Whats This?

The National Association of Real Estate Boards
of the effective obbes in Congress- recently issued
press release complaining bitterly about the injustice of
rent controls.
The Association complains that the rent control law
confiscates the equities of landlords and then makes this
remarkable statement:
"The counting of noses to determine what is right
and what is wrong is not American democracy but per-
version of it."
We don't know where this Association picked up this
strange doctrine but it certainly is ant-Amercan
anything we have heard
This country founded the principle that the well
fare of the people first and that the rights and priv
eges of the select few take back seat when their
rights conflict with the public welfare.
That the real estate agents seek to put their sefshness
ahead of the public welfare is it us, direct admis
sion that their complaint is without any real merit.

Made Work

Now that the margarine fiasco is on the record, let's
not have any talk from Republicans in Congress
about featherbedding by unions
In voting to pigeonhole 16 bills to the unfair
unjust and discriminatory tax coOred margarine 16 Re-
publican members of the House Agriculture Committee have
shown themselves to be of convenience rather than
men of principle
After all the fussing and fumng about union rules
thought these umers and fuSSes would make short
work of the that requires the housewives to color
garne But that made work rule doesn't bother the Repub
lcan Congressman because the darymen like it.
The only reasonable conclusion is that these Congress-
men haven't anything against featherbeddng such They
lust use it as another stick to beat labor

What Is The NAM Hiding?

Though weak and almost entirely lacking in enforce
ment the federal statute to regulate obbes passed by the
last Congress, has given the ters to the National Assoca
tion of Manufacturers Under the law all lobbyists must
register Their acts accounts clients and such
subject to congressional investigation And, how the NAM
hates that!
To show its animosty toward the lobbyist law the
NAM has hired batch of lawyers filed suit in the courts
and asked for injunction to stop enforcement BY con-
raSt Organized Labor complied with the law and is
all for it, Labor however has nothing to hide Wonder what
the NAM is hiding?

While young Bob was fashioning the victory that brought the total of American track and field cham pionships to nine, pretty Victoria Manalo braves of Pasadena, Calif., won her second diving champion ship She is the first woman to do this in Olympic history. She added the high platform title to her previ- ous springboard crown.
