RECLUSE AND REFUSE

The National Fire Protection Association sponsor of the annual Spring Clean-Up Campaign, recently held in communities across the nation charges that ninety per cent of our reord breaking fire loss could be prevented by cleaning rubbish and by correcting other obvious fire hazards.
 Recently the nations newspapers gave much cov- craze to the human interest phases of the death of two aged recuses in an old New York City mansion that they crammed with waste paper and junk that required days to remove.
 Pathetic as was the lonely and tragic end of the Collyer brothers there is deeper significance unmentoned in the public print If a monument were needed to mark bad housekeeping practices which serve as disease and fire threat to the com- munity no better could be found than that much publicized rubbsh-filled New York mansion Death uncovered mans home is his castle but no private individual should be allowed to maintain firetrap that is a menace to his neighbor and community It is certainly a sad commentary present day civic administration that such unsafe fire condition could exist right under the eyes of public officials in Americas largest city.
 Periodic inspections by fire departments and com- mlnity rubbish removal drives like the recent clean up campaign will go far in removing the fire hazard of rubbish from communities.

Future Newsprint
(Editor and Publisher


 Reports by officials of the American Newspaper Publishers Association last week reveal there will be very little if any, newsprint available to U s. publishers in l947 than in 1946
 That's not exactly news-it has been stated here before-but it does emphasize the continuing nature of newsprint shortage and the importance of planning for a larger future supply.
 Newspaper publishers must take an interest in developing of supply if they at all interested in their economic future. Alaska holds the greatest potential and the most promise
 E. H. Jenison, publisher of the Paris Gll) Beacon News and U. s. Congressman from Illinois, told the ANPA members some of the problems involved in es- tabshng newsprint industry in Alaska. member ings statehood for Alaska MT. Jenison said
 "One of the problems that think we have some times lost sight of is that the barrier to venture capital in Alaska is the matter of resolving the great problem of disposition of the public lands up there. The Department of the Interior and the Department of Agriculture must be brought into the picture to resolve that problem. Within recent weeks there has bosn every indication that there is spirit oi interest in it that may be helpful The claims of the original residents of Alaska the aboriginal claims holding of supply for pulp. If that can be solved there is every possibility of Alaskan news print.
 T want to suggest to newspaper publishers across the country who interested in this problem that they bring to bear such influence they have within their power to develop the realization that the de- partments of government must enter into spirit of accord cooperation and press with all rapdity this matter of solving the claims our public lands in that Territory if to make progress toward news print in 4-aska'

man panel to hear cases. This should greatly expedite the work of the Board In fact, it's my opinion that the Senate bill makes vast improvement in the NLRB."
 Taft beamed delightedly at this Democratic tribute to his efforts. However, Hartley and especially Landis continued to insist that a separation ot the Boards powers would be better all around, for la bor as well as employers.
 The militant hoosier Congress man also insisted that the Senate version of the "unicn shop be ap- proved instead of the much tougher version railroaded through his own chamber
 The House bill goes too far. I'll admit" said Landis. Under it an employer can do just about as he pleasec. He can prevent complete union organization of plant, even though a majority of the workers want to join and bargain collec- lively through a union.
 "Of course, reasonable employ Cr wouldn't do this, but we've got to make sure the unreasonable ones are held in line The workers should be allowed to appeal to the NLRB for the right to form union shop, as the Senate bill provides" Landis contended.

TWO LABOR-BAITERS

Loudest opposition to Taft came from labor batting Republican Re- presentative Clare Hoffman of Michigan. Democrat Graham Bar den of North Carolina also held out for the entire House bill. Hoffman did most Of the talking for this duet, firing frequent shots at labor Reds" He contended that unions into which Communists have infil- trated should be divested of bar gaining privileges and other rights
 That's absurd,' declared Lesin- ski. I'm against Communists too, but I'm not in favor of punishing the great majority of workers in a union if, through no fault of theirs, two or three Communists happen to bore in. That's something you can't always control. Let's leave out the witch-hunting,"
 Lesinski also took issue with New Jerseys Hartley and Indiana's Lan- dis when they held out for separ- ating the administrative and judi cial functions of the Labor Board. Hartley and Landis explained that many employers were complaining that the NLRB now acted as judge prosecutor and jury. There fore, the Board should stick to ju- iol itodonnyNd- ent administrator to supervise re- gional NLRB lawyers and the pros ecut;on of cases.
 Well, I am against separation of powers" put in Lesinski. That's one thing about the Senate bill I wholeheartedly approve. It doesn't monkey with basic operations. but it does provide for an extra three
