Strikebreaking instrument
A little more than a month has elaps-
ed since the passage OF the Taft-Hart-
ley act. In that month many of the
largest unions in the country have
said they will not use the new NLRB,
the first Taft-Ilartley ~iniunctions have
been granted. and the first of a long
series of anti union suits have been
filed.
Gerald Van Arkel, formerly general
counsel for the NLRB. whose resigna-
ton from that job followed by a few
days the enactment of the new law,
declared that not only is the new labor
law yalueless to organized labor, but
the new NLRB is now actually a
"strikebreaking instrument in the
hands of the employers"
Taking the new law apart. Van Ark

find it worthwhile to use the NLRB

PRACTICAL economists view the

peaks and valleys. They have
come to accept the ups and downs

trends that may take place in our
changing, dynamic economy. But
the query is put: How can we
avoid depressions? Must we take
these periodic back : sets for
granted? Is there not danger for
America in d~epressions?
These questions are sometimes
honestly asked by critics of what
they call "boom and bust" CAPT.

depressions. They're full of dy-
Mantle. We might wish to avoid

If the Dodgers have not been note

past, they have now become base
balls outstanding exponent of a much
more significant kind of fair play, ra-
cial tolerance, which is something that
all true Americans, even those who
cannot distinguish a ball from a strike,
will warmly applaud. This is not to
say that Robinson is being used as an
experiment in public relations; he is
in the big leagues because he deserves
to be there. He led the International
league last year in hitting and in other
departments"
Much o fthe credit for the Brook

have to offer. They point out, that
Colored players, who have a keen
sense of the dramatic, can make the
humblest pop-hy interesting to the
spectators-a box-ofice consideration

They are the daughters of Mr.. and

their own community" The town and
its founder are hailed by Laura v.
Hammer in The Readers Digest for
June
Miss Hammers article, condensed
from St. Louis Post Dispatch, says
that North Heights is a town of home
owners, not renters. Eighty-year-old
Matthew Bones" Hooks, its founder,
was bonn of parents who had been
slaves. His lifelong dream of an ex-
clusively Negro community was real
lied after overcoming many obstacles
along the way. Well known in Amar-
lilo, largely because of his ability in
breaking wild horses to the saddle,
Hooks persuaded the mayor to adj
vance the money to buy a tract Of los
acres for his proposed all-Negro town.
After the big opening-day sale of lots,
however, a slump in land values
caused many buyers to regret their
down payments.
With his lifetime savings Hooks
built a two-story building on the tract
and adapted it as a meeting place for
Negroes. By degrees he succeeded in
getting a water main, a gas main and
electricity extended to the city. Later
a paved street was run through the
development.
The town grew slowly but surely.
Today" the article states, natural
gas for cooking and heating, tele-
phones, a store, a post Office and a bus
line to the city make life comfortable"

A static America, however, would
not be a progressive, inventive,
virile America.
Upward THERE ARE freedoms
Still which thrive in the dy-
manic economy, and not
the least of them is freedom of
opportunity. Almost within our
own generation the working man
has had his hours cut nearly one
third. Real wages of the un-
discovered" common = man have
tripled in many industries. Sec
ondary school enrollments have
increased ten times, and college
education is available to every
one. The physical comforts and
the luxury goods consumed by
Americas common-man are the
envy of the whole world. All this
has taken place, despite depres-
sions.
This is not to say that Amer
lea should accept serious business
recession WllllOuI lidhlllS ally
effort to cushion their effect. A
wealth Of experience from the un-
certain Thirties should enable
Congress to meet future emer-
gencies with more success. We
shall be able to avoid the mistake
Of blaming overproduction, for we
now know that to admit overpro-
duction is to admit that we can
offer a higher standard of living
than our people can accept.
America can keep going ahead
on the climb upward toward
heights now undreamed of, if
we rededicate ourselves to hon.
est effort in understanding and
using the system that has
brought US so much. Recognizing
the laurels that belong already to
the American way, we may scale
heights that yet have never been
surveyed. Let US not just take
depressions for granted; let's
take them in stride.

"CHRISTIAN FAIR PLAY" REA-
SON, FOR NEGROES IN BIC
LEAGUES, SAYS CATHOLIC
NEWSPAPER

CINCINNATI, o., May 22-(Spe-
ciale"Christian fair play should be
the first reason for admitting Colored
players to the major leagues" accord
ing to an editorial in the Telegraph
Register, official newspaper of the
Catholic Archdiocese of Cincinnati,
published here. The article asserh
that Jackie Robinson, Brooklyn Dod-
gers Negro first baseman, is in the
big leagues because he deserves to be
there" and noted that his hiring is due
in part to the efforts of Father Ray
mond J. Campion, Brooklyn Catholic
priest, who for some time has cam
paigned in favor of deserving Negro
players.
The editorial is as follows:
The debated Dodgers Of Brooklyn
have reinstated themselves in the good
graces of their fans as quickly as you
could say Jackie Robinson. They have
done SO by giving a contract to a Ne
gro player by that name-the first
Negro in major-league baseball since
