Labor Prediction Fulfilled

When the TaftIartey Act passed. organized labor
predicted that would inevitably make lots of business for
lawyers. That prediction has true with ven
geance, witness the testimony of the many newspaper
stories on litigation arising out of the act.
The situation is summed up neatly by f. A. Korsmeyer,
Wrtng-no, not in labor paperbut in the Wall Street
Journal In his Review and Outlook column from Wash
ngton Korsmeyer notes that the wageprice spiral is still
moving upward and continues:
"In the wage level is a minor issue in the
labor relations field increases having become the accepted
rule The main business here at the moment is dsentangng
collective bargaining from the Taft-Iartley law"
KorSmeyer cites litigation springing from the railroad
dispute, since settled the disputes between the miners and
of captive coal mines and the "hrng hal contro
versy in the maritime industry and says in conclusions
Nothing is clear except that collective bargaining has
given way to collective litigation That expresses the sua

This so-Called Civil Rights Program,
which bears striking resemblance
to conmunistic doctrine and method,
is aimed primarily at the Southern
states but is in fact a threat and
menace to the reserved powers of
all the people and Of all the states
as expressly set forth in the tenth
article of the American Bill of
Rights.
The right of free men to assemble
for the purpose of protecting their
liberties Is an immemorial and in
herent right that is older and more
firmly established in English speak

ment itself, and the present threat
to our states and individual rights
calls for such an assemblage.
WHEREFORE, the undersigned
persons in their capacities as shown,
do hereby issue call for Confer

from all the States to assemble in the
Municipal Auditorium in the City
of jackson, Mississippi, on the 10th
day of May, A. D., l948, for the pur-
pose of formulating and restating the

may be deemed proper and necessary

tional government.

the Braille alphabet. Then we had
a staggering thought, Let's learn
Braille!"
We dashed for our bikes and rode
to the library. The librarians were
both amazed and amused. They
provided us with every book In their
possession on Braille and the blind.
We finally selected several thick
books and began our study in ear
nest.
Braille is a means by which the
blind may read. 1t Is composed OF
groups of raised dots, each standing
for a letter or a group Of letters.
One reads Braille by trimming his
index finger lightly across the page.
Since it is impossible to write on
both sides of the paper, the books
are much larger and often come in
several volumes.

and ate dinner.
In the harbor we watched the

water from the fish they had just
cleaned. Before leaving I went
