Though recently removed as in- ternnational representative for the Mine, Mill & Shelter Workers Un- ion, Alex Cashin represented organ Ized employees of the Jenkins Valve Company, Bridgeport, at Q negotiat- ing conference today. Local 623, see cured Cashin's services by arrange. ment with Local 320, which hired him as business agent following his custer by Union President Reid Robinson.

Your G Rights
By DOUGLAS LARSEN NEA Staff Correspondent

Q. After I had been getting on. the. Job training for four months, I decided ! wasn't learning any thing. I told my boss, and he said there was nothing l could do. Since then they haven't even tried to teach me anything. I keep get- ting nHeney from the government, and they haven't raised my pay. What can I do? Can I go to an- other plant where . friend of mine is getting the real training I'd like?
 A. you should report the situa- tion to your Veterans Administra- ton contact man. You can trans- fer to the other plant, if the man. ager there will accept you.
 c. I was a delivery man for a small dairy before I went into the Army. I had 9 very profitable route. While I was away 8 larger company bought the dairy I worked for. Now they say I don't have a legal right to my old job. Is this true? What can do?
 A. If they refuse to give you back your job, you should take the case to your local draft board. It has been held in a case similar to yours that in taking over a company the purchaser also as- Sumes its legal responsibilities.

 FIR. SULLIVAN stressina, Th C very word family implies more than . married couple. It implies father and mother, and God-given child Een.
 Tn an age of gross materlalisni, there is no consideration of. the basic factors in civilization. Child- Fen, because they mark walls, or cry, or trample the grass are ruled Out as though they were cattle. If the dollar -grabbers are going to rule society, It may be necessary to get permit for 2 child, costing perhaps a couple of dollars, as one must get Q per- init to keep chickens within ceF- tain districts.
 Now such property-ownerS put klneir title to their property in jeop- ardy, morally, If not actually. And If the abuse continues 1t may be necessary to get under way some legal action to protect the families of the nation.
 Eminent Domain
 AHS CUN0H1UH BUVu ONNVo VAg0S- dence over the right to private property, and the state holds the right tO exercise eminent domain over all property. If the state deems It sufficient cause to con- demn and thus take over prop. erty for a barracks. or for the building of state highway, lt is certainly sufficient grounds to to take over property for the shelter of it's citizens. For shelter Is q basic need of all men. If the dollar. .grabberS are going to pen aIize parents with children, then it is time for the state to exer. else it's right.
 There would be, of course, a faii indemnity for the property. .owner; this is one of the requisites in the action. But 1t must be made clear that buying A piece Of property does not in any way give the owner complete and final right to the dis' position or use of that property.

Catholic Thought and Opinion
!, The Right to q Rent
 By REV. JAMES J. SULLIVAN

mits to be obtained--all for the purpose of Keeping up the property It Is amazing how the really incon- sequentials are vigorously protected by the law, and the really funda- mental needs of the people are al. most totally neglected. Indeed, 4 a survey were to be taken, 1t il almost certain that the great bull of our law is concerned, not witt the human factors, but with that brazen god property. Staffs of law yers busy themselves day and nigh in drawing Up laws to protec property. And complementary staff are as busy finding loopholes in thu law--to further protect 1t anC strengthen 1t.
 But when some steps were takef within the past twelve years t' remedy the situation, we hearS hysterical cries of Socialism, oi what have you.
 There is certainly crying neeC for action against such home own CTS who quickly slam the door whe1 the unfortunate applicant shame fully confessess to having three o four children, or even one child.
 Owning property in a commun- fly is . community undertaking. It Is not, cannot be, for invest" Tnent only. Public places, such as restaurants or theatres, are prOs- ecuted for refusing to admit this or that individual because of cole or or such. And this is as it should be. Why should not own. ers be prosecuted for refusing to let flats to families because there are children?
 Need For Q Housing Bureau
 There should be q Bureau of Housing in every city. Landlords who refuse rentals tO decent, trustworthy tenants for no other reason than that, there are child .ren in the family, should be liable to prosecution. For such owners are doing real harm to the public good, and therefore are fOrfelting their rights. It might be an in- centive if the already-wOrried tax boards reduced the taxes of the owner in proportion to the num- Der of children in a given resi- dence.
 At least, there ought to be black k-liSt' drawn up by some or eanization, 90 that such owner would be able to wander freet through their empty tenements when the rush is over,
 The maddening part of the whol tragic business is that the yer, children who arc deterrent to get ting e rent now, will be, very like ly, the beloved 'GI. Joe Of tel years from now. And we'll all b down at the station telling him | give 1t to them, Joe ole boy. Tn ole American way, Joe. Bye, Joel
 Let's see # we can't use a littl of the billions now, and use a littl Of the startegy and acurnen now, | get roof over little Joe's head.
