Tudor Advises
Child Check-up

Any child planning to enter
school for the first time this year
should have complete physical
checkup by the wamily physician,
DR.. Charles Tudor, Benton-Frank-
lin District health officer advised
today.
Arrangements have been made
to hold the pre-school clinic in
Kennewick on August 81 and %
at the Kennewick grade school.
Appointments can be made thru
the pre-school section of the Par
ent-TeacherS association of Ken
neWick. These pre-School clinics
will be conducted by DR.. Tudor,
with the cooperation of his staff
and Mrs. Alma Stickles, the Ken
newick school nurse. 49,
ri cannot emphasize the import
ance of this kind of examination
too strongly" DR.. Tudor said
Starting school is major mile
stone in a child's life, and he
should be in the best possible
condition. A child's entire school
career may be hampered if he be-
gins it with an unsupported han
dicap."
He urged parents to make ap-
pointmentS with the family doc
tors without delay, SO that the ex.
aminations may be completed be-
fore school begins.
In addition to seeking the cor
rectable physical defects, the ply
Sician will immunize the child
against smallpox and diphtheria
if he has not already been given
this protection, DR.. Tudor said
In addition, it would be a good
idea for parents to ask the doctor
to give the child's eyes prelim-
mary checking so that he may be
referred to a specialist if correc-
ton is necessary. -.
IF the doctor gives your child
a clean bill of health, you will
know he is starting school on an
equal footing with his classmates
, On the other hand, if he discov-
ers certain defects that should be
corrected, by putting the young
sters under treatment you will be
making his school days immeas-
urably easier" HI ...r,
Dr.. Tudor also reminded par
entS that all children's teeth
should be checked by dentist
twice a year, beginning at two
and one half years of age. The
child's teeth should be checked al
some time within six months OF
entering school.

 Dear Nathan Sherman:-
 By unanimous vote of the execu- tive meeting of this union on last Tuesday, was instructed to address to you a sincere expression of thanks for your very fine article in The Union Times concerning the American Federation of Musicians recording tax allocatiOn to local unions.
 Publicity of this sort goes a long way toward alleviating the adverse and unfavorable public opinion of President Petrillo and our profes- sion after the recent punishing press attacks against us at the out. set of the recording and transcript ton controversy.
 We do appreciate your effort; not only in our behalf, but in your general interest of all organized A. F. of L. affairs and matters of public concern which we hope, is slowly but surely increasing the popularity of The Union Times.
 Yours very truly and fraternaIIy.

Labor Experts Given Brushoff By Taft's Group
Senate Labor Committee Obviously Doesn't Want
 The Basic Facts

A large proportion of the wit nesses who have participated in the hearings before Sen. Robert Taft's Labor Committee can hardly be said to come into court with clean hands. Many of them engaged in anti union activities and opposed the National Labor Relations Act even as it became the law of the land.
 Although this element of American industry has been encouraged to speak its piece, the experts, on the other hand, have been given the brushoff by the Senate Committee. For example: :: Sen Taft has refused to hear from such distinguished labor relations au- thorities as William Leiserson, Harry Mills, William Davis, George Taylor, or Frank Graham, each of whom has been a federal official in the labor field, respected alike by labor and industry.
 PAGING DIR. WOMAN
 In preference to these men Taft called upon Prof. Leo Wolman, known since MIRA days as a secret advisor to the Special Conference Committee composed of representatives of the doz- en largest corporations, united to fight labor.
 Following Dr. Wolman with only minor exceptions has been a long parade of employers with a long record of having violated the Wag- ner Act. They are only too happy to complain of the need for clip ping the wings of the. National Labor Relations Board-the same Board that had found them guilty of unfair labor practices and whose decisions, incidentally, were supp ported by the federal courts.
 Charles E. Wilson, of General Mo tors, allowed as how he would be hap py to go hack to the days when he could spend small treasures spying on his employees union activities. He doesn't want any union to be permitted to bargain with more than one em- ploye, because its monopo1istic power would be too great. But it is a fact that last year he met secretly in the Waldorf Astoria Hotel with the big wigs of large scale industry to plan how they would fight the unions. I
