Behind the
Scenes In
Politics
By
Clayton
Rusch
Chairman


Altho the Taft Hartley law
is about the most vicious piece
of anti-labor legislation yet to
be enacted, it would be a mis-
take to assume that the
enemies of labor are satisfied
with their success.
The enemies of the people
are planning to promote lot
more anti-labor and anti-social
bills. They have made it clear
they intend to completely
abolish industry wide bargain
ing. They want to put a limit
on all means of raising funds
to defend the workers inter-
ests. They wish to first render
the union movement helpless
and then liqidate it altogether.
The articles written n by
spokesman for the supporters
of the Taft-Hartley law plain
ly show that only after the
labor movement emasulated
by restrictive legislation; only
after all fair-minded judges
have been replaced in office
by anti-labor men; only after
labor leaders are put in chain
gangs and only after the
workers are again at the COM
plete mercy of the employers
will the anti-labor forces cease
supporting anti-labor legisla-
ton.
Also scheduled to come un-
der further attacks from the
wealthy interests are the liv-
ing standards of the people
and the present inadequate
social security laws.
If we intend to save the
gains we have left we cannot
succeed by carrying on a
purely defensive fight. The
fact is that our present social
security laws are inadequate
and we must launch and sus-
tain a vigorous campaign to
go forward toward the estab-
lishment of adequate social
security safeguards, through
promoting passage of social
legislation.
1t is also true that the Taft
Hartley law contains so many
provisions destructive to labor
that If the law remains in
effect the labor movement
will surely be annihilated. 1t
just isn't possible to do an eff
fective job of organizing and
protecting the workers inter-
ests and stay within the limits
prescribed by the Taft-Hartley
law.
Let us show that we mean
business by making this meet
ing a demonstration of our
strength and purpose.
The monopoly interests of
this nation are determined not ;
to rest until they have des-
troyed the labor movement,
and restored the pre-Roose-
veltian principle of a free hand
for big business to do as it
pleases.
Let us resolve to not cease
our efforts until we have
established an industrial DEM
ocracy with economic security,
political liberty and social
Justice for all.

President Charles Luck
man, of Lever Brothers Co.,
one OF the nations few liberal
industrialists, has criticized
unions for not giving their
own employees the wages and
advantages they ec k from
private employers. The an.
swer to that is easy. II em.
ployers stopped refusing de-
cent wages and forcing
strikes, union treasures could
then afford the kind of sala-
ries Mr.. Luckman would APP
prove. If employers would
stop union.busting, labor or
gsnlzers could have vacations
with pay instead of marching
on picket lines. But the truth
of the matter is that soft
hearted employers don't want
to see hundreds of National
Labor Relations employees
fired-which they would be
II unions didn't have to send
thousands of unfair labor
practice cases to the NLRB
each year.
Union "collusion," such as
one union refusing to handle
goods made in the struck
plant of another union, is now
outlawed by the Taft-Hartley
law. Among others who de-
manded the law were the
largest Wall Street banking
firms, past.masters at the
"collusion" game as they
proved again last week when
they offered bids on $5,000,.
900 worth OF Oklahoma City,
Okla, municipal bonds. Two
of the biggest firms in the ma
ton offered bids identical to
the sixth decimal. The two
bids tied on an interest cost
Of l.7398569o. But don't let
anyone tell you that wasn't
h e er coincidence because
when the tie was announced
the two firms decided to
merge and sell the issue to
the public jointly.

The American
Way Of Life

What is the American way
of life?
We have used the phrase
so frequently that sometimes
it seems a trifle threadbare at
the corners, its lustre dulled
by familiarity. Our public
speakers-particularly at cam
paign time-act as though it
were an "abracadabra" or
magic word that could unlock
hidden troves of treasure.
OF course you know the full
meaning of the phrase but
have you ever tried to ex-
plain the American way of
life to someone who did not
know America, who was not
stepped in the traditions of
democracy?
I have-and let me assure
you it is no easy task. But it
does make you stop and think
what you really mean by the
American way of life. Here
is what l found I meant by
the phrase.
OPPORTUNITY
The American way of life
is the way of opportunity for
all. 1t does not mean an equal
distribution of all good things,
but an equal chance to work
for a living at fair wage. 1t
means free enterprise-free
to deveop, but not unbridled
license to exploit either man
or natural resources. 1t means
an equal opportunity to learn,
not an equal ability to get
ahead without work.
The American way of life Is
the way of self-restrained
freedom. Under it we may
freely express our own opin-
ion-but we abide by the de-
cision of the majority. The
American way of life implies
a decent respect for the be-
liefs of others, whether or not
we agree with them. Under
it freedom is permitted up to
the point where it impinges
upon the rights of others.
The American way of life
Is the way to progress
through the utilization of
every resource-not merely
the natural ones of the earth
but of that greatest resource
of our nation-the intelli-
gence. the initiative, the pro-
ductive power latent in every
individual, regardless of class,
creed or color.
BROTHERHOOD
The American way Of life
Is the way to the rainbow's
end, to the fulfilment of the
dream of brotherhood. We
Americans may have different
faiths, different backgrounds,
different speech, different col
or. We have the same way of
work, the same way of life.
We know the same sorrows,
Joys and hopes. The Ameri-
can way of life is the way by
which we may achieve the de-
sire of all for a world un-
vexed by war, troubled by
want or fear.
The American way Of life
Is our way. Let us walk in
il for centuries to come, its
road made steadily smoother
by the patient feet of each
generation.
