GhOstly Experience

A man had the habit of coming
home three or four times a week a
little tipsy, so his wife determined
to teach him a lesson. With the
aid of sheet and floor lamp she
made a fair imitation of a ghost.
She went in and shook her husband.
"Wash thish?" he murmured.
"This is the banshee," was the
answer.
Shake" he said, II married
your sister,"

ILobor A dvise d
By Sen. L anger

Terre Haute, Ind.-(LPA)-Sen.
William LANCER (R., N. Dak.) one
of the three Republicans who voted
against the Taft Hartley law, last
week advised organized labor to
evade but not violate the anti
labor law.
Addressing the Indiana state
AFL convention, LANCER declared,
"There is no reason or excuse why
labor should now be on the defen-
sive and follow the punitive provi-
sions of the law. | do not advise
that you violate the law but | sug-
gest evasion of its terms in demo-
cratic way"
Urging labor to present a solid
front" against the law, LANCER
said, at was designed to wreck
unions and it would make slaves of
Indiana working men and women,
setting them back to the 18th CEN
tury." Right now, he emphasized, is
the time to prepare for the 1948
elections if labor wants to oust its
enemies from Congress.

Los AngeleS-(LPA)- - Sen. Rob-
ert Taft's west coast "pulse-taking'
junket has convinced reporters and
! Republican leaders of at least two
things, neither of which has en-
hanced his presidential possibilities
First, after a series of prime poll
tical blunders Taft is not the wholly
shrewd and astute campaigner they
expected. Second, Taft with his
complete lack of any platform fire,
his near-monotonic voice and un-
impressive personality is about as
lack -lustre a candidate as the COP
could select. even if Dewey has
to sit on a book to have his picture
taken he's got 10 times the oomph
of Taft" said one local Republican
leader.
The Ohioan appalled, his manag-
ers with three ponderous stumbles
in almost as many days. His
suggestion that Americans can
combat high food prices by eating
less. 2-His one-day concession,
following by quick backtracking,
that maybe Congress should mod
ify the Taft-Hartley laws ban on
the closed shop. 3-His flat con-
tention that it was President Tru-
man who dropped price controls
and that Truman dropped them
too soon.
On top of these boners Taft drew
biting editorial and liberal comment
following a speech to 1900 lunch
con guests at Town Hall where he
said that the Republican Party
would not support any program of
social welfare legislation until after
the 1948 election. Housing, health,
minimum wage and education meas
ures would be ignored therefore,
until 1949, Taft indicated.
Taft's reason for this sitdOwn
strike by the COP is that if such
laws were enacted they would be
administered by a Democratic ad-

told the meeting, "the Republicans
loath to proceed with any program
of this kind, if the initial setting up
of the program is assumed by the
present administration i. :" (Taft's
statement startled his fellow Re-
publican, Sen. George Aiken, of
Vermont, who described it as a
"mistake."O
The fiasco surrounding Taft's
concessions on the closed shop
made labor leaders here comment
wryly, "The NAM made him re-
member in hurry who whote his
anti-labor law" Following a confer
ence with Harry Lundberg, head of
the Sailors Union of the Pacific
AFL, Taft was quoted as saying
that he might be amenable to hav-

LIST OF STATE MEDIATION

Washington, ID. C.-The Depart

ability of compilation of media
tion and conciliation authorities set
up in 81 states and territories.
The list, compiled by the Division
of Labor Standards, is designed to

cause the AFL executive council
had failed to comply.
The AFL Teamsters, Carpenters
and Textile Workers were among
other affiliates to accede to the af-
fidavits. Denham's attitude toward
the whole controversy was resented
by labor lawyers. The general
counsel was quoted as saying that
he would not consider revising his
views. "If they want to bar the door
to the NLRB to the millions who
are underneath them," said Den
ham, there's nothing | can do
about it."
"We're going to do it for him."

pating in one of the test cases.

ing the Taft-H Hartley law amende'
to permit closed shop where bot
the employer and a majority of tn
workers voted for it. Crucial to tn,
question of whether Taft was mis-
understood or not was the fac
that this statement was confirmed
by members of the Senator's staff

and telephone calls from industrial

ments. Taft obeyed instruction!
and the next day declared that h
would not consider "any basic
change" in the anti-labor law ane
assured his listeners that he die
not propose "to let labor leaders
run the government"
After reading the press reactions
to his blunders Taft admitted plain
lively, "I've perhaps been too frank
in talking on issues" There was
little disagreement among report
ers on his train that the candidate
had made blunders. Columnist Mil
burn Akers of the Chicago Sun,
wrote, 'He has penchant, fire.
quently demonstrated, for sticking
his foot into his political mouth :.
His 'eat less statement caused con-
siderable agony among his advisors
\. The evidence increases that
the hush hush boys of whom there
are a number in the Taft entourage
are beginning to have an effect on
their candidate"
Taft is said to have become con-
vinced that the union picketing that
has greeted him everywhere on the
west coast is completely to his ad-
vantage. His advisors aren't wholly
convinced of the truth of this, how
ever. Indications mount that the
Taft-Hartley law may be the prime
issue in the 1948 campaign but it
was only two weeks ago that Taft
naively assured the country that
labor could not make a 1948 issue
of the Taft-Hartley law because
"there's nothing there to make an
issue Of"
1t is barely possible that Taft
still believes this. He has repeated
out here his idea that the vast ma
jority of the country's working
men and women are in favor of his
law.

AFL's Holiday Plan
May Become i. S. Law

Chicago-(LPA)-The AFL last
week was given credit for an idea
that may crystalline into unique
federal legislation this fall.
Sen. Scott w. Lucas d., Ill.,
said he would introduce legislation
in Congress to make election day
national holiday. Lucas attributed
the original idea to AFL President
William Green who had proposed
that organized labor take a holi-
day on election day to cast their
votes against Congressional sup
porters of the Taft Hartley law.
