Montana labor news., 1947-09-18

mittee on the Economic Report is said to be IN
deadly earnest, but that doesn't change the
facts. Though it may try hard to get the
truth about living costs, prices. monopolles
and such, it will be unable to establish any
thing like a sound basis for intelligent con-
illusions.
When congress missed the boat complete
", in its terrific eagerness to injure Organic
ed Labor and to spank all who were reported
friendly to the unions, can now be clearly
seen. 1t happened when the appropriations
for the Bureau of Labor Statistics were whit
tied to the very bone. The bureau has not
always found favor with the working people,
but that was because it never had enough
money to do the work for which it was Great
ed. 1t was constantly denied funds with
which to make extensive and necessary stu
dies of living costs and the reasons therefor.
Yet, the bureau is the only agency of govern
ment capable of doing even a half-hearted
job.
If Congress is honestly disposed to get the
facts, if it wants the truth, it will stop send
ing congressman on trips all over the nation,
and give the cash to the Bureau of Labor Sta
~tistics. Then we may get somewhere.
Montana labor news., 1947-09-18
Anti Union Bosses Will Use
New NLR Board

A survey shows that only a trickle of cases
is heading for the new board. Unlike the
Wagner act. which was used by employees to
secure their constitutional rights. the NAM
Taft-Hartley act will be used in the main by
EMPLOYERS to circumscribe the constitutional
rights of their employees. Every attempt OF
a union representative to organize men local
ly will be cause for complaint on the part OF
an INSCRIPTIONS employer, charging that
force intimidation and coercion is being used
by the union to organize.
Already the Sentry Coal Mining Co., of
Kansas City has filed q suit at Owensboro,
KY, for $125, 900 damages against the UNIV,
charging the mine workers union caused, in
duced, forced and compelled employees OF
the Jackson Construction Co. to quit work on
a new Sentry mine located near Echols, Ky.
This is but a forerunner of what can be ex-
pected in every industry where designing en-
ployers thing that through the medium Of fill
ing a lawsuit they can intimidate a union to
q degree that will cause the union to cease
organizing efforts.
Meanwhile, internal reorganization pro-
ceeded of personnel at both NLRB and the
