The Public Is Loser

We won't know until November-f then-who the
winner in the legislavepotca sham battle that has
been going in Washington, but can name the loser
without any difficulty.
He's known in many quarters as John q. Public.
He's the who's been suffering from high prices and
inadequate living quarters.
He's the guy who's been yelling that something should
be done to curb initiation.
He's you and me and the family that lives next door
AS this is written it appears possible that the COP
leadership may poke puny finger two into the holes
through which the forces of initiation are gushing
But the leaders themselves had already made it plain
they wouldn't double their fists and really slam away
the major causes of high prices
AS we said before, it's nauseating farce

We're Proud!

Cong Clarence Cannon, Ninth Missouri District, spoke
follows:

Especially in the last decade it has demonstrated it's
erority every other form of government. However,
there is to dpore the intense parsanshp which
always develops before elections and the extent which
newspapers try to convince confuse the voter.
"But, after visiting countries of Europe, where free
elections and where newspapers print opinions
and little news, heart swels with joy when hear

when buy newspaper and read the news, along
with the political froth it wants to throw in.

with all they say but, God bless hem you have the fact
and make up your mind America about the only

Lubor's Heritage

The United Automobile Workers of America affiliated
with the American Federation of Labor has naugurated
novel means of honorng Labor Day by preparing aac
tive Labor Day greeting card which will be sent to labor
and business associates this year The card ebodes as It's
central design roogravure reproduction of the Samuel
Gompers memorial in Washington, d. c.
The following quotation in part from one of Gompers
early addresses is also included: II keeny alive to the
fact that there many ills from which the working
people of country suffer- laws that passed frequent
y being of discriminating character against those who
nothing but their power to labor 1t seems to me
that have right demand legislation in the interest of
the wageworkers who form large majority, and GER
tainy unmporant factor to the welbeng of
try"
The applicability of this statement in todays affairs is
particularly surprising when considers that made
in 1S87-more than 60 years ago.
In commenting the Labor Day card international
Union President Lester Washbuln said We in the JAW
AFL fully and appreciatve of the long strides
made by organized labor since the first Labor Day
back in 1882
1--WE hope that this card will to remind all those
who receive it that labor has heritage rich in tradition
and accomplishment and that it will continue to fight for
the rights of the average workers has done for these
many years.

We Simply Don't Care

We, frankly don't whether pure humanitarian
tves or impure political motives prompted President Tru
man to call the 80th Congress back into session Mssous
Turnp Day, July 26.
lie did call special session and he did place before
Congress program worthy of serious consideration.
lie provided the GOPcontroed body with an oppor-
tunty to tackle the serious cost of living and housing
bemS and to act on other important matters
Congress not only muffed the opportunity but provided
the nation with dsgraceful demonstration of it's contempt
for the publics respect
The anti-Truman Southern Democratic bloc stalled the
session with antipoltax fbuster-and the Republican
leadership just stalled
Parliamentary maneuvering was substituted for con-
sideraion of the problems at hand

Battle Has Just Begun

large group of business and industrial leaders is out
to smash the unions and statements to the contrary simply
don't make in the light of what's been going on over
the country lately.
Oh sure they'd be willing to tolerate worker organiza-
tons called unions if these organizations behaved them
selves and didn't ask for anything management wasn't will
ing to grant
They sayin print, at least-that they're in favor of
responsible unions but when they define responsible
learn that what they really want is union tup with
out power to enforce just demands.
The battle against unions which nearly halted during
the war; has just begun The objective is tn same as
ever, but some of the techniques new.
One of these is trying to sell the public the idea that the
unions are to blame for initiation.
