We Simply Don't Gore

We, frankly, don't care Whether pure
humanitarian motives or impure political
motives prompted President Truman to
call the 8Oth Congress back into session
on Missouri's Turnip Day, July 26.
He did call special session and ne
did place before Congress program
worthy of serious consideration.
He provided the GOP-contrOlled body
with an opportunity to tackle the serious
cost of living and housing problems and
to act on other important matters.
Congress not only muffed the Oppor-
tunity but provided the nation with a
disgraceful demonstration of its contempt
for the publcs respect.
The anti-Truman Southern Democratic
bloc stalled the session with an anti
poIltax filibuster - and the Republican
leadership just stalled.
Parliamentary maneuvering was sub
stituted for consideration of the problems
at hand

Women's News
And Views
BY Odessa Overy
Secretary Women's Bureau
Region 2-B

Our hats 60 out to some Of
our good people. The women
aren't doing such a good job
with the work they promised to
assist with, in order to have the
summer camp running smoothly.
Eleanor Dederman, wife of Bert,
Loretta 'Schillinger, Mrs. How
ard Redigar, and Mrs. Holewin-
ski, have been the outstanding
women figures at the summer
camp this summer and without
the assistance of these good
people the camp just could not
have carried on.
do not wish to slight the
men folks, for 1t was through
their efforts that we really have
a camp. OF course they always
say that the women always do
a lot of talking but they don't
make any effort to help, which
looks just that way. But on the
other hand there are a lot of
times that they are willing to
help. But it seems that the men
don't want the interference of
the women. 1t seems that they
are trying to put that old saying
into effect, that the Woman's
place is in the home.
1t really isn't that bad, but
it makes us think that we are
being sighted when there is
work to be done, especially
work at the summer camp
where women have more ex-
perience than the men. But still
they don't ask the assistance of
the women.
The men are doing a wonder
full job at the dairy, and re-
tirement, farms and the orchard
with the assistance of the sons
of our union members. They are
going to have a nice crop this
fall. The young farm hands are
very efficient and are having
good time at the same time, for
they work until three o'clock
and then they can take advan-
tage of the lake and go swim
ming, boating, play horseshoes
or just lie around and take it
easy, or play games.
This is helping to let the
young folks know just how the
union gets places, by working
together. 1t also makes them
union minded without trying to
pound it into them for l believe
that when they see others think
ing the same as their mother or
dad, well, it's just alright. It
would have to be alright if SO
many people think the same. So
by the time that they are ready
for the shop they will be ready
also to accept their responsibali-
ty and be on their toes to pro-
mote the union in any way pos
sible.
l do think that there is too
much responsibility placed in
one individual to have the camp
perfect, but all in all they are
doing a wonderful job for only
the second year that it has been
operating with improvements all
the time and with the governors
springing up with new ideas all
the time. Well I hope that the
right people read this column
and do something about it. For
| know that there is more to
be gotten out of it than can be
seen with the naked eye. Well
| hope that the women also see
this column and do something
about it too.

then-who the winner was in the legisla.

going on in Washington, but we can name
the loser without any difficulty.

He's the guy who's been yelling that

He's you and me and the family that

As this is written il appears possible
that the COP leadership may poke puny
finger or two into the holes through which
the forces of initiation are gushing.
But the leaders themselves had al
ready made it plain they wounldnt double
up their fists and really slam away at the
major causes of high prices.

farce!
