TIL LAW GETS US
COMING AND GOING

Washington (LPA) = The ma
tion's organized workers = chief
victims of the Taft Hartley law
are going to have to pay as tax
payers thru the nose for its en-
forcement.
Congress received a Budget Bur-
eau request, over President Tru-
mans signature, for appropria-
tions amounting to $6,900,300 for
the enlarged NLRB and for the
new Federal Mediation Service for
the rest of this year. Of the total
sum, $4,O25,300 will go to the
NLRB which most unions have de-
cided to ignore completely. The
other $2,650,0C0 goes to the new
mediation service. The NLRB,
which has been starved for funds
in the past, can now hire up to
1000 new employees under its new
budget.

Expose OF Landlords
Lobby Asked By Paper

st. Louis (LPA)-An editorial
demand for a Congressional inves-
tigation of the real estate lobby in
the ST. Louis Post-Dispatch drew
nationwide attention last week.
GAS free enterprise the real
estate lobby is a lie. AS front for
builders it is an organized wreck
ing crew." charges the Post-Dis-
patch. "First of all the inquiry
ought to show why every major
housing bill since the Housing Act
of 1887 has been blockaded, includ-
ing the Wagner r-Ellender-Taft
bill"
In fact, the midwest paper nom-
mates Sen. Robert A. Taft (R.,
Ohio) to carry out the expose.
"The COP Senator" the Post-Dis-
patch points out, "who has never
been pinker than his suntan, has
been branded Socialist and what
not by the building lobby because
he helped write bill for public
housing"

Unions Modified
Too Slow Against
Toft-Hor+Iey 7 Law

New York (LPA) - Organized
labor's defeat in the enactment of
the Taft Hartley law was analyzed
this week by Labor & Nation, in
dependent national labor organiza-
ton.
"An analysis and evaluation of
the lessons of the defeat which
labor has suffered in the current
clash," said the magazine editor
ally, "is necessary for laying effec-
tive plans for the battles ahead.
What has that experience been ?"
"By and large it has been that,
although there was much bitter
and determined fighting at the last
moment: lit came too late. 2
There was not enough of it. 3-The
mobilization of forces was none too
adequate. 4-Labor failed to make a
statement of aims that could
secure it the wide popular support
essential to victory in democracy.
5-Labor, far from being united in
so crucial an engagement, was not
even relatively coordinated for col
laborative action."t a
Commenting on the fact that
"Mobilization Came Too Late" the
magazine pointed out that, owe
remember, don't we, that the Case
bill, just a junior brother of the
Taft-Hartley bill, was passed by
the 10th Congress and was not
made law only because of the Pre-
sident's veto? But in the election
which followed it by few months,
labor did not really fight, except
in relatively few districts. The
electorate did not, by any means,
give the new Congressional maj
Ority a mandate to cruelty labor.
With the exception of relative few
districts, the issue was not joined
at all. Labor lost that election by
default. Even in the present con-
test, labor did not wake up to try
to lock the barn until the horse
was all but being led out"

Ford Fires 81 FOremen
For Acts OF Violence

Detroit (LPA)-Despite assur-
ance of no reprisals given to the
Foreman's Assn of America at the
close of it's 47-day strike, the Ford
Motor Co. last week fired 32 of the
men who participated in the recent
FAA strike.
FAA President Robert Fl. Keyes,
and Pat Mullin, Ford local presi-
dent, said that the firings violated
the company's promise to us" that
there would be absolutely no re-
examinations or reprisals" against
the striking foremen. The Associa-
tion leaders pointed out that all of
the men are key members of the
union and active in the strike.
Ford vice e-president and indus
trial relations director, John s..
Bugas, reiterated his pledge that
no one will be Disseminated
against for illegal participation in
the foremen's strike" However, he
alleged that the 32 discharged men
were guilty of violence against
non-strikers, and were armed with
guns, knives and clubs during the
strike.
FAA's Ford local will hold a
special meeting to defend the en-
ployment rights of it's members.
An unfair labor practice complaint
is being prepared for submission to
the National Labor Relations
Board and there are rumors that
another strike may result from the
violation of the agreement.

Textile Workers
May Reverse
Wage Hike Policy

Boston (LPA)-Presideht Emf
Rieve, of the Textile Workers Un-
ion, declared here last week that
the TWUA's policy of asking for
no wage increases may have to be
reversed in view of "skyrocketing
living costs.
Rieve spoke as union leaders
opened negotiations with mill own
ers in the Fall River-New Bedford
area. The wage pattern here usual
ly sets the scale on pay for all
northern mills including New York
and New Jersey.
AS negotiations broke off, Rieve
said that 10000 TWUA members
in 149 mills may be forced to strike
on August 1, if substantial pay
raises are not given.

Charges ANA
Misrepresenfs
Nations S Doctors

Washington (LPA) - Charging
that the american Medical Assn.
does not honestly represent the
doctors Of America and, in effect,
refuses to carry out the instruc-
tions Of the doctor members Of the
Association" Sen. J. Howard Nc
Grath 3D., R.I.) in a statement to
the Senate Labor & Public Welfare
Committee for the first time last
week released series of docu-
ments on the resignation Of Ray
mond Rich Associates as public re-
lations counsel of the American
Medical Assn.
McGrath's statement was made
in support Of the National Health
Insurance Bill of which he is a CO.
sponsor. He told the Senate Com
mittee, g. this series of docu-
ments indicates to me that the of
ficials of the ANA are not even
willing to abide by decisions of the
representative body Of their own
organization" He declared that
these documents "reveal the gap
between the social and economic
point Of view of Americas doctors
and that publicly proclaimed by
the officials of the ANA"
The Rhode Island Senator de-
clared that the Rich incident re-
veals three conclusions in regard
to the public responsibility of the
Congress.
l. "The undesirability of public
bodies utilizing the ANA, or its
subsidiaries, as agencies for the
administration of public funds.
2. "The absolute necessity Of
action by the federal government
and the states to meet the medical
care needs of the American people
without further reliance on the
possibility that organized medicine
in the immediate future will be
able to furnish the necessary lead
ership for developing a national
health program.
3. "That the ANA no longer
acts in the interest either of the
people, or the doctors in the field
of medical economics and the social
aspect of medicine"

weeks during the week which end
ed July 5, soaring 26.3% above the
corresponding period in 1916, and
only slightly below the high mark
after World War ii in March.
Food prices went up 1.5% in the

lemon juice and beat well. Pour
into molds and chill. Serve with
plain or whipped cream.
This dessert may be made the
same way by using 2 cups of the
cooked crushed berries instead of
just the juice from them.
This is also the time to put up
preserves as the fruits come into
season. Successful preserves should
be firm, tender and the sirup trans
lucent. To achieve this, sugar,
which has a frming effect on the
fruit tissues, must be applied diff
erently to different types Of fruit
1t is better to let cherries and
Strawberries stand overnight in
sugar. 1t is true they shrink, but,
they also become firmer and do not
go to pieces in cooking. The juice
provides enough cooking liquid so
no water is needed and they cook
in less time, which makes for bet
ter color and flavor.
Plums which have firm skin do
not need overnight fnning. They
should be put in a thick sirup be-
cause their juice, as they cook,
thins the sirup to the right consis-
tency.
If you'd be kind to your hands
and your dishes too, drop an empty
grapefruit or lemon shell in your
dishwater. 1t softens the water,
cuts the grease and shines the
dishes.
For deliciously different prunes
cook in grape juice, or let soak
in any fruit juice in refrigerator
until softened. They won't need
cooking at all.

WHAT'S COOKIN'?

Six million crates of cantaloupes
is a lot of cantaloupes, but that is
the expected crop from San Joaq-
uin Valley, in Central California
in early August. This is three
times the prewar crop from this
section.
Peaches will be plentiful, as well
as oranges and lemons. Watermel-
ons are abundant and reasonable in
price now. 1t is wise to feed the
family plenty of fruit for dessert
and cut down precious hours in the
kitchen making fussy desserts.
If you live in a section where
blackberries are plentiful try this
d-fashioned dessert blackberry
fiummery". The word "fummery'
comes from the Welsh, but it has
been popular with many genera
tions of Americans. 1t looks like
rich-red translucent jelly and is
easily made.
For a family of five or six, you
need 2 cups of cooked blackberry
juice from cooked or canned berr-
les and y cup sugar if the juice is
unsweetened; 2 tblspns. ca. of
cornstarch and lemon juice and u
tspn. salt.

only matter of choice.
Some girls make good after at
tending a school of modelling, but
this is not at all a necessity. Dram
attic training is big help, because
it stresses the value of a well
modulated voice, correct posture
and a lifting walk. Of course a
magnetic personality, or a natural
attractiveness is big asset, if you
aren't pretty.
To go in for modelling it is valu-
able to understand style trends, to
know current fashions and be we'll
dressed. A whole chapter could be
written on good grooming with
neatness and cleanliness stressed
as firsts. The use of make up is i'm
portant, but natural look is best.
Mascara should be used lightly, if
used at all, and then only if becom-
ing. Lighter shades of lipstick and
nail polish are in better taste than
darker hues. The shade chosen
should blend with the costume to
be worn.
To keep your figure or to i'm
prove it, it is necessary to careful
ly watch your diet, avoid excesses
and get plenty Of sleep. Bad habits
will ruin a career.
1t is best to take training in
your own home town and be sure
of yourself before bucking the ter
rife competition to be found in the
larger cities.
Baby-sitting has developed into
a flourishing business and is on its
way to becoming a profession, al
tho in some parts Of the country
baby sitters are commonly called
"bratters". Organized and super
vised child care groups are making
great strides. In 1898 an organiza-
ton called Proxy Parents sprang
up in New York. Branches have
been forming all over the country
patterned after this one. Their
motto is "We step in while you
step out" Realizing the import
ance of nursing and child psyche
logy in caring for children, classes
are conducted in these subjects.
