight Creek Coal
Co. does not carry workmen's COM
pensation insurance.
Survivors of the ID men killed in
the more recent mine explosion near
Welch, w. Va, are more fortunate in
that the coal company carried insur-
ance although the state law is elec-
tive.
Union Action Suggested
Secretary Schwellenbach said pro-
lection could be assured to all work
ers by amendments to state work
mems compensation acts which would
make coverage mandatory upon al
employers, instead Of optional as now
prevails in 29 states.
Pending revision of these acts,
the possibility of achieving work
mems compensation protection
through the collective bargaining
process might be explored, the
Secretary said.
Requiring employers to take out
workmen's compensation insurance
also offers strong financial induce
ment to organize sound accident pre-
vention programs, the Secretar,
stated. A report of Kentucky De
partment of Mines Inspector just ;
year ago described general safety

Big New Surprises Seen AS Council Concludes An
Eventful Session

-Invigorated and encouraged
by the dramatic return to the fold of
the United Mine Workers Union, the
American Federation of Labor is on
it's way to big new developments in
the coming months.
The Executive Council mapped plans
for major organizing drives and paw
ed the way for negotiations looking
toward the affiliation of other major
unions before winding up it's news
packed mid-winter meeting here.
For strategic reasons, specific de-
tails on the important moves under
way were withheld for the time being
but it was understood that at least 6
substantial organizations, including
one independent union, are knocking
on the AFL's door for admission.
With labors enemies making des-
perate efforts to crush the trade
union movement, the dynamic resur-
gence of the American Federation of
Labor is expected to underline the
need for unity in labor's ranks and
start many of it's wayward units on
the way home.
Outstanding news announced by
the Executive Council during it's final
sessions included:
John l.. Lewis, taking his new
seat on the Executive Council as the
representative of 100000 coal miners,
declared that the dominant position
of the AFL in organized labor will be
increasingly recognized" by Ameri-
can workers and the public in the
months ahead.
| q Generous reaffiliation terms
were offered to the Brewery Workers
| Union, which will hold conference
late next month to consider immedi-
ate return to the AFL.
3-Full cooperation to overcome
the nations housing crisis and to meet
long-range need for new home con-
struction was pledged to the govern
ment.
4-The council called upon the
United States Government to break
off relations with the Franco regime
and recognize the exiled republican
government of Spain.
Sit warned the United Nations
against according consultative recog.
milton to the World Federation OF
Trade Unions, which is dominated by
Soviet Russia and which the AFL
again refused to join.
6-Plans for more effective and or
derly organization of workers into
trade unions in the American-occu
pied zone of Germany were proposed
To further the good-neighboi
policy, the AFL arranged to extend
invitations to Latin American labor
leaders to visit the United States ano
study labor conditions here.
8-Unyielding opposition to the new
antilabor Case bill, which has beer
given the right of way in the House
of Representatives, was unanimously

Says South Not Guilty"

Washington, D. C. (ILNS).-The
Senate filibuster against the bill for
permanent Fair Employment Prac-
tices Commission, is really directed
against the antipoll tax bill, Jennings
Perry, editor of the Nashville Tennes-
sean, Nashville, Tenn, declares in a
letter to the Washington Post. Perry
says that the South simply must plead
not guilty" to the charge that the fill
buster is southern and goes on to say:
"The putting, choleric gentlemen
whose bombast is filling the august
chamber were elected, one and all, by
fragment of the people of their
states. From the southern people they
have neither the commission nor the
instruction to block the governmental
processes with their wind. The fact is
that the South has been aware of no
hardship nor bother under the wartime
Fair Employment Practice Commits
sion, and looks to no bother if the
commission is made permanent.
Among the people of the South there is
no perturbation.
