Shortly after the election |
stated that the National Associa-
ton of Manufacturer were out
to destroy labor unions. and the
new Congress would soon shape
up new labor bill that would
all but tear to bits the Wagner
Act. need not tell you how close
that has been fully realized
But little do the Republicans
and the Southern Democrats know
that their action in overriding
the Presidents veto, has maybe
cleared the way for third party
The Democrats have been split
wide open, and unless some mira
culous political organization takes
place soon, II will have a mini
mum of influence in the 1913
elections.
Where does labor go from here?
II cannot turn to the Republicans.
and there seems. for the present
little hope for it in the Demo.
Gratis. OF course, if 1t wished to

formidable POLITICAL would sug.
gest that the CLIO. and the AF.

the organized workers Of Ameri.
ca into a sphere OF one purpose
without any variance of political
influence.
With such an organization, the
powerful NAM might become
more conducive to the struggles
of the little man. Together we
stand. but divided, we crumble.

The 5-3 majority of the Su.
preme Court which sustained the

Federation of Musicians from
forcing Broadcasters to hire more
musicians than they will claim

sign to the Negroes. First of all
II any Radio station should ever
become temporarily liberal enough
to hire some Negro musicians.
and should take a notion they
want to cut down on their studio
help. the Negroes will be the
first to receive the pink slip.
No one can speculate on the
! far reaching significance of the
Supreme Courts decision. II
could well be factor in the
dropping Of Negro workers from
many fields of industry. With nc
law to prevent discrimination in
employment, and II doesn't look
as though We are going TO get

And what makes the decision
really something to think about
-- not even tho unions could pre-
vent any mass firing OF Negroes

to take will be Gin conjunction
with the police"
In the House of Lords, Viscount
George Hall, First Lord of the Ad-
miralty, called the wave of anti
Jewish outbreaks "a danger sig
nal which cannot be ignored" and
called upon all Jewish organiza-
tions, and the Jewish Agency in
particular, to take note of the
danger signal" He claimed that
the terrorists would not have
been able to function in Palestine
if Haganah had thrown its full
strength against them.
During the ensuing debate, sew
eral members of the House ex-
pressed the hope for an early re-
port by the U.N. committee on
Palestine and equally speedy ac-
ton by the Government when the
report is made. Lord Reading
charged that "vociferouS" sec
ton of American Jewry was 60
ing "to great lengths of excess"
AT the same time he asserted that
he was of the opinion that the
hopes of the homeless Jews in
Europe "are concentrated ulti-
mately upon finding a home in
Palestine among people who want
to receive them rather than being
given a home in some country
amongst people who receive them
out of kindliness and charity, but
perhaps with just a little hestita-
ton and reluctance enough to de-
stroy the welcome"

HONDURAS FAVORS
SHIP SEIZURE

Lake Success (WNS). - The
Government of Honduras, a Cen
tral American republic whose
flag is widely used by shipping
lines, has notified the British
Government that it is satisfied to
have any of its ships seized on
the high seas if they carry illegal
Jewish immigrants to Palestine.
The Honduras statement, made
public here by the United Ma
tions, declared that it had in
structed its New York consul at
various times to cancel the rights
of ships flying the flag of Hon
duras throughout the zone be-
tween Marseille and Palestine
(which might be engaged in the
illegal traffic of Jewish immi-
grants.

fled with progressive forces in all
nations. He denounced terror
ism, adding that the Yishuv must
be united and it was impossible
to conduct a state without ac-
ceptance of its authority by all
citizens.
Moshe Shertok, chief of the
Jewish Agency's Political Depart
ment, who spoke at subsequent
session of the conference, de-
clared that while the three great
powers will be decisive in deter
mining the future of Palestine,
the strength of the small powers
must not be underestimated and
their weight is of considerable
Importance in the councils of the
United Nations. We have come
through the first phase of the
United Nations inquiry and are
now entering the second phase,
which undoubtedly will be the
most difficult because then the
conflicting interests of the pow
ers will arise. The final decision,
he said, depends on the attitude
of Britain, but the Jewish people
cannot wait for final solution
in their present position and must
therefore urge an immediate tier
i'm solution which would remove
the White Paper and other OBJ
stacles blocking the development
of Palestine, irrespective of future
decisions.

that while the Jews did not be-
grudge the Arabs improvements,
the great disparity in the taxes
were created by the fact that the
taxes were not on income alone
but mostly on capital goods i'm
ported by Jews. The Czech dele
gate Lisicky observed the world
over that the wealthier part bears
the greatest part of the tax bur-
den for the poorer class. He add
ed that he thought the time has
come for the Jews to stop repeat
ing this argument.
DR.. Bernstein replied that a
misunderstanding had arisen on
this point. Mr.. Kaplan then added
that the Jews criticized the Gov
ernment's evaluation of the means
on which taxes are based, point
ing out that many rich Arabs in
the country don't bear an equal
share of the tax burden with
wealthy Jews.

Jerusalem (Palcor). - Reports
are circulating here on the pos

batten will become High Com
missioner of Palestine when his
appointment as Viceroy of India,
which was originally for a shorter
term, comes to an end. These re-
ports suggested that Mountbat-
ten would be assigned to negoti-

for which he is said to be well
equipped since his successful ex-

the curfew in the Jaffa-Tel Aviv

In Tel Aviv resentment is run
ming high over the failure of the
British police to arrive promptly
on the scene of fighting. Had it
not been for the arrival of armed
Haganah police units, the situa-
ton might have been more seri-
Gus.
The current Arab attacks were
ascribed by Irgun to Britain's
"quarter-century old policy of
stirring up trouble" between
Jews and Arabs. Irgun said it
would continue to fight the Brit
ish rather than the Arabs.

George Alpert, president of the
Board, over the question of select
ing a president for the University,
it has been announced. The action
came as a result of unwillingness
on his part to approve the selec-
ton of Prof. Harold Laski, Brit
ish-Jewish economist, as the new
university's head, Mr.. Alpert de-
clared.
AS a result of this rift, the Elm
stein Foundation, established for
the support of the University,
will be renamed the Brandeis
Foundation.
"The university and the founda-
ton are both soundly establish
ed" said Mr.. Alpert. About
$2,0O0,0OO in pledges have been
secured up to now and it is plan
ned to open the Liberal Arts Sec
ton of the university next year
with 500 students, he stated. A
statement in support of Mr.. AL
pert was issued by Miss Susan
Brandeis, daughter of the late
Supreme Court Justice for whom
