Some of our people have
really been shocked lately at
how clean the shop has been the
past week. Since Smokey" has
injured his arm, he is serving as
overseer of the cleanup squad

Chairman Frank Young has
just got himself a new cement
mixer, and the critics all claim
that he had better look over the
classy maroon colored job one
of the floor helpers is driving to
work. Seems we ought to all go
on floor help.
Bill Lockwood, better known
as Peanuts, underwent an
emergency operation the past

Congress Top
.Union-Wrecker
Friqh+ens NAM

WAS HIN G 7 o N, April 10
GPA)-The first thing that hits
yor eye when you walk into the
spacious offices of Representa-
tive Clare Hoffman (R., Mich.ll
is a huge framed picture layout
hanging on the wall.
The pictures show strike
violence, each ph ogra phi
bloodier than the previous one.
They show men being beaten
with clubs, some with their faces
battered, some lying unconscious
on railroad tracks.
The pictures have a title,
probably written by Mr.. Hoff-
man: Peaceful Picketing, Or
The Gentle Art of Persuasion"
You go into Hoffman's private
office and you find the same
picture layout there. That estab-
fishes the mood of any interview
with Hoffman, especially if it's
on Hoffman's pet theme of Con-
greSsional legislation to wrsai@-
the trade union movement.
Looks Like Rogers
The 72-year-old Hoffman, now
in his seventh term in Congress, y
has deceptive facial resemblance
to the late Will Rogers. The
similarity ends there. Where
Will Rogers had a affable,, easy
going drawl, Hoffman snarls.
Hoffman is the "dream-man"
of the nations labor-h a ting
employers because he cannot be
Jumped with the southern crack
pots and screwballs in Congress.
But the truth is that Hoffman is
such a fanatic where labor legis-
lation is concerned that even the
NAM and the Chamber of Com
merce hesitate to endorse his
extreme proposals.
Gives His Views
Hoffman admitted in an inter-
view last week that "a lot of
my views are in the final bili''
prepared by the House Labc
Committee. He was probably
modest.
Go to my testimony; you'll
get my views" Hoffman told a
reporter. He was asked whether
he thought there was a posi-.
bility of a Truman veto of the
legislation.
Il don't know and don't
care" Hoffman exclaimed "I
don't think it's any of President
Iruman's business what we write
or don't write"
Not only is itnone of Presi-
dent Trman's business but it's
none of labors business either.
