A study of the industrial history of the United States as written in the school textbooks and in the works of the popular novests and playwrights (not to mention newspapers and magazines) leave one impression
 This impression Unacceptable without labor movement history) is that this great nation of ours was built by such men as Gould (the fur trader), Vanderbilt, Morgan, Rockefeller Car negle, Hill, Hartman, Judge Gary and the many other promoters whose only gamble was gamble of money.
 These are the people about whom the wage earners' children are taught. In fact, unless one looks farther than the stories of the heroes that the school boards will buy and the papers and magazines will print, he will grow to middle age before he wonders why little or no credit is given to the fellow with the axe the hammer, the shovel the trowel, the saw, the file, the chisel and the other tools that mankind has made and used tc build the world
 Perhaps it would be disastrous if all wage

Ten Democrat
 Senators Urge 75c Pay Floor

Washington (LPA)-An impressive array of Democratic Senators last week introduced a bill to bring up to date the Fair Labor Standards Act.
 Led by Sen. Ebert Thomas O., Utah), the group hopes to press for action by the Senate Labor Commit tee ''to change this law from his- toricaI landmark to a living real ity." Others who sponsor the meas ure are Senators Chavez (N.M.), Green (R. I.), Magnusson (Wash.), McCrath (R. I.), Murray (Mont.) :, Myers (Pa.), Pepper (Fla.), Fay Tor Qda.), and Wagner (N. Y.).
 The bill would raise the minimum wage to 75e an hour from the present 40f level. "The passage of years, a war, and resulting imitation have com bined to render the 40f minimum com pletely meaningless" Thomas asserted.
 Pointing out that lover half of our working population is still excluded from the benefits of the Act, "Thomas has included in the bill a proposal to broaden the coverage of the minimum wage and overtime provisions by ex- tending these, provisions to workers engaged in any activity affecting inter state or foreign commerce.
 In addition, another section is in- tended to abolish the exploitation of children in industry or indus trialized agriculture, and still an- other part extends the benefits of the law to workers in industrialized agriculture.

Free Speech Is What N.L.R.B. Believes It Is.

The fact that an employer told his employees that he disliked the union, and at the same time promised them increased benefits if they voted against it in an election, is considered two separate items by the NLRB in a re- cent decision involving the Bailey Co. and Local 1924, Retail Clerks Int1 Assn. (AFL).
 Dealing with the speeches and the leaflets Gin which the employer said he disliked the union) as sepa- rate items, the board held them to be permissible conduct under the free speech rule. On the other hand the promises of benefits were held violations of the law.
 Throwing. out the old rule that an employers whole course of conduct must be considered when charges are brought against him, the board in ef- feet interprets the Taft-Hartley law to mean that as long as the violations come under free speech they are legal.
 An employer can now say any thing he likes, but he can't bribe or threaten his employees. In other words the board is now splitting an employers conduct into several parts, ruling on each separately.
 Maybe the board members have been seeing too many movies dealing with split personality.
 PLAIN TALK
 Many a union organizer has walked away from an NLRB office with the feeling that the only type of case the board will take is one where the em- ployer called in the employe, fired him and then gave him sworn afi- davit stating: "You are being dis charged because of your union activ- ity."
 Employers don't usually cooper ate that we'll. But in the Chamber lain Co. case involving Local l46, Hotel X Restaurant Employees (AFL), at Waterloo, Ia., the em- ployer came pretty close to doing just this. He told his employees that if the union came in he would shut down the plant and discharge them all.
 Faced with the problem as to whether this was free speech the NLRB decided that it was not, and, on the contrary, constituted a threat against the employees.
 Okay, boys. You know what you have to look for now.
The union times., 1948-02-21

earners awoke simultaneously to their real value in society and to the power that they would have if they were welded into united and disciplined group. i>s
 The real strength of the forces of reaction in democratic society lies with the wage earner who accepts the advantages of today as if they had all ways existed and who, if he does recognize that progress has been made credits it to any cause except the constant agitation of organized labor
 The Tafts, Hartleys and Balls are elected by wage earners who still believe that there are some magic rules that can be established whereby the worker will be able to cope with organized forces (which he must meet every way he turns) without having to be organized himself.
 Until the wage earner learns to look to his own historic past instead of taking the advice of the forces in society that depend upon the wealth pro- duced by his brain, skill and muscle for their ex- stence, the advantage of the working class will be slow and spotty (with setbacks such as are now occurring the rule rather than the excepton)
 Meanwhile, the number of workers who have cut their wisdom teeth will continue to increase and, despite the efforts of those who would hold us back the labor movement will go on because there will always be- in the hearts of men, the divine spark that impels them to face whatever odds there be i'll the fight against injustice

Rourke Raps Saxon Report
 On Sales Tax

Sharply criticizing Dr. O. Glenn SaxOn's recommendation with re- spect to the sales and use tax as re- actionary, Joseph M. ROurke, sec retary-treasurer of the Connecticut Federation of Labor, declared last week that elimination of present exemptions would add to the bur- dens of low-income families in the state.
 If Dr. Saxon's tax plan which he calls ideal were adopted, food which at present is the largest item in the workers budget would also be sub- ject to the sales tax. A more unfair plan could not be devised.
 Tt is, of course, ideal as a means of soaking the poor"
 Criticizing the Yale economists statement that a state income tax would mean either ''prohibitive'' rates or fall ''most heavily upon in- comes of $3,OOO or Iess,'' the C. F.. of L. leader said: ''With all due re- spect to the professor, he is talking through his hat. It is evident that he did not examine the state in- come tax program advocated by or ganized labor before the State Finance Committee.
 Our proposal was fair and equit- able; pr. Saxon's is not. His tax plan would have the effect of re1iev- ing our well-to-do taxpayers and shifting the tax burden further upon the sagging shoulders of the poor"

Conn. Test Of Taft-Hartley Act Scheduled Soon

U. s. Attorney Adrian w. Maher will soon present the first Connecticut test case of the political contribution provision of the Taft-Hartley labor law it was revealed yesterday. Maher, about two weeks ago, said after con- ference in Washington, that he ex- pected to bring criminal proceedings against the Connecticut Federation of Labor, AFL, sometime this month, and Justice Department official con frmed the statement yesterday in Washington.
 The case will go before either U. 5. District Judge Carroll C. Hincks in New Haven or Judge J. Joseph Smith in Hartford. It will involve. political advertising in a Hartford newspaper and over a New Britain radio station calling for the defeat of all Connecti- cut congressman who voted for the law.
 The advertising by the union was admittedly move to have the case brought to court. Phillip Murray and the CIO were indicted last week by a Washington grand jury, but Maher's case, if it goes as scheduled, will get to court first.
