The month of March again is here,
The saddest of the year to bear.
For it brings anew sad memories
OF the tragic fate of one 1 loved SO dear.
I sadly pause. to think Of you
To think you could not say good-by
Before you closed your eyes.
They say time heals broken heart,
But. oh; this seems so untrue,
MY aching heart has Cried Tor YOU
For there are griefs that cannot fnd COM
And wounds that cannot be healed;
There are sorrows so deep in the human
They can never be revealed.
And though your soul is now at rest
Your heart is free from care or pain,
Yet 1t would seem like Heaven
If I had you back again
But somewhere back of the sunset,
Where loved ones never die,
You live in land of beauty in glory
With the blue and gold Of Gods sky.
And there hearts at last are free from
And sorrows crushing load,
And where my loved one waits for me
In peace at the end of the road.

LABOR:
End Long Strike

Beaten in their attempts to OBJ
tain union security" Local 100 Of
the CIO-United Automobile Workers
ended its 14k-months-old strike at
the J. I. Case tractor and harvest
ing equipment plants in Racine,
Wis. Previously, union members
had returned to work in Cases
Rock Island, ILL.,, Burlington, Ia,
and Rockford, ILL.,, factories after
prolonged walkouts.
Asst. Sec. of Labor John W. Glib
son was successful in bringing the
company and the Racine local to-
gether. Abandoning efforts to obtain
union shop, maintenance of men,
bership and compulsory dues
checkoff, the local settled for an
average Is cents an hour wage
raise, new grievance machinery
and improved vacation provisions.
Settlement of the strike posed a
labor problem for Racine since
many of the $500 strikers had taken
other jobs during the course of the
walkout. Their action eased the
strain on the union treasury al
though other workers received
strike benefits. The plants were
completely shut down during the
dispute, with the union maintaining
effective picket lines.

D DIPLOMACY DAY:
Back Truman

Despite its radical departure from
traditional American foreign policy
and inherent threat of conflict with
Russia, President Humans pro-
gram for aiding Greek and Turkish
resistance to Soviet pressure in the
strategic Middle East gained strong
support in congress.
Many Republican senators and
Representatives crossed party lines
to back Mr.. Humans proposal to
lend Greece and Turkey 400 million
dollars within the next year to boil
ster their economies and buy arms
and provide military experts to
train key personnel. Senator Bridges
(Rep., N. H.) summed up congress
sional sentiment: eff we are ever
going to try to stop the spread of
Communism, now is the time"
Critics of the program did not so
much oppose the fortnight action
proposed to check the Red tidal
wave in eastern Europe as they in
weighed against past state depart
ment practices in aiding the Soviets
and their puppet states in strength
ening their hold on oppressed people.
With the entire nation sensitive to
growing Russian dominance, critics
were expected to lend their support
for maximum safeguards against
precipitating hostile action.
Mr.. Truman made no bones about
administration intentions of resist
ing Russian expansionism, declar-
ing that U. S. foreign policy re-
manned dedicated to the principle

PHILIPPINES:
Welcome americans

By an overwhelming vote, the
Philippines approved a constitu-
tional amendment granting Ameri-
can citizens the same economic
rights as natives. The measure car
ried in rural provinces and big
cities alike, with a heavy swing in
Manila resulting from an attempt
on the life of Pres. Manuel Roxas,
champion of the provision. :" y :
Recognizing the ~. S. as the
strongest economic. force in the
world, Roxas and his adherents as
serted that adoption of the plan af-
forded the only real opportunity for
postwar reconstruction in the war
torn islands. Opponents charged
that the measure surrendered Phil
ippine sovereignty over economic
matters.
Under the amendment, the peso
will be tied to the dollar to stabilize
exchange rates. Trade between the
two countries will remain duty free
for eight years, with gradually in
creasing tariffs for the next 20
years. Americans will be guaran-
teed equal rights in development of
natural resources, management
and control of public utilities, and
ownership of land.

RAIL MURDER:
FBI Enters Case

Congressional concern over the
shotgun Staying Of Pres. George P.
McNear of the embattled Toledo,
Peoria and Western railroad
brought the FBI into the case in an
effort to track down the killers Of
the millionaire rail executive.
The justice department author
lied the FBI investigation on the
grounds that the federal govern
ment was interested in what other
wise might have been a local Incl
dent because of McNear's recent
testimony before the house labor
committee.
Committee Chairman Hartley
(Rep., N. J.) revealed that McNear
had charged the Railroad Brother
hoods with melting violence on the
T. P. & W. to prompt government
seizure of the line dufing the war.
Brotherhood officials replied by &C.

BIC BUSINESS:
Growing Bigger

Pointing out that 1900 companies
have been absorbed by purchase or
merger since 1910, the Federal
Trade commission urged adoption
of bill sponsored by Representa-
tive Kefauver (Defh., Tenn.) that
would prevent such practices where
they tended to create a monopoly.
Under present provisions of the
Clayton antitrust act, only stock
purchases forming a monopoly are
prohibited. Operators have been
able to get around this provision,
however, by outright purchase of a
company's assets or exchanging
stocks through merger. Kefau-
ver's bill would plug the present
loop-hole and empower the ETC to
rule on mergers.
Traditionally small business fields
like food, textiles and non-electrical
machinery have been subject to
one-third of the purchases and
mergers since 1910, ETC disclosed.
Indicative of the trend, American
Home Products corporation ac-
CURED 38 companies, including
manufacturers of baby foods, spa
ghetti, floor wakes, paints and in
secticides; Burlington Mills corpo-
ration took over 10 companies, COM
prising textile mills, finishing plants
and hosiery producers.

constitutional amendment to be sub

Of SO of the 48 states would have to
ratify the amendment within seven
years for it to take effect.
While agreeing to the principle of
limiting the presidential tenure, the
two houses differed over the time
allowed the vice-president if he
should take over an unexpired term.
The house restricted his tenure to
eight years in all while the senate
permitted two years of an. unex-

terms, or 10 years in all.
The senate also adopted an
amendment by Senator Taft (Rep.,

Truman to serve two full terms

PRED term of three years.
