 Budenz, who left the party in 1945, told the committee that the party's status as fifth column for Russia in this country is proved by three factors:
 l. "The communist party has never found any defect in Russian policy" and its leaders must do what the Kremlin orders at any specific moment"
 2. The party for years received direct subsidies from Moscow in the form of free news. Budenz said this practice was halted by former attorney general Francis Riddle.
 3. From 80 to 90 per cent of the party's leaders have been trained in Moscow.
 (Budenz was one of the wit nesses at the Seattle hearing of the state legislative un-American activities committee, during its investigation of the Washington State Pension UniOn).

 It turned over to forest service officials today a check for S25,0O0 and within seven days must pay another S75,OOO. The company said it will employ l,200 workers when the mill is completed.
 The sale is the first of five or six forest units in the Tongas na- tional forest the government plans to sell, calling for construction of mills in Alaska to establish a stable industry there.
 The mills would work the year around.

ly IL days were spent in the ac-
tual brick laying for the build
ing. 1t was first started on May
5, according to Lemuel Davis,
who assisted in the mixing of
concrete and other construction
work.
Contractor Patterson said that
about ten weeks were necessary
in the overall construction but
they were held up during a three
week interval, waiting for the
plumbing inspectors.
This important phase of the
new building was in charge of
Hutcheson & Blake, Main street,
local and veteran plumbers of
note for period of years.
John Hayes is proud of the
fact that they never missed a
day Of serving the public during
construction. The building was
first started from the. rear of the
lot, completed as separate unit,
and sales were conducted in this
new addition, while the front of
the building was under construc-
ton.

Truman signed the draft bill
making it law.
Eighteen-year olds, not subject
to the 21-month draft, are already
enlisting in the services through

for one year and then serving a
longer period in the reserves,
they may avoid the draft later.
By law, only $4,000 of the 49,
year olds may be accepted.
Maj. General Lewis B. Hershey,
selective service director, emphas-
lied that all men 18 through 25,

There is also the possibility that
25 year olds will be called first

Whether or not man is eX-

cases. The hearings then ground on,
with the publishers attorney and
Denham's representative submitting
mass of testimony on long-stand-
ing practices of the ITU with the
aim of showing that these practices
violated the Taft Hartley law.
Meanwhile, Local 16 of the Ty-
pos, which is on strike against the
Chicago dailies, came out with a
blunt accusation that the strike
bound Sun and Times, both owned
by Marshall Field, multi-million-
aires "iberal," had hired two de-
Etectlve agencies to do labor spying
in the plant of the two papers.
Fields reputation as a "progres-
sive," the local declared, "has suf-
fered fuHther with the disclosure
that his company has engaged a
second detective agency to spy on
members of other unions still work
ing in the Sun and Times plant
While the local didn't explain
the purpose of the spying, it was
intimated the purpose was to fer
ret out any support being given by
non-striking workers to the Typos.
Another striking development
was settlement reached by the
Columbia Typographical Local 1O1
and the newspapers in the nations
capital, which provided for an $8
a week increase, without any con-
tract of the Taft Hartley type or
otherwise. The settlement was
reached on the eve of a threaten
ed strike, and was approved over

Experts PIon Use
Of Tuff-HurfIev 7

New York (LPA)- o. c. Cool
Director of Labor Relations Insti-
tute, an old hand at advising man
agement on chiselling the workers
and Sidney Fish, N. Y. Journal OF
Commerce "labor expert" last week
told employers how to make the
best use of Taft Hartley.
Anti-boycott provisions of the law
can be interpreted to void union
contract clauses which have pre-
vented employers from sub-con-
tracing work out to other firms,
Cool says. Sub-contracting, the
basis of the sweat-shop system
against which union labor has
fought, is very profitable at times,
Cool reminds. Notwithstanding
provisions of the law, Cool says, if
used vigorously can help reduce
costs.
Taft-Hartley's provision against
unions "coercing" employers in the
choice of bargaining agents may be
used to avoid requests for industry
wide collective bargaining, Cool
thinks. 1t permits employers to
insist upon genuine bargaining at
the local level"
The Journal of Commerce's Fish
is very much afraid that if employ
ers aren't on the alert, labor may
win too many union shop contracts
despite Taft Hartley hindrance. De-
serting the old employer propagan-
da line that rank and file workers
don't want union security contracts,
he admits that unions have been
successful in NLRB elections on the
union shop issue, and urges employ
ers' who grant security contracts to
use this clause as a bargaining fea-
ture against other labor demands.
But don't grant the union shop
too easily, Fish pleads. First put
on campaign to Inform the work
ers of the disadvantages of the
union shop" and then "refuse to
grant it as unsound even where
the workers authorize the union to
for it,"

ExpIodes Tales OF
MaIingering By
Construction Men

Washington (LPA)-A vigorous
defense of organized building
trades workers was presented last
week to the Joint Congressional
Committee on Housing by Presi-
dent Richard Gray of the Building
Construction Trades Dept of the
AFL.
In a detailed description of the
facts on labor's achievements in
manning the construction indus
try, apprentice training, increasing
productivity, Gray insisted that
"Labor's approach has not been re-
strictive, but positive and aggres-
siye." He described the AFLs sup
port of "a long range program
which would assure a supply of
housing Of all types, and especial
ly rental housing, at charges which
the average family can afford"
He exploded once and for all
the much-used argument that union
bricklayers restrict their work to
500 bricks a day. These are the
facts:
"Some years ago the typical
house wall was of solid brick ma
sonry, II to % inches thick. Today
brick-veneer construction has be-
come much more prevalent than in
former years. In this type of con-
struction, the outside or curtain
wall of brick must be backed with
cement block or cinder block, with
a heavy mortar fill. This backing
up is counted in the number of
brick the mason has laid. The work
on this new type of brickveneer
construction is in sharp contrast
with the daily output on a solid
brick wall, on which the number
of brick laid may easily be more
than twice as great in a day. Any
responsible masonry contractor will
testify that even 400 bricks a day
on brick-veneer construction on a
typical single-family house is a
good record of bricklayer's perfor-
nance"
He challenged the assertion that
"the union has been the instrument
tality for slowing down production
with the resulting increase in CON
struction cost. The standard of
skill and performance of the mem
bers is the most valuable asset
that the union possesses" He at
tributed the acknowledged instances
of individual workers slowing down
production to "the cost-plus psy-
chology and speculative character
of boom-time building of the last
two years Such collusive prac-
tees cannot be charged to the
workers alone. They cannot exist
without participation of the EN-
ployer who finds increased cost of
profitable"
