Why Do Reds Talk Thut Wuy?

The blast against the United States by
Alexei N. Krasilnikov, righthand man to
Soviet Delegate Gronlyko, emphasizes a
query often suggested by such utterances.
This Is: What motivates charges and
denunciations so contrary to demonstrable
fact that their absurd baselessness is self
evident to any well-informed person?
MIR. Krasilnikov's outburst before the
Security Council of the United Nations
was touched of by our delegations objec-
tions to the conduct of the present Com
munist- dominated regime in Bulgaria and
its breach of treaty commitments as a
consequence of such conduct In answer,
the Soviet deputy proceeded to paint the
Bulgarian regime as the innocent victim
of our hypocrisy, imperialism, and what
have-you. He then went on to ask rhetor-
ically how America dared accuse Bulgaria
and its neighbors of violating human rights
when the United States might be open
to even more serious charges in this re-
spect?" He then explained that these
violations" included dismissal of en-
ployes Of our Government for suspected
disloyalty, trials of opposition party

for contempt of Congress, and the passage
of an "antilabor law" His peroration
ridiculed the diplomatic protests to Bull
garia, Hungary and other democratic"
nations, asserting that the motive behind
those protests is known to "every one
whose conception Of human rights goes
beyond the possession Of a cottage, an
icebox and an automobile"
Again it is pertinent to ask how the
accredited representative of the Soviet
Union can get up before the high conclave
of the United Nations and unburden him
self of such collection of illogical balder-
dash. He must know that accusations so
intemperate and apologies for his stooges
so topsy-turvy ALLEVIATE rather than per-
suade or convince the bulk of public opin-
ion everywhere in the world outside the
"iron curtain" If he does know this, are
his words directed solely for home con-
sumption within the Soviet sphere, plus
the robotlike minds of Communist fanat-

Gipsy Smith

All the gypsleS are mysterious, and Gipsy
Smith was no exception to the rule He
was bern in a tent under tree in Epping
Forest in 1850 and the first years Of his
life were spent under Romany conditions.
1t was when he was sixteen that he fol-
lowed his father and two older brothers
into evangelism. The "call' to preach was
demand upon his spirit which he did
not attempt to resist. Instead, he de-
Iberately set himself to the task of being
a preacher Of exceptional power, and he
realized his ambition as few men ever do
the aspirations of their souls.
Smiths earliest congregations were
turnips in an open field. He "practiced'
on them, as Demosthenes tried out" with
the wind and the waves, and made himself
eloquent as we'll as strong of lungs. The
moment was ripe for the work to which
he consecrated himself. Half a decade
with General" William Booth in what
subsequently became the Salvation Army
gave him the training in organization
technique which he needed. AS soon as
he felt that he had developed public of
his own, he assumed an Independent
status The National Council of Free
Churches sponsored him, but he really
was "a solo performer" from 1882 onward.
At least thirty times Gipsy Smith
journeyed to America. His first visit was
in 1889. He died on the way to final
appearance in New York. The labors Of his
career were fruitful beyond his original
dreams He leaves name which long
will be bright around the world. Espe-
cially, he will be remembered for his love
of beauty-the grandeur of nature, the
charm of people at their best, the magic
of music and of the spoken word when it
is spoken with artistry. He was gentle,
too, in his manrfer-an exhorter, but never
guilty of ranting. The gypsy mystery
stayed with him to the end. But what
does that word mean when it is applied
to such a vibrant character, such COM

Federal Homecoming

1t Is gratifying to learn that the post
fwar decentralization" of nine decentral-
lied Government agencies will begin in
October, even though several Of them may
have to be housed in temporary buildings.
In appropriating funds to return the bu-
reaus to Washington, Congress recognized
that the good faith of the Government
was at stake in this matter. When the
rapid growth of wartime Offices neces-
STATED removal of some Of the old-line
agencies to less-crowded cities official
promises were made that the moves were
'just for the duration" Nevertheless
agitation had developed in some of the
host cities to retain the Federal groups
permanently.
But every one Of these transferred agen-
cies properly belongs here. Most Of them
are branch Offices that found it difficult
to carry on their work by remote control
of their parent headquarters in the Dis
trict. The Patent Office, now happily back
in Washington, was prime example. The
removal of part of the examining divi-
sions to Richmond, Virginia, seriously
handicapped that already overloaded
agency. The new Repatriation" program
which, will begin this fall will bring back
some four thousand five hundred employees
Among the. first to return will be the
Securities and Exchange Commission
which spent the war years in Philadelphia
Others due to arrive during october will
be the Interior Departments Personnel
Office, the Fish and Wildlife Service, the
National Park Service and the Indian
Bureau all of which now are in Chicago.
During November the Fourth Regional
Office of the Civil Service Commission, now
in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, will
return. The Immigration and Naturaliza-
ton Service will be brought from Phila-
delphia in December. The Veterans Ad-
ministration's Actuarial Insurance Office
and the Bureau of Employees Compensa-
ton will be moved from New York early
next year.
The returning employees will find Wash
ington still crowded two years after the
war. The reduction in personnel achieved
since the close of hostilities has been con-
siderable, but, as Senator Byrd has pointed
out, new activities have absorbed some of
the discharged employees and have taken
on new personnel to boot. Congress
ordered additional retrenchments The
latest development in this economy pro-
gram is the impending dismissal of eight
thousand Veterans Administration en-
ployes, including seven hundred in Wash
ington.
1t is to be hoped that administrative
officials will faithfully adhere to the intent
of Congress that the first to go should be
the emergency employees. It is obvious
that further reductions in force must be
made, or new space found, if regular
employees now being returned to Wash
ington are to enjoy the right Of reoccupy-
Ing their permanent offices. If it is neces-
sary to house Federal employees in tempo
rary quarters, the old-line personnel do
not deserve to be given makeshift facilities
They have put up with enough incon-
veniences as 1t is.

Toft-HortIey Bill Seen
Widely Misunderstood
Poll Shows Workers Against Law,
But in Favor of Its Provisions
BIZ Gerard D. Reillu

By Gerard D. Reilly
Senators and Representatives who resisted
the pressures of the union lobby and voted
for the Taft-Hartley Labor MANAGEMENT Re-
lations Act have an additional problem on
their hands If substantial number of their
constituents are industrial workers, according
to recent poll taken by the Opinion Research
Corporation of Princeton, N. j. In cam
vassing representative sample Of employees
IN the Eastern States and the industrial Middle
West, this research agency discovered that
859s OF the workers interviewed had heard or
read about the new law and 54qe of these dis
approved of it, In tabulating the sampling, it
developed that 649o of the union members
questioned were opposed to its passage
A startling aspect of the survey entitled
"The Strange Case Of the Taft-Hartley Bill"
shows that majority of employees as whole
favored every feature Of the legislation when
put to the test, and a majority of the union
members favored every feature but one, namely,
the prohibition against the closed shop Even
on that issue most union members were in
favor of the workers having a right to vote
as to whether or not compulsory member
ship provision should be inserted in a collective
agreement
Moreover, the ban on the true closed shop
Chat Is an agreement requiring the employer
to hire persons who are already members Of
unions) proved acceptable to all groups union
and nonunion with the single exception Of
workers now employed under closed-shop con-
ditions
The researchers obtained this paradoxical in
formation first by questioning each worker
selected at random as to whether or not he
favored the new law and then asking him
specific questions about its central features.
1t developed that workers generally were poorly
informed on what the law contains and that
the overwhelming majority favored what is in
the law but did not know 1t. breakdown
Of the questions shows that a law which con-
tanned the following objectives Is favored by
the worker group,

acting as the touch of home the
link between them and their fami-

Chairman Marcus further added
that in peace or in war the Red
Cross is actively carrying on it's work
of Home Service, Disaster Relief,
First Aid and Accident Prevention,
Blood Donor Service, Production
Room Service, and many other ac-
tivities which require funds. "Our

seemed to enjoy the show.
Ricardo Martinez was lucky man
in the first jackpot calf roping, ty-
ing his calf in 1873. Don Farrell was
second with 16 flat.
A matched calf roping between
Ricardo Martinez and Abel De La
Osa was on a three calf average
and Abel nosed Ricardo out by 6
seconds. Lots of money changed
hands on this deal.
In the team tying the boys could
only enter once and this made some
very good teams competing. Abe
De La Osa and Rich Hale got first
money with 14.3, and Lee and Dor
Farrell second with 31.2.
Second jackpot calf roping was
won by Don Farrell with 1877, ano
Abel De La Osa ana Ricardo Mar
tinez split second with Is flat.
Next up was the cow horse race
Ruben Sanchez riding a paint wa
