DON'T BE DIVERTED

TT is EASY initiate policy of retrbuon but not so
to deal with the inevitable consequences of punitive
policies Legislation to regiment unions and to subject them
to costly and irritating possibilities of court proceedings
employers with Shyock foresadows trouble Ar
btrary legislation breeds abtraness the part of ad-
ministrators.
All international and national unions and their affat-
ed locals required to register with the Department of
Labor forms prepared by the Department The Depart
ment then ceres them to the Board having complied
with the requirement to file information specified by the
law The National Labor Relations Board is charged with
securing affdavitS from unions to the effect that Off
cas affiliated with the Communist Party Such
formy to registration need not prevent unions from de-
teImning how best to conduct their relations with their
employers.
The American Federation of Labor has long been con-
nced that the to sound lies through freedom
of contract and joint responsibility for collective bargaining
agents and that best aid by creating
vronment which free enterprise function effectively
The Taft-Hartley Act definitely mpedes collective bar
gaining In enactng this law Congress chose to depart from
American customs and procedures based
the Bill Of Rights. Curbs freedom of contract and
the segovernment of voluntary organizations pre-
scribed.
Despite the unfair action of Congress, we urge all
unions to fulfill their contracts and to avoid rash action
though justified The price of rights is faithful fulfill
ment of obligations and avoidance of arbitrary action.
We in difficult period dominated by tenn
poray forces We have greatly increased production

to be maintained workers incomes must be adjusted
proporonatey Those responsible for adjustments must
make decisions with discretion and fness American

Upon wisdom and vigilance during the coming
months depends the future of free trade unions and of
free enterprise itself

BETTER THAN A CRASH

MOST Americans constitutonaly opposed price
N troll They simply do not like to have the government
riding herd on prices.
That's why it's interesting = and important = to note
that increasingly large number of persons
ing that 1--WE may have to go back to something like the
OPA."
They talking that way because they angered
and frightened by the present price situation
The anger stems from the fact that prices keep going
up-despte the of those who killed OPA that
"only slight adjustment in the price structure would fol-
low the end of control
The fright results from increasing belief that the
ton is heading for economic disaster caused by
trolled initiation
The situation has become serious that it longer
be brushed aside with statement that everything will
work itself out OK"
Specific action is needed-and needed now
We believe it would be better for the nation if business
industry and agriculture would take voluntary action that
only would stop price increases but would result in price
reductions
We would rather have it that way-but price control
would be preferable to economic crash.
1t would be better for prices to be held in line by
governmental regulation than to be forced down-way down
later by unemployment.

PROMISES

Under the headline 1.-The Future with Confidence, the
National Manufacturers published this advertisement
in most of the countrs daily newspapers back in July 1916
The n A. NJ then leading the fight for removal of price
controls.
We think look back at the is worth remembering
when you read n A. M. ad. Here it is:
"'The members of the National Association of Manu-
facturers have intention of rocking the initiation boat
at any other time
"f OPA is permanently discontinued the production of
goods will mount rapidly and through free competition
prices will quickly adjust themselves to levels that
willing to pay.
"The great majority of American manufacturers
determined to produce much they can fast they
can, to sell at the lowest possible prices
American manufacturers also determined that such
price increases be necessary will be only those fully
justified by increases in and other production costs
"Then production gets rolling again, supply will catch
up with demand prices will be fair and reasonable to all
quality will be improved black markets will dsap
pear and America will enter the period of prosperity that
everyone has been hoping for"

JUST A WASTE OF MONEY

IT'S JUST waste of good money to send Congressional
committees around the country, holding hearings and
listening lot of opinion that may may not be of
portance concerning the high cost of living The time too
gessmen not skilled Investigators they seldom know
how to tackle such jobs
The coming hearing before the subcommittee the
Economic Report said to be in deadly earnest but that
doesn't change the facts Though may hard to get the
truth about living COSTS prices monopoes and such it will
be unable to establish anything like sound basis for ntel
gent conclusions
When Congress missed the boat completely, in its ter
rifle eageness to nue Organized Labor and to spank all
who reported friendly to the Unions be clearly
1t happened when the appropriations for the Bureau
of Labor Statistics whitfield to the very bone The
Bureau has not always found favor with the working peo
Pile, but that because it had enough money to
do the work for which it created 1t constantly de-
MED funds with which to make extensive and necessary stu
dies of living costs and the therefor Yet the Bureau
is the only agency of government capable of doing
hafhearted job
If Congress is honestly disposed to get the facts if it
wants the truth it will stop sending Congressman trips
all the nation and give the cash to the Bureau of Labor
Statistics Then may get somewhere.

APATHY MUST BE FOUGHT

HIGH the list of important aims of labor unions should

the feeling that there's in doing anything that action

apathy is available to local union officers and members

German Gals Stick
 To Short Skirts
(By Irene Simon)

BERLIN-SkirtS are still knee high in Berlin and show little in tention of moving down in the near future. An unofficial Asso- ciated Press poll of Berlin women show they're either uninformed, unintereSted, or just plain angry over the long hemline.
 "The new hemline," said Frau Junge, a typical housewife, could have been invented only by peo- pie who aren't in need"
 Haven't those women in the rich new world any feelings for us here?" snapped a young wife with two children and a husband still in prison camp. Its horrible enough that we have to wear such patched dresses. Now we'll prob ably seem more ridiculous because for lack of materials we can't fol- low the latest style"
 Frau Richter, a dressmaker who has been in the business since 1890, refused to get excited when shown fashion pictures fir o m America and Paris. She said they are typical of postwar trends.
 After the first world war fash ions went crazy too." she recalled.
 Leading fashion houses in Der lin, whose customers are mainly allied personnel, haven't yet be- gun the new hemline but all in tend to show longer dresses at their November showings.
 Herr Gehringer, head of the city's most popular fashion house,
The Nome nugget., 1947-12-05

said the few German customers who ask for the new style are fi- ancees of Americans who intend to go to the States soon.
 And the only American women interested in the new hemline are also those who are going back home soon," he said. 50 far oth- CTS have stuck to the old hem lines"
 The head designer of Horn and Co.,, another top dress house, agreed that the present skirt line is too short but contended it is inn possible because of shortage of materials to follow the new style. Among his allied clientele, he said, the Russian women are the keenest followers of the long hem line. He said:
 Our Russian customers are in tenselY interested in the latest styles. We're already making long, CT skirts for most of them.
 Some American women have asked for the new style, but the majority are still sitting tight and waiting for developments. All our British customers stick to the short skirt, while the French of course told us about the new style before we had even heard of it."
 Most of the men interviewed on the new style refused to com ment, while those who did com ment said things which couldn't be printed.

Training Planned For Greek Workers

ATHENS, Greece, (AD - With hopes of augmenting the nations supply of skilled and semi-skilled workers, the American Mission for Aid to Greece is collaborating with the ministry of national econ omy and representatives of educa- tional, industrial and labor groups to establish a vocation educational program, Dwight c. Griswold, AMAG chief, says.
 Special attention is being given to the formation of an emergency phase to absorb some of the l5,O00 excess civil servants slated for re- lease from government jobs be- tween now and the first of the year, he says.
 The program will provide also for on-the-job training, Short-term courses for part-time workers, and the rehabilitation of general, long range systems utilizing the few existing vocational schools as base.
