mined effort in several directions
to block out foreign products.
Tariffs, quota restrictions, monetary
curbs, all the weapons Of trade con-
troll, are heading the world trend,
he said. IF the trend Is not re-
versed," the President added, "the
Government Of the United States
will be under pressure, sooner or
later, to use these same devices in
the fight for markets and raw
materials"
In this situation, he explained,
the proposed world trade charter
offers hope, for it would limit the
present freedom Of governments to
impose detailed administrative reg
ulations on their foreign trade"
Further, the President amplified,
the trade agreement negotiations
that will accompany consideration
of the charter should enable coun-
tries now in difficulty to work out
Of it 'by affording them reader ac-
cess to the markets of the world"
II the negotiations are to be sue
oessful, Mr.. Truman pointed out,
this country must be prepared to
make concessions to get them from
others. At the same time, he
stressed that the program will bol-
ster American trade. Imports will
be larger, but 50 will exports. Many
people, 1t Is true, are afraid Of Inn
ports" he said. They are afraid
because they have assumed that We
cannot take more products from
abroad unless we produce just that
much less at home. Fortunately,
that Is not the case. The size of our
market Is not forever fixed. 1t is
smaller when we attempt to isolate
ourselves from the other countries Of
the world"
Dependent on Foreign Trade.
Millions of Americans, the Presi-
dent said, are dependent on our for
eign trade. He cited, for example,
farmers, who had the advantage of
a 5000, ,000, 900 export business in
1946. IF we should lose q substan-
tial part of this foreign market, the
incomes of more than 5000, COO farm
families would be materially re-
duced," he asserted. The President
closed with an admonition to those
who would undermine" the prin-
ciple Of reciprocal trade for par
tisan advantage" to take care. The
times and temper Of the people have
changed, Mr.. Truman said, and "the
slogans of 1880 or of 1896 are sadly
out Of date"
On the last of his three days in
Mexico, the President yesterday ira
veled nearly 500 miles by air and
motor on aI-day sightseeing tour,
received members Of the American
colony at the officers club in q
late afternoon reception and round
ed out this busy program with o.
private dinner at the residence Of
President Aleman, who comes to-
Washington next month to return
the visit. AS was the case On the
two previous days in this country,
the President was greeted by enthu-
siastic crowds throughout his jour-
ney yesterday.
The motor ride took him to the
ancient Pyramids of Teotihuacan
and rude adobe villages along the
route turned out the natives In
full force, some times with music,

the United States Chamber Of Com
merce told the House Labor Com
mittee that employers cannot rest
easy" until Congress rewrites parts
OF the Wagner Act to wipe out any
question about its intent.
Criticizes Method Of Interpretation.
Herman w. Steinkraus, chairman
OF the chambers Labor Relations
Committee, said vast areas" of the
Wagner Act have been left to in
depreciation by Mr.. Herzog's board.
He said that because OF shifts In
the boards policies the employer has
never known when . long -estab-
Nshed administrative ruling would
suddenly be changed with new and
unforeseen results"
Mr.. Herzog pointed to several
recent changes in Interpretation of
the Wagner Act, saying present
members Of the board are acutely
aware of the fact that all the solu-
tons that seemed appropriate un-
der the industrial conditions that
existed some years ago need no
longer be followed in administering
an act that wisely permits fiexibility
and gradual change"
He referred to the ruling on bar
gaining certif1cation strikes and
rulings which allow employers more
freedom in discussing union affairs
with their employees.
Could Start Nation Wide Strike.
Mr.. Herzog said widespread changes
In the Wagner Act, which protects
the workers rights to join unions
and bargain for working conditions,
could set of q Nationwide round
Of strikes.
He added the strike wave could
materialize even though Congress
adopted legislation under which mo
strike could be lawful" He said
wide changes in labor would have
the following results:
AT best, several years of uncer-
tainty and court litigation would
flow from enactment of many Of
the proposals that amend the act.
Attacks Ball Strike Penalties.
AT worst, American workingmen
and their representatives would so
resent the destruction of their rights
they have so recently won that work
stoppages would sweep the country"
Mr.. Herzog struck hardest at
strike penalties which would be i'm
posed under bill sponsored by
Senator Ball, Republican, of Min
nesota and under another measure
Senator Ball wrote with Senators
Taft, Republican, of Ohio and
Smith, Republican, of New Jersey.
He also urged rejection of SEN
ator Balls legislation to prohibit
industry-wide bargaining and closed
shop agreements, which permit hir-
ing of only union members.
Declaring that revising the Wag-
ner Act will mot solve the primary
problems that trouble our fellow
citizens in 1947," Mr.. Herzog said:
"Today's need is to encourage
industry and labor to sit down and
reason together, and not to turn
the clock back to the time when
there was no precept that they do

The time for having the last
laugh probably never arrives 70
might club circles. The man who is
| so wrong tonight while you are 90
right may easily reverse things to-
morrow night. There Is q man
around here, however who ought
| to be permitted to raise his eye-
lbrows and snicker in the direction
| of those who laughed first.
He is Sam Schanker, the man
who thought it would be agood idea
| to open the Club Cairo last fall.
lat the time, there were others who
did not think too highly Of the
idea Mr.. Schanker had. The party
was over, they said, shaking their
heads. Washington was no place
| TO open night club. Better Mr.. 8.
should have stuck to his super
markets. Why, he wouldn't last
until Thanksgiving.
The Club Cairo served q tasty
Thanksgiving dinner to q number
OF customers, but the chorus around
town was not stilled. The Cairo
was through now, the knowing ones
said. The pre- christmas slump
would hit the Cairo right in the
teeth and it would never greet the
new year. Well, it might greet the
new year just to get the New Year
eve business, but it would not last
Il long after that. After the Cairo,
along with every one else, entered
1947, not week passed without its
rumor that the Cairo was done for,
as of the next day.
Then Harry Anger, who had been
producing the Cairo's first-rate
shows, was advised by his doctor to
take it easy and cut his activities
down to one full-time job. Mr. An
ger chose theatrical agency work in
New York and the rumor chorus
swelled. This is the end, the wise
ones said. Schanker's through.
Somehow this word that the Cairo
was done for never got to Mr..
lSchanker. He just kept right on
operating the. place.
Patsy Kelly and Barry Wood were
the .Cairo's attractions about the
time of Mr.. Anger's departure and
Mr.. S. learned a fast lesson about
show business. Entertainers In the
name" class attract customers. Sam
would prefer "big names" entertain
ers nobody ever heard of yet, be-
cause their salaries are lower, but
their box-office draw also is lower,
he has discovered.
Having learned his lesson and
never having believed any of the
rumors that the Club Cairo was due
to close the following day, Mr..
Schanker is making plans for the
season to come. In few weeks
the club will close for the summer.
Before it reopens in the autumn, its
boss says, it will be considerably en-
larged by the addition OF a balcony
facing the dance foor-stage. Star
of the first fall show will be "big
name" entertainer number of
people have heard of-Ted Lewis.
And Sophie Tucker probably will
be along not too much later.
