The Citizen, aware of the popular pull

BILL OF RIGHTS FOR LABOR

Commenting on the Taft-Hartley labor
bill, Representative Ralph W. Gwinn said !:
.s,rl>- 4---aa-r AI;a-h;l- - ,inh+ fo.. l.
Dor believe that when union men take
back their own unions and manage them
for themselves without fear of management
or labor bosses, industrial peace will come.
That is the hope in the return of freedom
under this bill"
That is sound statement--and a
sound definition of the purposes of the
bill 1t precisely STIMULATES that union men,
bers have the right to know how much
money their union has and what it is used
for They have the right to choose their
union officers by secret ballot in free cleo
tions. They have the right to select as
their bargaining agent the union they
want 49, not the u n o n that is forced on
h en-. They have the right to a
fair hearing, before an impartial board,
whenever they may believe that either
the employer or the union is discriminat-
ing against them.
The bill does not deprive labor of any
| right which is consistent with American
principles and the public welfare. 1t does
| on the other hand, reaffirm that the in
dvidual worker has basic and vitality i'm
portant rights of which he cannot be de-
prived by either unions or industry. 1t is
| aimed straight at the union racketeer boss
and at the exploiting employer as we'll.
The measure is in the interest of the
rank and fie---of the millions of men and
women who make up Americas working
force. 1t may not be perfect. 1t may need
| early revision in some particulars. But it
is based upon the sound principle that free
labor must be safeguarded-and that the
Dor leaders, no less than of some employ
ers, must be stopped.

ANOTHER LESSON IN ECONOMICS

That quaint theory that it is possible to
continually raise wages without raising
prices was disproved long ago. Now the
public is witnessing still another demon
stration of the fact that wages and prices
move together.
The current case is coal. AS the Wall
Street Journal said, ''The American pub
lie will soon be chipping in to finance the
latest pay hike which John l.. Lewis wrap
ped up for his soft coal Miners The prob
able average increase, once the situation
stabilizes, will be about So cents ton.
That, along with some other factors, is ex-
pected to raise the price of steel SIS ton.
And when steel prices rise, it is felt
throughout all basic industry. The pr e
tags on thousands of articles will be in
creased.
The desire of workers to earn more
money is perfectly natural. But, in the
long run, the welfare of industry is what
will determine job security and workers
annual income. If, as an example, higher
coal prices force consumers to substitute
other fuels, the ultimate result will be a
shrinking market for coal and fewer jobs
for the miners Again, if a wave of price
increases brings on consumer resistance
and a general decline in buying, the ill
effects will be felt throughout the country
at the expense of all.
There is but one way wages can be
permanently increased without prices be-
ing increased-and that is by higher out
put per worker to hold down cost of pro-
duction In the last two years. worker
productivity in many fields has actually de-
clined while wages have scared. The in
evtabe result has been initiation and a
cheapened dollar. The present coal situa.
ton simply indicates that still more price
initiation is on the wav.
