TIL LAW DANGERS I.INCER ON

When the United States Supreme Court re-
Gently ruled that publication by a Union news
paper of facts and advice concerning candi-
dates for federal office does not violate the
Taft Hartley Act, and when the majority OF
the court indicated it believed the act unconsti-
tutional, without declaring it so, it permitted
the worst dangers in the law to linger on. lhese
dangers may have far reaching effects, as lndi-
Gated by the decision last week Of a federal
court in Connecticut.
In the Connecticut case a Union published
an advertisement in a daily newspaper de-
nouncing the Taft-Hartley Act, its sponsors,
Taft and Hartley. and a Connecticut congress
man who voted for it. Clearly. under the Bill
of Rights. the Union had a right to speak its
piece. That is free speech. guaranteed to all
Americans by our constitution. Yet, the Con-
~necticut court ruled that inasmuch as the Union
spent its money in the exercise of its right of
free speech, it had violated the law. An
indictment against the Union was sustained.
If that kind of legal reasoning doesn't APP
proach the idiotic. then there are no bounds Of
reason which a judge must recognize. How
under the sun can an individual or a Union take
advantage Of modern methods Of free speech
without spending money? The Connecticut
judges decision would rule the Unions off the
air, if they buy time to tell their members and
the public what they think about the records
of candidates for Congress. Surely that is an
outright denial of free speech; it is a blow at
the Bill Of Rights, and at American liberties. 1t
is encouragement of corrupt politics and fraud
ulent elections, because only when we have the
maximum Of free speech can the public be in
formed about the candidates. When the work
ing people are denied the right to speak out,
even if that costs money, they are no longer
free and elections cannot be guarded from cor
%ruption.
The strangest fact in this crazy muddle is
that both Taft and Hartley pretended they
were interested in pure and uncorruptible cleo
tons when they urged their law upon Congress.
Out of the Connecticut case undoubtedly
will come another appeal to the United States

SUPPORTING SKY HIGH PRICES

The government, says an eastern economist,
is buving two million bushels of wheat a day to
keep prices up. Corn and cotton will be next.
and then potatoes. We. the taxpayers, put up
the money for our government to buy grain
and potatoes and hold them off the market, or
destroy them, so that we will have to keep right
on paying high prices. The same politicians
who fastened that scheme on the working peo-
pie with an iron-bound federal law refused to
raise minimum wages for working people, and
robbed more than a million toilers of their So
cial security rights.
Montana labor news., 1948-08-26
BARE FACTS AND FIGURES

Figures compiled by the federal government
agencies which collect facts and statistics, show
what has happened to the working man pay
check in the last eight years. For instance:
a married man with two children may have re-
ceived SIPS an hour in 1910. If he got the
average wage increases since then. he received
So an hour in March. 1913. But, that's only
half of the picture. After taxes and initiation
AIRY price gouges are taken out his 1913 wage
rate. its actual purchasing power sinks to
Sl.O9. Actually, he has taken a wage cut.
Montana labor news., 1948-08-26

Supreme Court, and perhaps we may expect a
fortnight decision this time.
Freedom of speech is an American, demo-
cratic ideal. 1t is deeply planted in the phi
losophv and ideals Of our American way of
life. If the high courts now decide that the
RIl Of RIGHTS is meaningless, if the nine judges
upset the Constitution, the people will simply
have to start all over again in their drive for
freedom. After all, American liberties and our
Bill Of Rights are more important than even
the judges themselves to the future welfare OF
our country.

WATCH YOUR CANDIDATES

The Supreme Court decision has placed our
trade union press in the front rank Of labor's
battle of 1948. 1t becomes the prime and
pressing business of the newspapers that are
being published, frequently at substantial sac
rifice, by our international trade unions and
by many of the city central and state labor
bodies to devote an ever increasing part of
their space to political activity until November.
lncessantly-until election day-the labor
press will urge its readers to keep a close watch
on the record and the pledges Of every con-
gressional candidate-to screen them on the
most important issues Of the campaign and to
Judge their fitness for election or reelection
on the basis Of their economic and political al
legiances and actions.
Taft repeats the lie that Unions are run by
small minorities. Has he ever heard of a stock
holder being fined for failing to attend a cor
poration 0n%eeting?

THE ROAD
TO HEALTH
By Louis T.. Wright, M. D.

My boyhood friend, DR.. Jim
Winslow, who now lives in an
other state, came to see me re-
Gently. We hadn't met in years
and we talked over our school days
before we got around to discuss
ing our work. Then DR.. Winslow
told me a story about the cam
paing in his town to find all Gun
known" cases of tuberculosis, or
those not reported to the health
authorities.
The campaign was a community
wide chest x-ray survey which
every adult was urged to have a
free chest x-ray to check his
lungs. In less than a month, DR..
Winslow said, most of the people
in the community hadl been X
rayed.
One evening during the cam
paign, while he was walking down
the street, he ran into 20-year-old
Joan Moore whom he had recently
treated for a broken ankle. He
had found Joan to be an intelli-
gent, alert young woman. She told
him he had done a "infe job" on
her ankle and that it never both
cred her. AS they talked, Joan
asked the doctor if he were "as
busy as ever"

you had your chest xzray?"
Joan laughed. 81 don't need it,
doctor. First of all, I've been busy
and, besides, l have no symptoms
of tuberculosis-I'm not thin or
tired and | don't have a cough"
"Joan, the x-ray takes but a
few moments-I'm sure you could
spare that. And it can detect tu-
berculosis even before there r
any of those outward symptoms
you mentioned. That's it's great ad-
vantage . 1t shows up tuberculo-

Louis Will Fight Suitable Opponent
For A 'Half-Million' Guarantee

Chicago, Dec. 6 -(H0-His
fans, about "tWo or three to one,
want Joe Louis to retire as un-
defeated heavyweight champion.
But the Brown Bomber will put
his title on the line next sum-
mer if suitable opponent is
found and if ha million dollar
purse is guaranteed him.
Louis, in training for his six
round exhibition against Lilly
Conn here Friday night, seems
pretty uncertain about who can
be cassed as suitable opponent.
But on the subject of money :,
he is quite specific.
Explains Joe:
81 could fight exhibitions for
two more years if I wanted. You
get more money fighting exhibi-
tions. In big fight, it costs
about 100000 just for training,
and then you've got to pay your
manager.
"This way all you pay is your
trainer. If they get a boy that's
going to draw some money, I'll
fight, if the public thinks the
boys got a chance.
"But, if 1 can't get at least
a half-million dollars, what's the
use? Over a period of a year,
I'd make as much and more out
of exhibitions after taxes and eX-
penses come out of the other"
Some folks encourage him to
keep on fighting, Louis said, but
"the real older type, the serious
type, people SIS and 60, don't want
me to fight.
"They say what an honor it is
to retire undefeated. In all the
letters I get, about two or three
to one want me to retire"
Trainer Nanny Seamon, how
ever, thinks Joe's Loyalty" to
Mike Jacobs, the New York fis-
tic major domo, may get him
back in the ring for title de-
fense next June.
"Joe personally thinks he owes
Mike Jacobs a fight or two, !"
said Seamon.

Patton Gets
Credit For

New Yok, Dec. 6-(P)-It
took a hurried special committee
meeting to do it, but Mel Patton
was credited today with a 9.3
seconds 100-yard dash, the
worlds fastest.
After first rejecting the appli-
cation, the Amateur Athletic un-
ion approved the Southern Cali
fornia speedster's mark as an
American record yesterday
shortly before closing its annual
convention.
It's the fastest time ever turned
in for the 100 under acceptable
conditions. Patton, the Olympic
200-meter champion, turned in tn
mark last May Is at Fresno Calf.
The AAU records committee
approved seven new outdoor
track and field records Saturday
but when Patton's sprint was
brought up the group said it
didn't have sufficient evidence to
support it.
Harold Berliner, an official of
the Pacific Association, read "a
bout this in the Sunday papers
and got busy. He had the neces-
sary information, but hadn't cal
led to the earlier session.
A special meeting of the rec
ords committee was called and
the group was shown reports that
of the three official timers two
caught Patton in 9.3 and the
other in 9.4. Also one of the al
ternate timers clocked the South
ern Cal star in 9,3 while the
other had 9.4.
The committee approved the
record and the convention sane
toned it. Previously Patton shar-
ed the American record of 9.4
with Americans Frank Wykoff,
Jesse Owens and Clyde Jeffrey
and D. ]. Joubert of South
Africa.
