Overhead Hortense had hung
sign with the words lettered
on 1.-THE Taft-Hartley Law.
During the show the demon

ed, "The lettering is crooked"

"So's the law"

SINCE that first performance
Hortense has become a. fami-
liar figure around Chicago.
She's appeared at union meet
ingS, at strike headquarters, on
the picket lines, at sidewalk
shows in front of the Cory
Company'S offices in downtown
Chicago and on street COR
ners in the loop. Wherever she
goes Hortense and her puppets
tell the story of the Cory strike.
Recently Hortense added a
new act to her routine. This
time she dresses up one of her
puppets as Santa Claus. The
other remains the same Cory
worker. In this show the Cory
worker is heard calling out:
There's a Santa Claus in
that Taft-HartleY Act. The
bosses get the presents and the
workers get the sack"

AS a result of a Tribune story
which the union described as
distortion of the facts" the
strikers also asked their officers
to reconsider their decision per-
hitting newspaper representatives
to attend strike meetings.
THE Tribune story, which
claimed that No. los president,
John j. Pitch, had "ridiculed" the
Chicago Federation of Labor. was
denounced by George N. Bante,
secretary treasurer, as ian utter
falsehood intended to separate us
from other AFL unionists."
Actually, Bante said, Pitch had
assured the strikers that members
of other AF'L unions were on
their side and would support
them.
Heartening to the printers was
news that New York Topographic
cal Union No. 6 had decided upon
referendum on one per cent
assessment to aid the strikers
here.
AT THE same time, represen-
tativeS of the publishers and the
printers began meeting with

Mayor Kennedy in an attempt to
settle the strike.
The printers were represented
by Pilch, Joseph Rhoden, chair
man of the unions wage negotiat-
ing committee, and by A. j. Ger
ard, j. c. R h d es, and N. C.
Burns.
AS the strike continued here,
however, NLRB hearings on the
publishers charges against the
international Typographical I'm
ion and its local were to be re-
opened on Dec 10 at Washing

This year. with the expira-

She had never heard of the
Cory strike. That night, after
work, Hortense phoned the I'M
ions headquarters and spoke
to Irene Berman, the Field Or
ganizer assigned to the Cory
situation.
The next day, Hortense quit
her job and then went over to
strike headquarters to volun-
teer her help.
But what could she do? Hor-
tense decided the best thing
she could do was to return to
her work as a demonstrator-
this time on the side of the
union. She had originally got
ten her job demonstrating the

was largely devoted to the strike.
The papers leading article on
the strike was written by Eu-
banks, who pointed out that the
strike "is more likely to be de-

than in the courts" despite the
charges which the Chicago News

Heretofore administration spokesmen ana
MIR. Truman himself have considered only
'linited powers" in vague way, wltnout
indicating the legislation desired to COMBAT
initiation.
The republicans in Congress have thus
completed political maneuver. The demo-
Gratis had hoped the republicans would
draft such a bill, in which case they would
have to accept the responsibility. for its
effectiveness or failure: In case OF failure
the blame would rest squarely on the shoul-
ders of the COP. As it is, the role is re-
versed. If the bill to be drawn by Secre-
tary Schwellenbach fails, the democratic
administration must accept the blame.
On the other hand, should the Schwelien-
bach measure be rejected by the repuon-
can majority in Congress, without givlng II
a trial, and prices and wages climb hlgher'
the political advantage the repuphcans
seem to have gained would prove BOOM

reasons are clearly religious. So it becomes
the duty of the Moslem political and re-
lieious leaders to order an end to it. If
they do not choose to accept this duty,
there is little that can be done.
The British have disowned any RESPONSE
bility to keep order, and the UN has made
no provision to enforce its decision. Thus
it falls to the Arab world to prove that
it really champions peace, and that it has
some regard for the majority of world
opinion.
But any hope of such action is not strong
enough to free the UN from its equally i'm
portant duty Of providing means of car
rying out its will. Otherwise, the optimism
and increased UN prestige, ari sing from
the Soviet-American agreement on Pales-
tine, will be greatly diluted.

Freedom Train

Inviting Kiwanians to visit the Freedom
Train and to extend the invitation to thell
acouaintances, Alan Marshall very proper
ly emphasized the growing indifference
among Americans to the cardinal princl
Piles of liberty which we too often take to-
granted and which, if unchecked, coulo
| lead to our national undoing.
| AS feature Of Rededication week, now
in progress, this Freedom Train is speed
ing across the United States, stopping II
some three hundred cities, that residents
may see the actual drafts OF the Decla'
ration Of independence, the Constitution
and other documents which constitute the
very roots of our freedom, and additional
exhibits that illustrate the progress of this
nation from a wilderness to a leading world
power.
Mr.. Marshall's invitation should not &C
unheeded. Rather it should be accepted not
only by Kiwanians but by every loyal cltl'
zen and in visiting the train we should in
actual fact rededicate ourselves to the
services and duties involved in good citi-
zenship. AS the speaker noted, there is
nothing spectacular, nothing glamourous,
nor even heroic, in good citizenship. 1t
merely requires U.s. among other things to
70 to the polls on election days, to make
whatever sacrifice in private interests is
involved in public service, to take part
active part-in the civic, political, religious
life of the community.
The Freedom Train will be here next
Wednesday-all day-on the shipyard spur
of the Atlantic Coast Line at the shipyard.
Starting at 10 o'clock am, all comers maS
examine its precious horde of exhibits until
10 o'clock that night. Allowing ample time
for visitors actually to examine the docu-
nentary evidence of the nations success
sive steps to greatness, it is estimated that
at least fifteen thousand persons may IA
miliarize themselves with the originals
therein displayed.
This is all too few. It could be wished
that the train might lay over for another
day, but a crowded schedule makes that
impossible It behooves Wilmingtonians
and New Hanover and Brunswick county
residents to be numbered, 10 far as posi-
BILE, among those to see the cherished herit-
age it contains which, in the last analysis,
is far more valuable than the vaulted gold
at Fort Knox. This train, in very truth
contains our spiritual resources.
Be on hand when the doors open.

THE DECISION ON
PALESTINE

The partition of Palestine was
as inevitable as was tn e par
tition of Ireland and of India,
and for the same reasons. 1t is
the way all empires end which
have ruled over diverse COM
munities. The imperial power,
when it can no longer be main
tanned, becomes divided among
those who remain on the ground
and in actual possession of the
various parts of the old empire.
This is what happened to the
Turkish empire. Its successors
are the Balkan nations and the
Arab states, all of which came
into existence as a result of the
partition of the Turkish empire.
1t happened also to the Aus
tro-Hungarian empire. It's sue
cessors are Czechoslovakia,
Austria, Hungary, Yugoslavia; !;
they are the heirs Of the par
tition of the empire Of the Haps-
