SAVING OFF THE LIMB

In one Of the most remarkable statements ever MADE Dy
supposedly responsibly people the Railway LABOR EXECUTIVES
ASSOCIATION has passed a resolution calling upon the govern
ment to begin preparations for the transfer OF railroad owner
ship from private interests to the United States OF America
Inasmuch as the railroads represent an investment OF
something like thirty billion dollars, that IS a large order. 100,
it is a little difficult to understand in the light OF our exper-
fence in World War | when the government took over the
industry, lost billions, and standards OF service declined sharp
". But, even disregarding these points, one wonders just
what the railway labor leaders have in mind.
Perhaps they feel they could blackjack the government
out of more wage increases Maybe, they could, Tor the time
being. But the whole history Of socialism and communism
which are the economic systems based on government owner
ship of Enterprises a history of the enslavement OF the
working man. No one can strike against the government. NO
one can go to work for someone else if government has a
monopoly. No one con protest against decision of government
and be sure of recourse and fair treatment. The commands OF
government, like the commands Of the head Of a military force,
are necessarily final.
In the words of the New York Times, These leaders
have not merely crawled out on a very long limb; they now
seem intent on extricating themselves from their predicament
by the dubious technique of saving off the limb" Specialization
of industry would be the surest way to destroy labors gains
and to destroy freedom for all Of us.

COMMITTEE FOR
DEMOCRATIC RIGHTS

Len Goldsmith, Executive
Secretary Of the Committee
for Democratic Rights, today
called upon Leon Henderson,
Chairman of the Americans 70,
Democratic Action, and Jack
Knoll, Chairman of the CIO
Political Action Committee to
appear before the Credentials
Committee of the Democratic
National Convention to oppose
the seating in the Convention
OF all delegates elected by poll
votes and members and sup
porters Of the Ku Klux Khan.
In the event that the Gre
dentials Committee refuses to
heed this protest, the Commit
tie For Democratic Rights call
ed upon Henderson and Knoll
to carry the credentials fight
to the floor oa the grounds
that the f'Democrstic Party
cannot rightfully claim sup
port of any decent thinking
American as long as it per-
mits, racists advocates Of
white supremacy and meters
OF lynching to participate il

The text of the kilograms to
Knoll and Henderson are as
follows:
Gas delegate to Democratic
National Convention, we call
upon you to appear before
Credentials Committee and
oppose seating of any delegate
elected by a poll tax vote, on
grounds that such election is
unconstitutional. Abstract
statements defnding Negro
rights to vote and participate
in the affairs Of our nation are
meaningless unless accompan-
led by action. We urge that if
Credentials Committee fails
to heed such protest that floor
fight be made against seating
Of these delegates as well as
any delegate who is a member
or supporter of the Ku Klux

not rightfully claim support of
any decenpt thinking Ameri
can as long as it ermits racists,

PATTERN FOR LABOR PEACE

Settlement of the General Motors labor dispute on the
basis of a sliding scale cost-of-oving wage adjustment may
prove to be the most significant development in Industrial
labor relations in recent years.
While similar arrangements have been successfully in e-
feet for some time in a few small businesses, the GIN agree
ment, affecting 225OOO employees, is the first costof-hving
contract to be worked out by a major industrial firm. 1t may
set a pattern for settlement of strikes presently curtaiing pro-
duction in other large-scale industries. If successful, it should
take the sting out Of the additionally bitter labor controversies
that have plagued the Nation with increasing force.
One fault economists have found in cost-of-iving con-
tracts is their eventual effect Of freezing living standards. The
GIN pact, however, appears to have overcome that objection
by providing for annual supplement adjustments based on
improved industrial efficiency.
1t remains to be seen whether the new agreement will
prove successful in all respects. But if industry and labor
prove they can develop a workable formula for lasting indus
trial cooperation without the necessity for Government inter-
vention, a vastly important forward stride will have been AIKEN
for the Nations benefit.

GETTING THE STEEL OUT

Walter S. Tower, president Of the American Iron and
Steel Institute, recently replied to a number of the wild ac-
cusations that have been flung at the steel industry.
From some of the charges, uniformed people might think
steel production was at an extreme low. Yet, in 1947, tonnage
shipped was nearly 20 million tons above the best previous
non-war year, and in, the first quarter Of l948 it approached
the war peak.
Steel is supposed to have made incredible profits. But,
while 1oH shipments were 40 per cent over 1929, its profits
were actually less than IN the earlier year.
The United States has about onefifteenth Of the worlds
population. Last year we had more steel than as made in
all the rest of the world.
Steel has been accused of callously running up the price
But if anyone takes the trouble to read the dry statistical
tables he will find that increases in steel prices have Jagged
behind increases for most other commodities. If steel were
sold by the industry on a straight supply-demand basis prices
would hit the roof, as the gray market, which the industry
has been fighting, proves.
Finally, very large amounts Of new steel capacity are
being installed as rapidly as materials can be secured. The
shortage of scrap, over which the industry has no control, is
a serious limiting factor on current output. Steel will produce
to the limit Of its abiity-and it will sell what it produces at
the lowest practical price

Three hundred and fifty-one
thousand dozens Of eggs were i'm

Many of these eggs were brought
into the state when Montana
farmers were struggling to dis
pose of their eggs for as low as

the recent state legislature passed
a law which if properly enforced

keep Canada thistle or quack
grass infestations from going to
bloom. The weed commissioner
has authority to go onto private
property and eradicate these
weeds if, after six days notice,

them. Fines and Jail sentences are

Summer Tilling
Flowing should be about 7
inches deep on the average Mon
tana dry land soil for old ground.
In the summer tillage operation,
the pillow should be followed
closely by the subsurface packer
and harrow. I have received good
results by using a very small
packer and one section of har-
row hitched behind the pillow
(using an extra horse). When this
is not practical or desirable, one
should hitch on the packer and
harrow at least once each day,
and if the weather is very hot or
windy, twice a day, and pack and
harrow what has been plowed
that day.-ALVIN C. HULL.

industry has been reached, and
while we cannot expect to see

felt by the breeders, and although
comparatively few sales are be-
ing made because of money con-
ditions, the potential market is
evident.
