CLOSED UNION NEPOTISM

The facts brought out in the Supreme Court de- cision in Mineola L. L. which involved closed shop and a closed union should be required reading for anybody who wonders why Congress is determined 10 reform the labor laws The Rockaway News Com pany of Valley Stream, distributors of newspapers, has a closed shop agreement with the Newspaper and Mail Deliverers Union of New York. This union has very cozy rule that no join it unless he is the son of a member. Ten workers who are not members but would like to be-and not fortunate enough to be sons of members permitted to hold jobs while sons of members being trained to take the family craft These ten workers now facing discharge asked a restraining order from the court This has just been denied the ground that neither State nor Federal prohibits the succession agree ment.
 The closed union is device that contribute to higher cost of production through making it sary to pay overtime at higher rate. It limits a mans freedom in taking up a trade It has the effect of producing an unnatural shortage of skilled labor in some lines and such might be the in the building trades today if high labor and material had not already produced buyers strike against housing Meanwhile the average age of the workers in such restricted trade may rise until the members are old men. past the age of vigorous production. The result is, in general, form of monopoly that is afront to the principles of free choice of of livelihood and damaging to our economy. The

Braden condensed for General Marshall'S study, is sweeping blue print to huild up Argentina as the most powerful military nation in South America. It calls for stepping up the Argentine birth rate, control of all raw materials in South Am erica, dispersal of Argentine indus try as protection against bomb ing, intensive experimentation in atomic laboratories, control of the judiciary and other suppressive measures.
 Braden also pointed out that the Swear plan was not merely doc ument on paper, but actually was being put into effect. Here are some of the Swear steps Peron already has taken:
 1.-Control of the judiciary-Four out of five judges on the Argentine Supreme Court already have been impeached. Peron did not even give them trial. The fifth judge was Peron stooge Scores Of other lesser judges have been busted
 2.-Control of ducation-Peron has already fired 700 professors from Argentine universities. He has also placed six national universities hitherto centers of pro-democratlc

Feather Bedding
(NeW York TineS)


 One of the chief obstacles to full production by American industry is feather bedding the practice by which labor limits its output Originally confined the craft unions, survey made by this newspaper shows that it is spreading through the mass industries.
 Feather bedding is the exact opposite of the speed-up system. It is the showdown system. If a bricklayer can normally lay 1000 bricks a day and is limited to 50O that is feather bedding At first this was revolt against unfair employers The application of legitimate safety and health rules involved in it. In periods of depression it provided means of spreading what work available to idle work CTS. But the system petrified into nnumerab!e outWorn rules 1t became in many respects fantastic needlessly reducing productivity and holding back technical progress.
 The railroad brotherhoods are generally regarded the stronghold of feather bedding. Union rules enforcing it incorporated in 4000 contracts For example in some yards modern double ended loco- motive must be turntable and reversed just the one singe-end locomotives were, before it can back up its load. Mileage standards for crew men still what they years ago, while extra crews are carried for single functions. Time and money loss into startling figures. The building trades full of feather bedding, which helps to explain the excessive cost of housing construction. Thirty or forty unions may be employed on singe apart ment house and almost all of them practice feather bedding. Many carpenters may not use power saws, nor painters spray guns Even the size of painters brush may be restricted In the printing trades union often make it necessary to set type twice MT. Perillos Musicians Union and Stage Hands notori- opponents of feather bedding and 'unearned wage eXactions.
 Recently few craft unions have shown tendency to relax of their harsher feather bedding rules, of payroll padding through overtime But n the industries feather bedding is growing There be doubt that it's prevalence results enormous loss high units costs and higher prices

BIG BUSINESS ADMITS
 LOBBYING

The National Association of Man ufacturers operates one of the smoothest and most powerful lob bies in Washington-usually from behnd the scenes. But recently they have come out with an amazingly frank admission Not only do they state that they are lobbying, but they ask Congressmen how they can strengthen their lobby.
 The NAM has just circulated a letter to all Congressmen who voted for the Hartley Labor Bill. Pre- sumably the manufacturers consid- cred these Congressmen their friends. In the letter, they frankly asked various questions as to how the NAM could improve it's lobby ing methods
 Here are two of the most signi- ficant questions asked:
 Would it be more helpful from your standpoint if NAM urged it's members to stir up sentiment back home instead of using national ad- vertising?
 When the next bill comes along in the Senate, would you like to see similar advertising campaign by NAM supporting tax reductions?'
 Note to constituents-In view of the NAM questionnaire, it might be interesting for Congressman constituents to send hin. a ques- tionnaire inquiring what influences such as campaign contributions determined his vote on certain key questions.

FREEDOM OF PRESS? :?

4.-Control of press-While there is official freedom Of the press, Peron exercises powerful indirect control by his supervision of news print, his influence over newspaper labor unions, and the practice of levying large fines on hostile news papers which violate official ordin- ances.
 5.-Control of movies and radio The Argentine Government now runs the two largest radio stations in the country All other stations are required to submit advance ra- dio scripts on political questions for censorship. Several notion picture houses have been closed for show ing pictures disrespectful of the government.
 6.-Secret police-Peron has es- tablished his own secret police, bas- ed on the Nazi and Sovet pat

tern Several hundred GeStapo agents are on the lookout for any one hostile to the Peron regime. Result is that some of the top officers of the navy who were too independent" have been dismissed.
 7.-Argentine expansion-1n addi- tion to increasing the Argentine birth rate, the Peron Swear plan calls for sele.tive immigration from Europe. Pero.l has sent two special commissions to Spain and Italy to select "racially pure" immigrants. His goal is to increase Argentina's population from it's present l4,- OOO,O0O to 100,000,000 in the next 50 years
 These were some Of the things Braden put before Marshall and Truman in arguing that the United States could not afford to sell arms to a potentially fascist nation. In the end, he was overruled, chiefly on the ground that the United States needed a solid hemisphere against Russia and that not even Argentina could be left out of that solidarity.
 Note-One factor contributing to Bradens reversal was Senator Vandenberg of Michigan, who long has favored closer relations with Argentina. It was Vandenberg who helped bring Argentina into the United Nations at San Francisco.

Department, maintained that if the United States is to build up an an- ti-Soviet bloc in the Western Hem isphere it must cooperate with the Argentine Army and Navy.
 Braden, in turn, brought out a copy of the Argentine Swear plan, a highly Illuminating document, in- dicating that President Peron plan ned to set up a vigorous fascist state right under the nose of the Pan American Union.
 Braden also pointed out that Peron had trained for time under Roberto Farinacci, Secretary Gen. eral of the Italian Fascist Party, and that two of his chief support CTS were Ludwig Freude, German Nazi, and Heinrich Doerge. former adviser to Hjalmar Schacht.
