3-Week Illness
Claims Life Of
OTTO S. Boyer

Otto Sternoff Boyer, nationally
known labor relations expert, mem
Der of the National Mediation
Board from 1886 to 1912 and a
leader in labor-management coop
Grafton for more than a quarter OF
century, died here Dec. s after a
3-week illness. He was 62.
Boyer, who was member of the
international Association of Ma
chinists, became interested in the
idea of cooperation between labor
and management early in his car
eer. His views came to the atten-
tion of the late Daniel Willard,
president of the Baltimore & Ohio
Railroad, who sponsored the we'll
known labor-management coopera-
ton plan on that railroad. Boyer
directed the plan and it won the at
tention of Sir Henry w. Thornton,
president of the Canadian Nation
al Railways, who invited him to
sponsor such a plan on the Canad-
ian railroad
AS industrial relations consult
ant to the Tennessee Valley Auth
ority, Boyer developed a success
full labor relations plan in coop
Grafton with a group of AFL un-
ions, whose members are employed
on the project. He served in j
similar capacity with the Bonne-
vile Power Authority, the U. S.
Maritime Commission, the Alaska
Railroad and the U. S. Interior De-
partment.
Born in Woodbridge, n. j., Sept.
Is, 1886, Boyer was graduated
from the Stevens Institute of Tech
nology in 1907 and did graduate
work at the Universities of New
York and Pennsylvania. From 1920

Relations for the Federal Coordi-

Union Spokesmen lndict Corporations
For Profit Levels At All Time hiqh

Washington (LPA)-One of the
harshest indictments of the way
Americ corporations operate
ever presented to Congress was
made last week by spokesmen foi
AFL and CIO appearing before g
Congressional subcommittee inves
tigating profits.
AFL representative N e o 4
Cruikshank, who appeared along
with Margaret Scattergood of the
AFL research department, assert
ed that current high prices create
today's high profits. Thru prices
paid for consumers goods, he in
sisted, buyers are providing cap
ital for industries over which they
have no control and from which
they received no dividends.
"This is a kind of taxation by
corporation without representa-
tion," Cruikshank told the commit
tee, which is part of the Joint
Congressional Committee on the
Economic Report, set up under the
Employment Act of 1916. ''"'~'
Corporate profits, after taxes,
in 1948 will be more than FIVE times
what they were during the period
1862" CIO Research & Educa-
tion Director Stanley Ruttenberg
told the committee. He drew up
an Indictment of "the self-interest,
short sighted, depression-p producing
thinking of American industry that
must be altered if we are to avoid
serious economic dislocations."
He urged Chairman Ralph Fland-
ers (R., Vt.) to take up with the
spokesman for steel corporations,
who will appear this week and next
week, the CLOS charge that the
steel industry is holding back ex-
pansion and keeping high reserves
and "is safeguarding itself against
the depression which it believes
will inevitably come" And these
very actions, Ruttenberg warned,
are Fastening depression.

he said, "of making profits thru

high prices, instead of making the

reasonable level of profits thru low
prices and maximum production"

Miners Consent
To Allegations

Washington (LPA)-The United
Mine Workers last week permitted
the NLRB to record, without con-
test, a decree against the union to
clear board dockets of four COM
plants against the union.
All of the employer allegations,
which NLRB General Counsel Rob-
ert Denham's office picked up,
charge the union with having coer-
ced workers thru mass picketing
during last springs coal strike.
No guarantee was given by the
UNIV, however, that when the
NLRB files its decree with US
circuit court, it won't discover that
it has walked into hornets nest.

ASA poet, have often wished could have

Of course it is natural to have nervous

is acquainted with the panic that seizes one
just before the occasion, and we are told that

Colonel NenShd Attacks Irgun

A high-ranking American army
reserve officer who served under
General Bradley during the last
war, and who recently returned
from a visit to Palestine to obtain
first hand. information about how
our contributions to U. ]. A. are
being used III the reception and
rehabilitation of Jewish displaced
persons. and in Israeps defense
arrangements, dashed out this
week against "acts of murder and
treason" perpetuated by the Irgun
Zvai Leumi and the Stern gang.
In an exclusive interview, Colonel
Harry D. Henshel, Vice-President
of the Bulova Watch Company
and a leader in the United Jewish
Appeal, told of his visits to the
fighting fronts inside Jerusalem
during the critical days when all
the roads to the Holy City were
severed by Arab troops. He and
another American reserve officer,
Colonel Melvin Kdulewitch, U. S.
Marine Corps, had been "smug-
gled" through the Arab lines from
the Dead Sea by a Haganah Of
ficer while Jerusalem was under
siege.
"There were several distinct in
cidents I came across which ex-
ploded the myth of Irgun leader
ship in the battle for Jewish indie
pendence," Col. Henshel stated.
Throughout the last war I was

COLONEL HARRY HENSHEL
logistics officer in charge of air
movements under General Brad
ley; and for time assigned to the
u. S. Administrative Staff, Il
Army Group British, while Cen
eral Bradley was under General
Montgomery in the preparations
for D-Day and for the first two
months of the operations IN
France. I know the vital import
ance of supply. So I was able to
appreciate the danger to Israel in
it's critical battle of Jerusalem
when every bullet in the Haganah
arsenal counted, when no supplies
food or ammunition had come
into Jerusalem in six weeks. In
spite of this, the Irgun and Stern
gangs raided these short combat
supplies, went off on a shooting
fray of their own against the in
offensive Arab village of Dir
Yassin which had no military
value or purpose; instead it open
ed up a new fighting front behind
the tired boys and girls of Haga-
nah who fought five days and
nights to capture Mt. Kastel in
order to open the road from Tel
Aviv to bring in supplies to starv-
ing Jerusalem. This was at time
when every bullet and every
weapon had to be boarded. Yet
the Irgun-Stern gangsters gave
thought only to false glory, at
the expense of Jerusalem's secur-
ity."
Continuing, the iron-grey haired
! six footer whose appearance be-
lies the inactive" status on his
army papers, spoke of the per-
sonal loss he felt when DR.. Hahn
Yassky, head of the Hadassah
Hospital, was killed in an Arab
attack on a hospital ambulance
convoy. "This DEATH" said Col.
Henshel, twas in my opinion di-
rectly due to the Irgun-Stern at
tack on Dir Yassin."
Turning to other phases of
Israel that he say at first hand,
Colonel Henshel expressed the
highest admiration for the type
of Jewish workers he encountered.
'The Histadrut made a most fav-
orable impression. They have
vision and create opportunities for
the new corners. I believe that
when the present troubles are
over, the friendly relations estab-
lished between Histadrut and the
Arab people will be resumed.
There should be no difficulties be-
tween the two. Therefore, 1 am
optimistic about the future" Col.
Henshel added that "the Jews
have set great example in hui
man history. Take Beth Haarava
the House in the Desert on the
Dead Sea-which has been evac-
uated for security reasons. This
settlement is pearl in the desert
just as Israel is a gem in the
Middle East which will be appre-
ciated more and more as time
goes on"
