The Progressive
Comes Back

MADISON, Jan. IA (LPA)-
With an editorial headed Re
surrection," the Progressive, the
LaFollette's newspaper W h C h
printed its last issue Oct. 6, re-
sumed publication this month as
a non-profit cooperative month
ly magazine.
More than $4,000, every
penny of it contributed by its
readers, made the dreamed-of
revival of the Progressive a
reality, said its editors. "We are
working with a smaller staff
than ever" they announced,
"but it is a labor of love and
hope. We are working with a
new formal and a new tempo
and they present a multitude of
problems but we count it rare
privilege to embark on this ex-
citing adventure"
The LaFollettes are divesting
themselves of all ownership and
control which will go to the
foundation of contributing SUBJ
scribers but the editorial policy
remains one for progressive
democracy"

(LPA)-Veterans of World War
II will rally here in February
for a big-scale conference in
tended to impress Congress with
the need for fast action on the
Taft Ellender Wagner housing
bill.
Three leading youthful poll
ticians, all We rams, visited
President Truman last week, to
tell him about the conference
and to invite him to address the
Rep. John KeNnedy
d., Mass.), Franklin D. Roose-
welt, Jr., and Robert Wagner,
Jr., son of the veteran New
York author Of the Wagner Act,
were the three.
Meanwhile, reports that Sen.
Taft might be weakening in his
support of the housing bill
which bears his name-the only
Taft measure supported by or
ganized labor-were confirmed.
Taft told a reporter for the
Washington Post that he be-
lieved he would have to COM
promise in order to get any
housing legislation at all.

sembly production by squeezing
Dept. 40 into half the original
space in the new building. BY
this same brainy gush, no assem-
bly, space should quadruple pro-
duction. Some sense, eh?

Carl Baum, who is convalesc-
ing at his home, wishes to thank
the Unit for the wonderful Christ;
mas presents.

arm so bad. We wish Bob and
Rollie speedy recoveries.
Now that George Frisbie is
back on Assembly again, Al Lob
bauer will start his long awaited
vacation!
The boys in Dept. 40 would
like to know if the management

We wish to remind John Kloe-
sen the next time he wants to
know something about his work
to ask the new leader, Louie
Bateman. Shame on you, Louie!

UNIT Proposals

ASHIN TON, Jan. IA
(LPA)-The War Department S
watering down of the first
years application of its uni
versal military training program
in time for endorsement in the
Presidents State of the Union
message didn't increase its pop
ularity in the labor movement.
A request for further hear
ings to permit presentation OF
more representative opposition
to the House Military Affairs
Committee was sent to Rules
Committee Chairman Leo Allen
(R., Ill.) by the Workers De-
fense League of which many
AFL and CIO officials are mem
bers.
While labor remained almost
solidly opposed to UNIT, Tru-
mans recommendation for its
speedy enactment received the
support of Governor Thomas E.
Dewey of New York, who hopes
to be the Presidents challenger
in this years elections.
Congressional opinion is still
divided without much reference
to party affiliation. Rep. Walter
G.. Andrews (R., N. " is seek
ing clearance from the Rules
Committee to bring his commit
tees version of UNIT, the Towe
Bill, to an early vote on the
House floor.
Principal feature of the War
Departments suggested revision
in UNIT legislation is a proposal
not to induct any of the eligibles
into full time training the first
year, only one-third the second
year, two-thirds of the 18-year-
olds during the third year, and
all of them in the fourth year of
the program. The Navy has
come up with the idea that it
can train its quota on dry land.

He's loose in the Scale. Known
as the Terrible Terror or Gun
Singing bandit, also known as

was bad, but not that bad.
Barbering with haircuts at 81

racket, but it has a new angle
now. Robert (Little Lush) Mar

travelled to Trilby to have the
committee barber, Dan Biker,
trim them. And he did. AS Bill
was playing the one-armeo
bandit, Bike grabbed coin while
Bill was getting more change
hurried around the chair, knock

and then added insult to injury
by hitting the jackpot. The boys

They Call II The
Fourth Estate"

w AS HI N G T 0 N, Jan. Il
LPA) - Reporters who wear
out their shoe-leather covering
a beat will be happy to know
that they are engaged in a full
fledged profession" In fact, they
are engaged in very high-type
intellectual pursuit, involving
the exercise of great judgment
and discrimination.
Like the school teacher and
the hospital nurse, however,
it's a tough business, being a
professional Now, the pub
fishers have clashed with the
American Newspaper G / d.
CIO over what constitutes a
professional or administrative
employe.
The issue is whether or not
reporters are paid overtime
after 40 hours work week, as
required by the present rules
under the Fair Labor Standards
Act.
At hearings before officials of
the Wage & House Division of
the Labor Dept last week, Ex-
ecutive Vice Pre- 81 d e mt Sam
Eubanks of the ANG got down
to cases with General Manager
Cranston Williams of the Ameri-
can Newspaper Publishers AS
sociation on the other side of the
table.
The Guild spokesman pro-
posed a salary test of $500 a
month as a minimum to qualify
for exemption of executives, ad-
ministrative and professional
employees from overtime COM
pensation requirements of the
law. At present, the test is 5000
month, level set in 1910.
Williams argued that journal
ism is profession.
EubankS quoted in retort H. L.
Menken, director of the Balti-
more Sun newspapers, who once
wrote that "The Journalist re-
mains, for all his dreams, hired
man -. and hired man is not a
professional man. The essence of
the professional man is that he
is answerable for his professional
conduct only to his professional
peers. A physician cannot be
fired by anyone A lawyer is
in the same boat. So is a dentist.
So, even is a horse doctor. But
a journalist still ling ers in
the twilight zone along with
the traine e d nurse, the en-
balmer :"

Quite few fellows had better
watch out, for this is Leap Year,
and the girls are plenty. Two
fellows of Dept. 10 were caught
and one more will be if he
doesn't start running.
Our deepest sympathy is ex-
tended to the immediate family
and close friends of Al Wineke,
who was a faithful employee of
the machine shop for the past 20
years.
My, what a cute face Jerry
Brown was seen wearing last
week. That mustache woul d
make a good broom for sweeping
Dept. 10.
1t is very surprising to see
such a slim crowd at the last
meeting, especially for the nom
ination of the new committeeman
1t seems the ones that never come
seem to do the gripping later.
Lean Year started out with a
bang in Dept, 10. First, Don
Wright married Jan. 3. Then
came Tommy, married Jan. TO-
Didn't get in Monday morning,
Now there's talk who's next
Don Kapp and Nancy or Jack
Hoots and Edna. Don and Jack
are asking all the married men
about married life. Everyone
says it's just what you make it.
Jimmy Van Kirk still hasn't set
his date yet. What's the matter,
jim?
Do you want to be a good
bowler? If you do, this is what
you have to do: When you are
out bowling and can't control the
ball start beefing, push the bowl
ing balls around that are on the
rack, cuss and get the rest of the
team in the same mood, ano
when you take your stride you
have such a long face that you
can kick your chin around the
approach so the rest of the bowl
ers can slide around. This should
make everyone happy and inter
ested in the sport. Then to top il
off don't keep score because it is
your job as captain to sit on the
side like Ounce if you run out
of cuss words.
