Apparently he alone among the AFL hierarchy is holding against signing an affidavit to the effect that he is not a Communist and not associated with any group working for overthrow of the United States Government by force or violence. But the effect is under MT Denhams ruling, to deprive 43,000 local unions with AFI connections of the right to carry their cases before the NLRB This doesn't make sense from any point of view.
 Before sautine MT Lewis as a fearless leader of a worthy however, it is well to remember that he is taking full advantage of a weak point in the Taft-Hartley Act in an effort to wreck the entire statute. No informed person believes that MT Lewis himself has any sympathy for the Communists and few would attribute to him any desire to defend the absract principle of protecting bargaining rights with out regard to ideooges. His primary concern is doubtless that of the wrecker For that very reason it is incxcsably shurtsighted to provide him with weapon that he can readily weld with devastating effect.
 At the time of it's issuance we regarded MT. Den hams interpretation of the Communist affidavit pro- vision unreasonaby sweeping Strict reading of the
 text does require affidavits from the officers of labor fedeTatlcns and u' chief author of the act, Senator Taft has said there legislative his tory to back up the Denham interpretation We hope
 therefore that Mi Denhams view will be upset by the NLI2B It is the board itself and not it's general counsel which has the final rue-making power sub ject of course to review by the courts The public interest would best be served by carrying test promptly before the NIRB and then before the courts Regardless of what the decision of the NLRB may be- it is possible that the entire section dealing with the anti -Communist affidavit may be thrown out by the Supreme Court invidious encroachment upon rights
 Meanwhile, however. it is important that the Taft-Hartley Act go into operation with minimum of friction Nothing would delight the foes of all legislation designed to balance labors privileges with appropriate obligations so much as complete tie-up of all the machinery created by what they call the slave labor law. The best proof that the law has nothing in it remotely resembling slave labor require ments is to let tho unions test it in actual operation It would be ironical indeed if the Gromyko in the AFLs executive council or arbitrary ruling by the general counsel of the NLRB should be permitted to prevent the test from being made

Today is observed throughout the nation as Navy Day. day upon which the people of the United States pay tribute to the officers and serving their country in the branch of armed which our first line of defense.
 In connection with Navy Day the people of Juneau will be interested to know something of the recent activities of the ship that bears the of city the USS Juneau.
 During the last months of 1946 the Juneau, sort of dropped the sidelines undergoing a period of immCbization. Like many other units of the Atlantic Fleet, once the was over the ship unable to operate of shortage of personnel caused by demobilization. The Juneau at that time berthed in Casco Bay, Portland, Maine
 In December of that year the situation improved and the Juneau had enough men to begin operations again. She went to Guantanamo for training and by great effort became able to take part in the Fleet Exercises
 In March the ship went to Brooklyn Naval Ship yard and was prepared for distant operation sailing from New York April IT. l947 and reporting to the Commander of U. S. Naval Forces Eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean. Since that time she has been continuously operating in the Mediterranean area.
 The ship has carried the name of Juneau to the following ports Trieste Venice, Pola Naples Genoa, Rapallo Gele Juan Cannesp and Taranto. The men from the ship made trips to Cortna. a famous resort the Italian Alps; to Florence to Paris, to Capri; and to Rome where they had audience with the Holy Father.

Rail Rates Go Up
(New York Times

The action of the Interstate Commerce Coinmis- sion in granting the railroads interim increase of approximately per cent in freight rates repre- sents praiseworthy toward correcting a long standing weakness in railroad regulation This the almost chronic lag between rising costs on the one hand and compensating rate increases the other. Since wages account for about half of the total costs, this lack of coordination be- and has been at times costly to the railroads
 Events in l946 provide an interesting illustration of the cost-rate problem In the spring of o46 rail- hear their claims. An additional 212 cents an hour retroactive to Jan l. from three boards appointed to hear their claims. An additional 21a cent hour granted a short time later result of Presi- dent Trumans award This effective May 9. Despite this large in wages freight not increased until July 1, l946, when interim rise of per cent granted. Finally, as of Jan. l. 1947 increase of TIC per cent was made effective
 In other words the railroads had hgher wage costs for the first six months of 1946 without any rise in freight rates Then, in the last half of the year. they received about third of the rise they ultimately to obtain Because of this long lag between increased in wages and in freight rates, their net earnings in 1946 very small despite record peacetme volume Of traffic for several large roads net deficits reported
 Since the present rate increase will meet the major share of increased costs since July 1, it is understandable that William T. Farley, President of the Association of American Railroads should find the action of the I. C. c. "heartenng to the railroad industry
