From The Desk
Melvin Schultz
Local II, UAW.CIO
President,

Once again I would like to reiterate that
lot of national politics dealing with the coming
presidential election are brewing. Headlines
in the paper call for voluntary reductions In
prices. Other headlines show meager increases
in rates of pay. The difference between the
rates of pay which are being granted as COM
pared with what is requested is still so far
apart that in my opinion depression is in
evitable in the near future.
The purchasing power of the consumers in
the United States cannot drop to rate of four
billion dollars less than last year without hav-
ing very decided effect on the market This
coupled with the facts that manufacturers
would would rather sell less items at higher
profit leaves but one alternative which is un-
employment
I have also noted the thoughts expressed
whereby the margin required to purchase
stock on the stock market is to be reduced.
Now, in our system of government, when
credits are expanded, it becomes a sure sign
for a good depression AS soon as enough
people can be gotten out on limb by over
extending their credit, their mortgages can be
foreclosed with a sizeable margin of profit to
the holder. This means not only the mortgage
on the house or car which the average worker
owes but also the short-term loans which busi-
ness uses to function. If these are suddenly
terminated and lot of stocks of our big cor
porations are sold to purchasers with small
down payments, then we are all set for quick
call in" or payment in full. Of course, there
will be very few who are able to pay off
their bills on notice
If workers could be and would be guar
anteed something near their present standard
of living on year-round basis, the gambling
which takes place through prices and credit
would tend to have less cause to affect the
future course of our country.
We have come a long way in the past Is
years by adopting such things as unemploy-
ment Insurance. social security, wage-hour
law and other measures. Being very realistic
however, these are only token measures toward
society which has sufficient natural wealth
and manpower to maintain truly adequate
modernistic standard of living year-in and
other

Regional

By Richard Gosser
Director Region 2B. UAW-ClO

It now appears that the national wage pat
tern will be settled for all the major industries
by the end of this week, partial solution Tor
our troubles which cannot achieve its oblec-
tive without thep rice cuts for which Pres
ident Truman called.
Labor leaders and economists have been
warning the nation for the past year, ever
since the wage increases which were given in
1916, that unless prices were reduced that we
would not be many months away from what
the economists called recession" but which
we bluntly called depression.
l do not think that we should kid ourselves
into the belief that any wage increases which
may get now are going to save us from
unemployment and the country from an eco
nomic crisis, unless and until substantial cuts
are made in large number of commodities,
particularly food and clothing
If the employers are not wise enough to
recognize that they cannot indefinitely con-
tinue to reap the highest profits in history
without drying up the purchasing power of the
people who buy the products which they man
ufacture, then will certainly go into an
other tailspn which may make 1929-1932 look
like boom.
THE ANSWER
l certainly don't pose as an economist, but
it seems to me that the only possible answer
to our problem is to get the wage increases
which have been asked all over the nation and
at the same time receive the cooperation OF all
industry and business in trying to save our
nation from going into a period of economic
bust
Don't ask me if think that this can or will
be done by the people who control the price
structure but look at the situation which has
existed during the past year and ask yourself
that question. This does not lessen the fact that
unless business is willing to give up some of
its big profits to the people who work for
living, then we might well prepare our
selves for the worst.
l want to take this opportunity to again
urge everyone to write to Senators Taft and
Bricker and urge them to consider well their
vote on the Taft Labor Bill. Such bill, when
added to our other troubles, would set us back
100 years and fix us so that we would have to
accept any wage the employer wants to pay us.

Greatest Crisis

American labor today faces the great
est crisis in its history.
Even the most casual reading of the
Taft.Hartley bills or the Ohio Van AIKEN
bill makes us want to pinch ourselves to
see if we are awake. They are like taking
pages from Hitler's "Mein Kampf."
No longer are we dealing with the
theories of the "alarmists" who for years
told us that sit can happen here" We are
face to face with deadly reality in the
shape of legislation, which, if it is passed
will find us but a short step away from
FasCism and everything that goes with
brutaltarian government
Nor should we lull ourselves into n
false sense of security by assuring our
selves that il can't happen here. 1t not
only can happen, but it is happening
when Congress by vote of more than
three to one passes the Hartley Bill which
utterly destroys the unions and wipes out
every gain that labor has made for more
than 100 years.
German labor made the mistake OF
finding rays of hope, even as Hitler was
planning to take over the unions. Hitler
knew, as Taft, Hartley and their kind
know, that only the labor movement
stands between them and the power
which they are obviously seeking.
We must not, dare not console our
selves with the thought that it will take
weeks before the Taft-Hartley Bill can
be enacted into law and then only after
some of its worst phases have been re-
moved
We should not comfort ourselves with
the thought that the President is bound to
veto the bill and that the whole night
marish plot is strictly political move to
put the administration on the spot and
prepare the way for glorious Republican
triumph in 194S.
We must look upon the Taft-Hartley
legislation for what it really is--the first
bold move to create a Fascist state under
a single political party whose first step
toward ultimate success is the liquidation
of the labor unions.
Ours must be a positive program of re-
SiStance. We must not do as the German
labor movement did. We dare not take
this terrible thing lying down. We must
fight and go down as men, or face the
other and more terrifying alternative of
supinely accepting our fate.
Today, now, all labor must unite in the
common defense against the forces who
are at last boldly showing their hand This
is not the time to argue about the tech
nicaIities of jurisdictions and organic
makeup. This is the time for strong and
united labor to grid itself for battle and
to go forth boldly and courageously to
meet the enemies of democracy and de-
eency.
Truly eternal vigilance is the price of
liberty. We must face the issue and meet
this crisis. Unless we do this we too shall
perish.

Cancer And You

The most arresting thing about the
current campaign for funds with which to
fight cancer are the figures which reveal
that one person in every eight, now liv-
ing is due to die of that disease.
In terms of Local IL, UAW-CIO, with
its $4,000 members, those figures mean
that 5000 persons in our union are
doomed. These are both young and old
members.
We are not going to enter into lengthy
discussion of the disease, that has been
done by competent physicians, but suf-
flee it to say that cancer is second only to
heart ailments in effectively taking human
lives.
In the light of the facts we feel that we
would be neglecting an obvious duty if we
failed to remind every member of our
union, every person who reads this edi-
torial column, that now is the time when
they can give whatever their means will
afford TO save humankind Z. i. perhaps the
fellow next to you at your plant, perhaps
your own children :. perhaps yourself.

At least 20Po of the banks
and trust companies inspect
ed by the government last
year were in violation of the
40c-an-hour minimum wage
law. This was about twice as
high as the national average
for all industries covered by
the law. The government
closed down 518 mines that
weren't safe, and you can't
tell us that any bank that
can't afford to pay 40c-an-
hour Is safe.

In some sections of the country the tele-
phone companies bought newspaper ads or
radio time to assure the public that, even
without maintenance, the dial phone system
wouldn't break down for two or three months.
What they didn't tell the public, however was
that pay phones, after about SIS worth OF
nickels, jam up and won't work And the
collectors, OF course, are maintenance men
and members of the striking National Fedora
ton of Telephone Workers. Consequently
within three days after the beginning OF the
strike, AT&T executives were gnawing their
fingernails. Pay phones were jamming up
and around the country were thousands Of
buckets of nickels just lying dogge And to
top off AT&T's headache, the owners of sew
eral hundred midwest pin-ball machines
complained that AT&T was wrecking their
business by taking nickels out of circulation.

Washington
LaborReport
~@A
BY Bradford v. Carter
LPA COlumniSt

"A general strike would be
labor's answer to this legis-
lation If it were passed"
For the first time in dozen
years in Washington ! heard
such a thought expressed Sc
riously by a responsible gov
ernment labor official. He
was referring to the Senate
(Taft) and House (Hartley)
labor bills now before Con-
gress.
The reasons behind such
remark are easy to discover
when you consider some of
the laws now being debated
for our statute books:
I Through the legalization
of labor injunctions forbidden
since before the New Deal,
employers could break strikes
as of old.
2. Through the atomization
of unions, employers would
return to the days when they
could take on their workers
virtually lone at a time" and
bargain with them on an
equal basis one worker
against an employer. No local
union could represent the en-
ployes of more than one en-
ployer, unless there were less
than 100 employees in any of
the plants in which the local
claimed representation rights.
& Through the abolition of
union security, the employers
could destroy the unions. All
closed shops contracts would
be illegal.
STRIKES BANNED
Now, believe it or not,
while the employers are thus
carving the union to bits, the
unions may not strike. Many
types of strikes, such as SYM
pathy, jurisdictional, mon
polistic" and boycott strikes
are specifically banned. A
legal strike cannot be called
without a veto in which
the employer may state the
question to be on the ballot.
That is, the question on the
ballot is whether or not to
accept the employers last Of
fer to the union.
The boss describes the is
sues in his own terms, with
out giving the union the right
to state its position.
There have been undenied
statements by labor experts
that all strikes would be lille
gal under the various differ
ent provisions of the worst
of these bills Congressman
Hartley's the House has
just approved,
1t is true that these bills
are so bad that they will
probably be vetoed and that,
at least in the Senate, the
anti-labor forces will not be
able to override the veto.
But that does not mean that
we have little to worry about;
it means that we have to
start the 1948 Congressional
campaign now.
