called "appeasement" Of the Arabs
that he was to be subjected TO
greater criticism by Jews. There is
the story about the good Jewish
lady who became very wrOth with
her husband.
1T can't understand you," she
said. Yesterday, Charley came
here and he spoke to you about
this, and you told him. he is right.
Today, Jake came and said just
the opposite and you told him, he
is right. How can you speak that
way? You must be crazy"
"Maybe you are right, too" said
her husband.
So Magnes maybe was a little
right, too. He was right, shall
we say, in the sense that we Jews
have not always realized that one
way or another, we shall have to
learn to get along with the Arabs.
Many years ago, another great
man beloved of ZiOnism, Achad'
Ham, warned the ZiOnists that
they had not apprehended serious
" enough the Arab problem. Truth
is hardly ever all One-sided, just
as in Nature there is hardly any
thing of pure color. Things are not
all black and white.
Magnes, I think, had some ele-
ments of right in his attitude, but
he was wrong when he went so
far as to be willing to forego
the right of full Jewish immigra-
ton to Palestine. Once you con-
sent to restrict Jewish immigra-
ton to Palestine, you have no
more Jewish homeland. Palestine
just becomes another part of the
Diaspora. If we want to create
another Diaspora, we can buy land
much cheaper in Argentina or
some other South American land.
The tragic irony of it all was that
the Arabs seemed to respond to his
concessions less than the Jews. AS
far as know, his movement for
Ichud, for Arab-Jewish unity
counted only Jews among it's
supporters.
We think that the Jews did right
in rejecting the elder Magnes for
the younger Magnes who used to
speak elOquently of the glorious,
valorOus Maccabeans. But for all
that, we cannot fail to honor him
for his many fine qualities and for
shining devotion to his people
not often matched.

Nv Mrs. Nellie Maye Taylor

Hello there, here and every
where. Isn't it interesting living in
the Valley of the Sun, while the
Northern and Eastern part of the
country was melting and swelling
in the heat we were enjoying love-
ly days and enjoyable nights for
sleeping. Our thought for today,
Tolerance is the generosity of in;
telligent people" It is too bad they
don't know of these things in Caro-
lima, where they are or rather they
threw eggs ande tomatoes at the
Presidential candidate Wallace. AS
high Is food is can you imagine in
telligent people throwing it away,
and there are many hungry there,
as well as all over the country.
One thing can be said for Wallace
he isn't afraid. Racial discrimlna-
ton has been practiced so much
in the Air service, until when
plane crashes, none of us get the
least bit upset because we know no
Negroes are lost with them. That
is being selfish isn't it, we'll so IS
discrimination. In Los Angeles the
Pacific Telephone and Telegraph
Company are hiring Negroes in all
of it's departments. The Company
made statement, "that they nev-
'er have felt that segregation OF
their employees in any of their de-
partments was necessary. Isn't 1t
strange that a certain class OF
whites think that Negroes cannot
work with other races, and besides
they are only capable of working
with a broom and mop? I wonder
why Phoenix doesn't try some OF
the policies of the coast in that re-
spect. I am quite sure there are
people here with just little train
ing, can and will work just as will
ingly and harmoniously with 9TH
ers as any other race. There are
a lot of telephones here used by
Negroes and there are lots OF Ne
groes on the waiting list, I am for
one. A lady in New Orleans, pro-

MO Agrees S To
TockIe ERP
Monpower Job

Geneva (LPA)-The governing
body of the Int'l Labor Organiza-
ton agreed last week to tackle the
job of training European workers
in new skills. Requesting the lLO
to train workers unemployed IN
their own countries for jobs in
other Marshall plan nations was
the Organization for European
Economic Cooperation-the coor-
dinating committee of the partici-
pants in the European recovery
program.
This is the first real operating
assignment that the ILO has un-
dertaken in it's more than 25-year
history. Hitherto it has confined it
self to making studies Of labor leg
islation and conditions and formu-
lating policy recommendations for
it's member nations.
Active in the latest ILO session
was George p. Delaney, new inter
national affairs director of the
AFL. He replaces the late Frank
Fenton as US labor representative
on the governing body.

Wants wFTU To
Continue Active

Rome (LPA)-First positive in
dication that the pro-Communist
bloc in the World Federation of
Trade Unions will oppose the Bri-
tish Trades Union Congress- sug-
gestion that the WFTU keep quiet
in the. "cold war" came from Guis-
eppe Di Vittorio last week.
Di Vittorio, head of the Com
munist-led CGIL, largest Italian
union federation, said that he has
appointed a committee to draft a
resolution demanding that the
WFTU remain active during the
coming year "for the defense of
peace and the workers interests" "
This is a direct rebuff to the
British suggestion that the sharply
divided WFTU suspend its activi-
ties during 1919. The British, and
it is believed the American CIO as
well, fear that if the WFTU con-
tiniues to engage in political dis
cussions it will split.
Despite pressure from the CIO
and the TUC as well rs the unions
of most Of the smaller nations par
ticipating in the European recov-
cry program, the WFTU refused
last spring to call a conference to
coordinate union efforts for the
success OF the Marshall plan. This
refusal led to the calling of a con
ference of Marshall plan un-
ions-both WFTU members and
unions like the AFL which have
remained outside this body in
which the Communist dominated
labor organizations play ptomi-
nent role.
While increasingly channeling
their international relations thru
the Trade Union Conference on
European Recovery the TUG and
CIO have hoped that temporarily
silencing the WFTU might result
in ultimately preserving it as Il
meeting place of representatives of
workers Of all nations. If Di Wit
torio and other Communist lead
ers press for increased WFTU
activity now that hope may van
ish,

DeGaulle Against
Free Trade Unions

Paris (LPA)-Speaking in Paris
last week, Gen. Charles DeGaulle
told French workers that-if he
wins power - associations" of
management and labor will replace
free trade unions as the economic
organizations of French labor.
"The workers should no longer
be the instruments of capital, but
associates" DeGaulle said. Then
he went on to say that labor-man-
agement-capital re a t 10 n S h ips
should be defined in contracts, that
would give the association the
iuridical form of a corporation"
"These contracts would provide
for the basic compensation of the
workers, the basic interests of
capital and the basic rights of bus
iness management" the leader Of
the. Rally of the French People ex-
planned.
DeGaulle said that free unions
had been necessary to the workers
in he.paste struggles but COM
planned that now they are instru-
ments of political parties. Under
the cooperative structure which he
looks forward to unions would not
be permitted to support political
groups.
Altho the first part of the Gen
erals speech was devoted to an
attack upon the CGT, Frances
large Communicated federation,
he made it clear that the "funda-
mental change in trade unionism"
which he proposes applies as well
to the democratic, more-or-less SOC
ialist CGT-FO, and the liberal
Catholic Federation of Trade I'M
ions also.
Under DeGaulle's plans repre-
sentatives Of labor, management
and capital would be included in
industry and trade federations,
with the rights and duties" of
each group spelled out and sup
ported by the state. Additional pay,
over and above basic wage rates,
would be provided workers with
large families.
DeGaulle's speech was given at
a meeting of Action Ouvriere, the
workers, section of his RPF move
ment. 1t did not get the enthus-
iastic reception from his follow
ers to which the General is accus-
toned.

New York Teachers Guild To Admit
Sfudent-Teochers To Membership

New York City (ILNS) S).-Teach-
ers Guild, Local No. 2, American
Federation of Teachers, is launch
ing an important project, COM
pletely new in teacher unionism,
by extending membership in the
guild to student-teachers. Pointing
out that 90 percent of the teach
ing staff comes from student-teach-
er ranks, Henry T. Hillson, guild
vice president in charge of the
membership campaign, says that
Gould growth for the future must
base itself on the thousands of
young people now preparing for
and entering the teaching profess
ion. The guild, in turn, has great
advantages to offer student-teach-
ers."
Detailed plans are being made
by Charles Emil, chairman of the
guilds student-teacher committee,
to organize chapters at each of the
municipal colleges and then forge
these into an important arm of the
parent organization. Emil says:
"Our prospective teachers should
identify themselves with their pro
fession as soon as possible. They
must realize the need for joining
the great labor organization of over
100000 workers affiliated with
the American Federation of Labor
which has done so much for the
cause Of public education and
teacher rights. The guild is prepar
ed to offer the new members many
benefits. Guild administrators and
teachers will aid them in orienta-
tion to the school system. Expert
advice will be made available in
preparing the incoming teachers
for examinations"
Student teachers will have all
privileges Of guild membership
other than voting and this will be
automatically granted on receipt Of
any teaching license in accordance
with charter provisions. The new
members will attend all guild func-
tions and meetings and will have
all other guild privileges. Member
ship fees will be purely nominal.
