Justices Warn Of Danger In Lewis Ruling
Murphy And Rutledge File Vigorous Dissents On
 Injunction

WASHINGTON-FP)-Justices Frank Murphy and Wiley Rutledge wrote vigorous dissents from the su- preme courts opinion upho1ding the conviction of the United Mine Work CTS and UNIV Pres. John L. Lewis.
 Murphy held that the NOrris-La- Cuardia anti-injunctiOn act barred federal action in the case and that "a judicial disregard of what Con- gress has decreed may seem justi- fled for the moment in view of the crisis which gave birth to this case. But such a disregard may ultimate ly have more disastrous and lasting effects upon the economy of the nation than any action of an ag- gressive labor leader in disobeying a void court order.

.A.F.L. Adopts 4-Point Plan
 For Teachers
Attacks ''Disgraceful Ne. glect'' By City And State
 Governments

WASHINGTON, D.C.-The Com mittee on Education of the American Federation of Labor, meeting here this week adopted a four-point pro- gram to meet the nationwide teacher crisis.
 The committee headed by AFL Vice-President Matthew Woll, urged
 l. Local and State campaigns for obtaining lOng-Overdue salary in- crease for teachers.
 2. Appropriation by Congress of considerably increased funds for Federal aid to education. especially for those States not in a financial position to handle this problem themselves.
 5. Greater security for teachers through the adoption of wider State legislation providing adequate retirement plans and job-tenure protection.
 4. Defeat of proposals to base teachers pay on a so-called merit system.
 The committee praised the action of AFL President Green in calling upon all State Federations of Labor and City Central Labor Unions to initiate State and community drives for higher pay for teachers.
 ''Disgraceful Neglect''
 "The deep distress and general >un- rest now prevalent in the teaching profession" the committee statement declared, result from the disgraceful neglect with which local and State governments have treated public em- ployes over long period of years.
 Ihe American people are now becoming aroused against this false economy at the expense of the pub. lie servants who are entrusted with

Council Favors
 A Strong Mayor

 missions we originally opposed their dissolution because we did not wish to see absolute power and control of a department placed in the hands of a department head. Further thought on the subject has led our group to be- 1ieve, that smaller board, or possi- bly the placing of two or more depart ments under one board would be ad- visable. In no instance however, should the commission have sole power and control of department or group of departments. The Mayor must be em- powered to over-rule any commission when he deems 1t necessary for the good and welfare of the City.
 BOARD OF ALDERMEN
 This board should be reduced in size to nine or eleven man board or council, elected at large. It should be nOn-partisan in nature, and the privilege to run for place on this board should be made avail able to everyone by the institution of the petition system. Presently candidates are picked by the polit- ical parties and the public is told to take its choice. Fifteen hundred names would seem a reasonable amount of signatures to place a persons name on the ballot.
 TERMS OF COMMISSIONS
 Terms of all commissioners should run concurrently with that of the Mayor. This would enable Mayor to completely rename the boards that are to work with him. A Mayor that IS reelected should have the power to reappoint anyone or all of the Com missioners if he SO desires.
 BUDGET HEARINGS
 As you may remember we urged that more tim be provided for study of a proposed budget, after it has been released for a final hear ing. Last fall the local papers re- leased figures on the budget three days before the aIdermanic hearing. Official figures were not available until twenty-four hours before the hearing. This understandable feat ure of our present charter could be eliminated by a provision in our new charter, that the final hearing date be not less than ten days after official figures have been made available to the public.

Economists Oppose Laws Against Labor

A group of 160 economists and political scientists, who are professors at prominent colleges and universities this week wrote Senator Robert A. Taft, chairman of the Senate Labor Committee, urging Congress not to pass punitive legislation designed to destroy many successful bargaining practices and jeopardize the rights of workers"
 We strongly oppose any legislation which attempts to wipe out the gains made in the last decade, granting workers somewhat more equal bar gaining position with industry" the letter said.

mind that this eliminate a new Mayor having to work whole year on a pre- vious Mayors budget. It should be noted however, that we favor April 1st only if this date will allow time enough for proper consideration of the budget by the public If an administra- ton is to take office January lst, and three months does not provide enough time for proper study, and unhurrled public hearings, we would then recom- mend May or June as the proper dates for the start of the fiscal year. The length of time necessary to properly set up and examine the budget should be the prime factor in determining the start of the fiscal year.
 CIVIL SERVICE
 We hope every consideration will be given by the Commission to our recommendations concerning trials of city employees. The right to de- mand a proper and just hearing should be guaranteed every city em- pIoyee. Our recommended hearing procedure must be included in the charter if we are to consider it a guaranteed right.
 PROTECTION OF SURPLUS
 MONIES
 We urge that provisions be made in the new charter to prevent an outgoing administration from need lessly spending any surplus that max exist. If the unanimous con- sent of the council or board of al- derman were necessary to spend any or all of the surplus it would prevent improper allocation of bud- get surpluses. This proposed re- striction should only apply from election day to the last day of a defeated administrations term of office. We feel certain that if any genuine emergency arose that en- dangered the citizens of the city, during this time a unanimous vote would be secured from the council. CENTRAL PURCHASING COM

the JOb Ot teaching their children.
 Organized labor will be rendering a distinct public service by crystaliz- ing public sentiment for elimination Of the neglect and abuses from which the nations teachers have been suf- fering.
 No Merit System
 This committee condemns the pro- posal made by local and State Cham bers of Commerce and other groups that teachers be rated under a so- called merit system and paid according to the score made on the rating scale. No objective rating scale has ever been devised or ever will be devised with sufficient accuracy to be used fairly as a basis for determining salaries.
 Under any system of passing sal aries on rating, the schools will be opened wide to political favoritism. Teachers will be compelled to re- sort to political scheming to secure salary increases.
 "The only fair system for teachers salaries is to base both salaries and increases on training and experience These are the only objective data or which differentiations in salaries car be made.
 "We also condemn the action of State and local Chambers of Com. merce in attempting to abolish teacher tenure laws where such laws exist. Elimination of the secur. ity of teachers will only result in aggravating the present crisis. Not only should tenure laws be retained but adequate retirement provision should be made for teachers as a further inducement to keep them in the profession.

School Patrol Camp: A Course in Saving Lives

MUCH OF THE safety at
NA street crossings of local
children going to and from
school can be traced to the
training given youthful lead
ers of the School Safety
Patrol at Camp Ernest w.
Brown, Scotland, Md.
At this pleasant retreat on
Chesapeake Bay, officers and
would-be officers of the patrol
from schools in Washington
and nearby Maryland and
Virginia get a week of rigor-
Gus study and practice on how
to keep their pedestrian
schoolmates from under the
wheels of passing traffic.
They learn how to organize
patrols, care of equipment,
pedestrian safety, operation
of patrols. They attend black
board safety talks and car
toon illustrations by Inspec-
tor Dick Mansfield, director
of The Stars school safety
program. These sessions are
interspersed with swimming,
boating, softball and the dis
position of enormous quanti-
ties of food. This is one of
five such camps about the
country for training key
members of the $4,000 safety
patrolmen in the United
States.
Most of the instruction at
Camp Brown is given by
Washington policemen as

year IS policemen were as
