JUNEAU SPRUCE
 FILES SECOND
 NLRB CHARGES
National Labor Relations Board Examiner Here
 on Investigation

Howard Hilbun Field Examiner for the National Labor Relations Board, left Juneau yesterday for Fairbanks. Hilbun has been inves- tigating the labor dispute between the Juneau Spruce Corporation and the CIO Longshore Union, based on new charges.
 In the charge, which was filed with the NLRB on August 3 by the Corporation, the Corporation alleges that there is jurisdictional dispute between the International Wood workers Association and the CIO Longshoremen and it further alleges that the CIO Longshoremen at tempted to cause the employer to discriminate in regard to the hire of employees.
 A similar case was presented to the NLRB in May and was dismissed on the grounds that there was no dispute. Since that time. changing |conditions have brought about the filing of new charges. The new sta tns was brought about by the fact that on their return to work in July the IVA agreed to cross the CIO picket lines and to load com lpany barges.

WRITER DEBATES FUTURE OF U. S.
 INITIATION ERA
By WAYNE OLIVER

Here's the question everybody wants the answer to--is imitation be- ing checked?
 Let's look over some of the evi- dence on 10th sides. Many farm prices recently have plunged below the bottom they reached during the February break in commodity pri- ces, and in the opinion of many, these prices will rot go up again. Reports this week of bountiful crops seem to confirm these forecasts. The notable exception. of course. expect high prices for meat for some months.
 Farm prices are the traditional gauge for all the prices the con- sumner has to pay. Historically they |rise first and drop first in general price movements. So business lead- CTS. economists and Wall Street all are watching the nations markets closely these days along with the farmers All are trying to figure out what lies ahead for the whole econ omy.
 They are watching to see whether industrial raw materials and other items will follow farm prices down or stacilize without further price increases.
 However, the overall price structure fails to tell the whole story, and this may be significant for all of us. For instance. the industrial raw mater ials have advanced above the high of last January So have the non- ferrous metals such as tin, zinc, lead and copper. So has livestock.

 WASHINGTON - Uncle Joe Cannon of Danville, H., longtime COP speaker of the House of Rep resentatives, was famous for two things: The straightest and long, est aim of any tobacco-chewer in Congress; and the iron-handed dictatorship which he imposed on the House of Representatives for a quarter of a century.
 Eventually, a coalition of Demo- crats and progressive Republicans rebelled against Uncle Joe and the days of Cannonism were supposed to have ended
 One week ago today, however Cannonism was back in the House of Representative in all its short. sighted, mail-fisted glory.

Tobin Accepts Labor Dept, Post ' Mdybdnk Wins
 in South Carolina

WASHINGTON, Aug. l2.-lR- President Truman added recorc vote-getter to his Cabinet today and Democratic party aides hoped the newcomer, Maurice J. Tobin would help corral the labor ballot in November.
 Tohin stepped out of the Massa- chusetts Governors race last night to accept the post of Secretary of Labor. which has been vacant since the death of Lewis B. Schwellenbach June 10.
 The 47-year-old New Englander brings to Washington political record in which CD he twice de- feated James M. Curley for Mayor of Boston, the stronghold of that veteran Democratic party leader; @, in winning the Bay State Gcvernorship in l944, he became the first candidate to top the mill lion-vote mark in a gubernatorial race there. In fact, Tobin polled 13,000 more votes than the late President Roosevelt received in the state.
 Attack Administration
 Some other Democrats, mean while, fired new broadsides against a Truman legislative program, which they branded as oppressive. Gov. J. Strom Thurmond of South Carolina told cheering States Rights party launching in Houston last night that Mi. Tru- mans civil rights program calls for a police state in this country. 2
 The Dixiecrats. however, may face legal comeback from the pro- Truman forces. Democratic party officers said court action may be taken in some southern state to compel state electors to ,ote for the national ticket.
 Gov. Thomas l.. Dewey, the COP nominee. joined in the attack on the Truman administration. He told the executive committee of the Young Republican National Fedora tion in Albany that the Democrats were resorting to easy remedies and quack solutions for the na- tion's problems.
 And Rep. Hugh D. Scott. Jr.. COP National Chairman said the Truman administration was not being honest" with the people on the tax, price and imitation issues. l, Scott told the Young Republican leaders that the COP ran the !
