Practices approved for pay
ment in Union County under the
program are:
l. Fertilizer applied on nurse
crops for legume seedlings or on
pastures and meadows.
2. Application of lining ma
terials.
3. Construction of sod water
ways.
f. Excavation for installation
of tile drainage on cropland.
5. Re-seeding permanent pas
lures.
6. Moving pastures to prevent
formation of weed seed.
Z. Green manure crops.
Participating farmers are now
receiving payments for practices
completed during 1947. Compu-
tation of about IS percent of
these payments has been COM
pleted. Due to the fact that the
County was granted additional
funds these farmers will receive
the maximum payment approved
for their farm, if all approved
practices were completed.

Clegg Dairy was present. Willard
Hill, owner of the Elm Dairy,
was unable to attend because of
the illness of his small son. But
contact with Mr.. Hill before the
meeting, indicated he intended
to cooperate 100 percent.
1t was brought out during the
discussion that both the health
board and the dairieS had been
more or less careless in santa
ton and inspection during the
past few years, both parties ad-
mitting the erroneous actions
charged each other during the
sometimes heated arguments.
Clegg Presents Figures
Mr.. Clegg presented figures on
bacteria count for his milk, TAX
en- once weekly for the past three
weeks by a reliable and author
lied laboratory which revealed
count of 700 to 1900, first
week; 1900 to 5000, second week;
700 to 5000, third week. In con-
clusion Mr.. Clegg said:
IF the county board will send
a man out to my place for an in
spectiOn and take a sample into
the state labratory for a fair
count they will find it satisfact-
ory and safe, if its not I'll close
up and quit the dairy business"
DR., Ramsey, health commission
promised that such an inspection
would be made in the very near
future.
At this point, Board president
William j. Porter pointed out
that this was no controversy be-
tween h e health director and
the dairymen, but that the doc
tor was merely following out the
orders of the board to take care
of an item that had been sadly
neglected during the past few
years-the fact that dairieS had
had no close inspection.
Milk Can Be Dangerous
DR.. Ramsey stated that one in
stance that made him more strict
on his milk inspection was the
fact that he had been on a float
ing hospital in Boston Bay, where
many children from slIm dis
trfcts of that city were taken on
week-ends for treatment. The
doctor said in part:
Il have seen many children
die on each weekend, and the
result has been invariably traced
to the consumption of contami-
mated milk, While that condition
does not exist in Marysville or
Union County, there is no reason
why we cannot have clean,
wholesome milk. With the CO.

d2T0G OIl WIldI Il1C law AAACoAAo
Last week the NLRB heads
appeared b eff o r e the Joint
Labor Management Relations
Committee to discuss proposed
changes in the Taft-Hartley law
and explain. why the board is so
far behind in its work. But the
main thing the Congressman
were interested in was the Her
zog-Denham split on the ques-
ton of whether or not the law
requires NLRB to handle labor
disputes in every little business
that affects" interstate COM
merce.
Herzog says no, because to do
so wouldn't "effectuate the poll
cies of the Act" and besides the
board has enough to do anyway.
Denham, on the other hand,
maintains that the board is obli-
gated to take all cases that even
slightly bear on interstate COM
merce. He believes that the 1947
act was designed to protect a
complex web of relations" =
union-employe, union-employer,
employer -employe - and so the
board must take action on all
cases within its jurisdiction,
Workload or no Workload.
Virtually all of the members
of the Joint Committee agree
with Herzog. In many cases this
willingness to deemphasize Taft
Hartley stems from the obiec-
tions of small, local businessmen
as well os unions to having the
shaos- provoking law injected
into labor management relations
in their businesses.
Union shop authorization cleo
tions were pointed to by Herzog
as the principal reason for the
boards ever-growing backlog.
He said, however, that excluding
them $4,000 cases will probably
be submitted to NLRB during
1948.
The board chairman said that
the NLRB is now using printed
form decisions to dispose of
routine cases, and urged an in
crease in the number of board
members from five to seven or
nine to further speed up its
work.
Replying to Herzog's state
ment that the board itself does
not agree with the general coun-
sells Interpretation of its juris-
dictional problems. Denham ac-
cused Herzog and his colleagues
of ducking their duties under
the law. He said that Taft-Hart-
ley gives him the responsibility
of issuing complaints, and the
board hasn't any right to dis
miss them because they affect
only small businesses or because
they're too busy. The sum total
of little businesses have "a
stupendous affect upon inter
state commerce" he said.

tive rush been stirred up by
a crowd of a bout 5000
"Mundt bill foes" who appeared
in Washington last week., most
of them members of organiza-
tions generally thought to be
under Communist influence.
Leon Henderson, chairman OF
Americans for Democratic Ac-
ton, of which many AFL and

of the demonstration was to Sc
cure passage of the bill, in hope
of gaining sympathy through

House office buildings. They
separated into three groups, one
of which picketed the White
House, while the others sent
delegations into Republican and
Democratic national committee
headquarters. Many of them
wore wallace for President
buttons.
Some Congressional leaders
interpreted the move as an at
tempt to credit Henry Wallace
followers with the defeat OF
legislation which had little or
no chance of passing.

Fearing just such a reaction,
Emil Macy, secretary-treasurer
of the United Auto Workers-CIO
wired Committee G h air m a n
Alexander Wiley (R., Wis.,:
Don't Be Suckers
Don't be suckers for the left

Communist collaborators seem
to be trying to provoke you and
the Senate into passing the

ties control bill.
Lets keep the Communist
Party, its front organizations,
its stooges and dupes above the
ground and out of the cracks in
the woodwork SO that they can
be dealt with by facts, reason
and existing law under the Con-
stitution including the Bill of

In a similar vein, Socialist
presidential candidate Norman
Thomas, who the previous week
end testified before the COM
mittee against the Mundt bill
wired: do not let justifiable ir-
ritation at tactics of Communist
Wallace alliance influence your
committees critical considera-
ton of the Mundt bill. Powers
given to attorney general in bill
are subject to enormous abuse. "
AFL legislative representative
Lewis Hines pointed out in his
testimony against the proposal:
Encouragement should be given
to organized labor as the one
instrumentality in America that
can successfully cope with the
onward march of communism.
One Principle
Commenting on the picketing
of the White House, the current
issue of the CIO News says: at
Is obvious that all--or most
Of those who joined this demon
stration are pro- Wallace and
therefore opposed to President
Truman. But, oppose President
Truman or not, there is one
principle on which he has held
firm. That principle is civil
liberties, which, as the CIO has
stated, would be seriously i'm
periled by the passage Of the
Mundt-N Nixon bill. And, he has
indicated he will veto the bill,
If 1t is passed
you can't defeat vicious legis-
lation by stupidity. The White
House picketing was disgusting
ly stupid"
But the Senate Judiciary
Committees action delaying its
final consideration Of the bill
into this week means that the
President probably will not be
called upon to veto the bill. 1t
probably won't get to him.
