Too Much Publicity

G. ". (Willie) Dewing, whose en-
tightening article on conditions in the
Caribbean area, appearing in Satur-
days Star. tells an interesting story
Of IN episode which landed him in a
Colombian jail as an American spv
and At the same time reflects the in
discretion Of the United States State
Department In announcing intention to
form an espionage force On the Euro
pean pattern.
According to Mr.. Dewing copies of
newspaper articles and editorials tell
ing Of the State Departments proposal
were distributed pretty much over the
world, 10 that all governments, great
and small, knew what was afoot. When
he landed in Colombia on his tour of
Latin-America, and being an Ameri-
a citizen, he was promptly arrested as
a spy and only because he was &C.
quainted with someone in a high posi-
ton managed to regain his liberty.
Devotees of a free press can still
understand that some official matters
are best held in secret. Certainly the
public discussion accompanying the
proposed change in this nations policy
with respect to espionage was at least
a~mateurish,

in the areas annexed to Wilmington in
fast November's balloting.
When the annexation proposal was
put before the public it was empha-
sized that the suburban neighborhoods
in the area should have the same con-
veniences as existed in the old city as
quickly as they could be installed and
bonds approved for their financing.
It is to be considered that failure
to back the bond issue involved in the
election inevitably would
delay installation of these improve
ments.

Before long I'm going on an ex-
petition over into lower Bladen
county. On the trek I'm going to
call on Mrs. Lorena Rawls who
corresponds for The Star too in
frequently to suit ne.
From the articles Mrs. Rawls
does send in from Currie I'm con-
WINGED she has a veritabls treas
ure trove Of rich lore about lower
Bladen.
Some time in the past January
she sent us a communique about a
large boiling pot-no, the pot itself
doesn't boil, but the water therein
does. Seems this pot has been in
the Rawls family for upwards of a
couple of hundred years. I'm
speaking from memory now be-
cause l lost the notes l made on
Mrs. Rawls' communique at the
time. But as I recall this pot,
among other things, was used to
cook food for the American revolu-
tionaries who thwacked the Red
coats whereabouts when the Colo
mics won their independence. 1t
has been used for thousands OF
other things since. On my expedi-
ton I want to learn more about
the pot.
Lower Bladen is a distinct locali-
ty with a set of traditions all its
own. 1t reminds me of the Kinston
that was in the days when Charlie
McDevitt was living and sent
stories about Kinston and sur
roundings to the papers all over.
Charlie dug UP some of the most
extraordinary stories I ever read
and, with his tongue in his cheek.
invariably insisted they were all
the gospel truth.
Well, this is not a comparison
with the Kinston of Charlie Nc
Devitt's day. But Mrs. Rawls is

yarns. And she writes them in
such a way as to make you feel you

Labor Outlook Improved

LdUOI OuI1OOh AAlAPAOV~ w
President Truman's appearance be-
fore a joint session of Congress to urge
restrictive legislation against strikes
in industries the government had taken
over was among the most dramatic
episodes in American history, and be-
came even more dramatic when the
President interrupted his special mes
sage to announce the railroad strike
had been ended only a few minutes be-
fore the 4 o'clock deadline he set the
night before for it's conclusion, with the
alternative of placing the Army in
charge. A declaration of war or an an
nouncement of peace could not have
stirred his congressional audience or
the people at large to a higher emo
tional outburst.
After delaying anti-strike action, as
it seemed interminably, President Tru-
man at last made it clear that the
strike wave which has interrupted in
dustrial r%econversion and set the ma
ton back economically for the better
part of a year must end. He explained
his delay on the ground that he is a
friend of labor and did not want to see
it lose the gains of the last decade and
more. It was not until the heads of the
two brotherhoods who ordered the
strike which brought all rail commune
cation to a stop convinced him that only
by selling the lines in the name of the
government did he decide to take the
final step.
The House lost no time passing the
bill in the form the President desired.
Senator Taft, however, who is per-
petually against any step of the ad-
ministration, blocked similaS action in
the Senate, and made it clear that he
will offer further objection which
might cause additional delay. That the
Senate ultimately will pass the bill,
however, is not to be doubted.
What the new law will mean is that
the strangle hold a few labor leaders
have had on their unions will be broken
and the working men of the nation may
have some chance to determine their
own policies. They, along with the gen.
eral public, have been the victims of the
alleged gains supposedly %accruing to
their advantage. Instead they have
been forced to do as their leaders
dictated.
1t is to be hoped that the start
toward downright sanity in labor initial
ed by the President before Congress
on Saturday will result in the COM
plete overthrow of the existing union
oligarchy which has done so much not
only to ruin the cause of labor but the
nation as we'll.
