Warn Prospective Settlers About

By Ross Cunningham

Associate Editor, Seattle Times)
 ANCHORAGE, There IS one thing that cannot be overempha- sized to prospective Alaska set tiers:

 Anchorage's ball park is the best illustration of this point. Peo- pie are sleeping there in sleeping bags.

WHO OWNS BUSINESS?

"Who owns American corpora tions?" That was the leading sen tence of an Associated Press story released recently. Point of t:,is story was that the people own business. Stockholders of five big companies in representative fields added together number l,684,8o3, or enough people to make the fourth largest city of the United States. That is correct, the people do own our corporations. IL is right for people to own our Lusi. ness.
 have often contended that in America you have the people own ing the wealth and resources of a nation in much more direct and complete manner than you could ever have under any of the social istic dream Utopias. This is the straight answer to the Communis- tic dodge that the people arg the state, to which must be added the fact that in totalitarian countries the state owns the people. In America the people, in very real way, own the wealth and resourc- CT of the nation.

son owns more than Is per cent of all General Motors stock.

son owns more than Is per cent of all General Motors stock. While it is remembered that sometimes large blocks of stock will be owned by other companies, it must be kept in mind that these companies in turn have many stockholders. Notable also is the fact that many educational, char liable, and religious institutions, as well as non-profit associations and foundations, are on the rolls of "big" business. No one knows just how many persons may be dependent upon the successful op- erations of our corporations. In the truest sense, all of us are, either directly or indirectly.
 Economic Freedom
 Some Communist is likely to say at this point that he cherishes the prospect of all these "soul- less" corporations being owned by, and operated for, the state. If it's revenue he has in mind, we recall that only once during the six-year period from 1885 to l941 did tax receipts collected by Uncle Sam from individuals exceed that from corporations. Many other costs of the state are borne by this peoples business. Besides various excise taxes, we would have to add also much of what is called income taxes" of individuals.
 Most of the nations wealth has its source in the enterprise of a carefully conducted business. Nat ural resources must first feel the hands of the men at the wheels of machines. I cannot imagine why any free American would wish to trade what we have in this coun- try for any part of the vague eco- homie systems that have produced only failure. Not only have these other systems failed to produce real blessings for their people in the form of higher living stand ards, but they have brought slav- cry instead of economic freedom.

The New Labor Law
(Rocky Mountain News)

(Rocky Mountain News)
 The Senate, overriding President Truman's veto, made law of the TaftHartley labor bill And the Su- preme Court upheld the socalled anti-Petrillo Act Thus day brought two events of profound signfi- to the future of labor relations in the United States.
 It marked, we think the end of long era in which organized labor, pampered protected and made power full by an indugent government, has had the upper hand and has behaved with far too little consideration for public welfare and it's best interests. It marked we hope, the beginning of and bet ter era.

 If they want timely example of the lack of wisdom

 must face trial and the authority of Congress is sustained That's thought food for the union lawyers Who-juS as the Liberty Leagues 58 famous lawyers did with the Wagner Act in 1935-are taking it upon themselves to declare the Taft-Hartley Act unconsu tional.
 Employers too would do we'll to think soberly today There should be goating the enactment of this law. Above all there should be effort to take undue advantage of it's provisions And who try to unionbustng instrument will learn quickly that the American people-strongly as they demanded cor rective legislaton-w rally with equal strength in defence of labors essential rights and demand new straints the power of predatory homogeneous.
 Congress must be viglant in watching the operation of the law and prompt to correct defects nstices and wrongs they appear The promise has been made that responsible conscientious unonism not to be hurt or weakened. That promise must be kept.
 Upon President Truman, who found good in 1t and who called it unworkabe falls chief responsibility for enforcement and administration of this law He could insure it's failure, if he were so disposed
 We trust and believe he will seek to give fair trial and fair opportunity to succeed in its associated pur poses That is his duty, that his judgment of the Tat-artey bill has been Overruled by majOrltleS of 68 to 25 in the Senate and 331 to 83 in the House If agemen labor and accept in good faith the proclaimed intention of the law, it can be made to work as program for industrial peace and sound continuing national prosperity.

COP Choice: Cut Taxes For Next Year, Or Play Politics

REPUBLICANS IN CONGRESS can give the people a tax cut, effective Jan. next If they want to-
 They have let the Presidents veto stand and may do nothing but talk about it, and thereby keep alive an is sue.
 No doubt about it. it's good issue-to get votes The Republicans tried to give tax cut to 49 million income tax payers effective July The President vetoed it. and the House sustained the veto To voters who read the run, and haven't followed the nuances of what has happened it looks though the Republicans are on the side of the taxpayer, and the Democrats against
 But the full truth may spread It will show that the Republicans by their blunders and politcs-playing strategy largely responsible for this mpasse They made their first big mistake by failing to do their duty under the reorganization law which required Congress within three weeks after it convened to fix an overall ceiling on government spending for the next fiscal year
 The Republicans haven't yet fixed that ceiling, and they control both houses of Congress They are still fouting the law, still shirking their responsibility
 Their second mistake in trying to make the tax cut retroactive to Jan. last
 Their third was in delaying action five months and grudglngly compromising ate-on the July date All the time there plenty of Democrats who would have gone along, had the COP been willing to make the tax cut effective at the start of the calendar year
 The Republicans chose instead to try to embarrass the President To those who know the score it would appear the Republicans, themselves cannot be unem- barrassed by what has happened.
 It is still not too late to end tax uncertainty and as taxpayers that their burdens next year will be lower If Congressional leaders will bring out the same tax b with only change make the effective date Jan next it would attract much Democratic support and probably would be passed.
 Our guess is that the President would sign the bill His principal objection to the vetoed b-and good one too-was that it did not leave enough surplus for retirement of public debt.
 That objection would not apply to the bill In the unlikely event that vote to override became necessary plenty of Democrats would help the Republicans do the job.

 This is generally true of Amer ican corporations, and when you add the stockholders to the em- ployees, you strengthen your pie ture of America as a place where the masses have "vested" interest in the wealth of the nation. The stockholders of the richest rail- road in the land, the Pennsyl- vania, outnumber the employees almost four to three.
