I found that Mr.. Denham was away
because Of illness, but Mr.. Shroyer
arranged for the meeting with Mr..
Johns and Mr.. Finding In charge
of the case. Because there was q
conference Of Republican Senators
that morning scheduled to last most
of the day, asked that the meeting
be in my Office.
It was able to leave the Repub-
lican conference only for 10 minutes,
but understand the publishers pre-
sented the facts upon which they
claimed there had been violation
of the injunction and urged prompt
action.
Stresses Interest in Case.
During the 10 minutes I was
present at the meeting, I made a
general statement relating to the
Importance of prompt action in
cases of this kind if the prosecuting
division of the board found that the
facts justified it. 1 urged that there
be no delay simply because of Mr..
Denham's absence, which might be
prolonged because of his illness. I
did not purport to pass on the facts
of the case, except to say that the
publishers seemed to me to have
made out prima facie case.
"Of course have special inter-
est in the enforcement of the Ma
tional Labor Relations Act, as chair
man of the Labor Committee and
as a member of the special COM
mittee to study the enforcement of
the act. Congress refused to give
any employer or labor union the
right to take direct action against
unfair labor practices. All such
action must be taken through the
National Labor Relations Board.
The success of the act and its en-
forcement, therefore, depends upon
the wise, effective and prompt ac-
tion of the prosecuting division OF
the board whether it be against en-
ployer or labor union. 1t is con-
templated and is entirely proper
that the party who is injured by the
unfair practice should 60 to the
prosecuting division headed by Mr..
Denham, give the facts at his dis
posal and ask for action. Failure
to take such action, if justified by
such facts would be a misfeasance
on the part of the board and might
lead to a complete notification Of
the act.
Confident of Denham Fairness.
Il stated that 1 had no direct
knowledge of the facts, but urged
upon the board careful considere-
ton of the facts presented by the
publishers and prompt action if
justified by such facts. The board
apparently found that the facts
justified an application for con-
tempt proceedings, because they
have filed such proceedings before
the United States District Court.
May 1 say that I have the great
est confidence in the fairness and
good judgment of MIR. Denham,
who heads the enforcement divl-
sion. I may point out that this
division is entirely separated from
the judicial section of the board

Taft Attack Charges Truman
Backs Defiance of Labor Law

prima facie case, every Senator
and Congressman urges prompt
action, or some reason for failure
to act. I suppose President Tru-
man must have done this a thou
sand times when he was Senator
His War Investigating Committee
frequently urged action by district
attorneys where they felt the facts
justified the submission of any case
to the courts.
"As a matter of fact, the Truman
statement is merely an attempt to
curry favor with the labor bosses
who control the labor publicity to
which he is looking for help in the
election. 1t is significant that, al
though Mr. Findings letter was
written to him on August 10, it was
not released by him until after Will
liam Green had called on him and
the AFL had announced that it was
raising a million dollars to defeat
Senators and congressman who
voted for the Taft-Hartley law.
Fears Labor Domination.
This incident should only be
matter of concern to the public be-
cause it indicates that if Mr. Tru-
man should be reelected, the execu-
tive departments will be dominated
by labor unions, and any one who
urges action of any kind against
labor union, no matter what it does,
will be publicly attacked by the
President.
In this particular case, Congress
created special committee to fol-
low the enforcement of the Taft
Hartley law and concern itself with
the manner in which is is enforced.
That committee called the meeting
in question at my request as men,
ber Of the committee. But as mat
ter of fact. 1t is the duty of every
Congressman and Senator to inquire
whether the Executive Departments
are doing their duty, and we have
the power to impeach any executive
officer who fails to do his duty.
The Presidents action is in line
with his refusal to permit any in
vestigation by Congress of his files
relating to the loyalty of Communist
sympathizers. He doesn't want the
people or their representatives to
have anything to say about, or even
to know, what the Executive is do
ing in secret In this particular case,
I made no charge that the National
Labor Relations Board had neglect
ed its duty and only urged prompt
action if they thought there was a
proper case on the facts.
Cites Publishers Appeal.
when I returned to Washing
ton for the special session, I was
appealed to by the newspaper
publishers, including one of my most
distinguished constituents, Mr.. John
S. Knight, publisher of the Akron
Beacon Journal, to arrange a meet
ing for them with Mr.. Denham in
order that they might present the
facts and urge upon him prompt
action to enforce the injunction
already issued at his request against
I the ITU by the United States Dis
trict Court in Indianapolis. They
told me that in their opinion there
was clear evidence of violation of
this injunction but that no action
had yet been taken by the National
Labor Relations Board to enforce it
by contempt proceedings.
II took the matter up with the
special committee created by the
Taft-Hartley law, and asked Mr..
Tom Shroyer, the chief counsel of
that committee, to arrange the
meeting and stated that I would
accompany the publishers to the
meeting which is the usual practice.

Citizens Urge Age Ruling
For Nurses Be Lifted

The Dahlgren Terrace Citizens
Association last night unanimously
supported a resolution to include
nurses under the provisions of the
Social Security Act and asked that
the present age requirements for
nursing be lifted.
Mrs. Helen F. Fritz. president OF
the association, pointed out that the
country is short $4,000 nurses and
that the long hours, with little
time off, holds small appeal as a
profession to young women.
There would be more women who
would want to enter a nursing ca
reer, if they knew they would have
greater security in their old age,
she declared.
In another action, the group asked
the Recreation Department to fence
in completely the playground of the
Crosby Noyes School, at Tenth and
Franklin streets NE, for the safety
of the children.
At the same time, Fred Bachelor
was elected delegate to the FEEDER
alton of Citizens Associations, ano
Mrs. Louis Henley, to the Northeast
Council.
The meeting, the first since last
June, was held in the Noyes School

Four Big Meat Packers
Appear Ready 10 Fight
j. ). Dissolution Suit
BY the Assoeiofed Press

CHICAGO, Sept. 16.-The Ma
tons four major meat packers
appeared ready today to square
off for a finish fight with the
Government i'm its attempt to
dissolve them and reorganize
into IA separate and competing
companies.
Spokesman for three of the pack
ers named in the civil antitrust suit
filed in Federal Court yesterday de-
MED charges Of conspiring to mo-
nopolize the interstate trade of cat.
tie purchases and slaughters.
Higher prices to consumers re-
suited, the suit said, from the mo-
nopolistic practices by the packers
Swift & Co., Armour & Co., Cudahy
Packing Co. and Wilson 81 Co., Inc
Charges Called Nonsense.
The Government charge that the
companies suppressed competition
was described "just plain nonsense
by the American Meat Institute.
John Holmes, president of Swift
g. Co., said the suit was an attempt
to shift responsibility for infla-
tionary prices during the fall po-
Gtical campaign.
George A. Eastwood chairman OF
Armour &, Co., said similar charges
made against meat packers in the
past have always failed when taken
to court. Any claims that Armour's
operations or profits are in any
way responsible for present price
levels of livestock and meat are
without foundation.
A spokesman for Cudahy said
charges that his company attempted
to suppress competition were "en-
tirely false"
Meat is sold on highly COM
petitive basis by thousands of pack
ers throughout the country" he said
The laws of supply and demand
have free play and establish the
price OF, meat"
Control of Supply Claimed.
There. was no comment immedi-
ately from Wilson & Co. to the anti
trust suit.
The suit said the four packers
suppressed competition by: Control.
ling the supply of meat which each
company obtains for sale by: Con-
trolling the amount of livestock each
will purchase; utilizing uniform
cost formulas for arriving at selling
prices; selling at loading rather
than delivered" weights. and selling
at substantially identical prices anc
terms of sales.
In Washington, Attorney Genera
Clark said the suit is another in {
series of cases instituted by the
Justice Department in furtherance
of its program to free the produc-
ton ana sale of food and food prod.
ucts from monopolistic restraints
Mr.. Clark said the suit seeks t.
divide Swift and Armour each into
five separate companies and Gu
dahy and Wilson each would be
divided into two separate COM
panies.
Under the Justice Department.
split-up proposal the four packing
companies each would be dissolved
In the successor companies, the
stock, management and control OF
each new company would be
separated from each ether. Each
of the proposed new connpanie2
would include plants in various
sections of the country.
Evening star., 1948-09-16

which, subject to court review,
passes on the question whether the
act is being violated.
"The President in his letter says
that he does not expect to inter-
fere in the internal affairs of the
National Labor Relations Board. If
he finds that any branch of the
Executive Department is failing to
do its statutory or constitutional
duty, 1t is not only his right but
his duty to call them to task for
such failure.
The truth is that President Tru-
man. by the veto message accepted
so largely from the Communist
sympathlzer Lee Pressman, and by
other public statement. has en-
couraged the open defiance of the
law now engaged in by some of the
more radical labor bosses"
