phone Union Today

WASHINGTON, April 22-(P)-
Government conciliators, starting
a fresh effort to end the 16-day-
old telephone strike, arranged to-
night to confer tomorrow morning
with Joseph A. Beirne, president
OF the striking union.
The $50 am. (EST) session will
be in the office of Edgar War
ren, chief cf the Cancellation SER
vice.
No information was given out
on what will be taken up, though
there have been indications that
the government is about ready to
come up with a new settlement
formula.
In addition, officials are con-
sidering the reopening of negotla-
tions in Washington between the
strikers and two important seq
ments of the phone industry -
southwestern Bell and the long
lines department of the Amerl-
can Telephone and Telegraph COM
pany.
The union leaders have been
asking the labor department to is
sue a public statement calling
upon the telephone industry to
make a wage offer. This the de-
partment has refused to do.
At the same time the National
Federation OF Telephone workers:
l. Sought the help of state pub
hc service commissions. and got
at least one rebuff, from the Dis
trict of Columbia commission.
2. Insisted in the face Of denials
that the New Jersey Bell Tele-
phone company had made 7 IL
cents-an-hour wage boost offer and
''crawled out of it,
President J. A. Beirne OF the
federation has asked each state
public service commission to tell
the American Telephone and Tel
egraph company and its member
firms that it will consider wage
increases as factor in weigh
ing any requests for higher rates.
The public utilities commission
here in Washington replied that

Those who were arrested said that
they were deliberately attempting
to test constitutionality of the seq
regation laws.
However, after the meeting,
Governor Cherry emphatically de-
MED that the Chapel Hill situa-
ton was discussed. The trustees,
he said, merely heard routine re-
ports from the chancellors of the
three units of the university, and
studied recommendations for the
filling of vacancies among FAC
ulty members, and discussed fac
ulty salary schedules.

THAT is an inflamm able state

today supports the President and
the United States"
Johnson, author OF several op-
position amendments, argued that
Congress is underwriting mill

vites Russian retaliation.
The days debate developed fresh
Democratic opposition to the pro-
gram.
Senator McKel1ar D-Tenn.), 70.
year-old dean of the Senate, SAID
it is likely to cost more than the
United States can afford.
If Russia offers contest, what
fight we would have!" he said.
Senator Byrd D-Vao said he
was voting against foreign pol
icy proposal OF the President for
the first time because the pro
iected aid represents only "a tiny
rivulet in the mighty stream Of
American dollars that Will no"
to foreign countries.
Denying that the proposal by
masses the United Nations, Senator
Hatch D-N.M.) said it offers the
best hope for peace.
IF Turkey goes Communistic-
do not deceive yourse1ves-then
all that part OF the world goes
Communistic," he declared.
Senator Ball (R-Minn.) support

the time may have arrived wnen
the United States must consider
either an effort to modify the
veto Russia has used so frequently
or reorganization of the United
Nations without the Soviets.
Senator O'Daniel (D-Tex. said
he is "in favor of cleaning up our
government first and not engag-
ing in a spending spree to aid
foreign nations.
Senator Lucas D-Ill) replied
that the Presidents program will
lead us to freedom and peace,
but Senator Pepper tD-Flao said
it will involve a "breach Of the
solemn covenant of the United
Nations"
AS. the Senate finally sent the
measure to the House, it provides
for $40O, 900, 900 expenditure be-
fore July l, 1948 in gifts, loans or

Sounds Confusing
1t must all sound very confusing
to the housewife. Price shifts have
become every day occurances.
Prices rise. Prices fall. Prices rise.
Washington, April 22-(Associ-

York were down three and one
half to six cents per pound follow
ing similar drops in Wisconsin,

But away from food for a mo-
ment, take the appliance and cloth
ing industries for instance. From
Washington yesterday: 1.-TWO cleo
trical appliance manufacturers re-
ported that higher material and

No doubt the housewife, and the
man who pays the bill, wonder
sometime just what the reason Is
for all this. Perhaps, they no doubt
think, there must be some reason
for all this p and down business.

NORTHWEST ENTERPRISE
While sitting in one of the
Tacoma Motion Picture theaters
last Thursday, between the per-
iods of the picture, there was
flashed on the screen the announ-
cement that this week marks the
observance of brotherhood Week.
This following the Race Lelations
Week.
Following this announcement
there appeared on the screen a
message of President Truman,
giving his Interpretation of the
meaning of Brotherhood. This
message in turn was succeeded
by several outstanding movie
stars.
There seems to be a deep I'M
dercurrent of the awareness of
man of his failures on this score.
He knows that if he does not
resurrect himself he will be drawn
by an under tow and swallowed
up in its vortex.
Returning home I opened my
book on comparative religions

the thankless task of planting
their griefs that out Of them
someone commiserated with her
may grow a living thing - a tree
which will give shade and COM
fort to the weary traveller, a
place of beauty in the world,
where the song of nesting birds
may bring solace to the ear as
the leafy branches give rest to
the heart They tend their sor-

made them warm-hearted, ready
to give to others even that which
they may never possess for them

To bear a sorrow bravely is
noble thing. But, | think, to
bear a burden graciously is the
better part. Once I knew woman
who was living a life of what
seemed utter drudgery, added to
by the ingratitude and queruIous-
ness of the ones whose burden
she was trying to lift. When
on her lot and commented on her
cheerful, considerable attitude In
face of provocation, she said:
"Well, if l am going to be a
martyr the least | do is to be
gracious one. There is no sense
In both of us being uncomfort-
able"
I've remembered that, and in
my own dark hours have tried
to follow her teachings. She plant
ed a living tree whose seed has
been sown far and wide.

A Cross, or a Torch,
Or a Living Tree?
BY RUTH TAYLOR

Each of US has a burden to
carry. Each of us has load that
seems too great for our strength.
With one 1t may be a burden of
grief, with another poverty, with
another ill-health or heavy
responsibilities. heartaches, misun-
derstanding, stifled talents, ex-
pected opportunities that never
materiali2e.
What we make of these bur-
dens. depends upon ourselves
alone. They are our load of wood,
which we alone can carry.
To some their burdens are a
ocrss under which the body is
bowed. The valiant may strive to
carry the cross. but each step
becomes more difficult as the load
weighs down the spirit and tires
the heart. A few glory in martyr
dom = but being a martyr is a
lonely life.
To other their burdens are a
torch. Out of the dead wood OF
their lives they make a flaming
beacon to light the way ahead
for those who follow. They use
their sorrows bravely as they face
them bodily. The light they give
forth is the high flame of cour
age, Frightening the paths O
those around them.
Still others make of their bur.

that had been exoGCnded on the
screen, encompassing excerpts
from the projects:
Confiucius, Buddah, Moses. Jesus
mohan med, and Baha'u 'ullah.
When the eNeonent of the
Bahai Faith, Ablal BAHIA, visited
the American con ircnt in 1912
he was received everywhere with
the utmost cordially by the fol-
lowers of every creed and clan,
strange as it may seem, he ad-
dressed many church and other
organizations. Countless were his
generous deeds and words. His
definition of the Brotherhood of
men was Religion in AZ attitude
toward God reflected in life by
mankind"
The journey to this country
from Palestine of Abdul-Baha was
an expense which no one shared.
Indeed he instructed that all Of
ferings be given to the poor. He
graciously declined the offer of
gifts for he was interested in no
material thing of any kind.
Upon the departure of ABDUL
BAHIA, this is what he said of
America. America: May this land
of Democracy be the first nation
to establish the foundation of In
ternational agreement. May it be
the first nation to praclaim the
unity of man. May it be the first
to unfurl the standard of the
Most Great Peace"
