NEW TREND FRIGHTENING

Bit by bit-here and here-antilabor forces
have been chopping away steadily at unlonlsm
and at the very foundations of democracy and
real free enterprise. The trend as a whole IS
much more frightening than any Of its individual
parts.
Industry, now more powerful tina never before,
has a loaded gun aimed at the trade union move
ment. The trigger hasn't been pulled yet. but
who knows what may happen the minute there
a surplus Of workers and products workers prod
uce2
And what follows inflation2
And can democracy long endure if civil rights
continue to be trampled>
And what happens to competitive enterprise
if the trend toward monopoly continues to elm
mate competition?
Things that are bad-like thin : hat Nr- 200 !
slip up on you and change yoaf life alncs,
before you know it.
How about taking an inventory a vanraelf and
Your union today?

ENACT LAWS TO HINDER UNIONS

y. concerted campaign to curb trade unions
was launched almost before the shooting in the
Pacific had stopped. 1t moved quietly at first.
then noisily and recklessly-and there no indi-
cation that those waging the campaign will halt
it of their own volition.
The old, old practice Of hiring armel thugs and
goons to work over those who got enthusiastic
about unionism was largely abandoned and a
new practice instituted.
The new practice was known as legislative
union busting.
How far has it gone?
Congress enacted the Taft Hartley act. Thirty
six state legislatures passed anti union measures.
There are many Indications new teeth will BE-
put in these laws if additional anti-labor law
makers are elected in November.
And American workers, while fighting to stave
off Taft Hartleyism. were subjected TO a high
prices squeeze that has hurt millions.

TEE

The charge made over The radio recently By
Gen. Vice President Paul SiemiIer that the steel
companies are to blame FOR a lot Of or shortages
because they have refused to expand production,
should BE read carefully By all trade unionlsts.
Spokesman Tor the STEEL companies can argue
of course. that the industry is expanding It's pro
ductlon. and that about ; million tons OF new
capacity has been added since the war. his IS
true. but it is also true that ) million tons capacity
was taken out Of production during that time. and
the arnaments program IS currently making the
shortage more acute than ever.
The stock answer Of the steel companies IS that
,hclr capacity is large enough 70 handle ordinary
needs. once the boom has subsidized.
The irony OF this argument is that the scarcity
OF steel is Fastening the very business bust that
the steel industry processes to Tear.
The tragedy IS that il is the consumer who must
pay the bill.
