fled so that unions would not be
forced to go through the cumber-
some procedure too frequently.
Ball went part of the way with
the unions indictment of the slow
ness of NLRB procedure, but had
no suggestions to offer as to how
it can be speeded up.
Jacobs called the Senator's at
tention to the refusal of the board
in a number Of Southern states to
conduct union shop elections be-
cause of state laws banning union
security. He pointed out that this
is extremely high-handed since the
constitutionality of these state
laws has not been tested.
In reply to President Valente's
complaint that union officers, but
not employers are required to sign
non-Communist affidavits Ball said
the only reason for the one-sided-
ness of the law was the Congress
belief that no employers are Com
munists. "But", said the Senator,
after reading some of the paid
ads in the newspapers Pm not so
sure any more. Maybe we ought to
make them sign too.
Ball concluded the interview by
inviting the union to submit speci-
fic complaints to the Joint Commit
tee and to testify at the hearings
1t will conduct this summer on the
operation of Taft-Hartley. He said
that it is too early to Judge the
law. No indication came from the
Senator that his committee already
had in print a report lauding Taft
Hartley, written without consulta-
ton with "a single labor spokes-
man.

Pay For Committee
Work Draws Ire
OF Scribe From 86

We were glad to see few new
faces at our last meeting when
matters of grave Importance were
up for discussion With the proper
cooperation our problems can be
settled satisfactorily. Without it,
some may linger on until they reach
the danger stage.
The piece work problem gained
momentum at the Laughlin plants
where a tentative plan has been
worked out with the understand
ing that the firm will not increase
the cost of production in the ware
house, which could only mean the
elimination Of help or possibly
shorter hours. With the coopera-
ton we are receiving from head
quarters we are certain not to go
wrong this time.
For the first time in the writer's
memory, some few members have
been paid for doing committee
work while the work involved has
not caused them to loose any time
from their job. If this practice con-
tinues it will not be long before
our treasury gets so low we will
be unable to meet demands which
are essential.
Some of our members are becom-
ing aggressive because of certain
laws which they do not understand
or misinterpret.
The phrase, "United We Stand"
should be brought before all of US
at this time instead of pickering
for ways to get paid for such
work which the oldtimers were
glad to spend endless hours of
their time for the benefit of the
trade. We should not overlook the
work of these older members for
we are receiving the benefit of
their unpaid labor.-O.C. Sc.

The UTW officials also told Ball
that if unions are to be put to the
trouble of NLRB-conducted union
shop elections at least they should
be compensated by a requirement
that employers grant the union
shop once the workers voted for it.
The Balls comment that all en-
ployers have, UTW's Southern Rep
resentative Joseph Jacobs replied
that in his jurisdiction alone there
have been three refusals.
The only point which Ball con-
ceded was UTW's request that
there be Qualification of the laws

Miners Appeal To
Public Conscience
On Pension Denial

Washington (LPA)-An appeal
to the conscience of the nation TO
understand the position of the
United Mine Workers of America
was made last week by UNIV
President John L. Lewis.
During the past year" he said,
"and throughout the hard winter
which has afflicted the nation, our
membership has continued Loyalty
and with a sense Of public duty to
break all records in the product
ton of coal. This service increased
the profits of the coal companies
and should have won the respect
for contract and some considera-
tion for human values; but instead
has made them contemptuous of
their contractual and moral obli-
cations"
Lewis, looking tanned and heal
thy after his Florida vacation, like
wise gave a crowded press confer
ence copies of letter to all btu
minous coal miners. While not a
strike notice, both the letter to
UNIV members and the appeal to
the public are seen here as another
step by the union to force the op-
orators to comply with the last con-
tract.
The letter to members asserted:
"For eight months the bitumin-
Gus coal operators, through their
trustee, Ezra Van Horn of Cleve-
land, Ohio, have dishonored the
1947 wage agreement and default
under its provisions affecting the
welfare fund. This has been pos
sible because of the provisions of
the hateful and oppressive Taft
slave law affecting welfare funds,
Intentionally and maliciously in
serted by Robert Taft Of Ohio.
"As a result of the Taft slave
act, the coal operators trustee is
given veto power and has refused
to permit the activation or opera
ton of the Fund. Murray of New
York, who was a third trustee of
this Fund, has resigned rather than
side with the Mineworkers. No pay
ments of any character have been
made to any beneficiary or to any
one else from the welfare fund set
up under the 1947 agreement"
A total of S29,494,032 is now
'1ying unused in the banks" Lewis
pointed out. While the UNIV is
to have made an initial
proposal for a $1OO-a-month pen
sion payment, Lewis said that the
operators representative had never
made any counter-proposal.
Charged Lewis: "The destitu- /
ton of the aged, the extremity of
the sick and injured and the pow
erty of orphans and widows are
things which concern them not.
l947 was the most financially pro-
fitable year in the history of the
coal industry, and yet the mil
ionaire coal operators of this coun-
try, with the aid of Robert Taft
and his slave statute, are success
FULLY preventing the distribution of
his location fund, which is de-
signed only to abate human mis-
cry"
Lewis denied the operators
.harges that the UNIV pension
would require a levy of
This he said, is fantastic
md untrue" He countered with
Social Security Board estimates
hat the UNIV plan would cost
lbout $15,0O0,000 for the first year.

Friend to Friend

THE letters in the New Testa-
l. ment are of various kinds. The
letter to the Philippians from Paul
was written, from prison, to some
of his best friends. Recently they
had sent him not only money but
a man named Epaphroditus to stay
with Paul and help him, Paul being
in constant bad health. But Epa-
phroditus himself had fallen i'll, and
when he grew better he was still
homesick. \
Paul, generous as always, decid-
ed to send his sick friend home to
convalesce, and by his hand sent
the letter which the ohDippian
church loved, saved and copied. so
that it eventually made Its way
into the New Testament collection.
There is some high theology
In the letter; but there is also
some warm human friendship,
and some Of the best advice
Paul ever gave. 1t is In this
letter we discover Paul's secret
of happiness. I have learned
the wrOte) in whatsoever state
I am, therein to be content.

enough Of about dozen OF his let-
ters to save them and copy them
and file them with some others and
pass them around. And so we got
more than third of our New Testa-
ment, and perhaps good deal more
than a third of our theology.
Yesterday in TelevisiOn
THESE letters that have come
l. down to us from so long ago are
not only keenly interesting, they
are immensely valuable. An honest
informal letter is like an open win
dow. We see into the writer's mind
and life, we see the life OF his
times. Any historian feels lucky
when he lights on a packet OF old
letters. Here is yesterday in tele-
vision.
The letters of the New Testa-
ment, especially Paul's, are not
propaganda literature. Paul
was not writing for publication
or for posterity. He would be
bothered by problem; he
would think and pray about 1t,
and then he would sit down and
write about 1t.
However trivial the problem
might seem, such as local church
quarrel, Paul never wrote trivially
about it. He would pour out his
mind on papyrus, usually debating
his letters to secretary and some
times so fast that the secretary OBJ
viously had a hard time keeping up.
If you want to know how an Apos-
ties mind worked, here it is. II
you want to know how an inspired
religious genius, one OF the great
of all time, planned and grieved
and hoped and rejoiced, read these
letters. Further, these letters tele-
wise for us the early. Christian

heart, the seed of the great church
that has grown up through the CEN

Electric and Mechanical Toys

Electric toys should never be
handled with wet hands. If a young
ster has been playing in the rain
or snow, he should put on dry cloth
ing before playing with electric
toys. A heavy mitten worn by
child when using play electric
iron or stove will help prevent hand
burns. All electric toys should be
of approved design and construc-
ton such as those bearing the label

DAUL knew he would not live for
ever on this planet and could not
live everywhere. So he spent much
effort training helpers and success
sors. Some of these disappointed
him sorely; but he was never dis

His letters to Timothy are per-
