Red Cross to Fill
Yule Bags for Vets

Production committee of the
American Red Cross has been
asked to contribute filled Christ
mas bags for the neuro-psychia-
trio ward at Veterans Hospital at
Chillicothe.
The bags have been made and
anyone who cares to contribute
money to help fill them is asked
by the Red Cross to do so. Phone
either Mrs. tWalter Weidman,
1891, or Mrs. Hubert Scott, 1851.
Each bag must have identical
contents and packed in uniform
manner; therefore the Red Cross
must fill them from articles or
money contributed for the pur-
pose. The bags must be COM
pleted and shipped by Dec. lG, so
contributions should be made at
once.

We Could Make Such
Beautiful Music

Washington LPA)-Two mu-
sicians discussed little bit Of
harmony at the White House
last week, according to James c.
Petrillo, president of the Ameri-
can Federation of Musicians
AFL. President Truman accept
ed an invitation from Petrillo to
attend free symphony concert
sponsored by the AIM on May
25.
The musicians head told the
President that he would play the
trumpet if Truman would accom-
pany him on the piano. He said
that they should play "The Ros-
ary", first piece he ever played
on the trumpet given him by
welfare worker Jane Adams
which started him on his career.
The concert is one of the free
series given by the AIM from a
royalty fund on records and
transcriptions. Income of the
fund has been stopped by the
Taft-Hartley Act.

keenan,, Is Named
Director BY AFL

Milwaukee (LPA) = The AFL
executive council last week named
Joseph j. keenan, director of its po-
litical arm, Labor's League for Po-
litical Education. keenan,, the sec
retary of the Chicago Federation
of Labor, has been assistant direc-
tor of LLPE since its establish
ment, and has succeeded in getting
cooperation of virtually all AFL af-
| lfiliates in the work of LLPE.
George Harrison, president of the
Brotherhood of Railway Clerks was
chosen chairman of the League po-
litical committee which has the fl
nal say on who LLPE will endorse
in the November elections.
AFL President William Green
announced that the AFL will call
upon the conventions of both major
parties to include in their plat
forms a pledge that the Taft-Hart-
ley law will be repealed. ,.r-
The executive council is also
drafting planks on social security
Legislation and economic controls,
for submission to both the Republi-
can and Democratic conventions.
At the end of the week the coun-
ell met with Economic Cooperation
Administrator Paul Hoffman who
flew from Washington to Milwau-
kee to confer with the AFL leaders
on labor representation in ECA and
on the public advisory committee.
Council members were joined by
the other 15 members of LLPE's
administrative committee in a dis
cussion of political campaign plans.
They are believed to have studied
the voting records of a number of
Congressman who are seeking re-
election.
Key to the AFL's attitude to-
wards any candidate will be his
position on the Taft Hartley law.
Before the council adjourns it will
draft statement outlining the eff
fects of the union-baiting law on
AFL unions.
Green remarked that the AFL
intends to continue its non-parti-
san policy, and will not endorse any
ticket as a whole. No Presidential
is believed likely to get
an outright endorsement from
LLPE.
Council members and other AFL
officials present for the meeting
participated in the Inauguration of
the Union Industries show that is
being held in Milwaukee.

Publishers Wife
Tells Off House
Speaker Martin

Washington UPA)-When Ag-
mes Meyer, wife Of the publisher of
the Washington Post, gets her ire
up about an injustice, she is a for
midable opponent indeed. And this
week she's after the scalp Of House
Speaker Joe Martin (R., Mass.).
Mrs. Meyer, who often receives
a byline as "Post reporter" when
she covers social welfare topics,
was in a delegation from 20 ma
tiOnal organizations which went to
Martin last week to urge enactment
in this session Of the federal aid to
education bill already approved by
the Senate. The bill would appro-
pirate S300,0O0,00O a year to the
states to equalize basic educational
opportunity for all children.
"He tells everybody the same
thing" she reported to a Howard
University conference on human
rights. "Martin thinks there are en-
ough votes to pass the bill in the
House. He is for it, he says. But
we are already spending too much
money. We can't afford it,"
"How does Mr.. Martin think It
will sit with the voters" she asked,
when he tells them that with bill
lions for Europe and for armaments
we can't afford three hundred mil
lions to educate our own children
properly and give their teachers a
living wage?"
She charged the House Speak
er with arbitrary disregard to the
national welfare. 1t is a situation
as tragic as it is dangerous for the
party. For the social
consciousness displayed by the Sen
ate Republicans will not counteract
the impression Of social Indifference
that is being made in the House"
A House Labor Subcommittee
headed by Rep. Edward o. Nc
Cowen (R., Ohio) held extensive
hearings and approved the bill ear
ly in this session. Ever since, Mrs.
Meyer pointed out, it has been bot
tied up by the full Labor Commit
tee because the Republican ma
jority leaders will not give it a
green light"

Building Trades
In Penno. Vote
For Union Shop

Washington, D. c. (ILNS)-Am-
erican Federation of Labor build
ing workers in the Pittsburgh area
have voted overwhelmingly for the
union shop, in the first such cleo
tiOn under the Taft-Hartley Act in
the building trades. The result is
seen here as an augury Of similar
results in building trades elections
in every section of the country.
The poll, conducted by the Ma
tional Labor Relations Board, COW
cred more than $500 workers em-
ployed on SO construction jobs in
33 counties of Western Pennsyl-
vania.
Under the Taft Hartley law a
Of workers must favor
union shop before the workers can
demand it in collective bargaining.
An employer, under the union shop
can hire any one he
pleases but the workers must join
the union within 80 days.
The NLRB said the balloting
showed the following favorable
votes; Laborers, ,136 to 203; team
sters, 1876 to 20; carpenters, 352
to 10; operating engineers, 489 to
36. and piledrivers, So to 0.
