Joint Committee OF
Scandinavian Labor
Meets In Stockholm

STOCKHOLM, November s.
(By airmaiD-The community of
interests among the Scandinavian
Labor Parties was summarized by
Prime Minister Tage Erlander of
Sweden at the end of a recent
meeting here of the Joint Com
mittee of the Scandinavian Labor
Movement. He said:
ct is true that there is
marked individuality of character
in the members of the Scandi-
navian group, and our experiences
have certainly been different. But
our valuations and our actions are
based on a similar, not to say
common, view of essentials, which
may be expressed in a single
word: Freedom. That means both
external independence and in
ternal liberty - Democracy, in
fact. By freedom we also mean
the security enjoyed by its citi-
zens. Cooperation within the Scan
dinavian Labor Movement &C
quires a special weight and i'm
portance by the fact that in all
the Northern countries Social
Democracy has attained a domi-
nant position. In a world in which
extremist tendencies seem to have
an almost violent attraction for
people, this is a remarkable sign.
1t testifies to the political stand
ard of our people. 1t is also an
expression of the sense of balance
of the Nordic mind
Among the participants We're

Hansen of Denmark, Einar Ger

200 tons of oil, she ought to re-
main afloat at least as far as the
Shak. We set course for Hirtshals
and followed the Danish Coast as
closely as possible, prepared to
beach her if necessary.
"Off the Skaw we had to make
the second difficult decision.
Would she float across the Skag-
gerrack? 1t did not look impos-
sible. With heavy beam sea run
ming, we let her all out. There
were no unemployed horse-powers
in the engine room. 1 can tell you.
I shut my eyes sometime, when
she shipped it green over the
whole forepart of the hull. Those
three hours from the Shaw until
the pilot boarded us at Vinga light
house off Gothenburg seemed like
so many months or years. No pilot
was ever more welcome" the Cap
tain concludes his story.

Loses Damage Suit
Against l. & n. Railroad

LOUISVILLE, Sept. %. (ANP)
Hall, of Cincinnati, lost
out in his suit for an injunction
and $4,000 damages charging the
Louisville & Nashville railroad
with racial discrimination in pro-
noting two white men. Federal
court Judge MacSwinford ruled
last Wednesday that when the l..
& N. advanced returning war vet
Grams in seniority at the DeCour-
cey shops, it was an terror in
management"
In the testimony, it was shown
that the two men had been adj
vanced also over other white en-
ployes. Rail officials contended
they gave this advanced seniority
on the belief that it was the right
thing to do under an interpreter
ton of the selective service act.
"The promotions e not prop
er to the exclusion of other labor
.ers as a Glass;" Judge Swinford
said, in pointing out that there
was Justification in saying racial
discrimination existed prior to
1945 when a federal court or
der was issued against it," .
AS for Halls petition, the judge
refused to issue an injunction "be-
cause I cannot stop something not
in practice" He also denied the
monetary damage.
